Rethinking Investment Banking from a bicycle. Monday, 17 March 2014. A cycling tour and the bankruptcy that might not have been . . . Sunday was something new for me; a team time trial. Two teams of four and one team of three did a 14.4km time trial on rolling country east of Orange near the airport. I highly recommend the format we used for the weekend, though maybe without the Friday and Saturday night wine extravaganza? 8220;Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it.”. Probably the one thin...

Rethinking Investment Banking from a bicycle. Monday, 29 September 2014. A not so #disruptive lunch? Disintermediation, integration and maintaining a cadre of thinkers in a changing world. Economic numbers in Australia are of concern and likely to point to a downturn in the next 18months. Given this the challenge for Hills is to decide whether to buy bolt-on businesses now or wait for the economic cycle to reduce the entry cost of such acquisitions. Focus on security and health as these sectors are growi...

Rethinking Investment Banking from a bicycle. Monday, 28 April 2014. Imagine you wake up and your business is without a Chairman, CEO and COO for the first time in 32 years. In fact the Chairman/CEO had started with the company in 1947. What do you, as the inheritor do? This is exactly what happened to the widow of Bordeaux wine doyen Thierry Manoncourt who passed away in 2010. Will the changes at Figeac see the estate elevated once more? Thursday, 10 April 2014. The theory here in Australia is that most...

Rethinking Investment Banking from a bicycle. Tuesday, 9 June 2015. Zen and the art of survival. How to keep your head at Deutsche Bank when the axe falls. How do you survive a revolution? Keep your head down and say nothing? Make yourself the center of things and be indispensable to the incoming regime? Perhaps pile in with the mob and storm the Bastille in the hope that you're going to end up on the right side of things? If you can keep your head when all about you. If— Rudyard Kipling). It may sound s...

Rethinking Investment Banking from a bicycle. Monday, 12 January 2015. New beginnings and old stories . . . .

Rethinking Investment Banking from a bicycle. Tuesday, 26 August 2014. BBY Disruptive Lunch . . . Get cash back, watch your business and hurt some people. Three companies presented at the latest of BBY's Disruptive Lunch series last Thursday. Aa a bonus we also got to hear from Jennifer McFarlane, a long time adviser to new technology start-ups (natural resources, pharma) who provided a nice narrative of her latest project. How viewer friendly is it? What liability does the company have for injuries?
