Shareholders' conflicts

"In the process of doing business sometimes conflicts between enterprises’ shareholders arise. In our experience this is usually because one shareholder is playing a more active role in management, and thus realising his plans for the business, which differ from those of the other shareholders... At this conference you will hear how investment companies can help shareholders to resolve such conflicts.”

Tatiana Baskina, General Director, BigFish

In search of talent
“Working with family offices is a very specific task, and requires first and foremost a heightened level of confidentiality and a great deal of trust in relations between employees and partners. In the past, when entrepreneurs set up a family office they used to mainly invite their relatives to work for them, or people who they were close to and trusted. Nowadays, for several reasons, it is necessary to attract market professionals to work in a family office. Hear more during the Family office session at the conference!"

Alexander Smyslov, Director, Bordeaux + Fund Ltd.

Investing in wine
As the Financial Times put it recently “….with concerns over rising inflation, investors will be drawn to physical assets such as wine” (June 2011). The fine wine market is now worth $4-5 billion annually, from a figure of $1 billion in 2004. Reflecting this growth, the Liv-ex 100 Index has seen a compound annual growth rate of around 15% since its launch. (Liv-ex.com). You can hear more about investing in wine by joining session 7 on "Alternative Assets" during this conference on 19 April 2012
