  • Warren Buffett's Wild Ride at Salomon (Fortune, 1997)
    Warren Buffett's Wild Ride at Salomon (Fortune, 1997) Warren Buffett, interim chairman of Solomon Brothers, Inc., gestures during testimony before a House Commerce subcommittee on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., Sept. 5, 1991. Photograph by Marcy Nighswander — AP Photos By CAROL J. LOOMIS October 27, 1997 As Sanford I. Weill, 64, the dealmaking CEO of Travelers Group, steps up to his biggest acquisition ever—the purchase of Salomon Inc. for $9 billion—a famous Wall Street figure, Warren E.Buffett, 67, steps out of Salomon. His days there began almost precisely a decade ago, in the early fall of 1987, when his company, Berkshire Hathaway, became Salomon‘s largest shareholder and he moved in as a director. But that was training-wheels stuff, nothing to the high- wire unicycle act that came later: Buffett was physically, emotionally, and really at Salomon for nine months in 1991 and 1992, when the firm’s trading illegalities created a giant sucking sound that brought him in to run the place. Though much has been written about Buffett and Salomon, a lot of what you will read here will be new. I have been a friend of Buffett‘s for about 30 years and have long been a shareholder of Berkshire (though never a shareholder of Salomon). As a friend, I do some editing every year on Buffett‘s well-known annual report, and we have for eons talked about collaborating on a book about his business life. All this has given me many opportunities to learn Buffett‘s thinking. Some of what I’ve gleaned has ended up in FORTUNE stories that I wrote, most especially in an April 11, 1988, article, “The Inside Story of Warren Buffett,” and in an accompanying box, “The Wisdom of Salomon?” But much of what I learned about Buffett‘s experiences at Salomon in 1991 was confidential, embargoed by him because Salomon was both struggling to regain its footing and dealing with big legal problems.

  • Media Release
    Australian High Commission, Kuala Lumpur MEDIA RELEASE 15 DECEMBER 2017 Deepening Australia’s engagement with the Muslim world – visit to Malaysia by Australia’s Special Envoy to the OIC, Mr Ahmed Fahour AO Australia’s Special Envoy to the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Mr Ahmed Fahour AO, visited Malaysia for a one-day official visit yesterday. Mr Fahour called on Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, Dato’ Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki, to discuss Australia’s engagement with the OIC, Islamic banking and finance, as well as key challenges facing the Muslim world. They also shared experiences on countering violent extremism. Mr Fahour was treated to a tour and prayers at Masjid Negara with the Grand Imam, Tan Sri Syaikh Ismail Muhammad. He also had lunch with local experts and commentators, to exchange views on trends in Islam in Australia and Malaysia. A highlight for Mr Fahour was a visit to the “Faith, Fashion, Fusion: Muslim Women’s Style in Australia” exhibition at the Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia, which is being displayed for the first time internationally with the support of the Australian Government and Lendlease Malaysia. Developed by the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences in Sydney, “Faith, Fashion Fusion” explores the experiences and achievements of Australian Muslim women and how they express their faith through fashion. It also displays Australia’s growing modest fashion market and the work of a new generation of Muslim designers and entrepreneurs. Mr Fahour, who is also the Patron of the Islamic Museum of Australia said, “The exhibition showcases the diversity of Australia’s Muslim communities and the significant contribution they make to Australia’s contemporary, multicultural society.” Mr Fahour welcomed these efforts that help to build understanding and respect between the Islamic community and other faiths and cultures.

  • Commercial Banks and the Capital Markets
    Size Matters: Commercial Banks and the Capital Markets CHARLES K. WHITEHEAD* The conventional story is that the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act broke down the Glass–Steagall Act’s wall separating commercial and investment banking in 1999, increasing risky business activities by commercial banks and precipitating the 2007 financial crisis. But the conventional story is only one-half complete. What it omits is the effect of change in commercial bank regulation on financial firms other than the commercial banks. After all, it was the failure of Lehman Brothers—an investment bank, not a commercial bank—that sparked the meltdown. This Article provides the rest of the story. The basic premise is straightforward: By 1999, the Glass–Steagall Act’s original purpose— to protect commercial banks from the capital markets—had reversed. Instead, its main function had become protecting the capital markets from new competition by commercial banks. Once the wall came down, commercial banks gained a sizeable share of the investment banking business. To offset lost revenues, investment banks pursued riskier businesses, growing their principal investments and increasing the amounts they borrowed to finance them. In effect, they assumed the features of commercial banks—a reliance on short-term borrowing to finance longer-term (and riskier) investments. For the investment banks, combining the two was lethal and eventually triggered the financial meltdown. The divide between two sets of regulators, those regulating commercial banks and those regulating investment banks, enabled the change. The need for greater regulatory coordination has grown with convergence in the financial markets. Although new regulation has addressed some of the concern, the gap between regulators continues today—raising the risk of repeating mistakes from the past.
