    12/7/2015 Cult NewsExecutive Success Programs (ESP) Archives ­ Cult News Cult News Sponsored by the Cult Education Institute Home Getting HelpContactAboutWhat's NewHeadlinesLinksBooksHelp UsFAQ2012 Nov 16 Is Keith Raniere trying to re­brand his business with a new name? DaAdmin Executive Success Programs (ESP), Miscellaneous Add you comment It appears that purported Albany, New York “cult” leader Keith Raniere (photo below), known to his followers as “Vanguard”, may be re­branding his business again. Raniere, a failed multi­level marketing guru, now runs a large group awareness training (LGAT) company. First his business was called Executive Success Programs (ESP), then NXIVM (pronounced nexium) and now it seems the latest name being used is “Ethilogia“. The Ethilogia Web site claims it’s “the path of the ethicist” and teaches “value based decision making”. However, in a 2003 article titled “Cult of Personality” Forbes Magazine described Keith Raniere as the “world’s strangest executive coach” and quoted one of his former clients who labeled his company a “cult”. This year reporter James Odato of the Albany Times­Union won an Associated Press award for his investigative series “Secrets of NXIVM” exposing the seamy side http://www.cultnews.com/category/executivesuccessprogramsesp/ 1/32 12/7/2015 Cult NewsExecutive Success Programs (ESP) Archives ­ Cult News of Raniere’s life and business. The Ehtilogia Web site states, “At the core of this course of study is a patent­pending technology called Rational Inquiry”. This “technology” is described as a process of “emotional training” that affects “decision making” accomplished through “inner breakthroughs”, which are “like working out in an “emotional” gym.” The site says, “Achievements are possible because the very foundation of a person’s human experience”one’s belief system”will be completed and integrated.” Interestingly, what the new Ethilogia Web site doesn’t mention is Keith Raniere, despite the fact that he is the creator of Rational Inquiry.

After the market close in the US yesterday 4th June the Wall Street Journal published an Op-Ed by US Senator Marco Rubio in which he announced that he intends to sponsor the “Equitable Act” – an acronym for Ensuring Quality Information and Transparency for Abroad-Based Listings on our Exchanges. At this time the text of the bill has not been published and we are seeking additional information about its contents and likelihood of passing. However, our early reaction is that this has the potential to cause significant changes in the domain for listings of Chinese firms going forward with the potential for de- listing of Chinese firms on US exchanges and re-listing elsewhere (most likely Hong Kong). More generally we see this development as part of an increased escalation of tensions between China and the US on multiple fronts which should cap the valuation multiple for China equities, in particular in the offshore index constituents and US-listed parts of the universe. We provide a list of the potentially impacted China / HK names with either primary or secondary listings on Amex, NYSE or Nasdaq.
