  • Infrastructure of Ideas/Intelligent Infrastructure
    The Buttonwood Gathering A world unbalanced New York, October 26th-27th, 2011 Synopsis Three years ago, with Lehman Brothers’ collapse and the precipitous deepening of the financial crisis, the outlook for the global economy was dire. Today, the huge global imbalances that were the backdrop to the financial crisis in 2008 are arguably worse than ever. Countries from America to Japan sag under the weight of enormous debts which, since the crisis, have only grown bigger. In Europe, tension between highly indebted “peripheral” countries and the big European economies that are expected to rescue them threaten the future of the euro itself. Meanwhile, emerging economies from China to Brazil, which have surged in recent years, are battling the growing pains that come with their fast-growing economies—from inflation to widening inequality. The result is a complex shift in the balance of economic power—not simply from the West to the “rest”, but from countries lacking in natural resources to those rich in them, from those deeply indebted to those with savings to spare. What are the implications of the ascendance of emerging economies, especially China, for the West and the global economy? Are global imbalances a problem that need to be resolved—and, if so, who benefits from a re-balancing? What are the consequences of the rich world’s addiction to debt? Who are the winners and losers in a world of scarce natural resources? This year’s Buttonwood Gathering will bring together thought leaders, practitioners and provocateurs in the international finance community to tackle the tough challenge of how to put the world economy on a more balanced footing.

  • Lazard Managers Bolt to Buyout Firm
    LAZARD MANAGERS BOLT TO BUYOUT FIRM, DISTRESSED FUND WILL CLOSE Three managers of a distressed debt fund at Lazard Frères left the firm last week for the Quadrangle Group, a New York-based $1.1 billion private equity firm run by Steven Rattner, the high-profile former Lazard deputy chairman. Lazard will cease operation of the fund, according to Joele Frank, an outside spokeswoman. “As a result of these abrupt departures, we have concluded that the best interests of investors require that we begin an orderly winding down of the fund,” she said. The management team, comprised of Andrew Herenstein, Michael Weinstock and Chris Santana, started the Lazard Debt Recovery Fund with $25 million last October and grew it to $280 million as of last week, according to Frank. Distressed traders close to the three say they left Lazard because the firm placed what they felt was strict limitations on the securities in which they could invest. The traders say Lazard officials were unusually conservative in guarding against any possible conflict between the fund, which invests in companies that are restructuring, and its business as an adviser to those to those companies. That conservatism became more extreme in the wake of the Enron debacle, and, as the fund grew, may have become untenable for the traders. “Lazard is the largest adviser to bankrupt companies in the U.S.,” said one trader, implying that the fund's range of investment options would have been severely limited if it excluded Lazard's clients. Herenstein and Weinstock declined comment, and Santana could not be reached.

    The U.S. Motor Vehicle Industry: Confronting a New Dynamic in the Global Economy Bill Canis Specialist in Industrial Organization and Business Brent D. Yacobucci Specialist in Energy and Environmental Policy March 26, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41154 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress The U.S. Motor Vehicle Industry: Confronting a New Dynamic in the Global Economy Summary This report provides an in-depth analysis of the 2009 crisis in the U.S. auto industry and its prospects for regaining domestic and global competitiveness. It also analyzes business and policy issues arising from the unprecedented restructurings that occurred within the industry. The starting point for this analysis is June-July 2009, with General Motors Company (GM or new GM) and Chrysler Group LLC (or new Chrysler) incorporated as new companies, having selectively acquired many, but not all, assets from their predecessor companies. The year 2009 was marked by recession and a crisis in global credit markets; the bankruptcy of General Motors Corporation and Chrysler LLC; the incorporation of successor companies under the auspices of the U.S. Treasury; hundreds of parts supplier bankruptcies; plant closings and worker buyouts; the cash-for-clunkers program; and increasing production and sales at year’s end. This report also examines the relative successes of the Ford Motor Company and the increasing presence of foreign-owned original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), foreign-owned parts manufacturers, competition from imported vehicles, and a serious buildup of global overcapacity that potentially threatens the recovery of the major U.S.
