Good evening,
Ding, ding!
The dust has settled on round one – dubbed Bloody Monday – of Swiss bank UBS’ fight with rival investment bank Barrenjoey Capital Partners.
Resignations flowed thick and fast on Monday morning, and about a dozen analysts and one banker had headed for the exit by lunchtime.
Tonight, we take a look at the wash-up from Monday – and conclude that although UBS might be bruised, it won the first-round skirmish.
Elsewhere, we’ve got the scoop on where ex-Virgin Australia chief executive Paul Scurrah is popping up next – he’s traded planes for trains.
Finally, Gresham Partners’ debt advisory team has been called in at cinema chain Hoyts, and any grey nomad readers will like this next IPO.
Happy reading,
