風(fēng)投與私募股權(quán)
輸家 ????史蒂文?米切爾 ????執(zhí)行董事,Argonaut私人股權(quán)投資公司 ????太陽能電池制造商Solyndar的失敗將使私人投資者蒙受10億美元的損失,這也成為令奧巴馬總統(tǒng)頭痛不已的沉重負(fù)擔(dān)。其中損失最為慘重的是Argonaut私人股權(quán)投資公司,該公司投資超過2.7億美元購買股權(quán)。這項交易的負(fù)責(zé)人便是米切爾,同時他也是Solyndra公司的董事會成員。 ????琳恩?蒂爾頓 ????CEO,Patriarch Partners投資公司 ????2011年,琳恩計劃出演一部表現(xiàn)她如何扭轉(zhuǎn)公司頹勢的真人秀,而她的“佳人落難記”也由此拉開了序幕。她今年的經(jīng)歷就像是《澤西海岸》(Jersey Shore)的翻版。隨著一家主要投資組合公司的破產(chǎn),她的公司也因為“誘因欺詐”而被判決有罪。不出所料,目前她的真人秀節(jié)目也被擱淺。 ????道格拉斯?羅恩斯坦 ????前任CEO,私募股權(quán)成長資本委員會 ????羅恩斯坦是私募股權(quán)行業(yè)首個行業(yè)性組織的第一任CEO,成員包括多家行業(yè)巨頭。但這位資深說客卻并不是一位高效的經(jīng)理人,而且他的影響力也不足以敲定《多德弗蘭克法案》。最終,他在8月份遭到解雇。 |
LOSERS ????Steven Mitchell ????Managing director, Argonaut Private Equity ????Private investors will lose some $1 billion on Solyndra, the failed solar-cell maker that has become an albatross around President Obama's neck, but no firm will lose more than Argonaut Private Equity, which invested more than $270 million in equity. Mitchell led this deal for Argonaut and sat on Solyndra's board. ????Lynn Tilton ????CEO, Patriarch Partners ????The "distressed diva" began 2011 with plans to star in a reality series that would show her turning companies around. Her year ended like a Jersey Shore rerun. A major portfolio company went bankrupt, and her firm was found guilty of "fraudulent inducement." Predictably enough, the TV show is now on hold. ????Douglas Lowenstein ????Ex-CEO, Private Equity Growth Capital Council ????Lowenstein was the debut CEO of private equity's first real trade association, with major industry names as members. But the veteran lobbyist wasn't a terribly effective manager, nor was he influential enough to shape Dodd-Frank legislation. He got the boot in August. |
