HP dumpster to PE fundster
By now, we've all hear about the Mark Hurd scandal . But what hasn't been mentioned as readily is the axed-CEO market. Other than jail or a prominent role in facilities engineering at the same company, where is a C-level exec to go once he becomes the media's latest lynch puppet burning in effigy?

The Opportunity Is In The Middle of Somewhere...

Hi, I'm currently looking at middle market investment banks around the area and see some deals they have on their website with mostly private companies.
