Subject: draft
It was a treat to have lunch . Your kindness was greatly appreciated. I thought I;d return the
kindness by providing you my thoughts on our conversation. These thoughts are tailored , less
like your bed sheets , but more like a bath towel. more warm encompassing and hopefully
functional.
I thought i might share some of my experiences with past clients that they have found to be
beneficial. That being said, I owe a signifigant debt to Edmond, his principles have guided my
business for 30 years. Aesthetics pervade my solutions to problems . Each problem has a
myriad of solutions but few are truly beautiful. HIs ideas of the role of a " banker " was
glorious. social responsibity from both the top down and the bottom up. in an attempt to make a
useful analogy,
Banking businesses have become similar to systems that can only be compared to biology. yes
biology. The body has many independent systems, checks and balances, and unlike during the
last industrail revolution where things were more liketmachines, In essence push the button here
and something we already expect and know to happen pops out the other side. As systems
become more complex, this does not happen. It is like saying my cholesterol is high , so by
lowering it I will be healthy, it is no longer simple -every time you try to fix one organ another
is effected , sometimes positvely sometimes negatively, .. To paraphrase your words in our body -
all systems have the same DNA , HOWEVER, they all must function with a very narrow purpose.
. Our heart pumps blood , the liver cleans it, they dont share the same responsiblities though
they all work toward the same end, Asking finance people to become philanthropcially minded ,
and philantropists to engage in finance , is usually if evolution is a guide a sub optimal soluiton
to system helath. , It works in small businesses but as the many divisions get larger and more
autonomous, speciailizaation, ( again biological system). is the way millions of years of trial and
error have proven most effective.
If you were once again to focus on being the banker to the world leaders, giving them what
they themselves require, help, guidance , expertise, they are always more agreeable to helping
their own people. Entrepenurs do not exist in africa, they are more like agents of large foreign
companies, it is almost impossible to find a new disruptive technology that has come out of the
enitre continent. ( again I have been privledged to sit on the Trilateral commission for years
when the Rockefeller focus was Latin America. ) Davids idealism was strong but inversely
proprtional to the direct results. It took new , young thinking to bring Columbia and Brazil to
their potentials. The scope of your reach, and the worlds most exclusice financail brand , can go
a long way to making posiitve change, but at least what i have seen hope should guide a strategy
, not dictate it.
As you are already aware , I , like you, speak my mind, and try to be direct so as not to have
any misunderstandings. When I am next in europe , if you think you might find it intersting and
fun I am more than happy to spend more time describing , Health as it relates to financial
institutions combined with diets and and financail nutrition.
