Last week colleagues and I met Jin Liqun, president of the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, shortly after it issued its $2.5bn debut global bond. We didn’t actually need the financing, he told us. “But we need to build a presence in capital markets” @AIIB_Official

The Abraaj saga has shed light on private-equity firms’ less orthodox tactics. When some of the firm’s clients found out they could be on the hook for several loans it had defaulted on, “they were not best pleased,” says @probitaspartner economist.com/finance-and-ec… #abraaj
What a great keynote from @astro_g_dogg at @IInews #IIGSummit today - one for the ages!
Fascinating keynote from @astro_g_dogg at #IIGSummit. Covering the recent past and near of space travel. Plus working with Elon Musk.

Only a few hours to go until @IInews #iigsummit starts. 7 co-located events, 4 days and a killer lineup for the world’s largest #infrastructure event. See you all soon!
“Net migration from the EU to the UK has slumped to a six-year low, while non-EU migration is the highest in more than a decade” - Gosh if only the UK could control non-EU migration after #Brexit too. Oh wait... theguardian.com/uk-news/2018…

#ICYMI Remember all those bad mortgages that sank the economy in 2008? Today they’re the hottest trade on Wall Street as investors big and small buy them up and try to collect. Some are also getting securitized with AAA ratings. #NoteInvesting wsj.com/articles/a-decade-af…

And we’re done! It’s been a great 3 days at #iiHongKong drilling down into the Asian #infrastructure opportunity w/250+ atendees. Reminds me of how that other ‘small’ conference @IInews runs in Berlin used to look like a few years ago. Bring on #iiGSummit 2019!
