发帖数: 901 | 2 Of the 11 corporate "up-failers" on our list, none has been accused of
crimes or illegalities, and virtually all of them attribute their
controversial performance as business leaders to factors beyond their
control. Yet critics blame them for problems that deeply damaged the firms
they once ran or helped run. Here are some of the former CEOs and other
corporate honchos who seem to have stumbled upward after being involved in
some of the most notorious corporate episodes of the last decade:

I kind of like their yellow curry also. They do not call it yellow curry.
Instead, they use other names. Ask them
for yellow curry, and they would recommend it. |

NYSE Euronext.
Nelson Chai, chief financial officer of the New York Stock Exchange owner,
is in advanced talks to take a key position at Merrill, according to people
familiar with the matter. One possibility is for Mr. Chai |

Merrill Lynch Gives $1 Million to Rebuild Schools in Earthquake
Affected Areas in China
Dear Colleagues:
The massive earthquake that hit China has left nearly 15,000 people
dead, tens of thousand of others still buried under debris or missing, and
caused widespread damage.
Our Asian team, led by Jason Brand, president of Merrill Lynch Pacific
Rim, has recommended that our firm respond to this crisis by giving
U.S. $1 million to the China Youth Development Foundation |

上月宣布放弃年终奖后，本周一摩根士丹利和美林公司的管理人员也表示将放弃年底的
红包，而摩根士丹利还打算对未来的奖金制度进行改革。
彭博社周一援引摩根士丹利一份内部备忘录称，该公司CEO约翰·麦克(John Mack)
宣布，他本人和联合总裁Walid Chammah及James Gorman今年将不会收到年终奖，昨日
摩根士丹利中国相关人士也向《第一财经日报》证实了这一消息。而美林公司周一在也
其官方网站宣布，包括美林总裁约翰·赛恩(John Thain)在内的5位高管将不能获得年
终奖。摩根士丹利已经在9月获准转型银行控股公司，而美林也在雷曼兄弟破产之后出
售给了美国银行。
“只要还有政府的救助资金存在这些金融机构中，这些机构就需要表现出某种卑微
或不安，而他们也正是这么做的。” Grimes & Co.的分析师Benjamin Wallace这样表
示，他称，华尔街巨头们的这一变化对于本身的公司运作也是一件好事情。
由于今年业绩太差和美国政府注资附带条件限制，美国金融机构不得不缩减对员工

我的华尔街之路，是从赌场开始的。
若干年前，我坐在赌场里对着一大堆红红绿绿的筹码计算得失，给自己挣点零花钱
；若干年后，我管理着数亿美元的交易账簿，为银行创造着以千万美元计的利润。 这
之间的跨度不可谓不大，却又似乎不是很大：都是赌，赌注不同而已。
关于赌，我应该很有些遗传：据说我太爷爷就好赌，我太姥爷还开过麻将馆。 我
继承了两边的基因，然而由于生在新中国，长在红旗下，我的好赌本性很长时间内受到
了压抑，以致转而热爱数学，并且混进了北大。 不过大学四年我只学明白了一件事：
数学这个领域太过艰深，而我真正精通的只有算术，还是扬长避短，找个与算术关系密
切的职业比较稳妥。
毕业后我随着出国大潮“盲流”到美国，踏着前辈们的足迹转学了电脑，却没有顺
理成章地奔赴硅谷，而是误打误撞进了某投资银行从事IT工作。 其实那时候我都不清
楚投资银行到底是干什么的，只觉得每天与变幻莫测的市场打交道应该很酷。
到了华尔街之后我才发现，虽然“身在赌场”，可我的工作与“押宝下注”毫不沾

我们的部门负责人杰瑞出身于 J. Aron，根正苗红，是晋升合伙人的热门。 这“合伙
人”是高盛特有的一个级别，地位在董事总经理之上。 早期的华尔街投行基本上都是
合伙制度，资本由合伙人拼凑，提升到合伙人的员工就要贡献资本，同时也参与分红。
实行合伙制度的投行风险意识都很强，行事谨慎，因为毕竟资本是合伙人自己的。八
十年代后，由于交易规模扩大，以及新产品不断出现，投行业的资本用量越来越大，各
投资银行不得不纷纷放弃资本来源有限的合伙制度：有的与商业银行合并“傍了大款”
，也有的通过上市发行股票扩大融资渠道。 所有权与管理权的分离，使得华尔街越来
越漠视风险，盲目追逐利润，这也是诱发金融危机的一个原因。

美联社纽约电
美国银行(Bank of America，NYSE代號：BAC)周一宣布，以500亿美元收购美林公
司(Merrill Lynch，NYSE代號：MER)，为其財经服务帝国再添砖加瓦，令其有望创建一
家可以提供所有金融服务的银行，从固定收入交易到信用卡借贷无不囊括。从资產方面
计算，美国银行也將与美国最大的银行花旗集团(Citigroup Inc.)不相上下。
美国银行周一早宣布，以全部股票交易形式收购美林，这一举动將消除美林自去年
信贷危机以来一直挥之不去的不確定感。美国银行在美国各大银行中存款量最大，而美
林公司则是全球最大且最广为人知的经纪行。
美国银行主席兼行政总裁路易斯(Ken Lewis)与美林行政总裁赛恩(John Thain)周一举
行联合新闻发布会。路易斯在新闻发布会上说，美林是世界顶级金融公司，这是千载难
逢的机会。
形势紧迫 火速达成交易
整个交易的达成用了不到48小时，根据交易条款，美国银行將以0.8595普通股兑换1股
美林普通股。按照美国银行周五的收市价格33.74美元，美 |

It is amazing to see Goldman's alumni take one and another top positions at big banks these days, and now their network influences both Wall St and US government. Would anybody please explain why this happens? What did Goldman do right that helps generate so many leaders for US financial system? Thank you. |
