A most unusual Prospectus

Abstract

Ultimately, the reason that a prospectus is such an important document is because it is asking people to part with money based on the facts and figures contained therein.

I seem to remember that in the first 10 or so drafting meetings we never managed to get beyond page six of the Prospectus — and that only took us as far as the second page of Peter Thompson’s introductory letter to NFC employees!

Quote from Michael Hamer, the Barclays Merchant Bank director most intimately involved in the preparation of the Prospectus.
