Mayer Rothschild, the founder of the Rothschild family, famously said that the hand that gives money is always higher than the hand that takes it.
This sentence vividly describes the position of bankers in social and economic activities.
For the world's best talent, Wall Street will always be the place to be.
Almost all of the best students who graduate from the best universities in the world every year have their ultimate goal of getting into the Big Five.
After a series of capital turmoil last year, Seryosha recruited three of Wall Street's top investment gurus, including Bill Gross to head the securities investment department of Bank of Columbia, while Peterson and Schwartzman sold 80 percent of the shares of Blackstone, which they founded, to Bank of Colombia.
Now the Bank of Colombia, which has $3 trillion in hand, has enough ammunition and is ready to make a big deal on Wall Street.
Bill Gross's bond fund was first replenished to $50 billion, which is enough money to make Bill Gross stand out from most of Wall Street's bond funds.
Blackstone, on the other hand, received $20 billion in funding, and they were able to buy their favorite companies in the U.S. capital market.
Seryosha, who is trying his hand at Wall Street, doesn't plan to overshoot the stall as soon as he comes up, and the small money is just for Blackstone and Columbia's investment department to try its skills.
In the future, with their development, Seryosha will invest more money in these two departments.
Whether it is Bill Gross or Blackstone, Seryosha firmly believes that with their ability, after obtaining the initial start-up capital, they will slowly find their own right direction, and both departments will bring long-term and stable income.
But right now, there is an easy and easy opportunity waiting for Seryosha, that is, the US securities market, which is about to enter the Internet age.
With Iridium's basic network plan well underway, the sleek Nasdaq has connected its own transactions to Iridium's network.
The more conservative New York Stock Exchange is still consulting Iridium on technical issues.
In the United States, large financial institutions are mainly concentrated on the East Coast, and the construction of Iridium's infrastructure network also started on the East Coast.
The Internet has brought a completely different communication experience to the financial industry, and people can finally accept quotes in real-time from their offices that are synchronized with the exchange, instead of contacting their stockbrokers first and then buying and selling after the quotes have been confirmed.
For many investors, it is more convenient to grasp the rapidly changing market.
However, the Internet is a new thing, and there are many loopholes that financial institutions have not taken into account in front of Seryosha.
High-frequency trading is one of the biggest opportunities.
Seryosha wants Columbia to be the first on Wall Street to trade programmatically, because no traders, no matter how fast, can compete with IB's giant computers.
Because the NASDAQ has been connected to Eva's business network, Seryosha's first programmatic trading platform intends to use the NASDAQ as a development blueprint, under Mikhail's dollar offensive, IB came up with its latest supercomputer products, and specially sent engineers who have been responsible for the financial development of the US Treasury for a long time to serve the system of Bank of Colombia.
However, the main work done by IB is mainly to make the Columbia supercomputer can automatically match the stock quotes on the NASDAQ market, and the most critical part of the whole system is actually in the hands of YOTA Communications, and Eva secretly arranged the top routing algorithm engineers to be responsible for making the transaction data of the Bank of Colombia travel smoothly on the network at twice the rate.
In order to maximize the speed of transactions in this system, Seryosha even bought a property not far from the Nasdaq exchange to house the giant, and Seryosha also bought the property next door to the New York Stock Exchange.
Just wait for the NYSE to announce the adoption of the network to accept commissions, where Seryosha will lay out a similar system.
IB's development capabilities are really not covered, and the system was officially put into operation in just one month.
After half a month of testing, the system basically met the performance requirements required by Bank of Colombia.
However, this system is only more than half of the development so far, because there is another key point, that is, the high-frequency trading model needs to be entered into the mainframe computer, because only in this way, the mainframe computer can follow the guidance of the model, find a safe spread to match transactions, and earn double the profit from the buyer and the seller respectively.
This kind of thing is not easy for the people in the IB company to know, but fortunately, Seryosha still has talents in this area, Grigory, Berezovsky's hands have long-term hires of a group of mathematicians to design sports prediction models for Yuri's sports betting company William Hill.
This kind of thing is much more complex than this financial model that Seryosha desperately needs now.
Therefore, Grigory and Berezovsky could have taken this matter on their shoulders.
Seryosha asked Mikhail to bring Bill Gros closer to the development team of this system, and Bill Gros has already formed a complete trading system in his many years of investment career, and it is only with it that he can tell what kind of functions this system needs.
After Seryosha assigned the task, he didn't care about anything except the following progress from time to time.
At this time, the news from China was still not optimistic, and Yeltsin and Ligachev had not yet decided the winner.
This made Seryosha have to find another excuse to postpone his return to China.
Seryosha could not cross the Iron Curtain as he wanted because of his identity, and when Seryosha stood on the soil of East Berlin, he really wanted to see what the current Volkswagen car had become.
Fortunately, Karim was spared this restriction, and was introduced through an intermediary from the Rothschild family, and Karim was given a chance to visit the Volkswagen factory.
When Karim returned to East Germany from West Germany, Seryosha couldn't wait to ask about the current situation at the Volkswagen plant.
"Seryosha, this company is now basically in the hands of the German government, and if we want to buy it, we have to get past the German government first.
There is an agreement between the Volkswagen Group and the government that the company can only be acquired if it buys 80 percent of the company's shares.
Karim introduced Seryosha.
When Seryosha heard the news, he immediately muttered in his heart.
Eighty percent, in most countries, as long as you buy 30 percent, you can make an offer, and the Germans are black enough t1706231537:
