Publisher's Synopsis
All those who work in the City know the increasing importance of information which is current and reliable. In these days when change is the only constant, it is no longer possible always to know who's who in the city, and with the incorporation of the highly respected Becket's Directory of the City of London the authority of this guide is much enhanced. Any company wishing to take full advantage of the growing range of services which the City provides needs a ready source of information on whom to approach in significant City organisations. Who's Who in the City aims to provide this in an accessible and attractive volume.;The main Biography section of this sixth edition gives up-to-date professional and personal details of around 16,000 key figures in the UK financial community. The Company Index gives the addresses and telephone numbers of the companies at which these individuals are based, and a Sector Index lists 1760 of these companies by the services they provide. This comprehensive coverage makes the book an essential resource whether you are looking for a financial adviser, a particular company or the Chairman of the Board. Among the fields covered are banking, stockbroking, insurance, fund management, commodity broking, accountancy, the law and professional advisers. Senior figures in overseas financial institutions based in the UK also appear, and institutions outside the Square Mile but with strong connections there.;In 1996, the service will be available on CD-Rom. This will include a full interface with the Macmillan Companies Database. For further information, please contact Nicholas Howell at Macmillan Direct on 0171 881 8024.
