At the Imagination Gallery off Tottenham Court Road in London's West End in early February, Morgan Stanley is making its latest attempt to woo UK institutions with the launch of its new multi-asset-class product.
Among all the fund managers and marketing people there are a lot of press and representatives of some of the UK's largest pension funds - the sort of clients Morgan Stanley would love to have on board.
Along with the drinks and canapés, to amuse its guests the firm has brought in Rory Bremner, one of the UK's leading entertainers, who does scarily accurate impressions of Bill Clinton and Tony Blair, among others. Now with a new president in the White House, he is bringing his George W Bush up to speed as well and the recent election gives him an easy opportunity for a gag.
