  • Japan: The teacher who invested $15 billion
    The world's big borrowers have found a new source of super-cheap funding. In the past year, a group of small, hitherto almost unheard of Japanese institutions ­ most famously the Teachers' Pension Fund ­ have bought as much as $100 billion of structured Euro-MTNs. So desperate are these investors for certain types of securities that a top-rated borrower can raise funds via a private placement in Japan for as little as Libor minus 60 basis points.

  • Self-starter is falling behind
    Slovenia was in economic pole position in eastern Europe when communism collapsed in 1990.

Many companies are 60% owned by management and employees, and often do not welcome outside investors.
