Serving entrepreneurs: PWM Tea Break
With investors on both sides of the Atlantic feeling subdued, it is becoming more important for wealth managers to identify vibrant pockets of entrepreneurship and engage with these businesses and start-up founders, says April Rudin, a New York-based strategic consultant well-known across the industry
Speaking to PWM’s Yuri Bender over a cup of traditional English tea, Ms Rudin, founder of the Rudin Group, talks about the old school and new school of private banking leaders and discusses the type of bosses she would like to see running firms during this highly polarised era, both in Europe and her native US.
