I am sorry hear that the people in your group will be affected as well. Please keep me in the loop as you get time to work on your future activities. One of the areas where I would like to creat a new business line is in Enterprise Cash flow analysis. It will be a software (middleware) play that will link up with existing financial tools to assess and manage cash delta to various exposures (commodity price, volume, weather, interest rate & spread, FX, etc...). There are plenty of tools out there claiming to do this but I don't think they have the risk management and financial analysis background to build an effective tool. Also, without consulting support going along with it the client would not be able to assess the exposure. It can provide reliability analysis type of drill down from what can go wrong to simulation of down grade events, etc... The tool could be used to host a site where publically traded company's financial information can be extracted out of EDGAR and Cash flow risk indicator can be publihsed.... I am thinking that there must be a grant (matching based on a company seeding this activity) that could be used to do the initial development. It could come from SEC, AIMR, FAS, etc... I know there are plenty of cash flow at risk (CAR) and profit at risk (PAR) tools out there but I think I can take that old concept and deliver the product that is useful and provides relevant information. The presentation of the software is as important as its functionality. Quicken came up with its product, which was not that new but it worked and easy to use..... The resources I am talking about is myself and a software programer to start with and adding another junior analyst later. Let me know if I am missing something here. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kaminski, Vince J To: Cc: Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 5:28 PM Subject: Hello Hi Ravi, A quick update. I got your messages. Our old group will be dissolved next Tuesday and I am extremely busy processing all the documents. Nothing happened yet on the other side: I don't have time to act on it. I shall call you when we get through this ordeal.
