Description

WHY BUSINESSES FAIL... and the journey through our irrational minds by Bob Weir

DESCRIPTION ISBN: 9780473442255 Format: paperback Size (mm): 180 w x 255 h x 20 d Published: R J Weir 2018 Pages: 292 SKU: 2003/312

ABOUT What was the real reason for the failure of South Canterbury Finance and could it have been saved? Was it really the fall in coal prices that sank Solid Energy? Why did Pumpkin Patch collapse? Why do over 2000 small businesses go into liquidation every year in New Zealand? Why did David Ross defraud over $100 million from Kiwis’ life savings in the failure of Ross Asset Management?

This book is backed by the extensive research of leading academics, and interviews with the CEOs, CFOs and board members of failed businesses. It includes discussions with journalists, fraudsters, insolvency experts, lawyers, official information requests and much more.

Nice book on NZ business history.
