24.10.03 :+0, (147.5) an article in the Independent (Investment column) comments: Durlacher is now focused on being an investment bank for small to medium-sized companies. It will have halved its headcount by December and said only a few of the corporate deals for which it has been hired need to be successful for it to be profitable. Durlacher may return to shareholders again to finance possible acquisitions. It is looking in the field of retail fund managers. It now seems to be back on the rails. Buy, the paper says.
