3i (Investors in Industry, and formerly the Industrial and
Commercial Finance Corporation, etc.) is Britain's leading venture
capital company. Founded in 1945 as a result of a combination of
pressures and counter-pressures from political parties, Whitehall,
the Bank of England, and the clearing banks, the organization has
played a significant role in post-war investment banking and
industrial development.
The first part of the book traces its history from the early years
of post-war reconstruction and the role played by Piercy and
Kinross, through the years of consolidation, to the higher-profile
years of the change of name and style and the 1994 flotation. The
second part offers an inside view of the workings of this unique
institution - the controllers, 3i's role in developing MBOs,
methods of assessing risk and return, its relationship with capital
markets, etc.
During its first 50 years 3i has invested in numerous well known
and successful companies - many of these are detailed in the text
(British Caledonian, Oxford Instruments, Laura Ashley, etc.). The
book is also elegantly and innovatively designed, making good use
of the well known 3i cartoons.
