21/06/2017 - WLN's footprint in Delhi, India

WLN had a fantastic conference in Delhi in February 2017 but we were touched too by the work of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) India (Doctors without Borders). Sexual and gender based violence is quite a taboo in India and therefore it is difficult to reach those victims and to offer help. MSF Delhi is now working on a campaign to advertise in the metro (see photos, right) and we gladly support their fantastic work and this campaign.  We are pleased in the meantime to have collected a significant sum from WLN members and paid that on to MSF.

Activity touched a floor in 2015, assets remain cheap relative to the region and government change raises expectations, energy, media, retail, agrobusiness, technology and finance to the forefront of the trend. Who is who? 2016 was a turning point.  The amounts involved in mergers and acquisitions of companies in Argentina multiplied threefold since the last year of the government of Cristina Kirchner in which they touched the floor of the last ten years.  Orlando Ferreres & Asociados data are an eloquent example: from US $ 869 million to US $ 3109 year on year.
