Amstrad plc RSS feedSugar plumbs new low in Pimlico

There was once a laughable suggestion that Alan Sugar could run for London Mayor. Surely there is no chance of the star of TV’s The Apprentice and Gordon Brown’s recently ennobled business adviser, taking to the hustings — given that he keeps firing off solicitors’ letters to anyone who has the temerity to criticise him2009-09-09T07:51:34ZCity Spy: Busson's Ark sails through the storm

London's hedge fund community may have had a torrid time last year but at least its favoured charity, Arki Busson's ARK (or absolute return for kids), has shown the way in moneymaking. In the year to August 2008, its income rose from £32.7 million to £40.2 million. Furthermore, hedge fund turmoil is not expected to affect the levels of pledges. ARK acknowledges that "the level of outstanding donor pledges is considered to be one of the charity's key risks" but that all funding pledges "due for payment have been received to date." So hats off to the generous hedgies and let's hope that spirit continues.2009-07-06T06:11:50ZBusiness beware the Sugar rush that wiped out Amstrad
