"Charting the deal economy"
1/19/2001
"Dealmaking is the creative activity that fuels the global economy," say the editors of this terrific site from the publishers of The Daily Deal newspaper. Aiming their coverage at corporate executives, entrepreneurs, and investors of all stripes, they take a highly creative and useful approach, examining dealmaking from a wide variety of angles. Highlights include straight news (updated daily), original analysis of recent deals and the tactics of prominent dealmakers, a "scoreboard" (looking "inside the numbers"), resources on "deal research" and "tools of the trade," online discussions, and an event calendar. Specific sections on the front page also zero in on different areas of the "deal spectrum," including private equity, venture capital, mergers and acquisitions, and bankruptcies.
