Monks, Publisher of ... and severalbooks about corporate governance "Educated investors are essential to successfully functioningcapital markets. At this critical time in our financial history, restoring the confidence in our financial system lost over the pastyear will depend upon financial advisors and investors trulyunderstanding the companies they invest in. As Economic ValueManagement shows, being educated means more than understanding theunique language of the stock market, it is more than reading aprospectus or an annual report, it is more than listening to ananalyst's opinions. Being educated requires a genuine understandingof the value of a company."- Mary L. Schapiro, Vice Chairman, President, Regulatory Policy and Oversight, NASD (NationalAssociation of Securities Dealers) "Economic Value Management would have limited much of the economicturmoil we have experienced in the last eighteen months.
