What looks like a simple hut or a

small villa, is really a refuge.Italian interior design, everydetail being taken care of, fromsupplies to insurance. It maysound difcult to take off oneweek out of the packed scheduleof a venture capitalist, agencycreative or investment banker,but it is easier to do it whenhaving a view to the Adriaticsea.

Our clients are not hard to nd,because we have been in theirshoes: we know what they want,and they do not mind aboutpaying a premium to get it.

Our relationship managers sharethe taste of our clientele, live intheir cities and attend the sameevents they do. But we strive tocreate a more genuineexperience and keep operativecosts relatively low, by handling many administrative details atorigin. The result: net protsover 25%, many times morethan your average bank interest.

I practiced law for three years,then got into investment banking.When 9/11 happened I just had tosign up with the Army. Investmentbanking is a lot more stressfulthan this.

Its not just because beengreen is hip now, isbecause it also makesgood business sense. Wetake advantage of taxbenets by offsetting allemissions fromtransportation and otheroperational activities withCertied EmissionsReductions (CERs).

The facilities are built (orleased) in an area with no

public services (we set up

our own water andenergy facilities withclean technologies, thusincreasing the value of our ecobrand andreducing costs). Also, wechoose properties withhigh forestry and

biodiversity potential,generating positive publicexposure, corporatesocial responsibilityreporting and additionalrevenue streams by selling environmental services toother players.
