Primary Evidence

"The cunning banker, who spoke an Italian like a pizza maker, had already helped the people from Turin diversify their capital beyond the automotive industry, and take significant stakes in the capital of L'Oréal and Air liquide. So, investing a $ 100 million ticket in Albatros Investissement, one of the holdings through which Vincent Bolloré kept control of his group-the famous "Breton pulleys" invented by the financier-should not have been a bad investment. "And the Agnelli family is so rich...," as Bernheim used to say, with all his ambiguity towards the powers of money."

And his only friend in business."
