Editor’s Take: A Take on Acquisitions of All Kinds

Over time, Mark became our go-to guy on catalog matters related to the Street and the whole M&A area. Check out his first column in this issue. Mark will write other Valuations & Acquisitions columns periodically throughout 2008 and beyond.

I’m also excited to welcome our new Understanding Postal columnist, Kathy J. Siviter. I’ve known Kathy since the ’90s when she did yeoman’s work as vice president of the Association for Postal Commerce (PostCom). Having gotten her training first at the USPS, Kathy later branched off and established her own consulting firm in 2000.
