Pink-faced financiers

Who said Google was for laymen only? Our search for the definition of a “pink sheet” drew a blank from the broking community. Eventually a phone enquiry to an executive with one of the world’s largest investment banks elicited, first, silence and then a mail — with a Googled definition. So we cross-checked with another senior investment banker — who came up with the same Google definition. For reader’s information, a pink sheet is basically a standard trading document used for small-cap companies with slightly dodgy financials.
