The Mersey Partnership’s (TMP) Lorraine Rogers at its South Korea presentation at the London Embassy 300
DEVELOPER Peel Holdings hopes to build on links with prospective investors from South Korea, after a presentation by inward investment agency The Mersey Partnership (TMP) at Liverpool’s London embassy.
The Wednesday event was attended by the Republic of Korea’s Ambassador, His Excellency Mr Kyu Ho Choo, the Korean Trade and Investment Agency (KOTRA) and several world-ranking Korean companies, including car maker Hyundai, electronics giant Samsung and Asiana Airlines.
It followed talks initiated six months ago by TMP.
Peel development director Lindsey Ashworth outlined their £10bn plans for Liverpool and Wirral Waters, and said: “Their interest was such that there will be further meetings over the summer, all to take this to the next stage.”
His Excellency the Ambassador said: “I am confident that today will herald the accord of even greater numbers of new prospects and partnerships for growth in the future.”
TMP will now set up visits to the region, said chief executive Lorraine Rogers.

Measured in growth, the American economy has outperformed those of Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Japan — every Group of 7 developed nation except Canada, according to The Associated Press’ new Global Economy Tracker, a quarterly analysis of 22 countries representing more than 80 percent of global output.
Yet the U.S. job market remains the group’s weakest. U.S. employment bottomed and started growing again a year ago, but there are still 5.4 percent fewer American jobs than in December 2007. That’s a much sharper drop than in any other G-7 country. The U.S. h

Federal prosecutors in Florida accused Minkow of releasing false information about the Miami-based company on the Internet and by email in early 2009 to decrease the company’s stock price and compel Lennar to make cash payment to another conspirator.
“These statements alleged widespread improprieties in Lennar’s financial reporting and business structure, and attacked the personal character of Lennar’s management,” prosecutors said in court documents. Minkow did so with “reckless regard for their truth.” Lennar’s stock tumbled 20 percent after Minkow’s report.

Minkow’s attorney did not immediately return calls for comment.
Minkow was convicted of defrauding investors through his ZZZ Best carpet cleaning company. He started the comp
