Here's an interesting article on another thread:

Message 13546050

Of note from the article:

"This reminds me of the two Japanese expressions for the word "truth." One word actually means truth (honne). The other means what comes before (tatemae). What comes before is the conflict-avoiding explanation for public consumption.

"The published explanation for why idealab! and others want to be holding companies -- the "guiding hand" principle -- is the tatemae. The honne, or the real reason, is that holding companies can go public and then, if the recent performance of CMGI (CMGI:Nasdaq - news - boards) and Internet Capital Group (ICGE:Nasdaq - news - boards) are any indication, can trade for huge premiums to the values of their assets."
