Adnan Khashoggi has bought the small "WMP" which is Wiener Maklerei & Portfoliomanagement (it was the former Wais&Deutsch, named after 2 famous Vienna brokers, later it called itself "Arelape"). The Format put out an article which contains some of the facts I mention below: news.at news.at Within Khashoggi there is a man named Rakesh Saxena, Director Raxesh Saxena is rumoured to have contributed to the Billion bankruptcy of the Bangkok Bank of Commerce ($2.4B damage, accused by thai authorities). A U.S. citizen named "Regis Possino" is running daily affairs of the bank, international reports call Possino a californian ex-lawyer who has been abolished due to drug trafficking & fraud. The finder of the deal appears to be "Raoul Bertha(u)mieu", a canadian citizen, who took over a seat on WMPs board a longer time ago. Berthamieu has been convicted under check fraud. His nickname is "Lee Sanders", his newest company is named "Pacific Federal, Inc." "Global Capital Partners" is the dominating shareholder in "WMP" according to reports. GCAP, WMP and others are accused of pumping weak stocks. A friend told me that former bank comrade at the First Austrian, a lawyer named Martin Oppitz is leading the investigations, he also informed the national investigation officers about the WMP case. WMP has been put under federal supervision as early at Jan 16th. ================================================= Here is a blurb from the article that I had Translated. Sorry the translation is so bad but alta vista can not translate every word correctly. "American Regis Possino worries. Mister Possino logiert meanwhile on 172 square meters in luxurioes a furnished dwelling in the Viennese Radisson SAS palace (monthly rent: 62,500 Schilling) and was ready in relation to FORMAT for no statement. According to US newspaper reports it concerns with Possino a California ex lawyer, who may not operate after condemnations because of drug trade and fraud no more in the industry." news.at Wien-Trip eines Waffenhändlers Der legendäre saudische Waffenhändler Adnan Kashoggi verhandelte mit der Kärntner Hypo-Alpe-Adria-Bank und übernahm mit Hilfe internationaler Finanzartisten die Kontrolle über die kleine Wiener WMP Bank AG. Die Wirtschaftspolizei ermittelt. Wolfgang Kulterer ist der Termin so lebhaft in Erinnerung, als ob es gestern gewesen wäre: Ende November wurde der Chef der zu 52 Prozent im Besitz des Landes Kärnten stehenden Hypo-Alpe-Adria-Bank AG zu einer Unterredung ins Wiener Nobelhotel Imperial gebeten. Ein gewisser Raoul Berthaumieu wollte den Bankboß einem Geschäftsfreund vorstellen. „Ich habe sicherheitshalber unseren Rechtsanwalt mitgenommen“, staunt Kulterer noch heute. Dodis Onkel in Wien Im Imperial wurde dem Banker dann ein kleiner, rundlicher Herr mit Oberlippenbart vorgestellt – kein Geringerer als Adnan Kashoggi. Der 65jährige saudische Geschäftsmann verdiente sein großes Geld in den siebziger Jahren, als achtzig Prozent der Waffenlieferungen der USA durch seine Hände gingen. Zehn Jahre später hatte es der Onkel des verunglückten Geliebten der britischen Prinzessin Diana, Dodi al-Fayed, zum Dollarmultimilliardär und einem der reichsten Männer der Welt gebracht. So schnell Kashoggi seine Milliarden verdient hatte, so schnell zerrannen sie wieder. Bis heute sind der Luxus und die schönen Frauen, mit denen der Saudi sich umgibt, aber Legende. Von seinem 2.000 Hektar großen Anwesen im spanischen Milliardärsdorado Marbella war Kashoggi nach Wien gereist, um Geschäfte anzubahnen. „Herr Kashoggi hat diverse Projekte vorgeschlagen und wollte bei uns Konten eröffnen“, berichtet Hypo-Banker Kulterer, „ich habe das aber abgelehnt.“ Den Termin im Hotel Imperial hatte der Kashoggi-Vertraute Raoul Berthaumieu arrangiert: Der gebürtige Kanadier war im Sommer des Vorjahres erstmals in Wien aufgetaucht, wo er in der kleinen WMP Bank AG den Posten eines Vorsitzenden des Aufsichtsrates übernahm. Kapitale Partner Möglich geworden war dies, weil es unter den Aktionären der WMP zu Veränderungen kam: Bei den US-Aktionären der WMP (sie ist aus den Resten der Wiener Immobiliengesellschaft Residenz AG hervorgegangen) hatte eine US-Gesellschaft namens Global Capital Partners Inc. eine dominante Rolle übernommen. Folge: Der über verästelte Konstruktionen gehaltene Anteil österreichischer Aktionäre, angeführt vom Wiener Wolfgang Kössner, an der Bank sank von vierzig auf neun Prozent. Kössner, der mit seiner Rechtsanwältin Ursula Xell-Srkeiner gegen die neuen Besitzer der WMP kämpft: „Es mehren sich die Indizien, daß sich eine Clique Großkrimineller in der Bank eingenistet hat.“ Ein FORMAT vorliegendes Dossier beschreibt, wer bei der mit eingeschränkter Banklizenz als Börsenmakler tätigen WMP in der Wiener Schlickgasse 1 seit Herbst das Sagen hat (siehe Faksimiles): - Raoul Berthaumieu, 56, amtiert als neuer Chef des Aufsichtsrats: Laut US-Zeitungen wurde der gebürtige Kanadier bereits 1991 im US-Bundesstaat Arkansas wegen Scheckbetruges verurteilt und soll in den USA auch unter dem Namen Lee Sanders aufgetreten sein. Neuerdings operiert Berthaumieu von Brüssel aus über eine Pacific Federal Inc. und pflegt bei seinen wöchentlichen Besuchen in Wien standesgemäß im Imperial abzusteigen. Die Kärntner Hypo-Alpe-Adria hat ihm einen Hundert-Millionen-Kredit zur Finanzierung von zwei Lagerhäusern in Belgien gewährt. - Als Vertrauter Berthaumieus zieht ein überaus bunter Vogel vom kanadischen Vancouver aus die Fäden: der gebürtige Inder Rakesh Saxena, 48. Ins Rampenlicht war der sanftmütige Finanzartist im Juni 1996 geraten, als bei der Bangkok Bank of Commerce eine Milliardenpetite ruchbar wurde. Thailands Behörden beschuldigen Saxena seither, für den Zusammenbruch der Bank verantwortlich zu sein, nachdem sich sagenhafte 33 Milliarden Schilling verflüchtigt hatten. Saxena, „Thailands most wanted man“ („Asiaweek“), setzte sich rechtzeitig nach Vancouver ab. Die Thais begehren bislang vergeblich seine Auslieferung. Adnan Kashoggi und Rakesh Saxena kennen und schätzen einander seit der Bankpleite in Thailand: die Thais beschuldigen nämlich auch Kashoggi, am Zusammenbruch der Bank beteiligt gewesen zu sein, und erließen gegen ihn bereits 1997 einen Haftbefehl. Aus dem Dossier geht hervor, daß das Duo Saxena/Kashoggi zuletzt im vergangenen Herbst zumindest zehn Prozent der Wiener WMP Bank gekauft hat. In der Folge wurde die WMP vor dem Jahreswechsel in General Commerce Bank umbenannt. Saxena gegenüber FORMAT: „Herr Kashoggi betrachtet Wien als interessanten Börsenplatz.“ - Um das Tagesgeschäft der Bank kümmert sich neuerdings der 52jährige Amerikaner Regis Possino. Mister Possino logiert mittlerweile auf 172 Quadratmetern in einer luxuriös möblierten Wohnung im Wiener Radisson SAS Palais (Monatsmiete: 62.500 Schilling) und war gegenüber FORMAT zu keiner Stellungnahme bereit. Laut US-Zeitungsberichten handelt es sich bei Possino um einen kalifornischen Ex-Anwalt, der nach Verurteilungen wegen Drogenhandels und Betrugs nicht mehr in der Branche arbeiten darf. Hypo-Chef Kulterer, der der WMP ebenso Kredite gewährt hatte wie die CA, bemerkte nach eigenen Angaben bereits im Oktober, daß in der Bank nach der Machtübernahme merkwürdige Deals abliefen. Kulterer: „Es häuften sich Wertpapiertransaktionen mit schwächlichen Aktien, deren Kurse offenbar in die Höhe getrieben werden sollten. Ich habe das im Oktober dem Chef der Bankenaufsicht im Finanzministerium gemeldet.“ Einzige Konsequenz: Am 16. Jänner 2001 wurde die Bank unter Geschäftsaufsicht gestellt. Bemerkenswert ist, daß Kulterer trotz dieser Turbulenzen Finanzierungen für den Aufsichtsratschef der Bank, Raoul Berthaumieu, durchführte. Kika-Boß und Hypo-Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender Herbert Koch wurde am 13. Februar von Kössner-Anwältin Xell-Skreiner darüber informiert, daß die Bank „mit einer international tätigen Gruppierung vorbestrafter Wirtschaftskrimineller an einem Strang zieht“. Akte II-164/WP/01 Nachdem die CA kürzlich ein im Dezember mit der Hypo paktiertes Stillhalteabkommen brach und über ihren Anwalt Martin Oppitz eine Sachverhaltsdarstellung bei der Staatsanwaltschaft Wien deponierte, hat die Wirtschaftspolizei in der Affäre unter der Aktenzahl II-164/ WP/01 die Ermittlungen aufgenommen. Hannes Reichmann ======================================= Regis Possino the disbarred attorney which is under investigation with the SEC for manipulating penny stocks? Dr. Alan Viet Phan which has has many dealings with Regis Possino. Regis Possino that shows up in HRCT SEC filings? ============================================== Cautionary Tale Of A Little Stock And Big Losses Small eSat Inc. appears to be the familiar tale of Internet stocks, which rocketed in price on favorable news only to come back to earth after some of that news' accuracy was questioned. The tale of eSat underlies how hard it can be for investors to track some companies' financial prospects, and to discern the financial backing of some fledgling Internet firms. At the heart of the eSat story is a convicted drug dealer and con man named Regis Possino, whose name has shown up in numerous court regulatory filings and other documents as a consultant and shareholder in numerous companies. Recently, the SEC has been inquiring into Mr. Possino's current activities, and Idaho securities regulators have obtained a judgment against a company that they say was owned by Mr. Possino. In that suit, regulators said Mr. Possino's company and one of its salesmen misled investors in the selling of two issues that produced over $150,000 in losses for the purchasers. Among other things, the salesmen failed to disclose that Mr. Possino owned the company and that one of the stocks was already under a SEC manipulation lawsuit. ESat signed a deal in Sept. 1998 with one of Mr. Possino's firms, and later corporate entities bought five million shares of the company. By January 1999, the company's shares had skyrocketed on the OTC Bulletin Board, aided by news the company had a close association with Lucent Technologies Inc. When several months later this was proven false, investors were angry, and the stock slid. Mr. Possino was nowhere shown to be associated with the company.

Cisco's Murky Future smartmoney.com By Robert Hunter March 30, 2001 WHEN LARRY ELLISON, chief executive of Oracle (ORCL), hired former White House press secretary Joe Lockhart for a top communications job back in November, I thought it was a bad omen for the company. Ellison is the Dennis Rodman of Silicon Valley, and hiring Bill Clinton's chief spinmeister could only mean that he had no intention of cleaning up his act anytime soon. Cisco Systems (CSCO) CEO John Chambers is another story. When he was leading his company to global dominance of the Internet-infrastructure business and making millionaires out of middling executives, he could do no wrong. But once Cisco's share price started plummeting, Chambers quickly found that he could do no right. In the past six months, he's put his foot in his mouth more times than a chimpanzee with nougat nail polish. Chambers, a big George W. Bush supporter, should hire former White House speaker Marlin Fitzwater as his new communications strategist. Fitzwater, you'll recall, had to work some media magic to smooth things over with Japanese officials after Bush The Elder puked on Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa in public. That's exactly the kind of expertise Chambers needs right about now, since many Cisco shareholders — and Wall Street analysts — are feeling splattered on, too. Chambers's latest imbroglio happened last weekend, when he commented to the Financial Times that the U.S. economic downturn would continue for "at least three more quarters." He also said Cisco's sales in February were down year-over-year, and that Cisco may have witnessed the "fastest deceleration that any company had ever experienced." Analysts were blindsided, and scrambled to adjust their earnings outlooks. "Our recent channel checks [that's analyst-speak for interviews with customers] on Cisco over the past week did not suggest weakness in the business of this magnitude," admitted Christopher Stix of Morgan Stanley in a research note released at 6:44 a.m. Monday. He promptly cut his earnings estimates for the sixth time in 12 weeks, to 45 cents a share from 55 cents for fiscal 2001, and to 46 cents from 58 cents for fiscal 2002. George Hunt of Wachovia Securities also took the negative remarks to heart, dropping his estimates as a direct result. Other analysts, meanwhile, tried to save face for being caught off-guard. On Wednesday morning, Alexander Henderson of Salomon Smith Barney reported that he had gone to the extraordinary length of interviewing his own company's network planners to gauge IT investment plans in companies around the world. (I wonder what prompted the in-depth analysis.) They said they would reduce spending for router upgrades and would slow down the process of upgrading to faster Ethernet infrastructures. Taking that and some unspecified "commentary from the field" into account, Henderson slashed his earnings estimates for fiscal 2001, 2002 and 2003. Cisco shares weren't pounded too badly on Monday or Tuesday, thanks to a broad-based Nasdaq rally. But by Wednesday, the Street's earnings revisions started piling up quickly, while Nortel Networks (NT) warned that its first-quarter loss would be bigger than expected. These events weighed on Cisco shares like an anvil, sending them down 13% Wednesday and another 3.2% on Thursday. The downgrades following the Financial Times are discouraging, to be sure. But the more vexing issue is Cisco's horrendous guidance in recent months. Cisco is often celebrated as one of the best companies in the world at gauging demand for its products — and its six-year string of hitting earnings targets would seem to support that. But lately, Chambers has looked more confused than Ted Kennedy at an oxygen bar. In November, when Cisco was still growing by leaps and bounds, Chambers raised his revenue guidance for fiscal 2001 to 50% to 60% growth — figures he would reaffirm on Dec. 4. In the Feb. 5 issue of Fortune magazine, he insisted Cisco could continue growing by 30% to 50% a year for the next five years. Then the wheels started falling off. Just a day after the Fortune article was published, Cisco missed its earnings target, announcing a per-share profit of 18 cents for its fiscal second quarter (ended Jan. 27) instead of the 19 cents the Street was expecting. Still, Chambers tried to put a happy spin on things. "While we remain cautious about the implications of a brief pause in the current 10-year expansion of the U.S. economy, we believe that Cisco has never been better positioned…" he said in the earnings release. He also noted that international sales were still robust, particularly in Asia. Then, on March 9, Cisco announced it was laying off up to 17% of its work force, mostly temp workers, and said it would take a one-time charge of up to $400 million by the fiscal fourth quarter. Four days after that bombshell, Chambers made some more stunning comments. The biggest: that he had seen signs of a major slowdown way back in mid-December, and that things had worsened in January. "The lights went out," he confessed. "There's no question we got knocked on our tails." He also said the global environment had become "more challenging, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region." Nevertheless, he predicted that Cisco would return to 30% to 50% growth at some point. "Our opportunity I don't think has ever been greater," he said. "I'm not looking at this with unrealistic optimism." Clearly, that optimism faded by the time of the Financial Times interview less than two weeks later. Chambers's faulty guidance raises some troubling questions. If he saw signs of the dramatic slowdown in December, why did he continue making rosy predictions? Even worse: Did he see the signs at all? Skeptics might argue that Chambers didn't know growth was slowing until it was too late, and only said he did after the fact to protect his reputation as a savvy manager. Neither scenario is appealing. Analysts, meanwhile, are dumbfounded. As we've reported before, the Securities and Exchange Commission's new Regulation FD has changed the way companies interact with investors. Gone are the days when officials would leak pertinent information to Wall Street analysts, who would then quietly pass it along to their institutional brokerage clients to act on before the general public got wind of things. Now, companies must broadcast relevant information to everyone at the same time — making for a more equitable marketplace but, some argue, a more volatile one as well. Without the security of back-channel communication with Wall Street, Chambers shouldn't be talking as freely with the press as he is. His public comments, along with quarterly earnings reports, are investors' only window into the company, and the market has come to hang on his every word. With Cisco facing its first prolonged rough patch, someone needs to tell Chambers to choose his words more carefully — and, in some cases, consider not talking at all. Investors, meanwhile, don't know what to think anymore. Cisco still dominates its business, but sales are slowing, and rivals like Juniper Networks (JNPR) are nipping at its heels. With analysts clearly behind the curve, and with Chambers contradicting himself every 30 days, who can they listen to? Should they even bother? Cisco shares have lost nearly 80% in the last year, yet even at their current $15 or so they may not be cheap. Morgan Stanley's Stix says there could still be some downside to come. Using Cisco's historical price/earnings ratio of 41, Cisco shares should be trading at $13 right now, while on the basis of its historical P/E relative to the Standard & Poor's 500, it would trade at $12. Stix thinks that Cisco ultimately will bottom out at $8 to $10, based on the company's average forward P/E of 29 from 1993-98. Wall Street sure has turned on its former darling. Making things right at this point will be a challenge — with or without Marlin Fitzwater.
