Talk:Rhône Group

Verifiability
I've done some checking and re-writing on this article, following the recent incident of edit-warring by an editor who is now blocked. The editor was partly correct: there was a lot of marketing fluff and unreferenced claims. That's mostly been cleaned up now, but WP:SPAs keep getting created daily, re-adding the same unreferenced back in, using an oddly similar set of references that mention Rhône Group but don't support the assertions made. So the page will need monitoring to maintain WP:Neutral point of view and WP:Verifiability. Gurt Posh (talk) 13:13, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Value of Funds Managed
The infobox about Rhone Group lists the value of the investment fund as $1 bn. The source of this value is an article from the Oil and Gas Financial Journal from 2010. However, this Forbes page from 2012 says the value of the fund is $8.5bn.

Is there any reason why this page is using the Oil and Gas Financial Journal value? Would it be better to mention both values somewhere in the article? User:Spacevezontalk 14:47, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Rhone Group llc vs Rhone Group llp
Rhone Group LLC is a different company from Rhone Group LLP.

This page appears to be about Rhone Group LLC, which is a private equity firm based in New York.

On the other hand, the information in the infobox regarding the total assets and revenue of Rhone Group have been taken from a Duedil page about a different but related company, Rhone Group LLP, which is a much smaller firm based in London.

Is it misleading to use the statistics for Rhone Group LLP to represent Rhone Group LLC? I'd love to hear some views. User:Spacevezontalk 10:57, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It's the same company, have a look at the board of directors. By law, the same books are filed in every country of a businesses operation. http://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/ltd/rhone-capital-management-llp and here are both Rhone Group LLP and Rhone Group LLC mentioned synonymously in the same SEC filings, ie http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/vprr/02/9999999997-02-040362

I don't quite understand - how can a company which is a limited liability partnership be the same company as a company which is a limited liability company? I wouldn't describe myself as an authority on the topic, but I don't believe that a company can simultaneously be a LLC and a LLP. Perhaps the two companies just share the same board of directors?

Also, it would be very unusual if an SEC filing used Rhone Group LLP and Rhone Group LLC synonymously. When I looked at the filing, I couldn't find any examples of synonymous use. Could you point some out for me? Thanks, User:Spacevezontalk 17:03, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
