- What Led to the Big Deal Era in the 1980's?; 1992
- Description
- John Mullen, a vice president of RJ Reynolds, explores the reasons for the Big Deal activity on Wall Street in the 1980s, culminating with the buyout of RJ Reynolds by KKR in 1988. He noted that two symbiotic factors contributed: junk bond financing and greed, both exemplified in the person of Michael Milken. The paper discusses Milken’s rise to power and its conjunction with changes in the securities industry and other sectors of finance.
