	In Praise of Ideology
		Maurice Saatchi's very understandable disdain for the state of politics today leads him to a correct, albeit simplified, analysis of the death of ideology.
		Saatchi also laments that in the opinion of so many, America has changed from 'benign to malign' and implores the US to answer with a consistent (and liberal) response.
		Saatchi wants a political system in which debates are framed on the basis of competing ideologies.

	The Collector: Charles Saatchi (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Saatchi, of course, is an advertising wizard, the founder with his younger brother Maurice of the huge firm of Saatchi & Saatchi.
		Saatchi is vastly controversial in London, which is not surprising; the British, forever hemming and hawing, have never been comfortable with either vanguard art or undiluted ambition.
		Saatchi has been called the most active art collector in England since King Charles I. Nonetheless, many people in London dislike Charles the Second, as I was reminded the other day, when I was sent a 90-minute documentary about the Saatchi brothers that was recently broadcast on Britain's Channel 4.

	Company seeks international clients, especially in Europe : Saatchi brothers outline IPO
		While MandC Saatchi's business has been growing and the company is profitable, analysts say it has suffered in the competition for global clients because it has been stuck in limbo between the small "hot shops" known for their creativity and the global agency networks owned by such holding companies as Omnicom, Interpublic and WPP Group.
		Saatchi and Saatchi was once the biggest advertising agency in the world, but Maurice Saatchi was pushed out of the leadership role in 1994 by shareholders who were upset about the company's financial performance.
		Saatchi and Saatchi was later split up, with the agency operating under that name going to Publicis and other remnants now owned by WPP.

		That death knell was tolling for advertising, as announced in a speech ("The strange death of modern advertising") that Lord Saatchi gave at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival.
		Saatchi is embracing the alleged trend towards attentional fragmentation, not fighting it.
		The trouble is, Saatchi has already stretched his gospel of monotheistic lexicography to a three-word slogan and a thousand-word speech.

	Saatchis prepare to make their stock market comeback Independent, The (London) - Find Articles
		M&C Saatchi, the agency behind slogans such as "The world's favourite airline" and "Australians wouldn't give a XXXX for anything else", is planning to raise pounds 10m from selling a minority stake in a stock market listing that would value the group at about pounds 75m.
		The pair seemed destined for disaster when their Saatchi & Saatchi empire met a sticky end in the mid-1990s, brought down by a fatal combination of hubristic greed and the after effects of Black Monday.
		Maurice, he added, "is more aware than most of the difference this time round because he was instrumental in designing a modus operandi that is totally contrasting with the old one".

		Charles and Maurice are the sons of an Iraqi Jew who emigrated to London in 1947, where he owned textile mills.
		In 1970, at 27 and 25, respectively, they pooled their talents to create Saatchi & Saatchi, hiring such future luminaries as Tim Bell, whose public-relations firm now represents the cream of British society, and Martin Sorrell, now chairman of rival WPP Group.

		Lord Saatchi's apparently innocuous line of questioning on Wednesday, while Iain Duncan Smith was still Tory leader, hardly registered with the secretaries, who had no idea they were dining with a central figure in the bloodless coup which brought Michael Howard to power.
		Modernising Tories have high hopes for Saatchi because they believe that, in the seven years since being ennobled in 1996, he has thought long and hard about what the party needs to do if it is ever to return to power.
		Believing that Saatchi and Saatchi were untouchable, he massively over-reached himself in 1987 with an abortive bid for the Midland Bank.

		Maurice Lévy is not an especially religious man, but pride of place in his office overlooking the Arc de Triomphe in central Paris is given to a charred copy of a 17th-century Bible in Hebrew and French.
		The Saatchi brothers had been ousted five years previously; major clients had been lost and the agency was in danger of imploding.

	INSEAD KNOWLEDGE - The Fall and Rise of the Brothers Saatchi
		By using continuous earnings growth to fund a voracious acquisitions campaign throughout the decade, Maurice and Charles Saatchi's "big is beautiful" mentality saw their agency grow from its founding a modest consultancy in 1970, to one of the ad world's major players in a mere 15 years.
		They strove to be able to identify comparable customer segments irrespective of national boundaries, and wanted to be able to offer clear advantages in terms of economies of scale and cost sharing, as well as being able to provide effective servicing for their global accounts.
		The Saatchi upstarts were a blatant threat to all that, with their belief that volume was essential for getting the visibility needed to attract the right clients and executives.

		Under pressure from shareholders upset by the company's performance, Maurice Saatchi was pushed out of the leadership role at Saatchi and Saatchi in 1994; he was soon followed by his brother and by Muirhead and the two others who went on to found MandC Saatchi, David Kershaw and Jeremy Sinclair.

		LORD Maurice Saatchi and the other members of the MandC Saatchi board were in town this week to mark the fifth anniversary of the agency and to pat the local management team, particularly Asia Pacific chairman Tom Dery, on the back.
		A media conference held in the American Club on Sydney's Macquarie Street on Wednesday learned that Maurice, far from regretting the manner of he and his brother's departure from Saatchi and Saatchi--the first agency they founded and took to public float--and their abrupt launch of MandC Saatchi--regards it as "a happy accident".
		Maurice offered two veiled remarks about the agency he once directed, saying Saatchi and Saatchi, now part of the Publicis family (as is MandC Saatchi), is "in better hands" than it was under its former parent Cordiant.

		Saatchi's moves sent the advertising world into an uproar and Saatchi & Saatchi stock into a nosedive; it ended last week at 102p on the London Stock Exchange, around 35% below its price in mid-December.
		Saatchi & Saatchi CEO Charles Scott and his backers scrambled to put the best face on the setback.

		A fight against injustice and a destination are also tests of their convictions, argues Lord Saatchi in the Centre for Policy Studies pamphlet.
		Lord Saatchi said he hoped that by applying his tests the Tories would "avoid a situation in which the leader's life at the top only lasts for 18 months".
		His comments about human dignity and belief in the 'free and independent individual' are absolutely spot on and are a marked contrast to the impression the current government gives of wanting to monitor our every move while giving the greatest assistance to those unwilling to help themselves and penalising everyone else.

		My first reaction to Lord Saatchi's speech at Cannes on the death of modern advertising was, "what utter rubbish," however once I listened to Maurice Saatchi's speech on the BBC world service, read the article published in the Financial Times and shifted through his question and answer session on the FT.com site.

		Almost three decades ago, the market provided finance to the legendary Maurice and Charles Saatchi, which for a while allowed them to turn their first agency, Saatchi & Saatchi, into the world's biggest and most famous.
		Lord (Maurice) Saatchi, 57, plays a fairly limited role because his position as co-chairman of the Conservative Party is time-consuming.

	Maurice Saatchi on soundbites \| Samizdata.net
		In a swipe at William Hague, who scoffed at the "slickness" of New Labour, Lord Saatchi said that the Tories should embrace the new media age by overcoming two key "myths" — that soundbites and focus groups are wrong.
		But, given the scorn which both the Conservative Party and the Labour Party have heaped upon them at this blog, I perhaps ought some time soon to do a posting about why party politics, disgusting though it is, does make some difference.

		In hindsight, the mistake the U.S. fund managers made was to treat Saatchi & Saatchi as a traditional company, with clear boundaries defined by its assets.
