Bowles Hollowell Conner & Co. (BHC) co-founder Erskine Bowles recalls the early days of the middle market, when others turned their noses up at “dinky deals,” in this video conversation with Mergers & Acquisitions editor-in-chief Mary Kathleen Flynn. Bowles and Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wyo.) delivered a keynote address at ACG InterGrowth 2013, in which they outlined their view of the U.S. economy.
