Review on 3i Group by Aditya Wheeler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

3i is one of the few firms in the world that have managed to implement a fully automated and fully functional electronic cash handling system using a computer network

3i Group is a British multi-national private equity and venture capital firm based in London, United Kingdom. The name is derived from the fact that the company is majority owned by the founder, Nick Cahn, who also acts as a director of the business. 3i is ranked on the London Stock Exchange and has a member of the FTSE 100. This investment firm was founded by Cahn in 1985 and until recently, it has been advancing a number of technologies that can improve the efficiency of the banking system. The system was designed and developed by Cahn and his team, which have resulted in the successful completion of this project. The system has made use of the latest technological advances such as a highly advanced computer network which is able to track all transactions and determine the difference between what is owed to the bank and what is due to the client. This has significantly reduced the number of disputes that arise due to mismatches between the amount of money that a customer owes and the amount that he or she has actually received. 3i Group is also well-known for its fund development and is well-known for having handled projects that have increased the liquidity of commercial lines and have helped improve the efficiency with which credit is granted in many parts of the world.

3i manages its funds through a series of investment tools that have enabled it to accumulate a large cash amount and acquire a good market position. The company uses a special financing method called the London mutual funds concept. Under this method, investors who contribute to the fund are protected even if their investment does not succeed. As a result, they are able to maintain a steady cash flow that enables them to carry out other projects related to developing the company's business.
