PI 400 -- Financial Printing - It's Been a Bear of a Year

"Without question, 2001 has been a challenging year for the financial printing industry," admits Paul Masterton, president for R.R. Donnelley Financial.

"On the capital markets side, this has been the most formidable year for financial printing since the stock market crash of 1987. This was true even prior to the tragedies of September 11, and the uncertainty that has followed," he adds.
