ABOUT TIBURON STRATEGIC ADVISORS
Tiburon was formed in 1998 to offer market research, strategy consulting, and other related services primarily to financial services firms. Three of Tiburon's core clientele groups are the CEOs and other senior executives of large US financial institutions faced with difficult strategic decisions, leading executives of foreign financial institutions trying to understand and/or enter the US markets, and a long list of venture capital and private equity firms, and investment banks, making investments in, and executing transactions in, areas where Tiburon has developed proprietary insights. Tiburon rarely serves financial advisors themselves, but due to their growth, many of its client projects require the firm to study the financial advisory markets.
Tiburon's Managing Principal Charles ("Chip") Roame learned and developed the firm's consulting methodologies while employed at leading management consulting firm McKinsey & Company, adapted them to specifically serve the financial services marketplace, and then most recently before forming Tiburon, applied them as a business strategist at The Charles Schwab Corporation. Since 1998, Chip has had responsibility for all of Tiburon's consulting, research, and marketing activities.

The End of an Era: Incandescent Light Bulb Factories Closing
2010-09-21
The 2007 energy conservation measure passed by Congress set standards to essentially ban incandescent lights by 2013, requiring households to make the switch to more energy efficient lights. According to recent news, the last major General Electric factory in the United States is closing this month, marking an end to a fixture that has been lighting homes since the 1870s. With incandescents out, fluorescent lamps and CFLs continue to grow in popularity, providing energy and greenhouse gas emission savings.

Incandescent Lights Result in More Mercury Pollution Than Fluorescents
2010-09-21
In addition to carefully recycling products that contain mercury, we can reduce mercury pollution by reducing our energy consumption. Because mercury is a byproduct of burning coal, coal-fired power plants are one of the largest sources of mercury pollution. Because incandescent bulbs use several times more electricity over their lifetimes, they require far more power generation and, ultimately, result in more mercury emission than fluorescents. With the coming "maximal achievable technology" clean air standards, it is fully expected that mercury emissions will have to ...
Understand How Auto Insurance Rates Are Determined
2010-09-21
Auto insurance companies go to great lengths in order to assess the levels of risk posed by motorists. The formulas developed by insurers usually end up being so complex and vary so greatly among companies that it might be hard for a consumer to understand what factors could have led to the determination of his or her rates. But, by looking at the provisions of a California state law that has been in place since 1988, consumers can get a better idea of what insurers are looking at when calculating their premiums.
Voters in the end of the 1980s passed proposition 103 ...
