The Shadow Side of Capital: Four Generations Kam Brothers Iron and Steel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781790652570)

The name Kam had been linked with the Dutch steel trade since 1869. In The Shadow Side of Capital, Dirk Kam, the author and last descendant of the Kam family connected to Kam Brothers takes the reader on a highly personal journey through the history of the company and does not hesitate to lift the curtain on the ups and downs of this typically Dutch family concern. In addition, for more than one hundred years, Kam Brothers did business with Bohemia, Moravia, Czechoslovakia, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, both before and after the Velvet Revolution.Convinced that the material benefits of a family business do not trump the non-pecuniary damage that such a possession can bring a family, Dirk Kam decided to sell the family business in 2010.An informative, honest and thereby unique story of steel and capital from the heir to a Rotterdam steel empire.
