Talk:Bloomberg L.P./Archives/2019

Name?

After reading the last section of the article, I'm confused. Is the official name Bloomberg L.P. or Bloomberg Finance Three L.P.? If the former, does that mean the name was changed and changed back at some point? It seems odd to have a mention of the name being amended to Bloomberg Finance Three L.P with no other mention of that name anywhere in the article. 68.142.180.84 (talk) 20:04, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

Suggested Addition

I have a COI but am making a suggested Addition to the profile for Bloomberg LP (under products and services).

Valuation in history section

The following sentence has two issues: "In late 1996, Bloomberg bought back one-third of Merrill Lynch's 30 percent stake in the company for $200 million, valuing the company at $9 billion."

First, there is no reference. Second, the math doesn't work out: one-third of a 30 percent stake is 10 percent. $200 million for 10 percent implies the firm's total value is $2 billion, not $9 billion. I'm hesitant to correct the math without a reference in case it's the $200 million for 10 percent that is wrong, rather than the $9 billion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.251.162.221 (talk) 23:33, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
