As to the Fund and Investments

I would like to share my sheer bemusement at the reporting I am looking over from this bank.

By their internal accounts, I can't tell what kind of depositors they have, but in their assets, I know the value of towels bought for branches and headquarters.

I have to say, this is the sheer sign of a nudgey little accountant not knowing what an investor would care about. Towels. I suppose were the towels line huge, one might be concerned. Now, I am sure, on the towels line we really mean, Towels and Other Things Like Towels, but nevertheless, a fine example of the culture of reporting not being well understood.
