Abstract

Conglomerate business organizations have become the subject of articles in nearly all business papers lately. This type of organization was something of a phenomenon in the 1950's and early 1960's. The middle and late 1960's has witnessed its growth to maturity and perhaps the beginning of its demise of • • •. The conglomerate movement seems to have run into some considerable opposition lately, however. Bank managements have caught the conglomerate fever much to the annoyance of Federal legislators who seem determined to thwart the diversification efforts of banking officers. The "old line" conglomerate may also run afoul of the Washington lawmakers who foresee a possible zaibatsu economy emerging if the conglomerate movement is not restrained.
