Working on Wall St or anywhere that job turnover is high, it’s difficult to keep track of who is where. This was before LinkedIn and Facebook, though I don’t think either of them could replace a serendipitous meeting at a trade show. SIA, now SIFMA (Securities Industry & Financial Markets Association) was really the best place to reconnect and find out who was doing what. It gave people who otherwise wouldn’t talk a convenient way to do so. I’d bet a significant number of job changes and affairs resulted.
