omen formed new businesses five times faster than businesses in general in the past nine years, but still face significant obstacles. “There are still barriers to women achieving success,” said Anne Janiak, executive director of the Women’s Enterprise Development Center in White Plains. While conditions have improved, “stereotypes still exist.” Women now own 11.2 million businesses nationally, according to a new study by American Express OPEN, a payment card issuer for small businesses. They employ 9 million people and generate more than $1.6 trillion in revenue. The number of women-owned

firms increased by 45 percent from 2007 to 2016, compared with 9 percent among all businesses. Women own 39,870 businesses in Westchester County and 34,959 in Fairfield County. They represented about one-third of all private-sector businesses in the two counties, slightly less than the national average. Much of the progress can be explained by 30 years of cultural and demographic changes, according to Julie Weeks, a market research and public policy adviser who wrote the report. “Years ago, fewer than half of our mothers worked,” she said. “Now pretty much everybody’s mother works outside the home.” As more women participate in the labor force, they develop contacts, gain managerial experience » WOMEN, page 8

Touro opening dental school in Westchester BY JOHN GOLDEN

he first acceptance letters are being sent to prospective students in the first graduating class at Touro College of Dental Medicine at New York Medical College, which will open this summer in a former IBM office building

in Hawthorne next to the medical college’s Grasslands campus in Valhalla. The 100,000-square-foot facility, half of which will house a 132chair community dental clinic staffed by faculty and students, will be the fifth school for health care professionals operated in New York by Touro College and University

System, a fast-expanding, nonprofit Jewish institution headquartered in Manhattan. Touro in 2011 acquired New York Medical College from the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York in a $60 million deal. With its first class of an anticipated 110 students entering this summer, the dental school at 19 Skyline Drive will be the fifth operating in New York state and the first to open in the state since 1968, when the Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine joined the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine as the state’s only publicly funded schools training dentists. In the metropolitan area, it will vie for students with Stony

Brook and two private institutions, Columbia University College of Dental Medicine and New York University College of Dentistry, as well as with the Rutgers School of Dental Medicine in Newark. New York’s statewide population has increased by 4.5 million people in the nearly half a century since the last dentistry school opened, according to Touro officials. In deciding to start a new dental school, Touro officials “saw synergy with our overall health sciences system,” said Dr. Alan Kadish, president of Touro College and University System, in a phone interview with the Business Journal.

“We saw a nationwide need for dentists. We saw demand by undergraduates” for dentistry programs. And Touro officials saw a need for more dental care in rural areas and underserved communities in this region, Kadish said. “With dental health care as the foothold of good overall health care, it is important that this area of professional health care education continues to grow,” Kadish said in Touro’s announcement of the opening. “Fortunately, the dental school’s location on the New York Medical College campus will create invaluable opportunities for interdisciplinary training.” » TOURO, page 8

“Shouldn’t you decide what will become of your business?”

Bruce F. Hoffmeister Senior Wealth Strategist Bruce has more than two decades of experience in estate and financial planning for closely held business owners and their families. He is part of a seasoned team of professionals who exemplify Wilmington Trust’s 113-year heritage of successfully advising business owners. Our goal is to help you create a plan for each stage of your business and your life, offering key insights at critical times of transition.

Heads of successful family businesses are often reluctant to share control and involve other family members in the management process. But do you know what would happen to your business if you suddenly became incapacitated or worse, passed away? Who would step in to manage day-to-day operations? And even if you have a successor in mind, is that successor ready and capable of stepping up and running the business? Starting early. Ideally, succession planning should begin the day you take over a business. Of course, that isn’t always realistic given the amount of work running a business takes, but succession planning needs to be a top priority. Most importantly, you will need to decide if you want to keep the business in the family or eventually sell it. Looking down the road. To make the important decisions, you have to think about how you envision your retirement. You’ll need to determine if you want to be actively involved in the business in some capacity for the remainder of your life. You should ask yourself if you want to be chairman of the board and collect the net income. And

you should know whether the business will generate sufficient cash flow to support you and your family in retirement.

ColumbiaDoctors unveils new Tarrytown location BY ALEESIA FORNI

aforni@westfairinc.com

fter a four-month soft opening, ColumbiaDoctors unveiled its new $10 million medical center in Tarrytown on April 20, continuing the trend of major metropolitan hospitals and health systems expanding their reach in Westchester. ColumbiaDoctors is the faculty practice of Columbia University Medical Center, one of the campuses of NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.

Christopher S. Ahmad

The 20,000-square-foot facility at 155 White Plains Road is in a previously vacant 70,000-square-foot building that once served as offices for typewriter manufacturer Olivetti. It’s about a mile from the Tappan Zee Bridge and features 24 exam rooms and three consult rooms, with specialties including cardiology, neurology and psychiatry. The space also hosts imaging facilities to administer CT scans, MRIs, X-ray and ultrasound exams. A radiology center is expected to open early this summer. “What’s unusual about radiology is that we will have more services under one roof than any other facility in the area, aside from a hospital,” said Kristin O’Meara, faculty liaison and patient access manager for ColumbiaDoctors. The space is the largest of the 13 ColumbiaDoctors locations in Westchester, including its facilities in Briarcliff Manor, Buchanan, Croton-on-Hudson, Eastchester, Hartsdale, Hawthorne, Ossining, Pleasantville, Scarsdale, Sleepy Hollow, Somers and White Plains. Practice administrator Nancy Objay said during a recent tour of the facility that compared with a hospital, the Tarrytown medical center is a “more pleasurable experience for a patient.” The location allows patients access to “the physicians that you’d normally have to trek

down to the city (to see), you’re getting them right here, close to home,” she said, adding that free parking is also a perk. Most of the doctors will take appointments one to two days per week in the Tarrytown location. Along with conducting their own research, physicians of ColumbiaDoctors also serve as teachers. “They’re the people who write the book, which is another key advantage over some of our competitors … they’re teaching students how to do this and they’re writing and doing the research that informs treatments,” O’Meara said. One such doctor is Christopher S. Ahmad, a professor of orthopedic surgery and an attending physician at NewYork-Presbyterian/ Columbia University Medical Center. He also serves as the head team physician for the New York Yankees. “The need existed and we responded to that need,” Ahmad said of the Tarrytown location. “People wanted to have the New York City specialists.” “Now you can get the same doctors right here in Westchester,” he said. Anna-Christina Bevelaqua, an assistant professor in rehabilitation medicine at Columbia, agreed that the new offices will make patients’ lives easier. “I think it’s really convenient for a lot of our patients who before were traveling all the way to the city, into Washington Heights to the main hospital,” she said. “This just makes it so much more convenient for them.” “I’m seeing an orthopedic surgeon as a patient today who lives in Westchester and prefers to see me here than at the medical center,” Ahmad said. “And he works at the medical center.” The Tarrytown office is primarily a clinical location, as opposed to a major teaching site or surgery facility. Many of its doctors perform surgeries at New York-Presbyterian/ Lawrence Hospital in Bronxville, a facility that is set to open the doors of a $60 million surgery and oncology pavilion later this year. “It’s really about the community setting,” O’Meara said, “for older patients especially.” New York-Presbyterian also plans to lease space at the Tarrytown location for general practitioner offices. There are also plans to expand the medical center’s offerings to include internal medicine and pediatric subspecialty practices, as well as installing a physical therapy gym at the location in the “foreseeable future,” O’Meara said.

BY HUGH BAILEY

he mall era is supposed to be over. Rather than build massive enclosed shopping centers amid a sea of parking lots, developers across the region have looked increasingly toward walkable mixed-use districts, with homes, businesses and shopping on top of one another. To some extent, the numbers bear this out. From 2000 to 2009, an average of about 18.2 million square feet of mall space came online nationally, according to CoStar Group. Last year, it was down to 3.4 million. In the midst of those trends, Trumbull in recent years has completed more than $35 million in renovations to the Westfield Trumbull mall, with successful businesses such as the Apple store and Cheesecake Factory continuing to count on the shopping center’s success. Even more dramatically, Norwalk could soon see construction of a 700,000-plussquare-foot enclosed shopping center on one of its most highly visible tracts. While malls elsewhere may be dying, Norwalk is staking much of its future growth on one. And despite troubles elsewhere in the sector, there are indications this project, with its choice anchor stores, favorable demographics and desirable location, is on solid footing. “There’s a broad perception that malls are dying, and that is the case in some places,” said Ryan McCullough, senior real estate economist with CoStar Group. “But the productivity is quite good on about 80 percent of malls, and the leasing is solid on many new properties.” The malls with the best outlook have attributes that will be found in bulk at The SoNo Collection, as the mall planned by Chicago-based General Growth Properties will be known. “The most important factor, beyond location, is who your tenants are,” McCullough said. “Who the tenants are can go a long way in predicting how a mall is going to do. The second factor beyond that is demographics.” According to GGP, Norwalk is in the middle of one of the most desirable markets in the country, and “1 out of 5 households in the trade area are among the top 1 percent of Americans in terms of wealth.” The mall’s location could hardly be more visible, at the meeting point of Interstate 95 and Route 7, with 150,000 cars traveling by the site daily. And it will have some of the highest-level stores of any shopping center around, with Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s as anchors.

MALLS ADAPT Trends in mall construction in some ways mirror wider tendencies in favor of car-centered development. The postwar era, which led to the dominance of suburbs accessible only by automobile, brought about the dominance of the fortress-style shopping mall placed far from a city center. In recent years, younger people are showing less inclination to own a car. Development trends, capitalizing to some degree on a nationwide drop in crime, are increasingly focused on center cities. Malls have been forced to adapt. “The notion of walkability matters,” said Maureen McAvey, of the Urban Land Institute, adding that people want malls to have plenty of amenities, just like they would want in a city neighborhood. “Many are now offering more services, sometimes including community space, and in some cases there are health facilities inside the mall,” she said. “We see malls nationally that in some cases have a library inside, or a theater, and not just a cinema.” Drawing people away from their computers is a challenge, she said. “Given that the internet offers so much competition, people need to find other reasons to come to the mall,” McAvey said. “It has to be a real attraction.” GGP’s website promises that the SoNo Collection will be “more than a mall; it will be a collection of unique and memorable experiences that will keep shoppers coming back frequently. A marketplace for residents to spend an entire day, it will offer restaurants, coffee shops, exercise and wellness classes, and of course, access to the latest trends in upscale fashion.” Food is another big draw in successful malls, she said. “Malls are moving away from the fast food you’d find in a food court,” McAvey said, adding that nationally up to 30 percent of people go to a mall expressly for a meal. “Now

you see food in different places around the mall, placed strategically.” ECONOMIC BOOST GGP has 120 malls nationwide, second only to Simon Property Group, according to Green Street Advisors, a real estate research firm. While anchor stores drive traffic to a mall, some 80 percent of sales are generated by other retailers. Far from a standalone, Norwalk’s mall is meant to bridge the gap between SoNo to the south and a restaurant-heavy district above it. It is designed to be a part of the urban fabric, not the standalone model of a previous generation. “This is going to be a tremendous boost to the Norwalk economy,” Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling said last month when a rendering of the plan was released. “You’re going to be bringing a lot of people into Norwalk, and when people ... see what we have to offer, they’re not just going to be ‘one stop and go.’” McCullough, of CoStar Group, said this idea is also in line with current trends. “Where retail is looking quite good is in urban locations,” he said. “But usually the path of growth is very limited as to how quickly can you build there.” An open lot like the one where Norwalk’s mall will be built is hard to find. “Retail development is headed more toward the downtown, walkable, urban variety,” McCullough said. “Sometimes we see malls trying to create their own density, sometimes with hotels and office space included.” The SoNo Collection, in fact, is also to include a 170-room hotel and parking for nearly 3,000 cars. “Some malls are struggling, and we don’t think in many cases there’s much of a rescue plan in place,” McCullough said. “But the idea that the mall is dying we think is a myth.” Hugh Bailey is a reporter for Hearst Connecticut Media Group.

Realtors association supports equal housing opportunities for all

s we celebrate the 48th anniversary of the federal Fair Housing Act of 1968 and the progress that has been made, sadly, we must recognize that after nearly five decades illegal discrimination in housing is a crime that still exists today. The Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors (HGAR) applauds Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s recent proposal to expand state fair housing protections on the basis of gender identity, as well as the governor’s partnership with Westchester Residential Opportunities (WRO) through its Fair Housing Enforcement Program. I’m proud to note that Realtors incorporated gender identity as a protected class in our code of ethics in 2014. All Realtors subscribe to the Realtor code of ethics, which holds fair and equal service for all among its core tenets. HGAR members receive regular updates as to new developments in fair housing law. Realtors have continuing education pro-

Richard Haggerty

grams available to them to help ensure that they understand the law in their practice of real estate. We support measured government efforts to root out housing discrimination. It is our hope the governor’s program will serve as a great reminder to sellers, non-Re-

altor real estate licensees and landlords that housing discrimination will not and cannot be tolerated. HGAR has had a close collaborative relationship with Westchester Residential Opportunities for many years. WRO is a notfor-profit organization whose mission is to promote equal, affordable and accessible housing opportunities throughout the lower Hudson River Valley. In addition to providing fair housing training for HGAR members, WRO also provides a fair housing helpline and other resources to advance fair housing compliance. Realtors see on a daily basis the fulfillment that comes with homeownership and that inspires us to be become advocates for consumers who are striving to achieve the American Dream of homeownership or in renting a place to call their own. Realtor anti-discrimination efforts include advocating for greater transparency in the process of approving cooperative housing purchases. Today, co-op boards can deny the sale of a co-op that has been agreed

to by the seller and the buyer and may do so without giving a reason for denial. Even more troubling is the fact that a co-op board has no obligation to act within a specific timeframe. The board’s inaction can have the effect of a buyer losing their financing. Realtors have proposed a change to current law requiring co-op boards to respond to applications, which would reduce the potential for discrimination to occur. The Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors vigorously supports the ideal that no one should be discriminated against based on race, color, national origin, disability or familial status as well as the additional protected classes under New York state law, including sexual orientation, military status, age or being a victim of domestic violence. We believe in building strong, diverse communities where all are welcome. Richard Haggerty is CEO of the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors in White Plains. He can be reached at Richard.

and cultivate an entrepreneurial spirit. They also have achieved higher levels of education. Many have earned degrees in fields that lend themselves to launching businesses, such as law, accounting and marketing. “Women want to chart their own path,” said Fran Pastore, chief executive officer of the Women’s Business Development Council in Stamford. “I see a lot of women who have fled the glass ceiling corporate environment and taken their expertise to start their own businesses,” she said. “They are finding ways to do something they love, to have control over their financial destiny and make a living doing it.” Wendy Wollner, founder and president of Balancing Life’s Issues Inc., a national training company based in Ossining, said running a business is challenging. “It’s very common to be in a room with 99 percent men at business meetings, and they still ask what am I doing there.” She gives herself seven seconds to establish her credentials — continual revenue growth, 10 employees, a network of 1,000 trainers nationally, contracts with Fortune 500 companies — just to be taken seriously.

Kadish said New York Medical College this fall will extend Sunshine Cottage Road on the Grasslands campus to connect the Skyline Drive facility with the main campus. New York Medical College three years ago paid $17.5 million to acquire the vacant 5-story, approximately 248,000-square-foot office building at 19 Skyline Drive in Mack-Cali Realty Corp.’s Mid-Westchester Executive Park. Kadish said 100,000 square feet of space will be used for the dental school, with 25,000 square feet of shared facilities and the remaining office space used by the medical school. Touro will spend an estimated $25 million to $30 million for property acquisition and construction. The dental school’s community clinic space will not be built until the third year of operation, Kadish noted. In addition to those costs, Touro’s start-up expenses for the dental school will total $10 million to $20 million, he said. Touro in February was awarded a matching grant of $2,075,000 for the dental school project from the state Higher Education Capital Matching Grant Program. The program is administered by the Dormitory Authority State of New York, which in 2014 approved approximately $32.5 million in

Council of Westchester Hall of Fame on April 19, said that one way to be taken seriously is to sign up for every course in your field, participate in programs and get to “know more than the competition.” Last year the Women’s Enterprise Development Center worked with 1,666 women in workshops, seminars, counseling and training programs. More than 100 clients graduated from its 60-hour entrepreneurial training program. Among the graduates of its 2013 program, two-thirds started businesses and nearly all survived two years. “We can give them the tools that help them build their business,” Janiak said. A closer look at the success of women-owned businesses also reveals the fragility of their achievements. Women own 38 percent of all private-sector businesses, according to the American Express study, but employ only 8 percent of the workforce and generate only 4 percent of the nation’s business revenue. American Express based its estimates on surveys of business owners that are done every five years by the U.S. Census Bureau and on gross domestic product numbers and extrapolated trends from 2002 to 2012. Most of the firms have no employees

bond financing for Touro primarily for the Skyline Drive purchase and building renovations project. Kadish said the school will offer a 4-year pre-doctoral program for students leading to the DDS degree, a continuing education program for practicing dentists, and the community clinic. He said Touro has an agreement with Open Door Family Medical Centers, the community health care provider based in Ossining, to supply additional dental care to Open Door’s patients in Westchester and Putnam counties. Kadish said he community clinic service might be extended to northern Bronx residents “depending on need and practicality.” Touro is looking to eventually open satellite clinics in the area, he said. First-year tuition and fees at the new dental school in Westchester will total $61,500; with room and board and other living expenses, a student’s costs are expected to total about $92,000, according to the Touro College of Dental Medicine website. By comparison, first-year tuition and fees at the Columbia University dental school total $84,480, and a student’s total expenses for the academic year amount to nearly $107,000. At the state’s Stony Brook dental school, total first-year costs for a New York resident amount to approximately $79,400,

other than the owners. Many are part-time ventures, meant to supplement another job or plug an income hole. There was a time when women couldn’t even get access to credit. They had to get a man — a husband, father, son, brother — to co-sign business loans. The Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974 made it illegal to base credit decisions on race, sex, marital status, age national origin. Yet, lack of access to capital is the number one reason women-owned businesses cannot grow and sustain themselves, Pastore said. “There is still a bias against women’s access to capital,” she said. Most new firms need $100,000 or less to

get started or expand. For instance, some government programs offer funding but require the applicant to make a matching investment that cash-strapped owners of startup firms can’t afford. Pastore’s organization is creating a microlending fund to fill the gap. Beginning with a $100,000 pool of money, the development council plans to make loans of $5,000 to $10,000 to business owners who don’t have access to credit. It hopes to build up a $3 million investment pool in the next few years. The only serious way to grow a business, according to one school of thought, Weeks said, is to “shoot for the stars,” to seek out venture capital, to emulate the story of somebody “who came out of nowhere to become the billion-dollar unicorn company of the year.” Instead, she thinks more attention should be paid to the everyday stories of women who identified opportunities and solved problems in their particular line of work. These role models share stories at the women’s business centers, friendly places where women learn the mechanics of starting a business and get the peer support of like-minded entrepreneurs. “That’s less sexy,” she said, “but every business is important for the health and vitality of the community.”

This Hawthorne office building will house the Touro College of Medicine.

while non-resident dental students can expect to pay about $109,400. Touro officials said the dental college also will conduct research projects on subjects that include how to reduce the cost of effective dental care and translational research that applies scientific discoveries to produce new devices and treatments for patients. Touro has named Dr. Jay P. Goldsmith as the dental school’s founding dean. An oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Goldsmith is a former professor, program director and deputy chief in New York Medical College’s Department of Dental Medicine. Dr. Edward F. Farkas has been named senior associate dean for clinical affairs and

chairman of dentistry at the dental college. Touro officials said Farkas, who practices general dentistry in New York City, “has been involved with the founding of the dental school from the outset.” Dr. Edward C. Halperin, chancellor and CEO of New York Medical College, in the announcement said the dental school’s location at the medical college campus “gives the school and its students a competitive edge.” At full capacity, the dental school will enroll about 440 students. Kadish said the school received 2,300 applications from students in January, from which 500 students were selected for interviews. Well under half of the applicants are New York state residents, he said.

United HealthCare bowing out of Connecticut health insurance exchange BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

nited Healthcare’s (UHC) announcement that it will exit Connecticut’s health insurance exchange may not necessarily adversely affect very many residents, but it may represent the first step in a major overhaul of Obamacare. UHC — the insurance wing of UnitedHealth Group, the largest writer of coverage in the U.S. — said in its quarterly earnings release on April 19 that it plans to withdraw from almost all Affordable Care Act state exchanges, including Connecticut’s Access Health CT (AHCT), by 2017. “The smaller overall market size and shorter-term higher risk profile within this market segment continue to suggest we cannot broadly serve it on an effective and sustained basis,” said United CEO Stephen Hemsley during the company’s quarterly earnings conference call.

“I THINK YOU’LL SEE OTHER CARRIERS GET OUT. BUT EVEN IF THEY STAY IN, WHAT DOES IT MEAN? AT WHAT PRICE TO CONSUMERS? THEY COULD RAISE RATES BY 25 TO 30 PERCENT.”

from the exchanges in Arkansas, Georgia and Michigan, and on April 15 it informed the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance of its withdrawal from that state’s exchange. The company has since confirmed TWB that it is also leaving Alabama, Colorado, Grant Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, WCBJ North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, 7.375” x 7.125” h Texas andwWashington. 4-4-16 “We do not have an update on New York at this time,” said UHC spokeswoman Maria Gordon-Shydlo. Connecticut officials moved quickly to reassure residents that they will not be left

out in the cold. In a statement, Lt. Governor Nancy Wyman, who also serves as chair of the AHCT board, said, “Health care exchanges throughout the country are impacted by United Healthcare’s decision, so first and foremost, we want to assure Connecticut customers that their health benefits remain unchanged through the end of the year. “We are confident that in the next open enrollment, all of our consumers will continue to find the health care plans that best meet their needs,” she continued. “State exchanges will have some fluctuation, but AHCT will continue to meet the needs of

Connecticut residents.” Added AHCT CEO Jim Wadleigh: “Be assured that the team at Access Health CT is dedicated to making this transition as smooth as possible as their customers reenter the marketplace in 2017. We will reach out to the consumers who auto-renew and help them choose a new plan. The Affordable Care Act creates a dynamic marketplace, which is exactly what we want for consumers.” The three other carriers that sell plans through AHCT — Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, ConnectiCare, and HealthyCT — have » UNITED, page 30

“Next year we will remain in only a handful of states, and we will not carry financial exposure from exchanges into 2017. We continue to remain an advocate for more stable and sustainable approaches to serving this market and those who rely on it for their care.” In January, UHC said it had lost approximately $475 million on ACA-compliant plans in 2015 and expected to lose more than $500 million this year, hinting at that time that it might begin pulling out of state exchanges. Which states will be among Hemsley’s remaining “handful” is unclear at the moment. United had earlier announced it would exit

“

Nurse helps men battle their demons

I have to go. I’ve got a code blue.” With those words, Laurel McCullagh abruptly ends a telephone conversation and hurries off to minister to a drug addict or alcoholic being treated at St. Christopher’s Inn at Graymoor in Garrison. McCullagh is director of nursing and admissions for the shelter, which offers ambulatory detox and rehabilitation to men. The clientele is housed at St. Christopher’s, a shelter on Graymoor property. “Living at home and coming in for treatment doesn’t always work,” she said. “In some households family members may drink or

use drugs, making staying clean a difficult challenge. In other cases the client has no place to go – perhaps the wife has thrown him out for alcoholism. Our outpatient withdrawal program offers the environment needed for one to detox and begin to embrace a life of change.” Heroin use is more prominent now among the population of St. Christopher’s Inn, McCullagh said. “In 2009, 18 percent of clients admitted using heroin. In 2015, 47 percent of admissions identify heroin as their primary drug. In 2009, 18 percent of clients admitted were between ages 18 to 25. In 2014, that number rose to 44 percent.” Laurel McCullagh

McCullagh said it takes a strong stomach to deal with some situations she has encountered. Recalling an admission of nearly a decade ago, she greeted a man “with the blankest expression I ever saw,” she said. “He reacted to nothing. There was no human connection. Working with our professional staff, he slowly opened up, divulging a history of horrific childhood sexual abuse. He and his sister had both been the victims of this abuse perpetrated by friends of the family. One particular day he shared a story so graphic that I couldn’t maintain a calm facial expression. He asked if I was okay and I decided to be honest and tell him that I felt like I was going to vomit. He replied, ‘That’s how I feel every day.’” The man is now clean and helping other addicts. “Sadly, his sister, also an alcoholic, was not able to conquer her demons,” she said. “She died a few years ago from liver failure, caused by her addiction.” McCullagh said more parental education in what to look for and how to handle it is needed in the community. She urges parents and spouses not to be enablers. “You think you are helping when you fix problems that substance abusers have created for themselves, but you only enable substance abusers to die,” she warned. “The more enablers take on, the angrier they become at spending their whole lives fixing everything. Enabling leads to anger and resentments, and in your anger, you are forced to endure a life meant to be enjoyed.” A West Nyack resident, McCullagh grew up in Massachusetts and New Jersey. Planning an advertising career, she enrolled in a program at SUNY Oneonta involving a final year of business study at the Fashion Institute of Technology. After receiving her bachelor’s degree she went to work for a publicity agency in Manhattan. “But, I craved something more fulfilling.” McCullagh’s journey to that fulfillment got off to a very painful start when she dropped a large typewriter on her foot at home. Her broken toes were treated at Pascack Valley Hospital where she was inspired by the nurse who treated her. She went back to school as a student in the nursing program at Rockland Community College and then went on to work at St. John’s Riverside Hospital in Yonkers. “I came to St. Christopher’s on the day before 9/11,” she said.

Astorino punches at Cuomo, Democrats over Indian Point, minimum wage BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

estchester County Executive Robert Astorino questioned the motives of critics of Indian Point Energy Center and maintained his criticism for a statewide minimum wage increase in a panel discussion on April 19. The discussion, hosted by Hudson Valley Pattern for Progress, a nonprofit economic think tank, featured Astorino, Putnam County Executive MaryEllen Odell and Rockland County Executive Ed Day. The executives addressed questions about their respective counties from a Jeopardy-style board at the Crowne Plaza in Suffern. Astorino’s first question involved Indian Point and critics, including Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who are calling for it to close. “I think it’s totally irresponsible to say ‘close Indian Point’ without a realistic plan to make up that energy source for the entire region’s needs,” said Astorino, a Republican in his second term.

Day and Odell, both Republicans, expressed similar concerns that the minimum wage increase could mean fewer jobs overall. “In a county where we are driven by Main Street, our business owners are struggling every day to keep the doors open,” Odell said. “I know the impact it’s going to have on our business community and they know it.” Astorino and Day were asked about the construction process of the new Tappan Zee bridge, the connector of the executive’s two counties. Again, Astorino used the question as a platform to question leadership in Albany. He said he has long advocated for a replacement to the Tappan Zee, but that more transparency is needed on the project’s financials. “I think the public has a right to know what the ultimate cost of this bridge is, how it’s going to be financed and what your toll is going to be,” Astorino said. “But it is a great project and has put a lot of people to work.” The state sent $700 million from its 2016 budget to the state Thruway Authority to help with infrastructure costs, including construc-

Astorino said politics are driving the calls to close the nuclear plant. “If we’re going to grow, and the county has grown… you need a source of energy,” Astorino said. “So to close that and pray that it is sunny every day for solar isn’t going to happen.” He added that he does view solar and wind energy as “part of the mix,” but it would be impossible to shut Indian Point without a spike in rates or a slowing of growth. On the issue of a $15 minimum wage, which was passed in the state budget and will start in Westchester County in six years, Astorino continued his opposition to a central policy of Cuomo’s. Astorino, who ran against Cuomo in the 2014 election, called the policy “destructive to New York state.” “Economics will always trump ideology in the long term,” Astorino said. “So the irony is, those who they are really trying to help, ostensibly, are going to be hurt the most. Those with lower skills, lower wages right now, poor, minorities… those economic opportunities are going to be taken away.”

tion of the bridge, which a Cuomo representative told The Journal News could hold off a rate hike until 2020. Speculation started in 2012 that the toll could reach as high as $14, a number Cuomo was also against. Day said that a price that high would be unacceptable. “What happens when someone starts heading toward the bridge and they are facing a $15 toll?” Day said. “Do they continue over to a place like Palisades Center, which provides 22 percent of our sales tax revenue, or do they make a sudden left turn and go down to Ridge Hill?” For a final question, Astorino was asked about the continued population growth in New York City and whether he wanted Westchester to be a part of that growth. While he cautioned that he is not looking to make the county New York City’s “sixth borough,” growth could be good if done correctly. “Anyone that wants to come to Westchester from anywhere is more than welcome,” Astorino said. “But I think we have to be careful that we do not overgrow and become something that we are not.”

WESTCHESTER & FAIRFIELD COUNTY

BUSINESS JOURNALS IN BRIEF

WESTMED CONTINUES CONN. EXPANSION

ORTHOPAEDIC ASSOCIATES OF STAMFORD (OAS) is joining Westchester County-based Westmed Medical Group as part of the latter’s ongoing expansion into Connecticut. Headquartered in Purchase, Westmed – a multispecialty group medical practice with over 300 physicians in 12 locations in Westchester and Fairfield counties – touts its “one-stop shopping” approach to medical care, which allows patients to consult with a number of internists and specialists during a single office visit. “We’d spoken with Orthopaedic Associates off and on for a number of years,” said Richard Morel, Westmed’s co-medical director. “(OAS orthopedic surgeon) Andrew Haas is married to one of our internists, so they knew us well through that.” Still, moving into Connecticut was delayed for some time as Westmed went about agreeing to contracts with the state’s various insurance carriers. Since that process was completed, it has opened a pair of facilities in Greenwich and a satellite office in Darien.

“We felt that now was the time to move further up into Stamford,” Morel said, noting that Westmed’s attraction to Fairfield is due to the similarities between the two counties’ populations, hospital structures and the fact that there is “no large independent physician-owned and physician-run group there.” The 50-year-old Orthopaedic Associates will remain at 1281 East Main St. in Stamford, but patients will now benefit from the additional support that Westmed offers. That support includes on-staff operators working around the clock and access to the “My WESTMED” patient portal, which allows patients to schedule appointments, communicate with their physicians, view lab results, request referrals and renew prescriptions. The system is part of what Morel says is Westmed’s “unfractionated medical care,” which obviates the sometimes cumbersome back-and-forth needed via numerous phone calls, faxes and other activities, to streamline the entire process. “We are respectful of the patient’s time,” Morel said. “We offer a comprehensive level

of care and all the members of our care team communicate with each other regularly.” OAS officially joins Westmed on July 11. Morel said the group’s new Stamford foothold will likely lead to further expansion throughout Fairfield County.

MAMARONECK DOCTOR RE-ELECTED TO STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY POST

KIRA A. GERACI-CIARDULLO, AN ALLERGIST and immunologist in private practice in Mamaroneck, was re-elected speaker of the Medical Society of the State of New York at the organization’s 210th annual House of Delegates meeting this month in Tarrytown. She is only the second woman elected to two terms in the post, according to the medical society. In private practice for more than 30 years, Geraci-Ciardullo is on staff at NewYorkPresbyterian Hospital, Westchester Medical Center, Montefiore New Rochelle Hospital and White Plains Hospital, where she recently completed a five-year term as chief of allergy. She holds academic positions at both Weill Medical College of Cornell University and

New York Medical College. Geraci-Ciardullo earned her medical degree from the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons and received her residency training in pediatrics at New York Hospital, where she then completed a twoyear fellowship in allergy/immunology. She earned a master’s degree in public health from the New York Medical College School of Public Health. In addition to her work for the state medical society, Geraci-Ciardullo has served as president of the Westchester County Medical Society, the Westchester Academy of Medicine and the Westchester Allergy Society. She has been part of the state medical society’s American Medical Association delegation for 11 years and serves on the AMA Council on Science and Public Health. Geraci-Ciardullo’s husband, plastic surgeon Robert Ciardullo, is also an active member of the Medical Society of the State of New York and served as a delegate to its recent annual meeting in Westchester. —Kevin Zimmerman and John Golden

indicated they plan to continue offering coverage through the exchange at least through next year. In a move unrelated to UHC’s, MetLife will be exiting Access Health’s Small Business Exchange (SHOP) by the end of 2016 due to limited enrollment. “This will not affect current policy holders, whose service will remain unchanged for the duration of their plans,” said company spokeswoman Kim Friedman. “Off the exchange, MetLife will continue to offer a stand-alone dental plan in Connecticut that has been certified by Access Health as an Affordable Care Act-compliant stand-alone dental plan.” As of April 11, United Healthcare had 1,477 Connecticut enrollees, representing 1.3 per-

cent of AHCT’s total enrollment. Sixty-one percent of those enrollees live in Fairfield County. In the small business market, United Healthcare had 18 employers representing 124 residents. Relatively small figures, then, but some observers said their putative numerical insignificance has been overstated by others. “A lot of press reports have taken the view that ‘this is just one insurance company,’” said Robert Laszewski, president of Health Policy and Strategy Associates, Inc., a policy and marketplace consulting firm. “That’s true — but it’s sitting on top of all the others who are losing their shirts. “If the largest and most successful insurance company in the United States is not finding the Obamacare insurance exchange tenable,” he added, “that raises a lot of alarm bells.”

Laszewski noted that UHC’s move comes not just after its January announcement of nearly $1 billion in losses but also a report by global consulting firm McKinsey & Company stating that in 2014, insurers lost money in 41 states in the individual insurance market. “Just because United Healthcare is pulling out is, in and of itself, not a huge deal,” said Seth J. Chandler, a professor at the University of Houston Law Center who has taught life and health insurance law for a number of years and served as a co-director of the Health Law & Policy Institute. “But if something like Blue Cross pulls out, it will be. “But that kind of misses the point,” he continued. “This is a symptom of a much more fundamental, pervasive problem — that the insurers are losing a lot of money.”

Indeed, the “affordable” part of the Affordable Care Act — long a point of debate — has come under greater scrutiny in the wake of a report in March by Blue Cross Blue Shield. According to that insurer, recent enrollees in the state marketplace plans used up “significantly more medical services in their first year of coverage”; as a result, the costs associated with medical services for marketplace enrollees were 22 percent higher than those for other types of enrollees. Chandler, whose feelings about Obamacare are made plain by the name of his blog, “ACA Death Spiral,” said that without major amendments — or an entirely new system put in place to replace it — the Affordable Care Act will end up “pretty catastrophically” for carriers and individuals alike. “I think you’ll see other carriers get out” of the exchanges in the wake of United, he said. “But even if they stay in, what does it mean? At what price to consumers? They could raise rates by 25 to 30 percent.” He went on to predict that, if left unaddressed, most consumers would no longer be able to afford “Gold” health insurance plans (where the carrier typically pays 80 percent of costs) or even “Silver” (where the carrier pays 70 percent) but would be faced with paying for “Bronze” HMO plans at much higher rates than they do now. In Laszewski’s view, United’s move means that Obamacare is “unsustainable.” As a result of carriers’ skyrocketing rate increases to try to return to profitability, he said that he expects “an enormous amount of lobbying to get [the system] fixed. You’ve got to believe that it’s going to get fixed, because it has to be fixed.” Meanwhile, non-AHCT giants Aetna and Anthem are unlikely to join UHC’s exodus. Although Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini expressed “serious concerns about the sustainability of the public exchanges” in February, Aetna and Anthem have both said they remain committed to the exchanges. Then again, both companies are awaiting federal approval of proposed mergers: Anthem has proposed a $52.5 billion takeover of Cigna, while Aetna has proposed a $38.5 billion merger with Humana. “I don’t expect them to go anywhere or rock any boats,” said Laszewski. As for the AHCT’s future, time will tell. One of its three remaining carriers, HealthyCT — a Wallingford-based co-operative that is sponsored by doctors and governed by members — lost $28 million in 2014 and well over $10 million last year, though CEO Ken Lalime has said he does not expect to turn a profit until 2017. AHCT’s next open enrollment period begins Nov. 1 and runs through Jan. 31, 2017.

Gottesman, who lives in Westchester County, said he often visits the Danbury area during the weekends, including shopping trips to the Danbury Fair mall. When it was time for an expansion, he said, Danbury was the perfect location. “Connecticut may not be the first go-to location for everyone, but we really love Danbury and the surrounding area,” he said. “The area will offer us some good opportunities for new hires as we continue our growth, and we also like the services that are available

in the surrounding area. The suburban and country feel the Danbury area offers is also really appealing to me. It makes going to work every day kind of pleasant.” According to Cushman & Wakefield, the company recently signed a 10-year lease for about 56,000 square feet of warehouse and office space on Great Pasture Road.

We expect to be announcing other new tenants for the remaining 20,000 square feet soon.”

The building is across the street from the FuelCell Energy headquarters in the southern end of Danbury. Opportunity Buying hopes to complete its relocation by August. Dirk Perrefort is a reporter for Hearst Connecticut Media Group. He can be reached at dperrefort@newstimes.com.

Rebranding — » » From page 16

Group as Norwalk has more attractions than can be captured in a single catchphrase, he said. “There are a lot of cities nationally that can hang their hat on maritime and waterfront and we were not going to be another Mystic, because we are not another Mystic,” he said. “We have more to offer.” “We solved the problem by making the slogan, the ‘Sound of Connecticut’, playing off Long Island Sound, but also having all the support materials and media play off of that – the sound of education, entertainment, dining, business, success, discovery,” he said. “This gave us an opportunity to extend all

those different offerings and benefits that Norwalk has and sets us apart.” It was by no means an easy task, Esposito said. From the beginning, challenges faced the Zunda Group. With clients such as Barbasol, Newman’s Own and Chobani, Zunda’s core competency is in rebranding consumer good products and it has never worked on a municipality-sized project such as with Norwalk. One of the first questions raised in the competitive bidding process to select the city’s new marketing company was why the Zunda Group should be trusted with the rebranding having no experience with similar projects. “My response was about five or seven years ago no one knew what Greek yogurt

was and the founder of Chobani came to us and said I need a package,” Esposito said. “Our job is to take the unknown and make it known – make it understood. We launched Chobani and what happened is he is the number one selling brand and now Greek yogurt is a category.” While Esposito believes the rebranding has been a success, the company’s work with the city isn’t done, he said. The 35-year-old company has been in the city for the last 20 years, and following the launch of the city’s new brand, has signed on to remain as a consultant with the city to advise the rebranding as it continues. “We are attached to this town and this project more than on just a business level,” he said. “I feel more connected to Norwalk now more than ever.”

Nonprofit changes leadership BY REECE ALVAREZ

ralvarez@westfairinc.com

he Stamford-based Alliance for Cancer Gene Therapy (ACGT) has announced a shift in leadership with co-founder and president Barbara Netter handing over the organization’s reins to John Walter, former CEO of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. “I am thrilled to be coming on board to lead the vision and direction of ACGT,” Walter said. “ACGT’s focus in cell, gene and immunotherapy for uncovering treatments for all cancer, as well as the remarkable people that make up the board and scientific advisory council, were major considerations as to why I came on board. This is truly an incredible time to be working in cancer research with significant breakthroughs on the way for patients.” In his previous work with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Walter held several executive positions over 18 years with the organization in addition to prior experience as the director of financial planning and budgeting for the March of Dimes. Netter co-founded ACGT with her husband, Edward, in 2001 after their daughterin-law’s death from breast cancer. Edward Netter died in 2011. They were inspired to create the nation’s only nonprofit dedicated to cell and gene therapies after attending a lecture on gene therapy by Savio Woo, chairman of the Department of Gene and Cell Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital. The doctor went on to chair ACGT’s scientific advisory council and held that position for 14 years before retiring in 2015. Under the Netters’ leadership the alliance has funded dozens of scientific grants in the U.S. and Canada to conduct and accelerate innovative cancer research totaling $26.4 million in funding. This funding contributed to breakthrough cancer research on successfully treating leukemia through gene therapy that was pioneered by Carl June at the University of Pennsylvania and Michel Sadelain at Memorial Sloan Kettering. According to the Alliance, Netter hopes Walter will move the alliance to the next level of scientific funding of cancer research and possibly develop pivotal partnerships with important biotech companies that are now taking notice of cell, gene and immunotherapy treatments for cancer.

Tax policy in flux for U.S. corporations BY BILL HELTZEL

bheltzel@westfairinc.com

ventually, Main Street USA feels the repercussions of corporate tax avoidance practices, but lately those effects have become more uncertain. “Taxes are reflective of our lives, our politics and real economic realities,” said Helen Mangano, a securities and finance lawyer in Bronxville. While there is broad agreement that tax avoidance strategies are harming the economy, political gridlock in Washington has stalled efforts to address the problems. The consequences can be seen with Pfizer Inc., the New York City-based pharmaceutical company that produces vaccines and operates a large research and development center in Pearl River in Rockland County. Pfizer was in the process of acquiring Allergan Plc, a drug maker based in Dublin, Ireland, for $152 billion. That merger collapsed after the U.S. Treasury issued regulations on April 4 that made the transaction unattractive. The Pfizer-Allergan deal would have been the biggest ever tax inversion, a controversial but legal technique that corporations use to lower their tax bills. Pfizer’s plan was to reincorporate in Ireland, essentially relinquishing its U.S. “citizenship.” Individuals who give up citizenship still have to pay U.S. taxes for ten years, Mangano said. Not so with corporations. In the typical inversion, the corporation takes advantage of a lower foreign tax rate by establishing its home abroad, on paper, while continuing to manage and control the company from the U.S. Inversions often use a related strategy called “earnings stripping.” The foreign-controlled corporation loans money to its U.S. subsidiary for operational expenses. Interest payments are deducted from overall earnings and are not taxable. The U.S. taxes American corporation profits wherever they are earned in the world. But the foreign earnings are not taxed until they are returned to the U.S. So American corporations are holding more than a trillion dollars in earnings off-

shore, to delay or avoid paying U.S. taxes. The Treasury issued a temporary rule making it harder for an American company to reincorporate abroad. It also proposed a rule that would classify foreign loans to American subsidiaries as equity instead of debt, removing the tax deduction. “Predictably, Washington is trying to address symptoms without really dealing with the serious underlying issue,” said Ralph Kessler, a corporate and securities lawyer for Hinman, Howard & Kattell Attorneys in White Plains, and an adjunct professor at Hagen School of Business at Iona College. “U.S. tax policy is out of synch and not competitive with the rest of the world,” he said. The top corporate tax rate in the U.S. is 35 percent. The average tax rate among developed countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, excluding the U.S., is about 29 percent. Ireland’s corporate rate is 12.5 percent. Critics of the high tax rate say it distorts corporate investment decisions. Foreign corporations are less likely to invest in the U.S. American corporations are more likely to invest overseas. The Treasury and state governments get less tax revenue. If corporations could bring back foreign earnings at a lower tax rate, Kessler said, “they could expand here, there would be more jobs and the economy would grow faster.” Treasury was right to curtail inversions, said Philip G. Cohen, a retired vice president of tax at Unilever United States, and an associate professor of taxation at Pace University Lubin School of Business. Congress has failed to act, he said, and the government had to send a message to stop an abusive tax avoidance practice. He said the high corporate tax not only hurts U.S. companies with global operations, it burdens smaller U.S. companies that don’t have foreign operations to use for tax avoidance techniques. The proposed rule that would treat a company’s foreign debt as equity goes too far, he said. But putting an end to taxation of foreign earnings of American corporations, as some reformers have advocated,

would encourage companies to move jobs and investments outside of the U.S. “If Singapore decides to offer a tax holiday,” Cohen asked, “why would you put up an R&D facility in Tarrytown?” “I want to encourage investments in the U.S. I want to make the U.S. business friendly, while at the same time curtailing abuses.” The Treasury rules have been characterized as stopgap measures to slow down the pace of inversions. There is widespread agreement that comprehensive tax reform is needed. Cohen said the tax base should be broad-

FCBJ

ened and the statutory rates lowered. But he has written elsewhere that there is little appetite in the current Congress to change a tax system that opens the campaign donation spigot. Maybe next year, if a Democrat is elected president and Democrats control the Senate, a reform bill can be negotiated with a Republican House. Kessler said neither Democrats nor Republicans can vote for something that helps big business in this election year. After the election, he thinks the two parties might be able to work on tax reform. “That’s politics,” he said.

eneral Electric’s exit from the banking business is complete, with the company finalizing the sale of GE Capital Bank’s U.S. deposits to Goldman Sachs. GE Capital Bank is now called GS Bank. The deal, approved by federal regulators in March, includes GE Capital transferring $16 billion in online deposits to Goldman’s GS Bank USA. With the completion of the sale, Goldman – the investment banking firm often criticized for its role in the 2008 economic crisis, in part because it posted record profits in 2009 on the heels of the federal bailout – is in the midst of trying to partially reinvent itself by moving focus away from its traditional customer base of institutions and toward individuals. As of April 18, GS Bank was allowing individuals to make online deposits to savings accounts of as little as $1, as compared with the $10 million minimum it reportedly requires for large companies. GE’s exit from the banking marketplace is looking particularly well timed in the face of Goldman’s first-quarter results, which showed revenue at $6.34 billion – compared with $10.62 billion for the first quarter of 2015. The figures mark Goldman’s fourth straight quarter of profit declines. The investment banking firm is taking the great leap into online deposits in its increasing efforts to attract consumers in addition to its core business. “This transaction increases the funding diversification and strengthens the liquidity profile of Goldman Sachs and GS Bank,” said Robin Vince, treasurer of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. “We are pleased to add the capability for accepting online deposits, a strategic priority for the firm and for GS Bank.” GS Bank, chartered in New York state, in addition to assuming $16 billion of deposits, also picked up approximately 140,000 retail customers. The company’s new website, gsbank.com, currently offers online savings accounts (with rates of 1.05 percent APY) and certificates of deposits with terms from six months to six years. Besides trying to attract consumers, the website is also looking to draw small businesses – a group that previously had been

fairly anathema to the Wall Street titan. A video on the home page promotes its “10,000 Small Businesses” program, which it says “provides access to education, capital and business support.” Online calculators and in-house articles offering tips and other investing information are also available. “We are committed to providing our new online deposit customers the high level of service they have come to expect,” said Esta Stecher, GS Bank CEO. “GS Bank will continue to offer smart, simple savings products backed by the skilled and knowledgeable team joining us from GE Capital Bank.” For all the bright talk, Goldman Sachs itself has been taking financial hits for the past several quarters, with CFO Harvey Schwartz fielding sometimes sharp questions from analysts and investors in the wake of the company’s release of its disappointing first-quarter results. The quarter’s revenues of $6.34 billion were reportedly the lowest for any first quarter since CEO Lloyd Blankfein took charge in 2006. Schwartz told the group that Goldman remains committed to being flexible in its approach to a fast-changing landscape. “If we felt like there is a client segment or transaction we could do that would benefit our shareholders and we could deliver to those clients, we would do it,” he said. “We’re open-minded.” Meanwhile, last month GE – in the midst of relocating from Fairfield to Boston – announced that it was selling its GE Asset Management division in Stamford to Bostonbased asset management firm State Street Corp. for a reported $485 million. State Street has indicated the office’s 275 employees will remain in Stamford. In yet another deal with potential regional implications, Wells Fargo – which in March completed the purchase of the North American portions of GE Capital’s Commercial Distribution Finance and Vendor Finance businesses as well as a portion of its Corporate Finance business, totaling $27.4 billion of assets – reportedly plans to move those employees into Danbury’s Lee Farm Corporate Park. Calls to confirm that report to Fairfieldbased Summit Development, which co-owns the property, went unreturned. A Wells Fargo spokeswoman would say only that “At this time, we cannot comment on this matter.”

THE FLEMING REPORT

BY DEVON FLEMING

M&A outlook and trends in 2016

n my last article, I reported on the record high level of activity in mergers and acquisitions in 2015, focusing on deals valued at $50 million or more. That activity was a function of low interest rates, economic stability, a stronger stock market and balance sheets, demographics and overall growth acquisition strategies. We are seeing some of the same factors in early 2016 as well. In general, the outlook for the year looks strong and companies are on a mission to grow. Many industries are incorporating M&A into their strategy as a growth vehicle, particularly in those industries

where disruption is a good thing. The key drivers for this positive outlook in M&A growth are an environment of prolonged low interest rates and low inflation. These key economic factors are causing many industries to continue consolidating, which serves to reduce excess capacity and increase profitability, which results from economies of scale and scope. Since 2008 and the Great Recession, we have been in a period of slow economic growth, low inf lation, minimal wage growth and overcapacity. While last year saw improvements in the economy,

a strong stock market and better corporate balance sheets, corporations are still struggling to grow their top lines and many have improved by becoming more efficient, thus improving their bottom line. While periods of a growing and robust economy are reflected in an increase in inflation — prices of goods and services rise with time — during times of low or no inflation, the economy is flat and interest rates tend to stay low. Low rates, while bad for investors, are good for those who wish to borrow money, which circles us back to why M&A grows. Acquisitions become a good alterna-

tive to organic growth, particularly when financing is inexpensive. With cheaper financing, due to low rates and low inflation, M&A is expected to continue to grow, and with some buyers — private equity groups — demand has even become pent up. There is more than $1 trillion in “dry powder,” money ready, willing and eager to be put to work, by private equity managers who are required to buy privately held firms with growth potential in order to generate return on investment promised to their investors. On the sell side, you have similar growth issues driven by low rates and low inflation, and sellers are interested in the strategic partnership offered by a larger acquirer. They are finding similar interest in inorganic growth by seeking to be acquired, which offers access to additional resources and other growth potential. In addition, demographics play a part in M&A deals. With baby boomers looking to retire, there is more demand on the sell side as well. Depending on the industry, one can draw additional conclusions which all point toward additional growth in deals. Acquisitions have been motivated by add-ons to existing portfolio companies and customer base and other acquisitions are driven to capture changing customer behaviors, new geographical and demographic areas, increased delivery platforms with technology or innovations. As all industries seek to gain access to the latest technological advances, tech companies continue to create the most investment opportunities for both buyers and sellers. For those feeling less positive, there are always exceptions, such as in the energy sector where pre-stage M&A activity suggests lower deal activity. Additionally, there are other factors that could point to a slowing in growth throughout the year. Many sellers believe that the M&A market has peaked and many buyers have concerns with valuation. While the large amount of private equity dry powder is good for sellers, it has flooded the buyer pool and in general, there are an ever increasing number of players in the deal making industry.

Orange Regional Medical Center in Middletown launched a program to promote healing through arts activities. The

Many also serve on various committees and fundraising initiatives, providing valuable insight, feedback and ideas that contribute to the hospital’s success. “We are fortunate to have volunteers who have been with us for more than 50 years, as well as young students just starting out who are gaining exposure to careers in health care,” said Roseanne Braiotta, director of ancillary services and volunteers at White Plains Hospital. “Our volunteers, no matter what their roles are in the hospital, contribute a great deal and make our patients and visitors feel special and cared for.”

kill, will be the featured speaker at the event. Now a sophomore in high school, Vargas was diagnosed at 13 with a rare blood cancer and required a bone marrow transplant. His sister Elena, now 13, donated her bone marrow to save his life. “Our whole lives were changed,” said their mother, Jennifer Vargas. “Everything was happening so quickly and during this time, a social worker at the hospital reached out to Make-A-Wish.” Vargas said Ramiro always wanted to surf, from the time he was a little child watching surfers at his grandparents’ home in Myrtle Beach, S.C. “He loved boogie-boarding and talked constantly about visiting Surfer’s Paradise in Australia. He always said that place had the best waves in the world,” she said. When the family received the news that Ramiro’s wish to visit Surfer’s Paradise was going to come true, he started practice surfing on his skateboard. Last March, the family went to Australia, and not only did Ramiro take surfing lessons, but he also had the opportunity to visit Dreamworld, Australia’s largest theme park, and hold a koala bear at the Australia Zoo. “This could have never happened without Make-A-Wish and their donors,” said Vargas. “Our association has been involved with this wonderful organization for many years and we are delighted to be able to help make a difference in the lives of children like Ramiro who are living in our area,” said Richard Haggerty, HGAR CEO.

Astorino.

A team from Mamaroneck High School took home top honors at the recent second annual #WestchesterSmart Mobile App Development Bowl where more than 250 students competed at Pace University’s Pleasantville campus to see which team of the competing teams had developed the best mobile application after weeks of design and development. In all, teams from eight high schools and colleges took home cash awards. Presented by County Executive Rob Astorino and Pace’s Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems, the competition challenged stu-

dents to create an app that will improve the quality of life for people age 65 and older. Ideas ranged from health and memory to finance and money. The winning team – The Rock Club from Mamaroneck High School – created an app that serves as a “one stop shop” for seniors to resolve technical issues. After interviewing seniors regarding their most common issues with technology, the team found that most fit into three broad categories: problems with vision, problems with hearing and problems with dexterity. The completed apps will be available for download via the Apple Store and/or the Google Play Store.
