Michael Robert Milken
Founder bei Milken Family Foundation
Profil
Michael Robert Milken (* 4. Juli 1946, in Encino, Kalifornien) ist ein US-amerikanischer Finanzier und Investmentbanker, der in den 1970er Jahren einer der Hauptbeteiligten bei der Schaffung des Junk Bond-Marktes war ('The Junk Bond King'). 1989 wurde er wegen Finanzbetrugs inhaftiert und gilt als Symbol der Gier an der Wall Street während der 1980er Jahre.
Biographie
Milken wurde in Encino, Kalifornien geboren. Er erwarb einen Bachelor mit Auszeichnung an der Universität von Kalifornien in Berkeley und einen MBA an der Wharton School.
Während seines MBA-Studiums forschte Milken über ertragsstarke Anleihen ('high yield bonds'), die damals hauptsächlich von in Schwierigkeiten geratenen Unternehmen ('fallen angels') ausgegeben wurden. Trotz des höheren Ertrags waren nur wenige Anleger bereit, in diese Anleihen zu investieren. Milkens Forschungsergebnisse besagten, dass der Ertrag auch im Vergleich zu dem höheren Risiko immer noch überdurchschnittlich war, und später konnte er als Investmentbanker einen großen Markt für diese Anleihen aufbauen.
1993 erkrankte Milken an Prostatakrebs, der aber durch eine Androgen-Entzugstherapie sowie durch Bestrahlung gestoppt werden konnte.
Seit dieser Zeit kämpft Milken gegen den Krebs und macht sich für Bildung stark.
Ebenfalls 1993 rief er die gemeinnützige Organisation 'Prostate Cancer Foundation' (PCF) ins Leben, 2003 gründete er die gemeinnützige Organisation 'Faster Cures/ The Center for Accelerating Medical Solutions', die die 2004 gegründete Organisation 'Patients Helping Doctors' unterstützt.
'Patients Helping Doctors' hilft Erkrankten, Gewebeproben für Forschungsdatenbanken zu stiften.
Zusammen mit seinem Bruder Lowell und dem Oracle-Chef Larry Ellison gründete er 1996 den Bildungskonzern Knowledge Universe.
