 Peter J. July, Group Chairman, RBTT Financial Holdings Limited, has announced that the Group recorded pre-tax earnings of US$145 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, an improvement of 5% over the corresponding period last year. The profit attributable to shareholders of US$107 million was affected by a higher effective Group tax rate, which moved up from 21% to 25%, mainly due to changes to the tax legislation in one jurisdiction, increased provisions for tax assessments and higher taxable income generated by the retail banking entities. As a consequence, diluted earnings per share moved down to US$0.31, compared with US$0.32 for the comparable period last year. |

Following the wonderful setting of the Aquarium Restaurant & Bar, in March, the GHTA was very fortunate to have the use of the Beach House Restaurant & Bar last Sunday night, for the latest of their increasingly popular ‘Gourmet Evenings’. Waves gently lapping on the shore and the backdrop of lush vegetation, lent a feeling of peace and serenity making the venue truly fabulous. At 4 pm a community table filled with locally grown produce along with a mystery basket containing the protein to be prepared, was handed over to two teams, each consisting of three chefs and one pastry chef. After the allotted half an hour to decide on their menus, the chefs began the race against the clock to have three mouth watering courses for twenty five persons per team, cooked and plated by 8 pm. |
