(CNS Business): The controversial issue of how many directorships are reasonable for an independent director or how much time should be allocated to each fund and even the rate of fees they charge are some of the points to be discussed at next week’s Cayman Fund Focus, when Don Seymour of dms Management will go head to head with Jason D. Papastavrou, of private investment firm Aris Capital Management, LLC.
