In this new book, Thomas Timberg shows how the Marwaris rely on a centuries-old system for conserving and growing capital which has stood them in good stead, alongside a strong sense of business ethics which has earned them respect.<br/>Family businesses in general and the Marwaris in particular might have a vital role to play in shaping India’s economic future.
