Fly Fishing People: Halla Tomasdottir and Kristin Petursdottir

Their names may be too long for a headline, but their investment firm Audur Capital is one of only two to survive Iceland’s recent economic crash. The reason, they say? Values. “We tripled our wealth management business when everyone else was losing business. We achieved this through trust, and the things we stand for. And straight talking. We told our clients things that they would not have been told elsewhere.” The one thing they have in common with many male counterparts: they are both serious fly fishers. From the BBC News.
