When Harken needed capital to expand, Bush by then a member of Harkens board helped the company obtain a $25 million infusion from the Union Bank of Switzerland, via an Arkansas investment banker named Jackson Stephens. never have understood why UBS would take a $25mm equity position in a texas wildcatter? wouldn't think a conservative swiss bank was into venture capital.
