Diversify and conquer?

Article Abstract:

The experiences of P and O and Trafalgar House, both of which have seen a fall in profits, indicate that companies which have their origins in property could face difficulties if they diversify into too many other areas. Conglomerates have been a popular concept over recent decades, with property companies moving into areas including banking and construction. However, companies which move into operations which are totally unrelated to their existing activities could face severe problems.

Other aspects of the report are discussed.
