PROFILE |
 |
Diversity is the key to success for Keystone. Owned and led by Texas financier Robert Bass, the investment firm targets a variety of industries and owns interests in such firms as IVEX Packaging, maker of plastic and paper-based packaging, and Lone Star Technologies, the holding company for a manufacturer of oil field products. Keystone also owns almost 20% of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. The firm set up Oak Hill Securities Fund to invest in high-yield bonds and LBOs. Bass is known for buying troubled businesses and making them profitable, but even he has bad days: Specialty Foods, which he bought and built with fellow dealmakers J. Taylor Crandall and Robert Haas, filed for bankruptcy and was sold off piecemeal.
