Monday, 14 December 2020 9:36 pmAnd finally Midwich Group confirmed last week's RARE Alert about the company's acquisition of Dubai-based NMK Group. Tuesday, 30 June 2020 10:51 amI thought I would let the venerable Financial Times bathe in the glory of its Wirecard investigation for a few days before publishing this post. Saturday, 21 December 2019 12:42 pmIt was good to see former Telegraph colleague Alistair "Acerbic" Osborne now of the The Times sticking up for rival hacks at the Financial Times in his column in today's business section. Friday, 20 December 2019 6:51 pmTucked away in the Evening Standard's City section is a suggestion that Carson Block's next target might be FTSE 100-listed Rolls Royce. Saturday, 02 March 2019 2:50 pmBetaville thought it only right that I follow up this week's piece with a snippet noting that it was, in fact, The Sunday Times Prufrock diarist Liam Kelly that first picked up on FTI Consulting's attempt to win an award for its "defence" of GKN. Thursday, 28 February 2019 10:05 pmBetaville enjoyed the titbit in Dom Walsh's business diary column in The Times today about how FTI Consulting entered the PRCA City and Financial Awards for “best M&A or communication in support of a transaction award” for its work defending GKN from last year’s £8 billion hostile takeover by Melrose Industries. Monday, 16 July 2018 8:20 pmI see Bacanora Minerals (or is it Lithium?) has finally confirmed the piece I wrote in The Sunday Times the other week about how a secretive Omani fund is in talks to take a stake in the company as part of a major equity and debt fundraising.
