FTI Consulting is a business advisory firm headquartered in
Washington, D.C., United States. FTI is one of the largest financial consulting firms in the world and consistently ranks as one of the top global management consulting firms. Now that FTI is aware of CCP, aware of how reasonable CCP's management is, and how skilled they are in acquiring competitors in strife, and how cashed-up CCP is, FTI may look to CCP to rescue similar firms in the USA.
These so-called one-offs (acquiring "Books" or entire operations) may become more routine in coming years. The
rara avis (the Black Swan) turned out to be rathe ordinary to Australians. Juvenal describes a wife with what he considers all the right qualities—looks, charm, money, fertility, and ancestry—as “
rara avis in terris nigroque simillima cygno” (“a bird rare on earth and similar to a black swan”
. In Latin there are two ways of saying "and", one being "
et" and the other is to attach "que" to another word. In this case it is attached to the adjective
negro meaning "black". Latin is a reflexive language, so word order is rlatively unimportant, so
nigroque simillima cygno could be written
nigroque cygno simillima to bring the word "black" and "swan" together as English requires.
I am sure you could not have lived without knowing about Black Swans (rare events), and the fact that rare events are not rare.
