Headline

Simmons and Mayer Brown merger talks: round two

Comment

I'm amazed that a US firm would want to merge with an outfit like Simmons. It is common knowledge that the firm has a number of serious issues and there are suggestions that the numbers are not good for the past year. Its strategy has largely failed - I mean can anyone tell me on this board what Simmons stands for? To my mind it is simply large and substandard made up of magic circle rejects. I can see exactly why management at Simmons would want this merger but clearly a number of partners there would be like turkeys voting for Christmas if they approved it. I wonder though if they are even able to be that self perceptive?
