Notability[edit]

The firm's website claims that it is "one of the largest independent restructuring, recovery and insolvency firms in the UK". A brief inspection of the Insolvency Practitioners' register seems to confirm that it is a significant player in its field (search for practitioners in London, and several from FRP Advisory appear on the first and second pages). There has also been sufficient coverage of the firm and its assignments in the press to confirm notability per WP:ORG.

Although it may not add much in the specialist sense of notability on Wikipedia, the firm's history is also interesting as its predecessors cover two of the three "consolidators", listed companies which tried to build national accounting businesses by acquiring local firms. Only RSM Tenon is left in general practice, and FRP Advisory as a specialist firm. – Fayenatic (talk) 19:31, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Adverse publicity[edit]

@Brookie: I also noticed the deletion of the section about adverse publicity,[1] but as the material was tagged as uncited, I considered that the deletion was proper, so did not revert the deletion. Even if cited, would the material not belong in the Vantis article rather than here? The action criticised, and at least one of the alleged criticisms, took place before formation of FRP. – Fayenatic London 18:58, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's a fair point; I have removed it but added an edit summary to explain the removal $Brookie :) { - like the mist - there one moment and then gone!} (Whisper...)$
