re some history, seems like regent then aman/rafael, all sold (as was FS)
even with FS hiring/training, may run into (increasing) procedural issues.
as for local culture, big western companies like FS have disadvantages
1992 was regent sale and aman's first major equity sale.
just noticed Trinity acquired rafael in 1997 then sold to MO
