| Description: |
The case-study outlines the inherent dangers in international mergers, as well as explaining the acute problems associated with City practices that avoided issues that would bring down Ferranti in spectacular fashion. -- . |
| Synopsis: |
This study of Ferranti in its last six years of a long history provides a detailed exposition of the British and American businessmen who combined to terminate one of the UK's leading defence electronics firms. Involving action in the Middle East, South Africa and Pakistan, as well as the UK and USA, this highlights the precarious nature of international arms trading. -- . |
