The time has come to introduce Cyrus Capital Partners.
The mystery fourth bidder in the race for Virgin Australia has avoided the spotlight for far too long.

Tonight, we take a look at the four leading men spearheading the New York and London-based firm's tilt at the airline. And here's a couple of hints: a former CEO of Virgin Group North America is on board, as is a member of Wall Street's elite.

Elsewhere, services contractor Ventia is on the hunt for $1.6 billion in a mix of Aussie and US dollar debt and we dive into what the deal means for Australia's leveraged loans market.

Finally, MST Financial has continued its run of high-profile hires and we unveil who has been poached this time around.

Happy reading,

Sarah Thompson, Anthony Macdonald and Tim Boyd
