We're back looking at recapitalisation candidates and the spotlight is on another aviation play from across the ditch. Hot on the heels of Auckland International Airport's $1 billion placement, Air New Zealand has called in the bankers and advisers to help consider its own options. Street Talk has a look at who's involved.

Elsewhere, we look at the big name taking an early look at Eni's $1.5 billion-odd gas portfolio, and check out Bain Capital's funding for Virgin Australia.

And guess who wants a seat at the table if there's a shake-up at one of Contango's listed investment companies?

Happy reading,

Sarah Thompson, Anthony Macdonald and Tim Boyd
