Based on the most helpful WSO content, Ankura is a relatively new firm in the restructuring field. It's mentioned as a sort of spin-off of FTI. However, the specific details about its reputation, clients, and competitors aren't explicitly mentioned in the WSO threads I have access to.

In terms of competitors, the top restructuring consulting firms mentioned in the WSO threads include AlixPartners, A&M, BRG (Berkeley Research Group), Alverez & Marsal, and FTI.

For more detailed information about Ankura, I would recommend exploring more recent threads or posts on WSO, or perhaps reaching out to current or former employees of the firm. They might be able to provide more up-to-date and comprehensive insights.

Recently part of a RIF at Ankura on the RX team - over hired and underdelivered in 2023 and the sponsor (MDP) was not happy as they are looking to sell.

Overall they did relatively well this year despite missing internal budget (Reorg League Tables). They were aiming to compete with/surpass the bulge brackets: Alix/A&M/FTI/BRG

Their large recent public deals where GRUPO HIMA, Anagram, Forma Brands, Brooks Brothers.

Given Ankura leans more consulting, you have to head to fishbowl with all those nerds to get more chatter on the company. Beware, fishbowl is all softies.
