  • It is not clear whether BrightSphere meets WP:NORG requirements. As notability is not inherited, this newer company should demonstrate its own notability rather than simply inheriting the notability of its predecessor. That demonstration may take place during a requested move.
  • Thus, the request to change this article's title should be submitted using the {{requested move}} template specifically as a controversial move request process requiring discussion amongst the wider community.
  • A controversial requested move typically takes about 7 days to complete. Before taking this step, please ensure that you are acquainted with the requested move process by thoroughly reviewing its procedures. More information can be found at requested moves.
