QBE Nears 90 Percent of LIMIT Shares
Shareholders of Limit Plc have tendered a total of 89.6 percent of their shares to Australia’s QBE Insurance Group, the successful bidder for the Lloyd’s underwriter and syndicate manager with its 140 pence ($2.24) bid last June.
Pending only regulatory approvals, the offer has become unconditional, and assures QBE’s acquisition of all LIMIT shares.
QBE plans to integrate LIMIT operations into its group structure; when this is accomplished it will effectively conduct a majority of its business outside of Australia.
