Ann: TRU - Sale of ReCapMIL , page-2

Another Machiavellian twist with the usual suspects.

The Trust Company Ltd only paid a "nominal" amount for RECAPMIL back on 31 May 2010 (p27 TRU 2011 Annual Report). It had earnings power so I wondered why that was the case. Perhaps the RE contract didn't have long to run. I now suspect this transfer back was always the intention.

The T/O offer and now the timing of this repurchase suggest a tree shaking exercise to me.

All new non-exec directors TBA. Will be interesting to see if they have any pedigree.

AUD is helping nicely. Reasonably new blog article on
