Aviva's acquisition of AIG Life will not go to in-depth UK CMA probe

Thu, 28th Mar 2024 09:16

(Alliance News) - The UK's competition watchdog on Thursday said Aviva PLC's GBP460 million planned acquisition of AIG Life Ltd will not be referred to a phase 2 investigation.

In February, the Competition & Markets Authority launched an initial probe to assess whether the acquisition could reduce competition in the UK services sector.

In September, London-based insurer Aviva announced the acquisition of AIG Life from Corebridge Financial, a subsidiary of American International Group Inc, for GBP460 million.

Aviva said that acquiring AIG's life-insurance and retirement-services division would add 1.3 million individual protection customers and 1.4 million group protection members to the company's existing portfolio.

Shares in Aviva fell 0.1% to 495.49 pence in London on Thursday morning.

Sunday newspaper round-up: Arm, Energy bills, Flybe

(Sharecast News) - The Financial Conduct Authority has offered to relax rules around so-called "related party transactions" in order to entice microchip designer Arm to float in London. Arm worries that otherwise it may have to report dealings with owner Softbank and any of the Japanese outfit's hundreds of investments as well as having to consult with shareholders each time. Such transaction nevertheless played an important role in failed US companies Enron and Tyco. Critics say the move would dilute the UK's highly regarded standards of corporate governance. - The Sunday Times
