LONDON (Alliance News) - The following is a summary of director dealings reported in London on Monday.
----------
Oil and gas major BP said Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg bought 1 million shares at a price of GBP3.430777 each, making the purchase worth GBP3.4 million. His total shareholding was undisclosed.
Svanberg became chairman of BP in January 2010. He was president and chief executive officer of Ericsson, also serving as the chairman of Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB and was a non-executive director of Ericsson between 2009 and 2012. He was appointed chairman and a member of the board of AB Volvo in April 2012.

7digital Group said it has sold the remainder of its investment in Audioboom Group for GBP1.9 million, which it plans to use to invest in its 7digital platform and to strengthen its working capital position.
The digital music and radio services company sold 58 millions shares and an associated 8.77 million warrants over Audioboom shares at a price of 3 pence and 1.5 pence respectively.
7digital acquired its stake in Audioboom through the reverse acquisition by UBC Media Group in June last year. In combination with the GBP3.5 million it made from selling part of its stake in Audioboom last October, it has raised a total of GBP5.4 million from the investment.
Separately, Audioboom said Candy Ventures, in which Audioboom director Nick Candy is a director and majority shareholder, bought 16 million shares in the company at 3.0 pence per share last Friday.
