I dont think it is a hostile bit though, GAM management and Fund managers are all wanting Liontrust to take over and have publicly encouraged shareholders to vote for liontrust to take them over. I dont fully understand how but there is risk involved as GAM losing money, which Liontrust say they have the strategy and Cash ready to make GAM breakeven. I would love to understand how they plan to do this, John Lions is experienced and great track record so far. I dont understand how they plan to turn GAM around but he obveously thinks it can be done! You walk away now and come back later there losses will be greater I m guessing. This is out of Liontrust hands now its down to weather or not GAM shareholders want to go with Liontrust, the other proposal they have has offered to buy so many of there shares but has not stated how they plan to fund or strategy to some GAM from losing money!!
