Nikkei/FT land Amlin takeover scoop - part 2

So - Mitsui Sumitomo has announced this morning a £3.5 billion cash takeover offer for FTSE 250 insurer Amlin. Here is the link:

http://www.investegate.co.uk/mitsui-sumitomo-ins-/rns/offer-for-amlin-plc/201509080702153715Y/

What I'm wondering is what Lloyd's of London insurer Hiscox, one of Amlin's rivals, thinks about the deal? That's because earlier this year I tried to stack up a story from a very good source about the insurers holding merger talks to create a £5 billion plus FTSE 100 giant.

And I know I wasn't the only hack trying to get that tale over the line.

However, "people close to the situation" gave me a strong steer that the companies were "not in talks", so I decided not to run the jackanory.

Still, if the story was ever on the money, Hiscox might regret not pursuing the transaction given Mitsui Sumitomo has come in with what looks to be a knock out cash bid for Amlin pitched at a 36pc premium...

  4. !!! How I Get My Ex Back !!!

    My Name is Silvia Quelal am from Florida, am a woman who love and cherish my husband more than any other thing you can imagine on earth continent. My husband was so lovely and caring after 2years of marriage he was seriously ill and the doctor confirm and said he has a kidney infection that he needed a kidney donor, that was how I start searching for a good Samaritan who can help,doctor has given me a periodic hour that he will live just 26hours left, that was how I ask the doctor if I can be of help to my husband that was how he carried out the text,the confirming was successful, I was now having this taught that since 2 years now we got married I have not be able to get pregnant can I be able to get pregnant again? That was the question I ask the doctor, he never answer his response was did you want to lost your husband? I immediately reply no I can't afford to loose him. After the operation my husband came back to live and was healthy I was also ok with the instruction given to me by the doctor, after 3months my husband came home with another lady telling me, that is our new wife that will give us kids and take care of us, that was how I was confused and started crying all day, that was how my husband ran away with his new wife cluaralle. Since then I was confuse don't no what to do that was how I went back to the doctor and tell him everything, he told me that, this is not just an ordinary it must be a spiritual problem that was how he gave me this email (okosisi.temple@gmail.com) that I should tell him all my problem that he can help that was how i contacted him and I do as instructed. After 4days and I have done what he ask me to do, my husband start searching for me and went back to the doctor, that was how we were settle he also told me not to worry that I will get pregnant, this month making it the 2 Month I contacted him am now 3Week pregnant. Thank to Dr.Ben is a great man, if you are any kind of problem you can contact him here on his email (okosisi.temple@gmail.com)
