Texas Instruments’ acquisition of rival chip maker National Semiconductor for $6.5 billion is the biggest M&A deal in the chip manufacturing sector for many years and reinforces the dominance, since the 2008 crash, of corporate acquirers over private equity players.

Exchanging fates – why exchanges merge and why it matters
- Posted by Anthony Harrington, July 13, 2011

At the time of writing, the London Stock Exchange’s bid for the Toronto Exchange TMX, which most people, including the LSE and TMX, thought was a done deal, had just collapsed. The LSE failed to secure approval from the necessary 66% of TMX shareholders and that was that. The larger question behind all this merger mania is: why?

- 0 Comments
The UK Stewardship Code was launched by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) in July 2010 and seemed to promptly vanish, almost without a splash, into that great pool of worthy things that one should do if one ever got around to it. The code - dubbed “the other half of the hinge” by FRC Chairman Baroness Hogg, since it is meant to complement the corporate governance code aimed at corporate board - was widely approved and widely dismissed, though not in public.
