Chapter 651 【Full War 1】

The war between the Keira family and the Rohill family has aroused increasing repercussions in the UK;

The direct result is that it drove the skyrocketing of the entire British stock market!

At the end of April, in the meeting room of Metro Group, Kayla was holding a progress meeting.

Kayla first asked: "Mr. Yuri, how about our acquisition?"

Yuri is a member of Lloyds Bank, and Lloyds Bank is the investment advisor for this acquisition.

Yuri sternly said: "Standard Chartered Bank has acquired 50% of the shares, and the management of Standard Chartered Bank, in the Rohill family and the Kayla family, has chosen to support the Kayla family; therefore, we can hold a board of directors, Enter the management to control Standard Chartered Bank!"

Hearing this, the high-levels of the Kayla department in the conference room were overjoyed!

Only Kayla frowned and continued to ask: “How many shares of Standard Chartered Bank has Barclays acquired?”

Behind the Barclays Bank is the Roshill family. This time the Roshill family instructed Barclays to do the work of joining Standard Chartered Bank.

Yuri thought for a while, and said uncertainly: “It is estimated that there will be about 15% of the shares, and they will probably join the Standard Chartered Board of Directors as well!”

In the UK, if you own 8% of a company's shares, you have the right to enter the board of directors!

It can be predicted that with about 15% of the shares of the Rohill family, at least two director seats will be required.

Obviously, this is very interesting!

Kayla asked again: "How much money has been consumed by the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank?"

The person in charge of the audit said: “We own 10% of Standard Chartered Bank. The acquisition of the remaining 40% of the shares cost a total of 550 million pounds (1.36 billion US dollars).”

Because it was acquired at a premium of 70%, the cost is relatively high!

From this point of view, the Liangzi of the Wu family and the Rohill family in Europe has been formed;

After all, if the Rohill family does not participate, a 50% premium can completely achieve the goal.

Kayla nodded and continued: "How is Barclays Bank's progress?"

Yuri was taken aback, this'retail queen' and'car queen' won't really get involved with Barclays Bank!

This is no less than a financial world war!

Yuri suppressed his shock and said: "Although it is only acquiring at a premium of 30%, many Barclays shareholders think that we have no intention of getting involved with Barclays Bank, so they sold their shares to us. We already hold Barclays. A 7% stake in Lyceum Bank, cost 410 million pounds."

It's a complete surprise!

The 30% premium is not high, but many investors are not optimistic about the acquisition, so it is predicted that the acquisition will not continue to increase the price;

So, they would rather earn 30% before talking;

After all, after an unsuccessful acquisition, the stock price decline is inevitable!

Kayla heard the words and thought about it;

I called the man, and his man just said that everything is based on the premise that the Rohill family quit Standard Chartered Bank.

The meaning of    is very simple, that is, to call the Roshir family to beg for mercy.

How to get them to beg for mercy is actually very simple, buy Barclays Bank regardless of the cost.

This method is similar to the operation method of the Chinese People's Congress Liu, forcing the major shareholders to finally buy back the shares in the hands of the purchaser;

Not only will you not lose money, you will even make money!

Barclays Bank is the flagship bank of the Rohill family. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the lifeblood. It is conceivable that if the British Wu family attacked at all costs, the Rohill family could only beg for mercy.

Kayla, who had an idea, strongly said: “Continue to acquire Barclays Bank at a premium of 50%, all with the goal of owning Barclays Bank’s absolute holdings. Finally, what I want to say is-regardless of the cost!"

The consultants of Lloyds Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland were surprised. Is this new family going to fight against the old family?

Yuri tentatively said, "In terms of funding?"

Kayla said with a smile: "It is completely sufficient, I can mobilize 8 billion pounds, or even more! This, you don't need to worry about it!"

Lufeng Group mortgaged 1.5 billion US dollars, Metro Group raised 5 billion US dollars, and Wu Guangyao once again promised 15 billion US dollars to be provided by the family office.

Wu Guangyao made a total of 50 billion U.S. dollars last time, and spent less than 20 billion U.S. dollars. The world's major banks still have 30 billion U.S. dollars!

Not only that, Wu Guangyao’s companies can earn more than 3 billion U.S. dollars in dividends each year, and they can properly own cash cows.

Wu Guangyao calculated that his side would win, and the cost of the acquisition would all be paid by the Rohill family;

So, what about flirting the tiger's whiskers?

And the companies under the Wu family have very high holdings;

Hong Kong listed companies, all holdings are more than 50% (relatives hold part of the shares);

Overseas listed companies hold more than 40% of their shares. Hostile takeovers occur, and their holdings will soon increase to 51%.

Although the holding company of the Rohill family’s holdings is cross-shareholding, it will never exceed 30%;

Even, not even 20%!

Hearing that Kayla could mobilize 20 billion U.S. dollars, all the senior acquisition executives took a breath, except for the family office staff.

Yuri said worriedly: "Will this cause financial turmoil in the UK?"

Behind the Lloyds Bank and the Gold Bank of England, it can be said that they are the masters of this country. It is normal to worry about this;

But Kayla didn’t care about so much, and said, “This is not the war I started. Even if the government wants to interfere, it’s not my turn!”

Yuri and others understand, this is forcing the British government and the royal family to disarm Rohill!

In the contest between the Wu family and the Lowhill family in the UK, the Wu family took the lead in achieving results, holding 51% of Standard Chartered Bank;

At the same time, the management of Standard Chartered Bank promised to accept the leadership of the British Wu family;

It can be said that the Wu family has won!

On the board of directors of Standard Chartered Bank, Kayla officially became the chairman of the board of directors of Standard Chartered Bank;

At the same time, his son Wu Xianyu and an external banker have also served as directors of Standard Chartered Bank.

To make people feel uncomfortable, Barclays Bank was also elected two directors, because their holdings reached 16%.

After the meeting, Barclays director Max approached Kayla and said: "Ms. Kayla, since you have already led the Standard Chartered Bank, should we end this farce!"

At this time, the Kayla family has not yet issued a new acquisition announcement, and Barclays Bank does not know yet, they are about to be out of luck!

Kayla said unceremoniously: "This is not a farce, but a normal business practice; we will continue to acquire Barclays stock, and maybe in a while, you will call me ‘Ms. Chairman’"

Max is the agent of the Rohill family, he was shocked when he heard Kayla’s words;

This is not arguing, but really wanting to swallow Barclays!

"Ms. Kayla, you are playing with fire! The market value of Barclays Bank has reached 5.5 billion pounds. If you want to acquire it, you need to pay at least 8 billion pounds. You can't afford it!"

If Wu Guangyao is here, he will definitely agree to this transaction without hesitation and ask to sign the purchase contract immediately;

8 billion pounds is 20 billion U.S. dollars, although Barclays Bank is not worth that much now;

But where is the influence, and the Wu family can use Barclays Bank to take advantage of gold and oil futures, and they will soon be able to make up for this money.

Kayla said unceremoniously: "Then we will wait and see!"
