Heat is turned up over HBOS takeover

HBOS has played down the dispute with its pension fund trustees as mere sabre-rattling. But the trustees' decision to apply to the Court of Session to block the Lloyds TSB takeover raises the temperature. It is hard to see how the court cannot take the complaint seriously. In essence, a fund responsible for 79,000 people's retirement incomes is owed £3 billion to £5 billion by HBOS and the trustees say that the risk of members being short-changed could be increased by the Lloyds deal in its present form. A compromise looks tricky. Lloyds cannot make any concession that weakens the covenant offered to its own pension funds; the HBOS trustees cannot want to risk derailing the entire deal, however. Somebody needs to blink, and soon.

Panasonic's Sanyo offer turned down by Goldman

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said yesterday it rejected a second offer by Panasonic Corp. to buy Goldman's stake in Sanyo Electric Co. Ltd. Since announcing its intentions to acquire Sanyo last month, Panasonic has been trying to buy stakes from Sanyo's top three shareholders, including Goldman - so far without success. Japanese media reports said Panasonic raised its offer to ¥130 ($1.80) a share for Sanyo from the earlier ¥120, still below market price.

Ltd. and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp. together control about 70 per cent of Sanyo's shares. 6764 (Tokyo) fell ¥21 to ¥148. 6752 (Tokyo) fell ¥57 to ¥1,034.
