REGULATORY APPROVAL

 

Chesnara plc is pleased to confirm that all remaining conditions precedent to the completion of the proposed acquisition of the Dutch insurance portfolio of Brand New Day Levensverzekeringen N.V. have now been fulfilled and the conversion of policies onto the systems of Chesnara's Waard Leven N.V. has been completed.

 

John Deane noted: "This marks Chesnara's fifth successful acquisition in the Netherlands since our initial purchase of the Waard Group in 2015. The acquisition of the Brand New Day portfolio was agreed at the end of 2020 and the completion of the deal along with the migration of the data is testament to the excellent processes in Waard that ensure we deliver a smooth transition for the benefit of our customers, the regulator and other stakeholders".
