Zurich’s Cover-More takeover moves ahead

Travel insurer Cover-More has handed the Australian Securities and Investments Commission orders from the Federal Court approving its takeover by Zurich.

The court approved the scheme of arrangement last week, under which Zurich will acquire Cover-More for $741 million.

Cover-More shares will be suspended from today’s close of trade on the Australian Securities Exchange, in accordance with regulations to facilitate the takeover.
