BV to raise bid for GL

 HAMBURG 11 December – Germanischer Lloyd shareholders willing to sell are now seeing their shares’ market value spiral up, as Bureau Veritas attempts to outbid the other suitors. The French class society announced today that it will submit an improved offer in time for its meeting with GL shareholders scheduled for 18 December in Hamburg. In particular it aims to outrival the friendly takeover-bid by Hamburg businessman Gunter Herz, who has made an unconditional offer for up to 100% of GL’s shares. Unlike BV, whose offer comes with various strings attached, Herz is prepared to buy the shares without first going through a due diligence process. However, BV’s chances seem to have increased again after GL shareholders refused to decide for the Herz offer at a meeting in Hamburg at the end of last week. The French class society has underlined its intention to concentrate all decision-making functions of the combined marine business in the Hansestadt. “And the alliance will provide a vital incentive to create new jobs, so fears about job losses are completely unwarranted”, said BV chief executive Frank Piedelièvre.
