Posted at 19/7/2023 18:58 by topvest I have just frustratingly noticed that the takeover is being looked at by the CMA. Not even a proper RNS!This maybe underlines sometimes taking less money when its announced rather than waiting for completion. No dividend and now possibly no deal! This seems a bit excessive for a combined Nucleus/CBP £80bn AUM given the SIPP market is worth c£500bn in the UK. UK regulators seem to be getting a bit of a reputation for being too slow and way too onerous. Seems to me that they are too often destroying value for shareholders, customers (through cost savings) and UKs tarnished reputation. Well awaiting the deal finalisation doesn't look too smart now. Anyway decision is about 2 weeks before the Long Stop Date. Share price has obviously reflected these concerns for a while - must be a high risk of the deal not completing now. "The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is considering whether it is or may be the case that this transaction, if carried into effect, will result in the creation of a relevant merger situation under the merger provisions of the Enterprise Act 2002 and, if so, whether the creation of that situation may be expected to result in a substantial lessening of competition within any market or markets in the United Kingdom for goods or services." |

Posted at 08/12/2020 21:24 by thewheeliedealer Hi all,My mate Peter @Conkers3 and myself did a ‘Twin Petes Investing’ Podcast a few days ago and part of our discussion includes CBP which is one I noticed the other day and I think it looks pretty tempting. We also chatted about loads of other Stocks and Ideas for research. We discussed the outlook for Markets and the most likely roadmap for the next couple of months, and as usual a fair bit of educational stuff with regards to Investing. Anyway, if you use Apple, Audioboom, Overcast or Spotify you can find it under the 'Conkers Corner' Channel (you want Podcast TPI 37) and you can find it on Soundcloud at the link below. It is also now on Youtube. I hope you enjoy it and find it useful, we try to keep them light and they are totally unscripted. Cheers, WD @wheeliedealer |
Posted at 23/7/2020 16:08 by typo56 I notice that this is was effected by way of a 'cash box' structure. This can be a devious device to circumvent the pre-emption rules.I don't hold CBP but still monitor them, following the shoddy service I received from Suffolk Life. |
Posted at 05/10/2018 11:32 by typo56 Investors might like to check the employee reviews on glassdoor.co.uk Of course, these may be fake and/or a disgruntled minority. However, I've found Glassdoor gives a reasonably reliable insight into companies and in general the better performing companies have better Glassdoor reviews.CBP scores 1.8/5.0, which is poor. Only 41% approve of the CEO Only 8% recommend to a friend. That's really poor. There were two reviews last month from former employees. 26 Sep 2018 "If you don’t want to be valued, this is the company for you." Former Employee - Anonymous Employee Doesn't Recommend Neutral Outlook Disapproves of CEO I worked at Curtis Banks full-time (More than 3 years) Pros Salary People (not senior managers) Cons IT system not good enough Senior managers don’t value their staff Have grown too rapidly, processes not in place 22 Sep 2018 "Grew fast, fell quickly" Former Employee - Anonymous Employee in Bristol, England Doesn't Recommend Negative Outlook Disapproves of CEO I worked at Curtis Banks full-time (More than 3 years) Pros Nice people, good location, good Christmas parties Cons Lack of strategic thinking. Company expanded so quickly that some departments running inefficiently and independently, so cross company comms are poor. Mass exodus of the good staff over past two years since buying out Suffolk Life, when the rot really set in. Those left over dealing with a culture clash of trying to wedge two very different (politically and operationally) companies together. Pretty miserable stuff … Show More Advice to Management Show some leadership and motivate your people |
Posted at 23/8/2018 13:01 by typo56 AISHAH, I've been very unimpressed with Suffolk Life too (acquired by CBP in Jan 2016). So far it's taken them nine months to move a simple SIPP. At least I can still access the cash so am still able to trade. It took them a mere six months to move my wife's SIPP, but there was a month where they held on to the cash balance (a chunky six figure sum) and didn't forward it to the new provider, in spite of being instructed to do so.I'd dread to have to get involved with them when it comes to drawdown. Are these delays deliberate, so they can maintain the funds under control numbers? |
Posted at 15/3/2016 08:01 by saucepan Excellent results, but unfortunately the 2014 comparatives CBP quotes in the results announcement bear little relation to those used by ShareScope above - making it impossible to see whether any progress is better than expected.The one comparative metric that is clear is turnover. It came in at £16.99 million against the £15.91 forecast. |
Posted at 01/2/2016 09:17 by saucepan New highs today and still incredibly quiet here; even the maiden dividend announced on 28 January has attracted no comment. |
