Introduction Discovery shareholders are referred to the announcements released on the Stock Exchange News Service (“SENS”) on 24 February 2015, relating to the unaudited interim results and cash dividend declaration for the six months ended 31 December 2014 and the intention to undertake an underwritten renounceable rights issue to qualifying Discovery shareholders (“Rights Issue”), and to today’s “Rights Issue Finalisation Announcement”. As communicated in these announcements, a portion of the Rights Issue proceeds will be used to fund growth in adjacent financial services markets in South Africa. Discovery has an excellent track record in expanding its behavioural insurance offering both locally and globally. This shared value model is underpinned by Vitality – Discovery’s world‐leading behavioural‐based wellness programme. Vitality provides Discovery with a unique and powerful data asset of wellness, lifestyle and consumer behaviour which offers insight into member risk profiles and enables better underwriting beyond what can be derived from purely financial behaviour. 2. Background to DiscoveryCard The DiscoveryCard was established in 2004 by Discovery and First National Bank (A division of FirstRand Bank Limited) (“FNB”). The establishment of DiscoveryCard was predicated on Discovery’s ability to offer a differentiated, relevant value proposition based on Vitality and Discovery’s behaviour‐linked model, combined with FNB’s credit card and operational expertise. The business model was constructed with Discovery receiving the revenue required to fund the integrated behavioural incentives and Discovery sharing in 20% of the underlying DiscoveryCard profit.

    2019 Florida Handbook on Civil Discovery Practice

    Florida Conference of Circuit Judges Hon. Angela J. Cowden, Chair Conference of County Court Judges of Florida Hon. David L. Denkin, President Trial Lawyers Section of The Florida Bar Mindy McLaughlin, Chair TLS Discovery Handbook Committee Nick Mizell, Editor and Chair Hon. Elizabeth Rice Hon. Ralph Artigliere John Williams Prof. William Hamilton Rachael Loukonen Weston F. Smith Kim Ashby Joseph “Skooter” Kinman PREFACE In 1994, the Trial Lawyers Section of The Florida Bar, the Conference of Circuit Judges, and the Conference of County Court Judges formed a joint committee to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas on how to improve the day-to-day practice of law for trial lawyers and trial judges. At the committee’s first meeting, it was the overwhelming consensus that “discovery abuse” should be the top priority. The original handbook and the later editions are the result of the continued joint efforts of the Trial Lawyers Section, the Conference of Circuit Judges, and the Conference of County Court Judges. It is intended to be a quick reference for lawyers and judges on many recurring discovery problems. It does not profess to be the dispositive legal authority on any particular issue. It is designed to help busy lawyers and judges quickly access legal authority for the covered topics. The ultimate objective is to help curtail perceived abuses in discovery so that the search for truth is not thwarted by the discovery process itself. The reader should still do his or her own research, to include a review of local administrative orders and rules. The first edition of this handbook was prepared in the fall of 1995.

Introduction Shareholders of RMI (“RMI Shareholders”) are advised that RMI has entered into definitive agreements to acquire up to 29.9% of the issued share capital of Hastings Group Holdings plc (“Hastings” or the “Group”) (“Acquisition”) at a price per share (depending on the closing dates) between 248 pence and 255 pence, for an aggregate cash consideration (depending on the closing dates) of between approximately GBP487.3 million and GBP499.5 million (“Acquisition Consideration”). RMI will become the single largest shareholder of Hastings post implementation of the Acquisition. This Acquisition is consistent with RMI’s previously articulated strategy that, in addition to its role as an active and value-adding shareholder in its existing portfolio companies, RMI intends to optimise, diversify and modernise its investment portfolio through investments across a broad spectrum of scale and lifecycles of financial services businesses. The Acquisition meets RMI’s objectives of diversifying geographically, adding a significant traditional financial services business alongside its existing portfolio in partnership with a high quality and entrepreneurial management team. 2. Overview of Hastings Hastings began operations in 1997 and the ordinary shares in Hastings were admitted to the Premium listing segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom (“FCA”) and to trading on the Main Market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange (“LSE”) on 15 October 2015.

    The Journal of Applied Business Research – November/December 2014 Volume 30, Number 6 A Risk-Adjusted Evaluation Of The JSE Top 40 As An International Investment Option André Heymans, North-West University, South Africa Chris van Heerden, North-West University, South Africa ABSTRACT In response to the wealth destruction caused by the 2007/2008 global financial crisis, many developed economies have lowered their interest rates to improve their balance sheets (SARB, 2008-2012). However, in order for investors to sustain expected returns they will have to deviate from the traditional approach of investing in government bonds and consider investing in emerging markets, which are considered as potential drivers of global growth (Deloitte Consulting LLP, 2012). The goal of this paper is to establish the importance of considering South Africa as an emerging market investment opportunity, but also to acknowledge its ability of outperforming several other common emerging markets during the post-financial crisis period. This was done by means of a novel approach to the Omega ratio. The results from this paper confirms this, illustrating that the performance of the JSE Top 40 will compensate for the additional political risk that emerging market investments possess (Anshuman, 2010). Keywords: Emerging Markets; Omega Ratio; Risk-Adjusted Performance; JSE 1. INTRODUCTION here is a large body of literature on the returns characteristics of emerging markets. Many academics points out that investing in emerging markets are beneficial in international portfolios because of their T low correlation with the rest of the developed world (Claessens, Dasgupta & Glen, 1995; Rouwenhorst, 1999), and because emerging market returns seem to be influenced more by local rather than global information variables.
