First, Insight believes it is in its clients’ long-term financial interests that the companies in which it invests behave responsibly. Failure to do so typically provokes government and societal sanctions such as fines, litigation, new regulation and taxes, consumer boycotts and damage to reputation, all of which create material risks to long-term shareholder value. Insight therefore analyses and engages with companies to assess and to encourage them to operate according to best practice standards on a range of environmental, ethical and social issues.

  • Anticipated Acquisition by Barratt Developments Plc of Wilson Bowden Plc
    Anticipated acquisition by Barratt Developments plc of Wilson Bowden plc The OFT's decision on reference under section 33(1) given on 13 April 2007. Full text of decision published 24 April 2007. Please note that square brackets indicate text or figures which have been deleted or replaced with a range at the request of the parties and third parties for reasons of commercial confidentiality. PARTIES 1. Barratt Developments plc (Barratt), with 33 operating divisions, is one of the largest residential house building groups in the UK. It is also active - albeit to a minor extent - in the development of commercial property. 2. Wilson Bowden plc (Wilson Bowden) is also a major residential house building group. However, a significant proportion of Wilson Bowden's total operations is attributable to commercial property development. In the year ended 31 December 2005, Wilson Bowden's turnover in the UK amounted to approximately £1,231 million. TRANSACTION 3. Barratt is proposing to acquire the entire issued share capital of Wilson Bowden. The anticipated transaction was notified to the OFT on 1 March 2007. The administrative target date for the OFT's decision is 30 April 2007. JURISDICTION 4. As a result of the proposed transaction, Barratt and Wilson Bowden will cease to be distinct. Wilson Bowden's UK turnover exceeds £70 million, 1 and the turnover test in section 23(1)(b) of the Enterprise Act 2002 (the Act) is consequently satisfied. The OFT therefore believes that it is or may be the case that arrangements are in progress or in contemplation which, if carried into effect, will result in the creation of a relevant merger situation.
