Should Nasdaq's Deal with Borse Dubai be blocked by US Legislators?

September 26, 2007

Analysis by:Lynton Jones, Chairman,

Paulson Faces test on Dubai's | www.ft.com

The FT article makes clear that those US legislators who blocked the attempt by Dubai to take over certain US Prt facilities may now be aiming to block the sale by Nasdaq of 20% of its equity to Borse Dubai. This is a serious potential protectionist move which must pose questions about the openness of US financial markets.

Clearer M&A rules coming - but don't hold your breath!

September 20, 2006

Analysis by:Hugh Simpson, Principal,

EU to tighten banking M&A supervisory procedures | www.forbes.com

- Proposal is intended to standardise grounds for approving or rejecting cross-border acquisitions of financial institutions across Europe

- An interesting aspect is the proposal to extend the rules to exchanges

- But it is only a proposal for a directive at this stage. Implementation will take years, so it won't affect any deals under consideration now.
