Shareholding voting two thirds in favour of deal

Michael Watson, Canopius

Omega shareholders today approved its acquisition by Canopius.

Shareholding voting was two thirds in favour of the deal, and just 7.43% against.

The deal, subject to regulatory approval, will mean Omega delisting.

Omega shareholders hope the deal will draw a line in the sand under a difficult couple of years of boardroom battles and underwriting losses.
