They will always be looking for opportunities in that sector, having a continuing cash inflow and a need to find homes for it, regardless of the state of the markets.
It doesn't mean that they will necessarily come back to AIA but they will have noted the change of govt since their "unfortunate" experience.
[QUOTE=macduffy;251437]There's lot of AIA shareholders who wouldn't agree with that. Money was talking pretty loud in 2007 but govt of the day only needed to whisper to can the deal.

THE last attempt was a flop a little money that on the surface mite have looked good
but the real bit was a holding company with interest payments and they run off with
the company on the CHEEP..
At the risk of prolonging what is a fairly pointless discussion, I'll just "make the point" that the AIA shareholders didn't get the chance to decide for themselves whether or not the offer was adequate.
still ott, in these troubled times...sp heading south imo.
Anyone know the dividend for AIA?
Thanks
