Peter,
The stock exchange is the property of its
members.
They will sell it in return for shares in the
ASX. They will do so, because in a few years time there won't be any
larger N Z owned-or partly-owned companies left and by then
any deal won't be worth much to these brokers. It is just a fait accompli,
I think.
One can only grin when these members talk about a
'merger', it sounds better than a sell out: The ASX is so much larger; the NZ
members will either get cash or shares or both presumably.
It just joins the INCIS project and a lot of other
infamous have-beens in my opinion.
If Australia or any other country have systems
which work, why can't we adopt-or adjust to-their
competencies? Why do we always finish up with something not worth
having?
What a
waste of resources!
Gerry
