A committee of MPs with whom I agree! You may remember that we advisers only heard about the proposed sale of LV= to US private equity via the back door. A mutual company is theoretically owned by its policyholders. Their welfare is unlikely to be top of the list if the sale goes through; although they’ll no doubt be offered a healthy bribe to agree to it, if past deals are anything to go by. I predict the doors will be closed to new business, and costs cut to the bone before it’s sold on again. Just say ‘no’, guys.
