SOME minority shareholders of United Overseas Insurance (UOI) have proposed two resolutions to be tabled at the insurance provider’s upcoming annual general meeting (AGM), in a bid to further unlock shareholder value.
These include distributing UOI’s holding of 4.27 million shares in healthcare player Haw Par Corporation to shareholders of the former, as well as appointing an independent financial adviser (IFA).
The proposal came from a group of shareholders, representing around 2.8 million shares or 4.5 per cent of UOI’s total shares, according to a letter seen by The Business Times.
