SIAS urges SIA board to sweeten its offer for Tiger Airways
It says minority shareholders aren't satisfied and may not accept bid
Singapore
THE Securities Investors Association (Singapore) or SIAS has appealed to the Singapore Airlines (SIA) board for a revision of the group's takeover offer for Tiger Airways, highlighting that a sweeter offer might help secure the acceptance needed to delist the budget carrier.
This comes a week after independent financial adviser (IFA) Maybank Kim Eng delivered a "fair and reasonable" opinion on the 41 Singapore cents per share offer and recommended that shareholders accept the offer unless they are able to secure a higher price on the open market.
