Jamaica rejects offer for Carib Cement
Article Abstract:
Three bids for the Jamaican Government's 180.46 million shares of Carib Cement have been turned down. The government, which holds 43% of the company, has asked UK-based Rugby, Mexico-based Cemex and Trinidad Cement to submit new bids for Jamaica's unprofitable monopoly. Cemex's initial per-share bid totaled J$4.05, compared to Trinidad Cement's and Rugby's respective offers of J$3.20 and J$2.20. The National Investment Bank apparently did not list a reason for rejecting the bids.
