Standard Life to pay 42m for Focus Solutions

Financial services software and consulting company Focus Solutions Group plc has agreed to a 140p per share recommended cash offer by life insurance major Standard Life plc.

The offer values Focus at around 42m and represents a premium of 33.3% to the closing price on November 8, before talks were announced.

A good move for Standard Life? Who knows, it’s a relatively small price and acquisition for the insurance market, even in these recession hit times.
