Key developments for Standard Chartered PLC (SCBFF)

Standard Chartered Open To Acquisitions

Standard Chartered Plc said it remains watchful about the outlook for the global economy after making “good progress” in the third quarter. “It remains too early to call a sustained recovery and we remain cautious on the outlook,” said Chief Executive Officer Peter Sands in a statement on October 29. “However, it is ever clearer that our markets in Asia, Africa and the Middle East are emerging more quickly and stronger than a number of markets in the West.” Finance Director Richard Meddings told journalists on a conference call, “We remain open to acquisitions”. The bank has considered “a significant number” of potential targets, he added. The bank is looking to sell Indian Depository Receipts in the second quarter of 2010 and is “exploring the possibility” of a listing in China, Meddings said.
