摩根大通將全資掌控英國嘉誠證券

JPMorgan Chase is this week expected to take full ownership of Cazenove, the 190-year-old UK stockbroker, in a £940m ($1.56bn) deal that will trigger bumper pay-outs for some of the City of London's top financiers.

預計美國投資銀行摩根大通(JPMorgan Chase)本周將獲得擁有190年歷史的英國券商嘉誠(Cazenove)的所有權，此筆涉資9.4億英鎊（合15.6億美元）的交易，將為倫敦金融城的許多頂級金融家?guī)碡S厚收入。

The US investment bank is in talks to buy the 50 per cent of Cazenove it does not already own by exercising an option agreed when the original tie-up between the two companies was struck five years ago.

摩根大通已持有嘉誠半數(shù)股權，目前正在洽購另外一半股權，行使5年前雙方建立合作關系時達成的一項選擇權。

The proposed buy-out will value each Cazenove share at 500p-525p, according to people close to the talks, more than double the most recent quoted price of 245p in April this year.

了解談判情況的人士透露，此筆收購交易對嘉誠的估價為每股500-525便士，比今年4月份每股245便士的最近出價高出一倍多。

Senior figures at Cazenove, as well as many high-profile former employees, stand to make huge gains from the sale.

嘉誠的高管以及許多知名的前員工，料將從此筆交易中獲得巨大收益。

David Mayhew, the chairman who joined the group 40 years ago, is set to receive the largest pay-out of £18m-£19m.

在公司效力40年的嘉誠董事長戴維•梅修(David Mayhew)將可拿到1800萬-1900萬英鎊，是所有人中最高的。

Mr Mayhew owned more than 3.6m ordinary shares and another 400,000 in restricted shares at the end of 2008, according to public filings.

根據(jù)公開披露的資料，截止2008年底，梅修持有逾360萬股嘉誠普通股，以及40萬股限制股。

Michael Power, who took over as finance director in 2001 and joined Cazenove's board five years ago, and Alan Carruthers, who has been head of equities for six years, are in line for £10m and £5m, respectively.

2001年接任財務總監(jiān)并于5年前進入董事會的邁克爾•鮑爾(Michael Power)，以及擔任證券部門主管6年之久的艾倫•卡拉瑟斯(Alan Carruthers)，將分別獲得1000萬英鎊和500萬英鎊。

Ian Hamman, a leading architect of JPMorgan Cazenove, the joint venture, and other former Cazenove luminaries including Robert Pickering, who quit as chief executive last year, and John Paynter are also in line for windfalls.

兩家公司的合資機構——摩根大通嘉誠(JPMorgan Cazenove)的主要設計者之一伊恩•哈曼(Ian Hamman)，以及其他許多曾在嘉誠任職且頗有名氣的人物，包括去年辭去首席執(zhí)行官之位的羅伯特•皮克林(Robert Pickering)，以及約翰•佩因特(John Paynter)，都將收獲頗豐。
