The aggregator has flagged that delays from the courts in delivering a judgement on its proposed merger with Connective may result in the scheme deed expiring.
The proposed merger between Australian Finance Group Ltd (AFG) and Connective Group may not go ahead given delays to court judgements, the listed aggregation group has suggested.
As announced in 2019, moves were underway to create the largest merged aggregation entity in broking via the proposed $120-million merger between AFG and Connective.
In June 2020 – and after several delays and rounds of consultation – the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) said that it would not oppose the merger between the two groups.
