A decision has been made to maintain the current shareholder structure at IHC Merwede. The IHC Merwede Supervisory Board – in addition to all of the current shareholders – is comfortable with the financial strength of the company for the next year.

With the support of JP Morgan and Rabobank M&A, IHC Merwede has carried out extensive research over the past few months into the possibility of broadening the shareholding structure. However, the current situation within the global financial markets has resulted in limited opportunities to achieve this.
