LandBank to lower PDS takeover offer

State-run Land Bank of the Philippines (LandBank) will be lowering its offer price for Philippine Dealing System Holding Corp. (PDSHC), citing a decline in the fixed income exchange operator’s net asset value.

“Basically it will be lower than P360 because we have to factor in the dividends they have declared,” LandBank President and CEO Alex Buenaventura told reporters Wednesday evening.
