The hybrid offer which would open on Monday, December 15, 2008 is being handled by Capital Asset Limited as the Issuing House. Although the offer would have commenced before now, Fisayo Oyedeji, chief executive officer of the company had told an online journal, reasons the offer did not commence as scheduled.

The reasons mentioned include the market meltdown experienced on the nation’s stock market and observations made by the company’s financial advisers in connection with the hybrid offer; which needed to be sorted out by the board of directors. Other issues bothered on the pricing of the hybrid offer.

The company had increased its authorised share capital to N2.5 billion from N250.1 million. Proceeds of the hybrid offer would be used to enhance the firm’s Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in order to deliver quality service to its customers.

CORETRUST also intends to enhance its brand both locally and internationally.  - Businessday
