Chile: Hurtado Vicuna Group has asked its minor shareholders to support a merger between its subsidiaries Cementos Bicentenario (BSA) and Cementos Polpaico. Hurtado Vicuna holds a 57.1% share in Cementos Polpaico, according to the Diario Financiero newspaper. However, two of the company’s major shareholders, Volcan and Megeve, may oppose the merger. If successful the merger would create Chile’s largest cement producer. As part of its acquisition of Cementos Polpaico, Hurtado Vicuna agreed to sell some of BSA’s assets. This potentially could involve the divestment of BSA’s 26 concrete plants.
