    Merger of equals

    The London Stock Exchange Group (LSE) and Deutsche Boerse have agreed terms for a "merger of equals"
    ....
    Under the terms of the deal, LSE shareholders will own 45.6% of the new holding company, while Deutsche Boerse shareholders will own 54.4%.
    Perhaps I'm being a bit thick but 45.6% vs 54.4% is not equal.

      I thought you were getting married.

      MrsBP is against equality - marriage or otherwise. In her opinion, women are far superior to men and she will not concede an inch.
