SEVERAL thousand Old Mutual policyholders are due to meet on Thursday to vote on the assurance giant’s proposed plans to demutualise. The vote, to take place in Pinelands, Cape Town, is largely expected go through with well over the required 75% approval. The demutualisation — which will see it moving from a policyholder to shareholder-owned company — will require high court approval before the new firm is allowed to list.
