Article excerpt:
NIB Holdings, Australia's fifth-biggest private health insurer, has urged shareholders in GMHBA to accept its revised $180 million offer. The move comes after Geelong-based GMHBA's board rejected the proposal, as well as an earlier $140 million all-cash bid, without putting it to shareholders. The GMHBA board said the bid undervalued the company and would not enhance the insurance-related interests of its members.
