比利时保险公司富杰斯 (Ageas) 在此前两次收购提议均被拒绝后，放弃了收购英国保险公司 Direct Line 的出价。 Belgian insurer Ageas has abandoned its bid to acquire UK insurer Direct Line after two previous takeover proposals were rejected. Ageas 此前对 Direct Line 的估值约为 32 亿英镑（41 亿美元），但这家英国公司的董事会认为这些报价“没有吸引力”。 Ageas had valued Direct Line at around £3.2bn ($4.1bn), but the UK company's board deemed the offers "unattractive." Direct Line 的新任首席执行官 Adam Winslow 表达了对该公司独立未来的信心，这一结果被视为英国股市的胜利。 Direct Line's new CEO, Adam Winslow, has expressed confidence in the company's standalone future, and this outcome is seen as a win for the UK's stock market.
