AFTER A FALSE START OR TWO, COMPUTER PEOPLE REALLY IS COMING TO MARKET

By CBR Staff Writer

After all the alarums and excursions going right back to late 1984, it was with some trepidation that we declared a few weeks back that data processing recruitment consultancy Computer People Plc, based in London’s West End, really would come to market in May, but our confidence was justified, and Hill Samuel as banker and Wood Mackenzie as broker are arranging a flotation under the brand new mini offer for sale rules. These allow a lead broker to place 75% of the shares in the issue with its clients, and to offer only the remaining 25% to the public. The pathfinder prospectus was published on Friday, and the offer, expected to value the company at about UKP20m, will be made around the middle of the month, for a quotation on the Full List.
