RE:RE:2 requirement need to be metDo not think that Smith can do much about it except complain about it....banks are federally regulated
Notice that the price is only around $42 this morning but keep in mind that share price of NA is also down about 5% or so and this is a share swap deal....plus there is always the FED saying no to the deal as it reduces competition.....not likely they will say no with them approving the Royal Bank deal but you never know....they may say this is too much consolidion in banking and not approve the deal....there is that risk
It will also take about a year or so to even close the deal so if buying today you may have to wait to get your $50 plus price
