Article Abstract:
Confederation Treasury Services Ltd.'s (CTSL) creditors, which includes holders of derivatives and Eurobonds, approved a settlement worth around C$740 million. The deal settles outstanding litigation between insurer Confederation Life Insurance Co.'s Canadian and US liquidators and creditors of its investment unit, CTSL, which got into the risky business of currency and interest rates derivatives. The settlement calls for the creditors group to receive C$370 million or 70 cents on the dollar, with the US liquidator getting an equal amount. CTSL encountered a barrage of legal suits after it had swept over C$600 million out of a Michigan trust fund set up to protect US policyholders, replacing it with IOUs in the form of promissory notes.

Article Abstract:
Great-West Lifeco Inc. of Winnipeg in Manitoba, Canada, is required to shoulder the share payment option of London Insurance Group Inc. stockholder Mark Shoom, based on a ruling by Ontario Court Justice Sidney Lederman of the General Division. His decision, which was founded on section 206 of the Canada Business Corporations Act, will allow Shoom to collect over C$1 million based on C$43.40 in shares in Great-West Lifeco as of February 27, 1998. Shoom would have gotten less for his shares if Great-West Lifeco had its way after it acquired London Insurance for C$2.9 billion in 1997.
