CBL Insurance IPO

Just a trivial point, but does anyone know where the "CBL" name comes from? Credit Bonds Ltd/Liability or something like that is my guess?

Apologies in advance if this sounds like a blatant ramp. I read a recent article in the AFR sounding out various fund managers/brokers on their best long and short picks for 2017. One of them - sorry, the name escapes me - picked CBL as his/her best long, mentioning inter alia that they are NZ's biggest exporter of financial services. I'm not sure that there's much competition in that particular regard but if the idea gains a bit of traction amongst Aussie investors we may well see further upside to the CBL shareprice. There, I said this may sound like a ramp so can anyone can verify the article?

Disc: Yes, I'm a holder.

Try one of the other headings for this article - it seems to appear in various guises!

Thanks, Hectorplains. Sure beats reading under time pressure in the library and then trying to remember the salient points!

Interesting paywall, not much of a wall, the content is too long to post here but I put it on my website:

Sorry the formatting is a bit off.
