I'd love to know. Do they pay these interns anything ? One online dictionary definition follows :-
internship
[ˈɪntəːnʃɪp]
NOUN
the position of a student or trainee who works in an organization, sometimes without pay, in order to gain work experience or satisfy requirements for a qualification.
"they encouraged students to apply for newspaper internships"
NORTH AMERICAN
the position of a medical intern in a hospital.
"he served his medical internship at Southern Pacific Hospital"

What do you think Winner. Marvelous cultural ESG or just a way to hire free or very cheap labour ?

Follow Heartland on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/heartland-bank-nz/ , you can keep up with their fantastic work in Manawa Ako, Diversity, Rainbow and Maori Language. Very progressive they are.

I’m pretty certain they’d be paid .....in Heartlands case at least the living wage I’d say

Not slave labour or anything

Good on them for doing this ....other banks do it but probably not the focus on Maori kids

They seem to think that the Motor business as a separate entity may assist in highlighting any intrinsic value which may not be reflected in current bank-based benchmarking.

Fair enough

Demerger is one way. Demergers were popular in Australia a few years ago and there’s been the odd one on the NZX

One I was involved in was Orica. They had explosives and chemical businesses as well as a paint company in Dulux. They reckoned Dulux was the cause of the Orica share price not being what ‘it should be’

Dulux was demerged ....every Orica shareholder got shares in DLX at $2.50 ....DLX share price kept rising and was eventually taken over close to $10

The Orica share price is less than what it was but that’s another story.

Thanks winner. I'm not convinced it'd be a good idea for HGH at this point

You could draw that conclusion but ....


HGH might be listed on ASX but essentially doesn't trade on it -- a handful of trades (literally) over the last year

I'm struggling a bit with the attempted financial re-engineering as well. Perhaps they should simply focus on fine tuning the business to give the very best earnings per share and growth in same and in the due course of time the share price will look after itself, like its started too in the last couple of weeks.

They obviously believe that Motor should be valued at higher multiples than a bank

Sum of the parts more than the whole seems to be in their thinking
