Building materials group CRH has revealed plans to delist entirely from the London Stock Exchange two-and-a-half years after it switched its main listing to New York in yet another knock to the UK markets.
The Dublin-based group said that as part of a review of its London Stock Exchange (LSE) listings launched last month, it has “carefully considered, among other factors, the level of trading activity for its ordinary shares on the LSE as well as the additional cost, regulatory and administrative obligations arising from retaining the LSE listings”.
