By Iain Gilbert

Date: Tuesday 06 Nov 2018

LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Chesnara chief executive John Deane purchased 6,298 ordinary shares in the London-listed life and pensions consolidator.
Deane, who took over as chief executive back in January 2015, acquired the shares at an average price of 285.80p, for a total value of £17,999.68.

Back in August, Chesnara revealed that its pre-tax profits had halved throughout the first six months of its trading year after its Scildon unit had been hit by losses on Italian bonds.

IFRS half-year pre-tax profits fell to £26.5m from £51.6m recorded a year earlier, while economic value earnings net of tax slipped to £700.8m from the £723m seen twelve months prior.

As of 1630 GMT, Chesnara shares had slipped 1.88% to 355.50p.
