Why did Tate & Lyle choose to leave the UK stock market?
The company likely sought a higher valuation or easier access to capital, with UK market conditions and regulatory costs pushing it toward a foreign acquisition or a listing in a more favorable jurisdiction.
What happens to Tate & Lyle shareholders after the departure?
If acquired, they receive cash or shares in the acquiring entity; if delisted without a takeover, they can sell on the last trading day or hold shares in a private company, which becomes less liquid.
