Welcome to the Northern Rock Small Shareholders' Group Blog

Welcome to the new NRSSG blog. We hope to use this to communicate with our members but also to post up occassional news stories and also to give you the opportunity to comment on the latest developments.

Please let us know by adding comments to this post if you have any feedback or suggestions.

Our aims:

1. Our preference is for Northern Rock to remain an independent, publicly quoted business headquartered in the North East, supporting the Northern Rock Charitable Foundation.

2. We are opposed to a 'fire sale' of the company's assets at below true value, and the dismemberment of the business.

3. If the company is acquired, our preference will be for a buyer of the shares who gives us the option of remaining shareholders going forward.

4. We will resist pressure by authorities to compel Northern Rock to actions which are not in the best interest of the small shareholders.

Any small shareholder is welcome to join the group by emailing or writing with the name and contact details of each shareholder (if shares held jointly). There is no membership charge.
