“Retail investors have been allocated 60 per cent of the shares on issue. Eligible Medibank Private and ahm policyholders have been allocated 33.2 per cent of shares allocated under the Retail Offer excluding the Broker Firm Offer.” Senator Cormann commented “A progressive scaling policy has been applied to the General Public Offer, Policyholder Offer and Employee Offer to ensure all applicants have been allocated shares, with larger applications being scaled back more than smaller applications”
