Since Cheil Industries (028260 KS) and Samsung C&amp;T (000830 KS) announced their merger in an effort to increase Lee family control of Samsung Electronics shares (and shares in other group companies) on a post-inheritance-tax pro-forma basis, the Smartkarma universe has been regularly updating readers regarding the situation.A RECAP:  <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insight_providers/5" target="_blank">Arzish</a> started things off with <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/samsung-c-t-too-big-to-cheil" target="_blank">Samsung C&amp;T: Too Big to Cheil</a> just after deal announcement. After Elliot announced its increased position, I followed up with <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/samsung-c-t-completely-the-wrong-price-trillions-being-left-on-the-table" target="_blank">"Completely the Wrong Price: Trillions being left on the table"</a> then a <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/samsung-c-t-quicknote-30-40-foreign-institutional-investors-ask-for-fairer-swap-rate" target="_blank">QuickNote</a> suggesting Dutch national pension manager APG was leading a group of foreign shareholders to ask C&amp;T for a better merger ratio, and a <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/samsung-c-t-quicknote-volume-patterns-and-ownership-changes-since-deal-announcement" target="_blank">piece</a> on volume changes and ownership since the deal was announced. <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insight_providers/16" target="_blank">Crispin Francis</a> added a <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/shareholder-activism-around-samsung-c-t-legal-limitations" target="_blank">piece</a> on the legal limits of shareholder activism. Another <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/helmets-on-c-t-sells-treasury-shares-to-pensions-increase-stake" target="_blank">piece</a> was added when C&amp;T announced it had sold its Treasury Shares to KCC Corp (a large shareholder of Cheil Industries and a friendly party) and Crispin followed up with a <a href="http://www.smartkarma.com/insights/treasury-shares-differences-and-similarities-to-precedent-cases" target="_blank">piece</a> on legal precedents to injunctions filed against treasury share sales in proxy battle situations with a 'hostile' party. The discussion section of several pieces have been of additional interest I think. THIS NOTE adds a table - as comprehensive as possible - of cross holdings among Lee family members, the Samsung foundations, and major Samsung group companies (listed and unlisted). It can be used to estimate where the potential interest lies in future mergers in order to obtain greater family control.More below the fold.
