MT Newswires Live06-22

Lloyds Banking Group (LYG) is preparing for a potential bid to acquire Aldermore, which has been put up for sale by its parent company FirstRand Group, Sky News reported Monday, citing sources familiar with the matter.

The report said Lloyds is considering the transaction because of Aldermore's small business lending and project finance capabilities, but noted that a formal bid is not guaranteed.

Lloyds Banking Group and FirstRand Group did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' requests for comment.
