View answerI have been advised that on the 1st July 2011, under the INBS Transfer Order, all of the assets and liabilities of INBS, with certain exceptions, transferred to IBRC. On that date the Group’s net assets increased by €638m. No cash consideration changed hands. However the net assets of INBS included cash and cash equivalents of €128m.
