        .. Maybe because the uk is responsible for cutting half of the company out of the customs union and single market, making operations for a binational company extremely difficult??!

        Much of the FTSE is made up of multinationals. Why should a UK shareholder vote to give up Unilever if there is not benefit for them - many may actually lose due to forced selling

        The argument against seems to be concerned with the quality of the UK’s main stock market index, rather than the interest of Unilever.

        UBS analysts agree with you, report 9/10/18 titled: "Unification likely to be value enhancing". Makes case the Unilever will be able to more easily sell or spin off under-performing brands, and buy others.
