Brammer bosses buy into placing
A round-up of the biggest director deals today so far.
Brammer's chief executive Ian Fraser and finance boss Paul Thwaite have together spent nearly £100,000 on shares in the distributor of motors, gearboxes, sprockets and other industrial products.
They both took 20,833 shares at 240p a time. Fraser now has 1,365,876 shares, or about 1.2% of the company, and Thwaite has 951,619.
The shares were bought as part of a placing announced earlier this month, to fund the acquisition of the business and assets of Buck & Hickman, a distributor of industrial products from building materials provider Travis Perkins.
