Centum Investment Company Plc has received an exemption from the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) to expand share purchases under its proposed share buyback programme beyond the 25 percent daily volumes cap.

Rules on the volume of shares to be purchased on a daily basis during a share buyback are designed to prevent insider dealings and maintain liquidity in the stock, among other regulatory objectives.
