Union Pacific is said to near deal for Norfolk Southern

Union Pacific Corp. could reach an agreement to acquire Norfolk Southern Corp. and create a transcontinental rail behemoth as soon as early next week, people familiar with the matter said. The deal, which would be the largest deal ever in the rail industry, is likely to include both cash and stock, according to the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information. Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern announced on Thursday that they were in advanced talks. Details of an agreement, including the timing and structure, could still change, the people said. Norfolk Southern is set to report second quarter earnings on July 29. A representative for Union Pacific declined to comment, while a spokesperson for Norfolk Southern didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. A merger would transform the North American rail market, marrying Union Pacific's network across the western U.S. with Norfolk's East Coast routes. It would bring together two companies with a combined market value of roughly $200 billion, and heap pressure on rivals including CSX Corp. and Berkshire Hathaway Inc.'s BNSF to pursue deals of their own to keep pace. Omaha, Nebraska-based Union Pacific's shares have fallen 2.8% since July 16, the day before the first media reports about merger talks, giving it a market value of roughly $133 billion. Norfolk Southern has climbed about 8.5% during the same period, giving the Atlanta-based railroad a market capitalization of almost $64 billion. Historically rail mergers have been difficult to consummate given the inhospitable regulatory environment. But there had been speculation that the industry was headed for another round of consolidation, fueled by the assumption that President Donald Trump's administration could take a more amenable view to major deals than previous governments. "We've done a lot of homework to get us to this place," Union Pacific Chief Executive Officer Jim Vena told analysts after the talks were announced. One of the current Trump administration's earliest moves was to elevate Patrick Fuchs to chair the Surface Transportation Board. Fuchs is seen as a proponent of industry consolidation.

Allianz Life confirms data breach affecting majority of 1.4M US customers

MINNEAPOLIS -- Hackers gained access to personal data on the majority of the 1.4 million customers of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America, the company confirmed Saturday. Minneapolis-based Allianz Life, a subsidiary of Munich, Germany-based Allianz SE, said the data breach happened on July 16 when a 'malicious threat actor' gained access to a third-party, cloud-based system used by the company. 'The threat actor was able to obtain personally identifiable data related to the majority of Allianz Life's customers, financial professionals, and select Allianz Life employees, using a social engineering technique,' Allianz Life said in a statement. "We took immediate action to contain and mitigate the issue and notified the FBI." The company said its own systems were not accessed, just the third-party's platform. Allianz Life said its investigation is ongoing and that the company has begun reaching out to the impacted individuals. It said the incident involves only Allianz Life in the U.S., not other Allianz corporate entities. In the case of data breaches, a 'social engineering technique' usually involves using trickery to gain access. Spokesman Brett Weinberg said he couldn't provide details because they are still investigating. Allianz Life also reported the breach to multiple other authorities, including the Maine Attorney General's Office. A filing on the agency's website said the company discovered the breach the day after it happened, and that it will be offering those affected 24 months of identity theft protection and credit monitoring. Allianz Life was known as North American Life and Casualty until it was acquired by German conglomerate Allianz SE in 1979 and changed its name to Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America. It has nearly 2,000 employees in U.S., with the majority working in Minnesota, according to its website. It is one of five North American subsidiaries of the Munich-based global financial services group Allianz SE, which says it serves more than 125 million customers worldwide.
