Anglo American shareholder Legal & General Investment Management (LGIM) supports the break-up plan announced by the company last week, it said on Monday, as the deadline approaches for BHP Group to log a formal takeover offer. The radical plan to divest Anglo's less profitable coal, nickel, diamond and platinum businesses followed its rejection of two all-share takeover approaches from BHP, the world's biggest listed mining group, which had proposed a $43 billion deal on the condition that Anglo first spins off its South African operations. "The plan outlined by Anglo American is a radical but attractive strategy to create value for long-term investors," said Nick Stansbury, head of climate solutions at LGIM.

NEW YORK (Reuters) -Oil prices eased less than 1% on Monday as U.S. Federal Reserve officials said they were awaiting more signs that inflation was declining before the central bank starts cutting interest rates. Two top Fed officials said they're not yet ready to say inflation trends are again moving sustainably back to the central bank's 2% target, weighing in after data last week showed a welcome easing in consumer price pressures in April.
