Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer divested himself of his 10% ownership of the Midgam polling company run by Mano Geva before he was sworn into office, according to documents published by the Calcalist financial daily.

The report says that Dermer’s consulting company, Adidar, had a 10% ownership in the company known for its election polls, and they were placed in a trust until 2029 — so he could reclaim them if he does not serve in the next government.
