Maybank acquires stake in Kim Eng

Mayban IB, formerly known as Aseam Credit, announced the completion of the acquisition for 44.63% of the issued share capital of Kim Eng.

On behalf of Maybank's subsidiary, Mayban IB, Nomura announced that all the ordinary shares other than those shares already owned by Mayban IB, its related corporation and their respective nominees have already been acquired.

Together with the market purchases on January 7, 2011 and January 10, 2011 for approximately 5.6% stake in Kim Eng, Maybank now owns a majority interest of 50.2% in Kim Eng, said Maybank in a statement.

The completion of the Acquisition closely follows Maybank’s announcement of May 5, 2011 stating its firm intention to make a mandatory unconditional cash offer for all the ordinary shares in the capital of Kim Eng other than those already owned by Mayban IB Holdings, its related corporations and their respective nominees pursuant to the satisfaction of the pre-condition to the making of the Offer.

According to Kim Eng, the Acquisition has been completed in accordance with the Share Purchase Agreements.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
