Grab and Trans-cab deal called off

Both parties have withdrawn their application from the CCCS.

Grab’s proposed acquisition of Trans-cab Holdings via GrabRentals has been called off, as both parties agreed to withdraw the deal, the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) said.

Accordingly, the competition watchdog has ended its assessment of the proposed acquisition after both parties have withdrawn their application.

The CCCS previously stated that the proposed acquisition could significantly reduce competition in Singapore's ride-hail market. The deal would entrench Grab’s position and disadvantage rival platforms by limiting their access to drivers from Trans-cab.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
