Korea Investment Securities to Step up as the White Knight for Choi Family at Korea Zinc
Hankyung Business Daily reported that Korea Investment Securities (KIS) is in a serious discussion with the Choi family of Korea Zinc to step up as a white knight.
KIS/Choi family are considering a plan to launch a counterbid against Jang family and MBK by investing around 2 trillion won+ along with other private equity funds.
It is probable that tender offer price of Korea Zinc could be raised by 15-25% due to a likely counterbid and current price trading 7% higher than tender offer price.
