Blackstone et al. in second round bids for Intertrust
Blackstone, Cinven and Pamplona are bidding for Dutch corporate management business Intertrust Group after Carlyle and Goldman Sachs Private Equity dropped out of the race, according to reports.
The three GPs will be bidding for the business sold by Waterland in the second round of the auction on 7 November, Reuters reported.
The transaction is said to have attracted interest from banks which are expected to provide a debt package worth around €400-500m. The business currently has €250m in debt on its books.
Waterland bought Intertrust in September 2009. The business employs 1,000 people in 20 countries globally; its core business is setting up and managing holding companies.
