Indonesian regulator grants Maybank extension to cut BII stake

Bapepam gave the Malaysian bank until June 1 to divest BII stake which it bought for pricey $2bln.

Indonesian market regulator Bapepam has extended the deadline for Malaysia’s Maybank to sell down its stake in Pt Bank Internasional Indonesia to June 1 next year.

Maybank, Malaysia’s largest lender, said it could request for a further extension middle of next year if the sell down results in a potential loss of 10 per cent of BII’s original acquisition value.

The Malaysian bank paid over US$2 billion to take over the Indonesian lender, a move that analysts had criticised as being too pricey, according to a report in Business Times.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
