Imagine a big company called Assura that owns lots of buildings used for healthcare in Britain. A different company, KKR, and a pension fund wanted to buy Assura! They offered a huge amount of money – $2 billion! But Assura said no, thanks.
- KKR made several offers to buy Assura.
- Assura's share price went up a lot after the offers.
- The pension fund, USS, decided not to be involved anymore.
- KKR has until March 14th to decide if they want to make another offer.
Company | Offer | Outcome |
---|---|---|
KKR & USS | $2 billion | Rejected |
Assura Share Price | Increased 18% | Still below 2020 peak |
This is all about business deals, not cryptocurrencies. It shows how much money can be involved in buying and selling companies!
