Permira was revealed as the fund that is in acquisition talks for OSI Restaurant’s Asian subsidiaries, reported Money Today here (Korean).
The report, which cited industry sources, claimed that Permira, a Europe-based private equity fund, is the fund that had reportedly offered to buy the restaurant chain’s Asian operations.
The report added that Permira had said it is prepared to sign a formal purchase agreement within a month.
According to Permira’s website –
Permira was founded in 1985 and has made over 190 private equity investments. We raised our first pan-European fund in 1997, investing out of four offices in Frankfurt, London, Milan and Paris. Since then we have continued to grow steadily and today are present on three continents.
Today, the firm’s teams advise funds with a total committed capital of approximately €20billion (US$28 billion).
