Linklaters has advised Investec on the recently completed demerger and listing of its asset management business (now known as Ninety One). Following the demerger, Investec retained an interest of approximately 25% in Ninety One, with approximately 55% being held by Investec’s shareholders and approximately 20% held by senior management of Ninety One.
Stuart Bedford, corporate partner at Linklaters said:
“This milestone transaction will allow both Investec and Ninety One to focus on their respective growth paths and enhance long-term prospects for the benefit of their shareholders.
