Takeover battle looms at P&O
A takeover battle is looming at P&O after it emerged Singapore ports operator PSA International has trumped an earlier bid for the company.
P&O had accepted a £3.3 billion bid from Dubai Ports World in November and scheduled a meeting for January 20 to approve the deal.
But the meeting has now been delayed for around two weeks as the board mull over an improved bid of £3.5 billion from PSA.
DP World, which stressed it would retain P&O’s struggling ferry operation, said it remained committed to its offer.
