Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi


A Thai tycoon on Monday moved closer to taking over Singapore conglomerate Fraser and Neave (F&N) after his Indonesian rival pulled out of a rare auction.

The offer by TCC Assets, controlled by billionaire Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi, is still subject to approval by F&N shareholders.

Property firm Overseas Union Enterprise (OUE), linked to Indonesian tycoon Mochtar Riady, said in a statement it was not revising its S$13.1 billion bid, which translated to S$9.08 a share, made in mid-November.

TCC at the weekend raised its bid for the F&N shares it does not already own to S$9.55 apiece from S$8.88.
