AvW INVEST AG increases its participation in the Chinese Cash
Financial Services Group (CFSG), which is headquartered in Hong Kong,
to more than five percent. This makes AvW Invest AG the largest
European shareholder and strategic investor of CFSG. The purchase
price is approximately 1.6 million euros. By means of a 750 million
capital increase, CFSG will increase its capital stock from its
current level to approximately 1.3 billion shares.
In the course of this capital increase of CFSG, AvW Invest AG has
acquired 40 million shares. Thus, AvW Invest AG now holds a total of
71.5 million shares, which is approximately 5.4 percent of CFSG’s
capital stock. The required registration with the regulatory
authorities in Hong Kong is the responsibility of CFSG.
With this acquisition, AvW Invest AG continues its course of
expansion in the financial services area. In addition, this step is
an excellent preparation for the distribution of the AvW security
bond in China. "This strategic participation constitutes another
important step towards Asia," says Wolfgang Auer of Welsbach,
Chairman of AvW’s Board of Management. "This acquisition makes us the
first Austrian company with a large-scale participation in a Chinese
financial services provider that is listed on the stock exchange."
