The likelihood of the Blackstone Group abandoning an agreement to purchase a North American mortgage lender is growing, despite the private equity firm's reputation for never walking away from a deal, according to people familiar with the matter.
據知情人士透露,儘管私人股本公司百仕通(Blackstone Group,原譯黑石)素以從不放棄交易著稱,但該公司放棄收購北美抵押貸款發放機構PHH交易的可能性正在加大。
The original plan was for Blackstone and a unit of General Electric to pay $1.8bn for the mortgage and fleet lease business of PHH, with Blackstone taking the mortgage business and GE the vehicle leasing business.
最初計劃是百仕通和奇異公司(GE)旗下一家子公司共同支付18億美元,收購PHH的抵押貸款和車隊租賃業務,其中百仕通取得抵押貸款業務,而奇異公司獲得汽車租賃業務。
