Felda Global Ventures Holdings IPO

Felda Global Ventures Holdings (FGV) is expected to list by April or May 2012.
IPO-Boon or Bane?
 Three foreign and two local merchant bankers are tasked with the job as to the timing of the IPO.

The FGV will involved the leasing of  only FELDA-owned land to FGV.

As Koperasi FELDA is the biggest owner of FGV, their rights on the surface seems quite protected.

According to government sources, FELDA  cannot hold on only to oil palm and rubber as their chief money earners as high prices cannot be guaranteed all the time

It added it pays for FELDA to look beyond bottom line earnings from just these two commodities and FGV is poised to go beyond this horizon by looking at other potential earning sources.
