B Investments Holding finished acquiring a 90% share in Orascom Financial Holding. The acquisition represents B Investments’ proactive strategy and strategic vision, and it was completed on April 17, 2024, following regulatory approval from the Financial Regulatory Authority in February.
Following preemptive measures taken by B Investments in January 2024, when its shareholders approved a capital increase from EGP 800.12 million to EGP 1.17 billion, comes this strategic deal.
