As part of its restructuring, Olam will sell a 44.58% stake in Olam Agri to Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC) for US$1.78b, valuing Olam Agri at US$4.00b. It also plans to divest its remaining 19.99% stake to SALIC after three years at the closing valuation plus a 6% internal rate of return (IRR).

The group said it will focus on unlocking value in its remaining businesses, including an IPO for Olam Food Ingredients (ofi).

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
