DUBAI (Reuters) – Abu Dhabi-based investment vehicle CYVN Holdings has entered a non-binding agreement to buy 100% of carmaker McLaren’s automotive business from Mumtalakat, the sovereign wealth fund of Bahrain, the two Gulf firms said on Tuesday.
Under the potential deal, CYVN Holdings would also acquire a non-controlling stake in McLaren Group,” CYVN and Mumtalakat said in a statement, without providing further details.
McLaren said in April Mumtalakat had acquired full ownership of the group, which includes the British supercar maker and Formula One team McLaren Racing.
