IG4 Capital has acquired a controlling interest in Aenza

IG4 Capital has signed an agreement with Aenza S.A.A.’s shareholders to acquire a 25.13% stake in the company through the subscription of contracts with the purpose of exercising the political rights over shares representing 12.84% of the capital stock, and a public tender offer (PTO) for a 12.29% stake. IG4 Capital’s PTO for Aenza’s shares was a simultaneous offer in Peru for local shares and in the US for Aenza’s American depositary shares.
