Temasek aims to raise its stake in Zegna to 10%, acquiring treasury shares and securing a board seat, enhancing its influence in the luxury fashion sector.
SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Singapore state investment company Temasek plans to raise its stake in Italian luxury fashion house Ermenegildo Zegna to up to 10%, two sources familiar with the matter said on Tuesday.
Temasek already owns just under 5% of Zegna and would acquire another 5% in treasury shares, one of the sources said.
The transaction will bring additional money to the company, the second source added, defining it "a purely financial deal".
Zegna currently has a market capitalisation of around $2.3 billion.
Temasek will get one non-executive seat in the fashion house's board of directors next year, the sources said, adding that an announcement is expected later in the day.
Temasek and Zegna declined to comment.
