Abu Dhabi realty merger to salve state fund's pain | Reuters

Abu Dhabi's move to merge builders Aldar Properties and Sorouh Real Estate is geared towards shoring up sovereign wealth fund Mubadala and stabilising the emirate's brittle real estate market.


Bankers say that a deal is likely to be effected through a share swap, which would dilute Mubadala's sizeable stake in Aldar, a developer hit by stagnant sales and falling asset prices, and improve its ability to tap capital markets.


"Mubadala will emerge as the winner in this merger ... the terms of the deal are not clear but it's likely that the merger will reduce Mubadala's stake and its exposure to Aldar," said an Abu Dhabi-based property sector analyst.
