Pearson has agreed a deal to offload its English-language teaching unit Wall Street English to a group of funds linked to Baring Private Equity Asia and Citic Capital.
培生集团(Pearson)同意将旗下英语教学机构华尔街英语(Wall Street English)出售给与霸菱亚洲投资基金(Baring Asia Private Equity)和中信资本(Citic Capital)有关联的一组基金。
The deal, which will snag around $300m for Pearson, will help the former FT owner to cut debt by approximately $100m. The company decided that a full disposal was the option “best aligned” with its streamlining strategy.
这笔交易将为培生带来3亿美元左右的收入，将帮助这家英国《金融时报》的前东家削减约1亿美元的债务。培生认为，彻底出售这项资产是“最符合”其精简战略的选择。
