Intel ID : 235254
Synopsis

Samsung (LSE: SMS, LSE: SMSD), an electronics multinational company, is looking for a new partner to invest and acquire a stake in Pampa Camarones mine in Chile, as reported by Diario Financiero on 4 April 2016.

Samsung, the majority shareholder of the copper mine with 70% of the capital, could be interested in divesting a controlling stake in Pampa Camarones, by looking for a partner that would provide liquidity to the company, due to the decrease in copper price, and the operational complications in the mine.

This process could include a capital increase, to allow for a new partner. This deal will not include Korean companies or management companies, so the new company will take control and Samsung will have a passive role.

Samsung (LSE: SMSN, LSE: SMSD), empresa multinacional electrónica, se encontraría en la búsqueda de un nuevo socio que aporte capital y tome el control de la mina Pampa Camarones en Chile, según ha informado Diario Financiero el 4 de abril de 2016.

La firma coreana, accionista mayoritaria de la mina de cobre, con el 70% de participación aproximadamente, estaría buscando desprenderse del control de Pampa Camarones con la búsqueda de un socio que pueda inyectar liquidez a la compañía, debido a la disminución en el precio del cobre, sumado a las complicaciones operacionales de la mina por parte de Samsung.

En ese proceso se podría dar un aumento de capital para que ingrese el nuevo socio. A esta operación no concurrirán los coreanos ni los gestores, por lo que la nueva compañía tomará el control y Samsung tendría un rol pasivo.
