LSEG investors sell down stake in £2.75bn deal

(Sharecast News) – A consortium of investors in London Stock Exchange Group have sold a tranche of shares, it was confirmed on Thursday, raising around £2.75bn.
BCP York Holdings – which includes US private equity firm Blackstone, Thomson Reuters, the Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board and Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC – sold the stock to institutional investors at 7,950p per voting share.
