THE litany of complaints about the biggest Asian buyout deal became so bad that Singapore's sovereign wealth fund decided to act.
A bidding process for Global Logistic Properties, the US$9.7 billion warehouse developer, has been running since the start of the year. In May, representatives of GIC Pte Ltd, the company's largest shareholder, called the GLP working team managing the sale into their offices, according to people familiar with the matter.
