THE manager of Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) on Tuesday said it had agreed to purchase the remaining 60 per cent interest in 14 data centres in the US from its sponsor for about US$210.9 million.
The portfolio of 14 data centres is held by Mapletree Redwood Data Centre Trust (MRDCT), in which MIT already has a 40 per cent stake. Mapletree DC Ventures, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIT's sponsor Mapletree Investments, holds the other 60 per cent stake in MRDCT. Upon completion of the proposed acquisition, MIT will fully own the 14 data centres.
