Malaysian tycoon fails to take Hong Leong Capital private

KUALA LUMPUR — Malaysia’s Hong Leong Financial Group, controlled by the country’s sixth richest man Quek Leng Chan, has failed to take its 79 per-cent-owned investment banking arm Hong Leong Capital Bhd private as shareholders hold out for a better offer.

Hong Leong Financial told the stock exchange late yesterday that it acquired only a 2.24 per cent stake, or 5.5 million shares, during the offer period, bringing its total ownership in the investment bank to just 81.3 percent.
