British private equity firm CVC Capital Partners said on Wednesday it has pulled out of takeover talks with Dutch financial services company Intertrust.
CVC had launched a 18 euro bid per share for Intertrust on Nov. 11 which valued the firm at 1.63 billion euro ($1.83 billion).
But Intertrust, which offers administrative services as companies set up branches, entities and shell companies in various jurisdictions, said on Nov. 22 it had received multiple non-binding takeover offers of up to 22 euros per share, without naming CVC’s rivals.
