Kenya: PricewaterhouseCoopers has rejected Rai Group’s bank guarantee of US$12.5m as part of its US$62.6m bid for ownership of ARM Cement. The bid constituted an attempt to forestall the latter’s sale to Devki Group subsidiary National Cement, which remains under the scrutiny of the courts. Business Daily has reported that Rai Group’s offer failed due to an insufficient expiry period of nine months on the guarantee, exposing the seller to untenable risk.
