BARELY five months at the helm of FGV, Emir has meticulously expedited several major mergers and acquisitions (M&As) for the company. And judging by the speed of the recent M&As concluded and the proceeds from FGV’s initial public offering (IPO), Emir is set to prove his mettle again by another round of new M&As next year while improving the productivity and efficiency within the group.
FGV’s main theme next year is to zoom in on acquisitions of greenfield and brownfield landbanks as well as mills and refinery for oil palm, sugar and rubber in Indonesia, Cambodia and Myanmar for the group’s expansion.
