HBFCL privatization: PC signs FASA with KPMG-led consortium

The Privatization Commission has entered into a Financial Advisory Services Agreement (FASA) with a consortium led by KPMG, according to a statement released on Sunday. The consortium comprises seasoned professionals specializing in financial advisory, transaction structuring, and execution. Their role is to assist the Privatization Commission in advancing the privatization process for House Building Finance Company Limited (HBFCL), as highlighted in the press release by the Privatization Commission.

This marks the second attempt to privatize HBFCL, indicating a renewed commitment from the Privatization Commission. The previous attempt only identified a single qualified bidder, Pakistan Mortgage Refinance Company Limited (PMRCL), but the bid was ultimately rejected due to being below the reference price set by the federal cabinet.
