Re: Pakistan group buying Bombay Stock Exchange?

your friend is playing a joke on you.

it was not the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), but a combined 20% stake in the NSE.

the four investors were:

1) NYSE
2) Goldman Sachs
3) General Atlantic (large american private equity firm)
4) SAIF Partners (hong kong-based VC fund)
