    UK EasyJet Reaches Preliminary 5.5 Billion Pound Privatization Agreement with US Investor, Market Cautious About Compliance and Implementation Prospects

    英国知名廉价航空巨头易捷航空（easyJet）6日发布声明证实，公司董事会已与美国私募股权投资公司Castlelake达成初步共识，原则上接受后者提出的每股690便士、总额约55亿英镑（约合73.4亿美元）的现金收购报价。这标志着在历经五轮艰苦谈判后，这家欧洲核心廉价航空公司的私有化进程取得突破性进展，但受制于欧盟严格的航空业跨境准入法规及潜在的股权竞争，资本市场对该笔交易的最终落地仍存有疑虑。（新浪财经）
