CBE signs off on Vodafone upping its stake in Basata<\/strong>: <\/strong>Vodafone Egypt has receivedapproval from the Central Bank of Egypt to raise its stake<\/a> in fintech platform Basata Holding for Financial Investments<\/a> subsidiaries Bee and Masary \u2014 which constitute its epayment arm \u2014 to 20%, up from 10%, according to an EGX disclosure (pdf)<\/a>. No information was given about the value of the transaction.<\/p>\n

Vodafone increases its presence in the local fintech scene: <\/strong>Basata \u2014 originally known as Ebtikar \u2014 was established<\/a> as a JV between B Investments, BPE Partners, and MM Group for Industry and International Trade in 2017. Basata\u2019s e-payment arm<\/a> provides point-of-sale (POS) machines to merchants, has its own app \u2014 dubbed Basata Pay \u2014 for consumers to pay bills and make other transactions remotely.<\/p>\n

Remember: <\/strong>Vodafone Egypt acquired its existing 10% stake in both of the Basata subsidiaries in April 2022, following an MoU in 2021<\/a> that established its intent to eventually acquire 20% of the subsidiaries.<\/p>\n

The ownership breakdown:<\/strong> Upon completion of the transaction, Basata will own a direct andindirect 80% stake in Bee and 63.5% stake in Masary, the disclosure said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
