O Insurgente: O ataque dos gafanhotos

A CONSORTIUM of venture capital firms is preparing a €14 billion (£9.6 billion) bid for Portugal’s biggest phone group in a further private equity assault on the telecoms market, The Times has learnt.
It is understood that six houses — Cinven, Permira, Providence, Blackstone, Texas Pacific and KKR — are close to tabling an offer for Portugal Telecom that could be just weeks away.(...)
The private equity consortium is expected to bid substantially higher than Sonae’s offer of €9.50 a share to have any chance of success.(...)
Any offer for Portugal Telecom could face a government veto. Although it has sold out of the group the Government retains a golden share, giving it a say in any foreign sale.
