LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Helios Towers said on Monday that it plans to participate in a secondary share placing by Helios Investment Partners Fund II, after the latter said it was looking to sell its entire shareholding in the telecoms firm.
Helios Investment Partners Fund II said it plans to sell a stake of around 3.9%, which represents about 41m shares in the company, through a placing of ordinary shares to institutional investors.

The price per placing share will be determined through an accelerated bookbuilding process.
