OLX merger: How Bangladesh will be affected
Southeast Asia’s ecommerce scene was rocked yesterday when Naspers, Schibsted Media Group, Telenor Group, and Singapore Press holdings (SPH) put an end to their rivalry, and decided to join forces instead. There are four Asian countries affected by this change: Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Bangladesh.
Brad Porteus, OLX CEO of Southeast Asia, explains to Tech in Asia how OLX’s operations will change in those four countries. These changes will start to happen after they receive approval from the European Commission and complete the transaction, which the team hopes to finalize by January 2015. Until then, business are run as usual for all parties.
