How founders can prepare for an IPO with Neil Shah | London Stock Exchange Group
Canal+ could list on the London Stock Exchange as part of Vivendi's investigation into the possibility of splitting its operations into three.
Since December, the France-based media giant has been investigating whether to separate Canal+, advertising company Havas and publisher Lagardère from their own stock exchange listings. Today, it released a statement saying the study “has demonstrated the feasibility of this project under satisfactory conditions.”
Under the plan, each company would keep the "decision-making center of their activities, as well as their operational teams, in France."
