M&A Rumour and Activity
The Australian market finished the week 2.23% lower with the S&P / ASX100 ending at 4358 points in a week of interest rate speculation, as
unusually weak inflation numbers increased the odds that the Reserve Bank of Australia will cut rates by the end of the year while the US Federal
Reserve has signaled that it may raise rates in December 2015. The Australian dollar decreased 1.11% for the week to end at US71.34 cents, as the
US Dollar strengthened following increased speculation that the US Federal Reserve will raise interest rates by the end of the year.
Infigen Energy (ASX:IFN) has completed the sale of its US wind energy business to a portfolio company affiliated with ArcLight Capital Partners for
US$274.4 million. Following the sale, IFN is now a solely Australia-focused renewable energy company, while ArcLight Capital Partners will leverage
on the Infigen assets as a platform for further renewable energy acquisitions.

company to invest in the rapidly-growing renewable energy industry, diversify revenue to lower risks and drive long-term growth. WEH is expected
to launch an IPO in the first quarter of 2016.
