With reference to your recent post, if ANS raise fund to buy a tenement or a non-listed company, it does make sense. It also make sense if a Chinese investor from China wants to invest in the tenement through ANS since they can not directly acquire the tenement without going through a long legal process etc. Those Chinese investors need a ready vehicle to acquire the tenement. On the other hand, SDL is a publicly listed company that Chinese investors can directly buy the SDL shares anytime. Why should they buy SDL through ANS?
To acquire SDL? it is unlikely except to buy additional shares in SDL as an investment due to its future bright prospect.
