Hyundai Oilbank IPO still on course after stake sale

The owner of South Korea’s fourth-largest oil refinery will still pursue the highly anticipated initial public offering of its business after selling a 17% stake to Saudi Arabia’s state oil company.

Saudi Aramco, Saudi Arabia’s state-owned oil company, has struck a deal to buy a minority stake in South Korea’s Hyundai Oilbank for W1.37 trillion ($1.2 billion) as the world’s third-largest oil producing country looks to gain a stronger foothold of its downstream business in Asia.
