CVC Capital Partners and its interest in Telecom Italia
According to sources reported by Bloomberg, CVC Capital Partners is currently considering buying Vivendi‘s stake in Telecom Italia. This development could represent a significant step towards a possible takeover of the main Italian telecommunications company. The private equity firm has started preliminary talks with Vivendi to acquire its 24% in the capital of Telecom Italia, a move that could radically change the landscape of the
sector.
Evaluation and impact on the market
Currently, Vivendi’s share is valued at around 950 million euros, according to Bloomberg data. If the deal were to go through, CVC would become Telecom Italia’s largest shareholder, paving the way for further strategic maneuvers, such as a total takeover and the possibility of spin-off the company. Telecom Italia shares fell 12% this year, bringing the company’s market value to around 5.8 billion euros. This market environment could make the acquisition even more attractive for
CVC.
Possible future developments
The discussions between CVC and Vivendi are still at an early stage, and there is no certainty that these will lead to a definitive agreement. However, Vivendi’s participation in Telecom Italia could attract the interest of other potential buyers, making the situation even more competitive. Meanwhile, the Telecom Italia stock has shown signs of recovery, with an increase of 5% at Piazza Affari, suggesting that investors are closely monitoring the developments of this negotiation

Investors are waiting for economic data and quarterly reports from leading companies such as FedEx and Nike. These factors could have a significant impact on the market dynamics and strategic choices of investors such as CVC
