PE firms balk at high price Vivendi demands for Universal Music: Bloomberg

PE firms are balking at the high price and slow pace of Vivendi’s sale of a stake in Universal Music Group, Bloomberg said. Vivendi is seeking a minimum value of 25 billion to 30 billion euros ($28 billion to $33 billion) for a minority of Universal Music, the story said. Vivendi is now targeting strategic buyers and has held talks with Tencent Holdings, Bloomberg said.
