Estimated to be about S$959.4 million, the deal between Fortis Healthcare and TPG Capital will enable the Indian firm to be Parkway's major shareholder.

In line with the acquisition, Fortis intends to nominate Malvinder Mohan Singh as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Parkway as well as seek 4 seats on the board of directors.

Fortis Healthcare Chairman Mr. Malvinder Mohan Singh said, "Singapore is renowned as the international medical hub for high quality healthcare services, with access to a ready pool of experienced nursing staff, specialist medical practitioners and the latest medical technologies and treatments."
