On Tuesday, KKR & Co Inc. (NYSE:KKR) shares edged slightly higher after revealing strategic investments in two companies. The New York-based asset manager announced the minority ownership of the supply chain software business from Korber. It also teamed up with Synergy to acquire Two Drydock from Swedish construction and development company, Skanska.
KKR will work with Korber’s supply chain business to boost its organic and inorganic growth strategies, thereby expanding its footprint whilst accelerating the transition to SaaS. On the other hand, KKR is investing in Two Drydock through its real Estate Fund, which has grown to over $36 billion across the U.S., Europe, and Asia as of Sept. 30, 2021.
Details of the two deals were not disclosed.
