AMSTERDAM, Nov 5 (Reuters) - A group of Dutch language
financial information websites, including the popular IEX.nl
website, will be folded into a public company with a stock
market listing, its owners said on Thursday.
The media group, currently known as Belix BV, reaches 1.8
million mostly retail investors daily in the Netherlands and
Belgium, owners Value8 VALU8.AS and Free Media Group Holding
BV said in a statement.
In the deal, Belix will be acquired by a shell company, MTY
Holdings NV MTY.AS , which will be renamed IEX Group after the
transaction is completed on Dec. 16.
The owners said the Belix businesses are profitable and as
IEX Group they intend to "offer supplemental products and
services."
