    Blackstone wins AirTrunk auction with a price tag close to $23.5b

    The year’s hottest auction is finally over. AirTrunk’s owners have anointed the $US1 trillion-plus private capital juggernaut Blackstone as the winning bidder.

    After consuming the lives of countless lawyers, bankers, tax accountants and even regulators for nearly 12 months, Street Talk can reveal AirTrunk founder Robin Khuda, Macquarie Asset Management and PSP Investments signed the final deal documents with Blackstone’s dealmakers at law firm Baker McKenzie’s offices in Sydney’s Barangaroo. Of note, the winner had not been picked until early Tuesday afternoon.
