    Feb 20 (Reuters) - The following bids, mergers, acquisitions and disposals were reported by 1430 GMT on Tuesday:

    		** Truist Financial  TFC.N  agreed to sell the remaining 
    stake in its insurance brokerage business to an investor group, 
    

    in a deal valued at $15.5 billion, as it focuses on its core banking business, at a time when regulators are proposing new capital rules for the sector.

    		** Capital One Financial's  COF.N  $35.3 billion deal 
    for credit card issuer Discover Financial  DFS.N  could take a 
    

    big slice out of the payments processing market dominated by Visa V.N and Mastercard MA.N , analysts said.

    		** Fremantle, RTL Group's global film and television 
    content production business, said it had agreed to buy 
    

    Paris-based Asacha Media Group from Oaktree Capital as part of a wider 200 million euro ($216 million) investment package.

    		** S&P Global  SPGI.N  said it had agreed to buy 
    consensus provider Visible Alpha for an undisclosed sum, the 
    

    business intelligence company's latest deal to expand into a data powerhouse.

    		** Whirlpool  WHR.N  said it has executed a sale of 24% 
    of its stake in its India unit for about $468 million. 
    

    		** India's Zee Entertainment is making a final attempt 
    to restart discussions with Japan's Sony Group  6758.T  to 
    

    revive their $10 billion merger deal that was scrapped on Jan. 22, Indian business daily Economic Times reported, citing people aware of the matter.

    ** ANZ Group's (ANZ) A$4.9 billion ($3.2 billion) buyout of Suncorp's (SUN) banking business was cleared by the Australian Competition Tribunal, paving the way for the bank to press on with the takeover of its significant rival.

    ** Japanese camping goods company Snow Peak 7816.T said a group led by Bain Capital will launch a tender offer for its shares at 1,250 yen ($8.31) apiece in a management buyout that values the company at 47 billion yen ($313 million).

    ** Russian President Vladimir Putin gave approval on Monday for HSBC HSBA.L to sell its Russian unit to privately-owned Expobank, paving the way for the British lender to extricate itself from the Russian market after months of negotiations.

    ** Currys CURY.L shares soared on Monday after Chinese online retailer JD.com 9618.HK joined U.S. activist investor Elliott Advisors in a battle to buy the British electricals group, which has already rejected Elliott's opening bid of $880 million.

    ** Australian diversified investor Seven Group Holdings (SVW) has offered A$1.9 billion ($1.24 billion) to take full control of building products group maker Boral (BLD) in a bet Australia's infrastructure spending boom will be maintained in coming years.

    ** Shares in APM Human Services International (APM) were set for a record gain, after the company rejected private equity firm CVC Asia Pacific's A$1.47 billion ($960 million) takeover bid that did not "sufficiently reflect its fundamental value".
