The Overseas Investment Office is further satisfied that each individual that exercises control over the Applicant is of good character and is not an individual of the kind referred to in section 7(1) of the Immigration Act 1987. The CCMP Funds have undertaken high profile and complex transactions throughout the Asia Pacific in the automotive parts industry and have gained extensive experience from these activities. The CCMP AOF II Funds have access to highly experienced directors and will ensure that the Applicant is able to provide high level strategic advice and access to capital resources which CCMP Capital believes will enable Repco to successfully implement management's strategies. The Applicant's strategy for Repco is, as is typical for CCMP Capital investments, to operate the business substantially as it has been operated to date but to support management's plans for growth and operational improvements. CCMP Capital will back management teams to execute their business plans by providing a degree of autonomy with respect to the strategy and operations of the Repco Corporation, supported by access to highly experienced directors, strategic advice and access to capital resources. |
