The buyer of the land is a special purpose company formed to facilitate the securitization process. FGI will be entrusted by the company to handle private placement activities and intends to take an equity stake of no more than 5% to put into a silent partnership. In addition, FinTech Asset Management, an FGI subsidiary, plans to sign an arrangement transaction contract with the company for management of the real estate.
