Fresenius exits hospital market in Peru

Fresenius sells its 70 percent stake in IDCQ CRP, a co-holding entity of the hospital Clínica Ricardo Palma in Lima, Peru. The stake is acquired by entities of the Verme family which already hold a stake in the hospital, together with other local investors. 

This exit from the hospital market in Peru is a further step to strengthening #FutureFresenius and is in line with the company's intention to divest certain assets announced earlier this year. Subject to antitrust review, the all-cash transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2024.
