Dubai’s DWTC, Informa Said to Eye Listing Joint Events Business

Dubai World Trade Centre and the UK’s Informa Group are exploring a listing of a joint events business that’s expected to combine some of the emirate’s most prominent exhibitions and conferences.

Rothschild & Co. is acting as financial adviser on the potential initial public offering in Dubai, according to people familiar with the matter. The business could be listed as soon as this year, the people said, declining to be identified because the discussions are confidential.
