KKR & Co Inc (NYSE:KKR) disclosed a deal to acquire a majority stake in PangeaCo and the existing fiber optic networks of Telefonica del Peru SAA (OTC:CPNBF) and Entel Perú.

As per the deal, KKR will buy a stake in PangeaCo, which will subsequently acquire the existing fiber optic networks of Telefónica del Perú and Entel Perú. 

KKR is making the investment through its KKR Global Infrastructure Investors III fund. The financial terms were not disclosed.

The deal will combine the existing fiber optic networks of PangeaCo, Telefónica del Perú, and Entel Perú into an independent company controlled by KKR. 

Through the combination of these networks, KKR will establish ON*NET Fibra de Perú as the new name for the platform, which will independently build and operate the largest fiber optic network with world-class quality standards.
