Star Entertainment Group is close to selling its stake in the Queen’s Wharf precinct to Hong Kong-based investors in a deal that could secure $50 million for the company as it attempts to stave off collapse.
The embattled casino operator has desperately sought more cash as it was
forced into a trading halt earlier this week after failing to publish its half-year financial results by the Friday deadline.
Media reports arose on Thursday that Star is close to securing a deal where it will sell off its stake in the Brisbane property to Far East Consortium and Chow Tai Fook – which each own 25 per cent stakes in the precinct.
