Yes, that is a good way of looking at it....McLaren is the stated-owned team of the Kingdom of Bahrain.Picci wrote: ↑3 years agoRIght, thanks for clarifying. So that means it is state owned in essence right? Meaning it has infinite sources of finance from $$$ of oil barrels producedRuslan wrote: ↑3 years agoThe majority owner of McLaren is a Bahraini company that is "The sovereign wealth fund of the government of the Kingdom of Bahrain." It is the Mumtalakat Holding Company.Picci wrote: ↑3 years ago McLaren is backed by Saudi investors though, aren't they? So the Saudis can just plug in the gap whenever they feel they sold a few barrels of oil. On the other hand, WIlliams is a listed company so there are a number of factors here. It can dilute the shareholding to raise equity or put some more bonds out. Not sure how healthy the balance sheet looks for that. Its share price has dropped by about EUR1 in the last few months or so which is hardly a big deal considering trades are being made on a company which is currently not actually generating any revenue!
