Good evening,

There's movement at the Bega Cheese station, as it prepares to battle for the Lion Dairy & Drinks portfolio.

It's understood Bega has sent a request for proposal to bulk up its advisory team, and is doing everything in its power to get a first and hassle-free look at the up-for-sale milk, flavoured milk and yoghurt portfolio.

Bega's pitch is simple: want a quick exit, we're here, ready and waiting.

Elsewhere, we take a look at which investment banks were drafted in for the year's biggest real estate sector initial public offering, and show how Uniti Group has killed two birds with one stone at OptiComm.

Happy reading,
Sarah Thompson, Anthony Macdonald and Tim Boyd
