According to the filing, a US-based fund house will also buy $120m of equity shares in the bank. Yes bank will reveal the name of the house early next week.

“None of the investors will be allotted equity shares such that their holding exceeds 25% of the share capital of the bank,” the filing added.

Yes Bank board is scheduled to meet next week to finalise the preferential allotment. Subsequently, the arrangement will be subject to shareholders’ and regulatory approvals.
