China’s sovereign wealth fund has signed a highlyrestrictive agreement which seems designed to ensure that it isseen as a harmless financial investor in resource-rich Canada.Good news for Teck, perhaps, in that the deal spares the boardfrom having to go back to its own investors for funds But lessso for CIC.

For starters, CIC gets no representation on Teck’s boarddespite buying an economic interest of 17 per cent in thecompany. The shares it is buying are vote-restricted B shares.Moreover, CIC has agreed to a minimum hold period of 12 months,which is three times as long as a standard private placement.This restriction means CIC cannot sell the shares or threatento dump Teck stock even if the price slumps. The deal also restricts CIC’s ability to sell its holdingsto any mining or metals company, or to a material customer ofTeck — most of them are naturally located in China So it canonly exit by placing the stock. What’s more it is hard to argue that CIC even got ascreamingly good deal. It bought the shares at a mere sevenpercent discount to the market price. And that despite the factthat CIC was in effect throwing a lifeline to Teck, which hadrun up excessive debts after purchasing Fording Coal last year. Moreover, thanks to the lengthy negotiations that attendedthe deal, Teck’s price has sharply recovered.
