Abu Dhabi – Mubasher: Abu Dhabi-headquartered Mubadala Investment Co. has hired Bank of America and Morgan Stanley as advisors for a potential initial public offering (IPO) of Al Yah Satellite Communications Company (Yahsat), Bloomberg reported on Sunday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The satellite operator, owned by the $232 billion state-controlled wealth fund, is expected to be listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX), according to the sources.
