Analysis · VOD · Technology
Vodafone's German fibre joint venture OXG gains a new 50% shareholder as Societe Generale agrees to buy Geodesia Holding's stake. The deal secures a committed funding partner for continued fibre network expansion in Germany while preserving Vodafone's strategic flexibility. This matters because it de-risks OXG's capital structure and signals institutional confidence in German fibre infrastructure, though the transaction still requires regulatory approval.
