Ingram Micro

Ingram Micro began as a small electronics goods reseller in 1979. After then, it was able to grow into a multibillion-dollar corporation! It was able to take over Softinvest, a Belgian business, in the early 1990s. Ingram was able to distribute HP products as a result of this transaction, giving them a stronger footing in the market. Tianjin Tianhai Investment, a Chinese firm under the HNA Group, purchased Ingram for $6 billion in 2016. As a result, it became one of the parent company’s top earners across the board. On the other side, Ingram gained a stronger international presence as a result of this.

Fidelity & Guaranty Life

Fidelity and Guaranty Life Insurance Company has helped millions of people safeguard their future since its founding in 1959 in Des Moines, Illinois. That being said, its own future had not been entirely certain. It was previously owned by Harbinger Group, but the parent firm released it to the public in 2013. It piqued the interest of Anbang Insurance Group, which purchased F&G for $1.57 billion. Everything appeared to be going well until the Chinese business abruptly canceled the contract at the last minute. CF Corp purchased F&G for roughly $1.84 billion in 2017 after a sudden change of plans.
