Recall takeover gets final regulatory nod

Data management group Recall's takeover by US logistics giant Iron Mountain has been cleared by Australia's foreign investment review board.

Australia's foreign investment review board has approved the $3.4 billion takeover of data management group Recall by US logistics giant Iron Mountain, completing the final regulatory nod for the deal in the country.

The competition watchdog last month waved through the deal after Iron Mountain agreed to sell most of its Australian business.

Recall shareholders will vote on the proposal on Tuesday, while court approval will be sought at a hearing on Thursday, Recall said.

Recall shares will be removed from the Australian stock exchange this week after final court approval is granted for the deal.
