    Accor CEO Weighs Ennismore IPO and Funding for U.S. Growth

    Accor CEO Sébastien Bazin said at Skift Global Forum in New York that Ennismore, its luxury-lifestyle joint venture, needs capital to grow in the U.S. and beyond, but the companies have not decided how to fund it. He called a listing a "very complex decision" with many drawbacks, and said another possibility is that Accor could put more money into it. Accor had given itself until the end of this month to announce a decision on its 62% stake in the joint venture, with analysts valuing Ennismore at $3.4 billion to $5.8 billion in a potential IPO.

    Accor Bets on Asia With Market-Specific Expansion Strategies

    Accor is not pursuing a single Asia strategy but several market-specific expansion models. In China, the hotel giant is leaning on H World to help double its footprint to 1,600 hotels. In India, it is looking for new partners. In Vietnam, major developers are driving an unexpected surge in signings. Across the region, conversions and franchising are increasingly helping Accor tap into existing hotel supply. Duncan O'Rourke, Accor's CEO for Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific, said China, India and Vietnam are very big for the company, but the development models to capture those opportunities are markedly different.
