Southeast Asian ride hailing giant Grab is reportedly mulling a public offering in the US.
Singapore based Grab hopes to raise about $2 billion after merger talks with main rival Go-Jek broke down recently.
Reuters reports that Grab wants to take advantage of the healthy US IPO market.
If it happens, it would be the largest overseas listing for a Southeast Asian company.
It comes as fin-tech division Grab Financial Group raised $300 million in a Series A funding.
"The market is good and the business is doing better. This should work well for public markets," a source told Reuters.
However, no plans have been finalised yet.
The company has a valuation of about $16 billion and saw total group net revenue jump by about 70% year on year in 2020.
Its ride-hailing business is profitable and expects the food delivery business to break even by the end of this year.
