## Content

## In Short
- Standard Chartered acted as sole financial adviser to PT Prima Energy.
- Prima Energy acquired 28.3% of Jadestone Energy plc from Tyrus Capital.
- The deal is a cross-border M&A advisory transaction announced on September 2, 2026.

## What Happened
Standard Chartered said it advised PT Prima Energy on its acquisition of 28.3% of Jadestone Energy plc from Tyrus Capital. Standard Chartered was the sole financial adviser, meaning it was the only bank formally hired to guide the buyer on the deal.

The transaction is a cross-border M&A deal, which is a merger and acquisition process that involves companies and rules across more than one country. These deals tend to be more complex because they can include different market regulations, reporting standards, and investor expectations.

Standard Chartered said PT Prima Energy plans to support Jadestone as the company targets long-term growth and value creation for shareholders. The bank also framed the work as an example of its sector coverage in oil, gas, and chemicals investment banking and advisory.

## Why It Matters
For African founders and operators watching the [Standard Chartered Bank](/standard-chartered-bank), this is a reminder that global banks with strong African footprints still earn fees from advisory work, not only from lending and payments. Advisory mandates can also signal where capital is moving, especially in energy and natural resources.

It also shows how buyers are using minority stakes, in this case 28.3%, to gain meaningful exposure without buying full control. Minority positions can come with board influence and strategic alignment, depending on the shareholder agreement.

Finally, the announcement underscores a broader point for dealmakers in Africa. Complex transactions often rely on advisers who can manage diligence, valuation, and execution across jurisdictions, even when the assets and investors are spread globally.
