HONG KONG (Reuters) - Anheuser-Busch InBev has enlisted Citigroup and Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAML) to the team of banks working on the sale of its Asia-Pacific business, three people with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters. They join Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan, both of which are the sponsors, or leads, for the planned Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO) which could raise up to $5 billion for the heavily indebted Belgium-based brewer, the sources said. The world’s biggest brewer, whose brands include Budweiser, Corona and Stella Artois, said it had always looked at opportunities to optimize its business.

Over the past two years, its shares have fallen 24 percent, in contrast to rivals Heineken and Carlsberg, which have gained 15 and 28 percent respectively.

The IPO would not be the first time AB InBev has sold Asia-Pacific assets to reduce debt, After InBev bought Anheuser-Busch in 2008, AB InBev sold South Korean unit Oriental Brewery to private equity firm KKR - only to buy it back in 2014, The IPO is slated for the second half of the year and the brewer expects to file with the Hong Kong stock exchange in the first floating mother of pearl striped cufflinks half, the people said, One of the people said the filing would happen either later this month or early May, At $5 billion, the IPO could be the largest in Hong Kong this year, where the flood of companies looking to go public has slowed to a trickle..
