Temasek has previously acquired 12,699,981 ordinary shares of the Company through market purchases which, together with the shares to be acquired in the Transaction, will represent a 10% stake in the Company's ordinary share capital outstanding after conclusion of the Transaction. Ermenegildo 'Gildo' Zegna, Chairman and CEO of the Ermenegildo Zegna Group , commented: 'I am delighted to welcome Temasek as a strategic investor in our Group's shareholder base. Their investment is a strong endorsement of our vision and long-term growth potential, while firmly recognizing the global significance of the Italian luxury sector.

Trump Imposes 25%+ Tariff On India From August 1: How It Compares Globally, What It Means For Trade
The tariffs, announced by US President Donald Trump, makes India one of the most heavily targeted among Asian trading partners. US Tariff On India: India is set to face 25% tariffs on US exports, plus a penalty, starting August 1, 2025. Though the India tariffs are lower than Brazil, Bangladesh, Canada, South Africa, Mexico and most Southeast Asian countries like Thailand and Cambodia; they is higher than the import duties imposed countries like South Korea, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Japan, and the EU. 'Remember, while India is our friend, we have, over the years, done relatively little business with them because their Tariffs are far too high… INDIA WILL THEREFORE BE PAYING A TARIFF OF 25%, PLUS A PENALTY FOR THE ABOVE, STARTING ON AUGUST FIRST," US President Donald Trump said in a post on Truth Social, also citing concerns from non-tariff restrictions, and strategic ties with Russia as reasons for the decision. The move, announced by US President Donald Trump on Wednesday, to impose both the base tariff and a penalty on India makes the country one of the most heavily targeted among Asian trading partners. An updated analysis of US tariffs shows that India will now face a higher duty rate than major Asian peers like Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, and even the European Union. Among 27 countries tracked, Brazil (50%), Laos and Myanmar (40%), and a few others face tariffs equal to or higher than India. With the additional penalty added to the 25% base rate, India's effective tariff could rise above countries like South Korea and Malaysia, both of which face a flat 25% duty. US Tariffs: Likely Impact On India-US Trade? India's trade with the United States is poised to face significant headwinds starting August 1, with the US imposing a 25 percent tariff plus penalty on Indian goods, which will have a significant bearing on high-growth sectors such as chemicals, machinery, and electronics. According to UN COMTRADE data, India's trade with the US nearly doubled over the last decade, rising from $64.6 billion in 2013 to $118.4 billion in 2024. Exports have led the charge, climbing 89.3 per cent, from $42 billion in 2013 to $79.4 billion in 2024, while imports have grown more moderately. According to a Moneycontrol analysis, the tariff hike will have major consequences for high-growth sectors such as chemicals, machinery, and electronics, which have seen significant export gains in the past decade. Machinery and electronics accounted for nearly 25% of India's exports to the US in 2024, up from under 8% in 2013. Chemical exports have also surged as India diversified into high-value goods. Traditional sectors like textiles, clothing, and stone products have declined in export share. Imports from the US have also evolved: Fuels made up 31.5% of India's US imports in 2024 (up from 7% in 2013). Metal imports rose from 4.8% to 7.1% over the same period. Trade and Strategic Ties? Despite the tariff escalation, India-US economic ties have deepened substantially in recent years: Bilateral trade rose from $64.6 billion in 2013 to $118.4 billion in 2024, with exports driving much of the growth. US FDI into India surged from $20.3 billion in FY17 to $70.7 billion in FY25. The US now accounts for 13% of India's arms imports, up from 8% fifteen years ago, reflecting stronger defence cooperation. The tariff decision comes just a week after India signed a free trade agreement with the UK, and could disrupt India's efforts to expand global trade partnerships amid growing protectionism in major markets.
