TOKYO (Reuters) -- U.S. private equity firm KKR will raise its offer price for Japanese IT company Fuji Soft by more than 4% to take it above a rival offer from Bain Capital, it said on Tuesday.
It is the latest salvo in a protracted bidding war that began in August, with KKR and Bain competing to buy Fuji Soft in tender offer bids worth as much as $2 billion.
