Knighthead Capital Management and Certares Management valued Hertz Global at $6.2bn, raising their bid to fund the US car rental firm’s exit from bankruptcy. The investment firms Knighthead and Certares have offered to take control of Hertz, with existing shareholders Apollo Global Management Inc. backing the proposal and agreeing to supply up to $2.5bn in preferred equity financing.
