Link Administration Holdings said on Thursday it would give U.S. software firm SS&C Technologies Holdings Inc access to due diligence to better its A$3.02 billion ($2.25 billion) offer to buy the shareholder registry firm.
Link, which is also fielding an offer from private equity firms Carlyle Group and Pacific Equity Partners, said SS&C Technologies' A$5.65 per share offer was not compelling enough.
