Lawrence Stroll, part-owner of the team, expressed his enthusiasm about the sale, stating, “I am proud to reaffirm my unwavering support and commitment to Aston Martin.” Since 2020, Stroll’s Yew Tree Consortium partners and he have invested approximately £600m into the company. This proposed investment further underscores his belief in this iconic brand and his determination to provide a robust platform for long-term value creation while minimizing equity dilution via this premium subscription.
