2:28Now PlayingThe private equity firm that had been the frontrunner to lead a rescue of the UK's largest water provider, Thames Water, has pulled out.
Thames Water Utilities, which is staring down the prospect of a special administration process without fresh investment, said an alternative plan was now under discussion after KKR's exit from the process.
KKR has not given a reason for pulling out, but its withdrawal was announced a week after Thames was handed a record fine by the industry regulator for failures related to its wastewater operations and dividend payouts.
