Bloomberg reported that Elliott Investment Management and private equity firm GTCR are engaged in talks with CCC to acquire it, with possible deal announcements expected this week. The article notes that while no agreement has been finalized, multiple bidders have shown interest in the software solutions provider focused on auto insurance services.
