Qatar Holding has signed an agreement with Spanish infrastructure firm Ferrovial to spend $1.4bn on a 20% stake in BAA, which operates London's Heathrow and Stansted airports, Scotland's Glasgow and Aberdeen airports, as well as Southampton airport in southern England.

Ferrvial needs the money as its I'm debt and Qatar needs somewhere to stick its surplus cash. Sounds like a good deal for both parties.
