Schiffbauer: Investorensuche: Steigt die Schweizer MSC bei der Meyer Werft ein?

Frankfurt - The name of Meyer Werft has not fallen silent, as Swiss shipping company MSC is reportedly engaging in talks to potentially join the specialist in cruise ships. Bloomberg agency and the "Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung" (HAZ) have reportedly confirmed these discussions. However, neither the Meyer Werft nor MSC have officially confirmed the talks.

According to information from the Handelsblatt, these talks could see MSC take over the 80 percent of the shares in the Papenburg shipyard that is currently owned by the State of Lower Saxony and the federal government. The family still holds 20 percent of the company. The negotiations are said to be in an early stage and several questions still need to be answered.
