Bund Initiates Resale Process for Nationalized Uniper
Bund Initiates Resale Process for Nationalized Uniper
The German government is exploring options for the resale of Uniper, including a potential public offering, following its nationalization amid the energy crisis.
According to a notice published in the Financial Times, the German government is considering various strategies for divesting its stake in Uniper, the largest gas importer in Germany, which faced significant financial difficulties after Russia halted gas supplies in 2022. Reports from Süddeutsche Zeitung indicate that the government is open to selling one or more equity packages to investors, with interested parties invited to express their interest to the Finance Ministry by June 12. However, the government aims to retain Uniper as a whole, avoiding any fragmentation of the company.
