Rothschild to explore options for Cinven's truck parts maker Jost - sources
FRANKFURT, Jan 8 (Reuters) - Buyout group Cinven has mandated Rothschild to explore options including a sale or stock market listing of its German truck and trailer parts maker Jost Group, two people familiar with the deal said.
Any divestment would prove a positive turn for Cinven, which acquired Jost just weeks before the Lehman insolvency in 2008 and which had to agree to a restructuring of Jost's finances in 2010 to avoid a looming insolvency.
The process is still at an early stage and may only officially launch in several weeks or months time, the sources said.
Rothschild and Cinven declined to comment.
