BERLIN, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Fresenius Chief
Executive Michael Sen is preparing a deconsolidation of
Fresenius and its subsidiary Fresenius Medical Care (FMC) , business magazine WirtschaftsWoche reported on
Thursday, citing sources close to the Fresenius supervisory
board.
Sen's goal is for Fresenius to relinquish control over FMC
and no longer have to fully consolidate the dialysis company,
WirtschaftsWoche added.
Sen is negotiating the plan with the major shareholder
Else-Kroener-Fresenius-Stiftung, which controls Fresenius,
WirtschaftsWoche reported, adding that a spokesperson declined
to comment.
Dialysis specialist FMC's chief executive stepped down in
December, marking the second leadership change in as many months
as parent Fresenius pushes for a faster overhaul of the
struggling unit.
