“RWE prepares for attack again”

Handelsblatt

German utility RWE has regained a great deal of its former assertiveness since the successful stock market launch of its green subsidiary innogy in early October, writes Jürgen Flauger in Handelsblatt. “RWE already is a healthy company,” RWE’s new CEO Rolf Martin Schmitz told Handelsblatt. RWE has even found “wiggle room for growth” after years of austerity thanks to its majority share in innogy, which bundles the renewables business, Flauger writes.
