A revival of the joint venture with Saudi Basic Industries Corp. (SABIC) is ‘off the table’, Reuters reported, citing Clariant chief financial officer Patrick Jany.
SABIC, which owns a 25 per cent stake in Clariant, has already said it has no interest in taking it over after the Swiss company shelved a joint venture plan with it in July.
The Saudi petchems major has no intention of selling its Clariant stake, but has assessed it as it does all its investments, its Chief Executive Yousef Al-Benyan said earlier after it recorded a $400 million impairment loss on the stake.
In Zurich, Jany said that Clariant is now planning to sell major portions of the business it had originally hoped to combine with SABIC’s operations.
