SBB Cargo to go it alone
The Swiss federal railway SBB spun off its railfreight division from the group and began managing it as an independent group company at the beginning of 2019.
As an independent entity, SBB Cargo will be able to implement the previously announced financial minority interest more easily. In addition, it will enable SBB Cargo and its minority stakeholders to play a greater role in shaping railfreight’s future. SBB Cargo will gradually separate from the SBB Group over the current year.
The market approach for a partnership with SBB Cargo has attracted interested parties from home and abroad. The railway said it will make its decisions over the course of the year. (ben)
