RWE's role in Uniper deal would be 'narrow in scope', CFO says
RWE's role in Uniper deal would be 'narrow in scope', CFO says FRANKFURT, Nov 11 (Reuters) - Any involvement of RWE in an acquisition of German peer Uniper would only happen under "very specific circumstances" and be "narrow in scope" due to antitrust hurdles, the company's finance chief Michael Mueller said on Wednesday.
RWE has submitted an indicative bid for state-owned Uniper - which is currently being sold by Berlin - in a consortium with KKR KKR.N, people familiar with the matter have previously said.
