ATHENS, April 7 (Reuters) - Greece's privatisation agency 
(HRADF) asked on Friday for improved financial bids from 
shortlisted investors seeking to buy a majority stake in its 
second-largest port. 
    Athens got last month three offers for the sale of a 67 
percent stake in Thessaloniki Port  OLTr.AT , which is required 
as part of its international bailout. 
    The investors are Philippines-based International Container 
Terminal Services (ICTS), Dubai-based P&O Steam Navigation 
Company (DP World) and German private equity firm Deutsche 
Invest Equity Partners which is bidding jointly with France's 
Terminal Link SAS.
