Maersk Exploring All Options as Report Points to 2-Way Split

A.P. Moeller-Maersk A/S said it’s still considering several options in its strategic review after a local newspaper reported that the Danish conglomerate was exploring a two-way split into an energy and a transport company.

“As our chairman previously has said, we want to evaluate all options,” Louise Muenter, head of media and stakeholder relations at Maersk in Copenhagen, said in an e-mailed response to questions on Friday. “The structure of the group is one of many options being evaluated, but it is important to point out that it is one of many possibilities, as structure alone doesn’t ensure growth.”
