Potash Door Opens to Selling Equity Stakes for Deal Funding

Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. said it may sell some assets, including equity stakes in associated fertilizer makers such as Israel Chemicals Ltd., as it seeks to grow through acquisitions.

“There is a possibility we would do that, specifically on equity investments, so I would not exclude that,” Potash Corp. Chief Executive Officer Jochen Tilk said Thursday, referring to stake sales in response to a question on a conference call.
