Aston Martin boss eyes MBO
The chief executive of Aston Martin could be about to launch a management buy-out of the luxury car brand.
Reports suggest that Ulrich Bez is preparing to lead a consortium after Ford put the company up for sale last week.
But industry speculation suggests that Bez may face a challenge from former Ford chief executive Jac Nasser.
He now fronts a private equity group in the US and may be interested in acquiring the Warwickshire-based carmaker.
