WestLB, the stricken German lender, could be broken up as a result of European Union demands for a restructure to avoid it being wound down. WestLB, among Germany’s top 10 banks by assets, was bailed out twice during the financial crisis of 2008-10 and European competition authorities have ordered its owners to present a binding restructuring plan by 15 February 2011. Germany’s government, which helped WestLB with €3bn of capital during the crisis, is adamant it will not give more aid. |
