据外媒报道,巴塞罗那MWC24展会期间一种流传的说法是,诺基亚正在与至少一家私募股权公司洽谈剥离其4个业务部门的1或多个业务部门(The rumor doing the rounds at last week’s MWC show in Barcelona is that the company is talking to at least one PE firm to divest one or more of its four business units.)。(背景:去年10月,诺基亚将其业务重组为4个独立的业务部门,均有运营自主权,均有专门的销售团队。)
上述重大重组,外媒称一种解释是,业内怀疑论者们指出,如果诺基亚的命运继续衰退,细分业务也可能会让诺基亚更容易被拆分和分拆出售(Industry skeptics have pointed out that subdividing the business might also make Nokia easier to break up and sell in pieces if its fortunes continue to wane)。
