Russian aluminum giant RusAl, owner of a 25 percent stake in Russia's largest nickel maker Norilsk Nickel, is holding consultations with investors to set up a pool to buy a stake of another core Norilsk shareholder, Interros investment firm, a source close to RusAl told RIA Novosti on Wednesday.
"One of most likely scenarios to solve the Norilsk Nickel problem can be a sale of Interros' stake. This is why RusAl is holding consultations with a number of investors interested in buying Interros' stake, to create a pool ready to buy Interros' share," the source said.
RusAl and Interros have been locked in a shareholder conflict for months over boardroom representation and management control of Norilsk Nickel.
