    KOTRA, 코로나19 극복을 위한 외국기업창업지원연구센터 임대료 20% 감면 권평오 KOTRA 사장(사진=KOTRA) KOTRA(코트라)가 신종 코로나바이러스감염증(코로나19) 극복에 힘을 보태기 위해 외국인투자기업의 임대료를 낮춰준다. KOTRA는 ‘외국기업창업지원연구센터(IKP)’ 입주 기업을 대상으로 이달부터 세 달 간 임대료를 20% 감면키로 했다고 3일 밝혔다. IKP는 2006년 설립된 이후 약 200개 외국인투자기업의 창업지원센터 역할을 해왔다. 법인설립 초기 사무실을 제공하고 행정·상담 등 원스톱 서비스도 지원하고 있다. KOTRA는 코로나19 사태로 외국인투자기업의 경제적 어려움이 가중됨에 따라 IKP 입주기업의 부담을 덜기 위해 한시적인 감면을 시행한다. IKP에 입주한 외국인투자기업 29개사 중 소상공인·중소기업에 해당하는 19개사가 특히 혜택을 입을 것으로 기대된다. 권평오 KOTRA 사장은 “코로나19를 조기 극복하기 위해서는 전세계적으로 힘을 모을 필요가 있다”며 “외국인투자기업의 어려움을 나누기 위한 이번 조치가 꼭 도움이 되길 바란다”고 말했다.

  • [단독외신] ABB completes divestment of Power Grids to Hitachi
    [단독외신] ABB completes divestment of Power Grids to Hitachi ABB reached a significant milestone in the company’s transformation towards a decentralized global technology company, with the completion of the divestment of 80.1 percent of its Power Grids business to Hitachi, as planned. The divestment allows ABB to focus on key market trends and customer needs such as the electrification of transport and industry, automated manufacturing, digital solutions and increased sustainable productivity. “Today’s announcement marks an important turning point in the history of ABB. Since announcing our intention to divest Power Grids to Hitachi, ABB has made significant progress in becoming a more customer-focused and simplified organization. We believe Hitachi is the best owner for Power Grids and its next stage of development, building on the solid foundation achieved under ABB’s previous ownership,” said Peter Voser, Chairman of the Board of Directors of ABB. “ABB remains committed to using net cash proceeds from the transaction for a share buyback program. Our goal is to execute this in an efficient and responsible way, taking account of the prevailing circumstances.” Consistent with ABB’s capital structure optimization program, ABB plans to return to shareholders net cash proceeds of $7.6-7.8 billion from the sale of Power Grids. ABB initially intends to launch a share buyback program of 10 percent[1] of the company’s issued share capital shortly after the release of its second quarter 2020 financial results. This represents about 180 million shares, when excluding treasury shares. The share buyback program will be executed on a second trading line on the SIX Swiss Exchange and is planned to run until the company’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) on March 25, 2021. At the AGM, ABB intends to request shareholder approval to cancel the shares purchased through this program and to announce further details on its ongoing capital structure optimization program. ABB aims to maintain its “single A” credit rating. “With the divestment, ABB is well positioned for the future with a strong focus on industrial customers. Leveraging our technology leadership and passion for innovation, we will now focus on creating superior value for our customers, employees and shareholders. We will do this by evolving our decentralized business model, strengthening our performance management culture and driving active portfolio management,” said Björn Rosengren, ABB CEO. ABB is a long-term partner of Hitachi and will initially retain a 19.9 percent equity stake in the joint venture that will operate as Hitachi ABB Power Grids and be headquartered in Switzerland. The joint venture is a global leader in power systems, with annualized revenues of approximately $10 billion and roughly 36,000 employees, serving customers in over 90 countries. The Board of Directors of the joint venture includes Timo Ihamuotila, Chief Financial Officer of ABB, and Frank Duggan, former member of ABB’s Executive Committee. Hitachi ABB Power Grids will be led by Claudio Facchin as CEO. The transaction terms with Hitachi remain as announced on December 17, 2018, with an enterprise value of $11 billion for 100 percent of the business. ABB has a pre-defined option to exit the retained 19.9 percent shareholding three years after closing.

  • [단독외신] Coronavirus-hammered Air France discussing thousands of job cuts
    [단독외신] Coronavirus-hammered Air France discussing thousands of job cuts Air France is meeting with personnel representatives Friday to discuss thousands of job cuts after the virus pandemic grounded most flights and darkened prospects for future air travel. Activists from the far-left CGT union protested at Air France headquarters at Paris’ Charles de Gaulle Airport as the talks began. They’re particularly angry that the French government didn’t require Air France to protect jobs when it won 7 billion euros ($8 billion) in state bailout funds in May. Unions warn that job cuts will ripple across the French economy. French media reports have said the airline is looking to cut 7,500 jobs, primarily through voluntary departures. Airlines around the world are forecast to lose $84 billion this year, with revenue halved. Some have filed for bankruptcy or sought bailouts to survive the near-shutdown in their activity, and officials predict the industry will take years to recover. The 7 billion euros in state aid for Air France is in the form of loans and loan guarantees and part of a broader 15 billion euro rescue plan from the government for the aviation sector. The Air France meetings come days after European aircraft manufacturer Airbus, based in France, said that it must eliminate 15,000 jobs to safeguard its future.
