COMPANIES Goldman Sachs, TPG and Bain Capital are to consider an investment in HeidelbergCement, the debt-ridden cement maker belonging to the family of Adolf Merckle, the German billionaire who committed suicide last week.
People familiar with the buy-out groups on Friday said the three had joined forces to express interest in a large stake in one of the biggest cement makers in the world, preferably giving them majority control of the company.
