Synopsis

Portuguese bank Novo Banco and Portuguese construction company Mota-Engil (Euronext Lisboa:EGL) may have hired Espírito Santo Investment - BESI to sell between a 20% and 60% stake in Ascendi Group, as reported by Jornal de Negócios on 31 July 2015, without citing sources.

Ascendi Group, besides controlling concessions in Portugal, it holds assets in Spain, Brazil, Mexico and Mozambique. The group focuses in three lines of business: management of transport infrastructure concessions, providing operation and maintenance services and toll collection services.
