‘Sweden has doubts about Spyker listing’

The Swedish stock exchange has its doubts about listing Dutch luxury car maker Spyker, the Financieele Dagblad reports on Monday.


Spyker bought Sweden’s Saab group at the beginning of this year and said it wanted a double listing in Amsterdam and Sweden.
But the company is ‘technically bankrupt’, with negative shareholders’ equity of €126m and this could prove a problem, the paper said.
‘I cannot remember that we have ever listed a company which is technically bankrupt,’ head of supervision Annika von Haartman told the paper. ‘It would be extremely unusual.’ However, she declined to comment on Spyker’s specific case.
