MAN Roland to Go Public

According to Gerd Finkbeiner, CEO of MAN Roland Druckmaschinen, continuity in the management, corporate structure and MAN Roland brand names will ensure that the company maintains credibility and reliability for customers and employees.

One byproduct of the venture involves Allianz Capital Partners supporting MAN in making selective acquisitions to bolster its sheetfed, web and consumables offerings. Though the announcement didn’t mention any specifics, Allianz CEO Thomas Pütter feels the newly liberated company could “play a decisive role in the imminent consolidation of the industry.”
