An industry and predicted that China's heavy truck's engine can do the limit is Euro standard.

While undergoing Financial Crisis of Man companies are also in pain, according to Goldman's first quarter filing shows that its net profit declined in 2008 compared to 43.8% in the face of rapidly shrinking profits, Goldman's chairman Hakan?

In such circumstances, the Cayman company that do not wish to die, it is only one way. Thus, Man's shadow began in the active market in developing countries. This year in March, Mann spent 1.18 billion euros the company has just completed a public Brazilian heavy truck business acquisitions. Analysts believe that this is already indirectly indicated that the temporary suspension of Man on the acquisition of Scania to focus on expanding in developing countries.
