An Italian investment fund, Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, is considering the acquisition of a stake in the Tecnica Group through a capital increase, according to the Italian daily Sole 24 Ore. The funds would help the company to reach its objective of generating a double-digit operating margin on a turnover of more than €350 million by 2018, up from €330 million in the past year. The group, which is controlled by the family of Giancarlo Zanatta and his son Alberto, has apparently implemented a successful financial recovery plan with the help of the banks, as it is said to have respected its bank covenants.
