Caracas to pay Holcim $650m for seized assets
Holcim has reached agreement with Venezuela over compensation for the seizure of its assets in 2008, ending a two-year stand-off with Hugo Chávez’s government, the FT reports. The world’s second biggest cement producer on Monday said it would receive $650m for its former Venezuelan subsidiary, which was nationalised in 2008 - along with other construction companies’ assets - after complaints by Mr Chávez that not enough homes were being built.
