Thyssenkrupp elevator unit attracts at least three major bidders - sources

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - At least three major bidding groups have submitted indicative offers seeking a majority stake in Thyssenkrupp's (DE:TKAG) elevator unit, four people familiar with the matter said.

The bidders are also prepared to take a minority stake if it helps to win over key stakeholders at the group, including activist fund Cevian, which favours an outright sale, and labour representatives, who oppose this.
