Bloomberg cited people with knowledge of the matter as saying that the asset could fetch as much as 2 billion euros ($2.36 billion).

** Japan\'s SoftBank Corp said it and other firms including Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd had invested about 70 billion yen ($600 million) into Travice Inc, the operator of Chinese taxi hailing app Kuaidi Dache.

** Dollar General Corp stuck to its estimate of divesting 1,500 stores to win approval for its bid to buy Family Dollar Stores Inc, a move that analysts said could end up handing the company to Dollar Tree Inc.

Holtzbrinck will hold 53 percent in the joint company, with BC Partners holding the rest.

** South Africa\'s state-run Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) said it would not consider selling its holdings in listed companies in order to take pressure off the country\'s cash-strapped power utility Eskom, its chief executive told local media.

** A unit of Norwegian conglomerate Orkla has agreed to buy Swedish consumer goods maker Cederroth in a transaction valuing the firm at 2.02 billion Swedish crowns ($249.84 million) on a debt free basis.
