어제 (26일) 타타 모터스 홈피에서 발췌한 내용입니다.
뭐. 대단한건 없구요 6억불 가량되는 재규어와 랜드로버 직원의 연금을 보장하고 파워트레인과 기타 부품의 공급을 약조한다는 내이 주되고 그 밑에는 뭐 역사와 발전사항등이 나와 있습니다. (아참 한국의 타타대우도 타타 그룹소속입니다.)
이로써 영국의 자동자 산업의 대표주자였던 두개의 회사가 미국을 거쳐 다시 인도로 넘어가버렸네요 뭐 자존심 상할만한 일이겠지만 뭐 어쩌겠습니다. 사업이라는게 다 그런거지요
참 포드는 이 두회사를 구매하는대 대략 50억 달러 정도 소모했다고 합니다. 그리고 인수 후에도 대략 50억달러정도 이 두회사에 쏟아부었구요 그런데 이 두회사를 겨우 23억불에 팔아버렸으니 손해가 이만 저만 아닐것 같네요, 하지만 23억불의 현금이 유동되고 또 적자회사가 없어졌으니 올해는 상당한 흑자를 기록할것 같습니다. (당연히 23억불이 회계 정산시 이익으로 계산될것이니까요.)
타타 자동차 그룹은 인도내 최대 자동차 회사라고는 하지만 세계적인 인지도가 없던 회사에서 단번에 (지는해이지만) 럭셔리 브랜드를 가진 글러벌 회사로서의 경쟁력을 가지게 되었구요 지금의 기술력보다 높은 기술력을 가진 회사를 인수함으로써 더욱 발전할수 있는 계기를 만든것 같습니다. 언젠가 현대도 인수 검토했었다는 소식이 있었는데 그당시에 현대가 인수했으면 지금 인수가격보다 훨씬 높은가격에 인수했을것 같으니, 단기적으로 보면 다행이고 장기적으로는 또 하나의 큰 경쟁자를 만든것 같습니다.
