Informator Training Group's German subsidiary files for bankruptcy

Informator Training Group's German subsidiary files for bankruptcy Bure's portfolio company, Informator Training Group (ITG), has filed a petition to have its German subsidiary, Prokoda, declared bankrupt. The bankruptcy will not make a significant financial impact on Bure. The petition for bankruptcy was filed after a period of intensive work on a rescue plan. The rescue plan meant that the company's management and employees would be given the opportunity to become partners in the company. The rescue plan did not get sufficient support from the management and the employees, which is why the company has now filed a petition for bankruptcy. Prokoda has around 80 employees and reports sales of just under SEK 90M. ITG´s Swedish subsidiary, Informator Utbildning Svenska AB, is not affected by the bankruptcy.
