Top-ten Holcim shareholder says merger with Lafarge may collapse


    ZURICH (Reuters) - A top-10 shareholder in Holcim said on Monday a planned merger with French rival Lafarge could collapse if deal terms are not renegotiated in the Swiss cement maker's favor.

    The shareholder, who declined to be named, said Zurich-based HOLCIM (HOLN.CH)will seek stronger representation on the combined company's board, which had originally been set at seven representatives from both firms.
