POSCO aims to raise $2 billion by end-2015 through restructuring


    SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's POSCO aims to raise about 2 trillion won ($1.95 billion) by the end of 2015 through restructuring efforts, the steelmaker said after reporting quarterly earnings on Thursday.

    POSCO earlier promised sweeping restructuring, including selling non-core assets, after investment and acquisitions over the past four years more than doubled its debt.

    POSCO also said it is helping peer ArcelorMittal SA find Korean buyers for a 10 percent stake a Canadian iron ore operation.
