STOCKHOLM: Now that investors had stopped badgering Telia AB chief executive officer Johan Dennelind about how his plan to exit Central Asian markets is progressing, he’s turning to an eyesore closer to home: Denmark.
The phone company executive’s patience with the Danish unit, where Telia’s fixed-line business is small and the wireless arm is “subscale,” is dwindling, Dennelind said in an interview here. He’s reviewing options in the country and wants to announce a solution – which could mean a sale of the unit – before the end of the year.
