JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) -Dutch technology investor Prosus is not planning to list Indian digital payments and lending firm PayU this year, with the focus on improving the business over the next six to 12 months, its chief financial officer said on Monday.

While Prosus hoped to list PayU by 2025, "that is not going to be our focus in the next year. Our focus is actually going to be to improve that business," Nico Marais, Prosus's chief financial officer told Reuters.
