We’re actively looking for ways to improve our portfolio in pursuit of synergies and scale, to redeploy capital towards growing our core Coatings businesses. In October, we announced a strategic review of our portfolio with an initial focus on South Asia, where AkzoNobel has a premium, highly profitable position in Decorative Paints, with a strong track record of growth. This portfolio review represents a key step towards focusing our portfolio on positions of differentiating scale in key coatings markets.
