| Verselb(st)ständigung separation Explanation: I agree with Swisstell... ..and separation is part of a spin-off process but I think that you could possibly call it "separation (process)" if you want to distinguish between the actual act of separating (Verselbständigung) and (trade) sale (Veräußerung) or: through the separation- and sale process separation in the sense of a group becoming (more or less) independent, a separate legal entity, a stand-alone business. http://www.investor.bayer.com/1269_grndeundziele/grndeundzie...

peer agreement (net): +1NFG -FYI the process of separating out (and selling off) Explanation: instead of having one single company handling everything from freight to passenger operations and beyond, the freight "arm" is being separated out - made into a separate operation - with a view to selling off: the so-called liberalisation of the maket .... Think of the way the old BR has been split up and sold off in the UK. Need I say more? |

Making independent/autonomous; autonomising Explanation: "Sectorisation" was the word used when BR was broken up into some 200-odd companies (and weren't some of them odd too...) in the 1980s. So possibly sectorisation and disposal(s)? |
