peer agreement (net): +1| american xxxx divested. vendió/cedió activos Explanation: + -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 38 mins (2006-02-19 17:49:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Although it has also been suggested in the context of business/divestiture, I'm not so sure the verb "desinvestir" would be appropriate; it appears to be more common in Portuguese (than in Spanish). divestiture (dî-vès´tî-cher, -ch¢r´, dì-) noun 1. An act of divesting. 2. The sale, liquidation, or spinoff of a corporate division or subsidiary.

Espero que sirva. Saludos y suerte! Reference: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/241026 |
