The construction group Bilfinger Berger services is not affected by the turbulence on the stock market and further plans for acquisitions. “We want to use our room of investment up to two years in the coming months”, the new head of the direction of Roland Koch said Thursday in Mannheim. “Look us very carefully,”, he added. Available from EUR 825 million are the Group on liquid assets.
