Deutsche Bank is seeking a buyer for all, or part, of Maher Terminals container handling facilities in the United States and Canada that it purchased for US$2.3 billion including debt in 2007.
The Wall Street Journal reported cited sources familiar with the matter, who claimed that Maher had accumulated $1.5 billion in losses at Deutsche Bank since the financial crisis.
It cited one source as saying Deutsche Bank may sell the whole business or seek separate deals for Maher's two terminals, or it could opt not to sell now at all.
It said a sale of the whole business could fetch a price between $800 million and $1 billion, Reuters reported.
