The sale of troubled German bank IKB should start next month and a capital hike was not planned, German newspaper Die Welt reported. IKB, which lends to roughly one in 10 of Germany's biggest companies, nearly collapsed under the strain of losses on its investments in risky U.S. home loans but was saved by a bail-out spearheaded by KfW in August. The spiralling cost of covering potential losses at IKB, now more than 6 billion euros ($8.7 billion), has led the government to prepare to sell its stake in the lender via state development bank KfW.
