Reducing or cancelling the 5.5 billion euro special dividend Fiat Chrysler is due to pay to its shareholders before the merger is closed would allow the new group to retain cash at a time when the coronavirus crisis has badly hit car markets around the world.Options that FCA is considering with PSA include spinning off Sevel van business, a 50-50 joint venture between the two groups, or FCA's Alfa Romeo and Maserati brands, the report said.
Another option being considered to reduce the amount of the cash dividend is scrapping a planned spin-off of PSA's controlling stake in part maker Faurecia , Il Sole 24 Ore said.
