Bombardier to buy Global jet wing-making unit from Triumph
(Reuters) - Canada's Bombardier Inc (TO:BBDb) said on Thursday it will buy a wing manufacturing unit from aircraft parts supplier Triumph Group (N:TGI) to boost its business jets program.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Bombardier said it would buy the assets for a "a nominal cash consideration."

The deal will not affect Bombardier's 2020 financial targets, the company said.
