Thomas Cook shareholder says firm to be sold as whole or in parts

ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Thomas Cook (L:TCG) will be sold as a whole or in parts after its collapse, the company's second-largest shareholder said on Monday, adding he would see what is offered before deciding whether to buy more assets.

Neset Kockar, who holds an 8% stake in the UK-based travel firm, said Thomas Cook owes "a few hundred million pounds" to Turkish businesses that may not be paid after it is sold.
