Patron Capital Expresses Interest in Cammell Laird

Venture capital group Patron Capital reportedly has approached the receivers of Cammell Laird about buying parts of the failed British shipbuilder.

Former Lehman Brothers banker Keith Breslauer who runs Patron was quoted as saying he had "expressed an interest in the U.K. business" to receivers PriceWaterhouseCoopers, but "we're not so keen on the international businesses."
