Michal Strnad reportedly offers €30 billion for Del Vecchio family firm Delfin

Czech billionaire Michal Strnad reportedly offered €30 billion to buy Delfin, the Del Vecchio family's investment vehicle and a key EssilorLuxottica shareholder. Delfin also holds stakes in three Italian financial companies. Shareholder Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio said he was informed of an offer from a foreign investor and argued that his father's work must remain part of Italy's heritage. A sale would reportedly require virtually unanimous support from Delfin's eight heirs.
