However, it was not clear whether any of the suitors will eventually place bids. Bank of America, Goldman, Standard Chartered and Unitas declined comment. CVC could not be reached for immediate comment. Black & Decker did not reply to an e-mail seeking response. The sources did not want to be identified as they were not authorised to speak to the media.
