Article Abstract:
Several strategies are planned by BMW AG to stem the bleeding of its Rover unit. Inefficient production facilities and buying from vendors who price in pounds rather euros will be among the changes. Rover lost even more money in 1999 than it did in 1998. The company hopes to be in the black by 2002.
