The marriage between EADS and BAE Systems has officially jumped .
At the root of the failure of the different points of view between Airbus and BAE , completely discordant in places . The dream of creating a global group can counteract Boeing fails . could be the world number one with over 70 billion euro turnover and 220 thousand employees .
not have the same opinion on European exchanges . Paris celebrated rewarding Eads with an increase of 5,1%. Bae has lost more than 1% on the London Stock .
for the number one Bae , Ian King "it became clear that the governmental interests of the parties can not be reconciled with each other or with the objectives that BAE Systems and EADS have set for the merger" .
But whose fault is it ?
Last September, Paris and Berlin had promised to quickly arrive at a common position .
London, however, has tried to convince our partners to reduce the share capital in order to maintain relations with the Pentagon Bae . My only ’ Paris, not’ Berlin were willing to settle that gave the power to veto members considered hostile .
Neutral Finmeccanica , despite the positive news for the Italian multinational , cede in borsa lo 0.77% taking in 4.13 € per share .
Gran Bretagna, France and Germany have resumed talks to avoid disagreements about the ownership structure of the merged firm EADS and BAE Systems .
Philip Hammond, British Secretary of Defense , said that the French must accept a "considerable reduction " participation in the group merged , a fee to be on a par with the "single digit " that have large institutional investors .
The sure thing , secondo Hammond, that is hardly able to meet the deadline of next Wednesday .
"If they can resolve the central question of equity investments , then there will be more time to become on other things like the headquarters , the weight in the councils and other issues, " , said a diplomat who follows negotiations . Otherwise, the 10 October Enders and King "have already indicated that come off the plug" .
According to rumors, the new company from 38 billion resulting from the merger of the two giants ( Eads e Bae Systems) you could call their own Airbus .
The British group (BAE) opposes the proposal stating that the name would not be well seen in the U.S. , where Airbus is seen as the historical rival Boeing in aircraft .
For EADS Airbus would name instead focus group .
In the meantime, there are far greater problems in the choice of the name . Second Andrew Hill, Financial Times journalist , we must be careful that fidelity to the flags could hinder enterprise integration .
Geoffrey Owen, former newspaper columnist and Senior Fellow of the Department of Management London School of Economics , recommended instead of considering not only the political aspect of the merger because Bae should instead explain the background of the economic and financial deal with EADS .
Over the past twelve years, the British group has focused more on military defense than on civil aerospace , becoming a company principally defense , with 40% sales to the U.S. .

For Finmeccanica is a heavy blow.
As a result of a merger between the British BAE Systems and the Franco-German EADS would be the birth of a group 34 billion in revenue a year, that would put in the background the Italian company controlled by the Treasury.
Finmeccanica has felt the blow especially on the stock exchange where last week he also lost to 4 percent. Some operators Markets do not digest the fact that companies come under the control of governments.
The new company will collect orders and civil aviation in the military that will come from emerging markets in the world, clashing with the international giants such as Boeing and Lockheed.
In addition, the merger between EADS and BAE Systems will strengthen Airbus that will become part of a global giant able to churn out more and more innovative products, technology and jobs.
