PARIS (Agefi-Dow Jones)–Luxury group Prada is considering a second listing on the Milan Stock Exchange to broaden its shareholding and raise at least $1 billion (about 970 million euros), reported Friday Bloomberg, citing sources familiar with the matter.
The Italian company, which is already listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, has secured the services of Goldman Sachs to move towards a second listing in Milan. This could take place next year.

For the first half ended at the end of June, the Milanese group published a turnover up 22% over one year, to 1.9 billion euros, and a virtual doubling of its net profit, to 188 million. euros.
