Investment house Merrill Lynch says that the chances of privatizing the Bezeq phone company do not look good, Ma'ariv reports.
Merrill Lynch has been looking for possible buyers, at the behest of Israel's Government Companies Authority. So far it has received all of one tentative nibble, Merrill Lynch says, and that from an investment bank. No strategic investors, in the form of major telcos, seem interested.
