(Photo by Satoko Kawasaki) SEIYA OTA TOKYO -- Japanese auto parts supplier Marelli Holdings announced Tuesday that a group led by U.S. investment firm Strategic Value Partners will sponsor the company's turnaround, with the goal of rising out of bankruptcy protection next year. The group of five lenders -- which are Marelli's creditors -- also includes Germany's Deutsche Bank and Asian private equity firm MBK Partners. The consortium was designated as sponsors after the 45-day "overbid" period for accepting superior proposals from competing buyers ended Tuesday as part of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process.
