Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales (YPF, 1991–92) – national oil-company sold to the Spanish
Repsol. The Argentinian government in 2004 set up a new state oil company (
Enarsa) from scratch, which proved of no use. In 2012, the
Argentine Government expropriated 51% of the shares of
YPF owned by
Repsol.
The Shebin spinning and weaving factory in
Menoufia in the
Nile Delta was on strike against/locked out by its new non-Egyptian owners in the wake of the
2011 revolution. Workers and maybe the military now in control of the state were favoring
re-nationalization, according to one report. "[L]
iberal economic policy is tarred with [the old regime's] corruption," said Michael Wahid Hanna, in Cairo for the U.S.-based
Century Foundation.[4]Indorama, the new
Indonesian/
Thai[5] owner of Shebin,[6] was not quoted in the report. Looking further back to 2000, "well considered public spinners" Shebin El Kom and STIA, were then considered to have a "redundant labor problem ... [but] would otherwise be attractive privatization buying or leasing opportunities for private investors."[7] In 2011, STIA, also known as El Nasr Wool & Selected Textiles, of
Alexandria, remained "one of the largest public sector textiles companies."[8]
Aéroports de Paris – the French State remains the major shareholder: 52%

Gaz de France (GDF) – Prime minister
Dominique de Villepin announced a merger between GDF and
Suez; since the state owns 80% of GDF, a privatization of GDF would require the passing of a new law; the state would control only 34% of the capital of the new group: see
commentary.

Deutsche Telekom owns 45% of the shares, and the Hellenic State has retained 5%.
Public Power Corporation – In 2001, PPC carried out a share flotation on the Athens Stock Exchange and consequently was no longer wholly owned by the government, although it was still controlled by it with a 51.12% stake until 2021.
