German lender NordLB has abandoned efforts to sell a 1.3 billion euro ($1.5 billion) portfolio of shipping loans to KKR, Handelsblatt reported on Monday, citing a spokesman for NordLB.


NordLB had said in April it hoped to complete a deal by the end of June.


Neither NordLB nor KKR were immediately available for comment.
