Chunk of Maxwell Empire Sold Off: Insolvency experts struck the biggest deal so far in the breakup of the empire of late media tycoon Robert Maxwell, agreeing to sell his British research businesses for an undisclosed sum. The sale of most of AGB Research’s British businesses to Addison Consultancy Group will make Addison the largest market research group in Britain. Industry analysts said the businesses involved in the deal, announced by Addison, could be worth up to $35 million.
