Last week was another clunker for Interpublic Group, with McCann-Erickson losing creative on Coke Classic to WPP Group’s Berlin Cameron/Red Cell. And this week will be just as challenging.

Today is the deadline for IPG to renegotiate its bank loans. And later this week, the company expects to strike a deal to sell its NFO WorldGroup research arm.
