The speculation originated when senior retail analyst at Credit Suisse, Tony Shiret suggested that the new chief executive John Browett could cut the group's property portfolio by up to a third.
The group's task will be to collate data and look into the groups domestic and international operations, with the intention of reviving the company's brands in Europe.
