Germany has dismissed the possibility of Italy’s UniCredit launching a full bid for German rival Commerzbank at present. This statement was made by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz<\/a> during a news conference in Rome, following his meeting with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. For more details, you can read the full report here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

UniCredit, which has previously secured a Commerzbank stake of around 28% through a complex web of financial transactions involving derivatives, received European Central Bank approval in March to increase this stake to 29.9%. However, the company has indicated that any decision regarding a full takeover will be postponed until 2026-2027. Under German regulations, surpassing a 30% stake would necessitate a buyout offer.<\/p>\n

Chancellor Merz emphasized<\/a> that the current shareholding does not meet the threshold requiring a takeover offer, nor is it expected to reach that level. He remarked that the topic of Commerzbank was not discussed with Meloni as there was no immediate cause for concern. Merz has previously voiced his opposition to a potential takeover, citing it as potentially detrimental to Germany.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the German finance ministry refuted claims of an impending meeting between Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil and his Italian counterpart to deliberate on UniCredit’s merger ambitions.<\/p>\n
