Italian bank Mediobanca rejects takeover bid by domestic rival Monte dei Paschi

Italian bank Mediobanca on Tuesday rejected a surprise takeover attempt by domestic rival Monte dei Paschi di Siena. Mediobanca said in a statement that the offer “is devoid of industrial and financial rationale.” Monte dei Paschi, Italy’s oldest bank, launched a 13.3 billion-euro ($13.9 billion) takeover bid last week for larger Milan-based peer Mediobanca that aims to reshape the Italian banking sector.

Bid discount indicates scepticism over MPS bid for Italian rival Mediobanca

MILAN/ROME (Reuters) -The discount to market prices represented by Monte dei Paschi's bid (MPS) for Mediobanca widened further on Monday, signalling deepening investor doubts over the bailed out Tuscan bank's offer for a bigger rival. On Friday, the state-backed lender launched a surprise 13.3 billion euro all-share ($13.9 billion) buyout bid for Mediobanca, whose board meets on Tuesday to start reviewing the offer. Based on Italian rules, the board will be able to give formal advice to shareholders only once the bid's prospectus is public, in a few months' time.

Italian bank Monte dei Paschi launches 13 billion euro takeover bid for peer Mediobanca

Italian bank Monte dei Paschi di Siena announced Friday it was launching a 13.3 billion euro ($13.9 billion) takeover bid for larger peer Mediobanca in a surprise move that could reshape the country’s banking sector. Monte Paschi, Italy's oldest bank, has a market capitalization of about 9 billion euros, while Mediobanca’s market value is about 12.7 billion euros. Under the terms of the offer, Mediobanca investors would receive 23 shares in Monte Paschi for every 10 Mediobanca shares they hold.

Monte dei Paschi bids for Mediobanca as Italian banking drama escalates

MILAN (Reuters) -State-backed Monte dei Paschi di Siena on Friday joined the consolidation wave sweeping Italian banking with a surprise 13.3 billion euro ($14 billion) all-share offer to buy merchant bank Mediobanca. The takeover offer, which was welcomed by the government but puzzled analysts and investors, comes after previous attempts to return Monte dei Paschi (MPS) to the private sector failed. UniCredit CEO Andrea Orcel ditched a proposed MPS acquisition in 2021 and bid instead in November for Banco BPM, derailing government plans for an MPS-BPM tie-up.

Italy brings on board Banco BPM in $1.2 billion Monte dei Paschi stake sale

ROME (Reuters) -Italy on Wednesday raised 1.1 billion euros ($1.16 billion) by selling 15% of bailed-out bank Monte dei Paschi di Siena (MPS), bringing on board rival Banco BPM as a shareholder in the Tuscan lender. Banco BPM, Italy's third-largest bank and the Italian Treasury's preferred option as a merger partner for MPS, has taken a 5% stake and said it has no plans to cross the 9.9% ownership threshold in MPS, reiterating its standalone strategy. Banco BPM said the investment was consistent with the buyout offer it launched last week to acquire full control of Anima Holding, a fund manager which also sells its products through MPS branches.
