MILAN (Reuters) – Italy’s biggest bank UniCredit <CRDI.MI> is minded not to leave the shareholder pact of influential investment bank Mediobanca <MDBI.MI> in September, two sources familiar with the matter said on Monday.
Members of the shareholder pact of Mediobanca, which is the top investor in Italy’s biggest insurer Generali <GASI.MI>, have until the end of September to take a decision on whether they wish to exit the pact or not.
Shareholders in the pact hold a combined 28.5 percent stake in Mediobanca.
UniCredit declined to comment.
