Commerzbank finalises agreement with SoFFin
Commerzbank has finalised its agreement with the Financial Market Stabilization Fund (SoFFin) as planned. SoFFin has acquired approximately 295 million shares resulting from the capital increase approved by the Annual General Meeting at EUR 6 per share and thus holds a stake of 25% plus one share in Commerzbank. The capital increase was registered in the commercial register (Handelsregister) today. Commerzbank received a total of around EUR 1.8 billion from the increase in its share capital. In addition, the bank has now received the second SoFFin silent participation of EUR 8.2 billion.
