Raiffeisen receives offer for Hungarian unit, says spokeswoman
Budapest, 09.01.2014
Austria’s Raiffeisen Bank International has received an offer to buy its Hungarian unit and is studying it, Ingrid Krenn-Ditz, the bank’s spokeswoman, told MTI on Tuesday. Krenn-Ditz declined to comment on whether a report by business daily Napi Gazdasag that Raiffeisen’s board would decide on Tuesday on the offer was accurate. She confirmed that Raiffeisen had received offers to buy its units in Ukraine and Hungary. But she declined to reveal the interested parties. “We are studying the offers. I cannot say any more on the matter,” she said. Napi Gazdasag’s online edition reported on Tuesday that the small Szechenyi Commercial Bank (SZKB) would acquire Raiffeisen’s Hungarian unit for a token sum of EUR 1 and would also take over the unit’s bad loans. Such a transaction would make the acquisition of the much bigger Raiffeisen unit by Szechenyi possible but would make the loss-making loan stock a state burden, the financial website portfolio.hu commented, as the state of Hungary acquired a 49 percent stake in SZKB in June 2013. Last June the state of Hungary raised the bank’s registered capital from HUF 3.1bn to HUF 6.1bn, giving it an at least HUF 3bn capital injection. The bank’s majority owner is T&T Ingatlanforgalmazo es Vagyonkezelo, a company tied to Government Debt Management Agency (AKK) head Istvan Torocskei. odkaz na stránku
