Intesa Sanpaolo proposes €30.6 billion takeover of Monte dei Paschi di Siena
Intesa Sanpaolo is pursuing a major consolidation of the Italian banking sector with a €30.6 billion offer for Monte dei Paschi di Siena (MPS). The proposed acquisition aims to create a massive financial group serving over 27 million customers with nearly €2 trillion in financial assets by 2029. Intesa expects to realize approximately €2.9 billion in financial synergies through cost savings and increased revenue.
In response to the offer, MPS has proposed defensive transactions involving Banco BPM and Banca Generali to protect its independence. Intesa Sanpaolo shareholders are set to vote on the transaction on September 10.
Separately, FinecoBank shares saw a decline on the Milan Stock Exchange, closing at €23.21 on September 9, 2026, representing a 1.1 percent drop from the previous day. The stock's movement was noted alongside a slight decline in the FTSE MIB index.
