Intesa Sanpaolo shareholders approve capital increase for MPS takeover
Intesa Sanpaolo shareholders have overwhelmingly approved a capital increase to facilitate the bank’s voluntary public tender and exchange offer for Monte dei Paschi di Siena (MPS). The extraordinary meeting saw a 96.96% approval rate, representing a significant mandate for the bank’s leadership.
The resolution authorizes the board of directors to issue up to 5.7 billion new ordinary shares by September 10, 2027. These shares will be used to fund the acquisition of all ordinary shares of MPS, a move intended to reshape the Italian banking landscape.
CEO Carlo Messina stated that the integration is a key step toward building a leading European banking group. Intesa Sanpaolo has outlined ambitious targets for 2029, including serving over 27 million customers, managing approximately €2 trillion in financial assets, and generating a net income exceeding €16 billion. The group also expects to distribute roughly €61 billion to shareholders during the 2025-2029 period.
