(ANSA) - Rome, March 18 - The board of directors of Banca
Carige will meet Thursday to discuss the European Central Bank's
response to their plan to fill a capital shortfall, officials
said Wednesday.
Cesare Castelbarco, bank president, confirmed rumours that
the ECB has given its opinion of Carige's capital plan.
That was triggered late last year when the ECB conducted a
series of stability tests to measure the resiliency of major
banks in the eurozone.
Carige was found to be short on capital reserves, which it
is now planning to augment.
