Deutsche Bank is sharpening its
weapons and studying possible countermoves to thwart the
possible takeover of Commerzbank by UniCredit after Italy's
second biggest bank upped its stake in the German lender to 9%,
Bloomberg said Monday.
Among the options being considered by CEO Christian Sewing is
the purchase of some or all of the remaining 12 per cent stake
in Commerzbank still held by the German government, according to
Bloomberg.
There has so far been no official comment from Deutsche Bank.
