Italian billionaire Leonardo Del Vecchio has asked the European Central Bank for permission to increase his stake in Mediobanca to up to 20%, a source said on Sunday confirming a press report.
Del Vecchio, 85, chairman of eye-wear giant EssilorLuxottica, became Mediobanca’s biggest shareholder in November with a holding of just under 10% after the bank’s decades-long partner UniCredit sold its entire stake.
He needs ECB approval to lift the stake above the 10% threshold. However, the source said getting a green light would not necessarily mean an immediate move by Del Vecchio. La Repubblica newspaper, which first reported news of the request, said the ECB had 90 days to give its approval.When Del Vecchio became Mediobanca’s largest shareholder, he said he aimed to create a stable ownership base for the investment bank and insurer Generali, in which Mediobanca is the leading shareholder with 13%.
In October, sources close the matter said he wanted to have more control over the future of Generali including through possible cross-border deals.Our Standards:
