Hostile public takeover offer of 5 May 2026. The management board, supervisory board, the Federal Government and ver.di rejected it; by the deadline on 3 July 2026 only approx. 17.6% of the shares had been tendered – offer failed. ver.di saw up to 10,000 jobs at risk. Update (6 Aug 2026): UniCredit has meanwhile built its Commerzbank stake to around 48%. On 6 August 2026, around Commerzbank's quarterly results, CEO Bettina Orlopp confirmed that new talks on the bank's future ownership structure had started ('We have started talks on this, which is in the genuine interest of both UniCredit and Commerzbank'). Earlier rounds of talks had each ended without agreement. Source: RTÉ, 6 August 2026. Update (16.10.2026): The ECB banking supervisor has authorised UniCredit to exceed the 30% threshold in Commerzbank and to raise its stake further without a ceiling. According to UniCredit, the remaining regulatory procedures should be completed around the end of the year; it would then hold about 50% of the voting rights and could take control (finews.ch, 16 Oct 2026). — Sources: https://www.commerzbank.de/konzern/was-uns-bewegt/commerzbank-als-unternehmen/2026-unicredit-position-faq.html · https://www.rte.ie/news/business/2026/0806/1586702-commerzbank-quarterly-results/ · https://www.finews.ch/news/banken/74019-unicredit-commerzbank-genehmigung-ezb-bankenaufsicht

UniCredit plans to cut 300 to 400 jobs in Germany, predominantly in the IT area, staggered until 2027. The background is the centralisation of IT functions and the relocation of activities to low-wage regions (including Eastern Europe) as part of a digitalisation strategy. The measure coincides with UniCredit's existing position as a major shareholder in Commerzbank and fuels speculation about possible takeover synergies. Banking unions and Commerzbank's works council are watching the developments closely. — Source: https://www.avronline.de/nachrichten/news-views-markets/unicredit-stellenabbau-deutschland-commerzbank/12684/
