FRANKFURT (Reuters) -A meeting between Commerzbank and UniCredit on Friday will be held virtually in the morning, a person with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters.
The meeting is a first round of talks between the two banks as the Italian lender presses for a possible tie-up and Commerzbank hones its defence.
It was not immediately clear which executives from the banks would meet on Friday although insiders have said UniCredit’s chief Andrea Orcel would not be there.
