Problems ahead for Bpm, which after the latest gains in Piazza Affari turns decidedly into negative territory. At 14 pm, the Bank's stock was in the red by 30%, at 3,2 euro. The trend reversal is due to press rumors according to which the guarantee consortium led by Mediobanca intends to press to postpone the 1,602 billion capital increase. It would be a matter of waiting for better times.
The roadmap envisaged that the launch of the plan would arrive on Thursday, but at this point the top management of Bpm cannot fail to take into account the will of the advisors. If in the end it is decided to stall for more time, the top management of Banca Popolare di Milano could be summoned again to talks by Bank of Italy.
