Bpm, for Ponzellini "Harps are welcome"

Matteo Arpe in the capital of Bpm? “He's welcome”, declared Massimo Ponzellini, president of the bank, today on the sidelines of the Ambrosetti workshop in Cernobbio. He essentially denied the Amici della Bpm association, which yesterday said it was against this eventuality.
According to Ponzellini, "as long as one puts the money in and everyone is welcome". In recent days, rumors have circulated according to which the ex of Capitalia would be interested in participating with a chip of 200 million in the imminent capital increase of 1,2 billion of Pop Milano. There are even those who speak of an Arpe-Ponzellini alternation at the top of the group.
But yesterday Alessandro Dall'Asta, president of the Amici della Bpm association, had assured that there were no contacts with Arpe and that the capital increase could be supported by the bank's traditional stakeholders (customers, shareholders, members, historical investors and employees), without having to open to "outsiders".
