Today: So könnte Reiches Spritpreisdeckel aussehen | Warum sich Commerzbank-Aktionäre abwenden
Ein Gesetzesentwurf von Wirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche hat Konfliktpotenzial. Und: Deshalb fürchten prominente Commerzbank-Aktionäre um ihren „Investment Case“.
The German government and federal states have agreed on a nationwide cap on fuel prices due to the ongoing Iran conflict. The Federal Ministry of Economy, led by Chancellor Katherina Reiche (CDU), is drafting the law for this so-called "fuel price ceiling," but Reiche herself considers this approach "the wrong way." Handelsblatt's Berlin correspondent Julian Olk has exclusively seen the still-secret law draft and discusses in a podcast how Reiche envisions the fuel price ceiling.
The main focus is on the takeover of Commerzbank by Italian Unicredit. Unicredit acquired access to around 50 percent of Commerzbank shares through a voluntary exchange offer in the summer and plans to control the bank by the end of the year. However, this development seems to worry some shareholders, who fear that the takeover would ruin their "investment case" and consequently, they are turning away from Commerzbank.
In the podcast, Handelsblatt's banking reporter Andreas Kröner explains why some investors fear that the takeover would ruin their investment case and turn to Commerzbank. He also discusses whether individual investors should have similar concerns.
