Interim figures: Commerzbank: Record result after nine months
Commerzbank is staying on track for a record year. However, the takeover of the DAX group by UniCredit is taking center stage. What's next for the management board around Bettina Orlopp?
Commerzbank reports a profit of 859 million euros for the third quarter of 2026, a 45% increase from the same period last year. For the first nine months, the bank's surplus rose by over 40% to approximately 2.7 billion euros, its best result for this period in its history. Commerzbank's CEO, Bettina Orlopp, attributes the strong performance to the bank's potential.
The bank aims to achieve a record profit of at least 3.4 billion euros for the full year. Unicredit, which has secured access to nearly half of Commerzbank's shares, plans to explore synergies between the two banks.
