Commerzbank disclosed these figures to counter what it described as conflicting statements from UniCredit regarding the success of the acquisition effort. The bank emphasized that its shareholder structure remains largely unchanged despite months of maneuvering for control. Beyond the institutional participation, retail investors have contributed a marginal 0.05% to the tender, while other banks account for the remaining 11.17% of the 12.51% total shares currently submitted.
