Today, Wednesday, the Bank of Krnten and Styria (BKS) hold the most exciting Annual General Meeting in their history. It is not in vain that more shareholders have registered than usual.
As indicated, the Bank Austria as the largest minority shareholder, has requested a special audit of capital increases since 1994. Similar to the sister bank Bank of Tyrol and Vorarlberg (BTV)whose shareholders are meeting next week. Both banks and their third, to a larger sister bank, the Oberbank, see this as a challenge for Bank Austria or her mother UniCrediteither as an attempt at acquisition or as a tactic for money their actions. As we have already pointed out, this is an amount well above one billion euros, which could take the mailnder.
At Oberbank, Bank Austria has not filed a special audit application. For this reason, the deadlines for submitting applications have been completely exceeded and the application was filed on Friday just before midnight, just before the deadline, Jrgen Kullnigg vote on the supervisory board. Kullnigg is the Risk Officer for Bank Austria. This is confirmed by Oberbank's Managing Director Franz Gbadelsberger ON messages. It seems that Bank Austria wants to appoint a third member of the Supervisory Board, in addition to those who are represented Karl Saturday (Former CEO of Bank Austria) and CFP of Bank Austria Gregor Hofsttter-Pobst,
It is remarkable to the extent that the last two have already accepted the proposal to elect the next Supervisory Board, just like all the others. It is expected that the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Director General of BKS, Herta Stockbauer, and Wstenrot advice Stephan Koren be re-ordered and the designated voestalpineCEO Herbert Eibensteiner Wolfgang Eder also follows in this function.
However, the group of three banks apparently expects such a move. As a result, BTV filed a request to reduce the number of shareholders' representatives on the Oberbank Supervisory Board from twelve to eleven. This request should first be pbaded by law. Subsequently, only two members of the Supervisory Board could be elected. How this must be interpreted, Gbadelsberger did not want to judge. However, the fact is that Bank Austria, with less than a quarter of its shares, would have more difficulty for only eleven members to claim a third term.
