NBG not interested in Banca Transilvania - CFO

NBG announced that the new 110.367m shares resulting from its recent share capital increase will debut trading on ATHEX on Thursday July 30. Moreover, the bank's CFO Mr. Thomopoulos said on an interview with financial Xrimatistirio that NBG is not interested for Banca Transilvania nor any any other Greek bank, verifying earlier reports from Reporternet.com.

Mr. Thomopoulos added that NBG is interested in expanding in the broader SEE and Mediterranean region, proceeding to small acquisition. This is in line with the bank's strategy and comes as no surprise.

He also highlighted that following the successful rights issue, NBG is one of the best capitalised banks in Europe, with very strong liquidity, enjoying the highest RoE among its European peers.
