Spain's BBVA seeks ECB go-ahead for Sabadell hostile bid, source says
Spain's BBVA asked the European Central Bank on Tuesday to authorize its more than 12 billion euro ($13 billion) hostile bid for Sabadell, a source close to BBVA said. BBVA's all-share offer was rejected by Sabadell last month, prompting Spain's second-largest bank to go hostile in its latest attempt to buy its smaller rival, which is the country's fourth-largest lender and also owns Britain's TSB. "With this submission, BBVA has now completed all the authorization requests, including the UK's Prudential Regulation Authority," the source told Reuters.

BBVA sets July 5 for vote on share issue to fund Sabadell bid
Spanish bank BBVA's shareholders will vote on July 5 on whether to approve a share issue to fund its 12 billion euro ($13 billion) hostile takeover bid for smaller rival Banco Sabadell. The bank wants to issue 1.126 billion new shares, which at BBVA's closing price of 10.9 euros on April 29 - before the bank revealed its Sabadell bid - would be worth slightly more than 12.2 billion euros. BBVA has offered one newly issued BBVA share for every 4.83 in Sabadell, representing a premium of 30% over Sabadell's April 29 closing price of 1.73750 euros.
