Spain's Caixabank said on Thursday it was considering selling its entire 9.92% stake in the Austrian lender Erste Group Bank. The stake has current a market value of around 1.65 billion euros ($1.92 billion), taking into account the Austrian lender's 429.8 million outstanding shares and Thursday's closing price of 38.76 euros per share, according to data from Refinitiv. Like other Spanish and European banks, Caixabank, which in March closed the acquisition of Bankia, is trying to comply with harsher solvency requirements and regulators are demanding banks to focus on their core banking business.
