Caltagirone to block Monte dei Paschi expansion plans

With a 10.26% stake in Monte dei Paschi di Siena, entrepreneur Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone has signaled a decisive confrontation at the upcoming October 29 shareholders' meeting, confirming his holding company will vote against the Tuscan bank's proposed acquisitions of Banco BPM and Banca Generali.

The opposition extends beyond individual buyouts to the bank's broader strategic direction. Caltagirone’s camp explicitly stated they will also reject a potential merger between Monte dei Paschi and Mediobanca. This move creates a significant hurdle for the bank’s leadership, as the entrepreneur’s double-digit ownership gives him substantial leverage to disrupt the consolidation plans currently under review.
