Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale: Status of bidding process / Reduction of NPL Shipping Portfolio
Hannover, 3 December 2018:
On 28 November 2018, Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale, Hanover ("NORD/LB") received four offers for investor participations in NORD/LB in connection with a bidding process initiated at the end of September to evaluate NORD/LB's options to strengthen its capital basis.
Following an initial analysis of the received bids, NORD/LB's holders (Träger) have decided today, 3 December 2018, to conduct follow-up discussions with such bidders concerning important framework conditions. Subsequently one or more bidders will be chosen to carry on further in-depth negotiations. In addition, other options will be discussed based on previous conversations. Due to the complexity and different strategic directions of the bids, a final decision in favour of one of the options may only be made at the beginning of next year in close cooperation with the supervisory authorities.
In addition, NORD/LB continues to work on the thorough reduction of its NPL Ship Financing Portfolio. In this context, the progress regarding the reduction of this portfolio before the implementation of options to strengthen NORD/LB's capital basis may lead to a temporary decrease of capital ratios and a potential balance sheet loss.
