BNP parabis still interested in fortis-deal.


We all know that BNP parabis would gain a lot of influence in the Belgian and Luxembourgish financial markets. BNP parabis didn’t seem to suffer that much under the financial crisis, so for them this was almost a closed deal. However since the fortis-deal was launched a lot of this certainty disappeared. The quotation of BNP on Euronext halved and because of the bankruptcy of Madoff they lost hundreds of millions of Euros. So doubts aren’t unthinkable in such a situation. Nevertheless a spokesman of BNP parabis declared that the bank still is interested to take over parts of Fortis.
