As a deal to buy HSBC‘s wealth management division in Germany approaches, the Dutch bank ABN Amro is looking to grow further in the region.
According to Reuters, an announcement regarding the acquisition of the company, which was formerly known as Trinkaus & Burkhardt, may be made within the next two to three weeks.
ABN Amro last month inked a deal to acquire Fosun’s private bank Hauck Aufhaeuser Lampe for €672m ($730m). This merger would expand ABN Amro’s presence in Germany, the largest wealth management market in Europe.
The purchase of HSBC’s German private bank would increase ABN Amro’s assets under management by €26bn, from approximately €70bn.
HSBC is looking to further reorganise its German operations, and has identified State Street, BNP Paribas, and Caceis as potential buyers for its fund administration arm INKA and custody business.
Moreover, earlier this month, HSBC Holdings, HSBC Bank (China), successfully purchased Citi’s retail wealth management portfolio in China’s mainland.
