Liechtensteinische Landesbank (LLB) has completed the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Austria’s Semper Constantia Privatbank.
The deal, valued at around €185m, was first announced in December 2017.
As per the agreed terms of the transaction, two key Semper shareholders secured a stake of around 6% in LLB along with voting rights.
LLB already operates in Austria, which is one of its three home markets apart from Liechtenstein and Switzerland.
The bank has been present in Vienna since 2009 through its unit Liechtensteinische Landesbank (Osterreich), which employs 50 staff.
Semper Constantia will merge with LLB Osterreich to create a new asset manager called Liechtensteinische Landesbank (Osterreich) with more than €18bn in assets. The consolidation is slated to occur in September this year.
