Commerzbank's strategy 'built on independence' - Orlopp

Commerzbank's new CEO Bettina Orlopp
told employees on her first day in office Tuesday that she would
advocate for a strategy based on the bank's independence.

   
"Our strategy is effective and offers a meaningful value to all
stakeholders.

   
"It is built on the bank's independence", Orlopp said in a video
message.

   
The new CEO also said the German lender is "working tirelessly"
with a team of experts to respond to Italy's second-largest bank
UniCredit which has acquired a 21% stake in Commerzbank, adding,
according to a Bloomberg report, that she understands that "the
current uncertainty is concerning for many of you".
