CMB falls on stake deal

China Merchants Bank fell in Shanghai trading yesterday after it said Chinese insurer Anbang Insurance Group bought additional shares worth 13.7 billion yuan (US$2.3 billion) in block trades on Monday.

Anbang bought an extra 1.13 billion Shanghai-traded shares of Shenzhen-based CMB at an average price of 12.07 yuan each, said a CMB filing to the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

Anbang now holds about 5 percent of the total share capital of CMB, becoming the fourth-biggest shareholder of the country’s sixth-biggest lender.

CMB shed 0.63 percent to 11.02 yuan in Shanghai yesterday.

China International Capital Corp, the country’s largest investment bank, said in a report yesterday that Anbang may continue to raise its stake in CMB for a seat on the bank’s board.

Anbang raised its stake in CMB from 1.57 percent to 2.79 percent during the third quarter of last year.
