Spain’s BBVA is in advanced talks with Dogus Holding for acquisition of a 14.89% stake in Turkey’s Garanti.

BBVA, which currently holds 25% stake in Garanti, is looking at improving the share to 39.9% through the proposed acquisition.

The Turkish conglomerate Dogus Holding has a 24.2% stake in Garanti at present.

However, BBVA confirmed that even if the acquisition is approved, it would not lead to a mandatory offer to buy out remaining shareholders.

The negotiations have reportedly not been completed yet.

BBVA purchased its initial stake in Garanti in 2010.
