SUBJECT: Request for Clarifications on news article
Mr. Officer,
1. In reference to news article published on June 18, 2015, in the newspaper VALOR ECONÔMICO, under the headline “Final proposal for HSBC is scheduled for July”, in which there are, respectively, amongst other pieces of information:
Bradesco has made a proposal to buy the Brazilian unit of HSBC, but the final bid (binding offer) will only be made in July, said the Bank CEO, Luiz Carlos Trabuco Cappi, during participation in event in São Paulo.
“We have made an offer and we're analyzing. The final offer will only be made in the month of July, by the timetable set by the seller.” he said. “The size of the check will be decided at the last minute”, said the executive, without giving more details about the transaction.
Trabuco ruled out that the purchase brings worries of Bank concentration. “The Brazilian financial system has never been so concentrated as today and the competition has never been so fierce.”
Last week, the HSBC headoffice issued a notice making it official that it will leave Brazil and Turkey. The bank has decided to focus its operations in Asia and tries to save up to US$ 5 billion in costs until 2017.
