- Monte Paschi has secured a majority stake in Italian lender Mediobanca, cementing a once-unthinkable €16 billion takeover that’s set to reshape Italian finance.

- Saab shares fall as much as 5.7% after Barclays initiated coverage of the Swedish defense company with an underweight rating, saying its stretched valuation and relatively small scale could mean downside to the stock price.
