AIK Bank increased its stake in Gorenjska Banka and now holds a controlling 90.11 percent. Earlier this year, AIK said it was willing to pay €298 for each of the remaining 86,611 shares as part of its complete takeover bid of Slovenia’s Gorenjska. Nearly 300 shareholders accepted AIK’s offer. “Gorenjska Banka gets a strategic partner who has expressed support for the future development of the lender. With this, we are establishing a new banking group which will have an important role in Slovenia and the region in the future,” said Mario Henjak, president of Gorenjska Banka.
