In other news, the government wants to buy 25% of Commerzbank (and thus, basically, a veto right) at well over the current market rate.

Like, 8 times the (pre-announcement) market rate. Part of that money coming from the earlier bailout package.

I would like to point out here that Commerzbank was (wholly) nationalized to keep it from going under in 1932. And sold off again in 1937. Grin
