BPCE, which oversees the Caisses d'Epargne, Banques Populaires and Natixis, launched on June 4 a takeover bid to buy the 29% of Natixis' capital listed on the stock exchange.
LE FIGARO.- The takeover bid for Natixis will end on July 1.
It will be followed by delisting if BPCE manages to hold at least 90%.

There will be no second offer or price increase.
