Itaú calls extraordinary assembly for share issuance

Banco Itaú has called its shareholders to an extraordinary assembly on December 30 to approve the issuance of ordinary shares without preemptive rights. This meeting, announced by Colombia's Superintendencia Financiera, will take place at the bank's main headquarters in Bogotá. The aim is to support partners in Chile and Itaú Holding Colombia S.A.S.

Colombia's Superintendencia Financiera announced Banco Itaú's call for an extraordinary shareholders' assembly, scheduled for December 30 at 8:00 a.m. The meeting will discuss and approve the issuance of ordinary shares without preemptive rights execution, aimed at supporting key partners such as those in Chile and Itaú Holding Colombia S.A.S.

The assembly will occur at the bank's main building, located at Carrera 7ª No. 99-53, in Bogotá. Shareholders can attend in person or virtually. Itaú has stated that all relevant documents, including the Social Statutes, the Good Governance Code, and participation rules—such as voting, granting powers, and accessing the session—will be available on its website.

This announcement comes amid the recent agreement between Banco de Bogotá and Itaú for the acquisition of the latter's retail banking in Colombia and Panama. The deal involves transferring at least 267,000 clients, with approximately $6.5 trillion in consumer and housing loans, and $4.1 trillion in deposits. The operation aims to bolster Banco de Bogotá's position in the local market.
