A significant change has taken place in the Hungarian financial and leasing market: Merkantil Bank, part of OTP Group, has signed an agreement for the full acquisition of Business Lease Hungary Kft. As part of the transaction, the bank is acquiring 100 percent of the company's business shares.

The parties have signed a binding agreement regarding the details of the deal. The closing of the transaction is expected following the receipt of the usual regulatory approvals, after which the integration of Business Lease Hungary into the OTP Group can begin.
This deal is an important milestone in the Hungarian leasing market, as the merger of the two companies could open up new opportunities in the field of corporate fleet management. For clients, services are expected to continue without interruption in the future.
