Shares in Spanish lender Banco de Sabadell SA rose Monday after its British retail-bank business caught the eye of a competitor.

西班牙銀行Banco de Sabadell SA股價週一上漲,此前其英國零售銀行業務吸引了競爭對手的目光。

Banco de Sabadell was approached by the U.K.'s Co-Operative Bank PLC this weekend over a potential 1 billion pounds ($1.37 billion) acquisition of its subsidiary TSB Banking Group, a company spokesman said Monday. Sabadell rejected the offer and the two companies aren't in talks, the spokesman said.

英國合作銀行(Co-operative Bank PLC)發言人週一説,英國合作銀行(Co-operative Bank PLC)上週末接洽了薩巴德爾銀行(Banco De Sabadell),希望以10億英鎊(合13.7億美元)收購其子公司TSB Banking Group。這位發言人説,薩巴德爾銀行拒絕了這一提議,兩家公司沒有進行談判。

At 1324 GMT, shares in Sabadell traded 4.6% higher at EUR0.68.

格林威治時間1324時,Sabadell的股價上漲4.6%,至0.68歐元。

Confirming weekend reports, Co-Op Bank said earlier on Monday that it sent a letter to Sabadell over a potential acquisition of TSB. Sky News reported Sunday that the U.K. bank was willing to pay more than GBP1 billion for the business.

週一早些時候,Co-Op Bank證實了週末的報道,稱已就可能收購TSB一事致函Sabadell。天空新聞(Sky News)週日報道稱,這家英國銀行願意為這項業務支付超過110億英鎊的價格。

The approach for TSB vindicates Sabadell's decision to hold on to the U.K. business and restructure it in house, Citi analysts said in a note. Just last year, when Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA made an offer for Sabadell, it assigned an implied zero value to TSB, they noted.

花旗分析師在一份報告中説,對TSB的收購證明了Sabadell保留英國業務並在內部重組的決定是正確的。他們指出,就在去年,當畢爾巴鄂比茲卡亞銀行(Banco Bilbao Vizcaya阿根廷SA)對Sabadell提出收購要約時,它為TSB指定了隱含的零值。
