BNP Paribas CFO呼吁巩固欧洲国内银行,以提高与美国和亚洲银行的竞争力。 
BNP Paribas CFO calls for domestic European bank consolidation to improve competitiveness vs US and Asian banks.
BNP Paribas CFO Lars Machenil认为,欧洲银行过剩,妨碍了其对抗美国和亚洲公司的竞争力。 BNP Paribas CFO Lars Machenil argues that Europe has an excess of banks, hindering its competitiveness against U.S. and Asian firms. 他主张通过国内合并来争取更大的银行冠军,从统一信贷公司增加Commerzbank的股份和BBVA对Banco Sabadell银行的追逐中可以看出这一点。 He advocates for larger banking champions through domestic consolidation, as seen in UniCredit's stake increase in Commerzbank and BBVA's pursuit of Banco Sabadell. 然而,他指出,由于制度和产品不同,跨界一体化仍然具有挑战性,使一体化“距离更远一点”。 However, he notes that cross-border integration remains challenging due to differing systems and products, making it "still a bit further away."
