COMMERZBANK AG executives and investors rejected a takeover bid from UNICREDIT SPA during an annual meeting on May 20. The rejection follows a months-long struggle after the bank from Italy launched its bid in April. A successful merger would create a cross-border banking giant, but internal resistance in Germany threatens the deal's execution.
