Commerzbank Shareholders Approve Key Agenda Items at AGM

The Annual General Meeting of Commerzbank saw shareholders approve all agenda items with overwhelming support. A dividend of €1.10 per share was endorsed, marking a significant increase from the previous year's €0.65 per share. This decision aligns with the bank's "Momentum 2030" strategy, alongside authorizations for further share buybacks.

The total dividend payout, around €1.2 billion combined with prior share buybacks, amounts to approximately €2.7 billion returned to shareholders for the 2025 financial year. This figure represents the entirety of the net result before restructuring expenses, with share buybacks requiring European Central Bank approval.

Key agenda items also included the approval of board actions and remuneration reports, receiving majority support from shareholders. These decisions underscore Commerzbank's commitment to increasing capital return while growing dividend share to at least 50% in coming years.
