Swiss lenders Acrevis Bank and Regiobank Männedorf (RBM) have agreed to merge, with acrevis Bank absorbing RBM in a transaction valued at SFr 25.8m ($35.2m).
As part of the arrangement, acrevis Bank will conduct a 1:5 stock split, with existing acrevis shareholders receiving five shares for each one they currently hold.
RBM shareholders will receive 17 post-split acrevis shares per RBM share plus a cash payment of SFr 200.
This offer marks a 29.9% premium over RBM’s volume-weighted average share price over the past 60 trading days.
After the merger, RBM will be integrated as a branch under the new name “acrevis Bank Männedorf”.
The Männedorf location and all current employees are expected to be retained.
RBM currently employs 11 staff and manages SFr 439.7m in total assets (mid-2025 figures). Acrevis Bank, with its headquarters in St. Gallen, holds SFr 5.1bn in assets and employs around 190 people across eight locations.
The merger is subject to approval by both banks’ shareholders and regulatory authorities, including FINMA.
Completion of the deal is targeted for mid-year.
The transaction will be financed primarily through a capital increase by acrevis Bank.
The goal is to bring together the capabilities of both banks and continue their development as part of acrevis Bank.
Through the merger, RBM will become part of a larger organisation while keeping its Männedorf branch in operation.
