Italy's UniCredit said on Saturday it had reached a deal with Turkey's Koc Holding to cut its stake in Yapi Kredi Bank to below 32% as part of moves to simplify its shareholding structure and bolster capital.
Yapi Kredi Bank is Turkey's third largest bank.
UniCredit, which will book charges of around 1 billion euros (£859 million), said the overall impact of the deal for the bank would be virtually nil in terms of cash.
It said it expected its group CET 1 ratio - an indicator of financial health - to be lifted by an overall mid-single-digit basis point.
Completion of the transaction is expected in the first half of next year, UniCredit said.
