  • Bank of Valletta plc issued an announcement with reference to the filed proceedings against Italy before the European Courts of Human Rights (ECHR) in which the bank complained that Italian law does not provide a remedy for its fair hearing concerns in respect of the claim made by the curators in the bankruptcy of the Deiulemar Group.
    • The bank reiterates that the curators’ claim is entirely without any legal or factual basis, as has been unequivocally confirmed by opinions provided by independent legal experts.
    • The ECHR has decided that the bank’s application is, at this stage of the proceedings, inadmissible. The basis of the ECHR’s decision is that the Bank still has remedies to exhaust in Italy regarding its fair hearing concerns, and not because it considered the Bank’s complaint unmeritorious.
