The Hypo Group Alpe Adria (HGAA) is an Austrian banking group with numerous cross-border activities in the Alps-Adriatic region. The group is active in Austria, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Republic of Macedonia, Bulgaria, Hungary and Ukraine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Group Structure: Material Subsidiaries as of 31.12.2012 )〕 == History == Hypo Alpe Adria has been present in the market of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) since 2001, when it took over Auro Bank Mostar, which thereafter was operating under the name of Hypo Alpe-Adria-Bank d.d. Mostar. A year after, Hypo Alpe Adria took over Kristal Bank Banja Luka, which has been operating under the name of Hypo Alpe-Adria-Bank a.d. Banja Luka since 2003. In May 2007 the BayernLB bought 50% plus one share (controlling stake) of HGAA for 1.63 billion Euros. On 14 December 2009, BayernLB, Kärntner Landesholding and Grazer Wechselseitige Versicherung sold their stakes in the bank to the Austrian government for 1 Euro each.〔 〕 The bank was nationalised by the Austrian government to avert a bank collapse.〔(Reuters: "Austria nationalises ailing Hypo" )〕 It is expected that between 13 and 19 billion Euros of outstanding loans will never be paid back; to avoid bankruptcy, the Austrian taxpayers will have to cover this loss. 〔 〕 The headquarters, which accounts for around 500 employees, is located in Klagenfurt, Austria and is responsible for controlling the subsidiary banks in Austria, Italy and South-Eastern Europe as well as those markets from which the bank is currently withdrawing (wind-down markets). As of February 2014, the HGAA situation was unsolved,〔(bloomberg.com: "Hypo Alpe Debt Cut Four Steps as a kind of Insolvency Not Ruled Out" 15 Feb 2014 )〕 causing Chancellor Werner Faymann to warn that its failure would be comparable to the 1931 Creditanstalt event.〔(bloomberg.com: " Faymann Evokes 1931 Austria Creditanstalt Crash on Hypo Alpe" 17 Feb 2014 )〕 In March 2014, the Austrian government decided to split HGAA into a Balkans banking unit, an Italian business and a bad bank, Heta Asset Resolution. The Balkans unit is to be sold in 2015 to Advent International (80%) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (20%). It was intended to wind down Heta Asset Resolution over a period of years. One consequence of the collapse of Hypo Alpe-Adria-Bank International AG is that Austria has agreed to pay 1.23 billion euros ($1.36 billion) to the German state of Bavaria.〔Weber, Webb & Comfort, "Austria to Pay Bavaria 1.2 Billion Euros in Heta Deal", Bloomberg Business, 7 July 2015. (Retrieved 10 July 2015). http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-07-07/austria-to-pay-bavaria-1-2-billion-euros-in-heta-deal〕 On 1 March 2015 the Financial Market Authority of Austria imposed a moratorium on debt and interest payments by Heta Asset Resolution on unguaranteed debt, after an audit found that it had a capital shortfall of up to 7.6 billion euros. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hypo Group Alpe Adria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
