The Berlusconi family’s holding company Fininvest said on Monday that the transaction, from which it pocketed 174 million euros ($211 million), was part of a readjustment of its financial investment portfolio.
The ownership of Mediobanca has been in flux since a core of long-term investors in the Milanese bank dissolved, paving the way for eyewear billionaire Leonardo Del Vecchio to emerge as its single biggest shareholder.
