DM Holdings-Led Consortium Signals Significant Stake Acquisition in Bank Makramah]
Bank Makramah Limited (PSX: BML) has received a firm intention from a consortium led by DM Holdings Limited regarding the acquisition of a substantial stake in the bank, potentially exceeding thresholds set under Pakistan’s securities regulations.
The bank announced in a filing to the Pakistan Stock Exchange that the proposal was reviewed by its board on June 11, 2026, and comes within the scope of Regulation 5 of the Listed Companies (Substantial Acquisition of Voting Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2017.
The transaction, if finalized, would involve share purchases beyond limits specified under Section 111 of the Securities Act, 2015, thereby triggering mandatory disclosure obligations.
This development reflects growing investor interest in consolidation opportunities within Pakistan’s banking sector, at a time when regulatory pressures and capital restructuring initiatives continue to influence strategic activities.
