Analysts have said Qatar National Bank may seek to acquire one Turkey's top 10 lenders, Bloomberg has reported. "QNB wants a controlling stake in Turkey and there's no other bank than Finansbank at the moment where it could get that," Ovunc Gursoy, analyst at Yapi Kredi Yatirim Menkul Degerler, a broker owned by Italy's UniCredit, told the news service. "NBG could sell a majority stake due to its capital needs." Finansbank, owned by National Bank of Greece (NBG), is Turkey's eighth-biggest bank.
