On 29 November 2024, Cera and KBC Ancora – along with MRBB and the Other Stable Shareholders – confirmed that they would extend their agreement to act in concert in relation to KBC Group NV for a further 10 years. This extension of the syndicate agreement officially entered into effect on 1 December. From now on, the aggregate number of shares held by Cera, KBC Ancora, MRBB and the Other Stable Shareholders will represent 41,75% of all KBC Group shares. By making this move, these shareholders will ensure continued shareholder stability and support the further development of the KBC group.
