Macro Bansud Shows Willing

Meanwhile in Argentina Macro Bansud, one of the country’s highest-growth banks, has declared a keen interest in bidding for Rosario-based Nuevo Banco Bisel, under administration by state-run Banco Nación since 2002. Bisel, formerly a subsidiary of French bank Crédit Agricole, is the country’s 19th largest bank in terms of deposits. Macro Bansud recently bought two banks in the northwestern province of Tucumán, paying just over $27 million.
