Aldermore is the latest suitor to join the battle for The Co-operative Bank.<\/p>\n

The mid-sized consumer and business lender, which is owned by South Africa\u2019s FirstRand Group, is in talks with investment bankers on the size and structure of a potential takeover deal, according to Sky News.<\/p>\n

Rival Shawbrook Group is understood to have approached The Co-Op Bank a month ago about a merger that valued it at around \u00a3800m.<\/p>\n

Last week The Co-op Bank\u2019s owners set an early October deadline for non-binding bids \u2013 kicking off a long-awaited sale process for the High Street bank. Sources suggested Aldermore plans to table a bid ahead of this deadline.<\/p>\n

The Co-Op Bank more than quadrupled its profit in 2022 to \u00a3132.6m<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
