Italian lender Banco BPM on Tuesday said the unexpected takeover offer by domestic rival UniCredit does not reflect its profitability and could reduce its legal autonomy.

The 10 billion-euro ($10.52 billion) bid presented by UniCredit on Monday was not previously agreed and was delivered on “unusual” terms, the Banco BPM board of directors said in a CNBC-translated statement.

It also failed to reflect Banco BPM’s profitability and potential for further value creation, the board added.

CNBC has reached out to UniCredit for comment.
