Biggest ever banking M&A deal? SMBC closer to taking control of Yes Bank

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp (SMBC) is nearing a deal to acquire a major stake in Yes Bank, potentially triggering an open offer for an additional 26% stake and making SMBC the largest shareholder. This move follows Yes Bank's 2020 rescue and would be India's largest M&A deal for SMBC.
