ABN Amro has been in exclusive talks about a takeover deal with Britain's Barclays Bank for the last three weeks, but analysts have suggested that other groups might be able to pay more if parts of ABN could be divested. "It might be that a solid bank takes over and decides to restructure," said Nout Wellink, the president of the Dutch central bank, which regulates the Dutch banking market. "Well, let them come to the supervisor, and we will look at it, and when it looks fine there will be no problem whatsoever."
