Anas Abuzaakouk, Chief Executive Officer of BAWAG Group AG, bought 3,800 shares of the bank at an aggregated average price of 164.40 on the Vienna Stock Exchange. The trade took place on 19 October 2026. The notice under Article 19 of the MAR regulation was distributed by pressetext, based on information from the company itself.
The filing shows that 300 shares were bought at 163.20 and 3,500 shares at 164.50. Article 19 MAR requires senior executives and their close associates to disclose such transactions.
why it matters
Filings like this are routine. The size of the purchase is small and does not change the picture for the bank, though insider buying by a chief executive is sometimes read as a sign of confidence in the business.
