Itau Unibanco Holding S.A.(*) Announcement to the Market
SAO PAULO, May 18 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Standardization of Trading Symbols - ITUB
As from May 2009, the New York Stock Exchange has authorized listed
companies to use four letters in their trading symbols (denominated
"tickers"). In the light of this decision, Itau Unibanco Holding S.A.
decided to standardize the "tickers" on all the stock exchanges where it
is listed.
This measure facilitates comparability in the three capital markets
in which the company's securities are negotiated and better reflects the
merger
between Itau and Unibanco.
Itau Unibanco Holding S.A. therefore announces to the market that all
trading symbols are to be changed simultaneously on all stock exchanges
on which the company's securities are negotiated, as follows:
Up to May 19 As from May 20
(inclusive)
Non-voting Shares - BM&FBovespa (Brazil) ITAU4 ITUB4
Common Shares - BM&FBovespa (Brazil) ITAU3 ITUB3
ADR's - NYSE (USA) ITU ITUB
Cedear's - Merval (Argentina) ITAU4 ITUB4
