noch weiß keiner, was bei der Kapitalerhöhung heraus kommen wird und was das für die Altaktionäre bedeuten wird. Im Grunde nichts, was nicht vorher bekannt gewesen ist.
hier noch ne recht aktuelle Reutersmeldung, die gehen dort von einer Teilverstaatlichung aus:

(Adds details, BES spokesman)
Aug 1 (Reuters) - Portuguese authorities are considering the use of public funds to shore up Banco Espirito Santo's capital, complementing new money from investors, people close to the process said on Friday.
One source said BES will likely need 3 billion euros ($4 billion) after a catastrophic 3.6 billion euro half-year loss posted on Wednesday wiped out its capital buffers and reduced its solvency ratio below that required by the Bank of Portugal.
Following the bigger than expected losses it may be hard to avoid a "mixed solution" of using private capital and public funds to recapitalise the country's largest listed bank, two sources said. The solution is still being prepared, they said.
The Bank of Portugal has previously said it prefers a market solution, but has a bank recapitalisation line available to guarantee the BES' solvency.
A BES spokesman would not comment, referring to chief executive Vitor Bento's statement on Wednesday. He said that the bank still expected to raise capital from investors after some showed interest in taking significant stakes in BES.
Government and central bank officials would not comment.
Investors began dumping the shares after Wednesday's revelations of massive losses and potential illegal activity, sending the shares down 42 percent on Thursday and another 40 percent on Friday.
The sharp fall in BES's market value made it far less likely that the bank's could raise capital without seeking state aid.
A third source said the Portuguese government last week liaised with the European Central Bank to reassure them that it still has access to 6.4 billion euros to recapitalise its banks, if needed. The ECB will take over supervising large lenders across the euro zone on Nov 4.
