Spanish Court Orders Santander To Pay UniCredit CEO $77 Million For Breach Of Contract UniCredit CEO Andrea Orcel is already riding high as investors have embraced his turnaround strategy for the troubled Italian lender (a strategy that entails returning billions of euros in profits to shareholders of Italy''s largest bank over the coming years). The bank''s shares were among the few European banking stocks to trade in the green on Friday. But that''s not the only reason for Orcel, who is well on his way to becoming one of Europe''s most celebrated bankers, to celebrate heading into the weekend. Orcel, a European banker of Italian origin, has just won a major court victory against Banco Santander after a Spanish court ruled on Friday that Santander must shell out 68 million euros ($77 million) to Orcel for breaking a contract to bring him on as CEO . Fortunately for him, Orcel swiftly bounced back after being dumped by Santander by taking the top job at Unicredit. But, as the court decided, the fact that Orcel found another job doesn''t excuse Santander from its contractual obligations.
