Spain's Santander SA (STD) is seeking to divest some $10 billion in risk-weighted assets held by Sovereign Bancorp Inc. (SOV) and plans writedowns of about $2 billion at the U.S.-based lender if the Spanish banking giant completes its takeover, Santander Chairman Emilio Botin said Monday.

Botin told shareholders at an extraordinary meeting to approve Santander's share issue to buy the 75% of Sovereign it doesn't already own that the U.S. bank is expected to contribute $750 million in profits by 2011.

Botin said the planned asset divestiture and writedowns at Sovereign seek to put the bank's risk management policies closer in line with those of Santander.
