Lloyds Banking Group has not been in contact with major investors over a potential rights issue to reduce its dependence on a government-backed insurance scheme for bad loans, a top 15 shareholder told Reuters.
The investor, who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the issue, said: "Lloyds has not been in contact with any of the major shareholders. Markets are a little sceptical that Lloyds is being too optimistic."
The Guardian newspaper said on Wednesday that "important City shareholders" would support a plan by the bank to raise 10 billion pounds ($16.32 billion).
A source familiar with the situation said separately that Lloyds was not actively canvassing shareholders.
Lloyds declined to comment.
