The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a catalyst for selective catalytic reduction comprising • (i) preparing a mixture comprising a metal-organic framework material comprising an ion of a metal or metalloid selected from groups 2-5, groups 7-9, and groups 11-14 of the Periodic Table of the Elements, and at least one at least monodentate organic compound, a zeolitic material containing a metal as a non-framework element, optionally a solvent system, and optionally a pasting agent, • (ii) calcining of the mixture obtained in (i); and further relates to a catalyst per se comprising a composite material containing an amorphous mesoporous metal and/or metalloid oxide and a zeolitic material, wherein the zeolitic material contains a metal as non-framework element, as well as to the use of said catalyst.
