History

[edit]

The second cooperative bank in Italy (the first one was the Banca Popolare di Lodi), was founded in 1865[4] in Milan by Luigi Luzzatti, who later served as the nation's Prime Minister. Luzzatti drew his inspiration from the 'credit associations' developed by Hermann Schulze-Delitzsch in Germany a decade earlier.[5]

BPM has grown considerably since the 1950s by buying interests in other banks such as Banca Popolare di Roma (1924–1957), la Banca Briantea, Banca Agricola Milanese, Banca Popolare Cooperativa Vogherese, Banca Popolare di Bologna e Ferrara, Banca Popolare di Apricena, INA Banca, Cassa di Risparmio di Alessandria, Banca di Legnano and Banca Popolare di Mantova.[citation needed]

In 1999 Banca Popolare di Milano opened an online banking service called WeBank.[citation needed]

BPM was the minority owner of Cassa di Risparmio di Asti and Crediop.[citation needed]

On February 25, 2010, BPM announced the acquisition from Banco Popolare of 30% of Factorit spa for 51 million euros. Factorit is a factoring company that operates in the field of the advance and collection of trade receivables and related services, and is also owned by Banca Popolare di Sondrio (60.5%).[6]

The board of directors of 23 March 2010 approved the sale of the custodian bank activity to Bnp Paribas, generating a capital gain of approximately €50 million.[7]

With the emergence of the economic crisis in Greece, a few days after the downgrading of Greek government bonds by the main rating agencies, on 11 May 2010 BPM announced that its exposure to securities of "PIGS countries" is less than 22 million euros.[8]

On 18 June 2010, the Bank of Italy authorized BPM to buy back from Fondiaria Sai, for 113 million euros, the 51% stake held by Milano Assicurazioni in Bipiemme Vita.[9]

After the go-ahead from the Bank of Italy in November 2009,[10] on 25 June 2010 BPM formally inaugurated ProFamily,[11] a new company specializing in consumer credit.

On 20 July 2010, BPM announced that it had entered into an alliance agreement with Monte dei Paschi di Siena and Clessidra Sgr to combine Anima Sgr with Prima Sgr and set up a new independent operator in asset management. The resulting entity is Anima Holding.[12]

As a subsidiary of Banco BPM

The shareholders of Banco BPM would be composed of former shareholders of Banco Popolare and BPM in a proposed ratio of 54.626–45.374%.[14] After the capital increase of Banco Popolare in mid-2016, the final exchange ratio would be 1 share of Banco Popolare to 1 share of Banco BPM, as well as 6.386 share of Banca Popolare di Milano to 1 share of Banco BPM.[15]
