Banca Monte Parma is an Italian regional bank, active in the provinces of Parma, Piacenza and Reggio-Emilia.

History

The bank was founded in Parma in 1488 as Mons Pietatis Almae Civitatis Parmae by Bernardine of Feltre, in order to combat usury – he was known for his violent anti-Judaism. This makes it one of the oldest banks in the world.

Operations

In 1991, in order to comply with new Italian banking regulations, the company became a joint-stock company and a subsidiary of Fondazione Monte di Parma (Fondazione Monteparma).[2]

Cariplo as minority shareholder

From 1994 to 1999, Cassa di Risparmio delle Provincie Lombarde (Cariplo) owned 20.5% of Banca Monte Parma with the rest held by the foundation. Cariplo was a wholly owned subsidiary of Banca Intesa since 1998.[3]

At the year end of 2000, the foundation held 50.47% shares, followed by Banca MPS for 41%, its subsidiary "Comp. di Assicur. Monte Paschi Vita" for 7.72% (in 2001 8.26% ) and the rest held by others.[5][6] In 2007, Banca MPS consolidated its ownership to held by Banca MPS SpA only, for 49.27%.[7]

In 2008, Banca MPS sold all its ownership. The foundation increased its ownership ratio to 68.74%, as well as the introduction of Fondazione di Piacenza e Vigevano (who lost the ownership on Cassa di Risparmio di Piacenza e Vigevano)[8] and Banca Sella Holding, for 15% and 10% respectively.[9] CBA Vita and HDI Assicurazioni both held 3%.[9] In the next year Fondazione di Piacenza e Vigevano increased to 18% ownership, with Banca Sella reduced to 4.597%, as well as HDI reduced to 2.2% and introduction of new investor Compagnia Generale Immobiliare Srl ("CGI" in short) for 3%.[10] The ratio remain almost constant until the takeover of Intesa Sanpaolo on 26 July 2011.
