Bank

After 1990s Italian banking reform, the saving bank (Italian: Cassa di Risparmio) of Pisa, Florence, Livorno, Lucca, Pistoia, San Miniato as well as Banca del Monte di Lucca, formed a loose bank union: Holding Casse Toscane (literally Tuscan saving banks ). In 1996, CR Pisa, Livorno, Lucca and Banca Monte Lucca quit the union and formed Holding Casse del Tirreno (literally Tyrrhenian saving banks).[1] In 1999, CR Pisa, Livorno and Lucca were acquired by Banca Popolare di Lodi. In 2000 CR Pisa had 59 branches. At that time Casse del Tirreno owned 61.69% shares of CR Pisa SpA. Istituto di Credito delle Casse di Risparmio Italiane acted as a intermediate holding company (ICCRI, a subsidiary of Bipielle Partecipazioni, another intermediate holding company) that owned 50.01% Casse del Tirreno. However, CR Pisa SpA also owned 1.35% of Casse del Tirreno.[2] In 2001 Casse del Tirreno was absorbed into ICCRI – Banca Federale Europea (ex-ICCRI), which hold 61.31% shares; Bipielle Partecipazioni owned 12.97% of CR Pisa SpA.[3] In 2002 Bipielle Retail became the new intermediate holding company for the 74.28% shares,[4] while the Foundation of CR Pisa owned 25.63%. In 2003, through CR Lucca SpA, Banca Popolare di Lodi completely privatized CR Pisa SpA.[5] The Foundation of CR Pisa owned 7.48% shares of CR Lucca SpA instead. In 2006 CR Pisa SpA was completely absorbed into CR Lucca SpA, which the latter was renamed into CR Lucca, Pisa & Livorno SpA. On 1 July 2006 the Bank Foundation of Pisa owned 6.66% shares of the new entity.[6] The last annual report of CR Pisa SpA shown the bank had a shareholders equity of €504.789 million on 31 December 2005.[7]
