History
Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia was found in 1936 by the merger of Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia (found 1831) and Pescia (1840). The bank also absorbed Banca di Pistoia in 1932, and Pistoia Mount of Piety in 1937.[2] In June 1992, due to Legge Amato, the bank was split into a S.p.A. (private limited company), and a non-profit organization (Ente Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia, which was renamed to Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia in late 1990s).[3] Soon after, along with other Tuscan banks: the saving bank (Italian: Cassa di Risparmio) of Florence, Livorno, Lucca, Pisa, San Miniato as well as Banca del Monte di Lucca, formed a loose bank union: Holding Casse Toscane (literally Tuscan saving banks ).[4] In 1996 CR Lucca, Livorno and Pisa, as well as Banca del Monte di Lucca, formed their own union, leaving Florence and Pistoia in Casse Toscane.[4] In the same year San Miniato also withdrew.[5]
In 1997 51% shares of the S.p.A. was acquired by Florence Saving Bank (Banca Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze) from Casse Toscane (which was owned by the foundations of the saving bank of Florence and Pistoia only), with CR Pistoia foundation retained a minority interests of 31.30% in the bank.[5] The foundation also owned 3.95% shares of Banca CR Firenze (as of 31 December 2000), due to the acquisition.[6] The Saving bank of Pistoia and Pescia followed Banca CR Firenze merged into bank group Intesa Sanpaolo in 2007. In 2002, the bank renamed into Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e della Lucchesia, as the branches of the bank was extended from the Province of Pistoia to the Province of Lucca. As of 31 December 2014, the bank foundation held B shares of the bank, which had more rights than ordinate shares. The foundation also owned 0.01413% shares of Intesa Sanpaolo.[7]
