Banca Monte Parma was an Italian regional bank, active in the provinces of Parma, Piacenza and Reggio-Emilia. In mid-2015 it was absorbed into the parent company.
History
[edit]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
[edit]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
[edit]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]
Foundation & Banca MPS joint venture
[edit]In August 1999 Banca Intesa sold all shares it held to Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena.[4] Banca also acquired shares from the foundation directly. At the year end of 2000, the foundation held 50.47% shares, followed by Banca MPS for 41%, its subsidiary "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 be held by Banca MPS SpA only, for 49.27%.[7]
Independent again
[edit]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 (a subsidiary of Banca Sella Holding) 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 S.r.l. ("CGI" in short) for 3%.[10][11] The ratio remain almost constant until the takeover of Intesa Sanpaolo on 26 July 2011.
Intesa Sanpaolo era
[edit]On 26 July 2011 Intesa Sanpaolo acquired all shares from Banca Sella Holding, CBA Vita and HDI Assicurazioni, as well as part of the shares from Fondazione Monteparma, Fondazione di Piacenza e Vigevano and CGI. The new ownership became Intesa Sanpaolo 60.798%, Fondazione Monte di Parma 20.987%, Fondazione di Piacenza e Vigevano 15.214%, CGI 2.536%.[12]
In 2012 Intesa Sanpaolo further increased to 78.617% from recapitalization, as well as the foundations both reduced to 10% each and CGI 1.254%.[13]
The bank was a member of the Euro Banking Association,[14] however it is no longer a member after it became a subsidiary.[15]
On 22 December 2014 Intesa Sanpaolo acquired the 20% from the foundations;[16] At the end of 2014 financial year Intesa Sanpaolo was the major shareholder of Banca Monte Parma for 98.62%.[17]
In mid-2015 the bank was absorbed into Intesa Sanpaolo.
Sponsorship
[edit]The bank was the principal sponsor of Serie A football team Parma F.C. [citation needed] The bank also owned 20% shares of "Eventi Sportivi S.p.A.", the parent company of Parma FC SpA in 2008 (increased from 10%[18] after recapitalization from €3m to €6m),[19] but diluted back to 5% in 2009,[20] followed by 4.2% in 2011.[21] As of 2014 financial year, the bank still retained the shares.[1]
