What Banco BPM does

Italy's third-largest bank by branches, offering retail, corporate and investment banking, insurance and leasing, formed from a 2017 merger.

Earns mainly from lending: interest on loans to Italian households and companies above deposit costs, with fees from asset management, insurance and payments. It took over asset manager Anima in 2025, adding fee income, and France's Crédit Agricole is its largest shareholder.

In one line: An Italian regional bank, like a Fifth Third/Huntington Bancshares.

What could go right

What could go wrong
