History

Banca Apulia S.p.A. was found 1924 as Banco di Torremaggiore. The bank later became Banco di Torremaggiore e San Severo and then Banca della Capitanata. In 1996 the bank was renamed as Banca Apulia[2] after absorbing Banca Agricola Salentina.

In 2005 the bank had a market share of lending in Apulia for 5.47%, primary direct deposits for 4.42% and 2.32% in terms of branches, according to Banca d'Italia.[3]

In 2008 the bank was controlled by Finanziaria Capitanata (52.54% stake).[4]

On 13 January 2010 Veneto Banca acquired 42.394% stake in the bank[5][6] from Finanziaria Capitanata and other shareholders.[7] In mid-2010 Banca Meridiana, a subsidiary of Veneto Banca, was absorbed by Banca Apulia.[8] As at 31 December 2010 Veneto Banca owned 50.787% stake. (increased to 63.747% in 2011 and 70.105% in 2012)[9][10][11] After the deals, Finanziaria Capitanata remain as a minority owner for 25.85% stake.[9]

In 2012 Veneto Banca and BancApulia purchased the minority stake of Apulia Prontoprestito, a subsidiary of BancApulia, from HDI Assicurazioni and other shareholders from Borsa Italiana. After the deal Vento Banca owned 13.079%[11] and BancApulia owned 86.921%. The subsidiary was specialising in salary-backed loans.

On 26 June 2017, as part of a government funded bail-out of depositors and bail-in of the investors of Veneto Banca, Intesa Sanpaolo, the second largest bank of Italy by total assets, acquired some good assets of Veneto Banca as well as BancApulia.[12]

In January 2019, Intesa Sanpaolo deposited a plan of merger by incorporation of Banca Apulia into the company.[13]
