Banca Popolare di Milano
Banca Popolare di Milano (BPM) was an Italian cooperative bank founded in 1910, serving individuals, businesses, and institutions primarily in Lombardy. It operated as a mutual bank, emphasizing local community relations and customer ownership. In 2017, BPM merged with Banco Popolare, forming Banco BPM, Italy’s third-largest banking group. This consolidation aimed to strengthen financial stability, expand services, and improve competitiveness. BPM played a key role in regional development, offering a range of banking and financial products. Today, Banco BPM continues its legacy, maintaining a focus on local engagement and personalized banking solutions within a larger, more diversified institution.
