History
Predecessors
The predecessor of Fineco was a financial institution known as GI-FIN S.r.l. in 1982 and then GI-FIN S.p.A. from October 1982.[6] In 1983, the institution was incorporated as Istituto per le Cessioni del Quinto S.p.A. (ICQ),[6] which later known as Novara ICQ S.p.A.[7]: 665 and then ICQ Banca Cisalpina S.p.A..[6][8] ICQ Banca Cisalpina was a subsidiary of Banca Popolare di Novara (BP Novara).[6] In 1990–91, BP Novara owned 51.21% shares of ICQ Banca Cisalpina.[7]: 665 [9]: 126 ICQ Banca Cisalpina was also a listed company, which was delisted in 1996 by its new owner Banca Popolare di Brescia (Bipop).[10][11]
In 1999, Bipop merged with Cassa di Risparmio di Reggio Emilia (Carire) to form Bipop Carire.[6] As of 1990, Banca Popolare di Brescia also partially owned the namesakes Fin-Eco Leasing (33.33%) and Fin-Eco Factoring (30%).[9]: 125 As of 1994, Bipop owned the aforementioned companies via an intermediate holding company Fin-Eco Holding.[12] The Holding also owned another subsidiary Fin-Eco SIM.[12] Bipop also attempted to acquire another namesake Cisalpina Gestioni in 1994.[12]
After the 1999 merger, the banking group re-organized ICQ Banca Cisalpina as well as Fin-Eco Leasing and Fin-Eco Factoring.[13]
FinecoBank
ICQ Banca Cisalpina was renamed to "Fin-Eco Banca ICQ S.p.A." (Banca Fin-Eco in short) in 1999,[6] which was considered as the launch date of the current Fineco.[14][15] In 2002, Bipop Carire and Fineco became part of Capitalia banking group.[16] In 2007, Capitalia was absorbed into UniCredit banking group, while Fineco was kept as a separate subsidiary.
In 2014 FinecoBank started its initial public offering.[14] In 2016 UniCredit sold a further 30% shares to public market.[17][18][19] In May 2019, UniCredit sold another 17% shares of FinecoBank.[1] As UniCredit owned 18% shares of FinecoBank after the transaction, FinecoBank is no longer an associate company of UniCredit.[20]
In 2020, Fineco decided to spend 7 million euros on a marketing campaign to grow its services in UK,[21] whose launch was authorised earlier in the same year.[22]
FinecoBank Banca Fineco serves customers in the United Kingdom and Italy.[23]
UniCredit sold its remaining stake in FinecoBank in 2019.[24]
