History[edit]

Cassa di Risparmio di Imola was found in 1855[1] in Imola, in the Papal States.

In 1992, due to Legge Amato, the statutory corporation was split into a private limited company and a banking foundation. Casse Emiliano Romagnole was introduced as a minority shareholders for 20% shares.[2] In 1997 the foundation bought back the shares.[3]

Banca Popolare di Lodi[edit]

In 2000, the bank had 29 branches. In the same year, CR Imola became part of Banca Popolare di Lodi (BPL) which owned 62.18% shares indirectly through Bipielle Partecipazioni, Istituto di Credito delle Casse di Risparmio Italiane, Efibanca and Holding Cassa di Risparmio di Imola as sub-holding companies. In 2001, BPL owned 96.95% shares (67.91% through Bipielle Partecipazioni and 29.04% directly).[4] In 2002 CR Imola was merged with Banca Bipielle Romagna to form Banca Bipielle Adriatico. BPL owned 83.10% shares of the subsidiary through sub-holding Bipielle Retail. However, in 2003 the bank was absorbed into BPL. BPL was merged with BPVN to form Banco Popolare. A new subsidiary was incorporated to own part of the former assets of BPL.
