Veneto Banca S.p.A. is a former Italian bank headquartered in Montebelluna, Italy and currently a wind-down unit.
[3] A contract to acquire the "good bank" (excluding Banca Intermobiliare) was signed on 26 June, after the European Commission approved the state aid of Italy to Intesa Sanpaolo for increasing the capital ratio of the "good bank" on 25 June.
An intense development stage starts in 2000, with the expansion in North-West and Southern Italy and the acquiring of banks in Eastern Europe.
[6] Due to Decree-Law N°3/2015, the bank changed from a cooperative limited partnership (Italian: Società cooperativa per Azioni) to Società per Azioni (company limited by shares) in December 2015, affecting the calculation of voting rights (every shareholders had one vote regardless how many shares he had in cooperative society).
[7] The Decree-Law required People's Bank with more than €8 billion total assets, had to registered as limited company instead.
[10] The stock market listing failed to generate interest, with only one institutional investor[citation needed] taking up the offer and existing shareholders buying just 2.2%[11] (some of them excised rights of withdrew at a later time).
[14] On 2 February 2017 the bank issued €3.5 billion bond with state-guarantee, which would matured in 2019 and 2020 respectively, in order to improve its capital base.
[21] After deducting the contribution from Atlante, the bank seek investor including the government for the remaining €2.472 billion shortfall.
If excluding the deposit of Atlante for the future capital increase, despite the drop on risk-weighed assets, the greater drop in the capital making the bank had a CET1 ratio (at group level) of just 6.39%, even worse than the level in December 2015 due to heavy loan write-down.
[26] However, Intesa also announced that the bank would set up a fund to repaid the bonds that were held by small investors.
