History

edit

The bank was found in 1840 as Cassa di Risparmio di Rimini (Carim in short). Due to Legge Amato [it], the bank was split into a società per azioni (company limited by shares) and a banking foundation (Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Rimini).[2] In 2013 the bank absorbed Banca Etica Adriatica, a bank specialise in ethical banking. The bank had a market share of 22.01% in deposits in the Province of Rimini .

In 2016, the plan to recapitalize €100 million was announced.[3] As a consequence of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process of the Bank of Italy, the capital ratios requirement on Carim was increased to 7.80% (CET1), 9.30% (Tier 1) and 11.30% (Total) respectively, making the bank had to recapitalise.[4] The bank Tier 1 Capital Ratio and Total Capital Ratio stood at 8.53% and 10.86% at 31 December 2015.[5]

On 13 September 2016 the ordinary shareholders' meeting of the bank approved the proposal of suing the former management team of the bank for faults during 2007 to 2010.[6]

In 2017 it was announced that Crédit Agricole Italia has been interested to acquire the bank, which a process of due diligence was started in the same year. A contract was signed on 29 September, with Fondo Interbancario di Tutela dei Depositi voluntary scheme, which was responsible to recapitalize and clean up the non-performing loans before handover.[7]
