History
Cassa di Risparmio di Ferrara
Found in 1838 by Count Alessandro Masi, Cassa di Risparmio di Ferrara was one of the oldest saving bank (Italian: Cassa di Risparmio) after Bologna (since 1837), Spoleto (since 1836; renamed and relocated in 2012) and Rome (1836; now defunct) in the Papal States (but not in the whole Italy). From 1927 to 1942 the bank acquired Cassa di Risparmio di Copparo, Banca Popolare di Bondeno, the local mount of piety (found 1508), Banca di Portomaggiore, Monte di Credito su Pegno di Comacchio and Banca Popolare di Argenta.[3]
In December 1991, the bank daily operation and ownership also split into a società per azioni and Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Ferrara (Fondazione Carife).[4]
In 1994 the group acquired Banca di Credito Agrario di Ferrara. In 2002 the bank acquired Commercio e Finanza – Leasing e Factoring as well as Banca di Treviso (sold to Banca Popolare di Marostica in 2010[5]), Banca Popolare di Roma[6] and Credito Veronese (Creverbanca) in 2003. In 2004 the bank acquired Finproget. In 2005 Banca Modenese and Banca Farnese (sold to Banca Centropadana in 2014[7]) were acquired. In 2008 Banca di Credito e Risparmio di Romagna joined the group. In 2012, Carife would be merged with its subsidiaries: Banca Popolare di Roma,[8] Banca Modenese, Banca di Credito e Risparmio di Romagna and Finproget.
Eventually Banca Popolare di Roma[9] and Banca Modenese became divisions of the bank.
Insolvency
In 2013 the bank was under special administration by the Ministry of Economy and Finance.[10] The last annual report of the bank shown the group had a shareholders' equity of €373.555 million, with a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.41% as at 31 December 2012.[11]
Fondo Interbancario di Tutela dei Depositi had planned to bail-out Banca Marche, Banca Etruria, Carife, and CariChieti for more than €2 billion in late 2015 (€300 million for Carife announced on 6 May, subject to approval from Banca d'Italia and European Commission),[12][13][14] but they were bail-out by Italian National Resolution Fund (Italian: Fondo Nazionale di Risoluzione) instead, for a recapitalization of about €2 billion in total on 22 November. The 4 banks were the first bail-out in Italy since Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive was in force in Italy. Banca d'Italia was the national resolution authority of the Single Resolution Mechanism.[15]
The Italian National Resolution Fund had also injected a further €1.7 billion in total to the 4 banks to cover the losses.[16]
On 3 May 2016, Decree-Law N°59/2016 was announced, which the retail investors of the bond of the 4 banks would be refunded (up to €100,000, same as deposit insurance) if they purchased the bond on or before 12 June 2014, the date of Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive was passed in the European Parliament.[17] The decree-law was a response to criticism of the bail-in of all investor of the bank, which Italian bank often sold risky bond to their depositors. The refund scheme: Fondo di solidarietà, would be managed by FITD.[18]
Nuova Carife
On 22 November 2015 a "good bank" Nuova Cassa di Risparmio di Ferrara, was formed, with a share capital of €191 million.[19] The bank had a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 9% in a consolidated basis.[20] The bad debt of the old bank was transferred to a single "bad bank" REV - Gestione Crediti, which was shared with Carichieti, Banca Etruria and Banca Marche.[21] While the old bank would be liquidated, which the shareholders and subordinated bond holders would receive nothing due to bail-in.
In March 2016 a plan to absorb Commercio e Finanza was announced. Previously it was planned that the ex-subsidiary sold assets and liabilities to Nuova Carife.[22][23]
Shareholders
Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Ferrara was the owner (54.82%)[24] and parent entity of the old Carife, which took most of the charity function from the bank itself since 1992. Banca Popolare di Cividale and Banca Popolare di Puglia e Basilicataalso owned 0.72%[25] and 0.23% stake[26] of old Carife respectively.
The new Carife was owned by Italian National Resolution Fund (Italian: Fondo Nazionale di Risoluzione), a transitional fund that would eventually merged into Single Resolution Fund of the European Union.
