History
Cassa Rurale ed Artigiana della Bassa Bresciana was formed in the 1970s by the merger of Cassa Rurale e Artigiana di Leno (found 1893), Cassa Rurale e Artigiana di Gambara (found 1891) and Cassa Rurale e Artigiana di Seniga e Pescarolo (found 1897). In 1993 the bank changed the name to Cassa Padana, after absorbing Cassa Rurale e Artigiana di Gussola. The bank absorbed BCC Camuna in 2010, Banca Veneta 1896 and BCC Valtrompia in 2011.
In 2016, due to banking reform of BCC banks (Law N°49/201), the bank demutualized itself by forming Cassa Padana S.p.A., leaving the co-operative society as a holding company only.
