History
Credito Valtellinese is a former co-operative bank based in Sondrio found in 1908, as Banca Piccolo Credito Valtellinese. (Not to be confused with Banca Popolare di Sondrio) The bank expanded by the acquisition of Technoleasing (later Bancaperta) in the 1980s and Credito Artigiano in 1996, which was the parent company of Banca dell'Artigianato e dell'Industria. In 2002 Sicilian banks Banca Popolare Santa Venera in Acireale, Cassa San Giacomo in Caltagirone and Banca Regionale Sant'Angelo were merged to become Credito Siciliano. In 2008 Credito Piemontese, Cassa di Risparmio di Fano, Banca Cattolica di Montefiascone and Credito del Lazio (former Banca della Ciociaria) joined.
