In 1992, Scannapieco obtained a bachelor's degree in economics from LUISS Guido Carli in Rome. In 1997, he obtained a master's degree in business administration from Harvard Business School.[2][3]
Scannapieco began his career in 1992 within the Planning and Strategic Control Department of Telecom Italia.[4][5] Three years later, he joined the Council of Experts of the Italian Ministry of Treasure.[3] From 2002 to 2007, he was general director of Finance and Privatizations of the Department of Treasury of the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance.[6][7]
In 2007, he was appointed as vice president of the European Investment Bank (EIB), and from 2012 to 2021, he was also chairman of the board of the European Investment Fund, in which the EIB is a majority shareholder.[8][9] During this period, he was in charge of the Investment Plan for Europe (also known as the Juncker Plan).[4][10]
Since 1 June 2021, Scannapieco has been the CEO and general director of the Italian bank Cassa Depositi e Prestiti.[5][11] He was appointed CEO of CDP Reti the following month.[12] According to Bloomberg News, Scannapieco has been an associate of Italian economist and former prime minister Mario Draghi since the 1990s. Additionally, Draghi selected him as the leader of the state lender institution, a position described in the same outlet as "one of Italy’s highest-profile corporate posts".[13][14] As Giorgia Meloni assumed power in late 2022, political observers discussed Scannapieco as a potential technocratic cabinet member, namely minister of finance.[15] Ultimately the position was occupied by Lega Nord politician Giancarlo Giorgetti. Euronews reported that Scannapieco had declined the position.[16]
