List of banks in Italy

Italy had 11 banking group (excluding banking group that owned by foreign banks) that were supervised by the European Central Bank directly. According to Mediobanca, the overall number of banks and credits institutions in Italy stands at 439 in 2022, which is a sharp decrease from the 740 that were operating in 2011.^[1]

Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena, founded in 1472, is the world's oldest or second oldest bank in continuous operation.

The ECB considers ICCREA Banca (the federation of several Italian cooperative banks) as one banking group, just like Cassa Centrale Banca - Credito Cooperativo Italiano, while Mediobanca considers that the cooperative banks are individual entities, therefore BCC Iccrea Group and Cassa Centrale Banca are included in the list but not ranked.
