About BANCA POPOLARE DI FONDI

Banca Popolare di Fondi is a regional Italian cooperative bank (banca popolare) headquartered in Fondi, Lazio, focused on retail and small-business banking in its home market. It offers current and savings accounts, payment services (including SEPA transfers and instant payments where enabled), debit cards on the PagoBANCOMAT circuit and international cards (Visa/Mastercard), personal loans, mortgages, and financing for SMEs such as credit lines, term loans, and guarantees, with leasing, factoring, asset management, and insurance typically distributed through external partners. Distribution is centered on a local branch network supported by internet and mobile banking that complies with PSD2 strong customer authentication standards; account opening and lending remain relationship-driven and subject to standard credit assessments and documentation under Italian law. The bank is authorized and supervised by the Bank of Italy within the European supervisory framework and participates in the Fondo Interbancario di Tutela dei Depositi, which protects eligible deposits up to 100,000 euros per depositor per bank; complaints can be escalated to the Arbitro Bancario Finanziario. Funding is primarily from customer deposits, while lending is concentrated in households and local enterprises, implying exposure to the regional economic cycle and real-estate collateral values; liquidity, capital, and large-exposure limits are governed by CRR/CRD rules. Pricing follows typical Italian market practice, with account packages and service fees disclosed in the foglio informativo; international transfers are available via the SWIFT network, and cash access relies on the domestic Bancomat ATM network. The institution does not operate investment banking or broad capital-markets activities and has a limited geographic footprint, which may constrain product breadth and digital features compared with national groups, but supports localized credit underwriting and payment services for customers in central-southern Lazio.
