About BANCA POPOLARE VESUVIANA SOCIETA' COOPERATIVA

BANCA POPOLARE VESUVIANA SOCIETA’ COOPERATIVA is an Italian cooperative bank operating in the Vesuvius–Naples area of Campania, organized under the banca popolare model and focused on retail and small business banking delivered through a local branch network and remote channels. Its offering covers current and savings accounts, domestic and SEPA payments and direct debits, debit and credit cards, consumer and mortgage lending, and credit facilities for SMEs, with ancillary services such as securities custody, insurance distribution, and merchant POS/acquiring as provided in its commercial arrangements. As a cooperative, customers can apply to become members by subscribing shares; under this model members have one-person-one-vote governance, statutory caps on individual holdings, admission subject to the board, and potential dividends subject to results and bylaws. Cooperative shares are unlisted and illiquid, are not covered by deposit insurance, and redemptions are constrained by capital and statutory rules. Deposits and eligible balances are protected up to €100,000 per depositor per bank by the Italian deposit guarantee scheme (Fondo Interbancario di Tutela dei Depositi); investment and insurance products are not covered. The bank operates under the supervision of the Bank of Italy within the European framework (CRR/CRD, PSD2, AML/KYC, GDPR) and applies strong customer authentication for online access and payment initiation. Accounts and payment services are subject to published fees and to statutory taxes, including the annual stamp duty on current accounts (€34.20 for individuals and €100 for businesses when the average balance exceeds €5,000) and the 0.2% stamp duty on securities held in custody; pricing, interest rates, and lending conditions are set by the bank and may change with market conditions. As a regional institution, its geographic footprint is local rather than national, which affects branch availability and service coverage outside Campania; cash and payments rely on the Bancomat/PagoBancomat network and the international circuits linked to issued cards. Contractual documentation, transparency sheets, and financial statements are available through official channels, and complaints can be filed through the bank’s internal process and, if needed, escalated to the Arbitro Bancario Finanziario. Prospective customers should review the most recent product disclosures and bylaws to understand eligibility, costs, and the rights and obligations associated with membership and services.
