About CREDITO ETNEO - BANCA DI CREDITO COOPERATIVO, SOCIETA' COOPERATIVA A RESPONSABILITA' LIMITATA

CREDITO ETNEO - BANCA DI CREDITO COOPERATIVO, SOCIETA' COOPERATIVA A RESPONSABILITA' LIMITATA is an Italian cooperative bank operating in the Etna area of Sicily, focused on retail clients, small businesses, and the local third sector. As a BCC, it is owned by member-shareholders under a one-member-one-vote model; becoming a member typically requires subscribing cooperative shares and confers governance rights distinct from ordinary customer status. Its offering covers current and savings accounts, SEPA transfers and direct debits, debit and credit cards on domestic and international circuits, ATM access, online and mobile banking, and standard lending products including personal loans, mortgages, credit lines, and finance for artisans and agriculture; merchant services and POS solutions are generally available for businesses. Pricing is packaged by account type and may include monthly maintenance fees, card fees, and charges for transfers or out-of-network withdrawals; deposit rates tend to track the broader Italian market, and lending conditions are commonly indexed to Euribor with risk-based spreads. The branch network is concentrated in its home territory, with relationship banking and local decision-making central to operations; digital channels, authentication, and open-banking features follow the shared platforms used across the cooperative banking sector and comply with PSD2 strong customer authentication. Risk profile is influenced by geographic concentration and exposure to the local economy; capital, governance, and risk controls are integrated within the national cooperative banking framework and subject to prudential supervision by Banca d’Italia and, at the group level, the ECB. Customer deposits are protected up to €100,000 per depositor under the EU guarantee via the Fondo di Garanzia dei Depositanti del Credito Cooperativo, and the sector’s institutional protection scheme provides additional support mechanisms. The bank suits households and SMEs operating in its catchment area that require everyday banking and credit with local coverage; those needing extensive international services, a wide branch footprint, or a broad investment product range may find the catalogue narrower than at large commercial banks. Prospective clients should review current tariffs, membership requirements, and local branch availability before applying.
