About Millennium bcp

Millennium bcp is the retail and corporate banking brand of Banco Comercial Português (BCP), the largest privately owned banking group in Portugal, with core operations in Portugal and subsidiaries in Poland (Bank Millennium S.A.) and Mozambique (Millennium bim). The group provides current and savings accounts, debit and credit cards, mortgages commonly indexed to Euribor, consumer loans, insurance distribution, and investment and pension products via group entities, along with SME and corporate services such as cash management, trade finance, and lending. Access is offered through branches and digital channels; online and mobile banking use PSD2 strong customer authentication, apply 3-D Secure for card payments, and support MB WAY, SEPA credit transfers, and, where available, SEPA Instant. In Portugal, cards operate on the Multibanco network; cross-border payments are processed via SWIFT and may incur correspondent-bank fees and foreign-exchange margins. Fees follow published tariff schedules, typically including account maintenance and card charges, with statutory “basic bank account” options available under Portuguese law. Account opening requires standard KYC (identification, Portuguese tax number, proof of address, and income verification for credit products); non-residents can open accounts subject to additional documentation and possible in-branch verification. Deposits in Portugal are covered by the Portuguese Deposit Guarantee Fund up to EUR 100,000 per depositor, per bank. BCP is supervised by Banco de Portugal and the European Central Bank under the Single Supervisory Mechanism and is listed on Euronext Lisbon; it consolidates Bank Millennium in Poland, which continues to face significant legal risk and provisions related to legacy Swiss-franc mortgage contracts. Group earnings, asset quality, and capital remain sensitive to interest-rate conditions in Portugal, ongoing litigation costs in Poland, and macroeconomic and currency risks in Mozambique.
