Who we are

Ever since the first bank counter opened to the public in 1960, through the initiative of Luigi Jacobini and 76 other members, no one would have thought that within a few decades a strong, dynamic and well-rooted enterprise would have been established in the region.

After 50 years of banking service, Banca Popolare di Bari has earned the right to claim the role of being a pivotal credit institution in the southern Italian region. Thanks to ongoing acquisitions and strategically targeted choices, BPB has become progressively consolidated and is making its way into various Italian territories, including the northern regions.

Proof of its growth is the most recent goal reached by BPB: the purchase of 43 new bank counters in the South-Central territory, tapping an increase in capital of 150 million euro, which confirms the courage, aggressiveness and dynamism that have always been hallmark features of the Institution.
