On 1 January 2011 the bank purchased fellow savings bank Banca Caripe from Banco Popolare. The enlarged banking group was also referred as Tercas Caripe. However, Tercas was acquired by Banca Popolare di Bari (BP Bari) in 2014, which in turn Tercas and Caripe became part of the BP Bari Group as divisions.

History

Cassa di Risparmio della Provincia di Teramo was found on 12 October 1939 [2] (date of royal decree) by the merger of Casse di Risparmio di Atri and Casse di Risparmio di Nereto. On 24 June 1992, the bank was split into Tercas S.p.A. and a banking foundation. The banking foundation owned 80% shares of the società per azioni (company limited by shares), while one of the leading savings bank Cassa di Risparmio delle Provincie Lombarde (Cariplo) owned the rest of shares or 20%. [3] Cariplo also owned 20% shares of fellow Abruzzo-based savings banks Carichieti and Caripe.

In October 2006 Banca Tercas S.p.A. was founded. The banking foundation sold 15% shares they owned to the public. [4] Banca Intesa, the successor of Cariplo, retained their 20% shares. [5] In 2007 Intesa Sanpaolo, the successor of Banca Intesa, sold their 20% shares on Banca Tercas for €89 million to other investors. [6] [7] Creval was a minority shareholders of the bank for 7.8%.

On 1 January 2011 Banca Tercas acquired the controlling interests of Banca Caripe (95%) for €228 million from Banco Popolare. [8] Fondazione Pescara Abruzzo, the banking foundation which originated from Caripe, owned 3.5% shares of Banca Tercas as well as 5% of Banca Caripe. [9]
