Casse Toscane

Due to Legge Amato, the bank was split into a società per azioni (limited company), and a non-profit organization (Ente Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia, which was renamed to Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia in late 1990s) on 13 April 1992 (gazetted on 14 May).

[4] The ente also immediately sold around 51% shares to an intermediate holding company Holding Casse Toscane (literally Tuscan saving banks), which consists of the saving bank (Italian : Cassa di Risparmio) of Florence (Banca CR Firenze), Livorno, Lucca, Pisa, San Miniato as well as Banca del Monte di Lucca. [5] In return the ente received around 10% shares of the holding, making the ente hold about 31.525% of the shares of the bank directly or about 36.4% combined (saving shares excluded), as well as minority interests in other banks.

[9] The foundation also owned 3.95% shares of Banca CR Firenze (as of 31 December 2000), [9] [10] due to the acquisition.
