"UniCredit SpA (UCG) is considering strengthening its presence in the fastest-growing regions of the Middle East, Asia and Latin America, Chief Executive Officer Federico Ghizzoni said.
“The bank is reviewing its presence outside Europe and may open new offices and branches in those regions to support the bank’s clients,” Ghizzoni told reporters late yesterday at a meeting with foreign press in Milan. UniCredit may also sign commercial agreements with local banks boosting offer for finance, advisory and global transaction banking services for European customers, he said.
UniCredit, Italy’s biggest bank, which has offices in about 50 countries, is focusing on banking and commercial business to improve profitability.
