With three home markets in one of western Europes wealthiest regions and many more farther east, UniCredit has grown the most pan-European of retail banking networks quickly and profitably through well-executed acquisitions. The success of the bank and its chief executive, Alessandro Profumo, has also rehabilitated the image of Italian banks in the eyes of international competitors and investors. No longer a joke, Italian banks mean business and none more so than UniCredit, Europes second-largest bank and Euromoneys clear choice for best bank in western Europe this year.
