Private banking awards national winners 2026: Italy

Best private bank: Mediobanca Private Banking

Mediobanca Private Banking deepened its focus on Italy’s ultra-wealthy households and entrepreneurial families, leaning into advisory-led relationships that become most valuable around liquidity events, succession planning and cross-border structuring. 

This strategic focus during the review period translated into visible momentum in higher-margin mandates and a business mix increasingly driven by tailored portfolio management and private assets, rather than purely transactional revenues.

On the solutions side, the bank expanded its technology-enabled customised managed accounts capability, and broadened its private markets shelf with new fundraising for evergreen private-credit funds in partnership with global managers including Blackstone, Morgan Stanley and Apollo.
