The Italian banking system has lost an extremely valid representative, said ABI president Giuseppe Mussari, commenting on Alessandro Profumo’s resignations. “It is not ABI’s task – he said – to comment an associated bank’s managerial decisions, but aside from the fact that I’m sorry for a friend, it should be pointed out that, following Alessandro Profumo’s resignations, Italian banks have lost an extremely valid representative, and ABI’s executive board has lost a member that for many years gave a huge contribution to the association”.
