This relationship has allowed, among other things, the protection and development of artistic and historical-cultural assets that make Siena one of the most prestigious cities.
The events of the Oldest bank in the world together with the pandemic situation a cause great concern about the future of the city of Siena.
Without going into the merits of political and economic choices, from which each district obviously keeps its distance, it is important to underline the hope that Banca Monte dei Paschi will remain, for its territory of origin, a point of reference capable of deep collaboration relationships. and to perpetuate the continuous enhancement of the Palio and of the entire heritage of the city of Siena.
The Magistrate of the Contrade, as the maximum expression of the 17 Sisters, therefore expresses a strong hope that all those who in various capacities are working for a definitive and lasting solution can seek the best solutions for the protection of the historic brand, employees and customers and for the defense of the link with one’s own territory of choice, maintaining a relationship that goes far beyond the classic bank-customer relationships, but which has its roots in the very essence and depth of the feelings of every Sienese. “
