Mediobanca S.p.A.

MEDIOBANCA - Banca di Credito Finanziario Società per Azioni (Mediobanca S.p.A.)

Mediobanca S.p.A. is an Italian bank and financial institution headquartered in Milan. Its official disclosures state that it is registered as a bank and conducts private banking, corporate and investment banking, and other activities. Public product pages for everyday personal accounts belong to the Mediobanca Premier product line; they do not establish that this legal entity directly offers account opening to individuals or companies based outside Italy. An official notice lists the merger of Mediobanca into Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena S.p.A. as a special item on the shareholders' meeting agenda for 2026 year 10 month 29 day. As of the date of this profile, it remains a matter for consideration and should not be treated as an effective merger.

Bank’s official website

Personal Eligibility and Documents

Mediobanca Group publicly states that its wealth management services are for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients and that Mediobanca Premier focuses on Italian families, professionals, and entrepreneurs; its retail account page describes Conto Premier as suitable for everyday banking and investments. These are public descriptions of the group's business positioning and another product line, not a commitment that Mediobanca S.p.A. accepts individual account applications. The pages reviewed do not state the formal eligibility requirements for personal accounts at this legal entity or confirm whether Italian residents, nonresidents, foreign nationals, or people with different tax residencies may open an account. Residence, nationality, asset thresholds, product suitability, and the regions from which applications are accepted must all be confirmed in writing with the bank that will actually enter into the agreement.

Personal information publicly disclosed or identified

No public checklist of documents for opening a personal account was found for this banking entity. The following is not a policy published by Mediobanca S.p.A. and must be confirmed with the bank.
General preparation suggestion (not bank policy): Valid passport or identification document, proof of residential address, and information on nationality and immigration/residency status.
General preparation suggestion (not bank policy): Applicable tax-residency self-certification and tax numbers for each tax residence. If an Italian tax number is required, the Italian Revenue Agency states that non-resident individuals may apply through an Italian consular office in their country of residence.
General preparation suggestion (not bank policy): Supporting documents concerning occupation, source of income/wealth, and source of funds. The bank’s specific requirements, certification method, and translation or notarization requirements have not been publicly confirmed.

Company eligibility and documents

Mediobanca's official materials describe corporate and investment banking services and state that the group can provide entrepreneurs with services relating to personal wealth and business assets. However, its public pages do not specify eligibility for a standard settlement account offered by Mediobanca S.p.A. to general companies or promise that such accounts can be opened. The official public information reviewed does not clarify whether Italian companies, foreign companies, nonresident entities, businesses in different industries, or their shareholders/UBOs are accepted, or whether they may apply only for corporate financing or investment banking services. Confirm the contracting legal entity, target customers, and location restrictions for the specific product.

Company information publicly disclosed or identified

No public checklist of documents for opening a corporate account was found for this banking entity. All other entries in this array are general preparation suggestions, not policies published by Mediobanca S.p.A.
General preparation suggestion (not bank policy): Company registration certificate, articles of association, and documents showing continued existence/registered address, as well as proof of the directors, authorized signatories, and their signing authority.
General preparation suggestion (not bank policy): An ownership structure chart and information on the identity and control rights of ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs). Italian AML requirements provide a baseline obligation for regulated entities to identify and verify customers and beneficial owners, but this does not mean the bank has publicly disclosed its own document checklist.
General preparation suggestion (not bank policy): Materials covering the tax residence of the company and beneficial owners, applicable tax numbers, account tax classification, and source of funds/wealth, business activities, and financial position. The bank’s specific forms, thresholds, and certification requirements remain to be confirmed.

Address, tax, and remote / witnessed procedures

Address and tax

Mediobanca officially lists its registered office as Piazzetta Enrico Cuccia 1, 20121 Milan, Italy; its company tax identification number/Milan Companies Register number is 00714490158, and its VAT number is 10536040966. The range of accepted proof-of-address documents and requirements for nonresident addresses have not been publicly confirmed. The official process for individuals to apply for an Italian codice fiscale is separately set out by the Italian Tax Agency; nonresidents may apply through an Italian consular office in their country of residence. Confirm with the contracting account-opening entity whether a foreign individual must first obtain an Italian tax code, whether a foreign tax number is accepted, and what tax residency evidence is required.

Remote / witnessing

Mediobanca Premier publicly states that it uses multichannel services and digital banking tools, but this does not establish that Mediobanca S.p.A. or Mediobanca Premier offers remote account opening, global video identity verification, electronic witnessing, or third-party witnessing to new customers. Public materials do not confirm the countries/regions covered by remote identity verification or which notaries, lawyers, or witnesses may be accepted; confirm in writing with the bank actually opening the account.

Public process reference

Public information describes Mediobanca Group's private/investment banking and corporate/investment banking businesses, but does not publish the complete application process, application channel, or eligibility-review criteria for opening personal or corporate accounts with Mediobanca S.p.A.
If intending to apply for a regular personal account, first confirm the product provider and contracting entity. The published Conto Premier account information belongs to the Mediobanca Premier product line and should not be treated as the account-opening process of Mediobanca S.p.A.
Whether applications can be submitted online, whether an interview at an Italian branch is required, how customer identity and controlling persons are verified, document certification/translation requirements, approval steps and account activation after approval all require written confirmation from the bank.
Mediobanca's official announcement states that its shareholders will consider the merger into Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena S.p.A. on 2026-10-29. Confirm the resolution and its subsequent legal effective status before applying.

Compliance topics, details, and sources

Italy AML/KYC and ongoing due diligence

Italy’s AML baseline is centered on Legislative Decree 231/2007 and takes a risk-based approach. The Italian Financial Intelligence Unit explains that obliged entities must identify and verify customers and beneficial owners, understand the nature and scope of business relationships, conduct ongoing monitoring, and retain relevant records, and must report suspicious transactions to the UIF. This is a general legal baseline for the applicable jurisdiction, not a Mediobanca-specific account-opening form or customer acceptance policy.

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework

UBO, control structure and source of funds/wealth

Official Italian AML guidance covers the identification and verification of beneficial owners and refers to transparency/registration arrangements for the beneficial ownership of companies and trusts. Risk-based customer due diligence may require further explanation of ownership and control, and the source of funds/wealth. No complete public list of customer documents for this purpose from Mediobanca S.p.A. was found in this check; general preparation advice therefore cannot be presented as the bank’s mandatory document policy.

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework

Tax Residency Status, Tax Identification Number, and CRS/DAC2

The Italian Revenue Agency has issued guidance on reporting and transmitting financial account information under CRS/DAC2. Applicants should be prepared to provide a self-certification and relevant tax identification numbers based on their actual tax-residence status. The specific applicability determination and forms used by Mediobanca have not been publicly verified. The Italian Revenue Agency also explains how foreign individuals can apply for a codice fiscale.

U.S. Tax Status and FATCA (separate from CRS)

The U.S.–Italy FATCA intergovernmental agreement published by the U.S. Department of the Treasury requires reporting Italian financial institutions to identify U.S. reportable accounts in accordance with the due diligence procedures in the annex. U.S. account tax identification should be handled separately under the applicable FATCA framework. This profile does not describe the United States as a CRS participating jurisdiction or infer Mediobanca’s specific customer classification or reporting procedures.

EU restrictive measures and sanctions

The European Commission explains that the relevant EU restrictive measures and regulations create legal obligations for individuals, organisations and institutions within EU jurisdiction, and provides a sanctions map and consolidated list of financial sanctions. Mediobanca’s list screening, match handling and internal escalation procedures have not been verified by the public materials reviewed; this item describes only the EU sanctions environment applicable to banks in Italy.

Compliance evidence

Account-opening compliance and supporting-document checklist

The bank’s stated requirements, local regulations, and preparation recommendations are presented separately. Acceptance in a specific case is subject to confirmation by the bank.

Mediobanca officially positions wealth management as private and investment banking services and states that Mediobanca Private Banking serves high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients; Mediobanca Premier focuses on Italian families. Public pages do not establish that Mediobanca S.p.A. accepts deposits from general individuals or companies, nor do they confirm eligibility for applicants based outside Italy. This guide is for preparing materials to submit to the actual contracting entity only and does not represent a commitment by a bank to accept an application.[cg-1]

Date information checked:2026-10-26

Information evidence package

Personal identity, address and tax information

Who it applies to: Individuals intending to inquire about private banking or investment services; this does not apply where a Mediobanca Premier current account is treated directly as a Mediobanca S.p.A. product.
Documents to Prepare: General preparation suggestion: A valid passport or identity document, proof of current residential address, and proof of residence status. First confirm with the bank which address documents it accepts, their issue date requirements, and the required form of certification.
General preparation suggestion: Compile all tax residences, corresponding tax numbers, and information required for tax self-certification. If the bank confirms that an Italian codice fiscale is required, the Italian Revenue Agency states that non-resident individuals may apply through an Italian consular office in their country of residence. [cg-3]
General preparation suggestion: Supporting documents for the individual’s occupation, source of income/wealth, and source of funds to be transferred, such as payslips/tax documents, audit or investment documents, asset sale contracts, and related bank statements. Prepare a consistent explanation of the funds’ source and path.
Description: The above checklist is application preparation guidance, not a mandatory document list published by the bank. The bank pages reviewed describe its customer segments and business focus but do not list personal account-opening documents. Requirements for originals, certified copies, apostilles/legalization, translations, or document validity periods have not been published. [cg-1]

Company legal entity and evidence of control chain

Who it applies to: For applicants seeking services for companies or institutions only; public information does not confirm that Mediobanca S.p.A. offers general business current accounts, so first confirm the intended service, contracting legal entity, and entity type.
Documents to Prepare: General preparation suggestion: Company registration/formation certificate, articles of association, registered address and recent registration details, identifying directors and authorized signatories; also prepare a board resolution or authorization document to evidence authority to apply and sign.
General preparation suggestion: An ownership and control structure chart listing direct/indirect owners, ownership/voting percentages, and control arrangements at each tier; prepare a shareholder register, registry extracts, information on trust or nominee arrangements (if applicable), and identification for the relevant natural persons.
General preparation suggestion: Recent financial statements, key contracts/invoices, an overview of operating locations and customers/suppliers, and supporting documents for the proposed flow and source of funds.
Description: Italy’s AML framework requires obliged entities to identify and verify customers and beneficial owners and understand the nature and scope of the business relationship; it does not specify the bank’s publicly disclosed document formats or UBO threshold. The specific determination applicable to this case has not been verified. Do not truncate the ownership chain based solely on 25%. [cg-2]

Source:Mediobanca — What we can offer；UIF — The national legislative framework

Submission format and evidence-chain preparation

Who it applies to: Individuals, companies, and controlling persons may use this as a document-preparation suggestion; it does not imply support for remote account opening or electronic witnessing.
Documents to Prepare: Create an index by applicant identity, source of funds/wealth, route of funds transfers, and intended account use, retaining original contracts, bank records, and accounting documents that corroborate one another.
For a company application, attach a one-page ownership/control structure chart and a summary of signing authority; individuals should align their résumé, tax status, and source-of-wealth timeline.
Before submission, prepare a document index stating the issuing authority, date, language and whether each document is an original; first ask the bank whether certification, translation, hard copies, in-person verification or designated forms are required.
Description: All of the above are general preparation recommendations. Mediobanca's public business information does not publish an account opening document list, document standards, application channel, or interview format; do not pay for certification/translation in advance until the bank confirms the formats it accepts.

Due diligence and enhanced verification

Beneficial Owners and Actual Control

Basis for Verification: The Italian UIF’s explanation of the AML framework requires obliged entities to identify and verify customers and beneficial owners and, based on risk, understand the nature and scope of the relationship; it does not replace confirmation of the specific ownership threshold, control determination, and the bank’s forms for this case. [cg-2]
Preparation recommendation: It is advisable to disclose the complete direct and indirect ownership chain, voting rights, appointment/removal or agreement-based control, and any trust or nominee arrangements. If there is no single clearly identifiable ultimate individual, explain how control is assessed and ask the bank about its applicable criteria and required evidence.
Scope: Italy’s general AML regulatory framework; this is not a Mediobanca-specific document policy. The specific UBO percentage threshold and whether the bank requires a company registry extract or declaration have not been confirmed in the public materials reviewed.

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework

Source of Funds, Source of Wealth, and Genuine Business Activity

Basis for Verification: Italy’s AML due diligence is risk-based. Obliged entities, including banks, must understand the nature and scope of the business relationship and conduct ongoing checks; banks’ risk ratings, evidentiary requirements, and internal limits for specific customers have not been made public. [cg-2]
Preparation recommendation: It is advisable to link transaction amounts, dates and beneficiaries using contracts, invoices, audited statements, tax documents, investment/asset sale records and statements for the source-of-funds account. The company should be able to explain its main business, major transaction regions, expected account flows and their relationship to the purpose of opening the account; prepare an item-by-item description of the flow for complex cross-border funds.
Scope: Due-diligence requirements imposed by law on obligated entities; the documents and explanations described above are general preparation recommendations and do not mean that the bank will necessarily require every item.

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework

PEP, sanctions and related-party screening

Basis for Verification: EU restrictive measures and related legislation create legal obligations for individuals, organizations, and institutions within their scope. The European Commission provides a sanctions map and a consolidated list of financial sanctions. This legal context does not disclose Mediobanca’s list-screening methods, handling of matches, or customer risk appetite. [cg-4]
Preparation recommendation: General preparation suggestion: If the applicant, UBO, directors, or authorized persons hold or have held public office, list the position, country, period in office, and relationship to the applicant entity in advance. If a name/entity may match an entry on a sanctions list, prepare the date of birth, registration number, nationality, and business background to distinguish it. Confirm with the bank the scope of PEP declarations, whether additional source-of-wealth information is required, and the escalation process for potential matches.
Scope: EU sanctions regulations provide the applicable legal background; the bank’s operational details for PEP and list screening have not been published. The preparation items in this section are not requirements imposed by the bank, and PEP status is not equivalent to being a sanctions target or grounds for automatic rejection.

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework；European Commission — EU restrictive measures and sanctions

Cross-Border Tax Status and Tax Identification Numbers

Basis for Verification: The Italian Revenue Agency explains the purpose of the codice fiscale and how foreign nationals can apply; non-resident individuals may apply through the Italian consular office in their country of residence. This guidance does not establish that an Italian tax identification number must be obtained before opening an account, nor does it represent the bank’s tax-residence self-certification policy. [cg-3]
Preparation recommendation: General preparation suggestion: List all individual/entity tax residences, corresponding tax numbers, and any changes; confirm which tax self-certification form, entity classification certification, and foreign tax-number formats the bank accepts. Obtain an Italian tax number only if the bank or the specific service confirms it is required.
Scope: Official Italian tax identification number application information and general cross-border account-opening preparation advice; the pages reviewed do not explain Mediobanca’s CRS/FATCA forms, reporting classifications, or eligibility of foreign tax residents.

Ongoing maintenance obligations

Due diligence information and ongoing verification of customer relationships

Italy’s AML framework requires obliged entities such as banks to conduct ongoing checks on customer relationships and retain records of the information obtained; specific review intervals, channels through which the bank may ask customers to update information, and consequences of late updates have not been made public. Customers should provide consistent and verifiable updated information promptly when requested by the bank and obtain the information-update obligations set out in the contract before opening an account. [cg-2]

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework

Account transactions and explanation of funds

Risk-based ongoing monitoring is the responsibility of obliged entities. To reduce the risk of requests for additional documents due to transactions inconsistent with the initial business description, it is advisable to retain contracts, invoices and evidence of the remittance chain for large, cross-border or non-recurring incoming payments; the bank’s transaction limits, advance notification requirements and deadlines for additional documents have not been publicly disclosed, and specific limits should not be assumed. [cg-2]

Source:UIF — The national legislative framework

Sanctions changes and tax information maintenance

EU restrictive measures may change as regulations are updated. The EU provides official information on current sanctions regimes and access to the consolidated list, but this bank’s screening frequency and customer notification procedures have not been disclosed. It is advisable to keep up-to-date documents that explain the identity of the individual/entity and to confirm with the bank how to update declarations if your tax residence or tax identification number changes. Deadlines for reporting changes must be confirmed against the account agreement and bank notices. [cg-3] [cg-4]

Not confirmed by public information

Public information confirms the business focus, not account-opening products, eligibility commitments, or qualifications for overseas customers of Mediobanca S.p.A. applying as ordinary individuals or businesses. Identify the actual contracting legal entity first.
The bank has not published an account opening document checklist, rules for originals/certified copies and translations, coverage of remote verification, application process, fees, minimum balance, approval times, or account maintenance frequency.
The official AML overview reviewed supports customer/UBO identification and ongoing monitoring principles, but does not establish the specific UBO percentage/control standard applicable to this case; do not treat any single percentage as universal or as a standard published by the bank.
Mediobanca's PEP screening, sanctions-list tools, risk appetite, internal limits, and handling of matches are not public; approval outcomes should not be predicted on this basis.
The tax identification number application page does not establish that an Italian codice fiscale is required to open an account, nor does it confirm the bank’s CRS/FATCA forms, the scope of acceptance of foreign tax residents, or update deadlines.

Sources & Scope of Verification

Mediobanca — What we can offer
The bank’s official disclosures describe the service focus of private/investment banking and wealth management, stating that private banking serves HNWIs/UHNWIs and Mediobanca Premier focuses on Italian households; no general account-opening eligibility or document requirements are published.
UIF — The national legislative framework
The Italian Financial Intelligence Unit explains the AML regulatory framework and risk-based approach, and the obligations of obliged entities to identify and verify customers and beneficial owners, understand the nature and scope of relationships, conduct ongoing reviews, retain records, and report suspicious transactions; this is not a Mediobanca-specific account-opening list.
Agenzia delle Entrate — Tax identification number for foreign citizens
The Italian Revenue Agency explains the purpose of the codice fiscale for foreign nationals and how to apply, including that non-resident individuals may apply through the Italian consular office in their country of residence; this does not establish that the tax identification number is required to open a bank account.
European Commission — EU restrictive measures and sanctions
The European Commission explains that the relevant restrictive measures regulations create legal obligations for individuals, organisations and institutions within EU jurisdiction, and provides a sanctions map and consolidated list of financial sanctions; it does not disclose Mediobanca’s screening policy.

Fees and timelines

No fees, minimum deposits, transaction limits, approval times, or account-opening timelines have been found from Mediobanca S.p.A. for the account opening discussed in this file. The Conto Premier page from Mediobanca Premier separately lists monthly fee discount conditions and states that the promotion runs through 2026-12-31; that page does not establish the fees of this legal entity or their applicability to this case, so its terms are not applied to Mediobanca S.p.A.

Limitations and practical considerations

Inclusion in the candidate set or ranking does not mean that the bank’s licence has been independently verified, nor that the bank accepts new individual or business account applications.
The Mediobanca Group describes itself as a private/investment bank and a corporate/investment bank. Public information on everyday accounts relates to the Mediobanca Premier product line; the legal entity providing the service and the regions where applications are accepted should be confirmed first.
Differences in eligibility for resident and non-resident individuals, foreign nationals, and local/foreign legal entities, as well as minimum asset or business requirements, have not been publicly confirmed; do not assume that overseas customers can open an account.
As of 2026-10-26, the merger item remains listed on the special agenda for the shareholders' meeting on 2026-10-29. If approved and effective, the entity and application channel may change; these must be reverified.
This profile is based on publicly available research. It is not a promise of account acceptance or service, nor a bank channel for which Rengangyongsheng (Hong Kong) Limited can currently arrange an appointment.

Licensing evidence and regulatory verification

Mediobanca's official company information states that it is registered as a bank, registration number 4753, and is a member of the Monte dei Paschi di Siena Banking Group, group registration number 1030. Its official disclaimer also states that Mediobanca S.p.A. is authorized by and supervised by the Bank of Italy. These are statements by the issuer and are not equivalent to independent verification of the entity's current entry in the Italian Bank regulatory register during this review. The public explanatory page for the regulatory register search was reviewed, but a specific Mediobanca register entry was not obtained and verified. Accordingly, only the company's self-reported registration information is recorded here; its current regulatory register entry remains to be confirmed.
