- Luigi Merlo, new foothold on the ladder of Unicredit ports?
- The chairman of the Port of Genoa has been appointed Chairman of the Territory of UniCredit for Liguria
Perhaps it is a symptom of old age or perhaps obsession. But we can not not ask again the same question: is it normal?
- There we asked him recently when the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has sponsored the design of the UniCredit Banking Group to build a new container port in Trieste-Monfalcone (
of 15 November 2010). We asked him to well at the appointment of Marina Monassi for president of the Port Authority of Trieste, chair upon which you are seated ( of 25 November 2010).
- This time the question concerns the president of the Port Authority of Genoa, Luigi Merlo, but the story is in many ways similar to previous ones. Marina Monassi UniCredit rose from the Port Authority, while Merlo walking the same path but in reverse. Minister Frattini promotes and supports the project and UniCredit Merlo is placed at the head of a new organism of the same banking group.
- UniCredit, in fact, has established two new advisory bodies with the aim - said the group - to monitor and guide the activities of the bank's business on the Italian territory: it's 18 Councils of the Territory and three Divisional Advisory Committees. "These new bodies - said Gabriele Piccini, Country Chairman of UniCredit Italy - add to the structure of the new UniCredit in Italy and will have as its main strategic objective to further strengthen the relationship with local communities and at the same time not lose the skills of specializations in order to make deeper synergies between the business in terms of business effectiveness and efficiency. "
- UniCredit has given a mandate to its board of Space, which is to focus their actions and their actions on the thematic strands of "internationalization, export and made in Italy, the territory's infrastructure modernization, development and evolution of clusters of chains and networks business, tourism and agribusiness. It will also work on attention to the new entrepreneurship, innovation, financial education, the media sectors, companies and families in difficulty and the green economy. "
- The Presidency of the Council of the Territory of UniCredit for Liguria is being offered to the chairman of the Port Authority of Genoa, who has accepted.
- These too close links between politics and finance, we confess, we do not like. So we ask again if everything is normal. In our view it is not at all when the Minister Frattini, a politician and a representative government, calls for a private project. But it seems there is not even in the other two cases. Do not come and say that, as chairperson of the Port Authority, and Merlo Monassi are not political. Beyond their past, if only because they are managed and regulated goods and services.
- Among the presidents of the Councils of the Territory of infants UniCredit, the political role of Luigi Merlo stands out among other names, mostly related to the business world.
- Perhaps our question is prompted by his amazement that he had learned that Merlo, usually so attentive to its role as guarantor of the port economy, controller of the business working with the port and so ready to call for equal rules for all, agree to represent and guide a community completely legitimate private interests.
