Intesa San Paolo closes Gabicce Mare branch, leaving one bank

Intesa San Paolo will close its Gabicce Mare branch in mid-October, leaving only one bank in the town. This closure is part of a national restructuring plan. The closure of the Intesa branch on Via Cesare Battisti will leave only Riviera Banca open. The decision prioritizes the Cattolica branch, impacting local services and potentially harming the town's commercial viability. This closure follows a trend of bank branch reductions, with eight banks once operating in Gabicce Mare. Local officials are working to mitigate the impact, including seeking a delay and exploring alternative solutions.
