Banco di Brescia San Paolo CAB S.p.A., commonly referred to as Banco di Brescia, was an Italian financial institution headquartered in Brescia, Lombardy. On 20 February 2017, it was fully integrated into its parent entity, UBI Banca.
By June 2016, Banco di Brescia managed a network of 288 branches distributed as follows: 205 within Lombardy, 45 across Lazio, 27 in Veneto, 9 in Friuli – Venezia Giulia, and a single branch in Trentino – South Tyrol.

History
The merger of Banca San Paolo di Brescia and Credito Agrario Bresciano in 1998 resulted in the creation of Group Banca Lombarda. Their subsidiaries, Banca di Valle Camonica and Banco di San Giorgio, continued operating independently. On 1 January 1999, the group launched a new brand consolidating its Brescia-based banks under the name Banco di Brescia. Subsequently, in 2007, following an all-stock takeover of Banca Lombarda, it became part of Group UBI Banca.
In 2016, UBI Banca revealed a strategic plan aimed at eliminating retail sub-brands, culminating in the merger of Banco di Brescia into UBI Banca on 20 February 2017.
Sponsorship
Banco di Brescia maintained a sponsorship agreement with Brescia Calcio, extending a collaboration originally started by its predecessor Credito Agrario Bresciano (CAB) between 1991 and 1995. Additionally, the parent company Banca Lombarda supported the club from 2001 to 2005 without highlighting the subsidiary’s branding.
