The famous saying that goes "there is no two without three", it also reveals a bitter truth in the events in recent months are sweeping the banking system Rimini and San Marino. Inevitable consequence of a "domino effect" began with the measures of Italy against San Marino (primarily for inclusion in Black List).
the Commissioner of the Cassa di Rimini Risparimo , as well as the third important measure of recent months (after the credit of Romagna and Banca di Rimini), however, is linked to more complex reasons. More obscure.
Let's start with telling a fact that, with hindsight, was significant. I am referring to the now infamous "fool in the bar of Deputies" , during which a political Marino (Theodore Lonfernini), an unlikely looking approach informally with the Minister Giulio Tremonti, said the efforts of San Marino and out of the Black List thus carry it on the "right way." The problem is that this discussion is done in the wrong place. At the wrong time.
Tremonti is not flustered and responded in kind, with a phrase that says it all.
" Just kidding."
Then he goes, leaving behind a stunned group of diplomats from San Marino.
A few weeks behind those words uttered by Tremonti, there is much more than just a statement. There is a promise.
Looking at the way in which the Savings Bank Rimini was commissioner in fact, we now extend the exclamation of Tremonti.
"Just kidding ... now do as I say."
is that in a few days Bank of Italy, through a lapidary press release announcing the receivership of one of the largest banks in Rimini, by giving the official reason "serious financial losses, serious deficiencies and failures of management, with particular reference to the subsidiary Industrial Credit Sammarinese.
Bankitalia short, (some say on the direct invitation of Tremonti) puts his hands on the Case di Risparmio di Rimini, which in turn controls a bank of San Marino (Credito Industriale Sammarinese), allows Italy to enter the banking system of the Titan directly from the input port.
A real Trojan horse.
The course makes news headlines, and in the days after leaving the open the most varied rumors. It is said above, that behind this story there would be political rather than economic reasons, and in particular, makes reference to two facts.
The first is the process called Basel 3.
is an international agreement approved by the Governors of central banks that " imposes stricter capital requirements for the operation of banks, so that institutions have more resources to withstand a crisis like the subprime mortgages that has devastated the international financial system. "
This suggests that banks as easily Carim, solid and rooted in the territory, representing the partners ideal for large groups who have had a long period of crisis.
This probably is the first reason. Absorb a bank "symbol" to understand the entire local system that the call Bank of Italy to meet the Basel Accord is a real ultimatum.
The second of these reasons "unofficial" is one that goes from San Marino.
It appears that the Cassa di Risparmio di Rimini, during the inspections that have been subject in recent months, the commissioners refused to give investigators the names of customers of the subsidiary "Credito Industriale Sammarinese.
the most curious thing is that this time, it appears that there were no specific complaints from the authorities of San Marino. A veto on the matter, taking refuge behind banking secrecy, seems to have been just the 'Institute of Rimini.
No names short.
these are probably two main causes of the commissioner.
Among them, however, there is a difference important.
If the primary motivation, we can speak of a real political and commercial operation in the second case the situation is-if possible-even more cloudy.
And 'in fact understand the reluctance of the board of directors of the bank Rimini in not wanting to be bound by the dictates imposed from above, but it is not at the attitude of protection that they to the names of customers of the bank of San Marino. While there is nothing to hide, why hide behind the secrecy?
It 's a bit like one of us, wrongly accused of a crime before a court, did not want to name names of his friends (also innocent). While the accusation is unfounded, because the risk of angering the judge?
The suspicion that there was something to hide, for example, was born going to look at the positions held of the Board of Directors of Cassa di Risparmio di Rimini, San Marino and the Industrial Credit.
then jump out links that make the famous "flea in his ear." For example, the case of Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Cassa di Risparmio di Rimini, also director of the Industrial Credit San Marino and at the same time, even Advisor to the Board of Directors of Rotary Club Rimini Riviera.
A few mischievous in fact, might consider the possibility that among the things to hide, there was also a link to their association with the famous philanthropist (Rotary Club), which during its long history has been repeatedly put under examination by "Civiltà Cattolica", che attraverso tre articoli (16 Giugno 1928, 21 Luglio 1928 e 16 Febbraio 1929) si occupò della questione massonico-rotaryana , che veniva definita come: "un'emanazione massonica, una nuova specie di massoneria che opera in pieno giorno". Anche Don Curzio Nitoglia, riportando la sua testimonianza, in un articolo ne parla in questi termini:
"In breve, il Rotary Appare come una massoneria pubblica e come l'anticamera di quella esoterica e segreta, ove i massoni possono facilmente pescare delle persone, che vi sono entrate per ingenuità, per farne dei fratelli a tre puntini."
unclear The first story that links the San Marino Rotary Club and from the former military officer in the Italian Giorgio Hugo Balestrieri, Vice President of the Rotary Club of New York.
Giorgio Hugo Balestrieri was he who, together with Angelo Boccardelli, in 2006 he received the keys of the Foundation dedicated famous ambassador of San Marino Giacomo Maria Ugolini.
But at this point that the issue takes an ugly turn. Why December 22, 2009, Ros enter the premises of the Ugolini Foundation, the luxury hotel Villa Vecchia Monte Porzio Catone, stop and Angelo Boccardelli and other people, all with heavy charges of Mafia association and links with the 'Ndrangheta. They also try to Balestrieri, but is safe in New York.
For the District Anti-Mafia Directorate of Reggio Calabria, the Foundation was one of the terminals business the 'Mole ndrina of Gioia Tauro.
What's more, the links with San Marino do not stop there, as the company that sponsored Conferences Foundation Ugolini was no other than Eutelia SpA, famous for its many vicissitudes that more than once, led investigators on Titan.
'm just guessing, but they are also interesting insights. It would certainly be easier to have the certainty that we are wrong, that are just coincidences.
To be sure, however, in the past would have had to raise the curtain on an exasperated banking secrecy that for too long now penalizes the view of San Marino and abroad, muddying our flag. our history.
"Human beings are divided into three categories: those who prefer to have nothing to hide, rather than being obliged to lie, those who prefer to lie that he had nothing to those who love both hide and lie and hide. "
