Italy’s biggest bank UniCredit is to lay off 6000 staff in Italy and close 450 branches, it told unions on Monday.
The payoffs and closures are contained in a 2019-2023 plan.
Some 500 are redundancies from a recently completed plan and 5,500 are new redundancies linked to the Team23 plan, the bank said.
It communicated the plan to unions in order to be able to start procedures.
