Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
An important agreement was signed between the banking group Monte dei Paschi di Siena and the sectoral trade unions for the internal restructuring of the company. The agreement foresees a reduction of the bank's workforce by 500 workers and the contemporary hiring of 250 workers for the commercial department.
Exits will be voluntary and will take place by November 1, 2020 through the use of the sectoral solidarity fund, which will also support the hirings which will instead take place in the two-year period 2020-2021.
The restructuring agreement is consequent to the shocking losses of €845 million suffered by the company in the first semester of 2020.
