Italian banking sector student scholarship initiatives

Overview

Several Italian financial institutions have introduced new scholarship and research funding initiatives. BPER Banca launched the 60th edition of its scholarship program, providing 300 grants of 500 euros each to meritorious students. The program targets both upper secondary school students and high school graduates, provided they meet specific residency, banking relationship, and economic criteria, such as a 2026 ISEE below 30,000 euros.

Other regional and foundation-led efforts include educational awards from BCC Carate Brianza e Treviglio and over 1.9 million euros in funding from the UniCredit Foundation. The UniCredit initiatives focus on academic research and PhD scholarships in economics and finance across Europe, organized in collaboration with the European Economic Association.
