Italy's competition watchdog has launched an investigation
against Intesa Sanpaolo SpA for alleged unfair business practice in
the marketing of real-estate mortgages.
The Italian Competition Authority, or AGCM, said Tuesday that
the bank allegedly didn't provide adequate information to costumers
in pre-contractual documents for fixed-rate and variable-rate
mortgages.
In particular, AGCM said Intesa Sanpaolo allegedly didn't
provide guidance on how to calculate the time between the
disbursement of a loan and the first monthly payment of the plan,
which lengthens the period of mortgage repayment, increasing its
cost.
Intesa Sanpaolo wasn't immediately available for comment.
