good morning everyone is an honor for me
among other things being the first to speak
so an honor and a responsibility e
lately I’m responsible
happen quite as carolina said
with that call begins a journey
a path that is generated by a
very negative event for some
even tragic but then for one
strange and fantastic coincidence of things
and meetings feed instead of
anger and resignation with
determination of strength and courage
it all starts with that call where
both me but also thousands of
savers are warned that i
their savings
there are no more of this story there
you will have heard everyone talk of course
tv newspapers
television broadcasts however sometimes a
river full of information ago
lose the compass and then today they are
here to tell you the story from
another perspective from perspective
whose history has lived on it
own skin
let’s say that after the first and moment
initial loss with the meetings
opportune and born a facebook group
everything is born from there it was called victims
I can already find the bank savers with this one
I write myself too
and that thing happens I told you
before instead of only the
resignation
let’s try to put others into play
forces and we organize ourselves
indeed we are also a bit authoritarian because
let’s get everyone out of the group
that vent and just complain and
they say they are desperate because the
despair must always generate
something else is just and
we simply make a statement
step back
before then before zeroing
of the four banks because mine
association represents savers
of the first four banks went and
resolution
no bank had ever failed and little
we knew about the budgets of these institutions
least of all we knew the new one
European directive in
topic of bank bailouts for
this obviously the ship has sunk
with all the savers because the
Government had decided to anticipate
even this provision
European bail in which it provides no more
external rescues with the help of the
status not internal saving using
therefore the assets invested up to
savers’ current accounts
we decide to organize ourselves, we said
I appoint a coordinator for each zone i
institutes are four and they are all of the
central Italy, however, represent
important geographical distances after two
weeks I can organize the first one
manifestation in the square we are in Rome there
We know housewives small employees
retired business people distant people
light years from the alchemies of finance
from stock stunts
and to think that they called us
speculators understand that something
it was hardly just unfair
happened to the newspapers still do not speak
of us we try to this point of
organize ourselves with press offices then
even my job
let’s do a real office
We try to inform the press
journalists of what had happened
at the beginning only i are informed
economic newspapers of course which
they knew well about this directive
European bail but certainly not
they knew and could not imagine a
Which
investors to whom savers
had been intended is here the
problem here is where the scam starts later
the first event we try to
give us a calendar then an event
unexpected the first pensioner that yes
suicide was a bank saver
etruria wake up all the
televisions start not following us
we become the main container of
all transmissions especially those
in the morning but also those of
deepening of the evening
anxiety and anger and despair of
who had lost everything because
I personally think I am
a privileged in this because I have
I lost my mom, too, some money
I lost 100 thousand euros
but it was not all the capital I had
some people have really lost
everything and all their savings e
try to imagine what it means to have
lived an entire existence put by
leave for a child for a relative for
old age and wake up one morning and
know that there is nothing left
look at that in these titles that are
been bought there was not written
subordinated bond was not there
written the risk was not written
anything
it’s a big scam started
from the managers of these banks and endorsed
then unfortunately also from those who
they had to protect from the government from
consob and from bank of italy lo
buck that we are living in
these days is just something that we
we announced two and a half years ago
when people still did not know renzi
after the former premier after course
that we managed to ride all the
TV broadcasts we managed to
go out into newspapers and run for cover
he says that without his decree it would be
erupted armageddon and that would be
go to the employees of the banks
in reality then the same happened
in reality we wanted to use these
savers like laboratory guinea pigs
but we realize it
if we had not taken to the streets if not there
we were organized if we were not
went to speak with the top management
of our zero bank of Italy e
consob the ft of the interbank fund
the minister padoan
here we were talking to
all these representatives
institutional and we understood one thing
thing that can not be understood either
through a newspaper because maybe it’s a
newspaper of part maybe a newspaper that
he does not really say things as they are
went and we understood simply
that this decree had been made with
superficiality that this decree was
deeply wrong because then
it will create a chain effect that we are going
experiencing
people have disinvested from the banks
for fear
obviously being zeroed like us and
started this long crisis that
we are still living and that is not alone
an economic crisis I’ll explain what it is
I can not see the timer because I am
dazzled by light but I hope to have them
still time is what happened
and this since 2013 the banks have
started to have big problems
for the bad management of these of this
cda of these administrators then it is
success that they have practically given
the order in some way to sell
these bonds to a granular public
as a result of our complaints they are
inspections have been carried out inside
of these institutions and has been found
a letter especially to etruria bank
where practically the managers
they forced because if you get to one
higher is a requirement to sell this
type of bonds that recapitalises
in some way the bank because
institutional investors obviously
they were given legs tied up
raised to public retail to you too
there were customers and if so
you obviously trusted the banking of
trust when we realized
this we had the awareness
this is a fundamental word the
awareness of what it was
success and from awareness is
match the appropriate communication
also supported at that point by
economic newspapers, not just Italian but
also foreign because we have been new
times we have been funded
we were all journalists for
explain what happened and many
foreign journalists were amazed
because at least in some nations
it was unthinkable that a saver
as common as we were that one
retired could have in the hands of the
products so risky damage in Italy
a problem that affects many banks
let’s just tell the truth that these
banks have had the misfortune to have
the wrong administrators
what this story teaches frankly
after two years I ask myself too
what was the result of one
battle that took away from us but has me
free time money free time because
I have done a bit in 2 and a half years
tour of all these banks from Ferrara
from brands trying to understand trying
to really give it right
communication and I answer in this
the result we have
obtained is not just the repayment that as well
we got for the bondholders
especially the weaker and
arbitration for those who had a
higher income is not just state
this without our protest anyway
there would not even be this
and the suicides were many more than
those that have been announced to us
we are in contact with all families
the result is not a jump this is
was to understand that thanks to
awareness not staying in the
surface we can see a world
different and to have the right motivation
that does not only push us into the
resignation
when each of us knows that we are in the
just really has the strength and the
will to fight and this is the
little miracle
that we have fought
against absolutely bigger forces
yet we have somehow
also affected them
