17 New Openings In addition to the Strategic Plan, the Group has drawn up a plan to increase the number of its branches between 2005 and The new branches will be localised in the regions next to Liguria (Lombardia, Piemonte, Emilia Romagna, Toscana), in order to enforce the brand where it already exists. The Plan foresees 82 openings (59 with Carige brands and 23 with brands of the other banks of the Group). The localisation of the new branches responds to two main principles: - market attractiveness: client potential, competition. - achievement of a minimum market share: in the most attractive areas, we have selected those where the new openings allow us to achieve a market share of 5 p.c., which we consider to be the minimum (market share) to grant a sufficient presence to develop the business. -17-
