The collaboration between Alpha Bank and UniCredit ensures extroversion and access to better products and services for Greek businesses. This was highlighted in Kathimerini's joint interview with the heads of the two groups, Alpha's Vassilios Psaltis and UniCredit's Andrea Orcel, who explained the benefits of the collaboration in the areas of business banking and wealth management.

The strategic cooperation between Alpha Bank and Italian giant UniCredit is now being applied with the official launch of the onemarkets Fund by UniCredit exclusively through Alpha in Greece.

Alpha Bank chief executive officer Vassilis Psaltis pointed to further expansion and acquisitions in Romania in a joint interview with CEO of Italian bank UniCredit, Andrea Orcel for Bloomberg,

The two CEOs, who have created the third-largest bank in Romania, said they believe in Romania's prospects and see plenty of value there.

Alpha Bank's deal with Italy's second largest bank, UniCredit, was a touch of optimism in the gloomy environment of very low expectations that currently dominates the Greek economy.
