gymnasiums, spa and club house with restaurant, bar and swimming pool, in order to encourage the approach
by the younger generations to the world of tennis and create a community meeting space;
• the sponsorship of 3 young up-and-coming athletes and one senior professional athlete as part of the
“Casa del tennis” (House of tennis) project run by the Vicenza Tennis Club, which seeks to help young athletes
express the best of their potential and thus prepare them for high-level tennis through constant support and
monitoring of their growth and improvement, thanks to customised teaching;
• the sponsorship of the golf tournament in Pro-Am formula with 33 teams on the course in a route through
the centuries-old plants of the park of the eighteenth century Villa Condulmer in the province of Treviso. The
Pro-Am formula is a team match where a professional plays with three amateurs, with a view to expanding
upon the knowledge, practice and passion in regard to this sport.
Moreover, Banca Ifis acknowledges the values of sport not only as a good educational practice, but also as a vehicle to
convey well-being and growth for the company and organisations. This is why the Group is a national partner of the
World Alpine Skiing Championships of Cortina 2021 and Official Partner for FISI 2020/2021, as well as sponsor of the
Umana Reyer Venice, both men’s and women’s basketball team, with both teams in the top Italian leagues and
sponsorship of the great classics of national cycling and Parma Calcio involved in serie A championship football.

For 2020, 10% (17% in 2019) of total events organised, in which the Bank played an active part or indeed which it
sponsored, involved the local communities of the territories involved each time. This engagement was purely for social,
informative or educational benefit.
A total of Euro 583.000 (Euro 171.000 in 2019) were allocated to events involving the community, making for a 240%
increase over 2019.
29 The percentage was calculated taking into account all activities carried out in 2020 for charity/social/information/educational purposes -
without, therefore, entailing direct business objectives - targeting a broad, general public representing the local communities of the territories
involved each time, specifically 184 events (58 events in 2019) participated in or sponsored by the Group.
