Intesa Sanpaolo encourages hiring through “S-Loan Soluzione Lavoro” initiative
7 July 2025
Intesa Sanpaolo encourages Italian companies to make high-tech investments that can increase productivity and, in turn, boost long-term employment.
To this end, it has launched the “S-Loan Soluzione Lavoro”, an innovative financing measure developed by Banca dei Territori. It features a bonus mechanism for corporate customers investing in new hires—particularly young people and women.
Intesa Sanpaolo has earmarked €10 billion for “S-Loan Soluzione Lavoro”, within the broader €410 billion the Group has allocated to support Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP).
“Our goal, with the €10 billion made available, is not just to provide fresh financial resources to companies, but to promote technological investments tied to concrete hiring commitments"
Stefano Barrese, Head of Intesa Sanpaolo's Banca dei Territori Division
Investing in technology while integrating young talent can serve as a new growth engine for the country.
The initiative is aimed at corporate clients of Banca dei Territori and draws inspiration from the IRES tax incentive model.
The formal commitment to hire new staff is the necessary requirement for enterprises to obtain the subsidy on the reference rate of the loan both at the underwriting stage and during the amortisation period.
