In both insurance and banking the Group will focus on retail business and small and medium enterprises. Priority will be given to traditional markets, in other words those with their origins in our longstanding relationship with trade unions, the self-employed organisations, cooperatives and welfare services, in which the Group has considerable expertise and experience. Quality of service will be the objective pursued by employees and agents in order to provide a suitable level of customer satisfaction and uphold Unipol Gruppo Finanziario's reputation for respectability and reliability.»
