Gian Maria Mossa, CEO and General Manager of Banca Generali, has commented on the bank's financial performance and broader economic trends. In May 2021, he described the first quarter as "one of the best quarters ever," citing record net profit, revenues, and total assets. He attributed much of the quarter's inflows to existing advisors who have embraced the bank's strategy and to the recruitment of new professionals, noting that total assets had grown to over 77 billion euros. Mossa also highlighted the bank's focus on sustainability, stating that "more and more the interest and the result of a company will be used not only for the bottom line but also for the ability to create value for all stakeholders." During the COVID-19 pandemic, Mossa discussed the crisis's impact on investors and the economy. In an April 2020 interview, he stated that the crisis was unique because market declines were not driven by retail investor panic, as "people are worried about not dying, not about what is happening to their investments." He expressed concern that Italian portfolios were "loading up on risk in a not too conscious way" due to the search for yield in a low-interest-rate environment. Mossa has also spoken about regulatory changes, describing the MiFID II directive as an opportunity for transparency but expressing concern about its timing, as markets "have already done a lot" and investors might face higher disclosed costs during a less supportive market phase. He has characterized fintech as "not a problem but a great opportunity," particularly for improving operational efficiency and client platforms.
