The new entity, which will retain the name Canal Bank, will have 11 branches in the provinces of Panama, West Panama, Chiriquí, Herrera and Coclé. In January, the Superintendency of Banks authorized the sale of 70 percent of the shares of Banco Universal to Canal Bank. The sale was prompted by the takeover of Bacno Universal due to several violations related to the investigation of Felipe "Pipo" Virzi, whose family owned the bank. Virzi was being investigated for alleged irregularities connected to the failed irrigation system in Tonosi, Los Santos. http://www.prensa.com/in_english/Banco-Universal-Canal-Bank-sucursales_21_4576252335.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
