ITAU UNIBCO HLDG ADR PFD1/  US4655621062  /

Since their foundation, Itaú and Unibanco have known how to anticipate market challenges by consolidating their businesses in periods of crisis and expanding them in times of growth. The characteristic way the two institutions expanded - through mergers and acquisitions - became clear in 2008. The company is present in 18 countries other than Brazil, in commercial banking and institutional client operations, and investment, wholesale and private banking activities. Seven of these countries are in Latin America, which is its priority in terms of international expansion. Its operations also comprise North America, Central America, Europe, Asia and Middle East.
