Italian companies, Mediobanca: here are the "champions" of each sector

Enel confirms itself as a sample of profits among Italian companies, even if it also holds the record of financial debts: it highlighted this Mediobanca in 54th edition of the study on the Main Italian Companies.
Mediobanca's analysis has X-ray the balance sheets of 3,452 companies, to then identify the respective "samples" for each sector (see the chart below).
Of the top 20 Italian corporate groups, eight are under public control, six are under Italian private control and six are foreign owned.

Companies with more debt

Enel confirms itself as a "champion" for financial debts, with 56 billion at the end of 2018, but it is also earlier in terms of profit, with 8.6 billion in 2017-2018.
In the ranking of profits there are two big companies controlled by the public sector: Eni (7.5 billion) and Poste (2.1 billion). The first three positions, writes Mediobanca, remain unchanged even considering only 2018.

Companies with more employees

The company with the largest number of employees remains Poste Italiane, with over 134 thousand units, despite the decline of 2.7%; Poste precedes Ferrovie dello Stato (82.944 units), Luxottica (82.358) and Edizione (82.100). Followed by more than 50 thousand employees, Enel (69.272) and Telecom Italia (57.901).

Focus on the banking sector

No surprise: UniCredit and Intesa Sanpaolo remain leading the banking companies with 828 and 778.6 billion of tangible total assets. To follow, with wide spread, Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (370 billion) and Banco Bpm (159.2).
The incidence of non-performing loans further improves in the financial statements: "In the last three years the institutes have taken steps to reduce the mass of net impaired loans in banks' balance sheets, which went from 198 billion in 2015 to 129 billion in 2017 and 86 billion in 2018, decreasing by another 30% approximately ”.
