Banca Popolare di Puglia e Basilicata was formed by several mergers of cooperative banks from the southern Italy.
Banca Popolare della Murgia was formed in 1972 by the merger of Banca Cooperativa Agraria di Gravina (found 1883) and Banca Mutua Popolare Cooperativa di Altamura (found 1888). In 1994 the bank absorbed Cassa Rurale e Artigiana dell'Icona di Tursi, a bank from nearby Basilicata region.
In 1995 Banca Popolare della Murgia absorbed Banca Popolare di Taranto (found 1889) to form Banca Popolare di Puglia e Basilicata. In the same year the bank also acquired Banca Popolare della Provincia di Foggia. From 1996 to 2001 the bank also absorbed Banca di Credito Cooperativo dell'Alto Bradano di Banzi, Banca di Credito Cooperativo Vulture Vitalba di Atella and some business units of Banca di Credito Cooperativo degli Ulivi – Terra di Bari and Banca di Credito Cooperativo di Corleto Perticara.
