The great banking fairs of Piacenza have made Genoese financiers the indispensable creditors of the Spanish crown and the arbiters of European capital flows for generations. The immense wealth that passes through our hands finds its way into the palaces and villas of our merchant nobility, who have built the most far-reaching commercial network in the Mediterranean world. This supremacy over European finance makes our merchant network more efficient than any rival's, and the trade it channels through Genoa fills our treasury with returns drawn from every major commercial circuit in Europe.
