All Swiss cantonal banks except the TI one are called Kantonalbank, Banque Cantonale, Banca Cantonale. Meanwhile, in Ticino it’s called BancaStato. It is also the only one to use a completely different font for its logo (BEKB/BCBE font is also different but not that much). This always surprises me. Does anyone know why they chose not to follow the nationwide branding? It’s not just a matter of language, as the GR one is called Banca Cantonale Grigione in Italian. Does the bank have a different legal status than its counterparts, or does the term “banca cantonale” have negative connotations in Ticino? submitted by /u/VoidDuck
