According to its by-law, BAM had to pay the foundation 2 billion lire (€1.033 million) annually. Since the bank was absorbed into Banca MPS in 2008, Banca MPS inherited the responsibility instead. However, Banca MPS refused to honor the contract. In 2015 the foundation seek arbitration for the non-payment for three years.[2]

In the past BAM had rights to name 5 directors, while other 4 directors were named by the comune of Mantua, the Province of Mantua and the Accademia Nazionale Virgiliana.[3]

The headquarter of the foundation was located in Palazzo del Diavolo, 15 corso Vittorio Emanuele II. The building was the old headquarter of the bank. However, the bank moved to 30 corso Vittorio Emanuele II in 1949, which currently a branch of Banca MPS.[4] Palazzo del Diavolo was opposite to a branch of UniCredit (ex-Cariverona branch).[5]
