What Fidelitas does
Fidelitas S.p.A. is an Italian security services company headquartered in Bergamo and wholly owned by the diversified industrial group FGH Franco Gnutti Holding S.p.A. The company delivers an integrated portfolio spanning physical guarding (armed and unarmed patrols, access control, event security), alarm systems and 24/7 monitoring (Più Sicuro Ajax-based wireless alarms, intrusion and perimeter sensors), video surveillance and AI-enabled video analytics (Analisi Video AI, Videoronde remote verification), cash and valuables management (armored transport, ATM management, Casseforti Intelligenti smart safes, the Youcash national service, vault and safe-deposit-box facilities in Bergamo and Rome), fire safety and emergency management, risk assessment consulting, and non-armed concierge/reception services via subsidiary Rondaservice s.r.l. Technology infrastructure is anchored by an EN50518-certified Centrale Operativa that coordinates patrol dispatch, alarm triage, and remote video verification around the clock. The business serves banks, large retail chains, industrial and logistics operators, healthcare, education and public administration, hospitality, and private individuals through a national branch network (Bergamo, Milano, Brescia, Torino, Verona, Roma) supplemented by a certified partner channel and a digital self-service portal.
Revenue mechanics combine recurring multi-year guarding and monitoring subscriptions, managed services for cash-in-transit and smart safes, and project-based work for CCTV and fire-safety installations; pricing is quote-based, customized per site visit, with no public rate cards. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales supported by sports sponsorships (Scaligera Basket Verona, Union Brescia, Feralpisalò), earned media, and a consumer-facing online questionnaire funnel feeding Più Sicuro and residential contracts. Fidelitas monetizes across eight core service streams and has been actively consolidating the fragmented Italian market, completing the merger with La Ronda Servizi di Vigilanza in 2022 and acquiring Civis's North-East cash-and-values business unit in March 2025.
The company is positioning for a more technology-driven and advisory-led model, having introduced AI video analytics, rolled out a group-wide CMMS in late 2025, and added criminal-profiling and consulting capabilities — all while reinvesting in branch-level sustainability (photovoltaic systems at Milano, Brescia, and Torino) and scaling the Youcash cash-management platform developed with Credito Bergamasco and Cts Solutions.
