Italy's UniCredit says carrying out own probe in relation to Capital One data breach

MILAN (Reuters) - Italy's biggest bank by assets UniCredit said on Wednesday it was carrying out its own investigation in relation to a major data breach at capital one Financial Corp.

"On July 30, UniCredit became aware that its name has been mentioned in relation to the Capital One issue.

"UniCredit has contacted the relevant authorities and is actively investigating the matter," UniCredit said in a statement.
