It was more "who" and not what. In this time in Italy the cities were city states and controlled by powerful families. One of the most powerful families was the Medici of Florence. They had family members as popes, financiers, bankers, traders, and had their own army. They were the patrons of the arts and the church. They were a dynasty. They basically built Florence and when you go there today they are the statues in the squares and the palaces you visit.
The Medici were the richest most powerful merchants and bankers. Plus, they had a pope in the family which gave a lot of power and they had one of the most powerful paid armies in the area.
The Medici banking family was the leading patron of Renaissance Florence.
powerful commercial bankers
The Renaissance was a time of kings and queens. There were no elected officials to any office and that won't happen for another 400 years. The Medici were very powerful and were like kings in Florence. They were bankers, sponsored art and architecture, and had a pope who was a family member.
Their wealth came from being bankers. They were the bankers to the Pope and pretty much all powerful rulers in Europe. They had banks throughout Europe.
Florence became wealthy because of trade and banking, during the crusades many ships would bring soldiers to fight and often they transported and traded. Also, since bankers handled the Church's transactions, they gained a large portion of those transactions, the Medici family originated as bankers and traders and became wealthy from it.

So, you can thank those Florentine bankers for helping kickstart the Age of Exploration.
