  • Savings Bank
    Savings Bank A savings bank is a financial institution whose primary purpose is accepting savings deposits and paying interest on those deposits. They originated in Europe during the 18th century with the aim of providing access to savings products to all levels in the population. Often associated with social good these early banks were often designed to encourage low income people to save money and have access to banking services. They were set up by governments or by or socially committed groups or organisations such as with credit unions. The structure and legislation took many different forms in different countries over the 20th century. The advent of internet banking at the end of the 20th century saw a new phase in savings banks with the online savings bank that paid higher levels of interest in return for clients only having access over the web. History In Europe, savings banks originated in the 19th or sometimes even the 18th century. Their original objective was to provide easily accessible savings products to all strata of the population. In some countries, savings banks were created on public initiative, while in others, socially committed individuals created foundations to put in place the necessary infrastructure. In 1914, the New Student's Reference Work said of the origins:[1] France claims the credit of being the mother of savings banks, basing this claim on a savings bank said to have been established in 1765 in the town of Brumath, but it is of record that the savings bank idea was suggested in England as early as 1697.

  • Ten Questions Concerning the Spanish Banking Sector
    TEN QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE SPANISH BANKING SECTOR Santiago Carbó Valverde (University of Granada) Joaquín Maudos Villarroya (Ivie and University of Valencia) “Fate gives us the hand, and we play the cards” William Shakespeare 1. Introduction The Spanish banking sector finds itself at a delicate crossroads at which an important number of questions remain unresolved. Together with the much-awaited economic recovery and the reduction of unemployment, the resolution of the problems of solvency and the need for restructuring which affect financial intermediaries constitute probably the most important and urgent challenges which must be faced in Spain. A solution to these difficulties of the financial system is a necessary condition for sustainable and lasting recovery. If the situation facing the Spanish banking sector is analysed, similarities are clear with other international experiences, but so is a problem specific to Spain –in which the exposure of the banking sector to the domestic property market is significant- which requires its own solutions and which, for various reasons, is making itself felt later than in the majority of neighbouring economies. This time lag –considered by many to be involuntary, since the crisis arrived relatively late to Spain- is becoming a cause for concern since, in specific scenarios, greater efforts than those foreseen may be necessary to tackle the restructuring and reassessment required and avoid a greater crisis. The present article reviews the principal questions concerning Spanish financial intermediaries in the spring of 2010, grouped together into ten points. In addition to this fairly broad but not necessarily exclusive or exhaustive recapitulation, an attempt is made 1 to repudiate certain convictions which have established something of a foothold in recent months and which require clarification.

He contributes to the main Spanish journals in the field, mainly on credit cooperatives and saving banks. Other research topics are the demography and standards of living in the Spanish mining industry. His recent work examines the financial system during the Spanish colonial period in Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Philippines. Despite the progress made in researching the history of savings banks in Spain, there are still aspects that remain largely unknown, especially with regard to their introduction in the colonial environments of Hispanic America and the Philippines. This paper studies these hitherto largely ignored institutions in Cuba and Puerto Rico during the period from 1835 to 1898.1 We are therefore dealing with a subject that is novel and, in our opinion, important in order to better understand the history of this type of entity both in Europe and in other non-European territories.

Despite our hypotheses that Spanish savings banks were similar to German savings banks until the crisis, or at least until liberalisation and before the break‐up of the regional principle, we came to the conclusion that they were never as significant as savings banks in Germany, at least not for SME finance. Notwithstanding recent initiatives to create a common European market and to integrate diverse national banking systems, the European financial system remains spatially complex and uneven, particularly with respect to the degree of geographical concentration.

  • Banking Regulation – 2Nd Edition Chapter: Spain
    BANKING REGULATION – 2ND EDITION CHAPTER: SPAIN Fernando Mínguez Hernández Íñigo de Luisa Maíz Rafael Mínguez Prieto Global Legal Insights, June 2015 Introduction From late 2008, the Spanish banking sector has lived through a constant and deep restructuring process ultimately driven by regulatory responses to the severe crisis the sector faced as a result of the abrupt end of the long period of growth after Spain’s incorporation to the Euro in 1998. Fortunately, the worst of the crisis seems over and we face now a more stable, more transparent and sounder financial sector. Until the beginning of this decade, it was accurate to describe the Spanish banking sector as quite unique among its European counterparts. While the country was, and is, home to two of the world largest banking corporations (Santander and BBVA) – present in other European jurisdictions and outside the EU, most significantly in Latin America – such large corporations did not account for more than 30% of the domestic deposit market share; the rest was in the hands of many other institutions, including a wide array of mid- and small-sized companies. Bank of Spain’s census as of early 2009 comprised some 80 private banks (of which roughly 10 have a significant market share), 80 credit cooperatives (accounting, altogether, for 5% of the share, approximately) and 45 savings banks (cajas de ahorros), representing, roughly, 50% of the market. Branches of foreign institutions (almost exclusively EU-incorporated) were and are present but hold a negligible share of the retail market1. The relevant presence of savings banks was doubtlessly the most salient feature of the Spanish Banking system.

  • International Savings Banks
    INTERNATIONAL SAVINGS BANKS 21 August 2021 The Savings Banks Organisation in Spain Since the end of the 1980s, when the regional principle was abolished, in Spain, cooperation between savings banks has been Author: abandoned in favour of growth of the institutions. Since then, the Jana Gieseler - DSGV number of savings banks in Spain has fallen sharply. In return, the market share of savings banks in the lending business has risen from approx. 28% to approx. 36%. A law passed in July 2010 allowed the separation of the public interest orientation from the banking business. The tasks oriented towards the common good (in Spain: "obra social") remained in the sponsoring savings bank, which was run as a foundation under private law. The banking business could be outsourced to a (listed) bank with the aim of being raising equity capital on the market. While the sponsoring foundations continued to exist for the most part, the bank holding companies experienced two waves of mergers until 2012, which resulted in a complete reorganisation of the sector until 2014. The financial institutions CaixaBank and Bankia merged in March 2021 to form CaixaBank. The merger is considered one of the largest in Spain. Today, there are only eight savings banks left. Two savings banks remained in their old form. The other six are credit institutions derived from savings banks. These are supported by 13 banking foundations (former cajas). The average balance sheet total of these holdings is about EUR 103.5 billion. 1 The Spanish banking market In macroeconomic terms, the banking sector in Spain is of above- average importance compared to other European countries.
