Even so, this concentration of financial services may have negative effects on banking competition and social inclusion.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A week ago, the CEO of Banco Sabadell, <\/span><b>C\u00e9sar Gonz\u00e1lez Bueno, was convinced that the hostile takeover bid would not go ahead because of the evolution of the stock premium<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u2018I don&#8217;t think it will happen, it&#8217;s too complicated\u2019. In any case, a month after it was leaked that BBVA was preparing a merger offer with Sabadell, the debate over banking consolidation is back on the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the Spanish government is reticent about the operation, arguing that it will increase banking concentration and therefore<\/span><b> hurt employment, the provision of financial services and financial stability<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the European Union welcomes any bank consolidation that helps to eliminate alleged overcapacity and improve cost efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bank consolidation refers to the process by which financial institutions merge or are acquired by other institutions,<\/span><b> resulting in fewer banks with a larger market share<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In Europe, this phenomenon has accelerated in recent years, driven by several economic and regulatory factors and with the support of the European Central Bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>The creation of the banking union<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the financial crisis of 2008 and subsequent sovereign debt crises,<\/span><b> the need to improve supervision and regulation of the EU financial sector became evident<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, especially regarding the eurozone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this context, the European banking union was established in 2014 to <\/span><b>ensure the financial stability, safety, and soundness of the banking sector in the euro area and the EU <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as a whole. This is achieved through a single rulebook consisting of a set of legislative texts that must be complied with by all banks operating in the member states.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are currently more than 4,500 active banks in the EU, a large part of which are small and medium-sized institutions. The ECB argues that such mergers, especially cross-border, could be conducive to <\/span><b>risk diversification and financial market integration<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It also points out that the new rules and this bank consolidation close loopholes and thus contribute to a more efficient functioning of the single market.<\/span><\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"component gallery\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col col-lg-10 offset-lg-1\">\n        <div id=\"slider_1\" class=\"carousel slide\" data-wrap=\"false\" data-interval=\"false\">\n          <div class=\"carousel-inner\">\n            <div class=\"carousel-item active\">\n              <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"d-block w-100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.11onze.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HERO_IMAGE_concentracio_bancaria_Grafica1.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n              <div class=\"carousel-caption\">\n                <p>\u201cThe main mergers in the Spanish banking sector after the financial crisis\u201d<br \/>\n<strong>Source.<\/strong> \u00c1lvaro Merino (2023) EOM<\/p>\n\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"component text\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n\n\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col  col-lg-8  offset-lg-2\">\n        <h3><b>The darker side of consolidation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The current banking concentration in Spain is plain to see when we remember <\/span><b>the number and diversity of building societies present three decades ago<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, when they had half the market share of the banking business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bailout of the Spanish banking sector with public money reduced their business and capacity.

This will be no easy task, given that the promiscuous relationship between the political class and the banking sector has for decades been part of a system where looking after the public interest is not a priority.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>If you want to discover the best option to protect your savings, enter <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/serveis.11onze.cat\/en\/preciosos-11onze\"><b>Preciosos 11Onze<\/b><\/a><b>.
