Santander

Since 1965, Aires de Jaén, a Spanish business that exports extra virgin olive oil, has blended tradition with innovation. It has leaped from a family-run business to a prestigious international brand being sold in more than 50 countries. Despite global challenges, this third-generation business thrives, exporting nearly 4 million litres of premium “liquid gold” annually. With Banco Santander's support, Aires de Jaén has grown, expanded internationally and strengthened their product while boosting rural Spain through job creation and sustainable practices. Their story is part of the Allí donde estés ("Wherever you are") initiative that brings together Santander customers who share their vision of what progress means and how the bank has helped them bring their businesses to life. The real-life stories highlight SMEs, entrepreneurs, farmers and many more people who showcase their journeys and successes. 🔗 Discover Aires de Jaén's full story and explore other businesses here: https://lnkd.in/de-FW6Pk #AllíDondeEstés #InspiringStories

Spain's economy has demonstrated remarkable resilience in the face of global uncertainties, according to the latest International Monetary Fund (IMF) annual report on the country. With a GDP growth of 2.5% in 2023 and projections of 2.4% for 2024, Spain's economic outlook remains strong. However, political fragmentation, geopolitical risks, and inflation pose potential threats. The IMF recommends a medium-term fiscal consolidation strategy to sustain growth, reduce public debt, and ensure pension sustainability. This includes broadening tax bases and addressing inefficiencies rather than relying on windfall levies. In general, the report considers that windfall levies do not constitute a growth-friendly consolidation strategy.
