Recognition and awards

Bankinter is the Spanish company that most improved its reputation in the year, according to the results of the RepTrak Pulse España 2014 study.

The Bank climbed to 24th place in the ranking of the 100 most attractive companies to work for in Spain, produced by Merco Personas.

A benchmark in the financial sector. Bankinter increases its corporate reputation among Spanish consumers year after year. This is shown by the results obtained in 2014 by the RepTrak Pulse and Merco Personas studies. The former, prepared by the Reputation Institute, evaluates the seven key aspects of corporate reputation: leadership, integrity, innovation, financial results, citizenship, offering of products and services and working environment. It was in these last three aspects that Bankinter improved most.

The Bank climbed 13 places in the Rep Track Pulse overall ranking, to fifth place among the 16 financial institutions studied. This represents a gain of 6.8 points on the ‘Pulse’ index, which measures the admiration, respect, trust and favourable impressions aroused by a company.

In the 2014 Merco Personas ranking, Bankinter rose by 29 places from last year, to number 24 among the 100 companies with most talent that were selected for study. This rise was the biggest one recorded by the corporate reputation monitor, which identifies the most attractive  companies to work for in Spain according to criteria such as working environment, strong employer brand and internal reputation. The annual ranking produced by the Actualidad Económica magazine with the names of the 100 Spanish companies people would most like to work for also endorses the Bank's performance in the field of people management. Bankinter rose to 21st place in the overall ranking, and fourth in the financial sector.

Bankinter rose to 21st place in the overall ranking, and fourth in the financial sector. During 2014 the Bank also received numerous awards for innovation, sustainability and quality of management, which are strategic pillars of the Bank, and this contributes to strengthening its image and reputation. International investors also acknowledge its high degree of solvency, the quality of its balance sheet and its good performance, as reflected both in its strong gains on the stock market and its upgrade to investment grade by the major credit rating agencies.
