SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Sep. 2 (EUROPE PRESS) –
CaixaBank has granted a total of 473 million euros to companies in the Canary Islands during the first six months of the year, which represents a growth of 65% compared to the same period of the previous year, and implies a total of 987 operations, 16% more compared to the first half of 2021.
This volume of credit, aimed at small, medium and large companies on the islands, has been used mainly to inject liquidity and finance investments for the growth of their businesses.
CaixaBank also offers companies various lines of specialized financing, such as factoring, confirming or renting, to guarantee both the working capital needs of companies and long-term investments.
Juan Ramón Fuertes, territorial director of CaixaBank in the Canary Islands, has stressed in a note “the financial institution’s confidence in the Canarian business fabric as a key driver of economic growth in the archipelago” and highlighted that “CaixaBank’s support for the business sector goes far beyond the financial field, offering advice and support to entrepreneurs in managing their day-to-day activities”.
This support from CaixaBank to the business fabric is also articulated through the management of access to the European Funds for Recovery (Next Generation EU).
With the aim of being an active agent in disseminating the aid available and speeding up its arrival to beneficiaries, CaixaBank offers an aid search engine to provide customers and non-customers with access to these funds.
This search engine allows you to consult the existing options depending on the beneficiary, economic sector of the recipient, type of aid, call and province.
Access to this digital platform, which has been developed by Minsait (Indra group), can be done from CaixaBankNow, the bank’s digital platform, and through the CaixaBank Business and CaixaBank Business web portals.
