Spain's Foreclosure and Bankruptcy Landscape

In the latest episode of our “European Securitisation Insights” podcast, Mudasar Chaudhry, who leads our European Structured Finance Research team, was joined by Jorge Aranda Rodriguez, Senior Analyst, European Nonperforming & Reperforming Loan Ratings, to discuss Spain's foreclosure and bankruptcy landscape.

Chaudhry and Aranda Rodriguez dived into the latest statistics around foreclosures and bankruptcies in Spain. At first glance, the numbers appear stable as foreclosure filings are at historic lows and the banking system’s nonperforming loan ratio is just 3.2%. However, our analysts noted that these positive indicators may mask a series of underlying vulnerabilities.
