Summary:

This book examines the rise and fall of two prominent Spanish financial institutions, Banco Popular and Caja Madrid, which later merged into Bankia. It explores their journey from achieving unparalleled excellence in the banking sector to their eventual collapse during the financial crisis. The author delves into the governance, leadership, and financial practices that contributed to their downfall, alongside broader systemic issues such as speculative credit policies, regulatory failures, and the impact of the global financial crisis of 2008. Intended for readers interested in economics, finance, and banking history, the book offers a critical analysis of the vulnerabilities in Spain's banking sector and the societal consequences of unchecked financial practices.
