Summary:This paper presents assessment results for the current state of the implementation of the Basel Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision (BCP) in Spain. It found that significant changes have occurred in Spain since the last Financial Sector Assessment Program. The most serious has been the deterioration of the economy and the real estate sector. The core supervisory process at the Banco de Espana (BdE) is strong and is supported by qualified staff and an experienced cadre of inspectors, but there are areas of concern.
In recent years, the IMF has released a growing number of reports and other documents covering economic and financial developments and trends in member countries. Each report, prepared by a staff team after discussions with government officials, is published at the option of the member country.
