Investor Relations

Transparency and commitment

Bankinter's commitment to providing relevant information on its performance and activities, as well as the Group's current and future business strategies, remains a key role of the Investor Relations area, which is guided by the principles of equality, fluidity and transparency required by regulators.

To maintain this commitment, each year, this area carries out, among others, the following activities:

  • Quarterly presentation (January, April, July and October) of the Group's results by teleconference or webcast, at which more than 150 financial analysts and different institutional investors and managers from around the world are usually in attendance.
  • Attendance at conferences, seminars or meetings held by the main stock markets and national and international investment banking companies in different regions (United States, Europe, Asia). At this forum, direct contact is made or oneon-one meetings are held with different stakeholders (institutional investors, portfolio managers, financial analysts, private bankers, etc.).
  • More than 300 meetings a year held with institutional investors and qualified investors at Bankinter's head office on Paseo de la Castellana, either in individual sessions or in small groups organised by brokers or more directly with the Corporate Access departments at each institution.
  • Roadshows to visit investors or potential investors in the main financial capitals around the world (including New York, London, Paris, Rome, Frankfurt, Zurich and Geneva) and lately in the Nordic countries again (Denmark, Finland and Sweden). The topics discussed on the roadshows include the economic and political outlook for Spain, the European regulatory framework and the state of the local property market.

At 31 December 2018, 46% of the Bank's shares were held by non-resident, mostly institutional, investors, with a high proportion maintained year after year. With a view to expanding the geographical base of shareholders, Bankinter is constantly researching new markets and has recently looked at Poland and Ireland.

Sustainability

The Investor Relations are occupies a relevant and necessary position in the growing relationship that the bank maintains with the different agencies specialising in sustainability, to respond to the growing demand and sensitivity of international investors to aspects other than financial matters, such as good corporate governance, environmental protection or respecting social issues in all our activities.

These agencies, as well as proxy advisors (consulting firms that advise institutional investors on the decisions made at Shareholders' Meetings), produce rankings, reports and indexes, in which Bankinter always appears as one of the most sustainable companies in our market.

Following the successful inclusion of Bankinter on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe (DJSI) in 2017, last year, and in recognition of the Bank's strong sustainability management, we were included for the first time on the Dow Jones World Sustainability Index, occupying a welldeserved thirteenth position from amongst the 27 banks on the list. Once again, Bankinter’s financial stability, customer relations management, anti-corruption policies and measures, labour practices indicators and human capital development were its most highly rated attributes.
