La ciaxa is a Barcelona based savings bank with a very large retail network in Spain. It is planning to do a listing to improve its capital base and to enable growth.
After the property boom and bust in 2008 there has been a lot of restructuring in Spanish banks.
LaCaixa avoided being branded as a bad bank and contiunes to offer La caixa credit cards, loans and finance for residential and commercial property.
A La Caixa credit card is not easy to qualify for, and its a similar situation for Lacaixa finance and La-caixa loan agreements.
