The
BBVA and ODDO BHF partnership will allow the bank to offer top quality analysis of issuers in Spain and Portugal, thanks to a
local team of analysts with an extensive proven track record at BBVA before joining ODDO BHF. This coverage will include both large listed companies in Spain and Portugal as well as a broad number of mid-caps that draw less market coverage. This research capability will enhance BBVA s advisory and execution capabilities within the European capital markets.
In addition to receiving a more complete and comprehensive service as a result of this partnership, BBVA s
corporate clients will also benefit from the distribution capabilities of a leading European equity brokerage platform, with access to over 700 European and American institutional investors.
Iberdrola has formalized one of the largest transaction in the

In addition to the amount, this transaction becomes a market reference for two other reasons. The first of these is that the financing is
referenced to Risk-Free Rates (RFR) instead of LIBOR, indices that will serve as a model for future financing. The IBOR Transition project is one of the biggest challenges in the financial industry today. It consists in replacing the LIBOR index with other more robust and transparent ones (RFR). This operation´s signing represents a milestone and the culmination of efforts focused on adapting BBVA’s systems and processes for the use of these new indices.
