Ana Martínez-Pina «Sins that lead the Spanish Stock Market to irrelevance» | El Confidencial
Ana Martínez-Pina, writes in this article in El Confidencial about the measures that could be taken to make it more attractive for Spanish companies to go public.
“Legislative measures could be adopted to lighten both the process of going public and the obligations that companies have when they are already listed, always bearing in mind that transparency and investor protection in a listed company entail additional obligations, which are not required of a company that does not have access to the market and to small savers”.
