Ana Martínez-Pina talks about the private pension system | Funds People
30 of January, 2025
Ana Martínez-Pina talks about incentives in the private pension system in this Funds People report.
Occupational pension plans have regained attractiveness after years of loss of confidence. The government has promoted measures to encourage these products, such as the creation of simplified occupational pension plans (PES) for the self-employed and publicly promoted occupational pension funds (FPEPP). In addition, the recent reform in December 2024 allowed fund managers to market these plans, which has given a boost to the sector.
This change also coincides with a good year for financial markets, which has encouraged investors to allocate part of their investments to occupational pension plans. However, the industry is still calling for more incentives to strengthen the private pension system, says our Financial Regulatory and Insurance partner Ana Martínez-Pina.
Despite the recovery in the field of occupational schemes, the overall picture of the pension industry shows a moderate growth in assets, mainly due to market revaluations.

Supreme Court judgment on the Campelo wind farm: does it clear the path for wind energy in Galicia?
Supreme Court Judgment no. 316/2025 marks a turning point in the intense litigation surrounding wind energy projects in Galicia. While confirming its doctrine on the public consultation procedure, the Supreme Court clarifies that the fact that several wind farms share evacuation infrastructure does not, in and of itself, establish the existence of a single project for environmental purposes, contrary to what was previously held by the Galician High Court of Justice.

A first ranking mortgage does not prevent a creditor from accelerating loan maturity due to debtor insolvency
If the creditor has a secured claim (even if the debt is covered by the "value of the security", i.e. the claim is in the money), the debtor cannot avoid the effects of the to-term forfeiture by appealing to the existence of that security because the guarantee referred to in Article 1129(1) of the Civil Code (avoiding to-term forfeiture) must then be another additional guarantee.

La existencia de una hipoteca de primer rango no impide que el acreedor pueda declarar el vencimiento anticipado del plazo por insolvencia sobrevenida del deudor
Si el acreedor goza de una garantía real para la seguridad de su crédito (incluso si la deuda está cubierta por el «valor de la garantía», es decir, que el crédito está in the money), el deudor no puede evitar los efectos de la pérdida del plazo apelando a la existencia de aquella garantía real porque la garantía a que se refiere el artículo 1129.1.º del Código Civil (evitadora de la pérdida del plazo) deberá ser entonces otra garantía suplementaria.
