Santander named the World’s Best Bank by Euromoney
Banco Santander has been named the World's Best Bank by Euromoney in its prestigious ‘Awards for Excellence’, recognising the Group's transformation into a simpler, stronger and more connected global bank, underpinned by record results, disciplined capital allocation and sustained investment in technology and global platforms.
The award reflects Santander's strong performance over recent years, including the successful execution of its 2023-2025 strategy, exceeding its key investor targets while delivering a fourth consecutive year of record profit. During the period, Santander increased its customer base to 180 million people worldwide. Euromoney also recognised the bank's ability to strengthen its international franchise through strategic M&A operations and highlighted Santander's continued investment in common global platforms improving customer experience, increasing scalability and reducing operating costs across markets.
In addition to the two global awards, Santander Corporate & Investment Banking (Santander CIB) received several regional recognitions, including Latin America's Best Investment Bank. At country level, the Group receives Best Investment Bank in Spain and Portugal, among other recognitions such as Argentina's Best Investment Bank for Financing Solutions, Colombia's Best Investment Bank for M&A and Peru's Best Investment Bank for Financing Solutions.
