FundsPeople and Merco reveal the private banking firms and fund managers with the best reputations in Spain and analyse the sector’s strengths and challenges
03/06/2026

On Wednesday June the 3rd, FundsPeople, in collaboration with Merco, presented the results of the second edition of the “Sector Study on Reputation in Asset and Wealth Management in Spain”. This initiative analyses the reputation of private banking firms and fund managers based on assessments by investment sector professionals themselves.
In this second edition, the analysis of the reputational profile confirms the strength of the institutions operating in Spain, with particularly positive results in areas such as “value of the offering”. However, the detailed analysis of strengths and weaknesses also provides a clear roadmap of the areas on which the sector should focus.
