The management and culture of the Cajas Savings banks in Spain- the Cajas in Galicia
02/25/2010
The Cajas, local savings banks, evolved in the post Franco years into banking institutions that controlled significant deposits and expanded into the real estate sector. This happened under Cajas leaders who ran the cajas for many years and became highly influential in the political system. After the bubble burst these Cajas had to be consolidated under new management by the federal government in Madrid. Prime minister Rajoy of Spain comes from the same region of Galicia in northwestern Spain. Today the Cajas are seen as a symbol of the bubble years and lack of financial controls.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
