la Caixa

About

The Caja de Ahorros y Pensiones de Barcelona, "la Caixa", is the result of the merger, in 1990, of the Caja de Pensiones, founded in 1904, and the Caja de Barcelona, founded in 1844. Since its beginnings, "la Caixa" was primarily dedicated to family saving and to offer all its clients an insurance for old age, when this type of welfare service still did not exist in Spain. Thus, since its origins, "la Caixa" has been characterised by a strong social commitment and a vocation to work in favour of the general interest, both through its financial activity and its Welfare Projects, which finance and maintain activities of a social, cultural and scientific nature. This vocation to serve has been maintained and consolidated throughout this period. Thus "la Caixa" is currently the leading savings bank in Spain and the third largest financial entity in the country. With a large network of more than 5,300 offices, almost 8,000 automatic cashpoint machines, a staff of more than 27,000 employees
