Banco Popular Espaņol, S.A.
 PROFILE
Banco Popular Espaņol certainly lives up to its middle name. One of Spain's top banks (after giants Banco Santander Central Hispano and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria), Banco Popular offers commercial and retail banking services through some 2,000 branches. Wary of trends, the bank operates mainly at home, where it specializes in commercial loans to small and midsized businesses. But it is carefully taking on new markets and products, as well; it has launched an online bank, owns a bank in France, and has commercial accords with foreign banks. It also manages and administers mutual funds and offers asset management, life insurance, online banking, and securities trading.
