CaixaBank has received AENOR certification for its Tax Compliance Management System, demonstrating the bank’s commitment to applying the highest standards of excellence and transparency in tax compliance policies.
The AENOR certification was achieved following a comprehensive audit process that assessed the mechanisms for establishing and supervising tax policies and strategies at CaixaBank, as well as the robustness of the design and implementation of the bank’s tax management and control system.
For CaixaBank, AENOR’s recognition is an endorsement of the success of the bank’s tax action model for the control and management of tax risk, a key tool for generating improvements in the tax sphere. In 2021, CaixaBank managed the payment of a total of €4,074 million in taxes, including both the taxes corresponding to its activity and the collection of third parties.
This certification was awarded to CaixaBank by AENOR in accordance with the requirements established in the UNE 19602 standard, which is the adaptation of international compliance standards to the tax sphere, also integrating the recommendations of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
Deloitte Legal advised Caixabank with a Tax team led by partner Miguel Gutiérrez, together with principal associate Jorge Martín Girola Mariño, senior associate Susana Romero Steensma and associate Valeria Ribes Ramos.
