In a scenario where tax credits and mergers are taken into account, the shortfall is €53.7 billion.
Audit results stated that 7 banks need capital while other 7 don't. Alone, Bankia capital shortfall is €24.7 billion, while taking all the nationalized banks together, Bankia, CatalunyaBank, NovaGalicia Banco and Banco de Valencia, the capital need is €46.2 billion.
As expected, the two largest banks, Santander and BBVA, plus CaixaBank, Banca Civica, Sabadell, CAM, and Bankinter do not need to increase their capital even to face the adverse scenario raised by the consultant.
