Former Spanish bank president faces potential 173-year prison sentence
The Spanish Supreme Court has ordered the trial of BBVA bank and its former CEO, Francisco González, on charges related to bribery and corporate secrets. This comes as part of an investigation into a corporate espionage case that lasted from 2004 to 2016. The charges include a fine of 181.8 million euros for the bank and a prison sentence for González of up to 173 years, although the maximum legal penalty is 15 years, due to his summons before a high court. This case marks the first time former senior executives are facing trial in Spain and raises concerns within the corporate sector amid investigations involving former officials from other companies.
