Spanish bad bank loans have hit a new record high – Business Insider
Spanish banks' bad loans rose to a record high in June as assets tied
to the country's deflating property market soured further, keeping the
financial sector at the forefront of investor concerns about the
country's fragile economy.
In the same month that Spain sought a European bailout of up to 100
billion euros for its struggling lenders, their non-performing loans
rose to 9.42 percent of outstanding portfolios from 8.95 percent in May,
central bank data showed on Friday.
Loans that fell into arrears increased by 8.4 billion euros ($1.03 billion) to 164.4 billion euros.
