The Corner

The Corner The only financial & economic site in English which originates in Spain and targets international readers. Sharp insight on current economic issues.

The Corner provides valuable perspective on the markets, economic developments and what's ahead from a collection of voices reporting from across the globe. The Corner is the only financial and economic website in English which originates in Spain and targets an international audience. The Corner has been talking about project bonds since the beginning of 2012, well ahead of any news outlet of the

Anglo-Saxon quartet. We published op-eds with Spanish traders and fund managers asking for further ECB involvement when the general mindset was against it. But what really sets us apart is our insightful analysis in English of Spanish economic, financial and political issues, provided by our team of prestigious local journalists and economists. In terms of Spanish equities, we focus on the small and medium-sized companies which sometimes don't come under investors' radar, but yet can be jewels in the crown of anyone's portfolio. Committed to the idea of Europe, yet independent, we advocate for market freedom and Western democracy, while maintaining a critical viewpoint. So take a look at our website: www.thecorner.eu and let's start debating! Tweet us or...
