The company thus solidifies its standing as a leader in digital banking not only in Spain, but worldwide. 

The awards which celebrate their 23rd year, select the world's best banks in the areas of digitisation and innovation, judging them on, among others, their strategy to attract and serve digital customers, the growth in the number of digital customers, innovative portfolios of products and services, as well as the comfort and convenience of using their digital tools and applications.

Those financial institutions that best introduced new and improved products and services are being honored as Global Finance’s World’s Best Digital Banks 2022".

The company's digital service channels in Spain (PC + mobile phone) have a combined penetration rate of 44%.

When it comes to the "Best Digital Consumer Bank for Online Deposit, Card and Investment Product Offerings in the World 2022" award, CaixaBank has advanced tools to simplify its customers' everyday banking needs, such as the OCEAN digital investment service, which offers an easy and intuitive way to look for and compare investment funds, and BrokerNow, a platform that lets its customers buy and sell stocks, check national and international markets and indexes and stay up to date on current news.

As for the Best Digital Consumer Bank for Bill Payment & Presentment in the World 2022" award, CaixaBank has reinforced its capabilities in recent years in the area of invoices, cheques and payments. The option to “Transfer bills from other banks” has helped our customers to streamline how they manage and control all their finances.
