A survey by Deutsche Bank reveals that Spain ranks among the top five European destinations for investment. 30% of senior executives already have investments in the country.

According to Deutsche Bank, Spain is in the top 5 of Europe as a preferred investment destination, based on a survey conducted with 1,200 senior executives from 13 non-European markets. This result reflects the growing appeal of Europe for international investors, who value its economic stability and resilience compared to other regions of the world.

30% of respondents claim to already have investments in Spain.

"The results reflect that Europe is once again perceived as a region capable of combining stability with opportunities for growth and innovation. Spain is part of this trend," highlighted Iñigo Martos, CEO of Deutsche Bank Spain.
Germany leads the ranking with a 55% preference, followed by the United Kingdom, France, and Italy.

More than a third of the executives surveyed consider Europe to be the most attractive region in the world for their businesses, surpassing North America, Latin America, and Asia. Additionally, 81% of senior executives indicate that Europe has increased its significance in their investment decisions over the past three years.

Among the competitive advantages of Europe, 74% of respondents mention growth opportunities, while 71% highlight its capacity for innovation, especially in combination with artificial intelligence. However, the study also indicates that cross-border frictions are an obstacle to fully exploiting the European single market.
