Loans for SMEs and the self-employed

The BBVA Group ended the first quarter of 2026 with 5.4 percent growth in financing for companies (a segment that also includes the public sector) compared to December, surpassing €280 billion. This increase, above the 4.0 percent growth of the total loan portfolio¹, reflects the momentum in the segment and reinforces companies as one of the bank’s strategic priorities.

From January to August 2025, BBVA reached €3.1 billion in agrifood business, a 69 percent increase over the same period in 2024. Of this amount, €2.09 billion corresponded to sustainable business, with 82 percent YoY growth. BBVA announced these figures at Fruit Attraction, one of the world’s top fruit and vegetable trade fairs, held this week in Madrid.
