In the words of our CEO Aner Garmendia CEO since the founding of the Company, back in 1990, our ethical behavior and integrity, honest and independent conduct, has undoubtedly constituted one of the best ways to be different and successful. We are absolutely convinced that our behavior and ethical principles are decisive factors to continue generating the trust that allows us to continue creating value for all our stakeholders and guarantee the profitability and sustainability of the business.
