BBVA has participated in the main transactions in the sector, including those listed in the table of the preceding page.

Within the framework of tenders management, the work carried out over 2010 was excellent, as BBVA was awarded more than 50% of the contracts for which it applied, including the Spanish Social Security system’s enforced collection units and the comprehensive management of MUFACE, Mutualidad General de Funcionarios Civiles del Estado.
