The answers to the economy minister, Luis de Guindos, has submitted to the instructor's Bankia case in the High Court, Fernando Andreu, and seen by the country are an intricate account of his role in the crisis of Bankia. For one Guindos tries to explain that not intervene directly in the output of the entity's president, Rodrigo Rato, said: "At no time asked for the resignation of President Rodrigo while." He adds: "I do not know the reasons for Rato to resign." Reinforces this idea, saying that "never presented a plan" capitalization "of BFA-Bankia for approval to the Ministry of Economy", since it is responsible for the Bank of Spain.
This statement conflicts with the one made by the former governor of the Bank of Spain, Miguel Fernández Ordóñez, who declared that "lost all control" of Bankia when Rato Economy demanded a new plan of capitalization of the entity other than the Bank had already approved of Spain on April 17. The minister insists he never asked "no concrete plans" to president of Bankia, but admits that his department spoke with the company about measures "compelling and credible" to remove doubts hanging over her.
This argument is also contrary to Guindos own stated president of Bankia, which revealed in the High Court that, shortly before his resignation, the Government requested a new plan for the entity, even though the former had been good of the Bank of Spain. Rato said he understood that he had lost the confidence of the Government. Now we have to wait for the decision of the judge on these apparent contradictions.
Rato visits
De Guindos recounts his relationship with Rodrigo Rato, said that he visited on "numerous occasions" to present "various mergers," and in one of the meetings he said that "one of them was nearly complete", but a few days confirmed he had "frustrated". In this situation, Rato raised him "a series of actions" to ensure the viability of the bank, among which were 7,000 million request for additional funding for Orderly Bank Restructuring (FROB). The truth is that Guindos never believed that this plan was enough to revive Bankia and less without a relay in the presidency.

There were also more direct links between economics and Bankia. For example, the minister disclosed that on May 4, the secretary of the Board of Bankia, Miguel Crespo, sent an email to the undersecretary of the Ministry of Economy, Miguel Temboury, which read: "Michael, this is the document we have presented in the Bank of Spain. Greetings ". Surely a message that implies a close relationship.
Despite all contacts, Guindos said that there was no interference in the consolidation plans, which were those for which the output of Rato, but admits closely following everything that was wrong with Bankia. The reason for this monitoring entity is that "by its systemic character, was polluting the perception of the entire financial sector and the risk premium." "Doubts about the solvency of credit institutions involve a greater cost to the taxpayer, "said the minister.
Luis de Guindos added in his statement that "the government had and has the obligation to know what happened in Bankia, without prejudice to the powers of the Bank of Spain that had received government guarantees by 34,953,000 and had 4.465 million in public funds" . To avoid suspicions about the invasion of powers, the Minister said: "It is useful to recall that the Statute of the Bank of Spain, Article 7.2 provides that all the powers reserved to this institution, is required to support policy the government. "
Why acted ministry?
The Minister of Economy reports that in March and April 2012 will create a situation of "general alarm", forcing his ministry to address a number of actions, having drafted a royal decree on provisioning in February. Guindos detail has concerns that submitted the highest responsibility of international organizations (IMF and ECB) by the Spanish financial system and more specifically by Bankia. The first to be discussed was the managing director of the IMF, Christine Lagarde, said the minister. With it held between January and April 3 meeting, in which "the specific situation of BFA-Bankia was the main issue," both because "the magnitude of the problem and the risk of contagion to the rest of the Spanish financial system given its nature systemic entity. "But doubts about the system" and in particular the BFA-Bankia group were also shared by the European Central Bank "by analysts and investment bankers, whose reports constataban the entity" was short of supplies and capital "which," by its systemic character, was polluting the perception "of the whole sector.
On several occasions, the minister reports that one of the problems was that the group controlled 40% of Banco de Valencia, a strong entity that needed recapitalization, and that was "tapped on November 21, 2011, a day after the general election and a few months after the IPO of Bankia "in a footnote that certainly points to collusion between the former team of the Bank of Spain and the Socialist government.
This whole situation is getting worse, according to this account, because the solution of Bankia "necessarily required to go beyond" compliance approved. Economy held talks with the Bank of Spain and the entity and "discussed various global strategies to follow", ie "conclusive and credible measures that do doubts looming over the state." Accelerating deterioration economy, doubts about the financial system, and "not dissipating doubts about the fourth entity, had not presented a credible strategy to calm the alarm on the market" and the proliferation of negative reports, says the minister, "force the government to tighten provisioning rules asset" and this led to a dead end to Rato. Having said that, there might not be new hearings to clarify everything that happened in those murky days of May
