BANCO SANTANDER, S.A.
BANCO SANTANDER, S.A. is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Spain under A39000013, and its current status with Colegio de Registradores / Registro Mercantil Central is active. The company was incorporated on 1 January 1857 and lists its registered address as Madrid, Spain. 1 shareholder is on record for BANCO SANTANDER, S.A., and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Colegio de Registradores / Registro Mercantil Central and was last updated on 15 September 2026.

Shareholders
1
One shareholder is currently on record for BANCO SANTANDER, S.A., reflecting the Libro Registro de Socios (shareholder registry book) maintained under Article 104 of the Ley de Sociedades de Capital rather than a public filing.
The largest of these is iShares Trust-iShares MSCI Europe Financials ETF, holding 3.2% — the largest recorded stake.
Because the shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

The Senior Evp & Group Chief Accounting Officer of BANCO SANTANDER, S.A. on record is Josu00e9 Francisco Doncel Razu00f3la; 5 officers are shown here, filed with Colegio de Registradores / Registro Mercantil Central.

Management authority at BANCO SANTANDER, S.A. sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.
The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
Group Structure
BANCO SANTANDER, S.A. has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 129 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 23 jurisdictions. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 129 subsidiaries span Spain, United States, United Kingdom, Cayman Islands, Chile, Dominican Republic, and 17 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. 32 of the 129 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
