Francisco Gil, partner of Corporate, discussed in this forum the different investment opportunities offered by the Spanish capital, specifically the advantages offered by holding companies.
Francisco referred to the advantages of creating holding companies in Spain, including investment promotion and protection agreements, with all the European guarantees against political risks. In addition, it is a regime that favours the attraction of management talent.
Personalities such as Isabel Díaz Ayuso, President of the Community of Madrid, among others, took part in this forum.
The aim of this forum is to promote trusting relationships and to strengthen strategic links between Ibero-American businessmen and investors. It also seeks to encourage co-investment between Spain and America, and to promote Ibero-American companies, with Madrid as the best setting for strengthening ties.

CJEU clarifies conditions under which EU law may prohibit national tax exemptions
For the Grand Chamber of the CJEU, a tax exemption based on objective and non-discriminatory criteria and integrated into the logic of the legal system which it accompanies is inherent in the ‘normal’ tax regime and does not, in principle, confer a selective advantage. In such cases, the conditions for granting the exemption are neutral from the point of view of competition, as the fact that some undertakings satisfy those conditions, while others do not, is not relevant in the light of the rules on State aid.

Royal Decree 214/2025: obligation to calculate carbon footprints, draw up emission reduction plans and publicly disclose the same
Royal Decree 214/2025 does not create a new register, as its title suggests, but rather keeps and expands the one in place since 2014. What is truly new is the obligation imposed on specific companies and public bodies to calculate their carbon footprint and to draw up greenhouse gas emission reduction plans, as well as to publish the same. The royal decree’s succinct wording raises some questions of interpretation.

Permanent incapacity, except if employee decides otherwise or if an excessive burden on employer, no longer triggers termination of contract
The obligation to accommodate the workplace for persons with a permanent incapacity has come to the fore with such incapacity no longer constituting an automatic termination-of-employment-contract event. Now, unless the employee intends otherwise, the employer has three months to make necessary adjustments or to offer a suitable vacant post, and a failure to do so that is not justified on the grounds of excessive burden means not only a breach of law with all its consequences, but also the continuation of the employer/employee relationship with all its consequences.
