Gómez-Acebo & Pombo strengthens its position among the most active project finance firms in Spain
11 of July, 2025
Gómez-Acebo & Pombo consolidates its role as a key firm in the Spanish project finance market, having registered seven relevant transactions in the first half of the year, according to TTR Data’s ranking published by CincoDías.
The firm is ranked seventh in terms of number of transactions and ninth in terms of total cumulative value, with €113 million advised.
Despite the strong competitive pressure exerted by large international and national firms, Gómez-Acebo & Pombo remains among the most active law firms in the country, standing out especially in projects related to renewable energies and sustainability.
This performance consolidates the firm as a strategic benchmark in project finance, especially in greenfield phases, where it provides in-depth legal-financial knowledge and a clear focus on sustainability. Its participation in multiple transactions in the renewable sector, at a key moment for the energy transition in Spain, is evidence of Gómez-Acebo & Pombo’s commitment to innovation, decarbonisation and sustainable economic development.

Payment service providers’ rectification of unauthorised or incorrectly executed payment transactions: user obligations
The Court of Justice of the European Union (Fourth Chamber), in its judgment of 1 August 2025, case C-665/23, IL v. Veracash SAS, concludes that a payer is deprived of the right to reimbursement of the amount of an unauthorised transaction if he or she delayed in notifying his or her payment service provider of the unauthorised payment transaction, even though he or she did so within 13 months from the debit date. This interpretation of the Payment Services Directive is applicable in Spain (Art. 43 RDL 19/2018) and appears to be retained in the future Regulation on payment services.
