Takeaways •In the last 12 months the share of non-marketable assets in the collateral pledged by Spanish counterparties in Eurosystem financing operations has held steady, after growing for several years in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis. The proportion of non-marketable assets accounted for by loans to firms assessed using the ICAS BE has continued to grow for the third consecutive year, albeit more moderately. •Counterparties continue to have ample scope to increase the volume of ICAS BE-rated loans pledged, especially in the case of loans to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). •Credit ratings assigned by the ICAS BE to Spanish firms have remained largely unchanged from last year, as higher financing costs have been offset by a slight improvement in the other areas assessed, particularly liquidity.Banco de EspañaMadrid : Banco de España, 20252025info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://repositorio.bde.es/handle/123456789/40286reponame:Repositorio Institucional del Banco de Españainstname:Banco de EspañaInglésEconomic Bulletin / Banco de España, 2025/Q3, 02Versión en español 123456789/40285info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:repositorio.bde.es:123456789/402862026-06-20T12:44:27Z
