An update from Banco Santander ( (ES:SAN) ) is now available.
Banco Santander has reported the latest tranche of transactions under its ongoing share buyback programme, conducted between 11 and 17 December 2025 across several European trading venues. As of 17 December, the bank has invested €1.624 billion in the programme, representing approximately 95.6% of the authorised maximum amount and resulting in the repurchase of about 15.2% of its outstanding shares compared with 2021 levels. The significant scale of the buyback underscores Santander’s continued focus on capital optimisation and shareholder remuneration, and further consolidates its capital structure by materially reducing the free float of its ordinary shares.
