MAPFRE Economics Joins ECB’s Survey of Monetary Analysts

With innovative expansion and a commitment to providing insightful economic research, MAPFRE Economics, the research arm of Spanish insurance company MAPFRE, has been selected to participate in the European Central Bank’s (ECB) Survey of Monetary Analysts (SMA). This significant inclusion positions MAPFRE among only four European insurance companies participating in the survey and as the sole representative of any Spanish insurance company’s research department. The ECB administers this structured survey to gather in-depth and systematic viewpoints from over 70 financial sector companies concerning critical matters such as monetary policy, economic activity, market conditions, interest rates, and inflation trends. Under the guidance of General Manager Manuel Aguilera Verduzco, MAPFRE Economics will soon commemorate a decade of profound research contributions to the economic and insurance sectors by 2025.

A Decade of Research and Future Contributions

MAPFRE Economics has continuously strived to provide comprehensive insights into various facets of the economy and insurance domain, and their inclusion in the ECB’s SMA illustrates the quality and reliability of their work. The MAPFRE Economics Observatory, another crucial initiative, was launched in partnership with El Confidencial in 2024 and aims to contribute expert analyses and findings until 2025. The purpose of the ECB’s SMA, regularly updated since its inception as a pilot project in 2019, is to better comprehend the expectations and projections held by market participants. The collaboration with top experts through the Observatory ensures that MAPFRE Economics stays at the forefront of delivering actionable and insightful economic research. This latest involvement with the ECB SMA represents a significant milestone for MAPFRE, underlining the institution’s influence and expertise within the broader financial landscape.
