Thu 22th Sep 2011

The bank will operate as a subsidiary company, BBVA Compass, and will focus on corporate banking with a number of government agencies and schools as well as clients from the healthcare and real estate sectors.

BBVA has followed Spain's Banco Santander, Banco Popular and Banco Sabadell in forging a presence in Florida.
