CatalunyaCaixa (Catalan pronunciation: [kətəˌɫuɲəˈkaʃə]) is the trading name of Caixa d'Estalvis de Catalunya, Tarragona i Manresa,[2] a Catalan savings bank with headquarters in Barcelona. It is the fourth largest savings bank in Spain in terms of consolidated assets, with €81.020 billions.[1]

It was founded on 1 July 2010 by the fusion of Caixa Catalunya, Caixa Tarragona and Caixa Manresa. The new savings bank has 1212 branches and over 4 million customers.[1] In 2013 Catalunya Caixa had to be rescued by the spanish government with 14.000.000.000 euros. Then it became a bank and in 2015 was bought by BBVA, another spanish bank, by 1000.000.000 euros.

Catalunya Caixa and BBVA both collaborate with 17 arms manufacturers as WASS, Thyssenkrupp or AECOM. BBVA is the spanish bank who inverts more in this issue including nuclear weapons. http://www.bbvasinarmas.org/ http://www.setem.org/blog/es/catalunya/la-campana-banca-armada-participa-en-la-junta-de-accionistas-de-caixabank-para-denunciar-la-implicacion-de-la-entidad-en-17-empresas-armamentisticas
