A complex economic reality
Investments and perspectives in Catalonia
Public investment in Catalonia has been the subject of analysis in relation to budget execution, showing a disparity in the figures.
Pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca, based in Cambridge, has announced a significant investment in Barcelona, ​​which will contribute to the creation of jobs.
Fiscal balances and territorial inequalities
The fiscal balances have revealed marked differences in State investments between Madrid and Catalonia, generating criticism for the lack of transparency.
Budgeted but not executed investments in Catalonia have raised the demand for compensation from the regional government.
Persistent inequalities
Determinants of budget non-execution
Budget non-execution in Catalonia has generated recurring criticism, especially compared to other regions such as Madrid, where greater execution is observed.
The figures reveal a decades-long trend in investment inequality between the autonomous communities, with Madrid standing out above Catalonia.
Centralization of powers and economic consequences
The concentration of State powers in Madrid has generated an imbalance in the distribution of resources and investments, with negative consequences for Catalonia.
The lack of decentralization and the centralization of decisions in Madrid could explain the disparities in investments and budget execution.
