BBVA ranks second in the KWD Webranking list of Spanish companies, which measures how they communicate on the Internet and social networks. The survey, which in Spain has analyzed the on-line portals of 25 companies, has judged very positively the communication of BBVA's sustainability strategy on its various websites.

This ranking has been prepared by KW Digital, a global agency specializing in on-line corporate communication. In this study, the agency surveyed the main stakeholders of these companies: analysts, investors, journalists and young professionals looking for a job. The questionnaire refers to the usage of the corporate websites of the companies and the answers obtained have highlighted the on-line information that BBVA offers on corporate, environmental and social governance.

This is not the first time that BBVA's Corporate Responsibility communication has been recognized; in late 2012, the bank received the Stevie award for its website for shareholders and investors, which includes a specific section on sustainability, and it was the first Spanish company in the ranking prepared by the communication consultancy firm Lundquist, which measures on-line communication on CSR offered by 100 European companies. bancaparatodos, BBVA's CR portal, was also recognized in the Corporate Responsibility Communication category of the Digital Communication Awards.
