Margarita Castañeda holds a PhD in Quantitative Economics and is an Expert in Communication and Branding in the Financial Sector. She has worked as Deputy Secretary of Business Development at Coas, Market Risk Analyst at Banco Santander and Credit and Market Risk Analyst at Santander Investment. 

She values working in communication and reputation because they are two levers that allow to create long-term value in companies beyond economic and financial performance, which remains an essential pillar for the performance of companies, but not the only one. 

She works as Head of Communication and Branding for Cecabank, a custodian bank that provides specialized Securities Services, Treasury and Payments services, and for Ceca, an association of savings banks and banks. In addition, her personal challenge is to improve the reputation of the Spanish Financial Sector.
