Share this Post: According to a report in local publication hispanidad.com, leading Spanish portal company idealista has refinanced €100m in debt in order to pay its owners a dividend. The portal company refinanced its debt with Spanish banks Santander, CaixaBank, ING and others agreeing to a 2028 maturity date at a higher rate of interest. The operation was reportedly done through parent company Idealista Global which operates 15 companies including portals in its native Spain as well as Portugal and Italy. Prior to 2020, idealista was owned by the private equity fund Apax Partners.
