Spain’s digital layer is mostly bank-owned (Abanca, B100, Openbank, imagin) plus Catalan community fintechs. B100 is a commercial brand of Abanca — same IBAN, same FGD, do not double-count the cap. A Banco de España credit institution is FGD-protected. A PSD2 wallet that shows a European IBAN is not. This desk names the entity, not the app icon.
