Fintonic recruits its new CEO in Santander

Fintonic, a Spanish fintech company, has appointed Eneko Fonseca as its new CEO, replacing Armando Baquero. Fonseca joins from Santander, where he previously worked in the insurance area, and has experience in various leadership roles, including at Autocompara, a Latin American insurance comparison marketplace backed by Santander.

Baquero will remain involved with Fintonic in a strategic position and as representative on the board of Square One Group, the company's main investor. Fonseca's appointment comes as Fintonic launches new products, including Credit Builder, an AI-powered tool that provides users with financial recommendations, and aims to grow its ChatGPT-integrated loan simulation service to 10% of its activity by the end of the year.
