José Sevilla resigns as president of Unicaja after more than two years in office

José Sevilla, non-executive president of Unicaja, has decided not to seek re-election for his position in April 2027 and will remain in the role until then. Sevilla took over as president of Unicaja in February 2024, ending a governance crisis that arose after the bank's merger with Liberbank. The bank has activated its succession plan to select a new president and has informed the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV).

Sevilla's decision comes as Unicaja reports a profit of 361 million euros for the first half of the year, with a double-digit return and solvency of around 16%.
