65% Of Spaniards Fear Losing Their Job

T.C. | Almost half of Spaniards (43%) say they are in poor financial health, compared to 31% before Covid-19. Moreover, the number of respondents who assign a failed grade to their fellow citizens’ financial health, rating it below five out of ten, has almost doubled from 49% to 81%. This makes Spain the country with the worst perception amongst the eight that took part in the survey. It comes below Turkey and a long way behind the Netherlands, the country with the best score in this respect. These are some of the main conclusions drawn from the financial health survey conducted by ING’s TFI Consumer Research in eight European countries.
