Rajoy Punishes Exporters Sustaining Spain’s Economy: Euro Credit

“The fiscal pressure is intense,” Clemente Gonzalez Soler, chief executive officer and founder of the Madrid-based manufacturer, said in a telephone interview. “The changes mean a loss of competitiveness for Spanish companies just at the moment when we need to export more.”
