Unicaja and Unión de Pequeños Agricultores y Ganaderos (UPA) de Málaga have collaborated one more year in the campaign of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), having facilitated these professionals the processing of aid in these months.
The agreement has allowed farmers and livestock breeders to process the subsidy through this professional organization and to benefit from the financial advantages offered by the bank with the direct payment of the aid, including the advance payment of the subsidy. In short, this collaboration with Unicaja is part of the support it offers to the agricultural sector.
The bank works to adapt its resources to the needs of professionals in the sector and seeks alliances with professional organizations that facilitate this work. Thus, with this agreement, which was signed by Unicaja’s regional manager in Malaga, Francisco José Reguera, and the secretary general of UPA Malaga, Francisco Moscoso, the commitment of both entities has been to ensure quality service in the management and advance payment of aid, in addition to meeting the financial requirements of farmers and livestock breeders.
Applicants have been able to process the aid through UPA Malaga, which has the means and technical staff specialized in the advice, management and processing of these files.
As part of this year's CAP campaign, Unicaja has offered its customers the possibility of advancing the amount with loans on favorable terms, as well as advice, management and personalized processing of their application files.
Specifically, the institution set up a line of pre-approved loans of 1,000 million euros. In this way, it improved its pre-approval system, doubling the number of customers who could benefit from this financing to anticipate their aid through an agile concession.
This offer was also extended with pre-approved investment loans for farm modernization and improvement.
UPA Málaga brings together the majority of the agricultural sector in the province: family farms, whose owners are small and medium-sized farmers and ranchers.
Its activity reflects the constant technical work, both in advising farmers and in dialogue with the administrations, providing proposals that seek to solve the problems of these professionals and improve the profitability and day-to-day life of the primary sector and the rural environment.
