Unicaja Banco provides assistance to these customers in the submission of the applications to get different aids for the current campaign. For that purpose, farmers and livestock breeders can contact the bank’s branches in Andalusia, Asturias, Cantabria, Castilla y León, Castilla-La Mancha and Extremadura, where they will receive specialized advice and assistance to fill in their applications.
The processing of these subsidies by Unicaja Banco involves some advantages for the beneficiaries, such as personalized advice, processing and management of their dossier and also the possibility to receive the advance payment of the aid granted, with or without interest and with exceptional conditions.
