04:16 AM EDT, 05/05/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Banco de Sabadell (SAB.MC) and Bankinter (BKT.MC) plan to join the Qivalis stablecoin initiative led by a dozen European banks, Spanish newspaper Expansion reported Tuesday, citing unnamed sources.

The Spanish banks and several non-listed peers, including Abanca, Kutxabank and Cecabank, are expected to join the consortium in the coming weeks, according to the report.

A group of large European banks unveiled Qivalis in December 2025 to launch a euro-pegged stablecoin in the second ​half of 2026.

Sabadell and Bankinter did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
