Frequently asked questions

AIAF is Spain's leading regulated market for corporate and public fixed income securities, focused on retail investors, although not exclusively. Prices are set through electronic trading systems or through direct agreements between entities that report to the market (RFQ). 

Prices depend on decisions made by the European Central Bank, changes in the credit rating of issuing companies, and the liquidity available for each specific security.

As an officially regulated market, AIAF has greater transparency and supervision requirements. This is in contrast to purely bilateral or OTC (Over-the-Counter) markets, where prices are agreed privately and are not always visible to others. This means that both pre-trade bid and ask prices and post-trade prices of executed trades are communicated to the market in near real time.
