The nature and scope of EFE is not always well known. For the purpose of a better understanding of its activity and impact on the news market, the agency has updated all its information for the general public.

We are a state-owned agency that is accountable to the Spanish parliament, the Court of Auditors and the European Commission, and which complies internally with a strict Code of Ethics and a protocol of action in obtaining and editing news, under collegiate decisions.

This internal quality control is also endorsed by the Editorial Board, a body of EFE professionals representing the agency's journalists that regulates the actions of the newsroom through a statute.

This presentation provides background, but also the main figures of recent months.
