Resumen de Toward an Intelligence Economic System in Spain?
Eugenia Hernández, Ana Isabel Páramo Carretero
Spain lacks an SIE (Economic Intelligence System). An integrated and operational system that unifies the efforts of public agencies and companies with national interests. But there are the bases to generate a functional SIE. Although it is true that the CNI is the body responsible for producing the intelligence needed for the Government of the nation, specifically in Article n. 4 of the LCNI establishes the functions of the National Intelligence Center, regarding Economic Intelligence, which is to “obtain, evaluate and interpret information and disseminate the intelligence necessary to protect and promote the political, economic, industrial, commercial and strategic interests of Spain, being able to act inside or outside the national territory”. This is so, without less end of not being the only producer of Economic Intelligence; besides not being constituted, as organizer or dynamizer of the Spanish economic intelligence system.
