Check it on your side, but IAG is a spanish company, based in Madrid, and it reports in euros and not in sterling.
I think our confusion is in part because the corporate HQ is listed in UK. The Spanish base does make more sense for many reasons.
Interesting!
It seems then Madrid is almost only the legal location.
Thanks for the podcast.
