International Power 50

11 of 50

11. Ana Patricia Botín

Executive Chairman
Banesto

Country: Spain
2007 rank: 9

Botín, 48, had a good year at Banesto, the retail arm of $90 billion banking giant Santander: Revenues soared 40%, to $6 billion, and net profit grew 26% while the firm largely averted the subprime mortgage mess. Still a question mark: whether she will succeed father Emilio as head of the Santander empire.

NEXT: Maureen Kempston Darkes
