Abstract
Spanish Abstract: El asesoramiento en operaciones de crédito inmobiliario es una de las actividades comprendidas en la Ley 5/2019, de 15 de marzo, reguladora de los contratos de crédito inmobiliario. La complejidad que puede alcanzar el crédito inmobiliario y la posible existencia de conflictos de intereses aconsejaban regular este tipo de asesoramiento. Se siguen los pasos del sistema MiFID. Desde esta perspectiva, el presente artículo analiza el régimen jurídico del asesoramiento en crédito inmobiliario y su controvertida naturaleza. Asimismo, se describe su iter contractual, desde la perfilación del cliente, pasando por el análisis de productos y la evaluación de su adecuación al perfil del cliente, hasta le emisión de la recomendación, con referencias a la responsabilidad contractual del asesor. Se reivindica la profesión de asesor financiero, descartando que la función del notario sea la de asesorar a los clientes.

From this perspective, this paper analyses the legal regime of advisory services on credit agreements relating to residential immovable property and their controversial legal nature. The contract process is described from the profile of the client, through the analysis of products and the assessment of their suitability according to the client’s profile, to the provision of the personal recommendation, with reference to advisor’s contractual liability. It is claimed the role of financial advisors, discarding that the purpose of the notary is advising clients.
