Sparkasse removes airport billboard — was that enough?

Answer

Why did Sparkasse remove its billboard at Palma airport?

Sparkasse said it would remove the controversial billboard after criticism over advertising that referred to mass tourism in Mallorca. The company also said it would change its slogans for the Wero payment platform. The move appears to be a response to local concerns, but it does not by itself resolve the wider debate about tourism pressure on the island.
