Pedro Franqueza y Esteve (Igualada, June 29, 1547 - León, November 1614) was a Spanish bureaucrat who, with the favor of the Duke of Lerma, rose in the administration of Philip III until accumulating the secretaryships of the councils of Aragon, Castile, Inquisition, and State, as well as the treasury committees of Spain and Portugal. The way he used his positions for personal enrichment led to his disqualification and condemnation to life imprisonment for fraud, bribery, and forgery.
