The main purpose of this study is to learn how treatment with finerenone affects the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR), a marker of kidney health, over time in adults with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease who are receiving care in primary care clinics as part of their usual medical care. The study will help researchers better understand how finerenone is used and how people respond to treatment in everyday primary care settings. This is an observational study, which means the study does not decide or assign treatment. Participants will receive finerenone only if their primary care doctor has already decided to prescribe it as part of routine medical care. The doctor will determine the starting dose and make any dose changes based on the participant's individual needs. All participants will be enrolled in a single study group and followed for up to 12 months after starting finerenone. Information collected during routine primary care visits may include kidney health measurements, laboratory test results, other medications, healthcare use, and any side effects experienced during treatment. Follow-up assessments are planned around Month 1, Month 3, Month 6, and Month 12. Information about adverse events will be collected until 30 days after the participant's last dose of finerenone. The study will not require additional treatment decisions beyond routine care and aims to understand how finerenone performs in real-world primary care practice.

Evolution of the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR)
Assessed by change from baseline at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after initiation of finerenone treatment.
Time frame: Baseline and at months 1, 3, 6 and 12
Proportion of patients achieving a clinically relevant reduction in uACR
Defined as a relative decrease of at least 30% from baseline.
Time frame: Baseline and at months 1, 3, 6 and 12
Magnitude of the relative change in uACR
Categorization of patients into response ranges \<30%, 30% to \<50%, and \>=50% reduction from baseline.
Time frame: Baseline and at months 1, 3, 6 and 12
Adherence and persistence to finerenone treatment
Adherence and persistence during follow-up under routine clinical practice conditions.
Time frame: 12 months
Safety profile of finerenone
Occurrence of potentially treatment-related adverse events, serum potassium abnormalities, early eGFR changes, and related clinical actions.
Time frame: Up to 12 months
Use of health resources
Consultations and laboratory studies according to information available in medical records.
Time frame: Up to 12 months
