APPENDIX 2

 

APPOINTMENT OF EXTERNAL AUDITORS

 

At the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 5, 2020, the shareholders of Credicorp Ltd. approved the appointment of Gaveglio Aparicio y Asociados S.C.R.L., a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers in Peru, to act as external auditors for a period of one (1) year in accordance with the proposal and recommendation of the Audit Committee that was delivered to the Board of Directors, and delegated to the Board of Directors acting by the Audit Committee to approve the auditor’s fees.

 

Hence, considering the satisfactory work performed by the external auditors, and with the prior recommendation and approval of the Audit Committee, the Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting the appointment of Gaveglio Aparicio y Asociados S.C.R.L., representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers in Peru, as external auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

 

The Board also recommends the shareholders to delegate to the Board of Directors acting by the Audit Committee the power to set and approve the auditor’s fees for their audit services.

 

Credicorp’s Policy for Audit and Non-Audit Fees

 

The Audit Committee has determined that, as a general rule, the sum total of tax services and other services provided to Credicorp and its subsidiaries by the external auditor may not exceed 35% of the total of auditing services, services related to auditing, taxes and other services as stipulated in section IV. “Services subject to approval,” contained in the Audit Committee Policy during a fiscal year.

 

When the Committee deems it necessary to approve an exception, it will take into consideration if the service required is aligned with the rules of independence for external auditors as set by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

Please find below preliminary information related to audit and non-audit fees paid to Gaveglio Aparicio y Asociados S.C.R.L. for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020 (preliminary). The information includes fees for independent auditing and for other projects conducted at the Company. The final information for 2020 will be published in Credicorp’s Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020 to be filed with the SEC, but we do not expect that the final amounts, which will be reported in the Form 20-F, will be materially different from the information for 2020 presented below.
