Re: | Material Event |
To whom it may concern,
We are writing to inform you that our main subsidiary, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. (Banco Galicia), has been informed that the Argentine Central Bank has publicly approved the transfer of certain assets and liabilities of Banco Finansur S.A. to Banco Galicia.
The transaction has been structured within a framework outlined by article 35, section II of Law 21,526, Chapter IV, entitled, Entity restructuring in defense of credit and bank deposits.
Although the extent of transferred assets and liabilities is still subject to review, we estimate that the transaction will not have a significant impact on Banco Galicia´s shareholders equity.
A due diligence process is underway in accordance with the terms of the offer submitted.
Yours faithfully,
A. Enrique Pedemonte
Attorney in fact
Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A.
