2.Summary of Significant Accounting Principles:

 

(a)Legal Dispositions:

 

Decree Law No. 3,538 of 1980, according to the text replaced by the first article of Law No. 21,000 that “Creates the Commission for the Financial Market”, provides in numeral 6 of its article 5 that the Commission for the Market Financial (CMF) may “set the standards for the preparation and presentation of reports, balance sheets, statements of situation and other financial statements of the audited entities and determine the principles under which they must keep their accounting”.

 

According to the current legal framework, banks must use the accounting principles provided by the CMF and in everything that is not dealt with by it or in contravention of its instructions, they must adhere to the generally accepted accounting principles, which correspond to the technical standards issued by the College of Accountants of Chile AG, coinciding with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) agreed by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). If there are discrepancies between these accounting principles of general acceptance and the accounting criteria issued by the CMF, the latter shall prevail.

 

The notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements contain additional information to that presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, in the Interim Consolidated Statement of Income, Interim Consolidated Statement of Other Comprehensive Income, Interim Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Interim Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. They provide narrative descriptions or disaggregation of such statements in a clear, relevant, reliable and comparable way.

 

(b)Basis of Consolidation:

 

The Interim Financial Statements of Banco de Chile as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 have been consolidated with its Chilean subsidiaries and foreign subsidiary, using the global integration method (line-by-line).

Specifically the Bank have power over the investee when has existing rights that give it the ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee.

 

When the Bank has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, but these voting rights are enough to have the ability to direct the relevant activities unilaterally, then conclude the Bank has control. The Bank considers all factors and relevant circumstances to evaluate if their voting rights are enough to obtain the control, which it includes:

 

The amount of voting rights that the Bank has, related to the amount of voting rights of the others stakeholders;

 

Potential voting rights maintained by the Bank, other holders of voting rights or other parties;

 

Rights emanated from other contractual arrangements;

 

Any additional circumstance that indicate that the Bank have or have not the ability to manage the relevant activities when that decisions need to be taken, including behavior patterns of vote in previous shareholders meetings.

 

The Bank reevaluates if it has or has not the control over an investee when the circumstances indicates that exists changes in one or more elements of control listed above.

(ii)Investments in companies as a joint venture

 

Associates

 

An associate is an entity over which the Bank has significant influence on its operating and financial management policy decisions, without having control over the associate. Significant influence is generally presumed when the Bank holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Other factors considered when determining whether the Bank has significant influence over another entity are the representation on the Board of Directors and the existence of material intercompany transactions. The existence of these factors could determine the existence of significant influence over an entity despite the Bank holding a participation of less than 20% of the entity’s voting rights.

 

Investments in associates where exists significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method. In accordance with the equity method, the Bank’s investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently increased or decreased to reflect the proportional participation of the Bank in the net income or loss of the associate and other movements recognized in its shareholders’ equity. Goodwill arising from the acquisition of an associate is included in the net book value, net of any accumulated impairment loss.

 

Joint Ventures

 

Joint Ventures are joint arrangements whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint control exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

 

According to IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements”, an entity will determine the type of joint arrangement in which it is involved, and may classify the agreement as a “Joint operation” or a “Joint venture”.

 

For investments defined as a “Joint Operation”, the assets, liabilities, income and expenses are recognized by the participation in the joint operation.

 

Investments defined as a “Joint Venture” will be registered according to the equity method.

 

Investments in other companies that, for their characteristics, are defined as “Joint Ventures” are as follows:

 

Artikos Chile S.A.
   
Servipag Ltda.

(iii)Minority investments in other companies

 

On initial recognition, the Bank may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading and is not contingent consideration recognized by an acquirer in a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies.

 

(iv)Special purpose entities

 

According to current regulation, the Bank must be analyzing periodically its consolidation area, considering that the principal criteria are the control that the Bank has in an entity and not its percentage of equity participation.

 

As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Bank does not control and has not created any SPEs.

 

(v)Fund administration

 

The Bank and its subsidiaries manage and administer assets held in mutual funds and other investment products on behalf of investors, perceiving a paid according to the service provided and according to market conditions. Managed resources are owned by third parties and, therefore, not included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

 

According to established in IFRS 10, for consolidation purposes is necessary to assess the role of the Bank and its subsidiaries with respect to the funds they manage, must determine whether that role is Agent or Principal. This assessment should consider the following:

 

-The scope of their authority to make decisions about the investee.
   
-The rights held by third parties.
   
-The remuneration to which it is entitled in accordance with the remuneration arrangements.
   
-Exposure, decision maker, the variability of returns from other interests that keeps the investee.

 

The Bank and its subsidiaries manage on behalf and for the benefit of investors, acting in that relationship only as Agent. Under this category, and as provided in the aforementioned regulation, it does not control such funds when exercise its authority to make decisions. Therefore, as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 act as agent, and therefore do not consolidate any fund, no funds are part of the consolidation.

(c)Non-controlling interest:

 

Non-controlling interest represents the share of losses, income and net assets of which, directly or indirectly, the Bank does not own. It is presented separately from the equity of the owners of the Bank in the Interim Consolidated Statements of Income and the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

 

(d)Use of Estimates and Judgment:

 

Preparing Interim Consolidated Financial Statements requires Management to make judgments, estimations and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the valuation of assets, liabilities, income and expenses presented. Real results could differ from these estimated amounts. The estimates made refer to:

 

1.Impairment of debt instruments (Note No. 10 and No. 41)
   
2.Provision for credit risk (Notes No 13, No. 16 and No. 41);
   
3.Useful life of intangible assets, property and equipment and leased assets and lease liabilities (Notes No. 15, No. 16 and No. 17);
   
4.Income taxes and deferred taxes (Note No. 18);
   
5.Provisions (Note No. 24);
   
6.Contingencies and Commitments (Note No. 29);
   
7.Fair value of financial assets and liabilities (Note No. 44).

 

Estimates and relevant assumptions are regularly reviewed by the management according to quantify certain assets, liabilities, gains, loss and commitments. Estimates reviewed are registered in income in the year that the estimate is reviewed.

 

During the period ended March 31, 2022 there have been no significant changes in the estimates made.

 

(e)Financial Assets and Liabilities:

 

The classification, measurement and presentation of financial assets and liabilities has been carried out based on the standards issued by the CMF in the Compendium of Accounting Standards, considering the criteria described below.

 

Financial Assets:

 

Classification of financial assets:

 

On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified within the following categories: Financial assets held for trading at fair value through profit or loss; Financial assets not held for trading mandatorily valued at fair value through profit or loss; Financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss; Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and Financial assets at amortized cost.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Principles, continued:

 

(e)Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

 

Classification of financial assets, continued:

 

The criteria for classifying financial assets, which incorporates the standards defined in IFRS 9, depends on the business model with which the entity manages the assets and the contractual characteristics of the cash flows, commonly known as “solely payments of principal and interest” (SPPI) criterion.

 

The valuation of these assets should reflect how the Bank manages groups of financial assets and does not depend on the intent for an individual instrument.

 

A financial assets should be valued at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

 

-The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and
   
-The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

 

A debt financial instrument must be valued at fair value with changes in “Other comprehensive income” if the following two conditions are met:

 

-The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and
   
-The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

 

A debt financial instrument will be classified at fair value through profit or loss whenever, due to the business model or the characteristics of its contractual cash flows, it is not appropriate to classify it in any of the other categories described.

 

In general, equity financial instruments are valued at fair value through profit or loss.

 

However, the Bank may make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in “Other Comprehensive Income”.

 

Financial assets will only be reclassified when the Bank decides to change the business model. In this case, all the financial assets of said business model will be reclassified. The change in the objective of the business model must be prior to the date of reclassification.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Principles, continued:

 

(e)Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

 

Valuation of financial assets:

 

Initial recognition:

 

Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset that is not carried at fair value through profit or loss, the transaction costs that are directly attributable to its purchase or issuance, using the Effective Interest Rate method (EIT). The calculation of the EIT includes all fees and other items paid or received that are part of the EIT. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of a financial asset.

 

Post measurement:

 

All variations in the value of financial assets due to the accrual of interest and items assimilated to interest are recorded in “Interest income” or “Interest expense” of the Consolidated Income Statement for the year in which the accrual occurred, except for trading derivatives that are not part of accounting hedges.

 

The changes in the valuations that occur after the initial registration for reasons other than those mentioned in the previous paragraph, are treated as described below, based on the categories in which the financial assets are classified.

 

Financial assets held for trading at fair value through profit or loss, Financial assets not held for trading mandatorily valued at fair value through profit or loss and Financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss:

 

In “Financial assets held for trading at fair value through profit or loss” will record financial assets whose business model aims to generate profits through purchases and sales or to generate results in the short term.

 

The financial assets recorded under “Financial assets not held for trading mandatorily valued at fair value through profit or loss” are assigned to a business model whose objective is achieved by obtaining contractual cash flows and/or selling financial assets but where the cash flows contracts have not met the conditions of the SPPI test.

 

In “Financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss” financial assets will be classified only when such designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistency in the valuation or in the recognition that would arise from valuing or recognizing the assets on a different basis.

The assets recorded in these items of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are valued after their acquisition at their fair value and changes in their value are recorded, at their net amount, under “Financial assets and liabilities held for trading”, “Financial assets and liabilities financial assets not held for trading mandatorily valued at fair value through profit or loss” and “Financial assets and liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss” of the Consolidated Income Statement. Variations originated from exchange differences are recorded under “Foreign currency changes, UF indexation and accounting hedge” in the Consolidated Income Statement.

 

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

 

Debt financial instruments:

 

The assets recorded in this item of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are valued at their fair value, interest income and UF indexation of these instruments, as well as exchange differences and impairment arising, are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income, while subsequent variations in their valuation are temporarily recorded (for its amount net of taxes) in “Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” of the Consolidated Statements of Other Comprehensive Income.

 

The amounts recorded in “Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” continue to form part of the Bank’s consolidated equity until the asset is derecognized in the consolidated balance. In the case of selling these assets, the result is recognized in “Financial result for derecognizing financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost and financial assets at fair value with changes in others comprehensive income” of the Consolidated Income Statement.

 

Net losses due to impairment of financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income produced in the year are recorded in “Impairment due to credit risk of other financial assets at amortized cost and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” of the Consolidated Income Statement of the period.

Equity financial instruments:

 

At the time of initial recognition of investments in equity instruments, the Bank may make the irrevocable decision to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income. Subsequent variations in this valuation will be recognized in “Changes in the fair value of equity instruments designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income”. The dividends received from these investments are recorded in “Income from investments in companies” of the Consolidated Income Statement. These instruments are not subject to the impairment model of IFRS 9.

 

Financial assets at amortized cost:

 

The assets recorded in this item of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are valued after their acquisition at their “amortized cost”, in accordance with the “effective interest rate” method.

 

The financial assets that are included in this item, for presentation purposes, in the Statement of Financial Position are subdivided according to the following:

 

-Investment under resale agreements and securities loans
   
-Debt financial instruments
   
-Due from banks
   
-Loans and accounts receivable from customers (Commercial, Mortgage and Consumer)

 

Losses due to impairment of assets at amortized cost generated in each year are recorded in “Provisions for credit risk and loans and accounts receivable from customers” and “Impairment due to credit risk of other financial assets at amortized cost and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” of the Consolidated Income Statement.

Investment under resale agreements, obligations under repurchase agreements and securities loans:

 

Resale agreement operations are carried out as a form of investment. Under these agreements, financial instruments are purchased, which are included as assets in “Investment under resale agreements and securities loans”, which are valued according to the interest rate of the agreement through the amortized cost method. In accordance with current regulations, the Bank does not record as its own portfolio those papers purchased under resale agreements.

 

Repurchase agreement operations are also carried out as a form of financing, which are included as liabilities in “Obligations for repurchase agreements and securities loans”. In this regard, the investments that are sold subject to a repurchase obligation and that serve as collateral for the loan correspond to debt financial instruments. The obligation to repurchase the investment is classified in liabilities as “Obligations under repurchase agreements and securities loans” and is valued according to the interest rate of the agreement.

 

Debt financial instruments

 

Debt financial instruments at amortized cost are recorded at their cost value plus interest and accrued UF indexation, less provisions for impairment constituted when their recorded amount is greater than the estimated amount of recovery.

 

Interest and UF indexation of debt financial instrument at amortized cost are included in “Interest income and UF indexation”.

 

The investment instruments that are subject to accounting hedges are adjusted according to the accounting hedge rules as described in Note No. 2 letter (k).

Loans and Advances to Banks:

 

This item shows the balances of operations with local and abroad banks, including the Central Bank of Chile and foreign Central Banks. See detail in Note No. 13 (c) Financial Assets at Amortized Cost.

 

Loans and accounts receivable from customers:

 

Loans to customers include originated and purchased non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and which the Bank does not intend to sell immediately or in the short term.

 

(i) Valuation method

 

Loans and accounts receivable from customers are initially measured at cost plus incremental transaction costs and income, and subsequently measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method minus, less any impairment loss, except when the Bank defined some loans as hedged items, measured at fair value through profit or loss as described in letter (k) of this note.

 

(ii) Lease contracts

 

Accounts receivable for leasing contracts, included under the caption “Loans to customers” correspond to periodic rent installments of contracts which meet the definition to be classified as financial leases and are presented at their nominal value net of unearned interest as of each year-end.

 

(iii) Factoring transactions

 

They are valued for the amounts disbursed by the Bank in exchange for invoices or other commercial instruments representative of credit, with or without responsibility of the grantor, received in discount. Price differences between the amounts disbursed and the nominal value of the credits are recorded in the result as interest income, through the effective interest method, during the financing period.

 

In those cases where the transfer of these instruments it was made without responsibility of the grantor, it is the Bank who assumes the insolvency risks of those required to pay.

The impaired loans include the following assets, according to Chapter B-1 of Accounting Standards Compendium of the CMF:

 

a)In case of debtors subject to individual assessment, includes credits from “Non-complying loans” those that must be classified in categories B3 and B4 of “Substandar loans”.

 

b)Debtors subject to assessment group evaluation, the impaired portfolio includes all credits of the “Non-complying loans”.

 

(v) Credit risk allowance

 

The Bank permanently evaluates the entire portfolio of loans and contingent loans, with the aim of establishing the necessary and sufficient provisions in a timely manner to cover the expected losses associated with the characteristics of the debtors and their credits, based on the payment and subsequent recovery.

 

Allowances are required to cover the risk of loan losses have been established in accordance with the instructions issued by the CMF. The loans are presented net of those allowances and, in the case of contingent loans are shown in liabilities under the item “Special provisions for credit risk”.

 

In accordance with what is stipulated by the CMF, models or methods are used based on an individual and group analysis of debtors, to establish allowance for loan losses. Said models, as well as modifications to their design and application, are approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors.

 

(v.i) Allowance for individual evaluations:

 

An individual analysis of debtors is applied to companies that are of such significance with respect to size, complexity or level of exposure to the bank, that they must be analyzed in detail.

 

Likewise, the analysis of borrowers focuses on its credit quality related to the capacity and willingness to meet their credit obligations, through sufficient and reliable information, and should also be analyzed in terms of guarantees, terms, interest rates, currency and revaluation, etc.

 

For purposes of establish the allowances, the banks must assess the credit quality, then classify to one of three categories of loans portfolio: Normal, Substandard and Non-complying Loans, it must classify the debtors and their operations related to loans and contingent loans in the categories that apply.

v.i.1 Normal Loans and Substandard Loans:

 

Normal loans: includes those debtors whose payment capacity allows them to meet their obligations and commitments, and according to the evaluation of their economic-financial situation no change in this condition are displayed. Loans classified in categories A1 through A6.

 

Substandard loans: includes all borrowers with insufficient payment capacity or significant deterioration of payment capacity that may be reasonably expected not to comply with all principal and interest payments obligations set forth in the credit agreement, showing a low flexibility to meet its financial obligations in the short term.

 

This category also includes all loans that have been non-performing for more than 30 days. Loans classified in this category are B1 through B4.

 

As a result of individual analysis of the debtors, the Bank must classify them in the following categories, assigning, subsequently, the percentage of probability of default and loss given default resulting in the following percentage of expected loss:

 

Classification  Category of
the debtors
  Probability of
default (%)

Allowances for Normal and Substandard Loans:

 

To determine the amount of allowances to be constitute for normal and substandard portfolio, previously should be estimated the exposure to subject to the allowances, which will be applied to respective expected loss (expressed in decimals), which consist of probability of default (PD) and loss given default (LGD) established for the category in which the debtor and/or guarantor belong, as appropriate.

v.i.1 Normal Loans and Substandard Loans, continued:

 

The exposure affects to allowances applicable to loans plus contingent loans minus the amounts to be recovered by way of the foreclosure of financial or real guarantees of the operations. Loans mean the book value of credit of the respective debtor, while for contingent loans, the value resulting from to apply the indicated in No. 3 of Chapter B-3 of Banking Accounting Standards Compendium.

 

In the case of real guarantees, the Bank must demonstrate that the value assigned to this deduction reasonably reflects the value that it would obtain in the sale of the assets or capital instruments. Also, in qualified cases, the direct debtor’s credit risk may be substituted for the credit quality of the guarantor. In no case may the guaranteed securities be discounted from the amount of the exposure, since this procedure is only applicable when it comes to financial or real guarantees.

 

For calculation purposes, the following must be considered:

 

Provision debtor = (ESA-GE) x (PDdebtor /100)x(LGDdebtor /100)+GE x(PDguarantor/100)x(LGDguarantor/100)

 

Where:

 

ESA =Exposure subject to allowances, (Loans + Contingent Loans) – Financial Guarantees
GE =Guaranteed exposure

 

However, the Bank must maintain a minimum provision level of 0.50% over normal portfolio and contingents loans.

v.i.2 Non-complying Loans:

 

The non-complying portfolio includes the debtors and their credits for which their recovery is considered remote, as they show an impaired or no payment capacity. This category comprises all debtors who have stopped paying their creditors or with visible evidence that they will stop doing so, as well as those for which a forced restructuring of their debts is necessary, reducing the obligation or postponing the payment of the principal or interest and, in addition, any debtor that has 90 days overdue or more in the payment of interest or principal of any credit. This portfolio is composed of the debtors belonging to categories C1 to C6 of the rating scale and all credits, including 100% of the amount of contingent loans, held by those same debtors.

 

For purposes to establish the allowances on the non-complying loans, the Bank disposes the use of percentage of allowances to be applied on the amount of exposure, which corresponds to the amount of loans and contingent loans that maintain the same debtor. To apply that percentage, must be estimated a expected loss rate, less the amount of the exposure the recoveries by way of foreclosure of financial or real guarantees that to support the operation and, if there are available specific background, also must be deducting present value of recoveries obtainable exerting collection actions, net of expenses associated with them. This loss percentage must be categorized in one of the six levels defined by the range of expected actual losses by the Bank for all transactions of the same debtor.

 

These categories, their range of loss as estimated by the Bank and the percentages of allowance that must be applied on the amount of exposures, are listed in the following table:

 

Type of Loan  Classification  Expected loss  Allowance (%) 
Non-complying loans  C1  Up to 3 %   2 
   C2  More than 3% up to 20%   10 
   C3  More than 20% up to 30%   25 
   C4  More than 30 % up to 50%   40 
   C5  More than 50% up to 80%   65 
   C6  More than 80%   90 

 

For calculation purposes, the following must be considered:

 

  Expected loss = (TE – R) / TE
  Allowance = TE x (AP/100)

 

Where:

 

TE= Total Exposure
R= Recoverable amount
AP= Allowance Percentage (based on the category in which the expected credit loss should be classified).

To remove a debtor from the Default Portfolio, once the circumstances that lead to classification in this portfolio according to these regulations have been overcome, at least the following copulative conditions must be met:

 

-No obligation of the debtor with the bank with more than 30 calendar days overdue.

     

-No new refinances granted to pay its obligations.

     

-At least one of the payments includes amortization of capital.

     

-If the debtor has a credit with partial payment periods less than six months, has already made two payments.

     

-If the debtor must pay monthly fees for one or more credits, has paid four consecutive dues.

      

-The debtor does not have direct debts unpaid in the CMF recast information, except in the case of insignificant amounts.

 

(v.ii) Allowances for group evaluations

 

Group evaluations are relevant for residential mortgage and consumer loan exposures, in addition to commercial exposures related to student loans and exposures with debtors that simultaneously meet the following conditions:

 

i)The Bank has an aggregate exposure to the same counterparty of less than 20,000 UF. The aggregate exposure should require gross provisions or other mitigators. In addition, for its computation, mortgage loans must be excluded. In the case of off-balance sheet items, the gross amount is calculated by applying the credit conversion factors, defined in chapter B-3 of the CNC.

 

ii)Each aggregate exposure to the same counterparty does not exceed 0.2% of the total commercial group portfolio. To avoid circular computation, the criterion will be checked only once.

 

For the remaining commercial credit exposures, the individual analysis model of the debtors must be applied.

The determination of the type of analysis (group or individual) must be carried out at the global consolidated level, once a year, or after significant adjustments in the Bank’s portfolio, such as mergers, acquisitions, purchases or significant portfolio sales.

 

To determine the allowances, the group evaluations require the formation of groups of loans with similar characteristics in terms of type of debtors and conditions agreed, to establish technically based estimates by prudential criteria and following both the payment behavior of the group that concerned as recoveries of defaulted loans and consequently provide the necessary provisions to cover the risk of the portfolio.

 

Banks may use two alternative methods for determining provisions for retail loans that are evaluated as a group.

 

Under first method, it will be used the experience to explain the payment behavior of each homogeneous group of debtors and recoveries through collateral and of collection process, when it correspond, with objective of to estimate directly a percentage of expected losses that will be apply to the amount of the loans of respective group.

 

Under second method, the banks will segment to debtors in homogeneous groups, according described above, associating to each group a determined probability of default and a percentage of recovery based in a historic analysis. The amount of provisions to register it will be obtained multiplied the total loans of respective group by the percentages of estimated default and of loss given the default.

 

In both methods, estimated loss must be related with type of portfolio and terms of operations.

 

The Bank to determine its provisions has opted for using second method.

 

In the case of consumer loans, collateral are not considered for the purpose of estimating the expected loss.

The standard methodologies presented below establish the variables and parameters that determine the provision factor for each type of portfolio that the CMF has defined as representative, according to the common characteristics shared by the operations that comprise them.

 

-Residential mortgage portfolio

 

The provision factor applicable, represented by expected loss over the mortgage loans, it will depend to the past due of each credit and the relation, at the end of month, between outstanding capital and the value of the mortgage guarantees (CMG), according the following table:

-Commercial portfolio

 

To determine the allowances of the commercial portfolio, the Bank must consider the standard methods presented below, as applicable to commercial leasing operations or other types of commercial loans. Then, the applicable provision factor will be assigned considering the parameters defined for each method.

 

a)Commercial Leasing Operations

 

The provision factor must be applied to the current value of commercial leasing operations (including the purchase option) and will depend on the default of each operation, the type of leased asset and the relationship between the current value of each operation and the leased asset value (PVB) at each month-end, as indicated in the following tables:

 

Probability of default (PD) applicable according to default and type of asset (%)
  Type of asset 
Days of default of the operation at the month-end  Real estate   Non-real estate 
0   0.79    1.61 
1-29   7.94    12.02 
30-59   28.76    40.88 
60-89   58.76    69.38 
Portfolio in default   100.00    100.00 

 

Loss given the default (LGD) applicable according to PVB section and type of asset (%)
PVB = Current value of the operation / Value of the leased asset
PVB section  Real estate   Non-real estate 
PVB ≤ 40%   0.05    18.2 
40% < PVB ≤ 50%   0.05    57.00 
50% < PVB ≤ 80%   5.10    68.40 
80% < PVB ≤ 90%   23.20    75.10 
PVB > 90%   36.20    78.90 

 

The determination of the PVB relationship will be made considering the appraisal value expressed in UF for real estate and in Chilean pesos for non-real estate, recorded at the time of the respective loan granting, taking into account possible situations that may be causing temporary increases in the assets prices at that time.

b)Generic commercial placements and factoring

 

In the case of factoring operations and other commercial placements, other than those indicated above, the provision factor, applicable to the amount of the placement and the exposure of the contingent loan risk (as indicated in paragraph 3 of Chapter B-3 of the CNC), will depend on the default of each operation and the relationship that exists at the end of each month, between the obligations that the debtor has with the bank and the value of the collateral that protect them (PTVG), as indicated in the following tables:

 

Probability of default (PD) applicable according to default and PTVG section (%)
   With collateral   Without 
Days of default at the month-end  PTVG≤100%   PTVG>100%   collateral 
0   1.86    2.68    4.91 
1-29   11.60    13.45    22.93 
30-59   25.33    26.92    45.30 
60-89   41.31    41.31    61.63 
Portfolio in default   100.00    100.00    100.00 

 

Loss given the default (LGD) applicable according to PTVG section (%)
Collateral (with / without)  PTVG section  Generic commercial operations or factoring without the responsibility of the transferor   Factoring with the responsibility of the transferor 
With collateral  PTVG ≤ 60%   5.0    3,2 
   60% < PTVG≤ 75%   20.3    12,8 
   75% < PTVG ≤ 90%   32.2    20,3 
   90% < PTVG   43.0    27,1 
Without collateral   56.9    35.9 

 

The collaterals used for the purposes of calculating the PTVG relationship of this method may be specific or general, including those that are simultaneously specific and general. Collateral can only be considered if, according to the respective coverage clauses, it was constituted in the first degree of preference in favor of the Bank and only guarantees the debtor’s credits with respect to which it is imputed (not shared with other debtors).

The invoices assigned in the factoring operations will not be considered for purposes of calculating the PTVG. The excess of collateral associated with mortgage loans referred to in numeral 3.1.1 Residential mortgage portfolio in Chapter B-1 of CNC may be considered, computed as the difference between 80% of the property’ commercial value, according to with the conditions set out in that framework, and the mortgage loan that guarantees.

 

For the calculation of the PTVG ratio, the following considerations must be taken:

 

i.Transactions with specific collaterals: when the debtor granted specific collateral for generic commercial loans and factoring, the PTVG ratio is calculated independently for each covered transaction, such as the division between the amount of the loans and the contingent loans exposure and the collateral’s value of the covered product.

 

ii.Transactions with general collaterals: when the debtor granted general or general and specific collaterals, the Bank calculates the respective PTVG, jointly for all generic commercial loans and factoring and not contemplated in the preceding paragraph i), as the quotient between the sum of the amounts of the loans and exposures of contingent loans and the general, or general and specific collateral that, according to the scope of the remaining coverage clauses, safeguard the loans considered in the numerator aforementioned coverage ratio.

 

The amounts of the guarantees used in the PTVG ratio of numerals i) and ii), different from those associated with excess guarantees from mortgage loans to which the residential mortgage portfolio refers, must be determined according to:

 

-The last valuation of the collateral, be it appraisal or fair value, according to the type of real guarantee in question. For the determination of fair value, the criteria indicated in Chapter 7-12 (Fair Value of Financial Instruments) of the Actualized Standards Compilation should be considered.

     

-Possible situations that could be causing temporary increases in the values of the collaterals.
   
-Limitations on the amount of coverage established in their respective clauses.

(v.ii.2) Portfolio in default.

 

The portfolio in default includes all placements and 100% of the amount of the contingent loans, of the debtors that the closing of a month presents a delay equal to or greater than 90 days in the payment of the interest of the capital of any credit. It will also include debtors who are granted a credit to leave an operation that has more than 60 days of delay in their payment, as well as those debtors who were subject to forced restructuring or partial forgiveness of a debt.

 

They may exclude from the portfolio in default: a) mortgage loans for housing, which delinquent less than 90 days, unless the debtor has another loan of the same type with greater delinquency; and, b) credits for financing higher studies of Law No. 20,027, which do not yet present the non-compliance conditions indicated in Circular No. 3,454 of December 10, 2008.

 

All credits of the debtor must be kept in the Default Portfolio until there is a normalization of their ability or payment behavior, without prejudice to punishment of each particular credit that meets the condition indicated in Title II of Chapter B-2 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards. To remove a debtor from the Default Portfolio, once the circumstances that lead to classification in this portfolio according to the present rules have been overcome, at least the following copulative conditions must be met:

 

-No obligation of the debtor with the bank with more than 30 calendar days overdue.
   
-No new refinances granted to pay its obligations.
   
-At least one of the payments includes amortization of capital. This condition does not apply in the case of debtors who only have credits for financing higher education in accordance with Law No. 20,027.
   
-If the debtor has a credit with partial payment periods less than six months, has already made two payments.
   
-If the debtor must pay monthly fees for one or more credits, has paid four consecutive dues.
   
-The debtor does not appear with unpaid debts direct according to the information recast by CMF, except for insignificant amounts.

(v.iii) Provisions related to financing with FOGAPE COVID-19 guarantee.

 

On July 17, 2020, the CMF requested to determine specific provisions of the credits guaranteed by the FOGAPE COVID-19 guarantee, for which the expected losses were determined estimating the risk of each operation, without considering the substitution of credit quality of the guarantee, according to the corresponding individual or group analysis method, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter B-1 of the CNC. This procedure must be carried out in an aggregate manner, grouping all those operations to which the same deductible percentage is applicable.

 

The deductible is applied by the Fund Administrator, which must be borne by each financial institution and does not depend on each particular operation, but is determined based on the total of the balances guaranteed by the Fund, for each group of companies that have the same coverage, according to their net sales size.

 

(v.iv) Provisions related to financing with FOGAPE Reactivation guarantee.

 

To determine the provisions of the amounts guaranteed by the FOGAPE Reactivation, the Bank considers the substitution of the credit quality of the debtors for that of the FOGAPE, for all the types of financing indicated, up to the amount covered by the aforementioned guarantee. Naturally, the option to consider the risk attributable to FOGAPE may be made while said guarantee remains in force, without considering the capitalized interest, in accordance with the provisions of article 17 of the Fund Regulations.

 

Likewise, for the computation of the provisions of the amount not covered by the guarantee, corresponding to the debtors, the treatment must be differentiated according to the level of default of the refinanced credit and the grace period, which must consider the cumulative consecutive months grace period between the refinanced loan and other prior measures. For this purpose, the following situations should be considered:

 

-Refinancing with less than 60 days past due and less than 180 days of grace.

 

When the Bank grants the refinancing and is the current creditor, depending on the methodology used in accounting for provisions (standard or internal method) for the group portfolio, the computation of default and the expected loss parameters remain constant at the time to carry out the refinancing, as long as no payment is due.

 

In the case of debtors evaluated on an individual basis, their risk category is maintained at the time of rescheduling, which does not prevent them from being reclassified to the category that corresponds to them, in the event of a worsening of their payment capacity.

(vi) Charge-offs

 

As a general rule, the charge-offs are produced when the contractual rights on cash flows end. In case of loans, even if the above does not happen, it will proceed to charge-offs the respective asset balances.

 

The charge-off refers to derecognition of the assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, related to the respective transaction and, therefore, the part that could not be past-due if a loan is payable in installments, or a lease.

 

(vi.i) Charge-offs of loans to customers

 

The charge-off must be to make using credit risk provisions constituted, whatever the cause for which the charge-off was produced.

 

Charge-off loans to customers, other than leasing operations, shall be made in accordance to the following circumstances occurs:

 

a)The Bank, based on all available information, concludes that will not obtain any cash flow of the credit recorded as an asset.

     

b)When the debt without executive title expires 90 days after it was recorded in asset.
   
c)At the time the term set by the statute of limitations runs out and as result legal actions are precluded in order to request payment through executive trial or upon rejection or abandonment of title execution issued by judicial and non-recourse resolution.
   
d)When past-due term of a transaction complies with the following:

 

Type of Loan  Term
    
Consumer loans - secured and unsecured  6 months
Other transactions - unsecured  24 months
Commercial loans - secured  36 months
Residential mortgage loans  48 months

 

The term represents the time elapsed since the date on which payment of all or part of the obligation in default became due.

(vi.iii) Written-off loans recoveries

 

Cash recoveries on charge-off loans including loans that were reacquired from the Central Bank of Chile are recorded directly in income in the Consolidated Statement of Income, as a reduction of the “Recoveries of written-off loans” item.

 

In the event that there are recovery in assets, is recognized in income the revenues for the amount they are incorporated in the asset. The same criteria will be followed if the leased assets are recovered after the charge-off of a lease operation, to incorporate those to the asset.

 

Any renegotiation of a credit already written off does not give rise to income, as long as the operation remains to have an impaired quality; the actual payments received must be treated as recoveries of credits written off, as indicated above.

 

Therefore, renegotiated credit can be recorded as an asset only if it has not deteriorated quality; also recognizing revenue from activation must be recorded like recovery of loans.

 

The same criteria should apply in the case that was give credit to pay a charge-off loan.

Impairment due to credit risk of Financial assets at amortized cost and Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI):

 

In accordance with the established in Chapter A-2 of the CNC of the CMF, the impairment model of IFRS 9 will not be applied to loans in the category “Financial assets at amortized cost” (“Due from banks” and “Loans and accounts receivable from customers”), nor on “Contingent loans”, since the criteria for these instruments are defined in Chapters B-1 to B-3 of the CNC.

 

For the rest of the financial assets measured at Amortized Cost or FVOCI, the model on which impairment losses must be calculated corresponds to one of Expected Credit Loss (ECL) as established in IFRS 9.

Debt financial instruments whose subsequent valuation is at amortized cost or at FVOCI will be subject to impairment due to credit risk. On the contrary, those instruments at fair value through profit or loss do not require this measurement.

 

The measurement of impairment is carried out in accordance with a general impairment model that is based on the existence of 3 possible phases of the financial asset, the existence or not of a significant increase in credit risk and the condition of impairment. The 3 phases determine the amount of impairment that will be recognized as an expected credit loss, as well as the interest income that will be recorded at each reporting date. Each phase is listed below:

 

1. Phase 1:

 

a.Incorporates financial assets whose credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition.
   
b.Expected credit losses are recognized to 12-month.
   
c.Interest is recognized based on the gross amount on the balance sheet.

 

2. Phase 2:

 

a.Incorporates financial assets whose credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition.
   
b.Expected credit losses are recognized throughout the life of the financial asset.
   
c.Interest is recognized based on the gross amount on the balance sheet.

 

3. Phase 3:

 

a.Incorporates impaired financial assets.
   
b.Expected credit losses are recognized throughout the life of the financial asset.
   
c.Interest is recognized based on the net amount (gross amount on the balance sheet less allowance for credit risk).

Impairment of debt financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

 

The Bank applies the value impairment requirements for the recognition and measurement of a value correction for losses to financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income in accordance with IFRS 9. This value adjustment for losses is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) and does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The accumulated loss recognized in OCI is recycled in results when derecognizing the financial assets.

 

Financial liabilities:

 

Classification of financial liabilities

 

Financial liabilities are classified in the following categories:

 

-Financial liabilities at amortized cost;

 

-Financial liabilities held for trading at fair value through profit or loss: Financial instruments are recorded in this item when the Bank's objective is to generate profits through purchases and sales with these instruments. This item includes financial derivative trading contracts that are liabilities, which will be measured subsequently at fair value.

 

-Financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss: The Bank has the option to irrevocably designate, at the time of initial recognition, a financial liability as measured at fair value through profit or loss if the application of this criterion eliminates or significantly reduces inconsistencies in the measurement or recognition, or if it is a group of financial liabilities, or a group of financial assets and liabilities, that is managed, and its performance evaluated, based on fair value in line with a risk management or investment strategy.

 

Valuation of financial liabilities:

 

Initial valuation:

 

Financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair value, less transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the instruments, except for financial instruments that are classified at fair value through profit or loss.

 

Variations in the value of financial liabilities due to the accrual of interest, UF indexation and similar concepts are recorded under the headings "Interest expenses" of the Consolidated Income Statement for the period in which the accrual occurred (see Note No. 30).

 

Subsequent valuation:

 

The changes in the valuations that will occur after the initial registration for reasons other than those mentioned in the previous paragraph, are treated as described below, based on the categories in which the financial liabilities are classified.

Financial liabilities at amortized cost:

 

The liabilities recorded in this item are valued after their acquisition at their amortized cost, which is determined in accordance with the EIR method.

 

Financial liabilities held for trading and Financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss:

 

The liabilities recorded in these items are valued after their initial recognition at fair value and changes are recorded, at their net amount, under the items "Financial assets and liabilities for trading" and "Designated financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” of the Consolidated Income Statement. However, the change in the credit risk of the liabilities designated under the fair value option is presented in "Other comprehensive income". Nevertheless, the variations originating from exchange differences are recorded in the caption "Foreign currency changes, UF indexation and accounting hedge" of the Consolidated Income Statement.

 

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities

 

The Bank and its subsidiaries derecognize a financial asset from its Statement of Financial Position, when the contractual rights to the cash flows of the financial asset have expired or when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset are transferred during a transaction in which all ownership risks and rewards of the financial asset are transferred. Any portion of transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Bank is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

 

When the Bank transfers a financial asset, it assesses to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. In this case:

 

(a)If substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred, it is derecognized, and any rights or obligations created or retained upon transfer are recognized separately as assets or liabilities.

 

(b)If substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been retained, the Bank continues to recognize it.

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities, continued:

 

(c)If substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are neither transferred nor retained, the Bank will determine if it has retained control of the financial asset. In this case:

 

(i)If the Bank has not retained control, the financial asset will be derecognized, and any rights or obligations created or retained upon transfer will be recognized separately as assets or liabilities.

 

(ii)If the Bank has retained control, it will continue to recognize the financial asset in the Consolidated Financial Statement by an amount equal to its exposure to changes in value that can experience and recognize a financial liability associated to the transferred financial asset.

 

The Bank derecognizes a financial liability (or a portion thereof) from its Consolidated Statement of Financial Position if, and only if, it has extinguished or, in other words, when the obligation specified in the corresponding contract has been paid or settled or has expired.

 

Compensation

 

Financial assets and liabilities are subject to compensation, so that their net amount is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, when and only when the Bank has the right, legally enforceable, to offset the recognized amounts and intends to settle the net amount, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

 

Income and expenses are presented net only when permitted by accounting standards, or in the case of gains and losses arising from a group of similar transactions such as the Bank's trading and foreign exchange activity.

(f)Functional currency:

 

The items included in the Financial Statements of Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries are valued using the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (functional currency). The functional currency of Banco de Chile is the Chilean peso, which is also the currency used to present the entity’s Consolidated Financial Statements, that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Bank operates, as well as obeying to the currency that influences in the costs and income structure.

 

(g)Transactions in foreign currency:

 

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are considered to be in foreign currency and are initially recorded at the exchange rate of the functional currency on the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted using the exchange rate of the functional currency as of the date of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. All differences are recorded as a debit or credit to income.

 

As of March 31, 2022, the Bank and its subsidiaries applied the exchange rate of accounting representation according to the standards issued by the CMF, where assets expressed in dollars are shown to their equivalent value in Chilean pesos calculated using the following exchange rate of Ch$784.30 US$1 (Ch$852.63 US$1 as of March 31, 2021).

 

The amount of Ch$55,979 million for net foreign exchange transactions, net (Ch$30,198 million as of March 31, 2021) shown in the Consolidated Statements of Income, includes recognition of the effects of exchange rate variations on assets and liabilities in foreign currency or indexed to exchange rates, and the result of foreign exchange transactions conducted by the Bank and its subsidiaries.

 

(h)Operating Segments:

 

The Bank discloses information by segment in accordance with IFRS 8. The Bank’s operating segments are determined based on its different business units, considering the following:

 

(i)That it conducts business activities from which income is obtained and expenses are incurred (including income and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity).

 

(ii)That its operating results are reviewed regularly by the entity’s highest decision-making authority for operating decisions, to decide about resource allocation for the segment and evaluate its performance; and

 

(iii)That separate financial information is available.

(i)Statement of cash flows:

 

The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows shows the changes in cash and cash equivalents derived from operating activities, investment and financing activities during the year. The indirect method has been used in the preparation of this statement of cash flows.

 

For the preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements of Cash Flow it is considered the following concepts:

 

(i)Cash and cash equivalents: corresponds to the item "Cash and deposits in banks", plus (minus) the net balance corresponding to operations with liquidation in progress that are shown in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, plus other cash equivalents such as investments in short-term debt financial instruments that meet the criteria to be considered "cash equivalents", for which they must have an original maturity of 90 days or less from the date of acquisition, be highly liquid, easily convertible into amounts known amounts of cash as of the date of the initial investment, and that the financial instruments are exposed to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

 

(ii)Operating activities: corresponds to normal activities of the Bank, as well as other activities that cannot classify like investing or financing activities.

 

(iii)Investing activities: correspond to the acquisition, sale or disposition other forms, of long-term assets and other investments that not include in cash and cash equivalent.

 

(iv)Financing activities: corresponds to the activities that produce changes in the amount and composition of the equity and the liabilities that are not included in the operating or investing activities.

(j)Financial derivative contracts:

 

A “Financial Derivative” is a financial instrument whose value changes in response to changes in an observable market variable (such as an interest rate, exchange rate, the price of a financial instrument or a market index, including credit ratings), whose initial investment is very small in relation to other financial instruments with a similar response to changes in market conditions and which is generally settled at a future date.

 

The Bank maintains contracts of Derivative financial instruments, for cover the exposition of risk of foreign currency and interest rate. These contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at their cost (included transactions costs) and subsequently measured at fair value. Derivative instruments are reported as an asset when their fair value is positive and as a liability when negative under the item “Derivative Instruments”.

 

Changes in fair value of derivative contracts held for trading purpose are included under “Profit (loss) net of financial operations”, in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

 

In addition, the Bank includes in the valorization of derivatives the “Credit valuation adjustment” (CVA), to reflect the counterparty risk in the determination of fair value and the Bank's own credit risk, known as "Debit valuation adjustment" (DVA).

 

Certain embedded derivatives in other financial instruments are treated as separate derivatives when their risk and characteristics are not closely related to those of the main contract and if the contract in its entirety is not recorded at its fair value with its unrealized gains and losses included in income.

 

(k)Financial derivative contracts for accounting hedges:

 

At the moment of subscription of a derivative contract must be designated by the Bank as a derivative instrument for trading or hedging purposes.

 

If a derivative instrument is classified as a hedging instrument, it can be:

 

(1)A hedge of the fair value of existing assets or liabilities or firm commitments, or;

 

(2)A hedge of cash flows related to existing assets or liabilities or forecasted transactions.

(k)Financial derivative contracts for accounting hedges, continued:

 

A hedge relationship for accounting hedges purposes must comply with all of the following conditions:

 

(a)at its inception, the hedge relationship has been formally documented;

 

(b)it is expected that the hedge will be highly effective;

 

(c)the effectiveness of the hedge can be measured in a reasonable manner; and

 

(d)the hedge is highly effective with respect to the hedged risk on an ongoing basis and throughout the entire hedge relationship.

 

The Bank presents and measures individual hedges (where there is a specific identification of hedged item and hedged instruments) by classification, according to the following criteria:

 

Fair value hedges: Changes in the fair value of a derivative hedging instrument, designated as a fair value hedge, are recognized in income under the lines "Net interest income" and "Net indexation income" and/or "Foreign currency changes, UF indexation and accounting hedge”, depending on the type of risk covered. The hedged item is also presented at fair value in relation to the risk being hedged; gains or losses attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in income under the lines "Net interest income" and "Net income from UF indexation" and adjust the book value of the item subject to the hedge.

 

Cash flow hedge: Changes in the fair value of financial instruments derivative designated like “cash flow hedge” are recognised in “Cash flow accounting hedge” included in the Consolidated Other Comprehensive Income, to the extent that hedge is effective and hedge is reclassified to income in the item “Net interest income” and "Net income from UF indexation" and/or “Foreign currency changes, UF indexation and accounting hedge”, when hedged item affects the income of the Bank produced for the “interest rate risk” or “foreign exchange risk”, respectively. If the hedge is not effective, the changes in the fair value are recognized directly in the results of the year under the caption "Other financial result".

 

If the hedged instruments does not comply with criteria of cash flow accounting hedges, it expires or is sold, it suspend or executed, this hedge must be discontinued prospectively. Accumulated gains or losses recognised previously in the equity are maintained there until projected transactions occur, in that moment will be registered in Consolidated Statement of Income (in the item “Net interest income” and "Net income from UF indexation" and/or “Foreign currency changes, UF indexation and accounting hedge”, depend of the hedge), lesser than it foresees that the transaction will not execute, in this case it will be registered immediately in Consolidated Statement of Income (in the item “Net interest income” and "Net income from UF indexation" and/or “Foreign currency changes, UF indexation and accounting hedge”, depend of the hedge).

(l)Intangible Assets:

 

Intangible assets are identified as non-monetary assets (separately identifiable from other assets) without physical substance which arise as a result of a legal transaction or are developed internally by the consolidated entities. They are assets whose cost can be estimated reliably and from which the consolidated entities have control and consider it probable that future economic benefits will be generated. Intangible assets are recorded initially at acquisition cost and are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated amortization or any accumulated impairment losses.

 

Software or computer programs purchased by the Bank and its subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses.

 

The subsequent expense in software assets is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefit for the specific asset. All other expenses are recorded as an expense as incurred.

 

Amortization is recorded in income using the straight-line amortization method based on the estimated useful life of the software, from the date on which it is available for use. The estimated useful life of software is a maximum of 6 years.

 

(m)Property and equipment:

 

Property and equipment includes the amount of land, real estate, furniture, computer equipment and other installations owned by the consolidated entities and which are for own use. These assets are stated at historical cost less depreciation and accumulated impairment. This cost includes expenses than have been directly attributed to the asset’s acquisition.

 

Depreciation is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property and equipment.

 

The estimated average useful lives for the years 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

 

- Buildings  50 years
- Installations  10 years
- Equipment  5 years
- Supplies and accessories  5 years

 

Maintenance expenses relating to those assets held for own uses are recorded as expenses in the year in which they are incurred.

(n)Deferred taxes and income taxes:

 

The income tax provision of the Bank and its subsidiaries has been determined in conformity with current legal regulations.

 

The Bank and its subsidiaries recognize, when appropriate, deferred tax assets and liabilities for future estimates of tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the book and tax values of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured based on the tax rate expected to be applied, in accordance with current tax law, in the year that deferred tax assets are realized or liabilities are settled. The effects of future changes in tax legislation or tax rates are recognized in deferred taxes starting on the date of publication of the law approving such changes.

 

Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is likely that future tax profits will be sufficient to recover deductions for temporary differences. According to instructions from the CMF, deferred taxes are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position according with IAS 12 "Income Tax".

 

(o)Assets received in lieu of payment:

 

Assets received or awarded in lieu of payment of loans and accounts receivable from customers are recorded, in the case of assets received in lieu of payment, at the price agreed by the parties, or otherwise, when the parties do not reach an agreement, at the amount at which the Bank is awarded those assets at a judicial auction.

 

Assets received in lieu of payment are classified under “Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale” and they are recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or net realizable value, less charge-off and presented net of a portfolio valuation allowance. The CMF requires regulatory charge-offs if the asset is not sold within a one year of foreclosure.

 

(p)Investment properties:

 

Investments properties are real estate assets held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both, but are not held-for-sale in the ordinary course of business or used for administrative purposes. Investment properties are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairments and are presented under “Other Assets”.

(q)Provisions, contingent assets and liabilities:

 

Provisions are liabilities involving uncertainty about their amount or maturity. They are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the following requirements are jointly met:

 

(i)a present obligation has arisen from a past event;

 

(ii)as of the date of the Financial Statements it is probable that the Bank or its subsidiaries have to disburse resources to settle the obligation; and

 

(iii)the amount of these resources can be reliably measured.

 

A contingent asset or liability is any right or obligation arising from past events whose existence will be confirmed by one or more uncertain future events which are not within the control of the Bank.

 

Contingent credits are understood as operations or commitments in which the Bank assumes a credit risk by committing itself to third parties, in the event of a future event, to make a payment or disbursement that must be recovered from its clients.

 

The following are classified as contingent credits in off-balance sheet information:

 

i.Undrawn credit lines: Considers the unused amounts of lines of credit that allow customers to make use of credit without prior decisions by the bank.

 

ii.Undrawn credit lines with immediate termination: Considers those undrawn credit lines, defined in the previous numeral, that the bank can unconditionally cancel at any time and without prior notice, or for which its automatic cancellation is contemplated in case of deterioration of the debtor's solvency, as permitted by the current legal framework and the contractual conditions established between the parties.

 

iii.Contingent credits linked to the CAE: Correspond to credit commitments granted in accordance with Law No. 20,027 (“CAE”).

 

iv.Letters of credit for goods circulation operations: Considers the commitments that arise, both to the issuing bank and to the confirming bank, from self-settled commercial letters of credit with a maturity period of less than 1 year, arising from merchandise circulation operations (for example, confirmed foreign or documentary letters of credit). Includes documentary letters of credit issued by the Bank, which have not yet been negotiated.

 

v.Debt purchase commitments in local currency abroad: Note issuance facility (NIF) and revolving underwriting facility (RUF) are considered.

In addition, it includes the payment guarantees of buyers in factoring operations, as indicated in Chapter 8-38 of that Compilation.

 

viii.Other credit commitments: It includes the unplaced amounts of committed credits, which must be disbursed on an agreed future date or processed when the contractually foreseen events occur with the client, as occurs in the case of irrevocable credit lines linked to the progress status of projects (in which for provisions purposes, both the gross exposure referred to in No. 3 and future increases in the amount of guarantees associated with committed disbursements must be considered).

 

Exposure to credit risk on contingent loans:

 

Until December 31, 2021, to calculate provisions on contingent loans, as indicated in Chapter B-3 of the Accounting Standards Compendium of the CMF, the amount of exposure was determined considering the percentage of the amounts of the contingent credits indicated below:

 

Type of contingent loan  Exposure 
a) Warranty by endorsement and sureties   100%
b) Confirmed foreign letters of credit   20%
c) Issued letters of credit   20%

Notwithstanding, when dealing with transactions performed with customers with overdue loans as indicated in Chapter B-1 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards of the CMF, that exposure shall be equivalent to 100% of its contingent loans.

 

(r)Provisions for minimum dividends:

 

According with the Accounting Standards Compendium of the CMF, the Bank records within liabilities the portion of net income for the year that should be distributed to comply with the Corporations Law or its dividend policy. For these purposes, the Bank establishes a provision in a complementary equity account within retained earnings.

 

For purposes of calculating the provision of minimum dividends, the distributable net income is considered, which is defined as that which results from reducing or adding to the net income for the year, the correction of the value of the paid-in capital and reserves, due to the effects of the variation of the Consumer Price Index.

(s)Employee benefits:

 

Employee benefits are all forms of consideration granted by an entity in exchange for services provided by employees or severance pay.

 

Short-term employee benefits are employee benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled in full before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees have rendered the related services.

 

i)Staff vacations

 

The annual costs of vacations and staff benefits are recognized on an accrual basis.

 

(ii)Other short-term benefits

 

The entity contemplates for its employees an annual incentive plan for meeting objectives and individual contribution to the company’s results, which are eventually delivered, consisting of a certain number or portion of monthly salaries and are provisioned based on the estimated amount to be distributed.

 

Other long-term employee benefits are all employee benefits other than short-term employee benefits, post-employment benefits, and termination benefits.

 

(iii)Employee benefits for termination of employment contract

 

The Bank has agreed with part of the staff the payment of compensation to those who have completed 30 or 35 years of permanence, in the event that they retired from the Institution. The proportional part accrued by those employees who will have access to exercise the right to this benefit and who at the end of the year have not yet acquired it has been incorporated into this obligation.

 

The obligations of this benefit plan are valued according to the projected credit unit method, including as variables the staff turnover rate, the expected salary growth and the probability of using this benefit, discounted at the current rate for long-term operations (6.49% as of March 31, 2022 and 5.70% as of December 31, 2021).

 

The discount rate used corresponds to the rate of 10-year Bonds in pesos of the Central Bank of Chile (BCP).

 

Gains and losses arising from changes in actuarial variables are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. There are no other additional costs that should be recognized by the Bank.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Principles, continued:

 

(t)Earnings per share:

 

The basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the net income attributed to the Bank's owners in a period and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during that period.

 

Diluted earnings per share are determined similarly to basic earnings, but the weighted average number of outstanding shares is adjusted to take into account the potential dilutive effect of the options on shares, warrants and convertible debt. At the end of the periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 there are no concepts to adjust.

 

(u)Interest revenue and expense and UF indexation:

 

Interest income and expenses and UF indexation are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate which exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument (or a shorter period) where appropriate, to the carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. To calculate the effective interest rate, the Bank determines cash flows by taking into account all contractual conditions of the financial instrument, excluding future credit losses.

 

The effective interest rate calculation includes all fees and other amounts paid or received that form part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are directly attributable to the purchase or issuance of a financial asset or liability.

 

In the case of the impaired portfolio and current loans with a high risk of irrecoverability of loans and accounts receivable from customers, the Bank has applied a conservative position of discontinuing the accrual of interest and UF indexation on an accrual basis in the Consolidated Statement of Income, when the credit or one of its installments has been 90 days default in its payment.

 

(v)Commission income and expenses:

 

Revenue and expenses from fees are recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement using the criteria established in IFRS 15 "Revenue from contracts with customers”.

 

Under IFRS 15, revenues are recognized considering the terms of the contract with customers. Revenue is recognized when or as the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the goods or services committed to the customer.

(v)Commission income and expenses, continued:

 

Under IFRS 15, revenues are recognized using different criteria depending on their nature. The most significant are:

 

Those that correspond to a singular act, when the act that originates them takes place.

 

Those that originate in transactions or services that are extended over time, during the life of such transactions or services.

 

Commissions on loan commitments and other fees related to credit operations are deferred (together with the incremental costs directly related to the placement) and recognized as an adjustment to the effective interest rate of the placement. In the case of loan commitments, when there is no certainty of the date of effective placement, the commissions are recognized in the period of the commitment that originates it on a linear basis.

 

The fees registered by the Bank correspond mainly to:

 

Commissions for credit prepayment: These commissions are accrued at the time the credits are prepaid.

 

Commissions for lines of credit and overdrafts: These commissions are accrued in the period related to the granting of lines of credit and overdrafts in checking accounts.

 

Commissions for warranty by endorsement and letters of credit: These commissions are accrued in the period related to the granting by the bank of payment guarantees for real or contingent obligations of third parties.

 

Commissions for card services: Correspond to commissions accrued for the period, related to the use of credit cards, debit cards and other.

Commissions for compensation of large value payments: corresponds to commissions paid to entities such as ComBanc, CCLV Contraparte Central, etc.

 

(w)Impairment of non-financial assets

 

The carrying amounts of the non-financial assets of the Bank and its subsidiaries, are reviewed throughout the year and especially at each reporting date, to determine if any indication of impairment exists. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is then estimated.

 

Impairment losses recognized in prior years are assessed at each reporting date in search of any indication that the loss has decreased or disappeared. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimations used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reverted only to the extent that the book value of the asset does not exceed the carrying. Impairment losses related to goodwill cannot be reversed in future years.

 

The Bank assesses at each reporting date and on an ongoing basis whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, the Bank estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the major value between fair value (less costs to sell) and its value in use. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, share prices and other available fair value indicators.

(x)Financial and operating leases:

 

(i)The Bank acting as lessor

 

Assets leased to customers under agreements which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, with or without ultimate legal title, are classified as finance leases. When assets held are subject to a finance lease, the leased assets are derecognized and a receivable is recognized which is equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating, and arranging a finance lease are incorporated into the receivable through the discount rate applied to the lease. Finance lease income is recognized over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the finance lease.

 

Assets leased to customers under agreements, which do not transfer substantially all the risks, and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases.

 

The leased investment properties, under the operating lease modality, are included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as “Other assets” and depreciation is determined on the book value of these assets, applying a proportion of the value in a systematic way on the economic use of the estimated useful life. Lease income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

(ii)The Bank acting as lessee

 

A contract is, or contains a lease, if one party has the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for a regular payment.

 

On the start date of a lease, a right-to-use assets leased is determined at cost, which includes the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability plus other disbursements made.

 

The amount of the lease liability is measured at the present value of future lease payments that have not been paid on that date, which are discounted using the Bank's incremental financing interest rate.

 

The right-of-use asset is measured using the cost model, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated losses due to impairment of value, depreciation of the right-of-use asset, is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income based on the linear depreciation method from the start date and until the end of the lease term.

 

The monthly variation of the UF for the contracts established in said monetary unit should be treated as a new measurement, therefore the UF readjustment modifies the value of the lease liability, and in parallel, the amount of the right-of-use asset must be adjusted by this effect.

 

After the start date, the lease liability is measured by lowering the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and the modifications to the lease.

 

According to IFRS 16 "Leases" the Bank does not apply this rule to contracts whose duration is 12 months or less and those that contain an underlying asset of low value. In these cases, payments are recognized as a lease expense.

(y)Fiduciary activities:

 

The Bank provides trust and other fiduciary services that result in the holding or investing of assets on behalf of the clients. Assets held in a fiduciary capacity are not reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements, as they are not the assets of the Bank. Contingencies and commitments arising from this activity are disclosed in Note No. 29.

 

(z)Customer loyalty program:

 

The Bank maintains a loyalty program to provide incentives to its customers, which allows to acquire goods and/or services, based on the exchange of prize points ("Dolares-Premio"), which are granted based on the purchases made with Bank's credit cards and the compliance of certain conditions established in said program. A third party makes the consideration for the prizes. In accordance with IFRS 15, these associated benefit plans have the necessary provisions to meet the delivery of committed future performance obligations.

 

(aa)Additional provisions:

 

In accordance to the CMF regulations, the banks have recorded additional allowances for its individually evaluated loan portfolio, taking into consideration the expected impairment of this portfolio. The calculation of this allowance is performed based on the Bank’s historical experience and considering possible future adverse macroeconomic conditions or circumstances that could affect a specific sector.

 

The provisions made in order to forestall the risk of macroeconomic fluctuations should anticipate situations reversal of expansionary economic cycles in the future, could translate into a worsening in the conditions of the economic environment and thus, function as a countercyclical mechanism accumulation of additional provisions when the scenario is favorable and release or assignment to specific provisions when environmental conditions deteriorate.

 

According to the above, additional provisions must always correspond to general provisions on commercial, consumer or mortgage loans, or segments identified, and in no case may be used to offset weaknesses of the models used by the Bank.

 

As of March 31, 2022, the balance of additional provisions amounts to Ch$610,252 million (Ch$540,252 million in December 2021), which are presented in the caption "Provisions for dividends" of liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Principles, continued:

 

(ac)Fair value measurement

 

“Fair value” is understood as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between participants in a principal (or more advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions, independent whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. The most objective and usual reference of fair value is the price that would be paid in an active, transparent and deep market (“quoted price” or “market price”).

 

When available, the Bank estimates the fair value of an instrument using quoted prices in an active market for that instrument. A market is considered active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available and represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis.

 

If a market for a financial instrument is not active, the Bank establishes fair value using a valuation technique. These valuation techniques include the use of recent market transactions between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, if available, as well as references to the fair value of other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flows and options pricing models.

 

The chosen valuation technique makes maximum use of information obtained in the market, using the least possible amount of data estimated by the Bank, incorporates all the factors that market participants would consider to establish the price, and will be consistent with generally accepted economic methodologies for calculating the price of financial instruments. The variables used by the valuation technique reasonably represent market expectations and reflect the return-risk factors inherent to the financial instrument. Periodically, the Bank calibrates the valuation techniques and tests it for validity using prices from observable current market transaction in the same instrument or based on available observable market information.

 

The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is the transaction price (i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or received) unless the fair value of that instrument is evidenced by comparison with other observable current market transactions in the same instrument (i.e. without modification or repackaging) or based on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from observable markets. However, when transaction price provides the best evidence of fair value at initial recognition, the financial instrument is initially measured at the transaction price and any difference between this price and the value initially obtained from a valuation model is subsequently recognized in incomes.

 

On the other hand, it should be noted that the Bank has financial assets and liabilities offset each other’s market risks, based on which average market prices are used as a basis for determining their fair value.

 

Then, the fair value estimates obtained from models are adjusted for any other factors, such as liquidity risk or model uncertainties; to the extent that the Bank believes that a third-party market participant would take them into account in pricing a transaction.

 

The Bank’s fair value disclosures are included in Note No. 44.

 

(ac)Reclassifications:

 

As of March 31, 2022, there have been no significant reclassifications.

Standards approved and/or modified by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and by the Commission for the Financial Market (CMF):

 

Standards and interpretations that have been adopted in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

As of the date of issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements, the new accounting pronouncements issued by both the IASB and the CMF, which have been adopted by the Bank and its subsidiaries, are detailed below:

 

Accounting standards issued by IASB.

 

Limited Scope Amendments and Annual Improvements 2018-2020.

 

In May 2020, the IASB published a package of amendments of limited scope, as well as the 2018-2020 Annual Improvements, whose changes clarify the wording or correct minor consequences, omissions or conflicts between the requirements of the Standards.

 

Among other modifications, it contains amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, which specify the costs that an entity must include when evaluating whether a contract will cause losses, these costs include those that are directly related to the contract and may be incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (for example, direct labor and materials), or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to the fulfillment of contracts (for example, the allocation of the depreciation charge for an item of property, plant and equipment used to perform the contract).

 

These amendments are effective as of January 1, 2022. Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries had no impact on the Interim Consolidated Statements of Position as a result of the application of these amendments.

 

Accounting standards issued by CMF.

 

Circulars No. 2,243, No. 2,249 and No. 2,295 - Amends Compendium of Accounting Standards for Banks.

 

On December 20, 2019, the CMF published Circular No. 2,243, which updates the instructions of the Accounting Standards Compendium (CNC) for Banks.

 

The changes seek achieve greater convergence with IFRS, as well as an improvement in the quality of financial information, to contribute to the financial stability and transparency of the banking system.

 

In April 2020, the CMF issued Circular No. 2,249, which postponed the entry into force of the new CNCB to January 1, 2022, with a transition date of January 1, 2021.

3.New Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Adopted, or Issued that have not yet been Adopted, continued:

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the change of criteria for the suspension of the recognition of interest income and UF indexation on an accrual basis according to the Chapter B-2, had to be adopted no later than January 1, 2022. By virtue of this standard, the Bank’s Management implemented in advance during 2021 the suspension of the recognition of interest and readjustments on an accrual basis after 90 days of delinquency, which did not have a significant impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements, it should be noted that Before the change, the suspension of the recognition of interest income and UF indexation occurred after 6 months of default.

 

On October 7, 2021, the CMF issued Circular No. 2,295, which updates the Compendium of Accounting Standards for Banks (CNCB) that is in force from 2022 and introduces various adjustments to the files of the Information System Manual. In this way, the accounting information necessary to agree the Financial Statements with the full implementation of Basel III is incorporated, in addition to making some clarifications in its instructions, arising both from the internal analysis and from inquiries received from actors of the banking system. Likewise, this Circular adds a term to implement the criterion for grouping debtors whose aggregate exposure must be measured jointly, established in literal i) of No. 3 of Chapter B-1, which must be considered as of July 1, 2022.

 

As a result of the application of the new CNC instructions, the main equity effects measured as of January 1, 2022 correspond to the valuation of financial assets due to the adoption of IFRS 9 in replacement of IAS 39, in provisions for contingent credits as a result of the modification of the Credit Conversion Factor (CCF) and in the deferred taxes associated with these modifications. The foregoing had an impact of an increase in equity for a net amount of approximately Ch$70,508 million (see note No. 4 Accounting Changes).

 

Circular No. 2,297. On the control of the limit that banks must observe when granting financing to business groups.

 

On November 3, 2021, the new Chapter 12-16 “Limit of credits granted to business groups” is incorporated into the Updated Compilation of Regulations for banks (RAN by its Spanish initials), which establishes the scope and exceptions for the control of the credit limit granted to business groups referred to in the seventh subparagraph of article 84 No. 1 of the General Banking Law, together with the manner of making up the payrolls of the business groups and the entities that compose them for that purpose; as well as, the way of computing the credits granted to entities belonging to the same business group is defined, in order to determine their degree of credit concentration and compliance with the aforementioned limit. The new file D60 “Operations with entities belonging to the same business group” is incorporated into the Information System Manual (ISM), the purpose of which is for banks to report monthly the information referring to the daily operations carried out with entities belonging to a same business group, in addition to identifying the groups to which they belong and the amounts owed.

 

The adoption of this circular does not have significant impacts for the Bank.

Circular No. 2,305. Amendment to the annex for the disclosure of Capital Adequacy Ratios of chapter C-1 of the CNC.

 

On February 16, 2022, the CMF published this circular that modifies Table No. 2 of Annex No. 6 of Chapter C-1 of the CNC, in which it is required to disclose in the quarterly and annual Consolidated Financial Statements a summary of capital adequacy ratios and regulatory compliance ratios according to Basel III.

 

The modification is due to the fact that the CMF considers that the current version of this table is not broad enough to collect information to assess whether the bank’s capital adequacy level meets the regulatory requirements at all levels of capital, as it is, for example, to determine the deficit of the capital buffers that defines the percentage of dividends that the bank can distribute by virtue of what is stated in Chapter 21-12 of the Updated Compilation of Regulations for banks. Additionally, the table asks to disclose the level of compliance of the buffers in the Tier 1 Capital.

 

The adoption of these disclosures is included in these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (see note No. 48).

 

Circular No. 2,307. Updates and modifies the administration regulations of the guarantee fund for small and medium-sized entrepreneurs.

 

On February 24, 2022, this circular was issued that relaxes the requirements and conditions for the delivery of financing with a FOGAPE guarantee and, at the same time, safeguards an adequate management of the credit risk of the institutions that avail themselves of said guarantees.

 

The new dispositions apply to future bids carried out by the Administrator of the Fund (Banco Estado).

 

The adoption of this circular has no impact on these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Circulars issued in the process of implementing the Basel III standards.

 

As of the date of issuance of these Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, the CMF has issued the following circulars related to the regulatory framework of Basel III:

 

Circular 2,270. Issued on September 11, 2020, sets the general criteria and guidelines for the determination of additional equity requirements as a result of the supervision process, called Pillar 2.

 

This standard updates Chapter 1-13 “Management and solvency classification” and introduces the new Chapter 21-13 “Evaluation of the adequacy of effective equity of banks” to the RAN.

As of 2023, the report with all its sections will be required, considering all the material risks of the institution.

 

Circular No. 2,272. September 25, 2020, the CMF published the regulations that define the operating procedures for the calculation, implementation and supervision of additional capital charges, known as capital buffers (Conservation Buffer and a Countercyclical Buffer).

 

This rule incorporates Chapter 21-12 “Additional basic capital, articles 66 bis and 66 ter of the General Banking Act (LGB, for its Spanish initials)” into the RAN. This rule establishes that, as of December 1, 2021, the requirement of the Conservation Buffer will be 0.625%, increasing by the same percentage each year, until reaching the regime on December 1, 2024. The same transitory requirement will apply to the maximum value of the Countercyclical Buffer that can be defined by the Chile Central Bank.

 

Circular No. 2,273. On October 5, 2020, the CMF issued the norm that regulates the calculation of the relationship between Common Equity Tier 1 and total assets (leverage ratio). Incorporates Chapter 21-30 “Relationship between Common Equity Tier 1 and total assets” into the RAN. The standard introduces improvements both in the measurement of Common Equity Tier 1 and of the bank’s total assets.

 

This standard is effective as of December 1, 2020, without prejudice to the transitory measures for the calculation of regulatory capital, contemplated in Title V of Chapter 21-1 “Equity for legal and regulatory purposes” of the RAN.

 

Circular No. 2,274. On October 8, 2020, the CMF established the guidelines for calculating equity for legal and regulatory purposes, debugging low quality items or whose value is uncertain in a settlement scenario and sets prudential concentration rules, in accordance with the current legal framework. Incorporates Chapter 21-1 “Equity for legal and regulatory purposes” replacing Chapter 12-1 “Equity for legal and regulatory purposes” into the RAN.

 

The first adjustment must be made on December 1, 2022, corresponding to 15% of the discounts. This amount will increase to 30% on December 1, 2023 and 65% on December 1, 2024, until reaching full implementation as of December 1, 2025.

 

Circular No. 2,276. On November 2, 2020, the CMF, with the prior favorable agreement of the Central Bank of Chile, established the dispositions that have as a reference framework the evaluation methodology established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and international practice, considered for the identification and treatment of banks classified as systemically important at the local level. It incorporates into the RAN Chapter 21-11 “Factors and methodology for banks or group of banks rated as systemically important and requirements that may be imposed as a result of this rating”.

 

The requirements derived from the first application may be gradually established. The initial charge in December 2021 will be 0% and will increase by 25% each year until reaching the regime in December 2025.

Circular No. 2,279. On November 24, 2020, the CMF incorporated Chapter 21-2 into the RAN, which contains the minimum requirements and conditions that preference shares and bonds with no fixed maturity term must satisfy in article 55 bis of the LGB and Chapter 21-3 of the RAN which contains the minimum requirements and conditions that subordinate bonds must satisfy in article 55 of the LGB, this chapter repeals and replaces chapter 9-6 of the RAN. These regulations came into effect on December 1, 2020, the date on which banks determined the level of capital AT1 and T2 that is applicable, in accordance with the regulations.

 

During the first year of application, subordinated bonds and voluntary provisions may be computed as equivalent to AT1 instruments, with a limit of 1.5% of the RWA net of required provisions. From December 1, 2021, the substitution limit will progressively decrease (by 0.5%) to reach 0% in 4 years.

 

Circular No. 2,280. On December 1, 2020, the CMF issued the definitive norm related to the standardized methodology for computing ORWAs, incorporating chapter 21-8 to the RAN. The dispositions of this new Chapter consider the methodology established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision as a reference framework.

 

For the computation of operational risk, a single standard method is established, in accordance with the recommendations of the aforementioned Committee, not allowing the use of own methodologies for this type of risk.

 

The regulations entered into force on December 1, 2020. Also, it was established that until December 1, 2021, Operational Risk-Weighted Assets are equal to zero.

 

Circular No. 2,281. Issued on December 1, 2020, it corresponds to the definitive regulations related to the determination of the Credit Risk-Weighted Assets, incorporating chapter 21-6 to the RAN.

 

As set out in the Article 67 of the LGB, it is up to the CMF to establish standardized methodologies to cover the relevant risks of banking companies, among which is credit risk, with a prior favorable agreement from the Central Bank of Chile.

 

This new standard includes a transitory disposition, which establishes that the computation of Credit Risk-Weighted Assets is carried out in accordance with the current dispositions of Title II of Chapter 12-1 of the RAN, until November 30, 2021, and the new methodology must be applied from December 1, 2021.

 

Circular No. 2,282. Issued on December 1, 2020, this standard incorporated the new Chapter 21-7 on the determination of Market Risk-Weighted Assets (MRWA) into the RAN.

Circular No. 2,300. On November 25, 2021, the CMF establishes clarifications to the definition of subfactors of the index of systemic importance, contained in Table 106 of the Bank Information System Manual (ISM).

 

Circular No. 2,303.

New Standards and interpretations that have been issued but their application date is not yet in force:

 

The following is a summary of new standards, interpretations and improvements to the International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that are not yet effective as of March 31, 2022.

 

Accounting standards issued by IASB.

 

IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Venture and IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In September 2014, the IASB published this modification, which clarifies the scope of the profits and losses recognized in a transaction that involves an associate or joint venture, and that this depends on whether the asset sold or contribution constitutes a business. Therefore, the IASB concluded that all gains or losses should be recognized against loss of control of a business.

 

Likewise, the gains or losses that result from the sale or contribution of a subsidiary that does not constitute a business (definition of IFRS 3) to an associate or joint venture should be recognized only to the extent of unrelated interests in the associate or joint venture.

 

During December 2015, the IASB agreed to set the effective date of this modification in the future, allowing its immediate application.

 

Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries will have no impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements as a result of the application of this amendment.

 

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement No. 2 Accounting Policy Disclosures.

 

In February 2021, the IASB published amendments to IAS 1 to require companies to disclose material information on accounting policies, the foregoing in order to improve the disclosures of their accounting policies and provide useful information to investors and other users of financial statements.

 

63

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, continued

_____________

 

3.New Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Adopted, or Issued that have not yet been Adopted, continued:

 

To help entities apply the amendments to IAS 1, the Board also amended IFRS Practice Statement No. 2 to illustrate how an entity can judge whether accounting policy information is material to its financial statements.

 

The amendments to IAS 1 will be effective for Financial Statement presentation periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early application is permitted. If an entity applies those amendments to prior periods, it must disclose that fact.

 

The application of this amendment will not generate material impacts on the disclosure of accounting policies in the Consolidated Financial Statements of Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries.

 

IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. Definition of Accounting Estimate.

 

In February 2021, the IASB incorporated changes to the definition of accounting estimates contained in IAS 8, the amendments to IAS are intended to help entities distinguish changes in accounting estimates from changes in accounting policies.

 

The amendments to IAS 8 will be effective for Financial Statement presentation periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early application is permitted.

 

The application of this amendment will not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements of Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries.

 

IAS 12 Income Tax.

 

In May 2021 the IASB published amendments to IAS 12, to specify how companies should account for deferred taxes on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations.

 

IAS 12 Income Tax specifies how a company accounts for income tax, including deferred tax, which represents tax to be paid or recovered in the future. In certain circumstances, companies are exempt from recognizing deferred taxes when they first recognize assets or liabilities. Prior to the amendment, there was some uncertainty as to whether the exemption applied to transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations, transactions for which companies recognize both an asset and a liability.

 

The amendments clarify that the exemption does not apply and that companies are required to recognize deferred taxes on such transactions. The purpose of the amendments is to reduce the differences in reporting deferred tax on leases and decommissioning obligations.

 

The amendments are effective for the presentation periods of the Financial Statements beginning on January 1, 2023, and early application is permitted.

 

The implementation of this amendment will not have a material impact on Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries.

4.Accounting Changes:

 

The CMF through its Circular No. 2,243 dated December 20, 2019, subsequently supplemented by Circular No. 2,295 dated October 7, 2021, released the rules that update the instructions of the Compendium of Accounting Standards for Banks (CNC) effective as of January 1, 2022.

 

These modifications seek to achieve greater convergence with IFRS, as well as an improvement in the quality of financial information, to contribute to the financial stability and transparency of the banking system.

 

The main changes introduced to the CNC correspond to:

 

1)Incorporation of new presentation formats for the Statements of Financial Position, Statements of Income, Statements of Changes in Equity and Statements of Cash Flows, as well as the incorporation and modification of some disclosures, among which stand out: note on financial assets at amortized cost and note on risk management and reporting, in order to better comply with the disclosure criteria contained in IFRS 7. In addition, the disclosures on related parties are aligned according to IAS 24.

 

2)Incorporation of a Financial Report, which must be prepared in accordance with IASB practice document No. 1, which will complement the information provided by the interim and annual financial statements.

 

3)Changes in the accounting plan of Chapter C-3 of the CNC, both in the coding of accounts, as well as in their description. The foregoing corresponds to the detailed information of the formats for the Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Income and the Statement of Other Comprehensive Income.

 

4)Changes in the presentation of financial instruments in the Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Income, when adopting IFRS 9 to replace IAS 39.

 

5)Incorporation of IFRS 9 with the exception of Chapter 5.5 on impairment of loans classified as “financial assets at amortized cost”. This exception is mainly due to prudential criteria set by the CMF. These criteria have given rise, over time, to the establishment of standard models that banking institutions must apply to determine the impairment of the credit portfolio.

 

6)Modification of the criteria for the suspension of the recognition of interest income and UF indexation on an accrual basis, for any credit that presents a delinquency equal to or greater than 90 days.

6.Business Segments, continued:

 

The financial information used to measure the performance of the Bank’s business segments is not comparable with similar information from other financial institutions because each institution relies on its own definitions. The accounting policies applied to the segments is the same as those described in the summary of accounting principles. The Bank obtains the majority of the results for: interest, indexation and commissions and financial operations and changes, discounting provisions for credit risk and operating expenses. Management is mainly based on these concepts to evaluate the performance of the segments and make decisions about the goals and allocations of resources of each unit. Although the results of the segments reconcile with those of the Bank at the total level, this is not necessarily the case in terms of the different concepts, given that management is measured and controlled individually and not on a consolidated basis, applying the following criteria:

 

The net interest margin of loans and deposits is obtained aggregating the net financial margins of each individual operation of credit and uptake made by the bank. For these purposes, the volume of each operation and its contribution margin are considered, which in turn corresponds to the difference between the effective rate of the customer and the internal transfer price established according to the term and currency of each operation. Additionally, the net margin includes the result of interest and indexation from the accounting hedges.

 

Provisions for credit risk are determined at the customer and counterparty level based on the characteristics of each of their operations. In the case of additional provisions, these are assigned to the different business segments based on the credit risk weighted assets that each segment has.

 

The capital and its financial impacts on outcome have been assigned to each segment based on the risk-weighted assets.

 

Operational expenses are reflected at the level of the different functional areas of the Bank. The allocation of expenses from functional areas to business segments is done using different allocation criteria, at the level of the different concepts and expense items.

 

Taxes are managed at a corporate level and are not allocated to business segments.

 

For the periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 there was no income from transactions with a customer or counterparty that accounted for 10% or more of the Bank’s total revenues.

12.Derivative Financial Instruments for hedging purposes, continued:

 

(b)Fair value Hedges:

 

The Bank uses cross-currency swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged elements of loans. The aforementioned hedge instruments change the effective cost of long-term assets from a fixed interest rate to a floating rate, decreasing the duration and modifying the sensitivity to the shortest segments of the curve.

 

Below is a detail of the hedged elements and instruments under fair value hedges as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Hedge instrument          
Cross currency swap   1,830    1,788 
Interest rate swap        

  

(c)Cash flow Hedges:

 

(c.1)The Bank uses cross currency swaps to hedge the risk from variability of cash flows attributable to changes in the interest rates and foreign exchange of foreign banks obligations and bonds issued abroad in US Dollars, Hong Kong dollars, Swiss Franc, Japanese Yens, Peruvian Sol, Australian Dollars, Euros and Norwegian kroner. The cash flows of the cross currency swaps equal the cash flows of the hedged items, which modify uncertain cash flows to known cash flows derived from a fixed interest rate.

 

Additionally, these cross currency swap contracts used to hedge the risk from variability of the Unidad de Fomento (“CLF”) in assets flows denominated in CLF until a nominal amount equal to the portion notional of the hedging instrument CLF, whose readjustment impact the item “Interest Revenue” of the Income Financial Statements.

(d)Earnings per share:

 

(i)Basic earnings per share:

 

Basic earnings per share are determined by dividing the net income attributable to the Bank ordinary equity holders in a period between the weighted average number of shares outstanding during that period, excluding the average number of own shares held throughout the period.

 

(ii)Diluted earnings per share:

 

In order to calculate the diluted earnings per share, both the amount of income attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding, net of own shares, must be adjusted for all the inherent dilutive effects to the potential common shares (stock options, warrants and convertible debt).

 

Accordingly, the basic and diluted earnings per share as of March 31, 2022 and 2021 were determined as follows:

 

   March   March 
   2022   2021 
Basic earnings per share:

44.Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities:

 

Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries have defined a corporate framework for valuation and control related with the process to the fair value measurement.

 

Within the established framework includes the Product Control Unit, which is independent of the business areas and reports to the Financial Management and Control Division Manager. This function befall to the Financial Control, Treasury and Capital Manager, through the Financial Risk Information and Control Section, is responsible for independent verification of price and results of trading (including derivatives) and investment operations and all fair value measurements.

 

To achieve the appropriate measurements and controls, the Bank and its subsidiaries, take into account at least the following aspects:

 

(i)Industry standard valuation.

 

To value financial instruments, Banco de Chile uses industry standard modeling; quota value, share price, discounted cash flows and valuation of options through Black-Scholes-Merton, according to the case. The input parameters for the valuation correspond to rates, prices and levels of volatility for different terms and market factors that are traded in the national and international market and that are provided by the main sources of the market.

 

(ii)Quoted prices in active markets.

 

The fair value for instruments with quoted prices in active markets is determined using daily quotes from electronic systems information (such as Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago, Bloomberg, LVA and Risk America, etc). This quote represents the price at which these instruments are regularly traded in the financial markets.

 

(iii)Valuation techniques.

 

If no specific quotes are available for the instrument to be valued, valuation techniques will be used to determine the fair value.

 

Due to, in general, the valuation models require a set of market parameters as inputs, the aim is to maximize information based on observable or price-related quotations for similar instruments in active markets. To the extent there is no information in direct from the markets, data from external suppliers of information, prices of similar instruments and historical information are used to validate the valuation parameters.

 

182

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, continued

44.Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

 

(iv)Fair value adjustments.

 

Part of the fair value process considers three adjustments to the market value, calculated based on the market parameters, including; a liquidity adjustment, a Bid/Offer adjustment and an adjustment is made for credit risk of derivatives (CVA and DVA). The calculation of the liquidity adjustment considers the size of the position in each factor, the particular liquidity of each factor, the relative size of Banco de Chile with respect to the market, and the liquidity observed in transactions recently carried out in the market. In turn, the Bid/Offer adjustment, represents the impact on the valuation of an instrument depending on whether the position corresponds to a long (bought) or a short (sold).To calculate this adjustment is used the direct quotes from active markets or indicative prices or derivatives of similar assets depending on the instrument, considering the Bid, Mid and Offer, respectively. Finally, the adjustment made for CVA and DVA for derivatives corresponds to the credit risk recognition of the issuer, either of the counterparty (CVA) or of Banco de Chile (DVA).

 

Liquidity value adjustments are made to trading instruments (including derivatives) only, while Bid / Offer adjustments are made for trading instruments and Financial instrument at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income. Adjustments for CVA / DVA are carried out only for derivatives.

 

(v)Fair value control.

 

A process of independent verification of prices and interest rates is executed daily, in order to control that the market parameters used by Banco de Chile in the valuation of the financial instruments relating to the current state of the market and from them the best estimate derived of the fair value. The objective of this process is to control that the official market parameters provided by the respective business areas, before being entered into the valuation, are within acceptable ranges of differences when compared to the same set of parameters prepared independently by the Financial Risk Information and Control Section. As a result, value differences are obtained at the level of currency, product and portfolio. In the event significant differences exist, these differences are scaled according to the amount of individual materiality of each market factor and aggregated at the portfolio level, according to the grouping levels within previously defined ranges. These ranges are approved by the Finance, International and Financial Risk Committee.

 

Complementary and in parallel, the Financial Risk Information and Control Section generates and reports on a daily basis Profit and Loss (“P&L”) and Exposure to Market Risks, which allow for proper control and consistency of the parameters used in the valuation.

44.Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

 

(vi)Judgmental analysis and information to Management.

 

In particular cases, where there are no market quotations for the instrument to be valued and there are no prices for similar transactions instruments or indicative parameters, a specific control and a reasoned analysis must be carried out in order to estimate the fair value of the operation. Within the valuation framework described in the Reasonable Value Policy (and its procedure) approved by the Board of Directors of Banco de Chile, a required level of approval is set in order to carry out transactions where market information is not available or it is not possible to infer prices or rates from it.

 

(a)Hierarchy of instrument valued at Fair value:

 

Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries, classify all the financial instruments among the following levels:

 

Level 1:These are financial instruments whose fair value is calculated at quoted prices (unadjusted) in extracted from liquid and deep markets. For these instruments there are quotes or prices (return internal rates, quote value, price) the observable market, so that assumptions are not required to determine the value .

 

In this level, the following instruments are considered: currency futures, debt instruments issued by the Treasury and the Central Bank of Chile, which belong to benchmarks, mutual fund investments and equity shares.

 

For the instruments of the Central Bank of Chile and the General Treasury of the Republic, all those mnemonics belonging to a Benchmark, in other words corresponding to one of the following categories published by the Santiago Stock Exchange, will be considered as Level 1: Pesos-02, Pesos-03, Pesos-04, Pesos-05, Pesos-07, Pesos-10, UF-02, UF-04, UF-05, UF-07, UF-10, UF-20, UF-30. A Benchmark corresponds to a group of mnemonics that are similar in duration and are traded in an equivalent way, i.e., the price (return internal rates in this case) obtained is the same for all the instruments that make up a Benchmark. This feature defines a greater depth of market, with daily quotations that allow classifying these instruments as Level 1.

 

In the case of debt issued by the Chilean Government, the internal rate of return of the market is used to discount all flows to present value. In the case of mutual funds and equity shares, the current market price per share, which multiplied by the number of instruments results in the fair value.

 

The preceding described valuation methodology is equivalent to the one used by the Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago (Santiago Stock Exchange) and correspond to the standard methodology used in the market.

44.Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

 

Level 2:They are financial instruments whose fair value is calculated based on prices other than in quoted in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, directly (that is, as prices or internal rates of return) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices or internal rates of return from similar instruments). These categories include:

 

a)Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

b)Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

c)Inputs data other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

 

d)Inputs data corroborated by the market.

 

At this level there are mainly derivatives instruments, debt issued by banks, debt issues of Chilean and foreign companies, issued in Chile or abroad, mortgage claims, financial brokerage instruments and some issuances by the Central Bank of Chile and the General Treasury of the Republic, which do not belong to benchmarks.

 

To value derivatives, depends on whether they are impacted by volatility as a relevant market factor in standard valuation methodologies; for options the Black-Scholes-Merton formula is used; for the rest of the derivatives, forwards and swaps, discounted cash flows method is used.

 

For the remaining instruments at this level, as for debt issues of level 1, the valuation is done through cash flows model by using an internal rate of return that can be derived or estimated from internal rates of return of similar securities as mentioned above.

 

In the event that there is no observable price for an instrument in a specific term, the price will be inferred from the interpolation between periods that have observable quoted price in active markets. These models incorporate various market variables, including the credit quality of counterparties, exchange rates and interest rate curves.

Level 3:These are financial instruments whose fair value is determined using non-observable inputs data neither for the assets or liabilities under analysis nor for similar instruments. An adjustment to an input that is significant to the entire measurement can result in a fair value measurement classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if the adjustment uses significant non-observable data entry.

 

The instruments likely to be classified as level 3 are mainly Corporate Debt by Chilean and foreign companies, issued both in Chile and abroad.

 

 

Valuation Techniques and Inputs for Level 3 Instrument:

 

Type of Financial Instrument   Valuation Method   Description: Inputs and Sources
Local Bank and Corporate Bonds   Discounted cash flows model   Since inputs for these types of securities are not observable by the market, we model interest rate of returns for them based on a Base Yield (Central Bank Bonds) and issuer spread. These inputs (base yield and issuer spread) are provided on a daily basis by third party price providers that are widely used in the Chilean market.
         
Offshore Bank and Corporate Bonds   Discounted cash flows model   Since inputs for these types of securities are not observable by the market, we model interest rate of returns for them based on a Base Yield (US-Libor) and issuer spread. These inputs (base yield and issuer spread) are provided on a weekly basis by third party price providers that are widely used in the Chilean market.

With the purpose of determining the sensitivity of the financial investments to changes in significant market factors, the Bank has made alternative calculations at fair value, changing those key parameters for the valuation and which are not directly observable in screens. In the case of the financial assets listed in the table above, which correspond to Bank Bonds and Corporate Bonds, it was considered that, since there are no current observables prices, the input prices will be based on brokers' quotes. The prices are usually calculated as a base rate plus a spread. For Local Bonds it was determined to apply a 10% impact on the price, while for the Off Shore Bonds it was determined to apply a 10% impact only on the spread, since the base rate is covered by interest rate swaps instruments in the so-called accounting hedges. The 10% impact is considered reasonable, taking into account the market performance of these instruments and comparing it against the bid / offer adjustment that is provisioned by these instruments.

44.Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

 

(e)Levels of other assets and liabilities, continued:

 

The Bank determines the fair value of these assets and liabilities according to the following:

 

Short-term assets and liabilities: For assets and liabilities with short-term maturity, it is assumed that the book values approximate to their fair value. This assumption is applied to the following assets and liabilities:

 

Assets:   Liabilities:
     
- Cash and deposits in banks   - Current accounts and other demand deposits
- Transactions in the course of collection   - Transactions in the course of payments
- Investment under resale agreements and securities loans   - Obligations under repurchase agreements and securities loans
- Loans and advance to domestic banks    

 

Loans to Customers and Advance to foreign banks: Fair value is determined by using the discounted cash flow model and internally generated discount rates, based on internal transfer rates derived from our internal transfer price process. Once the present value is determined, we deduct the related loan loss allowances in order to incorporate the credit risk associated with each contract or loan. As we use internally generated parameters for valuation purposes, we categorize these instruments in Level 3.

 

Debt financial instruments at amortized cost: The fair value is calculated with the methodology of the Stock Exchange, using the IRR observed in the market. Because the instruments that are in this category correspond to Treasury Bonds that are Benchmark, they are classified in Level 1.

 

Letters of Credit and Bonds: In order to determine the present value of contractual cash flows, we apply the discounted cash flow model by using market interest rates that are available in the market, either for the instruments under valuation or instruments with similar features that fit valuation needs in terms of currency, maturities and liquidity. The market interest rates are obtained from third party price providers widely used by the market. As a result of the valuation technique and the quality of inputs (observable) used for valuation, we categorize these financial liabilities in Level 2.

 

Saving Accounts, Time Deposits, Borrowings from Financial Institutions, Subordinated Bonds and Other borrowings financial: The discounted cash flow model is used to obtain the present value of committed cash flows by applying a bucket approach and average adjusted discount rates that derived from both market rates for instruments with similar features and our internal transfer price process. As we use internally generated parameters and/or apply significant judgmental analysis for valuation purposes, we categorize these financial liabilities in Level 3.

47.Risk Management and Report:

 

(1) Introduction:

 

Banco de Chile seeks to maintain a risk profile that ensures the sustainable growth of its activity and that is aligned with its strategic objectives, in order to maximize value creation and guarantee its long-term solvency.

 

Our risk management policies are established in order to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Bank, set appropriate risk limits, alerts and controls, monitor risks and compliance with limits and alerts in order to carry out the necessary action plans. Through its administration policies and procedures, the Bank develops a disciplined and constructive control environment. Policies as well as risk management standards, procedures and systems are regularly reviewed.

 

For this, the Bank has teams with extensive experience and knowledge in each area associated with risks, ensuring comprehensive and consolidated management of the same, including the Bank and its subsidiaries.

 

(a)Risk Management Structure

 

Credit, Market and Operational Risk Management are at the all levels of the Organization, with a Corporate Governance structure that recognizes the relevance of the different risk areas that exist.

 

The Board of Directors of Banco de Chile is responsible for establishing the policies, the risk appetite framework, the guidelines for the development, validation and monitoring of models. In like manner, it approves the provision models and pronounces annually on the sufficient provisions. For its part, the Administration is responsible both for the establishment of standards and associated procedures as well as for the control and compliance with the disposed by the Board of Directors.

 

The Bank's Corporate Governance considers the active participation of the Board, either directly or through different committees made up of Directors and Senior Management. It is permanently informed of the evolution of the different risk areas, participating through its Finance, International and Financial Risk, Credit, Portfolio Risk Committee and Higher Operational Risk Committee, in which the status of credit, market and operational risks are reviewed. These committees are described in the next paragraphs.

 

Risk Management is developed jointly by the Wholesale Credit Risk Division, the Retail Credit Risk and Global Risk Control Division and the Cybersecurity Division, which constitute the corporate risk governance structure, who, by having highly experienced and specialized teams, together with a robust regulatory framework, allow optimal and effective management of the matters they address.

(a)Risk Management Structure, continued:

 

The Wholesale Credit Risk Division and the Retail Credit Risk and Global Risk Control Division are responsible for credit risk in the admission, monitoring and recovery phases for the different business segments. Additionally, the Wholesale Credit Risk Division has the Market Risk Management that performs the function of measuring, limiting, controlling and reporting said risk together with the definition of valuation and management standards for the Bank's assets and liabilities.

 

In turn, in the Retail Credit Risk and Global Risk Control Division, the Admissions Area, among its functions, develops the regulatory framework in matters of credit risk, and the Risk Models Area, which develops the different methodologies related to credit risk. Likewise, in this Division, the monitoring and validation of models are carried out by the respective Areas that deal with these matters, ensuring the independence of the function and across the organization.

 

This Division also has the Operational Risk and Business Continuity Management, in charge of managing and supervising the application of the policies, rules and procedures in each of these areas within the Bank and Subsidiaries. For purposes, the Operational Risk Management is in charge of guaranteeing the identification and efficient management of operational risks and promoting a culture in terms of risks to prevent financial losses and improve the quality of our processes, as well as proposing continuous improvements to risk management, aligned with business objectives. In addition to the above, the Business Continuity Management aims to manage the strategy and control of business continuity in the operational and technological field for the Bank, maintaining alternative operation plans and controlled tests to reduce the impact of disruptive events that may affect the organization. Both in Operational Risk and in Business Continuity, its methodologies, controls and scope are applied at the Banco de Chile level and are replicated in the subsidiaries, guaranteeing their homologation to the Bank's global management model.

 

For its part, the Cybersecurity Division is responsible for defining, implementing and reporting the progress of the Strategic Cybersecurity Plan in line with the Bank's business strategy, one of its main focuses being to protect internal information, that of its customers and collaborators.

 

This Division is comprises by the Cybersecurity, Cyberdefense and Technological Risk Engineering Managements, as well as the Strategic Management and Assurance Deputy Managers. Numeral 4 of this Note describes the responsibilities of the indicated managers and Deputy Managers.

(c)Measurement Methodology

 

Regarding to Credit Risk, provision levels and portfolio expenses are the basic measures for determining the credit quality of our portfolio.

 

Banco de Chile permanently evaluates its loan portfolio, timely recognizing the associated level of risk of the loan portfolio. For this, there are specific guidelines for the development of provision models under local regulations in accordance with the instructions issued by the CMF, as well as under IFRS 9 and stress tests; these guidelines and the models developed are approved by the Board of Directors.

 

As a result of this evaluation, on both individual and group portfolios, the level of provisions that the bank should constitute is determined, in the event of customers payment default.

 

The individual evaluation mainly applies to the Bank's portfolio of legal persons that, due to their size, complexity or indebtedness, requires a more detailed level of knowledge and a case-by-case analysis. Each debtor is assigned one of the 16 risk categories defined by the CMF, in order to establish the provisions in a timely and appropriate manner. The review of the portfolio risk classifications is carried out permanently considering the financial situation, payment behavior and the environment of each client.

 

The group evaluation mainly applies to the portfolio of natural persons and smaller companies. These assessments are carried out monthly through statistical models that allow estimating the level of provisions necessary to cover the portfolio risk. The consistency analysis of the models is carried out through an independent validation of the unit that develops them and, subsequently, through the analysis of retrospective tests that allow to compare the real losses with the expected ones.

 

During the year 2021, the Bank maintained prudential adjustments to the provisioning models made in the previous year, in particular to its Probability of Default (PD) parameters, following a conservative and prospective approach in this regard. Also, in December 2021 a new update of the parameters of the internal models of provisions was carried out.

 

In order to validate the quality and robustness of the risk assessment processes, the Bank annually performs a test of the sufficiency of provisions for the total loan portfolio, thus verifying that the provisions established are sufficient to cover the losses that could derive from the credit operations granted. The result of this analysis is presented to the Board of Directors, who manifests itself on the sufficiency of the provisions in each fiscal year.

(1)Introduction, continued:

 

(c)Measurement Methodology, continued:

 

Banco de Chile has additional provisions with the objective of protecting itself from the risk of unpredictable economic fluctuations that may affect the macroeconomic environment or the situation of a specific economic sector. At least once a year, the amount of additional provisions to be constituted or released is annually proposed to the Portfolio Risk Committee and subsequently to the Board of Directors for approval.

 

In this context, during 2021 and 2022 the Bank has constituted additional provisions taking into account various prospective analyzes regarding the impacts derived from the pandemic, among them: effects of the measures adopted by local and global health authorities for its mitigation, expectations of deterioration of the cycle and local macroeconomic projections of variables such as unemployment and economic growth.

 

The monitoring and control of risks are carried out mainly based on limits established by the Board of Directors. These limits reflect the Bank's business and market strategy, as well as the level of risk that it is willing to accept, with additional emphasis on the selected industries.

 

The Bank develops its capital planning process in an integrated manner with its strategic planning, in line with the risks inherent to its activity, the economic and competitive environment, its business strategy, corporate values, as well as its governance, management and risk control. As part of the capital planning process and, in line with what is required by the regulator, it has incorporated the new calculations of Risk-Weighted Assets and stress tests in the dimensions of credit, market and operational risk, as well as the Comprehensive Measurement of financial and non-financial risks.

 

Along with the above, during 2021, the Bank updated its Risk Appetite Framework, through which it is possible to identify, evaluate, measure, mitigate and control proactively and in advance all relevant risks that could materialize in the normal course of their business. To this end, the Bank uses different management tools and defines an adequate structure of alerts and limits, which are part of said Framework, which allow it to constantly monitor the performance of different indicators and implement timely corrective actions, in the event that are required. The result of these activities is part of the annual self-assessment report of effective equity that is reported to the CMF.

(2)Credit Risk:

 

Credit risk considers the likelihood that the counterparty in the credit operation will not be able to fulfill its contractual obligation due to incapacity or financial insolvency, and this leads to a potential credit loss.

 

The Bank seeks an adequate risk-return relation and an appropriate balance of the risks assumed, through a permanent credit risk management considering the processes of admission, monitoring and recovery of the loans granted. Likewise, it continuously manages risk knowledge, from a comprehensive approach, in order to contribute to the business and anticipate threats that could damage the solvency, quality of the portfolio, permeating a unique risk culture towards the Corporation.

 

The foregoing has the permanent challenge of establishing a risk management framework for the different business segments served by the Bank, responding to regulatory requirements and commercial dynamism, being part of the digital transformation, and contributing from the perspective of risks to the various businesses addressed, through a vision of the portfolio that allows managing, resolving and controlling the business approval process efficiently and proactively.

 

In the business segments, the application of additional management processes is taken into consideration, to the extent required, for those financing requests that that will have a greater exposure to environmental and/or social risks.

 

In this respect, the Bank integrates the socio-environmental criteria in its evaluations for the granting of financing destined to the development of projects, whether national or regional and that can generate an impact of this type, where they are executed. For the financing of projects, they must have the corresponding permits, authorizations, patents and studies, according to the impact they generate. In addition, the Bank has specialized units for serving large clients, through which the financing of project development is concentrated, including those of Public Works concessions that contemplate the construction of infrastructure, mining, electrical, real estate developments that can generate an environmental impact.

 

Credit policies and processes materialize in the following management principles, which are addressed with a specialized approach according to the characteristics of the different markets and segments served, recognizing the singularities of each one of them:

 

1.Apply a rigorous evaluation in the admission process, based on established credit policies, standards and procedures, together with the availability of sufficient and accurate information. Thus, it corresponds to analyze the generation of flows and solvency of the client to meet their payment commitments and, when the characteristics of the operation merit it, must constitute adequate collateral that allow mitigating the risk incurred with the client.

 

2.Have permanent and robust portfolio tracking processes, through systems that alert both the potential signs of impairment of clients, with respect to the conditions of origin. That they also alert possible business opportunities with those that present a better payments quality and behavior.

3.To develop credit risk modeling guidelines, both in regulatory aspects (provisions, capital, stress tests) and management (admission, management, collection), for efficient decision-making at different stages of the credit process.

 

4.Have a collection structure with timely, agile and effective processes that allow management to be carried out in accordance with the different types of clients and the types of breaches that arise, always in strict adherence to the regulatory framework and the Bank's reputational definitions.

 

5.Maintain an efficient administration in work teams organization, tools and availability of information that allow an optimal credit risk management.

 

Based on these management principles, the credit risk divisions contribute to the business and anticipate threats that may affect the solvency and quality of the portfolio. In particular, during the years 2021 and 2022 the solidity of these principles and the role of credit risk have made it possible to respond adequately to the challenges derived from the pandemic, providing timely responses to clients while maintaining the solid fundamentals that characterize the Bank's portfolio in its different segments and products.

 

Within the framework of risk management, during 2022, a permanent and focused monitoring of the portfolios and the results of the temporary measures implemented in the context of the pandemic, such as rescheduling, Fogape Covid, Fogape Reactivation and deferment of mortgage loan payments.

 

For the development and strengthening of a risk culture in the Bank, during 2021 the training and education of executives was promoted, diffusing risk knowledge from a comprehensive perspective. It is with this in matters of environmental and social risks, training has been carried out for commercial and risk company executives to further ensure that these factors and their impacts are taken into account in the credit analysis and evaluation processes. Specifically, employees from various areas were trained in the Socio-environmental Risk Analysis course taught by the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI).

(a)Retail Segments:

 

In these segments, admission management is carried out mainly through a risk evaluation that uses scoring tools and an adequate credit attribution model to approve each operation. These evaluations take into consideration the level of indebtedness, payment capacity and the maximum acceptable exposure for the client.

 

For these segments, the Bank's risk functions are segregated and distributed in the following areas:

 

Retail Admission and Regulatory Area, performs the evaluation of operations and clients, with specialization by products and segments. Maintains a framework of policies and standards that ensure the quality of the portfolio according to the desired risk, defining guidelines for the admission of clients and their respective parameterization in the evaluation systems. These definitions are released to commercial and risk areas through programs and continuous training, and their application is monitored through credit review processes.

 

Model Area, is responsible for developing, maintaining and updating credit risk models, whether for regulatory or management uses, in accordance with local and international regulations, determining the most appropriate functional specifications and statistical techniques for the development of the required models. These models are validated by the Model Validation Area and presented to the corresponding government bodies, such as the "Technical Committee for the Supervision and Development of Internal Models", the Portfolio Risk Committee or the Board of Directors, as appropriate.

 

Retail Tracking and Models Area, is in charge of measuring the behavior of portfolios especially through the monitoring of the main indicators of the aggregate portfolio and the analysis of layers, reported in management reports, generating relevant information for decision-making in different instances defined. Also, special follow-ups are generated according to relevant events in the environment.

 

This Area also ensures that the different strategies executed meet the risk quality objectives that determined their implementation. Additionally, through the model monitoring function, they monitor the risk models, ensuring compliance with the defined standards to ensure their predictive and discriminating power, identifying the possible associated risks.

 

Models Validation Area, is responsible for performs an independent review of the credit and treasury risk models, both in the construction and implementation stages. It considers the validation of compliance with the guidelines established by the Board of Directors, addressing aspects such as governance, data quality, modeling and implementation techniques, and documentation. The results of the review are presented and placed in consideration of the respective Committees, as appropriate.

(a)Retail Segments, continued:

 

Collection Area performs a cross-collection management in the Bank and centralizes recovery management in retail segments through Socofin, Bank's subsidiary. Define refinancing criteria and payment agreements with customers, maintaining an adequate risk-return ratio, together with the incorporation of robust tools for a differentiated collection management according to the institutional policies.

 

(b)Wholesale Segments:

 

In these segments, admission management is carried out through an individual evaluation of the client and the relationship of the rest of the group with the Bank is also considered if it belongs to a group of companies. This individual evaluation - and group if applicable - considers, among others, generation capacity, financial capacity with emphasis on equity solvency, exposure levels, industry variables, evaluation of partners and management, and aspects of the operation such as financing structure, term, products and possible collaterals.

 

The indicated evaluation is supported by a rating model that allows greater homogeneity in the evaluation of the client and his group. This evaluation also includes specialized areas in some segments that by their nature require expert knowledge, such as real estate, construction, agriculture, financial, international, among others.

 

In a centralized manner, a permanent monitoring of the portfolio is carried at the individual level off business segments and economic sectors, based on periodically updated information from both the client and the industry. Through this process, alerts are generated that ensure the correct and timely recognition of the risk of the individual portfolio and the special conditions established in the admission stage are monitored, such as controls of financial covenants, coverage of certain collaterals and conditions imposed at the time of approval.

 

Additionally, within the Admission areas, joint monitoring tasks are carried out that allow monitoring the development of operations from their gestation to their recovery, with the aim of ensuring the correct and timely identification of portfolio risks, and to manage in advance those cases with higher risk levels.

 

Upon detection of clients that show signs of impairment or default with any condition, the commercial area to which the client belongs, together with the Wholesale Credit Risk Division, establish action plans for their regularization. In those more complex cases where specialized management is required, the Special Assets Management area, belonging to the Wholesale Credit Risk Division, is directly in charge of collection management, establishing action plans and negotiations based on the particular characteristics of each client.

The value guarantees related to past due loans but no impaired as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2021 amounted Ch$221,128 million and Ch$177,169 million respectively.

 

(e)Credit Quality by Asset Class:

 

The Bank determines the credit quality of financial assets using internal credit ratings. The rating process is linked to the Bank’s approval and monitoring processes and is carried out in accordance with risk categories established by current standards. Credit quality is continuously updated based on any favorable or unfavorable developments to customers or their environments, considering aspects such as commercial and payment behavior as well as financial information.

 

The Bank also carries out reviews focused on companies that participate in specific economic sectors, which are affected either by macroeconomic variables or variables of the sector. In this way, it is possible to timely establish the necessary and sufficient level of provisions to cover the losses due to the eventual non-recoverability of the credits granted.

 

The following tables shows credit quality by asset class for Consolidated Statements of Financial Position sheet items, based on the Bank’s credit rating system.

(3)Market Risk:

 

Market Risk refers to the loss that the Bank could face due to a liquidity shortage to honor the payments, or to close financial transactions in a timely manner (Liquidity Risk), or due to adverse movements in the values of market variables (Risk Price). For its correct management, the guidelines of the Liquidity Risk Management Policy and the Market Risk Management Policy are considered, both are subject to review, at least annually, by the Market Risk Manager and approval by the Bank’s Board of Directors, at least annually.

 

(a)Liquidity Risk:

 

Liquidity Risk Measurement and Limits

 

The Bank manages the Liquidity Risk in accordance with the established on the Liquidity Risk Management Policy, managing separately for each sub-category thereof; this is for Trading Liquidity Risk and Funding Liquidity Risk.

 

Trading Liquidity Risk is the inability to close, at current market prices, the financial positions opened mainly from the Trading Book (which is daily valued at market prices and the value differences instantly reflected in the Income Statement). This risk is controlled by establishing limits on the positions amounts of the Trading Book in accordance with what is estimated to be closed in a short time period. Additionally, the Bank incorporates a negative impact on the Income Statement whenever it considers that the size of a certain position in the Trading Book exceeds the reasonable amount, negotiated in the secondary markets, which would allow the exposure to be offset without altering market prices.

 

Funding Liquidity Risk refers to the Bank’s inability to obtain sufficient cash to meet its immediate obligations. This risk is managed by a minimum amount of highly liquid assets called liquidity buffer, and establishing limits and controls of internal metrics, among which the Market Access Report (“MAR”) stands out, which estimates the amount of funding that the Bank would need from wholesale financial counterparties, for the next 30 and 90 days in each of the relevant currencies of the balance sheet, to face a cash need as a result of the operation under business as usual conditions.

Minimum   -964    2,240    -896    27 
Average   -80    2,734    -403    586 

 

The Bank also monitors the amount of assets denominated in local currency that is funded by liabilities denominated in foreign currency, including all tenors and the cash flows generated by full delivery derivatives payments. This metric is referred to as Cross Currency Funding. The bank oversees and limits this amount in order to take precautions against not only Banco de Chile’s event but also against a systemic adverse environment generated by a country risk event that might trigger lack of foreign currency funding.

 

The use of Cross Currency Funding within the year 2022 is illustrated below:

 

  

Cross Currency
Funding

MMUS$

 
     
Maximum   3,378 
Minimum   2,254 
Average   2,696 

 

The Bank establishes thresholds that alert behaviors outside the expected ranges at a normal or prudent level of operation, in order to protect other dimensions of liquidity risk such as, for example, maturities concentration of fund providers, the diversification of sources of funds either by type of counterparty or type of product, among others.

 

The evolution over time of the statement of financial ratios of the Bank is monitored in order to detect structural changes in the characteristics of the balance sheet, such as those presented in the following table and whose relevant values of use during the year 2022 are shown below:

Additionally, some market index, prices and monetary decisions taken by the Central Bank of Chile are monitored to detect structural changes in market conditions that can trigger a liquidity shortage or even a financial crisis.

 

Furthermore, the Liquidity Risk Management Policy enforces to perform stress tests periodically which are controlled against potentially accessible action plans in each modeled scenario, according with the guidelines established in the Liquidity Contingency Plan. This process is essential in determining the liquidity risk appetite framework of the institution.

 

The Bank measures and controls the mismatch of cash flows under regulatory standards with the C46 index report, which represents the net cash flows expected over time as a result of the contractual maturity of almost all assets and liabilities. Additionally, the Commission for the Financial Market (hereinafter, “CMF”) authorized Banco de Chile, among others, to report the adjusted C46 index. This allows the Bank to report, in addition to the regular C46 index, outflow behavior assumptions of certain specific elements of the liability, such as demand deposits and time deposits. In addition, the regulator also requires some rollover assumptions for the loan portfolio.

 

The CMF establish the following limits for the C46:

 

Foreign Currency balance sheet items: 1-30 days C46 index < 1 x Tier-1 Capital
All Currencies balance sheet items: 1-30 days C46 index < 1 x Tier-1 Capital
All Currencies balance sheet items: 1-90 days C46 index < 2 x Tier-1 Capital

 

The use of this index in the period 2022 is illustrated below:

Price Risk Measurement and Limits

 

The Price Risk measurement and management processes are carried out in accordance with the established on the Market Risk Management Policy, by using internal metrics developed by the Bank, both for the Trading Book and for the Accrual Book (the Accrual Book includes all balance sheet items, including those in the Trading Book but in such case these are reported at an interest rate adjustment term of one day, thus not generating accrual interest rate risk) , in addition, the Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (hereinafter FVOCI) portfolio is considered, which is a sub-set of the Accrual Book, which given its nature is relevant to measure it independently. In addition, the Bank reports metrics to regulatory entities according to the models defined by them.

 

The Bank has established internal limits for the exposures of the Trading Book. In fact, FX positions (FX delta), interest rate sensitivities generated by the derivatives and debt securities portfolios (DV01 or also referred as to rho) and the FX options volatility sensitivity (vega) are measured, reported and controlled against their limits. Limits are established on an aggregate basis but also for some specific tenor points. The use of these limits is daily monitored, controlled and reported by independent control functions to the senior management of the bank. The internal governance framework also establishes that these limits must be approved by the board and reviewed at least annually.

 

The Bank measures and controls the risk for the Trading Book portfolios using the Value-at-Risk (VaR). The model uses a 99% confidence level and the most recent one-year observed rates, prices and yields data.

 

The use of VaR within the year 2022 is illustrated below:

Maximum   1,451 
Minimum   640 
Average   1,018 

 

Additionally, the Bank performs measuring, limiting, controlling and reporting interest rate exposures and risks for the Accrual Book using internally developed methodologies based on the differences in the amounts of assets and liabilities considering the interest rate repricing dates. Exposures are measured according to the Interest Rate Exposure or IRE metric and their corresponding risks using the Earnings-at-Risk or EaR metric. Within these metrics, Prepayment Risk is considered, which corresponds to the customer’s ability to pay, totally or partially, their debt before maturity. For this, a loan flow allocation model is generated with exposure to interest rate fluctuations, according to their prepayment behavior, finally reflecting a decrease in the average maturity of the loans, which allows determining the possible impacts on the Bank’s Balance Sheet.

The regulatory risk measurement for the Trading Book (APRM report, from the spanish Activos Ponderados por Riesgo Mercado) is produced by utilizing guidelines provided by the Central Bank of Chile (hereinafter, “BCCh”) and the CMF, which are adopted based on standardized BIS methodologies. The referred methodologies estimate the potential loss that the bank may incur considering standardized fluctuations of the value of market factors such as FX rates, interest rates and volatilities that may adversely impact the value of FX spot positions, interest rate exposures, and volatility exposures, respectively. In addition, correlation factors are included to represent non-parallel changes in the yield curve.

 

The risk measurement for the Banking Book, according to regulatory guidelines (C40 report), as a result of interest rate fluctuations is carried out through the use of standardized methodologies provided by regulatory entities (BCCh and CMF). The report includes models for reporting interest rate gaps and standardized adverse interest rate fluctuations. In addition to this, the regulatory entity has requested banks to establish internal limits, separately for short-term and long-term balances, for these regulatory measurements.

 

The results effectively realized during the month for trading activities are controlled against defined loss levels and if these levels are exceeded, senior management is notified in order to evaluate potential corrective actions.

 

In addition to the above, the Market Risk Policy of Banco de Chile enforces to perform daily stress tests for the Trading Book and monthly for the Accrual Book, additionally a stress test for the FVOCI portfolio is included, which is reported daily. The output of the stress testing process is monitored against corresponding trigger levels: in the case those triggers are breached, the senior management is notified in order to implement further actions, if necessary. In addition, the results during the month for the trading activities are controlled against defined loss levels and in case such levels are exceeded, senior management is also notified.

Price Risk Sensitivity Analysis

 

The Bank uses stress tests as the main sensitivity analysis tool for Price Risk. The analysis is implemented for the Trading Book, Accrual Book and the FVOCI portfolio separately. The Bank has adopted this tool as it is considered more useful than fluctuations in business as usual scenario, such as VaR or EaR, given that:

 

(i)The financial crisis show market factors fluctuations that are materially larger than those used in the VaR with 99% of confidence level or EaR with 99% of confidence level.

 

(ii)The financial crisis also show that correlations between these fluctuations are materially different from those used in the VaR computation, since a crisis precisely indicates severe disconnections between the behaviors of market factors fluctuations respect to the patterns observed under normal conditions.

 

(iii)Trading liquidity dramatically diminishes during financial distress and especially in emerging markets. Therefore, the overnight VaR number might not be representative of the loss for trading portfolios in such environment since closing exposures period may exceed one business day. This may also happen when calculating EaR, even considering three months as the closing period.

 

The impacts are determined by mathematical simulations of fluctuations in the values of market factors, and also, estimating the changes of the economic and /or accounting value of the financial positions.

In order to comply with IFRS 7.40, the following exercise was included illustrating an estimation of the impact of extreme but reasonable fluctuations of interest rates, swaps yields, FX rates and exchange volatility, which are used for valuing Trading Book, Accrual Book and the FVOCI portfolio. Given that the Bank’s portfolio includes positions denominated in nominal and real interest rates, these fluctuations must be aligned with extreme but realistic Chilean inflation changes forecasts.

 

The exercise is implemented by multiplying the sensitivities by the fluctuations obtained as the results of mathematical simulations over a two-week time horizon and using the maximum historical volatility, within a significant period of time, in each of the market factor present in the Trading Book, in the case of the FVOCI portfolio a four-week time horizon is used due to liquidity constrains; Accrual Book impacts are estimated by multiplying cumulative gaps by forward interest rates fluctuations modeled over a three-month time horizon and using the maximum historical volatility of interest fluctuations but limited by maximum fluctuations and / or levels observed within a significant period of time. It is relevant to note that the methodology might ignore some portion of the interest rates convexity, since it is not captured properly when large fluctuations are modeled. In any case, given the magnitude of the changes, the methodology may be reasonable enough for the purposes and scope of the analysis.

 

The following table illustrates the fluctuations resulting from the main market factors in the maximum stress test exercise, or more adverse, for the Trading Book.

 

The directions or signs of these fluctuations are those that correspond to those that generate the most adverse impact at the aggregate level.

The worst impact on the Bank’s Trading Book as of March 31, 2022, as a result of the simulation process described above, is as follows:

The modeled scenario would generate losses in the Trading Book for approximately Ch$6,542 million. In any case, such fluctuations would not result in material losses compared to Basic Capital or to the P&L estimate for the next 12-months.

 

The impact on the Accrual Book as of March 31, 2022, which does not necessarily mean a net loss(gain) but a greater(lower) net income from funds generation (resulting net interest rate generation), is illustrated below:

The modeled scenario would generate losses in the FVOCI portfolio for approximately Ch$175,395 million.

 

The main negative impact on the Trading Book would occur as a result of an increase in interest rates, especially CLF Derivatives rates, in the case of the FVOCI portfolio, the main impact would be due to Debt Instruments. For its part, the lowest potential income in the next 12 months in the Accrual Book would occur in a scenario of a sharp decline in inflation and nominal rates. Although the impacts would be greater than the Bank’s budgeted annual profits, the probability of occurrence given market conditions is very low.

(4)Other Information related to Financial Risks:

 

a)Libor transition project:

 

As a consequence of the decisions made by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) of the United Kingdom and the recommendations of the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (ARRC) made up of the Federal Reserve Board and the New York FED, since 12-31-2021 Libor rates in currencies other than US$ are no longer published, as of 06-30-2023 Libor in US$ is no longer published and as of 01-01-2022 new Libor-based operations are no longer processed. Only US$ Libor may be used in contracts in force as of 12-31-2021 and until the last date of publication of this.

 

Because of this, since 2020, we have been working on enabling and implementing, in its different dimensions, the new risk-free reference rates (“RFR”) for carrying out operations in foreign currency as of 01-01-2022.

 

To this end, work has been done in coordination with the different areas of the Bank involved, which include Treasury, Prosecution, Operations, IT, Business Development for SMEs and Companies, Studies and Planning, Accounting, Foreign Trade, Market Risk and the International Area.

The process has been structured in 5 phases:

 

1st phase

 

-Identification of the risks associated with the Libor transition process through the collection of information regarding the number of operations, amounts involved, remaining terms, types of products and course coins.

 

-Periodic exchange of information with the main global banks regarding the RFRs that were being defined as a replacement for Libor rates.

 

-Review of the documents published by the ARRC with its recommendations.

 

2nd phase

 

-Preparation and presentation to the CMF in 2021 of the situational analysis of Banco de Chile regarding the end of Libor. This included reporting on the information research carried out in the 1st stage and the impact that the end of the libor rate had both at the level of Products and at the level of Bank Areas.

 

3rd phase

 

-Definition of the new RFRs to be used in the different currencies (daily SOFR, term SOFR, TONAR, SONIA, etc.)

 

-Implementation of the RFR in the Bank’s systems

 

4th phase

 

-Carrying out tests of course of financial operations to review the correct accrual of the new RFR.

 

-Preparation of documentation with the RFR.

b)Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities:

 

The Bank trades financial derivatives with foreign counterparties using ISDA Master Agreement (International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.), under legal jurisdiction of the City of New York – USA or London – United Kingdom. Legal framework in these jurisdictions, along with documentation mentioned, it allows Banco de Chile the right to anticipate the maturity of the transaction and then, offset the net value of those transactions in case of default of counterparty. Additionally, the Bank has negotiated with these counterparties an additional annex (CSA Credit Support Annex), that includes other credit mitigating, such as entering margins on a certain amount of net value of transactions, early termination (optional or mandatory) of transactions at certain dates in the future, coupon adjustment of transaction in exchange for payment of the debtor counterpart over a certain threshold amount, etc.

(5)Operational risk:

 

One of the Bank’s objectives is to monitor, control and maintain at adequate levels, the risk of losses resulting from a lack of adequacy or a failure of processes, personnel and/or internal systems, or due to external events. This definition includes legal risk and excludes strategic and reputational risk.

 

Operational risk is inherent in all activities, products and systems, and cuts across the entire organization in its strategic, business and support processes. It is the responsibility of all the Bank’s collaborators to manage and control the risks generated within their scope of action, since their materialization may lead to direct or indirect financial losses.

 

To face this risk, the Bank has defined a Regulatory Framework and a governance structure according to the volume and complexity of its activities. The Retail Credit Risk and Global Risk Control Division administer the management of this risk, through the establishment of an Operational Risk Management. Likewise, the “Superior Committee for Operational Risk” and the “Committee for Operational Risk” supervise it.

 

The Operational Risk Policy defines a comprehensive management framework that considers the identification, evaluation, control, mitigation, monitoring and reporting of these risks. This comprehensive management considers the execution of a series of structured activities in the following fields of action:

 

Process Evaluation: Its objective is to identify, evaluate and monitor the risks and controls associated with the Bank’s processes, together with analyzing and determining the acceptable risk levels and mitigation actions to be applied in the event of deviation from these levels, allowing the maintenance of an adequate control environment over the operational risks.

 

Management of Events and Operational Losses: consists of identifying, analyzing, controlling and reporting the operational losses generated by the different areas, maintaining a consolidated base that allows comprehensive management of the different areas of Operational Risk. On the other hand, those significant Operational Risk events, whether or not they constitute losses, are analyzed, controlled and reported to the defined government instances, with the aim of preventing their recurrence, ensuring the correct execution of the processes and promoting measures mitigants that ensure an adequate control environment.

 

Fraud Management: this field considers the permanent analysis of information (both internal and external), in order to identify sources of risk and analyze their different behaviors, which allows defining and promoting various mitigation actions, seeking to improve security for our clients and reduce the economic losses associated with this concept. To ensure adequate mitigation of these risks, the Bank has established a fraud management and prevention model, which includes: a governance structure, roles and responsibilities of the different areas involved and a definition of the processes that are part of the management of these risks.

(5)Operational risk, continued:

 

Operational risk assessment for projects: the Bank is constantly working on the development of projects, including from the creation of new products and services, large technological implementations to operational changes in its processes. The implementation of these projects may lead to the appearance of new risks that must be correctly mitigated prior to their implementation, through the design of robust controls. For this, there is a methodological framework and specific tools that allow carrying out an evaluation of the different risks and controls, establishing a general level of exposure to operational risk, and determining mitigation actions in cases where it is necessary.

 

Supplier management: its objective is to identify, manage and monitor the risks that may arise from the outsourcing of services. For this, the Bank has a governance framework, a regulatory framework and a supplier management model that considers an analysis of the criticality and risk associated with the contracted services and an evaluation and monitoring scheme with a special focus on those considered relevant or critical to the entity.

 

Operational risk culture: with the aim of building a solid culture of operational risk management throughout the corporation and promoting the importance and responsibility of each of the employees in this area, the Bank has established an annual training process and dissemination that considers the different areas of Operational Risk management.

 

Internal Control: Through the evaluation of the design and operational effectiveness of the internal control environment, the aim is to ensure the reliability and transparency of the financial information generated by the Bank. For this, a periodic evaluation process is carried out, based on the materiality of the risks in relation to their impact on the financial statements. The evaluation of the design of the controls allows to identify if the associated risks are covered by adequate controls. On the other hand, the evaluation of operational effectiveness, which considers the testing of controls, makes it possible to verify that they are correctly executed.

 

Risk appetite: considers the periodic control and monitoring of the level of risk appetite for Operational Risk, based on the defined metrics and thresholds.

 

The combination of all the areas previously indicated, together with the regulatory framework and the corresponding governance structure, constitute the comprehensive management of Operational Risk. This management focuses on the identification of the root cause of the risks to prevent their occurrence and the mitigation of their possible consequences.

 

Each of the areas can give rise to the definition of action plans or indicators that allow adequate monitoring of each risk.

48.Information on Regulatory Capital and Capital Adequacy Ratios:

 

Requirements and Capital Management:

 

The main objectives of the Bank’s capital management are to ensure the adequacy and quality of its capital, at a consolidated level, based on managing the risks it faces in its operations, establishing sufficient capital levels, through the definition of an internal objective, which supports both the business strategy and stress scenarios in the short and medium terms, thus ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, a solid credit rating and adequate capital clearances. During 2021, the Bank has comfortably met the required capital requirements.

 

As part of its Capital Management Policy, the Bank has established capital adequacy alerts and limits, which are monitored by the governance structures that the Bank has established for these purposes, including the Capital Management Committee. During 2021, none of the internal alerts defined by the Bank were activated as part of the Capital Risk Appetite Framework.

 

The Bank manages capital based on its strategic objectives, its risk profile and its ability to generate cash flows, as well as the economic and business context in which it operates. Consequently, the Bank may modify the amount of payment of dividends to its shareholders or issue basic capital, additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital instruments. The adequacy of the Bank’s capital is monitored using, among other measures, the indices and rules established by the CMF, as well as the alerts and internal limits that the Capital Management Committee and board of directors have defined for such purposes.

 

Capital Requirements

 

In accordance with the General Banking Law, the effective equity of a bank may not be less than 8% of its risk-weighted assets (RWA), net of required provisions. Additionally, it establishes that the Basic Capital may not be less than 4.5% of its APR or 3% of its total assets. Regarding Tier 1 capital, corresponding to the sum of Basic Capital, bonds with no maturity date and preferred shares, it is established that it may not be less than 6% of their RWAs, net of required provisions. Likewise, banking entities must comply, as established by current regulations or regulators, with capital buffers, such as the conservation buffer, the systemically important buffer, the countercyclical buffer and/or capital charges by pillar 2.

 

Adoption of the Basel III standard

 

In 2019, the CMF began the regulatory process for the implementation of Basel III standards in Chile, as established in Law No. 21,130 that modernizes banking legislation. During the years 2020 and 2021, the CMF promulgated the different regulations for the adequacy of the Basel III standard for local banking, which are applicable as of December 1, 2021. The regulation includes the standard methodologies to determine, among others, Credit, Operational and Market Risk-Weighted Assets, regulatory capital, leverage ratio and systemically important banks. Additionally, the regulations describe requirements and conditions applicable to: (i) the application of internal models for the calculation of certain risk-weighted assets, (ii) the issuance of hybrid capital instruments, (iii) market disclosure requirements (Pillar 3), (iv) the principles for determining capital buffers (countercyclical and conservation), (v) additional requirements to which banks defined as systemically important and (vi) the criteria to determine additional capital requirements for banks with deficiencies identified in the supervision process (Pillar 2), among others.

The aforementioned Basel III banking solvency standards consider a series of transitory regulations. These measures include: i) the gradual adoption of the conservation buffer and requirements for systemic banks, ii) the gradual application of adjustments to regulatory capital, iii) the temporary substitution of additional tier 1 capital (AT1) for tier 2 capital instruments, that is, subordinated bonds and additional provisions and iv) gradualness to continue recognizing subordinated bonds issued by banking subsidiaries as effective equity.
