Dear Sirs:

 

In accordance with Peruvian Regulations for Material Events and Restricted Information approved by SMV Resolution N° 005-2014-SMV-01, and with Form 6-K submitted on December 30, 2015, Credicorp Ltd. complies with notifying you as a Material Event that Banco de Crédito del Perú (“BCP”) sold its shares of Banco de Crédito de Bolivia (“BCB”) to Inversiones Credicorp Bolivia S.A. (“ICBSA”), an indirect subsidiary of Credicorp Ltd. The latter took place in Bolivian Stock Exchange as part of the rearrangement of Credicorp’s organizational structure in Bolivia to efficiently manage its investments in that country and to comply with applicable Bolivian rules and regulations.

 

This transaction was executed today, May 12, 2016, in the Bolivian Stock Exchange. A total of 43,237 shares were sold at a price of Bs.25,811.00 per share, which account for Bs.1,115,990,207.00 of revenue, equivalent to US$162,680,788.19.

 

The aforementioned transfer is subject to approval by the Bolivian Financial System Supervisory Authority (ASFI).

 

In order to finance the acquisition by ICBSA, Grupo Crédito S.A. -shareholder of this company and subsidiary of Credicorp Ltd.- made a capital contribution in Bolivianos to ICBSA, which was equivalent to US$163 million.

 

As a result of the above, Credicorp’s new organizational structure in Bolivia is as follows:

 

 

The information in this Form 6-K (including any exhibit hereto) shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
