Re.:
MATERIAL EVENT
Dear
Sirs:
In
accordance with CONASEV Resolution for Material Events and Reserved Information
and Other Communications number 107-2002-EF/94.10.0, Credicorp Ltd. (Credicorp)
complies with notifying you of the following Material Event.
Credicorp’s
Board of Directors has agreed to transfer 2,170,575,309 shares of Banco de
Crédito del Perú (BCP) to Credicorp’s wholly owned subsidiary Grupo Crédito S.A.
(Grupo de Crédito) through a capital contribution and over-the-counter
transaction. The number of shares to be transferred represents 84.9% of the
total number of shares of BCP. Credicorp will maintain the remaining 325,612,451
shares that it owns, which represent an additional 12.7% of BCP’s total
shares.
This
transfer implies no change of control in BCP because Credicorp, in conjunction
with its subsidiary Grupo Crédito, will continue to control the same 97.6% of
the total shares of BCP. The transaction aims to facilitate the management of
future Credicorp’s investments in Perú and has been approved by the
Superintendence of Banking, Insurance and Private Pension Fund Administrators of
Perú.
Sincerely,
|
/s/
