Re.: MATERIAL EVENT

 

Dear Sirs:

 

We hereby notify you as a Material Event that today, May 7, 2019, Credicorp Ltd. transferred, through the Bolsa de Valores de Lima, 83,839,991 shares of Banco de Credito del Peru ("BCP") representing 0.9559% of BCP’s share capital, which have been acquired by its subsidiary Grupo Credito S.A. (“Grupo Credito”). The amount paid per share was S/ 6.10.

 

With this transfer the share reorganization process approved by the Peruvian Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y AFP ("SBS") through Resolution SBS N.° 1718-2018, which authorized Grupo Credito to acquire up to 3.73% of the capital stock of BCP, is completed.

 

It should be noted that this transfer does not entail any change in the control of BCP, since Credicorp, through its subsidiary Grupo Credito, continues to hold the ownership of 97.69% of BCP's shares.

 

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.

 

Sincerely,
