CREDICORP Ltd.

 

Lima, Peru, November 7th, 2019 – Credicorp (NYSE: BAP) announced its unaudited results for the third quarter of 2019. These results are consolidated according to IFRS in Soles.

 

Third Quarter Results 2019

 

In 3Q19, Credicorp reported net income of S/ 1,093.0 million, which translated into an ROAE and ROAA of 17.1% and 2.4%, respectively. This result represented a decline of -0.5% and growth of +8.1% and +8.8% in net income QoQ, YoY and at year-to-date respectively.

 

The QoQ evolution registered an increase in net interest income (NII), in line with an uptick in loan growth. The aforementioned was offset by an increase in the expense for provisions for loan losses, mainly at BCP Stand-alone, and by growth in operating expenses.

 

The increase in net income YoY and at the year-to-date level was mainly attributable to growth in net interest income (NII) and to an increase in non-financial income, which was driven by an increase in the net gain on sales of securities. This was partially offset by an increase in the expense for provisions for loan losses and by growth in operating expenses.

 

The results in 3Q19 reveal:

 

• QoQ expansion of average daily loan balances in all segments, which was primarily attributable to loan growth in Retail Banking. In the YoY analysis, which eliminates the seasonal effect, total loans measured in average daily balances grew 7.0%, which represented an improvement over last quarter’s figure. Growth was led by Retail Banking through the Mortgage, Credit Card and Consumer segments. Additionally, portfolio growth was mainly in local currency.

 

• NII expanded +0.9% QoQ and +6.5% YoY in line with loan growth, which offset higher interest expenses on bonds and subordinated notes that was related to the liability management in BCP Stand-alone that affected both local as well as foreign currency. This extended maturities and reduced rates on both issuances. Additionally, related with better-than-expected demand, BCP raise new money from this transaction in both currencies. At the year-to-date level, the evolution was similar: NII expanded +7.7% due to growth in total loans, which registered growth primarily in higher-margin segments within BCP Stand-alone and in local currency. However, because interest earning assets grew at a higher pace than NII, the net interest margin (NIM) fell -8 bps QoQ and -13 pbs YoY. YTD, NIM increased +6 bps.

 

• Provisions for loan losses net of recoveries registered growth of 12.2%, 14.4% and 18.7% QoQ, YoY and in YTD terms respectively. In this scenario, the cost of risk (CofR) increased +15 bps QoQ, +12 bps YoY and +16 bps in YTD terms, which was primarily due to an increase in the CofR at BCP Stand-alone after the provisions requirement for the Retail Banking portfolio rose.

 

• In this context, risk-adjusted NIM fell -18 bps QoQ, -18 bps YoY and -5 bps at the YTD, in line with growth in the CofR.

 

• Non-financial income expanded +6.6% QoQ. This growth was primarily attributable to an increase in the net gain on sales of securities due to favorable evolution at BCP Stand-alone and, to a lesser extent, to growth in fee income. It is important to note that the pace of growth of fee income has slowed throughout the years due to regulatory changes that affect the fees charged to retail clients; more competition in the market; and the current transactional strategy to encourage clients to migrate to digital channels.

 

• The insurance underwriting result reported an increase of +6.0% QoQ, 3.7% YoY and +1.0% at the YTD level, which was primarily attributable to an increase in net earned premiums for life insurance and property and casualty insurance.

 

• The efficiency ratio increased +10 bps QoQ, in line with a seasonal increase in operating expenses given that expenses tend to be higher in the second half of the year. The efficiency ratio fell -40 bps both YoY and at the YTD level, in line with growth in net interest income (NII), which offset the increase in salaries and employee benefits.

1.Interest-earning assets (IEA)

 

At the end of September 2019, the IEAs registered growth of +2.8% QoQ. This was primarily attributable to an increase in loans and available funds. The YoY evolution, which eliminates the effects of seasonality on loans, posted growth of+10.1% YoY in IEAs, which was due primarily to growth in loans and available funds and, to a lesser extent, to an increase in investments. Loans, our most profitable assets, registered growth of +2.0% QoQ and +7.0% YoY in average daily loan balances, which was mainly attributable to expansion in BCP Stand-alone’s portfolios, where the increase in Retail Banking was particularly noteworthy. Expansion was also associated, although to a lesser extent, with growth in Wholesale Banking.

1.1. Evolution of IEA

 

Total loans

 

Total loans, measured in quarter-end balances, grew +2.6% QoQ, which was mainly attributable to growth in the loan portfolio for Universal Banking:

 

(i)        At BCP Stand-alone, the largest increase was generated by Retail Banking and driven by growth in all segments, where Mortgage and Consumer continue to post noteworthy results; the expansion in Wholesale Banking was attributable to growth in both the Corporate and Middle Market Banking segments.

 

(ii)       At BCP Bolivia, growth in quarter end balances QoQ was attributable mainly to the Corporate and Mortgage segments followed by growth in the Consumer segment.

 

YoY, loans expanded +6.8%, driven by growth in the majority of segments, which was led, in order of magnitude, by:

 

(i)        Growth in Retail Banking, led by the Mortgage and Consumer segments.

 

(ii)       Growth in the Wholesale Banking portfolio, led by Middle Market Banking.

 

(iii)      Growth in loans at Mibanco and BCP Bolivia.

Investments

 

Total investments fell -1.3% QoQ. In the YoY evolution, total investments increased +6.9%, which reflected a slight recomposition where fair value through other comprehensive income investments (formerly securities available for sale) increased their share of total investments while investments at amortized cost and fair value through profit and loss investments posted decreases.

 

Other IEA

 

Available funds grew 15.6% QoQ and 53.1% YoY due to growth in FC funds held at BCRP and, to a lesser extent, to an increase in FC balances in foreign banks after the level of foreign currency funding at BCP Stand-alone rose.

 

1.2. Credicorp Loans

 

1.2.1. Loan evolution by business segment

 

The chart below shows the composition of loans by subsidiary and loan segment measured in average daily balances. These balances provide the most accurate platform to analyze the evolution of income generation from interest on loans, which constitutes Credicorp’s main source of income. Additionally, average daily balances reflect trends or variations to a different degree than quarter-end balances which may include pre-payments or loans made at the end of the quarter, that affect average daily balances less than quarter-end balances.

 

Average daily loan balances posted growth of +2.0% QoQ. Similar to last quarter, this expansion was driven by the results of the Mortgage and Consumer segments. YoY, average daily loan balances expanded +7.0%. This evolution reflected a significant increase in the Mortgage segment followed by slighter increases in Credit Cards, Consumer and SME-Pyme. Growth was also driven, albeit to a lesser extent, to an improvement in the results for Wholesale Banking, where Middle Market banking drove expansion. Growth in loan balances both QoQ and YoY was concentrated in local currency.

Loan Growth QoQ in Average Daily Balances

Expressed in millions of S/

 

+2.0% QoQ

 

 

In the analysis by segment, we see that QoQ growth in loans measured in average daily balances reflects:

 

(i)Growth across BCP Stand-alone’s portfolios and in the portfolios of other subsidiaries with the exception of ASB.

 

(ii)The Retail Banking segments at BCP Stand-alone -fueled mainly by expansion in the Mortgage and Consumer segments- contributed the most to portfolio growth.

 

It is important to note that real loan growth in average daily balances was situated at +1.2% QoQ if we eliminate the effect of +2.6% QoQ appreciation of the dollar.

 

Loan Growth YoY in Average Daily Balances

Expressed in millions of S/

The YoY analysis by segment, measured in average daily balances, shows the following:

 

(i)Within Retail Banking, the Mortgage segment evolution stands out (+S/1,936 million, +13.7% YoY), growing consistently through several previous quarters.

 

(ii)Other significant variations were seen in the Credit Card segment (+S/969 million), Consumer (+S/964 million) and SME-Pyme (+S/912 million) within Retail Banking and in Middle Market Banking (+S/945 million) and Corporate (+S/526 million) in Wholesale Banking.

 

(iii)Loan growth at BCP Bolivia was situated at +7.9% YoY. This evolution was mainly attributable to growth in the Corporate and Mortgage (regulated) portfolio followed by loan expansion in the Consumer portfolio.

 

(iv)Loan growth at Mibanco (+5.0% YoY), which reflects the bank’s strategy to grow loans hand-in-hand with its commitment to expanding financial exclusion (bringing new clients into the system) while supporting the development of current clients.

 

It is important to note that real loan growth YoY in average daily balances was situated at +6.3% if we eliminate the effect of appreciation in the US Dollar over the year (+2.5% YoY).

(2) The FC share of Credicorp’s loan portfolio is calculated including BCP Bolivia and ASB, however the chart shows only the loan books of BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco.

(3) The year with the historic maximum level of dollarization for Wholesale Banking was 2012, for Mibanco was 2016 and for the rest of segments was 2009.

 

At BCP Stand-alone, the loan dollarization level fell to 37%. As expected, the Mortgage segment continues to post a downward trend in the dollarization level of its portfolio, which fell from 20% in September 2018 to 15% in September 2019. The aforementioned was attributable to the fact that a large proportion of total loan disbursements was in LC.

 

It is important to note that, as is evident in the following figure, the percentage of the loan portfolio that is highly exposed to FX risk on credit risk remains very low.

1.2.3. BCRP de-dollarization plan at BCP Stand-alone

 

At the end of 2014, BCRP set up a Program to reduce the dollarization level of the loan book in the Peruvian Banking System. As part of this Program, BCRP set some targets to reduce the loan balances in US Dollars progressively at the end of June 2015, December 2015, December 2016, December 2017, December 2018 and December 2019. The balances that are subject to reduction targets are the total FC portfolio, with some exceptions, and the balance of the joint mortgage and car loan portfolio. The balance required at the end of December 2019 is as follows:

 

(i)For the total portfolio in FC, the goal set for 2018 will continue to apply. In this context, the balance at the end of December 2018 must represent no more than 80% of the total loan balance in FC reported at the end of September 2013 (excluding loans that meet certain requirements.)

 

At the end of September 2019, BCP Stand-alone reported a compliance level of 106% with regard to the goal set by BCRP for December 2019.

 

  9

 

 

(ii)For the combined FC Mortgage and Car portfolio, the target was adjusted in December 2018 to stipulate that the balance at the end of December of 2019 must represent no more than 40% of the balance of the combined Mortgage and Car portfolio reported at the end of February 2013. Every year, the target will be adjusted by 10% to reach a minimum of 5% of Net Equity.

 

At the end of September 2019, BCP Stand-alone reported a compliance level of 87% with regard to the dedollarization goal set by BCRP indicated above.

Peruvian Financial System

 

At the end of August 2019, BCP Stand-alone continued to lead the Peruvian financial market(1) with a market share (MS) of 28.7%, which outpaced the 17.7% share posted by our closest competitor. This level was higher to that obtained in 2Q19 (+20 bps) but fell below that posted in 3Q18 (-30bps). Mibanco registered a market share of total loans in the Financial System of 3.2%, similar to the levels seen in 2Q19 and 3Q18.

 

Within Wholesale Banking, the Corporate Banking segment registered an improvement of +110 bps in its MS with regard to 2Q19’s result, which contrasts with the evolution of Middle Market Banking’s result, which fell -20 bps during the same period. In the YoY evolution, Corporate Banking reported an increase of +50 bps in MS while Middle Market Banking maintained the same level posted in 3Q18. It is important to note that both of these BCP segments continue to lead their respective markets.

 

Within Retail Banking, BCP continued to lead the Mortgage loan market, posting growth of +20 bps QoQ and +110 bps YoY due to a large increase in loan balances in this segment. The SME-Business segment at BCP, which tied for first place in MS in 2Q19 with a share of 31.3%(2), pulled ahead of its closest competitor this quarter with an MS of 32.4% versus 31.7% for the runner-up. In the Consumer and Credit Card segments, BCP ranks second in the market.

 

In the SME-Pyme segment, Mibanco continues to lead with an MS of 21.9%, which falls below the MS reported in 2Q19 and 3Q18 of 22.2%. BCP is second in the segment with an MS of 11.4%.

 

Bolivian Financial System

 

Finally, the MS reported by BCP Bolivia fell YoY and QoQ; nevertheless, the subsidiary continues to rank fifth in the Bolivian financial system with a 9.3% share of the market.

2.Funding Sources

 

At the end of 3Q19, total funding increased QoQ and YoY. The funding structure at Credicorp registered an expansion in deposits and obligations, the group’s main source of funding, posting an increase in their share of total funding. The increase in the funding volume was also attributable to a variation in the liability management of corporate bonds at BCP Stand-alone in LC and FC with extended maturity horizons and reduced rates. All of the aforementioned offset the drop in BCRP instruments and Repurchase agreements. In this context, Credicorp’s funding cost remained relatively stable.

2.1. Funding Structure

 

Evolution of the funding structure and cost – BAP

(S/ billions)

 

The graph depicting the evolution of Credicorp’s funding structure is calculated with quarter-end balances. The funding structure reflects:

 

(i)The on-going importance of deposits as the main source of funding, which imply lower costs than other alternatives in the mix, posted a significant increase in their share of total funding both QoQ (+140 bps) and YoY (+80bps) to situate at a level of 77.1% (vs. 75.7% in Jun 19 and 76.3% in Sep 18). Growth in deposits was due primarily to an increase in the volume of demand deposits and savings deposits.

 

(ii)The deposit mix continues to reflect significant shares for savings deposits and demand deposits, which grew QoQ and YoY. At the end of Sep 19 these deposits represented 61.7% of total deposits (vs. 60.6% in Jun 19 and 61.3% in Sep 18). Both types of deposits are considered lower-cost alternatives within the deposit mix. Also, it is important to note on-going growth in time deposits, which negatively impacted the funding cost through volume and rate effects.

 

  11

 

 

(iii)Within other sources of funding, the QoQ analysis reveals a contraction that was mainly associated with a decrease in the volume of BCRP Instruments, which fell from 4.8% at the end of Jun 19 to 3.0% at the close of Sep 19, to post the lowest level reported since 2014. The drop in volume was also due, albeit to a lesser extent, to a decrease in Due to banks and Correspondents (6.2% in Sep 19 vs. 6.8% in Jun 19) and in Repurchase agreements (1.5% in Sep 19 vs. 1.8% in Jun 19).

 

(iv)It is important to note the growth in Bonds and notes issued (14.0% QoQ and 12.9% YoY), which posted an increase in their share of other sources of funding (53.7% in Sep 19 vs. 45.6% in Jun 19 and 50.2% in Sep 18). This evolution was attributable to a liability management of corporate bond issuances at BCP Stand-alone.

 

All of the aforementioned has allowed Credicorp to maintain a relatively stable cost of funding since 2015.

 

2.2. Deposits

 

Deposits and obligations  As of   % change 
S/ 000  Sep 18   Jun 19   Sep 19   QoQ   YoY 
Demand deposits   29,312,361    29,863,335    32,626,001    9.3%   11.3%
Saving deposits   30,396,175    32,604,309    33,681,765    3.3%   10.8%
Time deposits   30,186,076    32,472,216    33,194,331    2.2%   10.0%
Severance indemnity deposits   6,923,829    7,609,448    7,205,449    -5.3%   4.1%
Interest payable   556,970    607,736    684,174    12.6%   22.8%
Deposits and obligations   97,375,411    103,157,044    107,391,720    4.1%   10.3%

 

Deposits and obligations reported growth of 4.1% QoQ. The QoQ evolution of the deposit mix shows:

 

(i)An increase in demand deposits, which grew 9.3% QoQ due to an increase in the volume of interest-bearing and non-interest bearing demand deposits (50% increase in each deposit type) at BCP Stand-alone. It is important to note that growth in non-interest bearing deposits was seen primarily in LC (75% of the increase in LC) while growth in interest-bearing demand deposits is associated with FC (86% of the increase in FC).

 

(ii)Growth in savings deposits, mainly in LC, reflects the results of campaigns to capture savings, mainly through digital channels, which have good acceptance and use levels among BCP Stand-alone’s clients. These high levels of acceptance are mainly attributable to the use of the Yape payment application, which hit a level of a million and a half users in 3Q19.

 

(iii)The increase in the volume of time deposits at BCP Stand-alone, which was primarily attributable to an increase in the deposit balances of Wholesale Banking clients in FC and to the evolution at BCP Bolivia, which rolled out a strategy to capture deposits that are more stable in the mid-term.

 

The aforementioned was attenuated by the QoQ drop in:

 

(i)Severance indemnity deposits, due to seasonality, given that clients use the surplus available in their severance accounts (after the first yearly payment is made in 2Q).

 

In YoY terms, total deposits and obligations reported growth in all types of deposits, which reflects an increase of 10.3% in the main source of funding.

2.2.1. Deposits: dollarization level

 

Dollarization Level of Deposits (1) – BAP

  

(1) Q-end balances.

 

Credicorp - Deposit Dollarization measured in quarter-end balances

 

 

The dollarization level of deposits at Credicorp fell slightly QoQ given that growth in LC volumes surpassed the expansion posted by FC volumes.

 

Growth in volumes in both LC and FC was posted for all types of deposits with the exception of Severance indemnity deposits. The increase in the LC volume was attributable primarily to demand deposits, particularly non-interest bearing deposits, and to a lesser extent to savings deposits. The increase in FC was due to growth in the level of demand deposits, specifically interest-bearing deposits, and in time deposits.

 

The YoY evolution followed a trend similar to that posted for the QoQ evolution; YoY, LC deposits grew 13.1% while FC deposits expanded 7.7%. The aforementioned was attributable to the fact that all LC deposits posted growth, led by an increase in savings deposits and demand deposits. Deposits in FC grew across deposit types with the exception of Severance indemnity deposits. These results are proof that we are on track in terms of our goal to maintain an asset and liability currency match that is aligned with Credicorp’s appetite.

Peruvian Financial System

 

At the end of Aug 19, Credicorp’s subsidiaries in Peru, BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, reported an MS of 30.2% and 2.8% (in comparison to 29.1% and 2.8% at the end of Jun 19 respectively). With these results, Credicorp continued to lead the market for total deposits with a share that considerably outpaces that of its closest competitor (with an MS of 19.0%).

 

In the YoY analysis, BCP Stand-alone’s MS also grew with regard to the figure in Sep 18. This was primarily attributable to an increase in the MS of demand deposits and time deposits. Mibanco’s MS fell YoY (2.8% Aug 19 vs. 3.1% Sep 18) due to a contraction in the MS of time deposits, which feel from 6.7% in Sep 18 to 6.0% in Aug 19.

 

Bolivian Financial System

 

BCP Bolivia continued to rank fifth in the Bolivian financial system with an MS of 9.6% at the end of Sep 19 (the same level reported in Jun 19). In the YoY analysis, the MS fell slightly in comparison to the figure posted at the end of Sep 18 (9.9%).

 

2.3. Other funding sources

 

Other funding sources  As of   % change 
S/ 000  Sep 18   Jun 19   Sep 19   QoQ   YoY 
Due to banks and correspondents   7,509,183    9,222,278    8,624,286    -6.5%   14.8%
BCRP instruments   4,851,806    6,304,186    4,144,908    -34.3%   -14.6%
Repurchase agreements   2,739,630    2,455,665    2,031,025    -17.3%   -25.9%
Bonds and notes issued   15,194,775    15,058,760    17,160,564    14.0%   12.9%
Total other funding sources   30,295,394    33,040,889    31,960,783    -3.3%   5.5%

 

The Total of other funding sources fell -3.3% QoQ. This was mainly attributable to a decrease in the level of BCRP Instruments and, to a lesser extent, to the contraction in Due to banks and correspondents and Repurchase agreements. The aforementioned was attenuated by the growth in Bonds and notes issued due to a variation in the liability management at BCP Stand-alone.

 

  14

 

 

Due to banks and correspondents, which contracted due to: (i) a drop in the level of debt held with foreign financial institutions after some of BCP Stand-alone’s obligations came due in the month of August for a total of $300 million and (ii) a drop in the exchange rate.

 

In the case of BCRP Instruments, the QoQ decline was attributable to a drop in the level of regular repos with BCRP, which expired. These instruments dropped at both BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco.

 

Repurchase agreements fell QoQ after repos and Certificates of Deposit (CD) expired. The majority of these expirations were registered in LC through BCP Stand-alone and in FC through ASB.

 

Bonds and notes issued were the only funding source that posted growth QoQ. This increase was attributable to the liability management of corporate bonds at BCP Stand-alone. Growth in LC was attributable to restructuring operations to convert a S/2,000 million issuance with an expiration date in 2020 and a coupon rate of 4.85% into a new issuance composed of a repurchase of S/1,600 million plus “New Money” for S/900 million with a new expiration date in September 2024 and a coupon rate of 4.60%. In the case of FC, an issuance of $700 million with an expiration date in 2020 and a coupon rate of 5.375% into a new issuance composed of a repurchase of $425 million plus “New Money” for $275 million with a new expiration date in January 2025 and a coupon rate of 2.70%.

 

In the YoY evolution, other funding sources posted growth of 5.5%. This was attributable to an increase in the level of Bonds and notes issued and Due to banks and correspondents, mainly at BCP Stand-alone and in both currencies.

 

2.4. Loan / Deposit (L/D)

 

Loan / Deposit Ratio by Subsidiary

 

 

The L/D ratio at Credicorp fell QoQ, situating at 104.5%. This was attributable to the fact that growth in deposits (+4.1%) outpaced the increase registered by loans (+2.6%).

 

In the analysis by subsidiary reveals the same trend at BCP Stand-alone (105.9% Sep 19 vs. 107.5% Jun 19). The QoQ drop in the L/D at BCP Stand-alone took place in a scenario in which growth in the deposit volume (+4.2%) was greater than the expansion registered for loans (+2.6%). On the deposit side, the increase was driven by an expansion in the level of demand deposits and savings deposits. In the case of Mibanco, QoQ growth in the L/D was attributable to the fact that loan growth (+0.9%) outpaced the expansion in deposits (0.4%).

 

In the YoY analysis, the L/D for Credicorp and its subsidiaries mirrors the dynamism seen in the QoQ analysis. At the Credicorp level, on-going growth in deposits outpaces the expansion registered for loans (10.3% vs. 6.8%, respectively).

Loan / Deposit Ratio by Currency

 

Local Currency   Foreign Currency
     
 

 

In the QoQ analysis by currency, the L/D ratio in LC at Credicorp remained stable given that the increase in deposits and loans was proportional. The L/D in FC at Credicorp fell QoQ in a scenario in which growth in deposits (+7.7%) outpaced the expansion registered for loans (+2.6%). The aforementioned was driven by growth in FC deposits (+4.2%) and by a contraction in FC loans (-0.9%) at BCP Stand-alone.

 

In the YoY analysis, Credicorp reported a drop in the L/D ratio for LC and FC. This was primarily driven by the fact that the level of deposits in both currencies grew at a faster rate than the expansion registered for loans.

 

2.5. Funding Cost

 

Funding Cost – Credicorp (1)

 

 

(1) The funding cost by currency is calculated with the average of period-beginning and period-end balances.

 

Credicorp’s funding cost increased QoQ and YoY. The QoQ evolution shows:

 

(i)Growth in the funding cost in LC (+31 bps), was mainly attributable to an increase in interest expenses on bonds and notes issued, which represents 92% of the increase in LC expenses. Expansion in this line was associated with the liability management of bonds at BCP Stand-alone. Excluding the liability management one-off effects, funding cost in LC is 2.61%.

 

(ii)The slight increase in the total funding cost (+1 bps), was primarily due to an increase in expenses for bonds and notes issued, which accounted for 45% of the increase in expenses, and for deposits, which accounted 40% of the increase.

 

In the case of deposits, the increase was attributable to the volume effect and deposit mix given that interest-bearing demand deposits and time deposits represent 46% of the growth in total deposits. The aforementioned was partially attenuated by the increase in non-interest bearing deposits and savings deposits, which grew 5.4% and 3.3% respectively. These last two deposits are the lowest cost alternatives in the funding mix. In this context, the ratio remained relatively stable.

 

  16

 

 

(iii)The reduction registered in the funding cost in FC (-26 bps) was primarily attributable to a decrease in interest expenses on bonds and notes after the rate for the liability management bonds at BCP Stand-alone dropped (going from 5.375% to 2.70%), which offset the volume effect. Excluding liability management one-off effects, funding cost in FC is 2.30%.

 

In the YoY analysis, growth in the funding cost was attributable to:

 

(i)The volume effect and mix, where time deposits increased 10% to represent 30% of the growth in the deposit volume. Consequently, time deposits registered an increase in their share of the funding mix. It is important to note that 73% of the increase in interest expenses on deposits was attributable to LC funding. The variation in funding in local currency was attributable to growth in the volumes of all deposit types in LC; time deposits represented 23% of growth.

 

(ii)The 14.3% increase in other interest expenses due to the application of IFRS 16, which stipulates that expenses for leasing must be included in interest expenses.

 

(iii)A higher volume of Bonds and notes issued in LC following the liability management of bonds at BCP Stand-alone, which occurred despite a rate drop (going from 4.85% to 4.65%). The aforementioned was attenuated by a reduction in interest expenses in FC after international interest rates dropped; this helped mitigate the impact.

 

The funding cost by subsidiary is shown in the figure below:

 

Funding Cost by subsidiary– Credicorp

 

 

(i)The funding cost at BCP Stand-alone followed the same trend seen with Credicorp’s funding cost, where growth both QoQ and YoY was primarily associated with an increase in the volumes of time deposits and bonds and notes issued.

 

(ii)The funding cost at Mibanco reported growth QoQ and YoY, which reflected efforts to roll out a strategy to capture more retail funding by offering competitive rates. In the QoQ analysis, the increase posted in the ratio, which occurred despite a drop in interest expenses (-5.8%), was attributable to a contraction in total funding (-13.9%). YoY, interest expenses increased 3.1% due to an increase in rates while total funding contracted -11.1% after a drop was registered in debt obligations.

 

(iii)The funding cost at BCP Bolivia increased QoQ and YoY. This was primarily attributable to an increase in interest expenses (3.8% and 10.4% respectively) on deposits; the volume and mix effect (where time deposits posted the highest growth); and other interest expenses (leasing).

3.  Portfolio quality and Provisions for loan losses

 

Credicorp’s Costo of Risk (CofR) increased 15 bps QoQ. This was primarily attributable to an increase in the provisions requirement in Retail Banking and, to a lesser extent, at Mibanco. In YoY and YTD terms, Credicorp’s CofR also increased due to an increase in the provisions requirement for Retail Banking and, to a lesser extent, for Wholesale Banking. The delinquency ratios posted a slight improvement QoQ and YoY, which was primarily attributable to growth in the Retail Banking portfolio at BCP Stand-alone.

3.1. Provisions for loan losses

Provision for credit losses on loan portfolio, net of recoveries   (439,558)   (448,294)   (502,772)   12.2%   14.4%   (1,123,754)   (1,334,277)   18.7%

 

Provisions for loan losses net recoveries registered increases of 12.2%, 14.4% and 18.7% QoQ, YoY and in YTD terms respectively. The YoY and YTD increase was due primarily to:

 

(i)Retail Banking: The increase was mainly generated by the SME-Pyme segment and to a lesser extent by the Consumer segment. The SME-Pyme segment registered growth mainly due to an increase in the number of days overdue reported for loans that were already considered non-performing. In the consumer segment, the increase was associated with new loans for digital consumption, which are directed at clients with higher risk. It is important to note that while this product implies higher risk, it also generates more income.

 

(ii)Wholesale Banking: A specific client (in the entertainment segment) experienced deterioration in its debt service capacity, which led provisions to register higher-than-normal levels. It is important to note that this loan has been adequately provisioned and as such, will require no new provisions in coming quarters.

 

(iii)Macroeconomic estimates: In keeping with the anticipated loss model, which includes macroeconomic estimates, the change in forecasts last quarter generated an increase in provisions in the model this quarter.

 

The aforementioned was offset by an improvement in the Mortgage portfolio, which was mainly attributable to an improvement in the risk profile of traditional mortgage loans and MiVivienda.

 

The QoQ analysis reveals an increase in provisions at both Retail Banking and Mibanco. The increase in the latter was attributable to an economic downturn and to an increase in the disbursement level this quarter. It is important to note that we have made some adjustments to origination guidelines and collection policies to impede further deterioration.

When examining the portfolio’s delinquency ratios, it is important to note that:

 

(i)The total IOL Portfolio reported slight growth QoQ and YoY, in line with the portfolio’s evolution. The IOL over 90 days portfolio increased 4.8% QoQ. This growth was mainly attributable to the Consumer segment and SME-Pyme segment, in line with the increase in provisions outlined in section 3.1. Provisions for Loan Losses.

 

(ii)The NPL portfolio increase 1.6% QoQ and 4.8% YoY. This was primarily driven by growth in the IOL portfolio.

 

Consequently, the delinquency ratios registered an improvement, which was driven by a context in which both the IOL portfolio and the NPL portfolio posted lower growth than gross loans. It is important to note that a portion of the reduction in these ratios is attributable to the sale of approximately S/60 million of under legal collection loans this quarter. These loans could not be written off because real guarantees were in place.

 

The coverage ratios improved QoQ given that growth in provisions for loan losses outpaced the expansion registered for the IOL portfolio and refinanced balances. Nevertheless, in the YoY analysis, the coverage ratios deteriorated due to an increase in charge-offs since the first quarter of the year.

 

Prior to analyzing the evolution of delinquency indicators, it is important to remember that:

 

(i)Traditional delinquency ratios (IOL and NPL ratios) continue to be distorted by the presence of loans with real estate collateral (commercial and residential properties). This means that a significant portion of loans that are more than 150 days past due cannot be written-off (despite the fact that provisions have been set aside) given that a judicial process must be initiated to liquidate the collateral, which takes five years on average.

 

  19

 

 

(ii)In the second half (2H) of every year, loans are more dynamic, particularly in the SME-Pyme and Mibanco segments given that the main campaigns (Christmas and year-end campaigns) are held in the second semester (2H) and these short-term loans are paid off in 1H of the following year

 

Delinquency Ratios

 

 

(1) Adjusted NPL ratio = (Non-performing loans+ Write-offs) / (Total loans + Write-offs).

(2) Cost of risk = Annualized provisions for loan losses net of recoveries / Total loans.

 

3.2.1. Delinquency indicators by business line

 

Wholesale Banking – Delinquency ratios

 

 

(i)The QoQ analysis shows a slight reduction in the IOL and refinanced portfolios. This decrease was primarily due to loan growth during the quarter. In the YoY evolution, the NPL ratio increased. This was mainly attributable to the refinancing extended a specific client in the last quarter of 2018.

 

  20

 

 

SME-Business – Delinquency ratios

 

 

(ii)The IOL and NPL ratios posted increases both QoQ and YoY. This was mainly attributable to the deterioration of the debt service capacity of a small number of clients. These loans have been fully provisioned and are backed by guarantees. It is important to note that this segment’s risk quality indicators are within the appetite for risk that has been set where the objective is to maximize the portfolio’s profitability by striking an adequate balance between risk quality and growth.

 

SME - Pyme – Delinquency ratios

 

 

(iii)In the SME-Pyme loan book, it is important to analyze the early delinquency ratio, which excludes loans that are overdue less than 60 days (volatile loans whose percentage of recovery is very high) and those overdue more than 150 days (loans that have been provisioned but which cannot be written off due to the existence of real estate collateral- commercial properties - that take five years on average to liquidate).

 

In 3Q19, the IOL and NPL ratios posted a slight improvement QoQ and YoY, mainly due to the sale of a portion of the under legal collection loans this quarter. The early delinquency ratio registered a slight improvement QoQ of 13 bps but reported a deterioration of 27 bps YoY. This deterioration was attributable to an increase in the number of clients whose loans are more than 60 days past due, which triggered an increase in provisions.

 

  21

 

 

It is important to note that since 2017, this segment has situated comfortably within the risk appetite levels set for the segment, where the objective is to maximize the portfolio’s profitability while striking an adequate balance between risk quality and portfolio growth that is in accordance with the organization’s risk framework.

 

Mortgage – Delinquency ratios

 

 

(iv)In terms of Mortgage loans, it is important to note that these ratios are also affected by the existence of real estate collateral and foreclosure takes around 5 years. During this period, these loans cannot be written-off, even when they are fully provisioned.

 

Traditional delinquency ratios fell QoQ and YoY given that the pace of growth of total loans increased after mortgage loan origination accelerated and the sale of the under legal collection loans this quarter.

 

The early delinquency ratio, which excludes the effect of loans that are over 150 days overdue, was relatively stable QoQ and YoY. It is important to note that this indicator is situated better than the average observed for the last three years and the organization’s appetite for risk.

 

Consumer – Delinquency ratios

 

 

(v)The indicators for traditional delinquency registered a drop both QoQ and YoY, which was primarily attributable to growth in total loans after: i) campaigns were rolled out to offer better products and conditions to clients, and ii) to the sale of a portion of the under legal collection loans this quarter. It is important to note that the portfolio is within the organization’s appetite for risk.

 

  22

 

 

Our traditional delinquency and early delinquency levels are both at the lowest levels that we have seen in the last five years, which speaks well of our risk management and collections initiatives.

 

Delinquency ratios have improved; nonetheless, the consumer segment has registered an increase in provisions. This was due, in part, to the higher risk assumed when generating digital sales. These products may imply greater risk, but the upside is that they are accompanied by higher income.

 

Credit Card – Delinquency ratios

 

 

 

(vi)The Credit Card segment registered a decline in its traditional delinquency ratios QoQ. This was primarily due to the sale of the under legal collection loans this quarter and to the effect of statutory bonus payments to dependent employees in July, which prompted some clients to pay credit card debts. The early delinquency ratio posted a drop given that growth in total loans was greater than the expansion posted by loans overdue by 60 and 150 days.

 

In the YoY analysis, the traditional delinquency ratios also improved. This was mainly due to growth in total loans and to the sale of a portion of the portfolio. Nevertheless, early delinquency rose, driven primarily by an increase in loans that are more than 90 days overdue.

 

Mibanco – Delinquency ratios

 

 

  23

 

 

(vii)The IOL ratio improved slightly QoQ and YoY due to the decrease of the write-offs. The NPL portfolio posted and improvement both QoQ and YoY due to initiatives to optimize new loan acceptance, which has help cut the number of refinanced loans.

 

The cost of risk deteriorated QoQ due to the effect of macroeconomic estimates, as indicated in section 3.1. Provisions for Loan Losses, and to the increase in new disbursements. In the YoY analysis, the probability of improved.

 

BCP Bolivia – Delinquency ratios

 

 

(viii)BCP Bolivia reported deterioration QoQ and YoY in its traditional delinquency ratios. This result was primarily attributable to Retail Banking and is aligned with the evolution posted by the financial system in general in Bolivia. Nonetheless, it is important to note that BCP Bolivia has one of the lowest delinquency ratios in the system.

 

In terms of the cost of risk, it presented an improvement QoQ and YoY due to the decrease in over-due days of some clients that already that already presented deteriorated loans, which represents a reduction in the probability of default in the expected loss model.

4.  Net Interest Income (NII)

 

In 3Q19, NII, Credicorp’s main source of income, increased +0.9% QoQ and +6.5% YoY while average interest earning assets rose +2.4% QoQ and +8.9% YoY. The aforementioned led NIM to deteriorate -8 bps QoQ and - 13bps YoY. YTD, NII increased +7.7%, which translated into an increase of +6bps in NIM. These results were attributable to an improvement in the evolution this year versus last. Nevertheless, due to the increase in the cost of risk, risk-adjusted NIM contracted -18bps QoQ, -18bps YoY and -5bps YTD.

4.1. Interest Income

 

Interest Income - LC   Interest Income – FC
(S/ millions)   (S/ millions)

 

 

 

In the QoQ analysis, the increase of +1.3% in Interest Income was due primarily to growth in interest income on loans, which was in turn attributable to:

 

(i)Slight acceleration in the growth of average daily loan balances (+2.1% QoQ), which was led by Retail Banking.

 

(ii)The mix by segment given that although Wholesale Banking continues to represent the highest share of total loans with 41.6%, Retail Banking has increased its share of total loans, going from 40.0% in 2Q19 to 40.5% in 3Q19. Additionally, although mortgage loans continue to lead growth in volumes, segments with higher margins, such as consumer and SME-Pyme, have also registered significant increases.

 

  25

 

 

(iii)The currency mix given that a larger portion of loan expansion was generated by LC products, which offer better margins than their FC counterparts. The effect of the currency mix also favored growth in interest income on loans.

 

In the YoY analysis, interest income expanded +8.2%, which represented a slower pace of growth than that registered in 2Q19. Growth in net interest income was mainly attributable to an increase in interest income from loans (+6.4%).

 

YTD, interest income rose +8.5%, which was due primarily to an increase in income from interest on loans, which was in turn attributable to:

 

(i)The volume effect due to an uptick in the growth of average daily balances in all segments with the exception of ASB, which translates into total loan growth of +7.1%. This increase was driven mainly by Retail Banking, which registered a +12.3% increase in average daily loan balances YoY.

 

(ii)The mix by segment as Retail Banking represented 40.5% of total loans versus 38.7% in 3Q18.

 

(iii)The currency mix was also favorable, given that the expansions reported in average daily balances was mainly attributable to growth in the LC portfolio of +15.9% YoY.

 

To a lesser extent, interest income increased due to:

 

(i)Growth in interest on deposits in other banks, which reflects an increase in the volume of BCRP funds. It is important to note that the majority of funds held in BCRP are in FC because the reserve requirement for FC is significantly higher than that required for LC.

 

(ii)The increase in interest on securities, which corresponds to growth of 13.9% YoY in the fair value through other comprehensive income investments portfolio. Portfolio growth at the Credicorp level was attributable to expansion in the portfolios of BCP Stand-alone and Pacifico, which grew 28% and 16% respectively.

 

4.2. Interest Expenses

 

Interest Expenses - LC   Interest Expenses - FC
(S/ millions)   (S/ millions)

 

 

 

In the QoQ analysis, interest expenses increased +2.3%, which was attributable firstly to bonds and subordinated notes and secondly, to the increase in interest expenses on deposits.

 

Growth of 3.8% in expenses for bonds and subordinated notes was attributable to liability management of corporate bonds issued by BCP Stand-alone in the third quarter of the year, both in local and foreign currency, which allowed to extend the maturity and at the same time reduce the interest rates of both issuances with maturity at 2020. Additionally, due to higher demand, “new money” was raised for both corporate bonds and the nominal amounts were increased by 900 million for LC and 275 million in FC.

 

  26

 

 

The factors that explain the 2.1% increase in interest expenses on deposits QoQ are:

 

(i)The volume effect given that the total deposit balance grew 4.1% QoQ.

 

(ii)The deposit mix given that the corresponding increase was mainly due to growth in balances for interest-bearing deposits, specifically savings deposits (+3.3%) and time deposits (+2.2%).

 

(iii)The effect of the currency mix given that the increase in the deposit volume was generated by LC deposits, which pay higher rates than FC deposits.

 

In the YoY analysis, interest expenses grew +13.1%. Growth in this component was mainly driven by the +27% YoY expansion registered for interest expenses on deposits.

 

YTD, interest expenses grew +10.8%. This growth was primarily attributable to the +24.4% expansion in interest income on deposits, which was in turn due to:

 

(i)The volume effect given that all deposit types increased YoY.

 

(ii)The effect of the deposit mix given that the deposits that posted the highest increases in volume were savings deposits (+10.8%) followed by time deposits (+10%).

 

(iii)The currency mix effect given that the increase in the deposit volume was generated by LC deposits.

 

An increase was registered for interest expenses for bonds and subordinated notes for issuances made in the third quarter of the year, as indicated above.

 

4.3. Net Interest Margin (NIM) and Risk-Adjusted NIM

 

Credicorp’s NIM and Risk-Adjusted NIM (1)

 

 

 

(1) Starting on 1Q17, we exclude derivatives from the NII result. For comparative purposes, figures starting from 1Q16 have been recalculated with the new methodology

 

NIM registered a positive evolution at the YTD, which was attributable to:

 

(i)Higher expansion in NII, which, as explained earlier, was in line with loan growth, mainly in retail banking.

 

(ii)The increase in interest income on securities due to growth in the fair value through other comprehensive income investments (formerly securities available for sale).

 

Risk-adjusted NIM fell -18pbs both QoQ and YoY and -5bps YTD due to an increase in provisions, as indicated in the previous section. Growth in loans, as discussed earlier, was driven mainly by Retail Banking, which offers higher margins but also implies higher risk.

 

  27

 

 

NIM on loans deteriorated YoY (-10 bps) and at the YTD (-26 bps) in a context of low market rates. The drop-in rates has hit the Wholesale Banking segments at BCP Stand-alone which are more sensitive to movements in interest rates-hardest but have also affected, albeit to a lesser extent, Retail Banking and Mibanco.   

 

It is also important to analyze the NIM by subsidiary. The table below shows the interest margins for each of Credicorp’s main subsidiaries.

 

NIM Breakdown  BCP
Stand-alone
(1)
   Mibanco   BCP
Bolivia
(1)
   Credicorp(1)(2) 
3Q18   4.83%   15.92%   3.93%   5.53%
2Q19   4.86%   14.89%   3.66%   5.48%
3Q19   4.83%   15.16%   3.72%   5.40%
YTD - Sep 18   4.56%   16.01%   3.66%   5.31%
YTD - Sep 19   4.75%   14.85%   3.59%   5.37%

 

NIM: Annualized Net interest income / Average period end and period beginning interest earning assets.

(1) Figures differ from previously reported, please consider the data presented on this report.

(2) Credicorp also includes Credicorp Capital, Prima, Grupo Credito and Eliminations for consolidation purposes.

 

In the YTD evolution at Credicorp, we see a slight recovery that corresponds to an improvement in NIM at BCP Individual, which represents around 69% of net interest income. This increase offset the deterioration in NIM at BCP Bolivia and Mibanco. The improvement in the margin is in line with loan growth in higher-margin segments, specifically Retail Banking loans.

 

Mibanco, which represents around 21% of net interest income, posted a noteworthy QoQ recovery in NIM, which was attributable to an improvement in asset and liabilities management that allowed to obtain cheaper funding (deposits). Nevertheless, YoY and at the YTD, Mibanco’s NIM deteriorated. This was primarily attributable to a drop in LC rates in a highly competitive environment, which negatively affected interest income generation.

  

 

(3) NIM on loans is calculated as follows:

 

 

 

The share of loans within total earning assets is calculated by dividing the average of the beginning and closing balances of total loans for the reporting period, by the average of the beginning and closing balances of the interest earning assets for the reporting period.

5.Non-Financial Income

 

In 3Q19, non-financial income registered growth QoQ, YoY and Year-to-date (YTD). This increase was due primarily to growth in the Net gain on securities, which posted an increase in its share of non-financial income, which situated at 11.8% (vs 8.5% in 2Q19 and 4.6% in 3Q18). The aforementioned was attributable to an improvement in the evolution of business at BCP Stand-alone with regard to sales and revaluation of its investments. Fee income, the main source of non-financial income, posted an improvement in results, in line with an uptick in transactional activity at BCP Stand-alone.

 

Non-financial income  Quarter  % change  YTD  % change 
S/ 000   3Q18  2Q19  3Q19  QoQ   YoY   Sep 18   Sep 19   Sep 19 /Sep 18

The QoQ evolution shows expansion of 6.6% in non-financial income due to:

 

(i)An increase in the Net gain on securities due to the sale and fluctuation in the mark to market of securities at BCP Stand-alone. The increase registered for the sale of securities was attributable to gains in the Trading portfolio following the sale of Peruvian government bonds, while the fluctuation in securities was due to gains associated with bonds from the governments of Peru, Mexico and Colombia.

 

(ii)Growth in Fee Income, mainly at BCP Stand-alone, in line with the increase seen in the transactional level every second half of the year and, to a lesser extent, due to growth in fee income from corporate finance and brokerage.

 

All of the aforementioned was offset by:

 

(i)A contraction in Other non-financial income due to an increase in gains reported in 2Q19 for the sale of real estate at BCP Bolivia.

 

The YoY analysis reveals a significant increase in non-financial income of 15.6% due to:

 

(i)Growth in the Net gain on securities, mainly at BCP Stand-alone. This was primarily attributable to the sale of positions in the fair value through other comprehensive income portfolio (formerly securities available for sale) and, to a lesser extent, to an improvement in the results posted by the international and local fixed income portfolio at ASB. Growth at BCP Stand-alone was due to the fact that in 3Q18, losses were registered in this line following the sale of some investments.

 

(ii)Growth of +5.4% in Fee Income due to an improvement in the evolution of banking commissions at BCP Stand-alone and, to a lesser extent, at BCP Bolivia and Mibanco, as we will explain in section 5.1.2 Fee Income in the Banking Business.

 

  29

 

 

(iii)The improvement in Other non-financial income, generated by Pacifico following the release of general and underwriting expenses and at BCP Stand-alone for the sale of some real estate (branches) and holdings in the underlying collections portfolio in the months of July and August.

 

All of the aforementioned was partially offset by:

 

(i)The contraction in the Net gain from exchange differences due to volatility in the exchange rate (USD/PEN), whose variation negatively affected the position of the balance. The volatility of the exchange rate was due primarily to political uncertainty and trade tensions between the USA and China in 3Q19.

 

In the YTD (Sep 19 vs Sep 18), non-financial income increased due to growth in:

 

(i)The Net gain on securities, which was primarily attributable to improvements in the results posted by BCP Stand-alone and ASB and, to a lesser extent, by Credicorp Capital and Prima. The aforementioned was attributable to growth in gains in the proprietary investment portfolios at each subsidiary, which was driven by: i) an increase in the mark to market value (MtM) of fair value through profit and loss investments and ii) the sale of some positions of the fair value through other comprehensive income portfolio. It is important to note that the recovery registered in 2019 versus 2018, given that last year, the increase in the international interest rates negatively affected the investment portfolio.

 

(ii)Fee income, which was mainly attributable to an improvement in business evolution at BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, which we will describe in greater detail in section 5.1.2 Fee income in the Banking Business.

 

All of the aforementioned was offset by:

 

(i)The contraction in the Net gain on derivatives held for trading at Credicorp Capital after income from the forward business dropped to cover exchange risk exposure on investments in the trading portfolio and for trading swaps.

 

(ii)The decrease in the Net gain from exchange differences at BCP Stand-alone, as explained in the YoY analysis.

(3) Mainly Wholesale fees.

(4) Figures differ from previously reported, please consider the data presented on this report.

(5) Includes fees from BCP Bolivia, Mibanco, network usage and other services to third parties, among others.

 

In the QoQ analysis, fee income in the banking business increased +4.4% QoQ. The components that registered the highest increase this quarter were:

 

(i)Miscellaneous accounts, mainly due to the increase in fees for debit cards due to charges for consumption to establishments and for exchange rate differences (exchange rate spread). Fees in the savings accounts also rose, driven by higher income for account maintenance and fund transfers between accounts from clients.

 

  31

 

 

(ii)Others, due to an increase in income at BCP Bolivia due to growth in the volume of foreign drafts and transfers and at Mibanco, due to a methodological change in insurance reporting, as explained in 2Q19.

 

(iii)Drafts and transfers, mainly due to an increase in fees for transfers from savings products; transfers to the interior of the country; interbank transfers; and foreign transfers.

 

Growth was slightly attenuated by:

 

(i)Corporate finance and mutual funds, which was attributable to a decrease in income this quarter after income hit an unusual level in 2Q19 (peak since 2Q17) due to the recognition of deferred fee income for loan cancellations in June.

 

In the YoY analysis, the +8.0% growth was attributable to the same factors that drove the increase in income QoQ. The aforementioned offset the drop in income for Foreign Trade, after lower fees were reported due to letters of credit for import and export, and Credit Cards due to a decrease in billing levels.

 

In the YTD analysis (Sep 19 vs Sep 18), fee income in the banking business increased +6.2% due to:

 

(i)Others, primarily at Mibanco, due to an increase in insurance income, and at BCP Bolivia due to an increase in foreign drafts and transfers and for fees in the contingent portfolio. The aforementioned led Others to increase their share of total fees for banking services to 10.9% in Sep 19 (vs 9.5% in Sep 18).

 

(ii)The increase in Drafts and Transfers due to growth in domestic transfers, foreign transfers and interbank transfers, which was attributable to an increase in transactional activity.

 

(iii)An increase in the level of Payments and collections due to an increase in commissions for collections services, payments for company services and collections for insurance products for clients.

 

The aforementioned offset the drop in Credit Cards, which was attributable to the same factors discussed in the YoY analysis, and to Miscellaneous Accounts due to a decrease in income from account maintenance.

6.Insurance Underwriting Result

 

The insurance underwriting result increased 6.0% QoQ due to an increase in the net earned premium in life insurance and property and casualty business (P&C), which was attenuated by an increase in the net claims and higher acquisition costs in both businesses. The YoY underwriting result increased 3.7% and 1.0% YTD, which was attributable to an increase in net earned premiums in P&C and Life businesses and to a decrease in the acquisition costs for life insurance business. The aforementioned was offset by an increase in net claims for both businesses.

 

Insurance underwriting result  Quarter   % change   YTD   % change 
S/ 000  3Q18   2Q19   3Q19   QoQ   YoY   Sep 18   Sep 19   Sep 19 / Sep 18

Total underwriting result by business

(S/ millions)

 

 

 

In the QoQ analysis, the improvement in the underwriting result was attributable mainly to the life insurance business and to a lesser extent, to the P&C business. In life insurance business, the increase was due to growth in net premiums in Annuities, Credit Life and Group Life, which was attenuated by an increase in net claims in Credit Life and Annuities lines, and to a lesser extent, in Individual Life, and to the increase in acquisition cost due to higher commissions, particularly in Credit Life and Group Life, in line with the increase in net premiums. In the P&C business, the increase in the result is due to an increase in net earned premiums in the Medical Assistance, Personal Lines and Commercial lines, which was attenuated by an increase in net claims in the Medical Assistance and Personal lines.

 

In the YoY analysis, the increase in the underwriting result is attributable to the life insurance business; growth was attenuated by the P&C business. In the life insurance business, the variation was due to an increase in the net earned premium in Disability and Survivorship (D&S) lines and in Credit Life and to a decrease in the acquisition cost, which was attributable to a drop in commissions in Credit Life. This was attenuated by an increase in net claims in D&S, Annuities, Credit Life and Individual Life lines. In the P&C business, the decrease is due to an increase in net claims in the Medical Assistance, Cars and Commercial lines and to growth in the acquisition cost due to higher commissions in Personal Lines, Cars and the Commercial lines. These effects were mitigated by the increase in net earned premium, which was attributable to Medical Assistance, Personal Lines and Cars.

 

In the YTD analysis, in 2019 the underwriting result reported an increase of +1.0%, which was primarily attributable to an improvement in the P&C business due to an increase in the net earned premium for Personal Lines, Medical Assistance and the Car Line. This was attenuated by an increase in net claims in life insurance business, which was mainly driven by the D&S lines and to a lesser extent, by Annuities and Credit Life.

6.1. Net earned premiums

 

Written premiums by business   Net earned premiums by business
(S/ millions)   (S/ millions)
     
 

 

Written premiums decreased -9.6% QoQ, which was primarily attributable to P&C business and, to a lesser extent, to the life insurance business:

 

(i)P&C business decreased in (i) Commercial Lines due to aviation and fire risks, given that last quarter, new accounts led to an increase in written premiums, (ii) Cars due to lower production in the brokers and alliance channel, (iii) Medical Assistance due to a decrease in comprehensive insurance policies and (iv) Personal Lines due to drop in renewals this quarter.

 

(ii)The Life insurance business also posted a decrease, albeit smaller than that registered in P & C. The decrease in life was attributable to a drop in sales in Annuities, which was primarily seen in the particular individual annuity line, and to D&S, which reported higher premiums in the second quarter. This effect was mitigated by higher production in Credit Life and Individual Life through the bancassurance channel.

 

Net earned premiums increased +3.8% QoQ. This growth was driven by both the life insurance and P&C businesses. Life insurance registered growth in (i) Annuities, due to a decrease in underwriting reserves in line with the evolution of total premiums described above (ii) an increase in sales of Credit Life through the bancassurance channel and (iii) Group Life due to SCTR and Collective Life, which was attributable to policy renewals at mining companies. The P&C business registered an increase, which was primarily due to growth in the Medical Assistance and Personal Lines due to drop in provisions for unexpired risks, in line with a decrease in premiums that are billed annually.

 

In the YoY analysis, Total premiums decreased -1.1% primarily through the P&C business, mitigated by life insurance business. In the P&C business, the reduction is attributable to a decrease in the Commercial Lines, specifically in the fire segment (annual renewal with Petroperu and Unacem in 3Q18), and to Cars, where the decrease was mainly attributable to a drop in production. In life insurance business, the increase was attributable to higher premiums for the D&S lines, which was due to the fact that in January 2019, the company won two tranches of the tender process for SISCO IV contract4 (2019-2020) , which compares favorably with the single tranche under SISCO III (2017-2018); this was attenuated by a decrease in Annuities line.

 

Net earned premiums increased +14.2% YoY in the life insurance business, which was mainly attributable to: i) the D&S lines, due to an increase in premiums associated with SISCO IV and ii) Credit Life, due to an increase in sales in the bancassurance channel. In the P&C business, an increase in production was attributable to the Medical Assistance and Personal Lines.

 

In the YTD analysis, in 2019, net premiums increased +15.0% compared to 2018. This was primarily attributable to the life insurance business, where growth was driven by the D&S Lines (through the tranches won in the SISCO tender) and by Individual Life. In the P&C business, growth was attributable to Personal Lines, Medical Assistance and the Cars line.

6.2. Net claims

 

Net claims by business

(S/ millions)

 

 

Net claims increased +3.4% QoQ in the Life and P&C business. In life insurance, the increase was attributable to (i) Credit Life, due to an increase in reported cases through the alliance channel, (ii) Annuities, due to higher pension payments through individual annuity and (iii) Individual life, after more incurred but not reported reserves were set aside. In P&C, the increase was attributable to Medical Assistance after reserves were increased for comprehensive products and Personal Lines.

 

In the YoY analysis, net claims increased +23.2%. This was driven by both the Life and P&C businesses. The increase reported in life insurance was attributable to (i) D&S, after Pacifico won two tranches of the SISCO IV versus one tranche under SISCO III; (ii) Annuities, due to pension payments through the “Rental Flex “product and (iii) Credit Life, through the bancassurance and alliance channel. In P&C business growth was attributable to: i) the Medical Assistance line, given that reserves were released in 3Q18, ii) the Cars Line, which registered an increase in claims frequency for the SOAT product and iii) the Commercial Lines, due to claims readjustments in favor in 3Q18.

 

In the YTD analysis, net claims increased +26.7% due to growth in claims in the life insurance business through the D&S line, via SISCO IV; Annuities (“Renta Flex” and individual annuities products); and Credit Life, via the bancassurance channel. In the P&C business, the increase in the net claims was attributable to the Medical Assistance, Cars and Personal Lines.

The acquisition cost rose +2.8% QoQ. This was primarily due an increase in the acquisition cost for the Life insurance business and, to a lesser extent, to an increase in this line in the P&C business. Growth in the acquisition cost reported by the life insurance business was attributable to an increase in commissions reported for Credit Life, in line with an increase in production, and to Group life (specifically Collective Life and SCTR products) as well as Individual Life. This was attenuated by a release of provisions for uncollectible premiums in Group Life. In the P&C business, the increase in the acquisition cost was attributable to a decrease in the commissions received from reinsurers in the Commercial Lines.

 

In the YoY analysis, the acquisition cost decreased -2.2%. This was mainly attributable to the life insurance business and attenuated by P&C business. In the life business, the decrease in commissions was driven by a drop in production in Credit life through the alliances channel. In the P&C business, growth in the acquisition cost was due to the increase in commissions in Personal Lines, in line with higher production, and in the Cars and Commercial Lines, due to a decrease in commissions ceded.

 

In the YTD analysis, the acquisition cost decreased -5.2%. This was driven by a decrease in commissions in the Life insurance business, which was associated with the Credit Life line. The aforementioned was attenuated by an increase in the net underwriting expense in the P&C business, through Personal Lines, Cars and Commercial Lines, and in the life business, through the Individual Life line.

7.Operating Expenses and Efficiency

 

In the YoY and YTD analysis, the 40 bps improvement in the efficiency ratio was attributable to the fact that operating income grew at a faster pace than operating expenses. The increase in operating income was due primarily to growth in net interest income, which offset the increase in salaries and employee benefits.

 

Operating expenses  Quarter   % change   YTD   % change

(1) Since the 1Q19, the application of IFRS 16 is in effect, which corresponds to a greater depreciation for the asset for right-of-use". Likewise, the expenses related to the depreciation of improvements in building for rent is being reclassified to the item "Other expenses".

(2) The acquisition cost of Pacifico includes net fees and underwriting expenses.

(3) Operating expenses = Salaries and employee’s benefits + Administrative, general and tax expenses + Depreciation and amortization + Acquisition cost + Association in participation.

(4) Operating income = Net interest income + Fee income + Net gain on foreign exchange transactions + Net gain from associates + Net gain on derivatives held for trading + Result on exchange differences + Net premiums earned.

(5) Figures differ from previously reported, please consider the data presented on this report. Operating expenses / Operating income.

(6) Figures differ from previously reported, please consider the data presented on this report. Operating expenses / Average of Total Assets. Average is calculated with period-beginning and period-ending balances.

 

In the QoQ analysis, the deterioration in the efficiency ratio was due to seasonal effects on operating expenses; as such, the YoY analysis provides a clearer picture of the evolution of efficiency.

 

In the YoY analysis, a 40 bps increase is evident in the efficiency ratio. This took place in a context in which growth in operating income outpaced the expansion posted by operating expenses.

 

The figure below shows the impact generated by each item of income and operating expenses on the efficiency ratio:

 

YoY evolution of the efficiency ratio by account

 

 

 

(1) Other operating income includes: Net gain on foreign exchange transactions, Net gain from associates, Net gain on derivatives held for trading and Net gain from exchange difference.

(2) Other operating expenses includes: Acquisition cost and Association in participation

 

The analysis of the impact of operating income shows that the improvement in the efficiency ratio YoY was due to the following:

 

(i)Growth in net interest income, in line with the expansion of average daily loans balances in the vast majority of segments, as indicated in section 4.1. Interest income.

 

(ii)The increase in net earned premiums at Pacifico, which was generated by both the P&C line and life insurance, as we will explain in the section 6.1 Net earned premiums.

 

  37

 

 

(iii)The increase in fee income at BCP Stand-alone and, to a lesser extent, at BCP Bolivia and Mibanco, as indicated in in section 5.1.2 Income from commissions in the Banking Business.

 

The YoY increase in operating expenses reflects:

 

(i)An increase in salaries and employee benefits, mainly at Mibanco, and to a lesser extent at BCP Stand-alone and Credicorp Capital. In the case of Mibanco, the increase was due to growth in the sales force in 1Q19, in line with the strategy to build capacities to ensure future growth at Mibanco. At BCP, the increase was driven primarily by growth in fixed remuneration after new personnel with specialized knowledge were hired in 1H19, and although, to a lesser extent, to expansion in variable remuneration after productivity incentives were increased in Retail Banking. The increase in salaries and employee benefits at Credicorp Capital was attributable to an increase in the headcount, mainly in Peru and Chile.

 

(ii)The increase in the depreciation and amortization line. It is important to note that this line should be analyzed alongside administrative and general expenses given that under IFRS 16, leasing expenses, which were previously included in administrative and general expenses, are now reported in the depreciation line.

 

YTD, the efficiency ratio also improved 40 bps. This improvement was due to the same factors as those indicated in the YoY analysis. The figure below shows the impact of the variation that each account had on Credicorp’s efficiency ratio.

 

YTD evolution of the efficiency ratio by account

 

 

 

(1) Other operating income includes: Net gain on foreign exchange transactions, Net gain from associates, Net gain on derivatives held for trading and Net gain from exchange difference.

(1) Administrative, general and tax expenses differ from previously reported because BCP Bolivia has been included.

(2) Others include ASB, BCP Bolivia, Grupo Credito and eliminations for consolidation.

 

The QoQ increase in administrative and general expenses was mainly due to a seasonal effect. This effect is reflected in the Consultants line and is mainly attributable to transformation projects and more specifically, to digital issues at BCP Stand-alone.

 

The YoY analysis, which excludes the seasonal effect on operating expenses, shows a drop in expenses, mainly due to a decrease in expenses for systems Outsourcing and Leasing. This was attributable to the application of IRFS 16, which indicates that financial leasing expenses will not be included in administrative and general expenses and taxes. Now, a portion of systems outsourcing and leasing expenses (approximately 90%) are included in depreciation and amortization and the rest in financial expenses.

 

The aforementioned offset the increase in:

 

(i)Expenses for Consultants for the factors discussed in the QoQ analysis and to a lesser extent, the increase in Credicorp Capital due a project that aims to optimize the way in which support teams operate between countries.
  
(ii)An increase in Marketing, mainly at BCP Stand-alone due to an increase in expenses for the Latam Miles Program and for different advertising campaigns for Yape and the celebration of BCP’s 130 year anniversary and;
  
(iii)Higher expenses in our channels due to an increase in fee income, in line with growth in the volume of transfers at the national level and abroad, as indicated in chapter 5.1.2. Fee Income in the Banking Business.

 

In the YTD operating efficiency ratio there is a slight reduction in expenses, which is mainly attributable to the effect of IFRS 16, as indicated in the YoY analysis. The aforementioned offset the increase in Marketing and Channels, which was attributable to the same factors indicated in the YoY analysis.

(2) The efficiency ratio differs from previously reported, please consider the data presented on this report.

 

In the QoQ analysis, the deterioration in efficiency was attributable to seasonal effects on operating expenses; as such, the YoY analysis provides a clearer picture of the business result.

(2) Other operating expenses includes: Acquisition cost and Association in participation

 

The improvement in efficiency at Credicorp YoY was due to:

 

(i)Improvement at BCP Stand-alone, which was mainly attributable to an increase in interest income on loans, which was driven by loan growth YoY. The aforementioned offset the increase in operating expenses and;

 

(ii)Grupo Pacifico, which registered an improvement that was primarily attributable to an increase in operating income. This growth was mainly the result of expansion in net earned premiums (primarily in the Life business) and, to a lesser extent, to a reduction in the acquisition cost of this business line. It is important to note that growth in net earned premiums was attenuated by an increase in net claims, which are not included in operating expenses.

 

The aforementioned offset the deterioration in the efficiency ratio of (i) Mibanco, which was associated with growth in the sales force to increase long-term capacities and to the reduction in net interest income due to an uptick in competition and (ii) Credicorp Capital, due to an increase in expenses for salaries and employee benefits after the headcount was increased.

At the end of 3Q19, the BIS and Tier 1 Ratios at BCP Stand-alone increased QoQ to situate at 15.45% and 11.79% respectively. This was due to a +5.3% increase in total regulatory capital in a context in which total RWAs grew 1.9%.

 

Total regulatory capital fell QoQ due to an increase in subordinated debt corresponding to issuances made in the third quarter of the year. Total RWAs increased due to growth in Credit RWAs, which was primarily attributable to the effect of a 2.6% expansion QoQ in quarter-end loan balances.

 

In the YoY evolution, the BIS and Tier1 ratios registered an increase with regard to the levels posted in 3Q18. This result was generated in a context in which total regulatory capital and Tier 1 outpaced the expansion reported for Credit RWAs.

 

In the YoY evolution of total RWAs, Credit RWAs posted the highest growth, followed by growth in Market and Operational RWAs. The increase in Credit RWAs is attributable to a YoY expansion of 7.0% in quarter-end balances and to the incorporation of unutilized lines of credit in the calculation of RWAs as of 2019 (according to requirements set forth by the Peruvian regulating entity).

Finally, the Tier 1 Common Equity Ratio (CET1), which is considered the most rigorous ratio with which to measure capitalization levels, reported growth of +13 bps QoQ to situate at 11.95% at the end of 3Q19. This result was primarily due to a +2.5% increase in the CET1, in line with the quarter’s YTD results. In the YoY analysis, the CET1 ratio increased 34 bps in a context in which adjusted RWAs increase 8.4% and CET1, +11.6%.

9. Distribution channels

 

The distribution channels at BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and BCP Bolivia registered a total of 10,842 points of contact at the end of 3Q19. This level represents an increase of 170 points QoQ and an expansion of 496 YoY. Growth was due primarily to the expansion in Agentes BCP at BCP Stand-alone and, to a lesser extent, to growth at BCP Bolivia.

In QoQ terms BCP Stand-alone registered an increase of 117 in its total points of contacts, which situated at 9,279 at the end of 3Q19. Growth in points of contact was primarily due to an increase in the number of Agentes BCP, which expanded 111 points QoQ. This increase was attributable to the commercial strategy to increase the number of points of contact through cost-efficient channels. In line with this strategy, ATMs and Branches slightly grew +5 and +1 QoQ, respectively. Relative to ATM’s, grow was attributable to increase in new neutral points. Besides, the new branch was opened in Moquegua to cover customer demand and achieve more growth in this province.

 

In the YoY analysis, the points of contact at BCP Stand-alone increased 351 units, which was mainly due to growth in the number of Agentes BCP (+405 YoY). ATMs registered a reduction of 28 units, which was driven by a contraction in branches (down by 26). The aforementioned was attributable to the Transformation Strategy at BCP Stand-alone, where the goal is to ensure that 40% of our clients use digital and cost-efficient channels. BCP Stand-alone’s target is to register a total of 7,155 Agentes BCP at the end of 2019.

Total points of contact   9,370    9,604    9,721    117    351 

 

This quarter, the number of points of contact increased by 117. It is important to note that the most significant contribution to this growth was generated by new Agentes BCP in the provinces (+83 QoQ) and, to a lesser extent, in Lima (+28 QoQ). This is part of our focus to facilitate access to financial services for a growing number of clients at the provincial level.

 

Growth YoY (+351) in total points of contact was due primarily to an increase of 405 Agentes BCP, of which 34 were in Lima and 371 in the provinces. As mentioned, the expansion reported in this channel reflects the Transformation strategy at BCP Stand-alone, whose objective is to migrate clients to cost-efficient channels. This is aligned with a two-pronged goal that focuses on being closer to our current clients and providing the unserved population access to financial services. In this context, 92% of total growth was seen in Agentes at the provincial level.

This growth in Agentes offset the drop in the number of branches. This contraction was seen both in Lima (-16) and in the provinces (-10). The number of ATMs grew in Lima (1) but fell in the provinces (-29), where ATMs were removed from branches.

(1) Figures include monetary and non-monetary transactions.

 

In line with the increase in points of contact, the monthly average of transactions increased +10.2% QoQ and +39.2% YoY. In the QoQ analysis, the increase in transactions was seen across channels with the exception of Tellers, which fell 0.4%. It is important to note that in 3Q19, the largest increase in volume was attributable to Mobile Banking (+17.6% QoQ), which has become one of the main axes of the strategy to migrate our clients to digital channels. This channel’s share of total transactions has continued to increase significantly and is currently situated at 45.1% of total transactions.

 

The YoY analysis, which excludes the seasonal effect, registered an increase in the monthly transactions level that was mainly attributable to the increase in the volume generated by the following channels:

 

(i)        Mobile Banking (+94.6% YoY), which continued to follow an upward trend in its share of total transactions after operating improvements were rolled out for the mobile application “Banca Móvil BCP”.

 

(ii)       Agentes BCP (+26.1% YoY), which was mainly attributable to transactional growth in deposits and withdrawals. An increase was registered in this channel in domestic wire transfers, issuances, waivers and balance inquiries. The aforementioned was in line with growth in the number of savings accounts opened and in Agentes BCP (+40% YoY).

 

(iii)      Points of sale P.O.S (+25.3% YoY), where the increase was driven mainly by growth in the penetration level of VISANET and in client consumption levels.

 

The aforementioned three points offset the decrease in the transactions volume posted for Internet Banking Vía BCP (-16.5%), which continued to register a drop in its share of total transactions (7.7% 3Q19 vs 12.9% 3Q18). The transactions in traditional channels continued to fall YoY: (i) Tellers (-4.8%) and (ii) Telephone Banking (-1.9%) because multiple functions are available through mobile banking. Additionally, efforts continue to implement digital platforms at the Branch level so that clients can autonomously check balances, open savings accounts and collect debit cards.

 

Growth in banking’s transactional level in the region is expected to be driven primarily by digital channels. As such, growth in the transactions volume will be generated mainly by Mobile Banking and Internet Banking, in line with the objective to develop an efficient and profitable network of client service channels. It is important to note the increase in the use of the application Yape, which posted a level of 1.5 million users in 3Q19.

(1) Figures differ than previously reported.

 

BCP Bolivia has increased its number of points of contact (+53 QoQ) in 3Q19. This was driven by the entry of new Agentes BCP (+50 QoQ), in line with a growth strategy to open 450 Agentes by year-end.

 

The total number of points of contact continued to grow YoY (+147), which was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of Agentes BCP and, to a lesser extent through ATMs (+25) and branches (+2). ATMs growth was mainly attributable to the increase in branches. Besides, branch openings were essential to cover the growing unserved clients in the country. One of these branches was opened as a new format office called “Café BCP”, in which customers are within a digital and environment focused to achieve a better customer experience, in line with the banking products and services’ trends.

The number of points of contact at Mibanco remained stable QoQ. In the YoY analysis a contraction of -2 points is evident. This was due to branch closings at the Banco de la Nacion. It is important to note that Mibanco has an agreement with Banco de la Nacion that allows it to use the latter’s branch space to reduce operating costs. At the end of 3Q19, these offices represented 11% (35 branches) of the total of 324 branches.

10.2. Main Economic Variables

 

Economic Activity – GDP (% change YoY)

 

 

 

  48

 

 

Our estimates suggest GDP grew around 3.3% YoY in 3Q19 (2Q19: 1.2%), the higher growth rate of the year. The performance of the quarter is explained by the recovery of the primary sectors, which expanded 2.5% YoY after the 4.2% YoY contraction on 2Q19. Particularly, primary resource manufacturing stood out (in Jul/Aug-19 it grew 10% YoY after a 18% YoY decline on 2Q19). On the other hand, non-primary sectors slightly accelerated to 3.4% YoY (2Q19: 2.9%). The expansion on non-primary sectors was underpinned by the advance of the services sectors (in Jul/Aug-19 they grew 3.8% YoY, similar to the 3.5% YoY expansion of the 2Q19).

 

Inflation and Monetary Policy rate (%)

 

 

 

Headline inflation closed 3Q19 at 1.9% YoY (2Q19: 2.3%) and stood below the midpoint of the target range of the Central Bank (1%-3%) for the first time in a year. On the other hand, core inflation stood at 2.2% YoY (2Q19: 2.3%); core inflation accumulates 1.68% for Jan/Sep-19 period, the lowest level for such period in seven years.

 

During the 3Q19, the Central Bank lowered its reference rate in 25pbs from 2.75% to 2.50%, the first cut in year-and-a-half. After making the cut on August, the Central Bank claimed that “this decision doesn’t necessarily imply additional rate reductions”. However, this statement was then secluded from the official statement on later meetings. Hence, the Central Bank’s Board considered appropriate to maintain the expansive monetary policy stance, and it remains vigilant for new information regarding inflation and its determinants, to evaluate additional adjustments to its stance. It’s important to remark that in the Inflation Report of September 2019, the Central Bank highlighted a downside bias for its inflation forecast due to a potentially lower-than-expected-growth of domestic demand.

 

Fiscal Result and Current Account Balance (% of GDP, Quarter)

 

 

 

In 3Q19 the annualized fiscal deficit represented 1.6% of GDP (2Q19: 1.5%), around its lowest level since 2015. The fiscal deficit remained relatively stable under a context of lower fiscal revenues (from 19.8% of GDP in 2Q19 to 19.6% in 3Q19) while the non-financial general government spending represented 20.0% of GDP (2Q19: 20.1%). In 3Q19, public investment of the general government decreased 4.4% YoY (2Q19: +7.9%), by which it declined 2.4% YTD.

 

  49

 

 

In Jan/Aug-19, the trade balance adds up a surplus of USD 3,137 million, which is 34% below the same period of last year. Hence, exports decrease 6.8% YoY in the same period due to lower traditional exports (-9.9%, copper: -11.6%), while non-traditional exports advanced 1.9% YoY (agro-exports: +5.3%). It is worth noticing that the contraction of total exports so far this year is mainly explained by a price effect. In contrast, imports fell 2.1% YoY in the same period, although capital goods imports grew by 5.1% YoY. Lastly, on Aug-19, the terms of trade advanced 3.0% YoY after almost a year of consecutive contraction.

 

Exchange rate (S/ per US$)

 

 

 

In 3Q19, the exchange rate closed at USDPEN 3.383, which means that the Peruvian Sol depreciated 2.9% compared to 2Q19 (USDPEN 3.287). In the third quarter of the year, periods of high volatility were observed due to the international environment amid trade tensions between US and the rest of the world, and to a lesser extent due to the local political context.

 

In 3Q19, all currencies of the region depreciated: Colombian Peso (8.3%), Brazilian Real (8.0%), Chilean Peso (7.4%) y Mexican Peso (2.7%). On other hand, during 3Q19 the Central Bank did not intervene in the spot FX market, and issued FX Swaps (short position in USD) for PEN 2,400 million during August (during August the exchange rate escalated up to USDPEN 3.40). Lastly, Net International Reserves (NIR) stood at USD 67,680 million, which implied an advanced of USD 1,347 million compared to 2Q19 and USD 7,739 million so far this year.

From 1Q15 and on, Grupo Pacifico’s financial statements reflect the association with Banmedica. This partnership includes:

 

(i)        the private health insurance business, which is managed by Grupo Pacifico and incorporated in each line of Grupo Pacifico’s financial statements;

 

(ii)       corporate health insurance for payroll employees; and

 

(iii)      medical services.

 

The businesses described in ii) and iii) are managed by Banmedica, therefore they do not consolidate in Grupo Pacifico’s financial statements. The 50% of net income generated by Banmedica is recorded in Grupo Pacifico’s Income Statement as a gain/loss on investments in subsidiaries.

 

As explained before, corporate health insurance and medical services businesses are consolidated by Banmedica. The following table reflects the consolidated results from which Grupo Pacifico receives the 50% net income.
