Operating and Financial Highlights
Credicorp Ltd. Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial and Operating Results

ROAE of 19.6% Driven by Growth Across Our Four Businesses Lines
Delivering on Our Commitment to Drive Sustainable, Profitable Growth, Accelerating Investments in Our Digital Transformation, and Strengthening Ability to Attract and Retain the Best Talent
Lima, Peru – November 03, 2022 – Credicorp Ltd. (“Credicorp” or “the Company”) (NYSE: BAP | BVL: BAP), the leading financial services holding company in Peru with presence in Chile, Colombia, Bolivia and Panama reported its unaudited results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, today. Financial results are expressed in Soles and are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
3Q22 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS


Net Income attributable to Credicorp increased 16.1% QoQ and 11.9% YoY to S/1,302 million driven by growth across our four business lines. ROAE increased to 19.6% over the quarter, up from 18.5% in 3Q21, and reaching 17.7% in 9M22.

Structural Loans up 5.2% QoQ (+4.3% FX Neutral) and 10.3% YoY (+12.6% FX Neutral) in average daily balances.

Total Deposits reached S/152,792 million reflecting an increase of 1.6% QoQ and 2.1% YoY on an FX Neutral basis, driven mainly by growth in Time Deposits in a context of high interest rates, and by focus on bolstering the share of Deposits in our funding structure. Low-cost Deposits accounted for 55.9% of Total Funding.

The Structural NPL ratio decreased 13bps to 4.92% QoQ, reflecting the increase in structural loans and the drop in the NPL resulting from higher write-off during the quarter.


Structural Provisions rose 35.1% QoQ over an unusually low base. This reflects an increase in our incursion in higher yield segments at BCP, and in SME-Pymes in particular. The aforementioned was partially offset by lower provisions at Mibanco which reflected one-time methodological improvements. The Structural Cost of Risk stood at 1.44%. The Structural Allowance for Loan Losses accounted for 5.6% of Structural Loans while Structural NPL Coverage stood at 113.3%; both continue to trend downward towards pre-pandemic levels.

Core Income rose 17.5% YoY, driven mainly by increases of 22.5% in Net Interest Income (NII), 6.6% in Fees, and 6.3% in Gains on FX Transactions. On a quarter-over quarter basis, Core Income increased 6.8%, supported by growth of 9.5% in Net Interest Income (NII) and 1.5% in Fees; this evolution was partially offset by a 2.6% drop in Gains on FX Transactions.

The Insurance Underwriting Result increased 45.1% QoQ and 183.2% AaA. This evolution was driven by an increase in net earned premiums and a decrease in claims in the Life business

Efficiency Ratio improved 80bps YTD and stood at 43.9% in September. Growth in core income at BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, offset the higher expenses related to personnel, IT, transactional costs, and investments in digital transformation and disruptive initiatives.

Solid Capital base, with the CET1 Ratio increasing YoY by 63bps to 11.8% at BCP Stand Alone, and 90bps to 16.0% at Mibanco. At BAP, Regulatory Capital stood at 1.45 times the regulatory requirement.

Sustained Progress Executing Against Strategic Initiatives: i) BCP Stand-alone digital clients accounted for 63% of total BCP retail clients at quarter-end, up from 58% as of June 2022; and ii) over 247 thousand individuals were financially included through Yape in 3Q22.

Summary of Financial Performance and Outlook

Loans (in Average Daily Balances)
Structural loans, measured in ADB, rose 5.2% QoQ (4.3% FX neutral) to stand at S/137,298 million. This evolution was driven primarily by Wholesale Banking and Consumer at BCP. The quarterly result was also positively affected by Mibanco, as sales through relationship managers registered higher levels of productivity.
YoY, structural growth stood at 10.3% (12.6% FX neutral). This trajectory was primarily driven by Consumer and SME-Pyme, in line with an uptick in consumption in a context of economic reactivation, and by Mibanco, due to improvements through the hybrid model.
As of the 3Q22, government program loans (GP) represent 9% of the total portfolio measured in average daily balances (8% at quarter-end).

Deposits
Our deposit base measured in quarter-end balances rose 1.6% QoQ (FX Neutral). Growth was driven primarily by an uptick in Time Deposits at BCP Stand-alone, mainly in FC, in a context marked by rising rates and exchange rate uncertainty. This result was also impacted by growth in Time Deposits in LC at BCP.
In the YoY comparison, the deposit base increased 2.1% (FX Neutral). Growth was fueled mainly by an upswing in Time Deposit volumes, which reflected fund migration from low-cost deposits to Time Deposits at BCP in a framework of rising rates. ASB, which reported an increase in fund flows from Peru due to the political-economic juncture, also contributed to this dynamic.

Net interest income (NII) and Margin (NIM)
NII rose 9.5% to S/3,001 million, driven by an uptick in the margin. This evolution reflected the fact that growth in our IEA yield outpaced the upswing in the funding cost (both in LC and FC). NIM rose 41bps to stand at 5.3%. The result this quarter was also impacted by growth in average IEA (+1.2%).
YoY, NII rose 22.5%, driven by strong growth in structural loans and by a context marked by higher rates in both LC and FC.

Summary of Financial Performance and Outlook

Structural Portfolio Quality and Cost of Risk (CofR)
QoQ, the balance of structural NPL loans fell 0.1% after the volume of write-offs outstripped the volume registered for new entrants to the NPL portfolio. The volume of new entrants to the NPL portfolio was concentrated in the following segments: (i) SMEs-Pyme, due to penetration of higher risk segments, (ii) Individuals, mainly in consumer loans, and (iii) Wholesale Banking, due to refinancing in the retail and tourism sectors. The structural NPL ratio stood at 4.92% (-13bps) at the end of 3Q22.
YoY, the structural NPL portfolio increased 4.6%, driven by the aforementioned dynamics in the SME-Pyme and Wholesale Banking segments at BCP. It is important to note that growth in the NPL portfolio at BCP was attenuated by a drop in NPL volumes at Mibanco.
The structural CofR rose 35bps QoQ. This result was spurred by an uptick in provisions driven by: (i) the growth in penetration of higher yield and higher risk SME-Pyme segments; and (ii) a low base effect, particularly within the SME-Pyme segment.  The structural CofR stood at 1.44% this quarter.
YoY, a significant increase was reported in the structural CofR (+90bps) given that the provisions level registered in 3Q21 was extraordinarily low. Growth in provisions for Consumer Loans, Wholesale Banking and SME-Pyme was noteworthy. YTD, the CofR remained relatively stable, standing at 0.95%.
The structural NPL coverage ratio continues to trend back to pre-pandemic levels and stood at 113%.

Summary of Financial Performance and Outlook

Other income
Other Core income (Fees + Gains on FX transactions) increased 0.6% QoQ and 6.5% YoY. This evolution was driven by growth in fee income at BCP, which was associated with an uptick in transactions through digital venues and POS.
Other non-core income increased significantly QoQ due to a drop in the Net Loss on Securities. In YoY terms, the drop in Other Non-Core Income was associated with Net Losses on Securities due to the devaluation of the fixed income portfolio at different subsidiaries (which reflects rising interest rates).
Insurance Underwriting Result
The insurance underwriting result increased 45.1% QoQ. This evolution was driven by an increase in net earned premiums in the Life business, which was led by Credit Life and Group Life. The result was also impacted by the decrease registered in Life claims following an improvement in sanitary conditions. In YoY terms the insurance underwriting result rose 183.2%, spurred by the same dynamics responsible for the QoQ evolution.

Efficiency
The Efficiency Ratio improved 180bps QoQ and 330bps YoY to stand at 42.8%. This evolution as in line with solid growth in core income at BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco. YTD, the efficiency ratio stood at 43.9%, which represented an improvement of 80bps with regard to the figure reported for the first 9 months of last year. If we exclude expenses related to disruptive initiatives, the YoY improvement in the YTD efficiency ratio is 200bps to stand at 41.3%.

Summary of Financial Performance and Outlook

Universal Banking

The improvement in YoY profitability at BCP was driven by Core Income, specifically Net Interest Income. Strong structural loan origination, along with a disciplined repricing strategy, spurred this growth. This evolution was partially offset by an uptick in provisions.

Insurance and Pensions

Pacifico Seguros reported a substantial improvement in profitability due to growth in net earned premiums, which was driven primarily by the Bancassurance channel, and to a drop in claims in Life, which reflects an improvement in the sanitary situation.

Microfinance

Mibanco continued to register solid performance. This trajectory was fueled by the positive dynamics of NII, which reflected effective pricing policies, and by lower provisions.  The hybrid model continued to generate improvements in our relationship managers’ productivity.

Investment Banking and
  Wealth Management

This business continued to be challenged by the current context. Asset Management and Wealth Management continued to feel the effects generated by fund outflows in 2021


























Outlook

We continue to expect a ROE around 17.5% for the full year figure. Current loan dynamics in a context of high inflation and interest rate hikes lead us to expect that the Net Interest Margin and Cost of Risk figures will situate near the upper end of the guidance range.

Credicorp’s Strategy Update

Integrating sustainability in our businesses

For more information on our sustainability strategy, program and initiatives, please review our “2020-25 Sustainability Strategy” and our “2021 Annual and Sustainability Report”.

The milestones hit in the third quarter of 2022 in the framework of the Sustainability Program include:
Governance Front – Roll-out of our renewed code of ethics and our latest recognitions
GenÉTICA Credicorp, our renewed Code of Ethics, acts as a guide for the organization and provides information on the principles, values and expectations that anchor our decisions. This new code places more emphasis on relations with our stakeholders (employees, clients, suppliers, shareholders and community) and provides illustrative examples to address the recurring situations that employees experience during the course of our business operations. In the month of August, a campaign was rolled out to disseminate the Code group-wide by means of different communications tools and internal education initiatives. At the end of 3Q22, more than 1,000 employees participated in on-site activities; 13,000+ in livestreamed sessions; and the web document: Code of Ethics was visualized 10,800+ times.
The “2022 Latin American Executive Team Rankings”, which are built by the Institutional Investor magazine recognized Credicorp’s ESG program as the best in Peru.
Environmental Front– Driving environmental sustainability through the financial sector

BCP granted 3 certified green loans for more than US$115 million to companies in the electricity generation and manufacturing industries for renewable energy projects and recyclable products respectively.

Credicorp Capital and Prima AFP continue to develop relations with their portfolios’ prioritized issuers to promote sustainable practices in the companies we invest. Under CDP’s “Non-Disclosure Campaign, Credicorp Capital instigated 6 issuers to begin reporting under CDP standards. This campaign seeks to ensure more transparency regarding issuers’ management of and contributions to climate change, deforestation and water security.

Prima AFP published its Reporte de Inversiones responsables 2022, which covers the company’s main advances in integrating ESG factors in the analysis of investments and provides information on its strategy. As of today, 62% of Prima’s investment portfolio is analyzed considering ESG factors and we expect to reach the 80% mark by the end of 2022.

Within the enabler to manage ESG risks, the Sustainable Operations Committee was set up to review credit operations that have potential to be sustainable and approve categorization. On this front, we continue to work on implementing the group-wide exclusions of economic activities, update the ESG questionnaires that portfolio companies are required to complete and strengthen our taxonomy. These efforts will help us identify more sustainable opportunities.

Social Front – Expanding financial inclusion and helping businesses grow

Credicorp published the second edition of its financial inclusion index: Credicorp Financial Inclusion Index 2022” which is developed by IPSOS Perú to measure the level of access, use and perceived quality of the financial system in 8 Latam countries. This year’s report included Argentina.

As of September 2022, Yape has propitiated the financial inclusion of more than 2.1 million people and launched microcredits through this platform. Mibanco, through its microfinance role, has included more than 660 thousand entrepreneurs in the financial system in the last seven years.

By the end of 3Q22, BCP had disbursed more than S/1,000 million to the SME-Pyme segment through invoice discounting. This product leverages the power of electronic invoicing and has benefitted more than 1,000 businesses, 85% of which were not previously subjects of credit.

Mibanco reinserted 878 clients through its program “A-morosos”, which seeks to reincorporate individuals with debt over 120 days past-due within the financial system.

Yevo, the online ecosystem for entrepreneurs operated by Mibanco, topped the 150k mark for affiliates.

BCP Bolivia registered the highest rating in the Bolivian financial system in the ranking “Responsabilidad Social Empresarial de AESA”(Fitch Ratings).

Earnings Release 3Q / 2022
Analysis of 3Q22 Consolidated Results
   
01 Loan Portfolio
     
 
Structural loans increased QoQ, led by the evolution in Corporate Banking, Consumer and Mortgages at BCP Stand-alone, which rolled out campaigns for Working Capital; made product improvements; and experienced a decrease in prepayments, respectively. Mibanco continues to grow but at a slower pace due to a more prudent approach to lending. YoY, growth in structural loans was concentrated in Retail Banking and Mibanco in a context of economic reactivation.
 
The Structural NPL ratio decreased QoQ as a result of the increase in structural loans and the drop in the IOL portfolio due to an increase in write-offs this quarter.

 For consolidation purposes, Loans generated in Foreign Currency (FC) are converted to Local Currency (LC).

 (1) Includes Work out unit, and other banking. For Quarter-end Balances figures, please refer to “12. Annexes – 12.2 Loan Portfolio Quality”.
 (2) Structural Portfolio excludes the Loans offered through Reactiva Peru and FAE-Mype Government Programs (GP).

(3) Internal Management Figures

QoQ, if we exclude the exchange rate effect (USDPEN: +4.1%), loans increased 4.3%. Growth was driven primarily by:


Wholesale Banking, which registered growth in short term transactions in both Foreign Currency (FC) and Local Currency (LC) in the Corporate Banking segment and secondarily, Middle Market Banking, via an uptick in financing for working capital.


An uptick in Consumer, after improvements were made to the Credito Efectivo to satisfy the needs of digital clients and initiatives were rolled out to capture clients from the competition through debt purchase offers via traditional channels.

SME-Business, driven by working capital loans growth due to growth in working capital loans after clients paid off Reactiva loans.


Mortgage, given that a lower level of prepayments this quarter offset the drop in disbursements generated by an increase in market rates.


An increase in SME-Pyme, which registered growth among the smallest clients in the portfolio (loans <90 thousand soles). The higher level of risk in this segment is offset by higher rates.


An uptick in Mibanco, due to growth in sales by Relationship Managers, who reported higher levels of productivity (levels increased to 15.4 operations per month in 3Q22 versus 14.3 in 2Q22).

Earnings Release 3Q / 2022
Analysis of 3Q22 Consolidated Results
   
01. Loan Portfolio

YoY, if we exclude the exchange rate effect (USDPEN: -3.7%), loans grew 12.6%. Growth was driven primarily by:


Wholesale Banking, where the Corporate and Middle Market segments reported growth, which reflected an increase in needs for Working Capital and a base effect in 3Q21, when some clients amortized their debt. It is important to note that the MS of Wholesale Banking has increased 36bps since the beginning of the year.

Retail Banking at BCP, where the Consumer segment and SME-Pyme led expansion followed by the Mortgage and Credit Card segments. These dynamics were driven by an upswing in consumption due to economic reactivation.

Mibanco, where disbursements rose after the hybrid model facilitated centralized assessment and led to improvements in distribution channels. At the end of September 22, disbursements through leads (centralized assessment) represented 74.3% of total disbursements vs 70.0% in September 21. It is important to note the sustained growth in the average disbursement ticket, which was driven by an uptick in leads to clients with better risk profiles.
 
Government Program Loans (in Average Daily Balances – S/ millions)

Government program loans dropped 15.5% QoQ and 39.1% YoY in average daily balances due to amortizations in Middle Market Banking and in SME Business at BCP Stand-alone.

It is important to note that GP loans in quarter-end balances represented 8% of total loans (vs 10% in Jun22 and 14% in Sep21).

The term for total amortization of GP loans in the Wholesale Banking, Retail Banking and Mibanco portfolios expires, on average, in 1.2, 1.6 and 2.7 years respectively.

At the end of September 2022, the dollarization level of structural loans increased 112bps QoQ (37.1% in September 22). This evolution was primarily driven by the uptick in FC disbursements in Wholesale Banking (whose share in FC grew 100bps QoQ) and by the variation in the exchange rate, which impacted Wholesale Banking and SME Business at BCP Stand-alone in particular. The LC portfolio grew 3.9%, led by Corporate Banking and Consumer.

YoY, the dollarization level of the structural portfolio dropped (-332pbs) given that growth in LC loans (+16.4%) outpaced the expansion in FC (+5.6%). The increase registered in LC was led by Consumer, SME-Pyme and Corporate Banking at BCP Stand-alone and driven by economic reactivation and moves to penetrate new segments. In FC, growth was spurred by Wholesale Banking.

Evolution of the Dollarization Level of Structural Loans (in Average Daily Balances)*

(1) The FC share of Credicorp’s loan portfolio is calculated including BCP Bolivia and ASB Bank Corp., however the chart shows only the loan books of BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco.
(2) The year with the historic maximum level of dollarization for Wholesale Banking was 2012, for Mibanco was 2016, for Credit Card was in 2021 and for the rest of segments was 2009.
* For dollarization figures in quarter-end period, please refer to “12. Annexes – 12.2 Loan Portfolio Quality

Loan Evolution in Quarter-end Balances

Structural loans grew 2.5% QoQ in quarter-end balances. If we exclude the increase in the exchange rate, structural loans rose 1.0% QoQ, which was attributable to Wholesale Banking, Consumer and Mortgage at BCP Stand-alone and driven by the same factors as those outlined in the analysis of average daily balances. If we include the contraction in the GP portfolio in the analysis, total loans rose 0.7% QoQ (-0.7% if we isolate the exchange rate effect).

In YoY terms, structural loans increased 10.8%. If we exclude the exchange rate effect, structural loans rose 12.4%, driven by the same segments that drove QoQ growth. If we incorporate the drop in the GP portfolio in the analysis, total loans grew 3.3% YoY.

The volume of the structural NPL portfolio fell QoQ by -0.1%. Growth in new entrants to the NPL portfolio in SME-Pyme, Individuals and Wholesale segment was offset by write-offs in the SME-Pyme segments, Individuals and Mibanco this quarter. YoY, the structural NPL portfolio grew 4.6% due to an increase in overdue loans in SME-Pyme and in refinanced loans in Wholesale Banking. The aforementioned was partially offset by a drop in the IOL portfolio at Mibanco. In the aforementioned context, the structural NPL ratio stood at 4.92%.
Structural NPL Ratio

In the QoQ analysis, the segments that contributed to the reduction in structural NPL loans were:


Small and Medium Businesses, where growth in new entrants to the NPL portfolio was offset by the expansion in write-offs this quarter (for more information, see the section on Structural write-offs). Growth in NPLs was driven by SME-Pyme after higher-risk segments were penetrated (debt below S/90,000). In these segments, higher risk was offset by higher interest rates. The deterioration in risk remains within our risk appetite for this segment.

Individuals, within this segment, similar to the situation in SME-Pyme, growth in new entrants to the NPL portfolio was offset by write-offs this quarter, mainly in Consumer (for more information, see the Section on Structural Write-offs).

Earnings Release 3Q / 2022
Analysis of 3Q22 Consolidated Results
   
01. Loan Portfolio

The reduction in NPLs was partially attenuated by growth in the refinanced portfolio in Wholesale Banking. Refinancing was concentrated within specific clients in the real estate sector (building and office leasing) and tourism (hotels), mainly in Middle Market Banking, which were severely impacted by the pandemic and had been offered debt refinancing facilities. It is important to note that this increase is in line with expectations and reflects the real delinquency levels of clients now that restrictions on loan progression to later stages of delinquency have been lifted and more clients find themselves in need of refinancing.

In the YoY analysis, growth in NPLs was attributable to:


Small and Medium Companies:  The deterioration of this portfolio was attributable primarily to the SME-Pyme segment and was driven by the same factors as those outlined for the QoQ evolution.

Wholesale: Growth in the refinanced portfolio corresponds to the same factors that drove the QoQ variation.

Growth in the NPL portfolio was attenuated by a reduction in NPLS at Mibanco, which was generated by a base effect in 3Q21 after grace periods for reprogrammed loans expired and loans fell delinquent. 

Structural write-offs (in quarter-end balances – S/ thousands)

QoQ, growth in structural loans (+103%) was attributable to:


Small and Medium businesses after regulatory restrictions were lifted on write-offs of structural loans held by clients that possess both a structural loan and Reactiva loans. This quarter marked the first wave of write-offs and the trend is expected to continue.

Mibanco, after a review of the under legal recovery portfolio determined that a larger portion of this portfolio could be written-off.

Consumer, where a review of regulations found that a portion of the loans under legal recovery with guarantees could be written-off.
 
 
YoY growth in NPLS was driven by an uptick in write-offs in small and medium businesses, for the same reasons outlined in the QoQ explanation.

Coverage Ratio of Structural NPL Loans

QoQ, the reduction in the NPL coverage ratio was attributable to growth in delinquency in the SME-Pyme segments and Individuals and in refinanced loans in Wholesale Banking.

YoY, the downward trend was attributable to growth in the NPL portfolio. The trend was also fueled by BCP Bolivia, given that reserves have been released due to better-than-expected payment behavior.

NPL loans in the Government Loan Portfolio (in quarter-end balances– S/ thousands)

QoQ, NPL loans in the GP portfolio increased due to the expiration of grace periods for reprogrammed loans, where payment capacities were impaired by an adverse economic climate.

For loans that are more than 90 days overdue, honoring processes have begun to execute State guarantees. Average guarantees cover 84%, 91% and 97% of Wholesale Banking, Retail Banking and Mibanco respectively.

02 Deposits
     
 
At the end of 3Q22, 71.1% of total deposits were low-cost, which represents a competitive advantage in a context of rising interest rates. In YoY terms, low-cost deposits decreased 4.1% (at a constant exchange rate). This drop was driven mainly by a reduction in demand deposits held by companies that amortized GP loans. Severance Indemnity Deposits dropped 19.0% (at a constant exchange rate) after restrictions on fund withdrawals were lifted.
Time Deposits, which received an inflow of funds from low-cost deposits as clients moved to take advantage of higher interest rates, registered an upward trend.
 
At the end of August 2022, BCP Stand-alone + Mibanco’s market share stood at 35.7% (+44bps with regard to Sept 21). This improvement was spurred mainly by growth in the MS of Time Deposits in a context of higher rates.

Our deposit base increased 3.6% QoQ. If we isolate the exchange rate effect, growth stood at 1.6%. The following dynamics were noteworthy:


7.3% growth in Time Deposits, which driven primarily by FC deposits at BCP Stand-alone after the bank captured more funds in a context marked by rate increases and exchange rate volatility.

1.7% in Demand Deposits, which reflected an uptick in LC deposits, in part after clients deposited funds from pension fund withdrawals. This dynamic was partially offset by a drop in FC deposits, which fell despite an uptick in the exchange rate.

1.4% reduction in Savings Deposits, which was fueled by the exchange rate effect. Additionally, fund migration from FC to LC was significant.

11.0% decrease in Severance Deposits after restrictions on fund withdrawals were lifted. It is important to note that these funds will be available until the end of 2023.
Low-cost deposits (Demand + savings) accounted for 71.1% of total deposits, which represents a drop of 1.1%  QoQ.
In the YoY analysis, deposits rose 0.2%. If we isolate the exchange rate effect, deposits grew 2.1%. The following dynamics were in play this quarter:

A 27.2% increase in Time Deposits, which was primarily driven by a migration of funds from low-cost to time deposits at BCP Stand-alone due to an increase in rates. The evolution at ASB, which received fund inflows from Peru in a context marked by political-economic uncertainty, also contributed to the upward trend in time deposits.

3.2% growth in Savings Deposits, which reflects captures of savings in FC; the aforementioned was partially offset by outflows of funds in LC.

A 10.7% reduction in Demand Deposits in both currencies, which was primarily driven by movements in company accounts after clients used funds to amortize Reactiva loans and cover other needs for liquidity.

A 19.0% drop in Severance Deposits, after restrictions on withdrawals were lifted.

Dollarization Level of Deposits
Deposits by currency
(measured in quarter-end balances)

At the end of September 2022, the dollarization level of Total Deposits fell 1.6 p.p. QoQ (-2.6 p.p. if we exclude the exchange rate effect). This dynamic was attributable to Demand demands after clients in BCP Stand-alone deposited funds from pension fund withdrawals accounts in LC. This was partially offset by growth in FC Time Deposits.

In YoY terms, the dollarization level fell 0.5 p.p. This decrease occurred despite growth in the FC deposit volume (+6.3% at a constant rate of exchange) and was fueled by a drop in the exchange rate (-3.7% YoY), which registered a peak in September 2021. It is important to note that LC deposits rose 1.2% over the period.

At the end of August 2022, the MS in Total Deposits at BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco stood at 33.3% and 2.4% (+30bps and +14bps with regard to September 2021) respectively.
At BCP Stand-alone, growth in Time Deposit’s share of total deposits (+250bps), which was driven be commercial efforts to bolster the ranks of Deposits in our funding structure. BCP reported a decrease in the share of Demand Deposits, which reflected moves by businesses to amortize loans from Reactiva, where the bank was the major source of lending.
It is important to note that BCP continues to hold the highest market share of low-cost deposits in the Peruvian financial system, with an MS of 40.6% at the end of August 2022 (+0.9% with regard to September 2021).

03 Interest-earning assets (“IEA”) and Funding
     
 
At the end of 3Q22, IEA rose 3.4% QoQ. This growth was driven primarily by an increase in Cash and Due from Banks and Investments and secondarily, by an uptick in Loans. Higher balances for liquid assets reflect growth of 3.5% in the funding base, which was led by growth in captures of deposits and bank financing. YoY, IEAs fell 1.9%, which was attributable to a decrease in balances of Cash and Due from Banks and Investments after the drop in system-wide liquidity and the use of funds to finance loan growth. Funding decreased 2.6%, which reflected a decrease in BCRP instruments due to amortizations of Government Loan programs (GP).
 
If we isolate the exchange rate effect, structural loans rise 1.0% QoQ, driven primarily by wholesale loans at BCP. YoY, the increase stands at 12.4%, which reflects economic recovery post-pandemic.

QoQ, IEA increased 3.4%. Growth was driven by an uptick in Cash and Due from Banks, Investments and structural loans.

Significant growth in Cash and Due from Banks was attributable to an increase in the funding base at BCP and Mibanco. The majority of these funds are held in BCRP accounts, which generate returns. Investments increased 3.3% over the same period, in line with growth in IEA.

Loan levels remained stable in a context of mixed dynamics. The positive impetus provided by an uptick in the US Dollar was offset by the amortization of government program (GP) loans. Structural loans increased 2.5% (1.0%, excluding the exchange rate effect), driven primarily by short-term loans in the wholesale portfolio.

YoY, IEA fell 1.9% due to a drop in balances of Cash and Due from Banks and Investments, which was partially offset by Loan growth.  Cash and Due from Banks decreased this quarter due to: (i) a reduction in liquidity levels in the banking system following amortizations of GP loans and (ii) the use of liquid funds to finance Loan growth. It is important to note that structural loans increased 10.8% (12.4% excluding the exchange rate effect), which reflects economic recovery post-pandemic. GP loans fell 41.5%.

04 Net Interest Income (NII)

     
 
In 3Q22, Net Interest Income continued to recover. This evolution was primarily driven by the increase in market rates and disciplined pricing management. It is important to note that the volume dynamics described in the section on IEAs generated a higher-yield mix where liquid assets with lower rates continue to fall and structural loans are on the rise. These factors offset the negative effect generated by an increase in the cost of funds in a context marked by growth in passive interest rates and expansion in expensive funding sources. Notwithstanding, at the end of 3Q22, low-cost deposits constituted 55.9% of the funding structure.
In this context, in the 3Q22, the Net interest margin rose 41bps QoQ and 108bps YoY to stand at 5.31% while the Structural Net Interest Margin stood at 5.58% (+40bps QoQ, +105bps YoY).

Net Interest Income grew 9.5% QoQ and 22.5% YoY this quarter and 20.2% YTD at the end of September, driven by the fact that growth in income outstripped the expansion in expenses in an environment marked by rising interest rates. Structural loans continued to evolve positively while liquidity fell, which reflects amortizations of GP loans. Growth in interest income offset an uptick in interest expenses due to rate hikes and growth in more costly funding sources. In this context, NIM rose 41bps QoQ, 108bps YoY and 78bps YTD in 3Q22 to stand at 5.31% in 3Q22 and 4.78% in the first nine months of 2022.

For more information on income and interest expenses by item, please see annex 12.3.

Net interest margin

Structural NIM accelerated its pace of recovery due to the positive price effect generated by rising rates and active yield management in our business segments. The factors that drove the NIM dynamic also spurred the evolution of risk-adjusted NIM, which reached pre-pandemic levels and stood at 4.50% this quarter.

To analyze the evolution of Net Interest Income, it is important to differentiate dynamics by currency given that trends for volumes and variations in market rates are different for each. The LC reference rate (BCRP) increased 125bps QoQ and 575bps YoY while the FC rate (FED funds rate) increased 150bps QoQ and 300bps YoY.

QoQ Analysis

QoQ, Net Interest Income rose 9.5%. The evolution was mainly driven by the increase in LC and FC rates. IEA in LC represent 57% of total IEA and account for 81% of the Net Interest Income generated in 3Q22.

Dynamics in Local Currency (LC)
Net interest income in LC rose 5.6% after growth in interest income outpaced th expansion in expenses, which was due to the following dynamics:

Average IEAs in LC fell slightly and registered mixed variations in their components. Average structural loans increased 2.8% while liquid assets, investments and GP loans fell. Movements in these accounts generated a higher yield IEA mix in LC. The rates associated with components of IEA increased, in particular for loans and cash and equivalents, in line with growth in Peru’s reference rate and our active yield management. The yield on IEA in LC rose from 8.3% in 2Q22 to 9.3% in 3Q22. In this context, the price effect spearheaded the dynamic that contributed to 9.7% growth in interest income in LC.

Average funding in LC rose 0.9% due to growth in deposits and in time deposits in particular, which are more expensive than demand and savings deposits. It is important to note the demand and saving deposits also contributed, although to a lesser extent, to growth in funding.  This dynamic generated a more expensive deposit mix. Other sources of funding fell 4.2%, which was mainly attributable to a decline in balances of Reactiva funding, which was partially offset by growth in short-term due to banks. The funding cost in LC rose from 1.8% in 2Q22 to 2.3% in 3Q22, which primarily reflects the increase in market rates for deposits and an uptick in the share of more expensive sources of funding. Interest expenses in LC rose 30.9% due to negative price and mix factors.

Dynamics in Foreign Currency (FC)
Net Interest Income in FC increased 29.6% due to the following dynamics:

Average IEA in FC grew 5.2% due to growth in loans and available funds. Higher growth in loans than in other assets led to a higher-yield IEA mix in FC. FC rates increased in line with FED rate hikes. Higher interest rates and the evolution of loans led interest income in FC to increase 31.2%.

Average funding in FC rose 2.0%. This reflected the increase in sources of funding with higher rates, such as time deposits and due to banks, which was offset by a reduction in demand deposits. The funding cost increase was driven primarily by growth in FC rates and a negative mix effect generated by the increase in wholesale funding. In this context, interest expenses in FC increased 33.4%.

YoY Analysis

YoY, Net Interest Income rose 22.5%. This evolution was primarily attributable to the trajectory of IEA and rates in LC.

04. Net Interest Income (NII)

Dynamics in Local Currency (LC)
Net Interest Income in LC rose 20.0% YoY, in line with the following dynamics:

Average IEA in LC fell 3.4% YoY, driven by:

Average structural loans grew 16.4% after origination rose in the Wholesale, Retail and Microfinance segments;

Average balances of government program loans fell 38.8% after clients amortized balances;

Available funds and investments fell due to a drop in liquidity system-wide, which reflected Reactiva amortizations.

Movements in these accounts led the yield on IEA in LC to rise. Active rates with shorter durations (Available funds and Short-term Investments) increased in line with the reference rate. Additionally, strategies for active yield management led to an increase in disbursement rates, primarily for short-term loans. Combined, these effects led the IEA yield in LC to rise from 6.9% in 3Q21 to 9.3% in 3Q22. In this context, income in LC increased 30.7% due to a positive rate effect across IEA and an increase in the volume of structural loans.

Average funding in LC fell 6.7% due to a drop in repos balances in BCRP and a decrease in low-cost deposits, which was in line with Reactiva amortizations.

The rates of the components of LC funding increased, in particular for interest-bearing deposits and bank financing, which rose in line with reference rate hikes. The cost of funding in LC rose from 1.0% in 3Q21 to 2.3% in 3Q22. The price effect led interest expenses in LC to double.

Dynamics in Foreign Currency (FC)
Net Interest Income in FC rose 33.8%, which reflected the following dynamics:

Average IEA in FC fell 1.2% after loan growth was offset by a drop in available funds and investment balances. This dynamic generated a positive rate effect in the IEA yield.

The IEA yield in FC rose from 3.1% in 3Q21 to stand at 4.1% in 3Q22 due to an increase in market rates and the aforementioned mix effect. In summary, the positive price and mix effects generated income in FC to rise 30.8%.

Average funding in FC fell 0.1%; this was driven by a drop in expensive sources of funding, which was partially offset by growth in deposits. The funding cost in FC increased 1.4% in 3Q21 to stand at 1.8% in 3Q22, in line with an uptick in FC rates. Interest expenses in FC rose 26.8%, which was mainly spurred by an increase in passive rates.

YTD Analysis

YTD, Net Interest Income rose 20.2%, driven by the same factors as those that fueled the YoY evolution.

05 Provisions
     
 
QoQ, the provisions expense increased due to an uptick in SME provisions which reflects efforts to penetrate higher yield and riskier segments; and a base effect that impacted the SME segment in particular. This was partially offset by methodological improvements in the risk models at Mibanco.
YoY, higher provisions correspond to a base effect, given that, in 3Q21, extraordinarily low provisions were recorded after uncertainty surrounding the pandemic waned significantly.
In the aforementioned context, the structural Cost of Risk (CofR) stood at 1.44% at the end of 3Q22 and 1.04% YTD.

(2) The Structural Cost of risk excludes the Provisions for credit losses on loan portfolio, net of recoveries and Total Loans from the Reactiva Peru and FAE Government Programs.

QoQ, Structural Provisions grew mainly in BCP Individual, which led the structural CoR to rise 35bps. This evolution was propelled by the uptick in the provision expense for the SME-Pyme segment, which was driven by: (i) growth in segments with higher yields and commensurately higher risk profiles; (ii) a base effect given that during 2Q22 an extraordinarily low expense was recorded driven by methodological improvements that reflected a more favorable environment after the pandemic and (iii) write-offs that were reported for clients who also had Reactiva loans, generating higher expenses. The variation in provisions is within our risk appetite.

The aforementioned was partially attenuated by a drop in provisions expenses in the following segments:

Individuals – Mortgage, due to methodological improvements in risk models.

Mibanco, driven by a methodological adjustments that will not be repeated next quarter. This resulted in a particularly low level of provisions.

YoY, the provisions expense for structural loans increased considerably and the structural CofR rose 90bps. Growth in the provisions expenses was driven by:
Structural Cost of Risk by Subsidiary

A base effect given that in 3Q21, extraordinarily low provisions were recognized in the Consumer, SME and Wholesale segments to reflect the fact that uncertainty was dissipating.
Growth in provisions was partially offset by a decrease in expenses at:
Mibanco, due to the aforementioned QoQ dynamic and to the post-covid environment.

YTD, the provision expense remained relatively stable.

GP provisions fell significantly QoQ due to an uptick in honoring of State guarantees. YoY, the drop reflects growth in amortizations and positive results through honoring processes.

The provisions balance for GP loans represents 7% of Credicorp’s total provisions balance. The relatively small balance reflects the fact that GP loans are backed by guarantees that cover between 80-98% of the disbursement amount.

06 Other Income
     
 
Other core income continues to follow an upward trend. This improvement was fueled by growth in fee income, which was driven by an uptick in transactions and improvements in FX products and channels.
 
Other non-core income grew QoQ, mainly due to gains in the fixed income portfolio at Credicorp Capital Colombia. YoY and YTD, non-core other income decreased due to Net Losses on Securities which was driven by stock market volatility, and its consequents impacts on investments at Credicorp Individual, Prima, ASB and Pacifico.

QoQ the upward trend in core income continued, led by BCP Stand-alone, which registered growth in fee income due to an uptick in transactions through digital venues and POS. In this context, 43% of the transaction amount corresponds to transactions that do not involve cash. The aforementioned was partially offset by a drop in fees for insurance at Mibanco, which was associated with the reduction in loan disbursements. Exchange rate transactions fell alongside a reduction in capital market operations at Credicorp Capital and ASB.

YoY and YTD, fee income rose at BCP And Mibanco. This growth was driven by an uptick in transactions and in loan disbursements, which were partially offset by a drop in fees relative to mutual funds given that in 2Q21 and 3Q21, extraordinary income was reported due to inflows of third-party funds through international platforms. Gains on FX transactions continued to follow an upward trend due to growth in transaction volumes and the improvement in products and channels offered.

Other non-core income rose QoQ, which was primarily attributable to a decrease in net losses on securities given that Credicorp Capital Colombia reported gains on its fixed income portfolio in 3Q22. Additionally, results for speculative derivatives improved at BCP Stand-alone, Credicorp Capital and ASB, which reflected the change in valuation of these instruments from LIBOR to SOFR.
YoY and YTD, other non-core income fell due to an uptick in net losses on securities after rising market rates led to devaluation of the SOFR fixed income portfolios at different subsidiaries. YTD, losses were partially offset by extraordinary income at BCP in 1Q22, which was associated with tax refund for payments made in 2021.

07 Insurance Underwriting Results
     
 
The insurance underwriting result rose 45.1% QoQ in the last quarter to reach the highest level this year. The aforementioned was driven primarily by the Life Business, which registered growth in premiums across all lines (mainly in Credit Life and Group Life products) and a decrease in claims associated with an improvement in sanitary conditions.
In the YoY and YTD analysis, the insurance underwriting result rose due to a drop in claims in the Life business and growth in net earned premiums in both business lines, which reflects the impact of economic reactivation. The aforementioned was partially attenuated by increase in claims in P&C in the accumulated.

(1) Includes the results of the Life, Property & Casualty and Crediseguros business
(2) Includes net fees and underwriting expenses.

From a QoQ perspective, the underwriting result rose due to an 8.1% increase in net earned premiums and a drop in net claims. Both Life and P&C reported an uptick in net earned premiums, but growth was led by Life with an increase of 12.5%. In particular, (i) Credit Life, which registered higher sales of products through BCP and Banco de la Nacion and (ii) Group Life, which reported growth through its Complementary Insurance for Occupational Risk (SCTR) product. Reported claims dropped in Life this quarter as COVID-19 waned. This dynamic was partially mitigated by an increase in claims in P&C and by an uptick in the acquisition cost in both businesses, related to higher premiums.
From a YoY perspective, the insurance underwriting result improved significantly. The following factors stood out:

Growth in net earned premiums in the Life (+18.5%) and P&C businesses (+4.3%) due to economic reactivation post-pandemic;

A drop in claims in the Life business (-8.1%), which reflects a decrease in COVID-19 claims in a context of advances in the vaccination level. P & C also reported a decrease in claims, to the order of 3.9%;

A 14.1% decrease in the acquisition cost, which reflected a decrease in commissions after a contract in the alliance channel expired at the end of 2021.

YTD, the underwriting result entered positive terrain. This evolution was primarily driven by the Life business and was associated with a drop in excess mortality for COVID-19. Growth in the level of net earned premiums, which reflected economic reactivation, also bolstered the result this quarter.

(S/ millions)
  Net Earned Premiums in P&C Business(1)
(S/ millions)


In the QoQ analysis, net earned premiums in the Life business rose across products. Growth was noteworthy in (i) Credit Life, which was attributable to an uptick in sales through BCP due to higher consumer credit and Banco de la Nacion; (ii) Group Life, which was primarily attributable to Complementary Insurance for Occupational Risk (SCTR) due to a seasonal effect generated by statutory bonuses and (iii) D&S associated with higher revenue collection in SISCO V⁽2⁾.

In the P&C business, net earned premiums rose 3.4%, driven primarily by (i) Personal Lines, which reflects an upswing in Home Mortgage and Card Protection products and (ii) Cars through bancassurance and brokers channels.

In the YoY and YTD analysis, net earned premiums in the Life business rose 18.5% and 11.7% respectively, particularly in (i) Credit Life, due to growth in the Bancassurance channel given higher consumer credit, (ii) Group Life, in line with price adjustments and growth in new sales of Complementary Insurance for Occupational Risk products and (iii) D&S, given that the insured base broadened in a context of recovery of business activities. Net earned premiums for P&C increased 4.3% YoY and 6.8% YTD, driven by: (i) Medical Assistance, due to an uptick in sales of Oncological Compensation products and (ii) Personal Lines, due to growth in sales of Home Mortgage and Card protection products in the Bancassurance channel.

Net Claims by Business

Net Loss Ratio
(%)
The Net Loss Ratio stood at 63.6%, (-720bps QoQ). The drop in claims in the Life business was particularly noteworthy (-1500bps QoQ) and was driven by a drop in claims for (i) D & S, due to a decrease in regular cases and reported COVID-19 cases and (ii) Individual Life, due to a release of IBNR reserves and to a lesser extent to group life insurance products. The Net Loss Ratio for the P&C business remained stable QoQ. It is important to note the 3.3% increase in claims; this evolution was attributable to Medical Assistance which reflected an increase in visits to clinics by insured parties and regularization of lags in claims reporting.  Additionally, Cars and SOAT reported an increase in case frequency.

In the YoY and YTD analysis, the Net Loss Ratio improved after net claims in the Life business fell 7.7% and 20.9% respectively. This dynamic was driven by a decline in COVID cases due to an improvement in the sanitary situation.

The acquisition cost increased 13.3% QoQ, which reflects an upswing in underwriting results in the P & C business and an increase in commissions in the Life business. In the Life Business, growth in the acquisition cost is attributable to an increase in commissions through Credit Life and Complementary Insurance for Occupational Risk (SCTR), which was associated with growth in registered premiums. In the P & C line, the increase in the acquisition cost was attributable to higher underwriting expenses in Cars, Commercial Line and Medical Assistance, after more provisions were set aside for uncollectible premiums, and to Personal Lines.

In the YoY and YTD analysis, the acquisition cost fell 14.1% and 18.0% respectively. This evolution was primarily attributable to a decrease in commissions in the Life business after a contract in the alliance channel expired at the end of 2021 and underwriting expenses fell in the P&C business.

Increase in Salaries and Employee benefits, after more provisions were set aside for earnings this quarter. Variable compensation rose after commercial targets for the quarter were exceeded.
