PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Credicorp Ltd. is a Bermuda exempted company (and is referred to in this Annual Report as Credicorp, the Company, the Group, we, or us, each of which means either Credicorp Ltd. as a separate entity or as an entity together with our consolidated subsidiaries, as the context may require). We maintain our financial books and records in Peruvian Soles and present our financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). IFRS differ in certain respects from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States.

We operate primarily through our four lines of business (LoBs): Universal Banking, Microfinance, Insurance & Pensions, and Investment Banking & Wealth Management. Additionally, we complement the operations of our LoBs through our innovation portfolio which is managed by the Innovation Committee at the Credicorp level. For more information about our innovation portfolio and strategy, please review “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (1) Credicorp Overview – Our Innovation Strategy”.

Our eight main operating subsidiaries are:

•

Within Universal Banking: (i) Banco de Crédito del Perú S.A. (BCP Stand-alone), a Peruvian financial institution; and (ii) Banco de Crédito de Bolivia S.A. (BCP Bolivia) a commercial bank that operates in Bolivia and that we hold through Inversiones Credicorp Bolivia S.A. (ICBSA);

•

Within Microfinance: (iii) Mibanco, Banco de la Microempresa S.A. (Mibanco), a Peruvian banking entity oriented toward the micro and small business sector; and (iv) Mibanco – Banco de la Microempresa de Colombia S.A. (Mibanco Colombia), which resulted from the merger between Banco Compartir S.A. (Bancompartir) and Edyficar S.A.S. (Encumbra), which we hold through Credicorp Holding Colombia S.A.S.;

•

Within Insurance and Pensions: (v) Pacífico Compañía de Seguros y Reaseguros S.A. (Pacífico Seguros and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, Grupo Pacífico), an entity that contracts and manages all types of general risk and life insurance, reinsurance and property investment and financial operations; and (vi) Prima AFP, a private pension fund; and

•

Finally, within Investment Banking and Wealth Management: (vii) Credicorp Capital Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries) was formed in 2012, and (viii) ASB Bank Corp., resulted from the merger between ASB Bank Corp. and Atlantic Security Bank, which we hold through Atlantic Security Holding Corporation (ASHC).

For information about these LoBs, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (2) Lines of Business (LoBs)”.

Table of Contents

As of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, BCP Stand-alone represented 75.1% of our total assets and 70.4% of our equity attributable to Credicorp’s equity holders (that is, its shareholders). Unless otherwise specified, the financial information for BCP Stand-alone, BCP Bolivia, Mibanco, Mibanco Colombia, ASB Bank Corp., Grupo Pacífico, Prima AFP and Credicorp Capital included in this Annual Report is presented in accordance with IFRS and before eliminations for consolidation purposes. See “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.A Selected Financial Data” and “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.A History and Development of the Company”. We refer to BCP Stand-alone, BCP Bolivia, Mibanco, Mibanco Colombia, Grupo Pacífico, Prima AFP, Credicorp Capital and ASB as our main operating subsidiaries.

“ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.A Selected Financial Data” contains key information related to our performance. This information was obtained mainly from our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, references in this Annual Report to “S/”, “Sol”, “local currency” or “Soles” are to Peruvian Soles (each Sol is divided into 100 centimos (cents)), and references to “$”, “US$,” “Dollars”, “US Dollars” or “U.S. Dollars” are to United States Dollars. In addition, references to USDPEN are the currency exchange rate between the U.S. Dollar and the Peruvian Sol.

Some of our subsidiaries, namely Atlantic Security Holding and five of its subsidiaries (Atlantic Security International Financial Services Inc (ASIF), ASB Bank Corp., Atlantic Private Equity Investment Advisor, Atlantic Security Private Equity General Partner, Credicorp Capital Cayman GP), Credicorp Capital USA Inc. (with its subsidiaries Credicorp Capital Advisors LLC., Credicorp Capital LLC. and Tyba LLC.) and Credicorp Capital Asset Management Administradora General de Fondos maintain their operations and balances in US Dollars and other currencies. As a result, in certain instances throughout this Annual Report, we have translated US Dollars and other currencies to Soles. You should not construe any of these translations as representations that the US Dollar amounts actually represent such equivalent Sol amounts or that such US Dollar amounts could be converted into Soles at the rate indicated, as of the dates mentioned herein, or at all. Unless otherwise indicated, these Sol amounts have been translated from US Dollar amounts at an exchange rate of S/3.814= US$1.00, which is the December 31, 2022 exchange rate set by the Peruvian Superintendence of Banks, Insurance and Pension Funds (Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y Administradoras Privadas de Fondos de Pensiones or SBS by its Spanish initials), S/3,987 and S/3,621 per dollar as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Converting US Dollars to Soles on a specified date (at the prevailing exchange rate on that date) may result in the presentation of Sol amounts that are different from the Sol amounts that would result by converting the same amount of US Dollars on a different specified date (at the prevailing exchange rate on such date). Our Bolivian subsidiary operates in Bolivianos (BOB). For consolidation purposes, our Bolivian subsidiary’s financial statements are also presented in Soles. Our Colombian and Chilean subsidiaries operate in Colombian Pesos (COP) and Chilean Pesos (CLP), respectively, and their financial statements are also converted into Soles for consolidation purposes.

Our management’s criteria for translating foreign currency, for the purpose of preparing Credicorp’s consolidated financial statements, are described in “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.A Operating Results – (3) Critical Accounting Policies – 3.3 Foreign Exchange”.

Translated for convenience only from Sol amounts to US Dollar amounts using exchange rates of S/3.814 = US$1.00, which is the December 31, 2022 exchange rate set by the SBS, for statement of financial position data and of S/3.838 = US$1.00, which is the average exchange rate on a monthly basis in 2022, for income statement data (for consistency with the annual amounts being translated).

(2)

Allowance for loan losses include provisions and reserves with respect to direct loans losses and indirect loans losses or off-balance sheet items such as guarantees and standby letters, performance bonds, and import and export letters of credit. The 2022 provision for credit losses decreased from 2021. This decrease was mainly due to the flow of write-offs carried out during 2022, which mainly impacted the BCP consumer segment and to the small and microenterprise segment in both BCP and Mibanco Perú; In addition, it was due, although to a lesser extent, to the decrease in the US$/Sol exchange rate. The above effects were partially offset by the deterioration of the macroeconomic component, which had a greater impact on the consumer and small and microenterprise segments at BCP, and by entering segments of greater profitability and risk in small and microenterprises at BCP.

(3)	Total other expenses include salaries and employee benefits, administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, depreciation for right-of-use assets, impairment loss on goodwill and others.

(4)	The number of shares consists of capital stock (see Note 18(a) to the consolidated financial statements) less treasury stock (see Note 18 (b) to the consolidated financial statements).

(5)

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to Credicorp’s equity holders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, excluding the average number of ordinary shares purchased and held as treasury stock (see Note 30 to the consolidated financial statements). Dilutive earnings per share is calculated by dividing by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, including the average number of ordinary shares purchased and held as treasury stock.

(6)

Dividends declared per share based on net profit attained for the financial years 2020 and 2021 were declared in Soles and paid in US Dollars on October 7, 2021, and June 10, 2022, respectively, using the weighted exchange rate registered by the SBS for the transactions at the close of business on October 7, 2021, and June 10, 2022, respectively. As of the date of this Annual Report, no dividends have been declared in 2023.

(7)

“Total loans” refers to “loans, net of unearned income” as disclosed in our consolidated financial statements, which equals direct loans plus accrued interest minus unearned interest. See Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements. In addition to loans outstanding, we had off-balance-sheet items, including those mentioned in Note (2) above that amounted to S/20,973.8 million, S/22,914.3 and S/20,928.1 million, as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively. See Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements.

(8)	Total deposits exclude interest payable. See Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.

Acquisition cost includes net fees, underwriting expenses and underwriting income.

(13)	Sum of salaries and employee benefits, administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization and acquisition cost, all as percentage of average total assets.

(14)

Regulatory capital calculated in accordance with guidelines established by the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices of International Settlements (Basel Committee Accord) as adopted by the SBS. See “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.B Liquidity and Capital Resources - (1) Capital Adequacy Requirements for Credicorp.”

(15)

Depending on the type of loan, BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco consider corporate, large business and medium business loans to be internal overdue loans for after 15 days; and overdrafts, small and micro business to be internal overdue loans after 30 days. For consumer, mortgage and leasing loans the past-due installments are considered internal overdue after 30 to 90 days and after 90 days, the outstanding balance of the loan is considered internal overdue. ASB considers internal overdue loans all overdue loans when the scheduled principal and/or interest payments are overdue for more than 30 days. BCP Bolivia considers loans as internal overdue after 30 days.

(16)	Other off-balance-sheet items primarily consist of guarantees and stand-by letters, performance bonds, and import and export letters of credit. See Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements.

3. D	Risk Factors

Our businesses are affected by many external and other factors in the markets in which we operate. Different risk factors can impact our businesses, our ability to operate effectively and our business strategies. You should consider the risk factors carefully and read them in conjunction with all the information in this document. You should note that the risk factors described below are not the only risks to consider. Rather, these are the risks that we currently consider material. There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial or of which we are unaware, and any of these risks could have similar effects to those set forth below.

Macroeconomic Risks

Our geographic location exposes us to risks related to Peruvian political, social, and economic conditions.

Most operations of BCP Stand-alone, Grupo Pacífico, Prima AFP, and a significant part of Credicorp Capital’s and Mibanco operations are located in Peru. In addition, while ASB Bank Corp. is based in Panama rather than in Peru, most of its customers are located in Peru. Therefore, our results primarily depend on economic activity in Peru. Changes in economic conditions, both international and domestic, government policies or social uncertainty can alter the financial health and normal development of our businesses. These changes may include, but are not limited to, high inflation, currency depreciation, currency exchange controls, caps on interest rates, confiscation of private property, financial regulation, among others. Similarly, terrorist activity, political and social unrest and corruption scandals can adversely impact our operations.

According to the IMF staff concluding statement of the 2023 article IV mission (February 9), the outlook is very uncertain and downside risks prevail. The main external risks to their outlook include: spillovers from Russia’s war in Ukraine, an abrupt global slowdown with an associated commodity price volatility, and a possible de-anchoring of inflation expectations forcing a further tightening in the global financial conditions. Domestic risks to the outlook include an intensification of political uncertainty, social unrest over political developments and natural disasters.

Peru experienced one of its worst social and political crises in decades after a failed coup on December 7, 2022, by former president Pedro Castillo, caused massive protests. On the day of a debate by Peru’s congress on a third motion to impeach Castillo, in a message to the Nation, Castillo announced the temporary dissolution of Peru’s congress, new elections for a congress with the power to reform Peru’s constitution and the restructuring of Peru’s justice system. The police and armed forces released a joint statement saying that any act contrary to the established constitutional order is a violation of the constitution and that they will not abide by it. Within hours of his speech, Peru’s congress had voted to remove Castillo from office due to moral incapacity and he was arrested on charges of rebellion and conspiracy. In turn, Vice President Dina Boluarte was sworn in as Peru’s first female president and has indicated that she plans to govern until 2026, which is the year Castillo’s term would have ended.

Since Boluarte took office, social unrest exacerbated and erupted, mainly in southern regions of Peru, where Castillo has more support. Protesters have demanded the resignation of President Boluarte, the shutdown of Peru’s congress and immediate general elections. Protests have been violent; as of late January 2023, more than 50 civilians had died during social demonstrations, there have been many road blockages, and several regional airports have had to suspend operations temporarily as infrastructure was damaged. These protests were ongoing and concentrated in Puno as of late March 2023, and there could be no assurance as to when these protests would stop, despite reports in March that there were signs that the protests had started to wane.

On December 20, 2022, Peru’s congress approved a bill that sought to end the current presidential mandate in July 2024 and called for general elections. However, as the bill constituted a constitutional amendment, a second vote was required. On March 14, 2023, the congress’s constitutional commission rejected the initiative to advance the general elections to 2023. It was the fifth time the constitutional reform bill was rejected since December. The current presidential mandate is scheduled to end in 2026.

Table of Contents

It is important to recall that the general elections of 2021 resulted in an environment of political and social polarization, as Pedro Castillo, a leader of a teachers’ union and of indigenous heritage, was elected president in a very narrow (only 44,263 votes of difference) second round win against the right-wing candidate Keiko Fujimori, who is the daughter of ex-president Alberto Fujimori. Between July 2021 and December 2022, Castillo appointed 5 different prime ministers and named more than 70 ministers. In October 2022, Castillo was also accused by Peru’s top prosecutor of overseeing a criminal organization run from the presidential palace with the purpose of monopolizing, controlling and steering bidding processes in order to obtain illicit gains. The complaint also included two ministers who served under Castillo.

Among the main risks presented by the next government are intentions to impose more state control over the economy, potential changes to Peru’s current constitution (which was enacted in 1993), strict interest rate controls and lack of technical expertise. For a new constitution to replace the current one through a constituent assembly, a constitutional reform proposal would need to be approved by Peru’s congress, either through an absolute majority (87 votes) in two consecutive legislatures or simple a majority (66 votes) ratified in a referendum.

Social and political instability in Peru is not new. The country has experienced various instances of instability ranging from domestic terrorism (during the 1980’s) to military coups and a succession of regimes. Although the risk of renewed domestic terrorism is not expected, any violence derived from the drug trade, or a resumption of large-scale terrorist activities could hurt our operations. Additionally, some regimes during the 1970s and 1980s heavily intervened in the economy in pursuit of various economic policies and priorities, including expropriation, nationalization and new taxation policies. These interventions altered the country’s economic environment, financial system and agricultural sector, among other components.

There have also been several political disputes between the government and the opposition in recent decades. Since 2001, more than ten different political organizations have nominated candidates for President in each of the five election processes, showing low approval rating for all candidates (usually around 20%–30% approval ratings). Since August 2016 until February 2023, Peru has had 6 presidents, 3 congresses and 16 prime ministers.

According to the Peruvian National institute of Statistic and Informatic (Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas e Informática or INEI by its Spanish initials), high levels of poverty in Peru have historically been a contributing factor to social conflict. Between 2004 and 2019 (pre pandemic) according to INEI, Peru’s poverty rate decreased from almost 60% of the population to 20%. In 2020, due to the economic shock resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the poverty rate increased to 30%, erasing nearly all gains from the last decade. Even though the poverty rate fell to 26% in 2022, it remains above pre-pandemic levels.

There can be no assurance that Peru will not continue facing political, economic or social problems in the future or that these problems will not adversely affect our business, financial conditions, and results of operations. There is always the possibility that, as has happened before, a political faction could promote policies to respond to social unrest with a speech that includes, among other things, expropriation, nationalization, suspension of the enforcement of creditors’ rights and new taxation policies.

Another source of risk is related to political and social unrest in areas where mining and oil and gas operations take place. In recent years, Peru has experienced protests against mining projects in several regions around the country. In 2021, as Peru’s then president, Castillo called for the nationalization of certain gas and mining operations. Mining is an important part of the Peruvian economy. According to INEI, the mining and hydrocarbons sector represented 14.4% of GDP (mining 12.2% and hydrocarbons 2.2%) in 2022. The country’s exports are highly concentrated in the mining industry; in 2022 free on board (FOB) exports of metallic mining represented 52.5% of total exports (copper represents half of this mining exports), with tax revenues from the sector representing 14.4% of total tax revenue in 2022.

On several occasions, local communities have opposed these operations and accused them of polluting the environment, specifically rivers, hurting agricultural and other traditional economic activities, as well as complained of not receiving the benefits in terms of growth and wealth generated by the mining projects. For example, in 2021, politicized social unrest in Apurimac surrounded the Las Bambas mining project, which produced approximately 11% of Peru’s total copper production in 2022. Las Bambas’ majority owner, MMG, stated that if the routes to the mine continued to be blocked by different politicized members of communities surrounding the mine and routes to the mine, they will not be able to operate. In April 2022, Las Bambas shut down for 51 days, after protesters from two communities entered the mine and settled inside. The recent social protests of late 2022 and early 2023 have also affected Las Bambas’ operations as road blockages prevented the arrival of key inputs. In another example, on January 12, 2023, Minsur announced the temporary suspension of operations in its San Rafael tin mine, in Peru’s Puno region, as a measure of solidarity with the families of people who died in recent protests in the region. And on February 6, 2023, Buenaventura temporarily suspended operations at its Julcani silver mine after protesters entered and destroyed part of the mine's facilities.

These and other delays or cancellations of mining projects could reduce Peruvian economic growth and business confidence, thereby hurting the financial system both directly (many mining projects are at least partially financed by local financial institutions) and indirectly (overall economic activity could decelerate). Any such effect on the financial system could have a material adverse effect on our business and result of operations.

Beyond the mining, and oil and gas sectors, the ongoing protests may also have negatively affected the tourism, hospitality, transportation, and retail sectors. These sectors have also been affected by other developments in recent years, such as climate change. These Peruvian political and social developments may also affect foreign investment sentiment and therefore economic development. Having said that, and due to ongoing social and political risks, in January 2023, Moody’s changed Peru’s credit rating outlook from stable to negative and kept the rating in Baa1.

Our banking and capital market operations in neighboring countries expose us to risk related to political and economic conditions in those countries.

ICBSA, Credicorp Capital Holding Colombia, Credicorp Capital Holding Chile and ASB Bank Corp. expose us to risks related to Bolivian, Colombian, Chilean and Panamanian political and economic conditions, respectively. These economies suffered unprecedented GDP contractions in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and have experienced an uneven recovery as a result of different policy responses and economic structures. Colombia and Chile returned to pre-pandemic levels in 2021 while Panama and Bolivia did so in 2022. The negative effect of the pandemic on poverty and inequality, combined with inflation rates (driven by high energy and food prices) not seen in these countries in decades, inflamed an already complex social environment characterized by elevated levels of inequality and dissatisfaction with authorities. According to data from the World Bank, Colombia is the second most unequal country in the region, as measured by the Gini index. In general, the higher the Gini index, which measures the rate of social inequality, of a country, the more unequal it is. Brazil has the highest Gini index in the region; Panama has the third-highest.

In recent years, neighboring countries in Latin America in which we have banking and capital market operations have experienced widespread social unrest and several left-wing leaders have been chosen as presidents:

•

Chile: In October 2019, Chile experienced massive and violent demonstrations that forced Sebastian Piñera’s government to sign off on a referendum on a new constitution. In late 2021, Gabriel Boric, a 36-year-old left-wing leader, was elected as Chile’s president for a four-year term. After voters rejected the text for a new constitution in September 2022, Chile’s congress approved a new constituent process, which will likely result in ongoing uncertainty in the political and social arenas until the next referendum on forming a constituent assembly takes place.

•

Colombia: In 2021, the proposal of an unpopular tax reform triggered its most serious public unrest in recent memory. Gustavo Petro, also a left-wing candidate and former guerrilla fighter, won the 2022 general election, making history as the first left-wing president to be elected in the country. He was also elected for a four-year term.

•

Panama: In 2022, rising living costs, especially of gasoline prices (which at one point in 2022 were almost 80% higher than at the same point in 2021), sparked the largest social protests in at least three decades. The next presidential election will be held in May 2024.

•

Bolivia: Luis Arce, also from the left-wing, was elected president for a five-year term in 2020. Between late 2022 and January 2023, protests took place in Santa Cruz, which represents a larger proportion of Bolivia’s GDP than any other city.

Table of Contents

These protests have had a negative effect on economic activity and businesses in general in countries in which we have operations. Given these developments, we cannot provide any assurance that Peru will not experience any residual effects from events in neighboring countries, such as the possibility of the base of protesters in Peru extending to the middle class, which may have a materially adverse effect on our business and result of operations. Significant changes to Bolivian, Colombian, Chilean and Panamanian political and economic conditions could have an adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, and results of operations.

Bolivia

During 2022, the Bolivian economy continued to recover, supported by the performance of several economic sectors including transport, services, energy and construction. Moreover, the war between Russia and Ukraine prolonged the rise in various commodity prices, which supported revenue from the exports of minerals, gas and some agricultural products. The effects of price inflation caused by the war, however, were cushioned by subsidies implemented by Bolivia’s government. However, the increase in the price of oil generated additional pressure on Bolivia’s trade balance during the last quarter of 2022, reducing the surplus relative to 2021. Similar to 2021, in 2022, there was slight increase in foreign currency deposits in the financial system, while the foreign-exchange reserves maintained the decreasing trend observed since 2015.

Notwithstanding increased government revenues from the mining sector and the end of certain pandemic-related emergency measures, which lowered Bolivia’s fiscal deficit from 12.7% of GDP in 2020 to 9.3% of GDP in 2021, Bolivia has continued to fund approximately one-third of its budget deficit through its central bank. This has caused a marked decrease in Bolivia’s international reserves. According to data published by the Bolivian Central Bank on February 8, 2023, its foreign reserves stood at US$ 3.5 billion (down from a peak of more than US$ 15 billion in 2014), the lowest level since 1996, of which gold reserves were US$ 2.6 billion and foreign currency reserves stood at US$ 372 million. While the official exchange rate remained at approximately 6.96 bolivianos per Dollar, the unofficial exchange rate had reached as high as 7.40 bolivianos per Dollar as of February 8, 2023. Consequently, in recent weeks, the Bolivian Central Bank began the direct sale of Dollars from its already low foreign reserves to meet public demand and exchanged most of its holdings of Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), which are international reserve assets created by the International Monetary Fund to supplement the official reserves of its member countries, with the Central Bank’s holdings of SDRs decreasing from US$ 538 million as of February 8, to US$ 225 million as of February 28, 2023. The Bolivian Central Bank is also negotiating loans of up to US$1.4 billion from multilateral organizations, and as of March 2023, the Bolivian congress had approved loans from multiple lenders totaling approximately US$ 770 million. On March 14, 2023, Fitch cut Bolivia's sovereign rating from B to B-, and its outlook from stable to negative; and on March 24 Moody’s downgraded Bolivia’s rating from B2 to Caa1 and placed it on review for further downgrade.

According to local estimates, Bolivia’s GDP grew by approximately 4.0% in 2022. For 2023, the Ministry of Economy and the Central Bank have projected a growth rate of 4.9%, driven by internal consumption, high commodities’ prices, and economic policies that promote macroeconomic stability and the industrialization of certain key economic sectors. Furthermore, the government expects a progressive reduction in the fiscal deficit in 2023 (7.5% of GDP) and a stable level of inflation (3.3% by the end of the year). However, the continued possibility of political conflicts and social unrest constitutes a risk factor that may affect the economic outlook for 2023.

Additionally, the lending quotas and caps on interest rates that were established in the financial services law (Ley de Servicios Financieros, No. 393), which was enacted in 2013, and the mandatory deferrals and refinancings schemes instituted in 2020 and 2021 to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, continued to negatively impact interest margins on banks, therefore reducing their ability to generate enough capital to maintain the growth in their lending portfolios.

Colombia

According to the Colombian National Statistics Bureau (DANE), the Colombian economy exhibited a GDP growth of 7.5% in 2022, one of the highest growth rates globally. The strong performance of the Colombian economy has been related to the highest level of terms of trade in several decades, as well as the remarkable evolution of consumption as household spending maintained strong momentum throughout the year amid record-high remittances from abroad and a continuous reopening of the economy, which pushed services consumption. On its part, the government maintained an expansionary stance, similar to that observed during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, which also significantly supported domestic demand.

While economic activity consistently outperformed expectations in 2022, persistent challenges remain. First, despite the ongoing normalization in the monetary policy stance, inflation pressures remain acute, postponing the period when it is expected to reach the target range of the monetary authority (early 2025). Thus, the estimate of the real neutral interest rate has increased and now is near 2.5%, compared to 1.5% before the pandemic. Second, despite the favorable terms of trade observed last year, the current account deficit remains one of the largest among emerging countries (close to 5.7% of GDP in 2021 and 6.2% in 2022). The accumulated inflation was superior than 13% in a context with an reference interest rate of 12%. Finally, although the fiscal deficit in 2022 was better than initially expected (5.5% as GDP) and the updated fiscal framework points towards its further reduction in 2023 (3.8% of GDP), there are still concerns about the high levels of debt and its expected process of reduction in a context of larger pressures for public spending. The depreciation of the Colombian peso respect the us dollar is more than 20% last year.

We expect the Colombian economy to grow 1% in 2023 amid the higher likelihood of a global recession, a very high domestic inflation that will take a toll on private consumption, tighter financial conditions both locally and abroad, higher taxes, and higher political uncertainty. In any case, should the Colombian economy grow 1% in 2023, it would be 11% larger than before the COVID-19 pandemic by Dec-23 after averaging compound annual growth of 6.6% between 2020 and 2023, well above the initial forecasts (in fact, activity ended up expanding in 2021 and 2022 at a rate that was roughly twice the initial estimate). Accordingly, we think that the expected slowdown next year will be part of a necessary adjustment to reduce the potential economic imbalances that have arisen from the strong dynamism of private consumption, which currently is nearly 18% above pre-Covid levels.

Undoubtedly, politics has taken center stage after the election of the first left-leaning president in Colombia’s history, Mr. Gustavo Petro. The first months of Petro’s government have been marked by higher levels of uncertainty, and underperformance of Colombian financial assets, as well as a reduction in both consumer and business sentiment. Overall, the higher uncertainty has been primarily the result of some comments and proposals from the President and members of his cabinet that have raised concerns about the future of the economy and economic policy. After successfully passing a tax reform for 1.3% of GDP (focused on higher taxes for high-income individuals and the oil sector), investors are now focused on topics such as the government’s energy transition proposal, which originally sought to halt the granting of new oil and gas exploration contracts and created concerns given the significance of the sector for Colombia’s external and fiscal accounts and the announced reforms in health and pension systems. The pension proposal is of special interest considering the potential impact on the private pension funds system and thus, on the financing of the government and the development of capital markets.

Chile

According to the Central Bank of Chile (BCCh), the Chilean economy expanded 2.9% in 2022. During 2H22, the economy proved to be more resilient than expected, leading to systematic upward revisions to the GDP growth forecast for the year. Per a survey of economists released by the BCCh, the market consensus in September 2022 expected Chilean GDP growth in 2022 of 1.9%, which was increased to 2.5% in the December 2022 survey. The expansion of the Chilean economy has been linked to increased private consumption along with higher-than-expected investment activity.

On the fiscal front, the government evidenced a strong discipline on the back of 23% y/y drop in fiscal spending according to the most recent Public Finances report released by the Minister of Finance. As a result, Chile achieved its first fiscal surplus (1.1% of GDP) in almost a decade in 2022. The figure was explained by a higher tax collection linked to lithium revenues, temporary taxes and larger dividend payments by companies.

According to the National Statistics Institute (INE by its Spanish initials), in December 2022, inflation stood at 12.8% year over year the highest level in decades. The figure was driven by a strong domestic demand (on the back of pension fund withdrawals and fiscal transfers), higher global costs, the peso depreciation and the rise in commodity prices due to the conflict in Ukraine. The inflationary process was thus linked to global factors together with local elements, with the latter playing a larger role.

For 2023, we expect the economy to continue resolving the large macroeconomic imbalances. We forecast a recession for the Chilean economy with the GDP contracting (0.5%) compared to the previous year. In any case, we estimate that the recession will be milder than is expected by market consensus, which forecast a GDP decline of (1%) as per the February 2023 Consensus Forecast report. In our opinion, the economy has proven to be more resilient than expected in previous quarters, and from a statistical point of view, the higher carry-over effect supports a less gloomy scenario. In addition, different fundamentals support a less pessimistic view, such as the decline in political uncertainty, lower interest rates and a marginal improvement in investment prospects.

In any case, volatility continues to be elevated, and our base case is subject to risks with the major concerns for the year as follows: i) a new pension fund withdrawal which would erode institutional confidence and will increase economic imbalances; ii) a deeper global recession which would reduce the external impulse and increase financial market volatility; iii) an increase in political uncertainty due to a more radicalized constitutional process than currently envisioned; and iv) higher external and domestic inflation persistence which would keep interest rates high for longer.

On the political front, in September 2022, Chileans rejected the new constitution with 62% of the total votes according to the National Electoral Service (SERVEL). In our opinion, the result shows that most of the Chileans are critical with respect to the degree of changes they want for the country. In this context, for this year the Congress agreed on the roadmap for a new constitutional process. The proposal includes 12 constitutional basic principles, an Expert Committee composed by 24 members elected by the Congress, a Constitutional Council composed of 50 members elected by popular vote, a technical committee, and an exit plebiscite. As a result, in Dec-23, Chileans will vote again on a new constitutional proposal. In our opinion, controversial issues such as central bank independence, property and water rights, expropriation, the political and justice systems, mining concessions and indigenous rights, among others, should have high-level discussion given the rejection of the previous proposal. Although political uncertainty is expected to continue to be high, all these elements suggest a much more moderate process and draft, in our opinion.

Panama

In 2022, the recovery gained momentum and the economy finally began running above 2019 levels. In 2022, the GDP grew 10.8%, bolstered by the resumption of the construction of Panama’s third metro line, recovering private investment and increased activity through the Panama Canal. On a sector-by-sector basis, construction, transport, and commerce contributed the most to Panama’s economic growth.

Panama’s economy continues to build on the GDP base effect resulting from unprecedented GDP contraction of 17.7% in 2020, as Panama’s economic structure left it vulnerable to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, GDP rebounded 15.8%, one of the highest growth rates in the region, favored by the vaccination process that allowed a gradual easing of the temporary containment measures. The global economic recovery, big infrastructure projects and copper production from Minera Cobre Panamá (the largest private investment project in the country’s history) have driven substantial economic growth in the last couple of years. Copper exports increased from cero to USD 2.9 billion in the twelve months accumulated till September 2022.

Amid this continued economic growth, rising living costs, especially increasing gasoline prices, sparked the largest social protests in at least three decades in mid-2022. These protests led the government to temporarily subsidize the price of gasoline for three months, at a cost of approximately 0.3% of GDP that was expected to be offset with current spending cuts. Other factors behind social unrest were high inequality, with Panama being the third most unequal country in the region (as measured by Gini index, according to World Bank data), and a greater public perception of corruption in the political arena. At the end of 2022, inflation was at 2.9% from the end of 2021.

In that sense, beyond 2022 there is a risk that pressures for greater social spending will continue in an already challenging fiscal environment. In October 2022, Moody’s changed Panama’s credit rating outlook from stable to negative (with the rating maintained at Baa2) given rising fiscal pressures stemming from an increasingly rigid spending structure related to upward trends in wages, transfers and interest payments. Standard & Poor’s (S&P) had also reduced its outlook to negative (BBB) in August 2021. Conversely, in February, Fitch improved the outlook from negative to stable and left the rating at BBB-, only one notch above investment grade. These developments followed downgrades from all three credit agencies between 2020 and 2021 as Panama’s fiscal position weakened. Panama’s public debt, as a percentage of GDP, peaked at year-end 2020 at 68.0% of GDP, fell to 64% at year-end 2021 and fell further to 62% at year-end 2022. The 2022 level represents an increase of more than 20 percentage points from the year-end since 2018 rate of 40% of GDP.

Finally, according to the IMF, exiting the FATF’s (Financial Action Task Force) grey list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring is key to preserving Panama’s position as a regional financial center. In February 2023, the FATF again expressed significant concern that Panama had failed to complete its action plan and strongly urged them to do so by 2023.

Economic and market conditions in other countries may affect the Peruvian economy and the market price of Peruvian securities.

Peru is a small, open economy highly integrated with the rest of the world and is affected by movements in the external environment (growth of main trade partners, changes in commodity prices, and movements in external rates and global financial markets). As such, any major deterioration of the international economy can have materially adverse effects on the Peruvian economy and markets, as well as in our businesses and operational results. A global recession was the big fear heading into 2023 and although the outlook has improved somewhat, it is still one of the top 2023 risks.

In January 2023, the World Bank published its Global Economic Prospects report, which projected that global growth would slow to 1.7% (at nominal exchange rates) this year, its third-weakest pace in nearly three decades, other than global recessions, and roughly half the growth rate that had been forecast seven months prior. They added that any additional adverse shocks could push the global economy into recession. In a separate report published in September 2022, the World Bank argued that the risk of a global recession in 2023 had risen amid simultaneous interest rate hikes, synchronized by central banks around the world in 2022 to the greatest extent in the past five decades.

Global economic activity will be weighed by continuous disruptions from the war between Russia and Ukraine, tighter financial conditions, lower disposable incomes as real wages have fallen and a lower contribution to consumption from “pent-up demand”.

The recent policy U-turn from China, with the easing of its highly restrictive COVID-19 stance and the measures taken to shore up the real estate sector, plus a resilient labor market in the United States, has made the outlook less gloomy. China’s 2023 GDP forecast was revised upwards to 5.3% by the IMF as the economic reopening was received positively. Also, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimates that U.S. GDP will grow by 1.4% in 2023 as better-than-expected labor market data has increased the probability of a soft economic landing.

There are also signs that inflation has moderated, with overall measures slowing down in most countries. In the United States, for instance, by February 2023, inflation had slowed to 6.0% from February 2022, the lowest rate since September 2021 and significantly down from the peak of 9.1% in June 2022; core inflation (which excludes food and energy) stood at 5.5% in February 2023, which represented the lowest rate since December 2021. Inflation has slowed down due to the drop in energy prices, reduced pressure on supply chains, normalization of some prices affected by the COVID-19 pandemic (new and used cars, car rentals and hotel rates) and reduction in prices of various goods due to lower demand (as of February 2023, on a month-to-month basis, the price of durable goods had fallen in 4 of the previous 6 months and the price of non-durable goods had fallen in 5 of the previous 8 months). However, services inflation is resulting stickier than expected.

Even though there are some bright spots, the global economy generally still faces more downside risk. According to the IMF’s January World Economic Outlook, downside risks include: i) a stall of China’s economic recovery amid greater-than-expected economic disruptions from future waves of COVID-19 infections or a sharper-than-expected slowdown in the property sector; ii) inflation that remains stubbornly high amid continued labor market tightness and growing wage pressures, requiring tighter monetary policies and resulting in a sharper slowdown in activity; iii) an escalation of the war in Ukraine that could destabilize energy or food markets and further fragment the global economy and; iv) a sudden repricing in financial markets that could tighten financial conditions, especially in emerging market and developing economies.

If a global recession materializes it could affect Peru’s economic growth mainly through i) lower commodity prices and ii) lower external demand. The country’s exports are highly concentrated in the mining industry; copper and gold exports share of total exports was 40% in 2022. In addition, an important source of fiscal revenue comes from mining (14.4% of tax revenue in 2022). Therefore, Peruvian trade responds significantly to fluctuations in metal prices, especially gold and copper. In 2022, Peru’s trade surplus declined to US$9.6 billion from a record of US$14.9 billion in 2021, affected by lower terms of trade. The average copper price for 2022 was USD 3.99 per pound, 6% lower than the average of USD 4.23 per pound in 2021, while oil prices increased 40% over the same period (to USD 99.0. per barrel). In addition to changes in prices, Peru is also vulnerable to fluctuations in foreign demand, especially from China and the United States, Peru’s main trade partners. The European Union is also an important buyer of Peruvian goods, especially of non-traditional ones. So, lower than expected growth from these countries would pose risks to Peru’s economic growth as it may impact exports and foreign direct investment.

Likewise, a reduction of growth in Latin America can also impact the Peruvian economy and our business, especially regarding Chile, Colombia, Bolivia and Panama, where we have operations, as well as Brazil and Mexico, which have a broad impact throughout the region because of their size.

Furthermore, financial conditions in global markets also affect the Peruvian economy, affecting interest rates for local corporate bonds and influencing the exchange rate. Monetary policy tightening in developed economies, particularly by the Federal Reserve in the United States, could adversely affect economic activity in Peru since it strengthens the US Dollar and increases interest rates, thereby reducing access to funding for some local businesses. Also, since the Peruvian economy has some level of loans denominated in US Dollars (23.5% of loans to the private sector and 35.7% of deposits as of December 2022), which is referred to as financial dollarization, potential financial balance sheet position effects should be considered because a higher exchange rate could increase debt burdens for individuals and businesses that have taken loans in dollars but earn their income in local currency.

Geopolitical tensions and conflict, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, could have economic effects that could negatively impact the Peruvian economy.

We are subject to geopolitical risks, including economic sanctions, acts or threats of international or domestic terrorism, actions taken by governments in response, state-sponsored cyberattacks or campaigns, civil unrest and/or military conflicts, which could adversely affect business and economic conditions abroad and in the markets in which we operate. For example, in early 2022, geopolitical tensions intensified as Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24 and NATO backed Ukraine with various forms of support short of direct intervention. The war between these two countries and its effect on supply caused commodity prices to spike during the first half of 2022, especially for commodities for which Russia and Ukraine had an important share of global production like crude oil, natural gas, wheat, and fertilizers. The conflict triggered a commodity rally, with the price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI), a crude oil benchmark used as a reference price in the United States, reaching almost USD 124 per barrel (its highest level since 2008), while the prices of natural gas, wheat, copper, aluminum and palladium reached historic highs. These price increases exacerbated inflation that the world was already experiencing.

The war is not over yet, and actions are still being taken and/or considered against Russia. These measures could have global repercussions and remain an important risk in 2023. For instance, according to the Wall Street Journal, in January 2023 the US and Germany outlined plans to send dozens of modern battle tanks to Ukraine, marking significant new Western assistance. Russia may also launch one or more new offensives against Ukraine. Any escalation of the conflict may exacerbate economic issues already arising from it. Additionally, on February 5, the European Union adopted further price caps for Russian petroleum products (such as diesel and fuel oil) to hit their revenues even harder and reduce its ability to wage war in Ukraine, according to the European Commission Statement. These caps supplement the price cap for crude oil in force since December 2022, and their effects on energy markets are still uncertain.

The conflict still poses upside risks to commodity prices. A scenario where the war escalates and these prices increase significantly, as in the first half of 2022, would represent a negative shock on real disposable income as it would make agricultural products and basic products more expensive, along with higher transportation costs due to higher oil prices. Emerging economies with high levels of poverty remain particularly vulnerable to this shock which could fuel new waves of social unrest.

In addition, in Peru, where we conduct most of our business, the escalation of this conflict may have impacts on the economy despite Russia and Ukraine representing around 3.5% of world GDP in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) terms. It could renew inflationary pressures globally and force central banks, including the BCRP, to pursue an even further restrictive monetary policy stance.

Another geopolitical risk is related to tensions in the relationship between China and United States. Throughout 2018 and 2019, there was a trade dispute between both countries that included the imposition of tariffs on both U.S. and Chinese products on several occasions, denouncements regarding currency manipulation and filing actions in the World Trade Organization, among others, which negatively affected global demand and commodity prices. More recently, political tensions escalated after the United States shot down a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon and U.S. Representative Nancy Pelosi, the former speaker of the House, visited Taiwan, which China claims as part of its territory.

Legal and Regulatory Risks

Regulatory changes and adoption of new international guidelines to sectors in which we operate could impact our earnings and adversely affect our operating performance.

Because we are subject to regulation and/or supervision in Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, Cayman Islands, the United States of America, Mexico, Spain and Panama, changes to the regulatory framework in any of these countries or changes in tax laws could adversely affect our business.

Financial Services Activities

We are, most directly, subject to extensive supervision and regulation through Law No. 26702, Ley General del Sistema Financiero y del Sistema de Seguros y Orgánica de la Superintendencia de Banca y Seguros (the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law), which establishes the regulatory and supervisory framework for companies that operate in the Peruvian financial and insurance system; and the regulations enacted by SBS, which is the primary banking, insurance and private pension funds regulatory agency in Peru, including SBS Resolution No. 11823-2010, Reglamento para la Supervisión Consolidada de los Conglomerados Financieros y Mixtos (the Consolidated Supervision of Financial and Mixed Conglomerates Regulation).

The SBS and the BCRP supervise and regulate BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco’s operations. Peru’s constitution and the SBS’s statutory charter grant the SBS the authority to oversee and control banks and other financial institutions, including private pension funds and insurance companies. The SBS and the BCRP have general administrative responsibilities over BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, including setting their capital and reserve requirements. In past years, the BCRP has, on numerous occasions, changed the deposit reserve requirements applicable to Peruvian commercial banks, as well as the rate of interest paid on deposit reserves and the amount of deposit reserves on which no interest is payable by the BCRP. Such changes in the supervision and regulation of BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. See “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1 Peru” for additional information regarding the regulation of BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco by the SBS and the BCRP.

Furthermore, changes in regulation related to consumer protection made by these agencies may also affect our business. In March 2021, a new interest rate ceiling law was approved under Law No. 31143, Ley que protege de la usura a los consumidores de los servicios financieros (the Usury Law Regulation). This law grants the BCRP the power to set maximum and minimum interest rates, on a semi- annual basis, to regulate the market for consumer loans, small consumer loans, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) loans and credit card loans. Additionally, the Usury Law Regulation states that if a debtor is late in payment, only default interest will be charged. The collection of penalties or other commissions or expenses from debtors, as well as the capitalization of interest is prohibited by the Usury Law Regulation. The Usury Law Regulation also establishes that (i) the commissions and expenses applicable to consumer loans, small consumer loans, small and medium enterprises loans, and credit card loans must imply the provision of an additional and/or complementary service to the transaction entered into by the clients; (ii) the financial institution must justify the transfer of the cost to the client; and (iii) the value of the service must be supported by a technical, economic and legal report, which must be submitted to the SBS.

BCP Miami is regulated, supervised, and examined by the Florida Office of Financial Regulation (OFR) and by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System (FED). Our direct and indirect nonbanking subsidiaries doing business in the United States are also subject to the authority of relevant U.S. financial regulatory agencies depending on their U.S. activities.

Further, Credicorp Capital LLC., our U.S. broker-dealer, is regulated, supervised, and examined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.

Insurance

Our Property and Casualty (P&C) and Life insurance business is carried out by Pacífico Seguros, which is part of Grupo Pacífico. The insurance business is subject to regulation by the SBS. New legislation or regulations may adversely affect Grupo Pacífico’s ability to underwrite and price risks accurately, which in turn would affect underwriting results and business profitability. Grupo Pacífico is unable to predict whether and to what extent new laws and regulations that may affect its business will be adopted in the future.

While Grupo Pacífico is unable to predict with any certainty the timing of the passage or adoption of any new laws or regulations, or the effects those laws or regulations may have on its operations, profitability and financial condition in future years, we expect Peru to adopt new legislation in the coming years that will change the regulation of insurance companies. The legislation may be similar to the measure enacted by the European Union through Solvency II, a regulatory capital framework that seeks to further reduce the insolvency risk faced by insurance companies in the European Union by improving the regulation regarding the amount of capital that insurance companies there must hold.

The Peruvian regulator has been working on the implementation of the risk-based capital model, which seeks to guarantee that insurance companies maintain the necessary capital to face the risks inherent to their activity in the face of possible stress scenarios (similar to the Solvency II regulation that applies to European insurers). It is expected that this model will come into force before the year 2026. In the first quantitative exercise that was carried out, the results for the company showed that Pacífico Seguros has an excess of the capital that would be required.

Pension fund

In May 2022, the government and congress approved another withdrawal of funds, pursuant to which a total of S/ 6.3 billion was withdrawn, representing 66% of the funds available for withdrawal. If the Peruvian government decides to approve a new withdrawal, this would impact the management of the funds, as well as the Premium operation; and we would work to collect more funds in the form of voluntary contributions.

In May 2021, the Peruvian government and congress approved a new withdrawal of funds, pursuant to which a total of S/9.2 billion was withdrawn, representing 79% of the funds available for withdrawal. In August 2021, Peru’s congress approved and published a law that reduces from 55 to 50 the age to access early retirement for men.

Table of Contents

In March and April 2020, in response to the COVID-19 crisis, the Peruvian government and congress took measures to provide liquidity to affiliates by allowing them to draw down their funds. These measures had an impact on funds under management and on income in the AFPs’ system in 2020. In the case of Prima AFP, total fund withdrawals amounted S/7.5 billion, representing 70% of the funds that were available for withdrawal. In November 2020, as the COVID-19 crisis continued, the Peruvian government and congress allowed a second withdraw of funds which reached approximately S/2.4 billion approximately. This withdrawal took effect between December 2020 and February 2021.

In 2016, Peru’s congress approved a reform that allows affiliates to withdraw up to 95.5% of their pension funds when they reach the retirement age (65 years) and unemployment early retirement age (50 and 55 years for women and men, respectively). This initiative may motivate affiliates that haven’t reached the age of retirement to apply to an early retirement regime by altering their employment situation.

As such, as it pertains to affiliates close to retirement, the withdrawal of 95.5% of their funds could impact AFP’s funds under management and Prima AFP’s operations. Therefore, in 2019, to reinforce this reform and cushion the level of early withdrawals, the government approved new strict restrictions for this retirement alternative for those affiliates who qualify for early retirement. Although this can help to mitigate the risk that a massive number of affiliates request early withdrawals, and so reduce the impact of early retirement on funds under management, the risk of retirements of funds is still on the table.

In 2012, the Peruvian government passed a law to reform the Peruvian Private Pension System (PPS), which attempted to expand coverage workers affiliated with the PPS (which are referred to generally as “affiliates”), encourage market competition, and decrease administration fees in the PPS.

Changes in U.S. laws or regulations applicable to our business, such as the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (AMLA 2020) regulations, as well as other international regulations such as the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD’s) Common Reporting Standards (CRS), may have an adverse effect on our financial and operational performance, by significantly increasing our compliance obligations.

Credicorp, as a Bermuda exempted company, may be adversely affected by any change in Bermuda law or regulation.

Pursuant to the Economic Substance Act 2018 (as amended) of Bermuda (the “ES Act”), which came into force on January 1, 2019, a registered entity, other than an entity which is resident for tax purposes in certain jurisdictions outside Bermuda (that is, a non-resident entity), that carries on as a business with any one or more of the “relevant activities” referred to in the ES Act is considered to be in the scope of economic substance requirements to ensure that the entity is engaged in real economic activity in Bermuda and must comply with those requirements. The ES Act may require in-scope Bermuda-registered entities which are engaged in such “relevant activities” to be directed and managed in Bermuda, have an adequate level of qualified employees in Bermuda, incur an adequate level of annual expenditure in Bermuda, maintain physical offices and premises in Bermuda or perform core income-generating activities in Bermuda. “Relevant activities” under the ES Act include the following: banking, insurance, fund management, financing, leasing, headquarters, shipping, distribution and service center, intellectual property and holding entities. Based on the current guidance issued pursuant to the ES Act, which was revised at the beginning of 2023, the Bermuda Registrar of Companies will consider “relevant activities” to be carried on as a business by an entity, and so view that entity as within the scope of the ES Act, whether or not the entity earns any gross revenue in respect of such activity during the relevant financial period.

Both Credicorp Ltd. and Credicorp Capital Ltd. are Bermuda exempted companies, so the ES Act applies to them. Both companies are also considered “pure equity holding” entities under the ES Act. All entities subject to the ES Act that undertake “relevant activities” including all “pure equity holding” entities, must file annually with the Registrar of Companies an Economic Substance Declaration (the “ESD”), providing information in relation to the previous financial year (relevant financial period). The ESD will require the disclosure of certain key information applicable to an analysis of economic substance requirements. Pure equity holding entities are currently subject to reduced economic substance requirements, including the requirement to have adequate people for holding and managing equity participations, and adequate premises in Bermuda. An entity conducting the relevant activity of having a headquarters in Bermuda which generates gross revenue is required to satisfy the requirements under the ES Act in respect of that activity for that relevant financial period. However, an entity that earns no gross revenue in respect of such activity in any relevant financial period will not be required to satisfy the requirements under the ES Act in respect of that activity for that relevant financial period.

The Registrar of Companies is responsible for monitoring and enforcing the economic substance regime. The ES Act provides for civil penalties, subject to rights of appeal, of up to US$250,000 for non-compliance with the applicable economic substance requirements. If, after the applicable civil penalties have been exhausted, an entity continues to fail to comply, the Registrar of Companies may apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda for an order in such terms as it thinks fit. This may include an order to strike the entity off the Register of Companies. The ES Act also criminalized knowingly providing false declaration information to the Registrar of Companies, which is punishable by penalties of up to US$10,000, imprisonment for two years or both.

Other offshore jurisdictions released similar legislation that affects some of our offshore entities (including ASHC in the Cayman Islands). This other legislation imposes similar requirements and penalties.

The announcement and implementation of the discontinuance of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) may result in differences in the calculation of the applicable interest rate or payment amount depending on the terms of the governing instruments and increase operational and other risks to us and other industry participants.

The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which regulates LIBOR, announced in July 2017 that it would no longer require banks to submit rates for LIBOR beyond 2021. Following a consultation process, on March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (IBA) announced that it would cease publication of most LIBOR settings on December 31, 2021, with the exception of U.S. dollar LIBOR setting for overnight and 1, 3, 6 and 12 month periods, which will continue to be published until June 30, 2023. The FCA has advised IBA that it has no intention of requiring it to publish any LIBOR settings beyond the cessation dates for such settings. As a result of these announcements, regulators and market participants in various jurisdictions have been working to identify alternative reference rates that are compliant with the standards of the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO). In the United States, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (the ARRC), a group of market participants organized by the Federal Reserve and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, has recommended the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as its preferred alternative benchmark rate for US dollar LIBOR. U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies have also issued guidance on planning for and implementing a successful transition from LIBOR to SOFR.

Nonetheless, since LIBOR was referenced in hundreds of trillions of dollars of global transactions in a broad range of financial products, its discontinuance may result in differences in the calculation of the applicable interest rate or payment amount depending on the terms of the governing instruments and increase operational and other risks to us and other industry participants.

Since the first half of 2018, Credicorp has had a multidisciplinary group working to define and execute a transition plan away from LIBOR and into SOFR and other alternative reference rates. This group has Credicorp’s CFO and BCP’s Head of the Treasury Division as senior sponsors. The group has measured exposure and risks of the transition in terms of products, clients, funding, contracts, and infrastructure, among others. For each exposure, we have established an individual plan aligned, as far as possible, to the recommendations published by the ARRC and we are starting to execute them.

Table of Contents

In addition, in November 2021, the SBS recommended that supervised institutions not offer new contracts using LIBOR as a reference rate and that they instead use robust market-standard alternative rates. Considering these developments, we decided to follow the SBS’s recommendation and have stopped offering products indexed to LIBOR, instead using SOFR as our main alternative reference rate since January 2022. Nevertheless, we continue monitoring other benchmark rate(s) that could gain acceptance as LIBOR replacements as well as our exposure, along with any new risks that may emerge in connection with new developments and the release of information.

During the transition, infrastructure and contracts have been the biggest challenges, along with ongoing changes in the market. In 2022, we worked on various fronts to address the transition, such as improving and testing data and systems, defining and applying fallback language for the main template agreements of our financial products (now including most contracts where we assume a liability and for new client loans originated at BCP) and coordinating across all relevant teams.

We consider Credicorp’s net exposure to LIBOR to be non-material, as it represents approximately 0.55% of our assets and 0.14% of our liabilities, as of December 31, 2022.

It may be difficult to serve process on or enforce judgments against us or our principals residing outside of the United States or to assert claims against our officers or Directors.

A significant majority of our Directors and officers live outside the United States (principally in Peru). Most of our assets and those of our principal subsidiaries are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or our principals to initiate a civil suit under the United States securities laws in United States courts. We have also been advised by our Peruvian counsel that judgments or decisions obtained under the United States federal securities laws may not be recognized and enforceable in Peru unless certain requirements under Peruvian law for so-called exequatur proceedings, including as to jurisdiction, due process and consistency with Peruvian law, are deemed to have been satisfied. Similarly, our Bermuda counsel have advised us that courts in Bermuda may not enforce judgments obtained in other jurisdictions, or entertain actions in Bermuda, against us or our Directors or officers under the securities laws of those jurisdictions. In addition, judgments of United States courts obtained in actions under the United States federal securities laws may not be enforceable in other non-U.S. jurisdictions in which we or our principals operate or have assets.

In addition, our Bye-laws contain a broad waiver by our shareholders of any claim or right of action, both individually and on our behalf, against any of our officers or Directors. This waiver limits the rights of shareholders to assert claims against our officers and Directors for any action taken by an officer or Director. It also limits the rights of shareholders to assert claims against officers for the failure of an officer or Director to take any action in the performance of his or her duties, except with respect to any matter involving willful negligence, willful default, fraud, or dishonesty on the part of the officer or Director. As a result, it may be more difficult for our minority shareholders to assert claims against us, or our Directors and officers, as compared to the shareholders of a U.S. company.

Industry and Market Risks

We operate in a competitive environment that may limit our potential to grow and may put pressure on our margins and reduce our profitability.

BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco have experienced increased competition, including increased pressure on margins. This is primarily a result of the following:

•

Highly liquid foreign-owned commercial banks and microfinance institutions in the market;

•

Local and foreign financial services, wealth management and capital markets institutions, with substantial capital, technology, and marketing resources; and

•

Local pension funds that lend to BCP Stand-alone’s corporate customers through securities issuances.

Larger Peruvian companies have gained access to new sources of capital through the local and international capital markets, and BCP Stand-alone’s existing and new competitors, including non-banking institutions such as fintech companies, have increasingly made inroads into the higher margin, middle market, and retail banking sectors. Such increased competition has affected BCP Stand-alone’s loan growth as well as reduced the average interest rates that BCP Stand-alone can charge to its customers.

Competitors may also dedicate greater resources to, and be more successful in, the development of technologically advanced products and services that may compete directly with BCP Stand-alone’s and Mibanco’s products and services. Such competition would adversely affect the acceptance of BCP Stand-alone’s and Mibanco’s products and/or lead to adverse changes in the spending and saving habits of BCP Stand-alone’s and Mibanco’s customer base. If competing entities are successful in developing products and services that are more effective or less costly than the products and services developed by BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, BCP Stand-alone’s and Mibanco’s products and services may be unable to compete successfully. BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco may not be able to maintain their respective market shares if they are not able to match their competitors’ loan pricing or keep pace with their development of new products and services. Even if BCP Stand-alone’s and Mibanco’s products and services prove to be more effective than those developed by other entities, such other entities may be more successful in marketing their products and services than BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco because of their greater financial resources, higher sales and marketing capacity or other similar factors.

Table of Contents

We also face increasing competition from non-banking competitors in markets for some of our products and services. These non-banking competitors, including fintech and startup companies and other technology companies, have emerged in recent years as digitalization has played a larger role, and these competitors may adversely affect our results of operations. Some of these competitors operate under different or reduced levels of regulation in comparison to the regular banking supervision that applies to BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco. Therefore, these non-banking competitors are not subject to the same specific solvency or liquidity requirements as banks.

As of March 31, 2023, Yape and Plin, which is a functionality in the mobile app of different banks in Peru that allow it users to transfer money using phone numbers, became interoperable as BCRP stipulated through Circular No. 0024 and in July 2023, that all other financial institutions with mobile wallets should be integrated to this interoperability initiative. With interoperability, the risk of increased competition for Yape arises. For more information about this initiative, please see “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECT – 5.D Trend Information – Market Conditions".

As a result of Peru’s better economic growth, some international banks and microfinance institutions have sought and obtained authorization to open representative offices in Peru. With the increased competition, more individuals will have access to credit, and the percentage of the population using banking services will likely climb. This also will eventually put downward pressure on interest rates. Any negative impact on BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco as a result of increased competition could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. For further detail about the competitive market in our LoBs, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B. Business Overview – (5) Competition”.

Our business and results of operations could be negatively impacted by another wave of COVID-19, a new variant of COVID-19, a different pandemic outbreak or other public health crises beyond our control.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. This extremely rare event, the likes of which had not been seen in over 100 years, forced governments around the world to take important measures to mitigate contagion, such as the closure of international borders, severe mobilization restrictions and lockdowns. As a result, global gross domestic product (GDP) contracted sharply in 2020 (lowest since the Great Depression of 1929) and the economies in which Credicorp operates (mainly Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile and Panama) were severely affected by two factors: (i) the effect on the global economy (such as the economic growth of our main trade partners like China and the United States, as well as lower commodity prices, mainly metals and oil), during the first half of 2020. At the worst of the crisis, WTI oil prices fell around 80% YTD and copper 25% YTD); and (ii) the local effect of government measures to stop the COVID-19 outbreak, such as quarantines, forced economic shutdowns, and populist initiatives. In 2020, GDP fell 11.0% in Peru, 6.0% in Chile, 7.1% in Colombia, 8.7% in Bolivia and 17.7% in Panama.

Table of Contents

Major disruptions for exchange rates and global capital flows were triggered by the pandemic. The value of emerging markets currencies against the US dollar, including those from Latin America, dropped substantially. The Brazilian real (BRL), Mexican Peso (MXN), Colombian Peso (COP) and Chilean Peso (CLP) all reached historic highs (lower value) at the beginning of the pandemic. The last two, COP and CLP, have recently depreciated to new highs against the US dollar due to idiosyncratic problems. In October 2021, the Peruvian Sol weakened to its highest level against the US dollar.

To mitigate the negative effects of the pandemic on health and economic outcomes, governments around the globe made ample use of drastic fiscal measures that consisted of additional spending or forgone revenue, including direct transfers and tax relief measures, and provided liquidity support, through loans and government guarantees (like the “Reactiva Program” in Peru). Central banks delivered massive monetary stimulus by reducing policy rates to the zero lower bound in most developed and emerging economies and announcing quantitative easing programs to purchase sovereign and corporate bonds. Furthermore, in Bolivia, Chile and Peru early withdrawals from pension funds were approved as a source of relief for households.

These measures, however, came with a cost. Lower economic growth and higher spending weakened debt metrics significantly and caused credit rating agencies (CRAs) to issue many sovereign downgrades. According to Kramer (2021), between January 2020 and March 2021, three CRAs issued a total of 99 sovereign rating downgrades on 48 countries, affecting 35% of their rated sovereign portfolio. For instance, between 2020 and 2022, Chile’s sovereign credit rating was downgraded by one notch by Fitch and S&P to A- and A, respectively; Colombia lost its investment grade rating from Fitch and S&P; Perú and Panamá suffered downgrades from the three agencies and are now two and one notch above investment grade, respectively, when we consider the lowest rating of the three CRAs.

Another wave of COVID-19, a new variant of COVID-19 or a different pandemic outbreak (whether like COVID-19 or of a more deadly pathogen), would bring risks to the global economy and to Peru’s economy and our operations. A new pandemic, or a new wave of COVID-19 or a variant thereof could again deteriorate fiscal metrics and reduce economic outcomes. Hence, it would put new downward pressure on credit ratings. Actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to this risk may negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As a result of COVID-19, the economies in which Credicorp operates (mainly Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile and Panama) were severely disrupted by two factors: (i) the effect on the global economy (lower economic growth of our main trade partners like China and the U.S.) , as well as lower commodity prices and (ii) the local effect of government measures to stop the COVID-19 outbreak such as quarantines, economic shutdowns, greater fiscal expenditure, higher public debt, and expansionary monetary policy. This pandemic circle that forced lockdowns in the economy with the fall of GDP during 2020, and the increase of public debt to afford COVID-19 programs resulted in a higher Debt-to-GDP rate for almost all countries. These realities, together with the higher fiscal deficit and a very expansionary monetary policy worldwide, have resulted in a high level of global inflation not seen since the 1980s.

Table of Contents

These factors significantly impacted macroeconomic variables in the countries where we operate, which might adversely affect our results. As a consequence, some of the main economic indicators affected include exchange rates, interest rates, credit spreads, commodity prices, GDP and sovereign government debt.

For further detail, see “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.A Operating Results – (2) Political and Macroeconomic Environment”

Another pandemic outbreak or other international public health crisis may adversely affect the credit risk of Credicorp’s loan portfolio. Resulting temporary closures, mobility restrictions, increases in unemployment rates and insufficient liquidity could negatively affect our business volume and the portfolio quality of our credit and investment portfolios.

Additionally, our insurance business may be impacted negatively given the possible increase in the level of claims, mainly in the life and health segment.

Regarding our pension fund business, possible government measures or pension reforms may lead to higher demand for early redemptions from clients, which could impact our revenues through a reduction in the management fees.

Prolonged economic stress and market disruptions may generate pressure on our liquidity management and lead to increased volatility in financial markets, such as disruption in fixed and equity income global markets (resulting in the fall of stock prices, including the price of Credicorp). Moreover, the increase in liquidity risk may result in limited and/or costly access to financing sources, an inability to access capital markets, an increase in draws of outstanding credit lines and a change in the expected level of cash inflow as consequences of large-scale changes to loan interest rates or other terms.

In terms of non-financial risks, the contagion of a disease may affect our ability to continue operating. Additionally, the possibility of lockdowns may cause some of our suppliers to stop providing us with services for business continuity.

Our financial statements, particularly our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, could be exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and exchange controls, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Since January 1, 2014, the functional currency of our financial statements has been the Sol; however, the Group’s subsidiaries generate revenues in Soles, US Dollars, Bolivian Bolivianos, Colombian Pesos and Chilean Pesos. As a consequence, the fluctuation of our functional currency against other currencies, or any exchange controls implemented in the countries in which we operate, could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents

Except in specific circumstances, the Peruvian government generally does not impose restrictions on companies’ ability to transfer Soles, US Dollars or other currencies from Peru to other countries, or to convert Peruvian currency into other currencies. Nevertheless, Peru has implemented restrictive exchange controls in its history, and the Peruvian government might, in the future, consider it necessary to implement restrictions on such transfers, payments or conversions. For further information, see “ITEM 10. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION – 10.D Exchange Controls”.

The interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets, and the interest expense we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities, could be affected by changes in domestic and international market interest rates, which are sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including monetary policies and domestic and international economic and political conditions.

We have implemented several policies to manage the interest rate risk exposure and seek proactively to update the interest rate risk profile to minimize losses and optimize net revenues; however, sudden and/or significant volatility in market interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. For further information, see “ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT – Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates.”

We also face foreign exchange risk on credit that we extend through our banking business, which is primarily conducted through BCP Stand-alone. To address this risk, BCP Stand-alone identifies borrowers that may not meet their debt obligations due to currency mismatches, by performing sensitivity analyses of the credit ratings of companies and the debt-service capacities of individuals. Then, we classify borrowers according to their level of foreign exchange credit risk exposure. We monitor these clients, and, on an ongoing basis, we revise our risk policies for underwriting loans and managing our portfolio of foreign currency-denominated loans. However, these policies may not sufficiently address our foreign exchange risk, resulting in adverse effects on our financial condition and results of operations.

We have taken steps to manage the gap between our foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities in several ways, including closely matching their volumes and maturities. Nevertheless, a sudden and significant depreciation of the Sol could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. For further information, see “ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT – Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk”.

Liquidity risks are inherent in our business activities.

Liquidity risk is the risk of being unable to meet funding obligations as they come due, to capitalize on growth opportunities as they arise or pay dividends without incurring unacceptable losses, costs or risks. This risk is inherent in any retail and commercial banking business and can be heightened by a number of factors such as over-reliance on a particular source of funding, changes in credit ratings or market-wide phenomena such as market dislocation. The Group's liquidity arises primarily from customer deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and investment securities, net cash flow from operating activities and other sources. We must maintain sufficient funds to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers.

Table of Contents

Our liquidity, business activities and profitability may be adversely affected by an inability to access the debt capital markets or to sell assets during periods of market-wide or firm-specific liquidity constraints.

Our ability to borrow on a secured or unsecured basis, and the cost of doing so, can be affected by increases in interest rates or credit spreads, a downturn in the geographic markets in which our loans are concentrated, the availability of credit, regulatory requirements relating to liquidity or the market perceptions of risk relating to us, certain of our counterparties or the banking sector or the financial services sector as a whole, including our perceived or actual creditworthiness, as well as other factors that may be outside our control. An inability to obtain financing in the unsecured long-term or short-term debt capital markets, or to access the secured lending markets, could have a substantial adverse effect on our liquidity. In challenging credit markets, our funding costs may increase or we may be unable to raise funds to support or expand our businesses, adversely affecting our results of operations.

If we are unable to raise needed funds in the capital markets (including through offerings of equity, regulatory capital securities and other debt), we may need to liquidate unencumbered assets to meet our liabilities. In a time of reduced liquidity, we may be unable to sell some of our assets, or we may need to sell assets at depressed prices, which in either case could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

The Group relies significantly on its deposits for funding.

The Group benefits from short-term funding sources, including primarily demand deposits, securities lending and time deposits. The Group's ability to generate deposits depends on its reputation, customer service, and competitive pricing. Our access to deposits may also be affected by the liquidity needs of our depositors, particularly in an inflationary environment where they may be compelled to withdraw deposits in order to cover rising expenses. As a part of our liquidity management, we must ensure we can respond effectively to potential volatility in our customers’ deposit balances.

Although we have been able to replace maturing or withdrawn deposits and advances historically as necessary, we might not be able to replace such funds in the future, especially if a large number of our depositors, or depositors with high deposit balances, sought to empty their accounts in a short period of time. We could encounter difficulty meeting a significant deposit outflow, which could negatively affect our profitability or reputation. In circumstances in which our ability to generate needed liquidity is impaired, we may need access to non-core funding such as borrowings from the BCRP, and other emergency sources. While we maintain access to these non-core funding sources, some sources are dependent on the availability of collateral and the counterparty’s willingness and ability to lend. Any long-term decline in deposit funding would adversely affect our liquidity, and we may not be able to manage the risk of deposit volatility effectively.

Table of Contents

Our investment at fair value through profit or loss and fair value through other comprehensive income expose us to market price volatility, liquidity declines and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which may result in losses that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, our investment at amortized cost may expose us to market price volatility and liquidity shortcomings if sales of those investments become required for liquidity purposes.

Price, liquidity and foreign exchange risks are inherent in the Group’s securities. Our investments at fair value through profit or loss may lead to gains or losses when sold or marked to market. Our investments at fair value through other comprehensive income may require us to record unrealized gains or losses through other comprehensive income when those investments marked to market and in realized gains or losses when sold. Both types of investments at fair value may fluctuate from period to period due to numerous factors that are beyond our control, such as foreign currency exchange rates, interest rate levels, counterparty credit, risks and general market volatility. Losses from trading activities and realized or unrealized losses could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Our investments at amortized cost may lead to gains or losses when sold due to liquidity requirements. These gains or losses occur due to numerous factors that are beyond our control, including interest rate levels, counterparties' credit risk, and general market volatility.

Business Performance Risks

A deterioration in the quality of our loan portfolio may adversely affect our results of operations.

Given that a significant percentage of our income is related to lending activities, a significant deterioration of loan quality would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We are subject to concentration default risks in our loan portfolio. Problems with one or more of our largest borrowers may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. While loan portfolio risk associated with lending to certain economic sectors or clients in certain market segments can be mitigated through adequate diversification, our pursuit of opportunities in which we can charge higher interest rates, and thereby increase revenue may have an impact in the profile of loan portfolio and exposure at risk.

Table of Contents

In addition, loan concentration in commercial sectors is particularly salient in Peru and any significant deterioration in such sectors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. For additional detail on the composition of our loan portfolio see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (7) Selected Statistical Information – 7.3 Loan portfolio and – 7.3.3 Concentrations of loan portfolio and lending limits”. Our current strategy includes increasing our exposure to market segments with heightened credit risk, including middle-market and consumer segments, such as unsecured small companies and consumer loans and consumer mortgages, which have higher risk profiles as compared to loans to large corporate customers. Given the changing composition of our loan portfolio and the possible adverse changes in the environment in which we operate, our future results may differ significantly from our past results.

Finally, the Group relies heavily on the use of models all throughout the credit management process (prospecting, admission, portfolio monitoring and collection). This requires a comprehensive governance framework seeking excellent standards in the construction and monitoring of these models. Those standards mitigate the impact that severe or unexpected changes in the macro and micro economic environment could have on the risk quality of our portfolio, especially in the consumer and SME segments.

Errors or inaccuracies in models can generate adverse economic impacts

Model risk is defined as the possibility of incurring in economic losses due to bad decisions that are made based on erroneous or imprecise models. Deficiencies at the model level may be generated by problems with data quality, methodologies, implementations and/or uses. This risk is relevant because Credicorp uses models in processes relative to credit acceptance, portfolio follow-up, provisions, pricing, internal calculations of economic capital and other aspects. In light of the aforementioned, Credicorp mitigates this risk by relying on a specialized management model, adequate governance and a specialized team.

Accurate underwriting and setting of premiums are important risk management tools for primary insurance companies, including Grupo Pacífico. But we face the risks that the estimates underlying our underwriting and premiums may be inaccurate.

Grupo Pacífico’s operating performance and financial condition depend on its ability to underwrite and set premium rates accurately across a full spectrum of risks. In order to be profitable, Grupo Pacífico must generate sufficient premiums to offset losses, loss adjustment expenses and underwriting expenses.

To price premium rates accurately, Grupo Pacífico must:

• Collect and analyze a substantial volume of data;

• Provide sufficient resources to its technical units;

• Develop, test, and apply appropriate rating formula;

• Closely monitor changes in trends in a timely fashion; and

• Predict both severity and frequency with reasonable accuracy.

Table of Contents

If Grupo Pacífico fails to accurately assess the risks that it assumes, or does not accurately estimate its retention, it may fail to establish adequate premium rates. Failure to establish adequate premium rates could reduce income and have a material adverse effect on our operating results or financial condition. Moreover, there is inherent uncertainty in the process of establishing life insurance reserves and P&C loss reserves. Reserves are estimates based on actuarial and statistical projections at a given point in time of what Grupo Pacífico ultimately expects to pay out on claims and of the related costs of adjusting those claims, based on the facts and circumstances then known. Factors affecting these projections include, among others: (i) in the case of life insurance reserves, changes in mortality or longevity rates, interest rates, persistency rates and regulation; and (ii) in the case of P&C loss reserves, morbidity, changes in medical costs, repair costs and regulation. Any negative effect of inaccurate estimates or projections on Grupo Pacífico could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

While reinsurance is an important tool in risk management of any primary insurance company that enables risk diversification that in turns helps to reduce losses, we face the possibility that the reinsurance companies will be unable to honor their contractual obligations.

Credicorp assumes reinsurance risk in the normal course of business for our insurance contracts when applicable. Premiums and claims on assumed reinsurance are recognized as revenue or expenses in the same manner as they would be if the reinsurance were considered direct business, considering the product classification of the reinsured business.

While Credicorp’s internal requirements in regard to reinsurer counterparty credit risk, as set by Grupo Pacífico’s risk management unit and approved by the Risk Committee, are more stringent than local regulatory requirements and include diversified placement of reinsurance, a failure by one or more of our counterparty reinsurance companies to honor their contractual obligations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks not contemplated in our insurance policies may affect our results of operations.

We maintain insurance in amounts that we believe to be adequate to cover risks related to our operations, including, among others, internal and external fraud, computer crime, professional liability for services we provide, Directors and officers liability and general liability against general claims involving bodily injuries and property damage. However, it is possible that the terms and conditions of the insurance policies we have will not cover a specific event or incident, or that our insurance will cover only part of the losses that we may incur. The insurance policies of Credicorp and its subsidiaries are contracted with Grupo Pacífico. Grupo Pacífico reinsures the policies in the cases it deems appropriate due to the materiality of the risk.

Table of Contents

The adoption of IFRS 17 may impact our results of operations.

IFRS 17 is an international standard regarding insurance contracts that was issued by the International Standards Board in 2017 and is intended to provide transparent reporting about a company's financial position and risk. The IFRS 17 standard requires a company to measure its insurance contracts using updated estimates and assumptions that reflect the timing of cash flows and any uncertainty relating to those insurance contracts. Compliance with IFRS 17 will therefore result in fundamental changes in the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of information on insurance and reinsurance contracts, as well as in their related processes. Insurance contracts combine financial and service characteristics and, in many cases, generate long-term variable cash flows. To properly reflect these characteristics, IFRS 17 combines the measurement of future cash flows with the results of the insurance contract during the period in which the service is provided and requires the presentation of the financial results of the provisions for the service. This allows Companies, through the choice of an accounting policy option, to recognize such financial results in the income statement or in other financial results. IFRS 17 is effective for financial reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

With the participation of the business units involved in the relevant processes, the Group has been making adjustments to its processes, architecture, controls and corporate governance in order to implement the IFRS 17 standard, as well as to prepare the necessary financial and management reports. In addition, the progress achieved was also presented to the Audit Committee.

To assist with implementation of this process, the Group made the decision to use the computer platform of Fidelity National Information Services (FIS), a provider specializing in insurance business worldwide, and has been supported in its implementation by firms such as Deloitte and Management Solutions, based in Spain. The implementation includes extensive tests performed regarding the accounting of insurance contracts under IFRS 17. In parallel, the progress of the work has been presented to external auditors.

IFRS 17 is expected to have the following business-specific impacts depending on the type of risks present in the relevant business:

•

P&C Businesses Risks: The Group expects a reduction in insurance liabilities due to reserves discount, which is expected to be low given the current interest rate environment as well as the nature of this risk in terms of the reserve duration.

•

Life Businesses Risks: The Group anticipates that there will be an increase in insurance liabilities related to the interest rates effect and to the constitution of an explicit future profit margin known as the contractual service margin. The variation in reserves, as a result of discounting liabilities for reserves, will result in a decrease in equity.

Finally, management of the Group constantly evaluates the impacts on the presentation and disclosure in the Group’s Financial Statements related to insurance operations and believes that the Group’s implementation of the IFRS 17 standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s regulatory capital needs.

Acquisitions and strategic partnerships may not perform as expected, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Acquisitions and strategic partnerships, including those made in our investment banking and wealth management, insurance and microfinance businesses, may not perform as expected since our assessment could be based on assumptions with respect to operations, profitability and other matters that may subsequently prove to be incorrect. Future acquisitions, investments and alliances may not produce the anticipated synergies or perform in accordance with our expectations, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operation.

For example, in 2020, the Group recorded a gross impairment loss totaling S/64.0 million (equivalent to US$17.7 million or 68,134 million Colombian Pesos (COP)) for its investment in Mibanco Colombia (formerly Bancompartir) as a result of its assessment of the recoverable amount. In this assessment, the fair value of Mibanco Colombia was estimated to be 366,691 million COP (equivalent to US$95.7 million or S/346.5 million), which was less than its book value of 434,825 million COP (equivalent to US$113.4 million or S/410.6 million). In 2021 and in 2022, the Group did not record any gross impairment loss. For further detail, please see Note 11(b) (Intangible Assets and Goodwill) to the consolidated financial statements.

Credicorp’s increasing investments in digital transformation and disruptive initiatives may fail to achieve the ambitions, efficiencies and other performance improvements that it is pursuing.

As part of its transformation strategy, Credicorp is increasing investments in developing digital capabilities such as IT, data analytics and cybersecurity. The Company is attracting digital talent, evolving its agile culture to maximize client experience and strengthening its self-disruptive mindset. Moreover, Credicorp is increasing its investments in innovation and disruptive initiatives. The Company may fail to achieve ambitions related to acquisition of clients, income generation, efficiency and other performance improvements described in “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (1) Credicorp Overview”.

Credicorp continues to invest in its technology and digital capabilities across its franchises, including digital platforms and cloud-based solutions. Credicorp has also been pursuing productivity and operational performance improvements through evolving its diverse business models. For example, in microfinance, Mibanco has leveraged data and analytics to develop centralized credit assessment capabilities and generate loan offers to current clients and has leveraged alternative channels such as mobile banking, call center, home banking, among others to increase loan disbursements. In addition, Credicorp has been making other investments in new ventures within its LoBs, such as our Yape mobile application, and through its corporate venture capital center Krealo, which is investing in startup fintech such as Tenpo SpA (Tenpo), Credicorp Capital Negocios Digitales S.A.S. (Tyba), Compañia Incubadora de Soluciones Moviles S.A. (Culqi) and Wally POS S.A.C. (Wally), among others. For additional detail about Credicorp Innovation strategy and our investment in disruptive initiatives please see ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (1) Credicorp Overview – Our Innovation Strategy.

Table of Contents

If Credicorp fails to adequately invest in its digital and innovation strategy, our ability to compete or to provide superior customer experience could be adversely affected. There is no guarantee, however, that these or other initiatives at Credicorp will achieve the ambitions, efficiencies, profitability or other performance improvements that the Company is pursuing or that they will have any benefits at all.

Furthermore, Credicorp´s digital investments involve execution complexity, and could result in additional losses, charges or other negative financial impacts. For example, Credicorp may not be able to achieve its objectives related to monetization of disruptive initiatives.

Credicorp’s digital investment and other initiatives may continue to evolve as its business strategies, the market environment and regulatory expectations change, which could make the initiatives more costly and more challenging to implement and limit their effectiveness. Moreover, Credicorp’s ability to achieve expected returns on its investments and costs savings depends partially on factors that it cannot control, including, among others, interest rates; inflation; impacts related to the pandemic; customer, client and competitor actions; and ongoing regulatory changes.

Our ability to pay dividends to shareholders and to pay corporate expenses may be adversely affected by the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us.

As a holding company, our ability to make dividend payments, if any, and to pay corporate expenses will depend upon the receipt of dividends and other distributions from our operating subsidiaries. Our principal operating subsidiaries are BCP Stand-alone, BCP Bolivia, Mibanco, Grupo Pacífico, ASB Bank Corp., Prima AFP and Credicorp Capital. Subject to certain minimum liquidity, reserve, and capital adequacy requirements under applicable regulations, we are able to cause our subsidiaries to declare dividends. If our subsidiaries do not have funds available, or are otherwise restricted from paying us dividends, we may be limited in our ability to pay dividends to shareholders. Currently, apart from the minimum capital requirements, there are no restrictions on the ability of BCP Stand-alone, BCP Bolivia, Mibanco, Grupo Pacífico, ASB Bank Corp., Prima AFP or Credicorp Capital to pay dividends abroad. In addition, our right to participate in the distribution of assets of any subsidiary, upon any subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization (and thus the ability of holders of our securities to benefit indirectly from such distribution), is subject to the prior claims of creditors of that subsidiary, except where we are considered an unsubordinated creditor of the subsidiary. Accordingly, our securities will effectively be subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries, and holders of our securities should look only to our assets for payments.

Table of Contents

Since our main Peruvian subsidiaries pay dividends considering the accumulated results shown in the financial statements prepared under local GAAP applicable to financial entities, there could be differences between local GAAP and IFRS. The main difference between these is concentrated in the application of IFRS 9, for both the methodology used to determine the provision for credit losses in loan portfolio and for the determination of financial income for loans. For 2022, the application of IFRS 9 resulted in provision reversal for credit losses in the loan portfolio being S/318.0 million lower than under local GAAP and income tax being S/93.8 million higher than under local GAAP. The effects of these differences, net of income tax, resulted in net profit being S/224.2 million higher under IFRS than under local GAAP.

Finally, the value of any dividend paid by our operating subsidiaries that declare dividends in a currency different from Credicorp’s dividends (such as ASB Bank Corp., BCP Bolivia, Credicorp Capital Holding Chile, and Credicorp Capital Holding Colombia) is subject to the impact of the depreciation of the dividend’s currency against Credicorp’s functional currency. This depreciation would have a negative impact on our ability to pay dividends to shareholders. For further details about Credicorp’s Dividend Policy refer to “ITEM 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION – 8.A Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information – (3) Dividend Policy”.

Operational Risks

A failure in, or breach of, our operational or security systems, fraud by employees or outsiders, other operational errors, and the failure of our system of internal controls to discover and rectify such matters could temporarily interrupt our businesses, increasing our costs and causing losses.

The risk of security breaches is present due the constant adoption of technologies and the interoperability between them, digital profiles and digitalization of processes, as well as in the data transfer between remote workers, cloud servers and office workers because of the transition to a more permanent hybrid workforce. Likewise, cyber risk could cause a significant loss of customer data or confidential information, loss of revenue, loss of customers and legal risks, which would directly affect our business and operation. In addition to this, the increased use of information technologies (IT) and other IT resources can increase both technological risks as a result of some failure or problem in the management of technological tools, and operational risks due to deficiencies or failures in the processes or resources.

We also have third-party services that store, transmit and process our confidential information and that of our clients, which constitutes the outsourcing risk. In addition, we have seen an increase in recent years in the number and sophistication of cyberattacks not only against financial institutions but also their providers worldwide. These cyberattacks have used new techniques and tools and exploited previously unidentified vulnerabilities, and there can be no assurance that we or our service providers will successfully prevent or detect all cyberattacks that could affect our business.

Our anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures might not prevent third parties from using us as a conduit for such activities, which could damage our reputation or expose us to fines, sanctions or legal enforcement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operation.

As financial institutions, our subsidiaries must comply with significant anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing laws and regulations, as well as applicable international standards and recommendations such as the ones provided by the FATF and local directives. In line with these requirements, our group has developed a comprehensive risk-based approach strategy to implement an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CTF) Program, that seeks to prevent third parties from channeling illicit funds through Credicorp. At Credicorp, our financial institutions have continued to face many of the AML/CTF risks such as fines, commercial sanctions, or legal enforcement.

In Peru, the SBS published the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Financing of Terrorism (AML/AFT) Risk Management Regulation in 2015 (SBS Resolution No. 2660-2015 and subsequent amendments), which includes provisions that extend the duties and functions of the Compliance Officer, make clear the obligation of companies to carry out customer classification under strict terms, establish enhanced due diligence for high risk customers and set out the guidelines for transferring funds, as well as many other specific details for daily transactions. These guidelines result in higher operational costs, due to the significant investment in technology required to keep up with the strict terms of the regulation.

Environmental, Social and Governance Risks

Natural disasters in Peru could disrupt our businesses and affect our results of operations and financial condition.

In Peru, we are exposed to risks of natural disasters that in some cases may be exacerbated by climate change, such as floods, mudslides and droughts. We are also exposed to disasters unrelated to climate change, such as earthquakes. Earthquakes in Peru are common occurrences as the country is located in a seismic zone: the interface between the Nazca and South American tectonic plates. Peru has been adversely affected by earthquakes in the past, including a 7.9 magnitude earthquake that struck the central coast of Peru in 2007. The country is also vulnerable to the El Niño Phenomenon (El Niño), an oceanic and atmospheric phenomenon that causes a warming of temperatures in the Pacific Ocean and provokes heavy rains off the coast of Peru that may result in floods and mudslides in the north and central Andean regions. Due to its very strong intensity, the 1997-1998 El Niño destroyed crops and infrastructure equivalent to 2.2% of Peru’s GDP. In early 2017, El Niño adversely affected agricultural production, transportation services, tourism and commercial activity, caused widespread damage to infrastructure, displaced many people and resulted in a deceleration of growth from 4.0% in 2016 to 2.5% in 2017. According to Peru’s fiscal council, El Niño caused US$6.2 billion in damages (equivalent to 2.9% of Peru’s GDP) in affected regions in the first half of 2017 through damages to bridges, roadways, housing, and educations services, among others.

Table of Contents

At the beginning of 2023, heavy rains have intensified in many areas on the North Coast of the country due to unusually warming of temperatures in the Pacific Ocean and the wake of cyclone Yaku. This scenario has caused river overflow risk, mudslides, floods, lack of food and water in some towns. In addition, The National Service of Meteorology and Hydrology of Peru (Servicio Nacional de Meteorología e Hidrología del Perú or SENAMHI by its Spanish initials) and The National Study of the El Niño Phenomenon (Estudio Nacional del Fenómeno El Niño or ENFEN by its Spanish initials), local climate events specialist, maintained a state of “El Niño costero alert” since it expects El Niño conditions (warmer than normal superficial sea temperatures) to continue developing at least until July this year, and in its april 12th report estimated a moderate magnitude. The same institution had estimated a higher probability of a phenomenon of weak magnitude in its march 30th report. While the actual magnitude of this weather phenomenon this or next year is still highly uncertain, it will continue to negatively affect Peru’s GDP from time to time and may affect the financial situation of some of Credicorp’s clients and the quality of our loan portfolio.

Additionally, similar natural disasters, or other types of disasters, could impair our operational capacity. Our business continuity plans include emergency response, disaster recovery, operations continuity, crisis management, data protection and recovery, and critical systems redundancy. Although we test our business continuity plans annually, these plans may prove to be ineffective, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to carry out our businesses, especially if an incident or disaster affects computer-based data systems or damages customer or other data. In addition, if a significant number of our employees were affected by the natural disaster, our ability to conduct business could be impaired. Our subsidiary Grupo Pacífico is further exposed to risks associated with natural disasters due to the policies that it underwrites. To protect Grupo Pacífico’s solvency and liquidity, our insurance business historically has reinsured substantial portions of its earthquake-related risks through automatic quota share and excess of loss reinsurance; however, there can be no assurance that a major catastrophe would not have a material adverse impact on our results of operations or financial condition or that our reinsurance policies will be an effective hedge against our exposure to risks resulting from natural disasters.

We may incur financial losses and damages to our reputation from environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks. In recent years, these risks have been recognized as increasingly relevant since they can affect the creation of long-term value for stakeholders of the Company.

In recent years, these risks have been recognized as increasingly relevant since they can affect the creation of long-term value for stakeholders of the Company. Environmental issues may affect our businesses, mainly our banking and asset management business, as the relationship with some of our clients may be damaged if the Company is perceived as not being environmentally responsible. Also, we may suffer from reputational risk if the projects or companies we finance, or invest into, cause environmental damage. Among these issues, climate change is an important matter to Credicorp, potentially exposing the organization to physical and transition risks, which may impact traditional risks, such as credit, operational, reputational and others.

Social issues related to managing employees, customers and/or communities’ relationships may affect our business mainly through talent or capabilities deficit, high training costs, compliance failures, operational inefficiencies, and reputational risks. And finally, corporate governance issues may affect our business mainly through reputational risk, if we are perceived by stakeholders as a company that has any controversy related to transparency, Board structure and remuneration or stakeholder governance.

KEY INFORMATION – 3.A Selected Financial Data” and “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS”.

On December 20, 2017, Credicorp’s Board of Directors resolved to organize Credicorp’s subsidiaries in four LoBs: Universal Banking; Microfinance; Insurance and Pensions; and Investment Banking and Wealth Management. These changes took effect on April 1, 2018. During the same year, the Corporate Venture Capital Arm of the group was formed, developing Krealo in March 2018.

Universal Banking

On April 18, 2018, Credicorp Ltd., through its subsidiaries Grupo Crédito S.A. and BCP Stand-alone, acquired 3.23% and 0.06%, respectively, of the share capital of Mibanco from minority shareholders for approximately S/129.0 million and S/2.4 million, respectively. Additionally, on May 22 and 23, 2018, BCP Stand-alone acquired 1.22% and 0.05%, respectively, of the share capital of Mibanco from minority shareholders for approximately S/47.3 million and S/1.9 million, respectively. These acquisitions of non-controlling interest were recorded as equity transactions. Through these acquisitions, Credicorp Ltd. increased its interest in the share capital of Mibanco from 93.18% to 97.74%.

On May 7, 2018, Credicorp Ltd. sold to its subsidiary Grupo Crédito S.A. 220,113,636 shares of BCP Stand-alone owned by Credicorp Ltd., which represented 2.77% of BCP Stand-alone’s share capital. The amount paid per share was S/6.61. Following this sale, Credicorp, in conjunction with its subsidiary Grupo Credito, continued to own 97.7% of the shares of BCP Stand-alone.

In July 2022, Grupo Crédito S.A. established Yape Market S.A.C, a company focused on the promotion and management of sales and placement of products and services through electronic means. Grupo Crédito S.A. currently owns a 99.99% stake in Yape Market S.A.C.

Microfinance

On June 28, 2019, Credicorp Ltd., through its subsidiary Credicorp Holding Colombia S.A.S., reached an agreement with the majority shareholders of Banco Compartir S.A. (Bancompartir) to acquire a majority stake in Bancompartir, which provides microfinance and SME financing solutions to micro entrepreneurs and was one of the top four microfinance banks in Colombia. On December 2, 2019, Credicorp Ltd. announced that after obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals, it completed the acquisition of 77.46% of the capital stock of Bancompartir for approximately US$76.0 million, as part of Credicorp Ltd.’s strategy of expanding its microfinance business in Latin America.

Table of Contents

On October 30, 2020, Credicorp Ltd. confirmed the merger of Bancompartir and Edyficar S.A.S. (Encumbra), to be integrated under the name Mibanco – Banco de la Microempresa de Colombia S.A. (Mibanco Colombia). The merged entity had a consolidated loan portfolio of more than US$270 million as of December 31, 2020. Its operating model focuses on achieving financial inclusion and social development serving and accompanying small and micro entrepreneurs in line with the business strategy proposed by Credicorp.

Insurance and Pensions

In 2015, Grupo Pacífico signed an agreement with Banmedica to participate as equal partners in the health insurance and medical services business. Grupo Pacífico transferred the majority control of the Pacífico Seguros corporate health insurance business and medical services to Banmedica. In 2018, UnitedHealth Group, one of the world's largest healthcare companies, acquired Banmedica, becoming Pacífico’s new partner in Peru. Consequently, the Pacífico Seguros’ corporate health insurance business and medical services are no longer consolidated with Grupo Pacífico for accounting purposes and are reported as an investment in associates.

Investment Banking and Wealth Management

During 2012, Credicorp initiated the creation of a regional investment banking platform. During the same year, the firm acquired a 51% stake in Correval S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa in Colombia and 60.6% of IM Trust S.A. Corredores de Bolsa in Chile. In 2013, Credicorp Capital Peru was created and included Credicorp Capital Bolsa, Credicorp Capital Titulizadora, Credicorp Capital Fondos and BCP Stand-alone’s investment banking activities. On September 30, 2016, Credicorp Capital Peru concluded the acquisition of the remaining stake in Correval S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa in Colombia and IM Trust S.A. Corredores de Bolsa in Chile. As a result of these acquisitions, Credicorp Capital became the owner of 100% of both companies. During these years Credicorp wanted to consolidate the brand name of Credicorp Capital on the whole region, so the group decided to name Correval S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa in Colombia as Credicorp Capital Colombia and IM Trust S.A. Corredores de Bolsa in Chile as Credicorp Capital Chile.

On February 12, 2019, Credicorp Ltd., through its subsidiary Credicorp Holding Colombia S.A.S., reached an agreement with the shareholders of Ultraserfinco S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa, a financial services company in Colombia, to acquire a 100% stake in Ultraserfinco S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa and its subsidiaries, which include 100% of Ultra Holding Group Inc., which in turn holds 100% of Ultralat Group Inc. (including 100% of Ultralat Investment Advisor and 100% of Ultralat Capital Market, LLC. (UCM)), for approximately US$43.0 million. On November 1, 2019, after obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals, the acquisition of 100% of the capital stock of Ultraserfinco S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa was completed through Credicorp Holding Colombia S.A.S. and Credicorp Capital Fiduciaria S.A. Ultraserfinco S.A. Comisionista de Bolsa had several subsidiaries including Ultralat, a company regulated by the SEC. On February 1, 2021, we finalized a merger between CCSI and UCM, which resulted in Credicorp Capital LLC.

Table of Contents

On August 2, 2021, we finalized the merger by absorption between Atlantic Security Bank (Cayman Islands) and ASB Bank Corp. (Panama), with the latter being the surviving entity.

Subsequent Events

•

IFRS 17 is effective for financial statements corresponding to reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and will be applied for the first time in our consolidated statement of financial position on January 1, 2023, which will also restate the financial information of the comparative period. IFRS 17 was issued in May 2017 as a replacement for IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts” and requires a current measurement model where estimates are re-measured in each reporting period. Insurance contracts are measured using the components of:

Discounted probability weighted cash flows;

An explicit risk adjustment; and

A contractual service margin that represents the unearned technical utility of the contract which is recognized as revenue during the coverage period.

IFRS 17 applies to all types of insurance contracts (life insurance, non-life insurance and reinsurance), regardless of the type of entities that issue them, as well as certain guarantees and financial instruments with certain characteristics of discretionary participation. The general objective of IFRS 17 is to provide an accounting model that is more useful and uniform for insurance entities. Unlike IFRS 4, which relies heavily on the application of existing local accounting policies, IFRS 17 provides a comprehensive model for insurance contracts, covering all relevant accounting aspects.

Table of Contents

IFRS 17 will imply fundamental changes in the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of information in insurance and reinsurance contracts, as well as in their related processes. Insurance contracts combine financial and service characteristics, and in many cases, generate long-term variable cash flows. To adequately reflect these characteristics, IFRS 17 combines the measurement of future cash flows with the recording of the results of the insurance contract, during the period in which the service is provided, and requires the separate presentation of the financial results of the results of the provision of the service, allowing companies, through the election of an accounting policy option, to recognize such financial results in the income statement or in other comprehensive income.

Under strict governance and participation of the units involved, the Group has made adjustments to its processes, architecture, controls and corporate governance in order to implement the standard, as well as have the necessary financial and management reports.

In this process, the Group made the decision to use the computer platform of a provider specialized in insurance business worldwide, Fidelity National Information Services, and has been supported by international consultants. The implementation includes extensive tests related to the validation of insurance contracts under IFRS 17 in order to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information to be recorded in the Financial Statements.

The adoption of IFRS 17 will have the following impacts depending on the type of risk in which the Group operates:

Equity Risks: The Group expects a reduction in insurance liabilities as a result of the projection of the claims reserve and its subsequent discount, and a low impact is estimated given the current interest rate environment, as well as the nature of this risk insofar as to the duration of the reservation.

Life Risks: Regarding the Life businesses, the Group anticipates that there will be an increase in insurance liabilities, mainly, due to the establishment of an explicit future profit margin known as the contractual service margin and, to a lesser extent, to the effect of interest rates.

The Group decided to recognize market changes in interest rates in equity. The choice reflects how the Group accounts for its financial assets under IFRS 9. IFRS 17 is effective from the financial statements beginning on January 1, 2023, and the effects of applying it for the first time will be recognized in our consolidated statement of financial position on January 1, 2023, date of initial application, restating the financial information of the comparative period.

Table of Contents

Based on current estimates, the adoption of IFRS 17 is not expected to have a significant impact on net equity on January 1, 2023, which is the initial application date.

On January 13, 2023, Law No. 31670 was published, that allows access to a minimum retirement pension and expands the voluntary contribution alternatives for members of Private Pension Fund Administration System (PPS). The law seeks to improve the pension culture through the determination of retirement targets establishing that:

Affiliates may set a target of provisional saving in their individual funded account.

The minimum pension will be decided by the affiliates, being an amount not less than the basket of basic goods determined by the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics.

Members may use the surplus of the individually funded account (i) by transferring it to their voluntary contributions account for non-pension purposes and freely disposing of it or (ii) by issuing negotiable guarantees for an amount equivalent to the excess of the individually funded accounts. These guarantees have a maturity of two years from their issuance.

Regulations under this new law has been published on April 18, 2023 and the SBS must issue the complementary operational rules for the application of these regulations in the coming weeks.

Sustainability Strategy

Sustainability Governance

For Credicorp, integrating sustainability in the day-to-day management of our businesses is vital to ensuring effective implementation of Credicorp’s corporate sustainability strategy. The sustainability governance structure’s objective is to increase the visibility of sustainability within the organization and establish clear responsibilities for the strategy and its successful execution at the Credicorp and subsidiary levels.

Table of Contents

We opted to add a series of roles to the existing governance structures to drive implementation and align actions at the subsidiary level with the sustainability strategy developed at the corporate parent level. Involving the Board and the leaders of the organization in this process has been key to its success.

Sustainability Governance Structure

	Forum / Team	Description
	Sustainability Committee	The Sustainability Committee reviews Credicorp’s sustainability strategy and initiatives.
	Sustainability Executive Sponsors (CEO, COO)	To ensure that adequate responsibility is assumed for the implementation of the Sustainability Program at the corporate parent level, we designated an executive sponsor to supervise the sustainability strategy. Note that at the subsidiaries’ level, this role corresponds to their respective CEO.
	Sustainability Steering Committee	The objective of this committee is to ensure that the sustainability strategy is adequately executed in all of the subsidiaries and at every level.
	Sustainability Leader at Credicorp	The sustainability leader at Credicorp reports directly to Credicorp’s Sustainability Executive Sponsor (COO) and oversees the Sustainability Office.

For further information about the Sustainability Committee, please see “ITEM 6. DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES – 6.C Board Practices”.

Integrating Sustainability in our Business Model

Implementing our strategy entails integrating sustainability in our business model (products, services, channels, among others). To accomplish this, we work on various platforms associated with each of our strategic pillars:

Below we provide examples of products and services that we develop in each pillar.

Pillar 1: Create a more sustainable and inclusive economy:

At Credicorp, we are conscious that we are a significant player in and have notable shares of the markets in which we operate and, accordingly, must assume a proportionate role in promoting a more sustainable and inclusive economy. For this reason, our main ambitions include diverse efforts to drive the financial inclusion of people, as well as micro and small businesses. Our main initiatives on the financial inclusion front in 2022 included working with IPSOS to develop our second assessment of financial inclusion to measure gaps and monitor the evolution of inclusion in eight countries in Latin America. Additionally, our subsidiaries worked to create solutions that are aligned with our financial inclusion and education objectives, which were rolled out for micro, small and medium businesses and individuals through our main inclusive products: Yape (BCP Stand-alone); Crédito Mujer (Mibanco); Crediagua and microfinance loans (Mibanco); and inclusive insurance (Pacífico Seguros). In this regard, Yape has become one of the main conduits for low-value payments and transfers in Peru. On its part, Credito Mujer empowers female entrepreneurs by providing easier access to loans and financial education, thus helping them to achieve more financial freedom. In addition, Crediagua enables clients in low-income communities to fund necessary sanitary improvements such as access to potable water and sanitation. Finally, Pacifico Seguros offers low-cost insurance to customers in lower socio-economic groups through banking channels (BCP and Mibanco) and raises awareness about insurance products.

Table of Contents

To fulfill our strategic objective to create a more sustainable and inclusive economy, our advances in environmental management are also fundamental. We are working on a corporate environmental strategy and our aspiration is to be our clients’ ally in their transition to more sustainable practices. Through our Sustainable Finance platform, we work to develop and offer financial solutions that motivate our clients to reduce their environmental impact: green financing, eco-factoring, green bonds, sustainable financial products, among others. In 2022, we published our Corporate Policy for Sustainable and Responsible Investment. We seek to be agents of change in the financial market by directing capital flows to sectors that develop increasingly sustainable practices and, in the stewardship front, by providing advice to clients and the companies in which we invest. A key enabler in this regard in our ESG Risk Management, which is transversal in scope and involves multidisciplinary teams with representatives from the Risk, Loan, Business and Sustainability Areas. The focus here is on transition, as opposed to merely identifying exclusions. We approved our first Environmental Taxonomy and developed mechanisms to identify environmental risks in prioritized sectors. For more information regarding environmental risk please see ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.D Risk Factors – “Natural disasters in Peru could disrupt our businesses and affect our results of operations and financial condition” and “We may incur financial losses and damages to our reputation from environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks. In recent years, these risks have been recognized as increasingly relevant since they can affect the creation of long-term value for stakeholders of the Company.” Importantly, we began the base period of our commitment to becoming carbon neutral at our direct operations by 2032 by aligning methods and scopes of measurements across subsidiaries. The assessment of our emissions is developed under the ISO 14064-1, a GHG Protocol compatible standard, and is verified by a third party.

Pillar 2: Improve the financial health of citizens:

Experience has shown us that financial inclusion is highly correlated with financial education, and both are considered fundamental and inherent to our purpose and highly linked to our business model.

Financial education helps people develop a deeper understanding of the financial products and services available in the market so that they can make better decisions. We are convinced that a solid financial culture strengthens Peruvian’s trust of financial institutions, builds their confidence as users and promotes healthy relations with money and the adequate use of financial products and services. Financial education is a key enabler of responsible financial inclusion.

At Credicorp, we have worked on different initiatives for financial education, including (a) mass communication of educational content, (b) on-site and online training programs and (c) education efforts for businesses. Each initiative seeks to impart knowledge and present tools to clients and the public in general to position them to take full advantage of everything the financial system has to offer. We seek to align different initiatives across our subsidiaries, expand our scope using digital channels and key partnerships, and share successful cases that can be replicated at the Group’s companies.

Table of Contents

We seek to build trust and long-term relationships with our clients by improving the simplicity and transparency of our communications and solutions so that clients can understand the conditions and costs attached to our products and services. To this end, personalized solutions and recommendations are provided to help clients achieve their goals and make better financial decisions.

Finally, we believe that our businesses must undergo digital transformation to continue pursuing our purpose to contribute to improving lives and accelerating the changes needed in the countries in which we operate. We have begun implementing our corporate innovation system to strengthen our innovation and entrepreneurial culture at the corporate level, align spaces where we can innovate and optimize returns on our innovation portfolio. This system focuses on the initiatives that are considered the most disruptive, given that they i) seek to generate new sources of income through new business models, ii) can compete with our traditional businesses and/or iii) are supported by the most advanced technological components.

Pillar 3: Empower our people to prosper:

As a Group, we seek to empower people both in and outside the organization so that they can thrive. We promote a diverse and inclusive workforce with equal opportunities to strengthen creativity and innovation, ensure long-term prosperity, and boost our employees’ motivation. For this purpose, we continue to implement our Gender Equality Program, which promotes equitable treatment at every level of the organization. In 2022, we fine-tuned governance of the Gender Equity Program to ensure that its guidelines are more functional and aligned with the decisions and focus of the chain of governance, which includes the Senior Committee for Gender Equity, Credicorp’s Management Committee and the CEOs of each line of business. Together with our efforts to achieve equality at our companies through equitable treatment, we have implemented initiatives to promote the development of our human capital. In a constantly changing environment, our workforce will require critical abilities in the area of digital knowledge, data management and agility. For this reason, the corporate office of Human Management and Development is strengthening training programs to bolster these skills and is working to ensure that the roll out is structured, phased, and organized in every company in the Group. In that sense, in 2022, Credicorp implemented the Credicorp Learning Community to promote the growth and development of our leadership and contribute to accelerating business transformation. The High Specialization Fund was also launched to provided financing at preferential rates to Credicorp’s employees who wish to study at top universities. Also, agility was established as a corporate capability with the goal of accelerating the agile transformation process of Credicorp companies.

We believe that human rights constitute a material issue to business sustainability and as such, have developed and articulated a comprehensive approach to human rights. We included our public commitment in our Code of Ethics and Credicorp’s Board of Directors approved our Corporate Human Rights Policy. This policy was approved in April 2022 and was developed using as an input the framework of the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights of the United Nations (UN).

Table of Contents

In addition, we are committed to promoting spaces and initiatives that empower people by generating conditions for their complete inclusion in society and the economy. At Credicorp, we are aware that the gender gap in the region is significant, and we drive efforts to explore and develop business opportunities with women in mind through the platform “Opportunities and Products for Women”. Four companies in the Group Mibanco Peru, BCP Bolivia, Credicorp Capital and BCP Peru (through Yape) are actively analyzing data on our products to identify gaps or gender differences in client behavior or use of products. This analysis provides valuable information to improve product design and user experiences. In particular, Mibanco Peru has developed Crédito Mujer, which offers microloans to women from the lower income segment and with limited access to financial services in Peru, and Mujeres Pa´lante, which provides financing for working capital and fixed assets to women entrepreneurs in Colombia.

The three pillars described above are aligned with our core business operations and with the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs), specifically with the following SDGs:

SDG and Objectives	PLATFORM AND INITIATIVE	SDG	PLATFORM OR INITIATIVE
5.1 5.2 y 5.5	• Internal Gender Equity Program • Opportunities and products for women	10.2 y 10.5	• Internal Gender Equity Program • Opportunities and products for women • Financial inclusion • Sustainable finance • Social Responsibility • Compliance Policies

		17.3 17.10 17.16 17.17 17.18 17.19	• Sustainable Finance • Financial Inclusion • Financial Education • Social Responsibility • Compliance and ethics

Table of Contents

To achieve our vision of sustainability, we have identified the business initiatives that we must pursue based on their relevance to the market and to the products and services that improve our competitiveness. These efforts ensure that sustainability is at the core of our business model. We have also determined which internal changes must be made to our operating model so that it provides an adequate launchpad for initiatives and catalyzes our impact. The business initiatives are concentrated in platforms while internal changes are situated in enablers.

Integrating Sustainability in our Operating Model

Our enablers are the fronts through which we integrate sustainability in our operating model. They act as levers for the internal changes that the organization needs to make to successfully execute the sustainability strategy. The working fronts that we have prioritized correspond to the main corporate functions at Credicorp:

Operating Function / Area		SUSTAINABILITY ENABLERS
Human Resource Management and Development		Drive change management Build the workforce of the future Champion diversity, inclusion and gender equality
Risks		Integrate ESG factors into risk management framework
Finance		Be a steward of long-term value creation Optimize communications and reporting to capital markets
Compliance and Ethics		Encourage people to do the right thing At Credicorp, we have established a set of fundamental policies, including our Human Rights Policy and our Anti-Corruption Policy, as well as our Code of Ethics.
Corporate Governance		Enhance corporate governance frameworks
Others		Social Responsibility Reduce direct environmental footprint

Our Innovation Strategy

Our digital strategy is fundamental to our goal of successfully executing our purpose, following our values and advancing towards the future guided by our north stars. With an overarching group strategy, we are deepening our digital and transformation processes to capture opportunities efficiently while expanding our total addressable market and strengthening our operational drivers.

Our transformation journey began in 2015, when BCP Stand-alone decided to raise the bar in customer satisfaction while pursing greater efficiency. Later, this path was followed by Grupo Pacífico, Mibanco, Prima AFP and Credicorp Capital. Each of our LoBs has created an independent innovation lab, each of which is part of an innovation unit, and more importantly, has embarked on a cultural and digital transformation.

Throughout all these years we have been innovating by constantly challenging, transforming and disrupting ourselves in order to anticipate and adapt to the increasingly fast changing megatrends that could impact our customers, capture digital opportunities and generate long-term profitability. This has been achieved by the digital capabilities we have been developing such as:

a) Having a self-disruptive mindset,

b) Strengthening an agile and user experience culture,

c) Capturing digital talent, and;

d) Developing solid tech capabilities.

And by leveraging our competitive strengths:

a) Diversified and independent LoBs,

b) Strong brand and extensive network of long-term client relationships,

c) Sound management with resilient track record, and;

d) Solid balance sheet and risk discipline.

During 2022, we started the implementation of our corporate innovation system at the Credicorp Ltd. level. This system is focused on disruptive initiatives; that is, those that (i) are aimed at achieving new revenue streams through new business models, (ii) may compete with our own traditional businesses, and (iii) could rely on heavy technological components. The system is steered by the Chief Innovation Officer (CINO), with the support of the recently created Innovation Management Office (IMO). The CINO and the IMO are in charge of (i) the definition of an innovation strategy at a corporate level, (ii) the management of the disruptive initiative portfolio, and (iii) the development of the necessary enablers to foster and improve innovation efforts. We periodically review and evaluate potential disruptive initiatives so that we manage them within funds, financial limits and metrics structured as a portfolio. The CINO steers this activity, which is performed along with the Finance Department and validated by the Innovation Committee.

Table of Contents

The system and its governance reflect an entrepreneurial and decentralized innovation model. Major decisions around strategy and portfolio management are made by a central Innovation Committee, while the sourcing and development of initiatives are executed by decentralized Innovation Units (IUs), which operate within our LoBs. Thanks to this arrangement, we benefit from, on the one hand, a central decision body that ensures alignment of innovation to corporate goals and enables a fast decision process on the most complex issues; and, on the other, from being close to our customers, leveraging information already managed by our LoBs, and fostering rapid change and adoption in the overall organization.

The Innovation Committee, which is the system’s central body, is composed by Credicorp’s CEO, COO, and CINO as voting members, while Credicorp’s CFO and Krealo’s CEO participate regularly. This committee works closely with, and makes recommendations to, the Board of Directors, which holds the power over material decisions involving innovation strategy and ambition, and key venture graduations (e.g., spin-offs, spin-ins, write-offs, others). The Innovation Committee interacts with other forums through crossed participants and other ways of coordination. For instance, we established the Valuation Committee, which defines the methodologies and parameters for the valuation of ventures. This committee is chaired by the CFO. We also implemented an Innovation Table, chaired by the CINO, which serves as an open discussion and coordination space for the IUs’ leaders. The following picture summarizes the main participants in our innovation system:

The IUs receive different roles depending on their capabilities and the system and LoBs’ needs. Those roles are held by: (i) innovation labs, which focus on inside-out innovation and operate mainly from ideation to the product-market-fit stage; (ii) Krealo, our corporate venture capital arm, which brings outside-in innovation, principally through the acquisition of ventures with some proven market fit; (iii) a special unit that escalates ideas with potential once product market fit has been established; and (iv) some specific ventures that are key to our strategy. For further information see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.A History and development of the Company”.

Table of Contents

In terms of components, our innovation system covers strategic and enabling elements. The strategic elements include innovation domains, innovation ambition and allocation of resources, and governance and performance management. These are necessary to provide guidance to the IUs and structure to the system. The enabling components are topics such as talent, culture, organization, or IT functions.

The innovation domains are spaces in which there might be opportunities to disrupt, given our corporate strategy and priorities, our internal capabilities, and relevant market trends and developments. Thus, they offer visibility to the IUs on where to explore for new initiatives. We organize these domains in three horizons to help structure, prioritize, and take disciplined capital allocation decisions. In horizon 1, we group the domains that are closer to our core businesses and geographies and, thus, are spaces we should mainly strengthen. In horizon 2, we include adjacent markets or niches in which we have identified an opportunity to enter or to reinforce our presence. Finally, in horizon 3, we explore trends with heavy technological components that might completely transform the way we operate.

To achieve our innovation ambition, we have identified limits to track our investment in the disruptive portfolio (including the impact to ROE), ensuring that our profitability and financial health remains in line with our corporate goals. These limits allow us to allocate funds to the horizons, and to either current initiatives acceleration or escalation, or new initiatives origination and development. The Innovation Committee provides the priorities for the assignments of capital, but the LoBs commit the specific funds as part of their strategies and budget needs, in accordance with our entrepreneurial and decentralized innovation system.

Finally, for performance management, we have defined a set of metrics that help us monitor the disruptive portfolio performance and make timely decisions. These metrics evaluate various aspects of our portfolio, which we group into three dimensions: (i) fund activity, which measures the size of the portfolio and the efficiency with which we use resources (time and money) and kill initiatives with little potential; (ii) strategic performance, which reflects, for instance, diversification, generation of incremental revenues and clients to Credicorp and to Credicorp’s LoBs, or speed of escalation; and (iii) financial performance, which, in general, assesses the optimal risk/return profile of our portfolio.

Corporate Venture Capital – Krealo

As part of our innovation efforts at the holding level, in 2018, Credicorp set up Krealo, an initiative that has evolved from our open innovation arm to Credicorp’s Corporate Venture Capital, bringing innovation from the outside-in. Krealo focuses on external innovation by investing in opportunities that complement current and future LoBs. Krealo functions independently to other LoBs, with a similar flexibility to venture capital funds, coupled with the control, network and scalability of Credicorp.

Krealo’s purpose is to identify, screen, and invest in opportunities by building and/or acquiring new features. Krealo currently manages six ventures across Peru, Chile, and Colombia including: Tenpo, which aims to be a neobank, or online bank, in Chile; Tyba, an online digital broker in Colombia, Chile, and Peru; Culqi, an offline and online payments company in Peru; Wally, a point-of-sale (POS) software-as-a-service (SAAS) business in Peru; Sami Shop, an ecommerce platform provider for businesses also in Peru; and Monokera, an insurance technology platform in Colombia. Krealo seeks to create both financial and strategic value for (i) Credicorp and (ii) the ventures:

(i)

Regarding Credicorp, Krealo creates strategic value by:

Boosting Credicorp’s current businesses: As an example, Tyba, through its 100% digital onboarding, allows its users to invest in funds in amounts less than US$25, therefore expanding the total addressable market in the Wealth Management business of Credicorp.

Creating new businesses for Credicorp: Tenpo, which aims to be our neobank in Chile, has become Credicorp’s first step into Chilean retail banking through its product offering. With approximately 2,000,000 registered downloads and more than 1,900,000 clients since July 2019, Tenpo is democratizing financial services in Chile.

(ii)

Regarding the ventures, Krealo creates strategic value by:

Providing independence to the ventures with constant support in areas of expertise including growth, IT, data, cybersecurity, among others.

Table of Contents

Acting as a long-term strategic partner, willing to support ventures with capital and expertise throughout their development.

Offering flexible deal structures with the aim of generating financial and strategic value.

Helping ventures grow faster by offering partnerships with LoBs, regulatory and financial expertise, relationships with industry leaders and the financial ecosystem, and the opportunity to leverage in Credicorp’s distribution channel (both by selling their products through Credicorp channels and selling Credicorp products through the ventures channels).

Krealo seeks to become one of the most relevant actors in the Andean Venture Capital ecosystem by continuing to invest in fintech or startups with financial services angles.

Going forward, our strategic focus is to scale our businesses and increase user engagement. We strive to reduce our customer acquisition costs by leveraging organic channels, as well as partnerships with Credicorp’s companies and other market leaders. Furthermore, we are developing more products within our ventures to improve the stickiness of our solutions, generate cross-selling opportunities and keep our customers within our ecosystem with wider options according to their needs.

The Best Place for The Best Talent

To meet our transformation and growth objectives successfully, we seek to attract and retain the best talent, all while managing their potential, development and succession with a comprehensive value proposition that strikes a balance between human and business perspectives. In 2022, our talent strategy paralleled our business innovation strategy, which is detailed in the previous section, including by focusing on developing and attracting talent with technological and digital capacities while accelerating initiatives for gender equity.

We know that this is a competitive environment for talent and are committed to evolving our model to offer, current and potential employees, opportunities that focus on their personal development, flexibility and wellbeing, including attractive compensation and a hybrid approach for many employees. Our hybrid/remote work from home approach is generating new opportunities and modalities for us by facilitating borderless hiring.

Risk Rating

In March 2022, S&P Global Ratings confirmed the credit rating of Credicorp Ltd. at ‘BBB’ and the outlook as negative. At the same time, as a result of the change in rating and outlook for Peru’s long-term sovereign debt, S&P Global Ratings changed the credit rating from ‘BBB+’ to ‘BBB’ and the outlook from negative to stable for seven Peruvian financial entities, including BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco. In April 2022, Fitch Ratings affirmed Credicorp Ltd.’s risk ratings at ‘BBB’ with a stable outlook. In December 2022, however, Fitch Ratings and S&P Global Ratings changed the outlook for some Peruvian financial entities, including BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, in accordance with the review to the Peruvian long-term sovereign rating, from stable to negative. Despite the change in Credicorp risk rating, Credicorp has a solid balance sheet and funding management. Therefore, this change does not represent a significant change regarding the balance sheet or funding management.

BCP Stand-alone Strategy

Through BCP Stand-alone’s strategy we aim to: (i) be number one in customer experience and (ii) have the best efficiency ratio in Latin America.

Experience:

•

Deepening our connection to communities: We do business taking into consideration our role in the society and our different stakeholders.

•

The best experience: We offer a WOW experience in each touchpoint with our customers; and aim to provide solutions to their needs; and to support them at critical moments.

Efficiency

•

New sources and optimization of income: We continually develop new products and services to serve our customers and provide financial solutions to more Peruvians. In addition, we focus on optimizing our current revenue streams to their highest potential.

•

The most efficient bank in the region: We optimize our products and processes with an overall portfolio perspective. We incorporate technology and innovation to offer the most cost-efficient option.

We work to develop key internal capabilities, our enablers, that will help us to stay on course towards our ambitions. Our enablers are:

•

IT: We seek to bring value to the market by increasing the amount, quality, and speed in our tech releases.

•

Data and Analytics: We seek to capture and exploit data in the most effective and intelligent manner.

•

Cybersecurity: We are focusing our efforts on the most effective strategies to reduce our exposure to cybersecurity risk.

Table of Contents

We believe that our enablers leveraged by our talent and an agile mindset culture, will allow us to achieve our key objectives.

IT, Data and Analytics:

During 2022, in addition to the improvement of our key mobile app and web channels, we prioritized our operational stability to cope with increased digital transaction volumes.

We continued transforming our legacy technologies using API services, aiming for flexibility, efficiency and less dependency in our core systems, while at the same time, leveraging Development Security Operations (DevSecOps) practices.

We leverage artificial intelligence and advanced analytics to identify and improve the decision-making process of the different businesses of BCP Stand-alone. Our Center of Excellence in Advanced Analytics works closely with the business teams to apply machine learning and advanced optimization techniques. We are developing internal capabilities in cognitive AI techniques to reduce costs and increase customer experience with automatization. We continuously search for new analytics opportunities and the adoption of existing ones to capture the potential of data and analytics in the company.

We use internally developed initiatives to study our customer population (including current customers and non-customers) by using non-traditional data sources, as well as data from our digital channels. The data capture strategies, algorithms and data models support lead generation (for people and enterprises) and updating of customers’ contact information.

Cybersecurity

We are focusing our efforts on the most effective strategies to reduce our exposure to cybersecurity risk and achieve our objective risk appetite at a significantly lower cost, applying the appropriate level of control to the relevant areas of potential risk. For this reason, we maintain an important investment program, which allows us to have the necessary technologies and processes to keep our operations and assets safe.

We have defined the following cybersecurity priorities:

Cybersecurity governance structure: The structure consists of three lines of defense (IT Security, Cybersecurity and Audit). Additionally, we have implemented corporate cybersecurity policies.

Adoption of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) cybersecurity framework (CSF): We have taken the NIST CSF as a base; and, using the U.S. Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) Cybersecurity Assessment Tool, we have performed a self-assessment to determine our risk profile. Based on the results, we are implementing the required controls, as well as a work plan with periodic objectives.

Table of Contents

Awareness program: The technology to prevent cyber-attacks is not enough; the weakest point in an organization is, usually, an internal user incorrectly handling digital tools and exposed to possible cyber-attacks. Therefore, since 2018, BCP Stand-alone has implemented an awareness strategy, defining parameters and best practices to train users to prevent and respond to cyber-attacks.

Cybersecurity risk indicators: As part of the BCP Stand-alone business strategy, cybersecurity risk indicators form a central part of the monitoring and follow-up control of our cybersecurity ecosystem.

Third-party governance: To ensure that the information we share with third parties is handled in accordance with our standards, all third parties are considered an extension of our functions and technological networks; and therefore, we aim to ensure that they adhere to our security guidelines.

Implementation of security technologies: We have a cybersecurity architecture based on technological risks where our technological threat model responds to the constant change in digital paradigms.

Security Assurance: In response to the prevention of cyberattacks, BCP Stand-alone conducts due diligence to promote a correct level of response to new threats.

Secure software development: As part of its digital transformation strategy, BCP Stand-alone ensures the correct delivery of software developments with the highest standards.

To continue satisfactory development of our enablers, we rely on our talent and an agile culture mindset. Therefore, we are attracting, upskilling and retaining diverse tech talent. We recruit and hire specialized data, analytics and IT professionals from Credicorp’s international hubs in different countries on various continents. We offer our tech talent the opportunity to develop leading edge capabilities in an environment in which we aim to lead in technology.

BCP Stand-alone has an agile organization scheme which was consolidated by 1) implementing an agile management model to promote the alignment, prioritization, and accountability of initiatives; 2) developing high performance agile teams that focus on initiatives that improve time to market, productivity and quality in our squads, which are our agile, autonomous and multidisciplinary teams that work within our Tribes and Centers of Excellence (CoEs); and 3) strengthening our chapters, which are highly specialized people that compose our CoEs, by raising the quality level of the service they offer to our squads. Tribes and CoEs are how we refer to our agile organizations dedicated to the creation and evolution of our highly specialized and strategic capabilities.

Where we stand today….

At BCP Stand-alone, we began our transformation process long ago and our digital journey started in 2015 as a fundamental part of our strategy and business development. Today, at BCP Stand-alone, we monitor and manage results and asset allocation by business segments, sub-segments, products, and channels as we seek out opportunities to optimize results.

Table of Contents

Regarding customer experience, our strategy started by improving the basic aspects of the experience. Hence, we worked to reduce the waiting time in agencies, reduce the abandonment of calls in our customer contact center, ensure the stability of the digital channels and finally, reduce complaints. Likewise, we also worked on improving the four pillars of BCP Stand-alone's customer experience, which are trust, products, price and service. To support the service pillar, we assess customer satisfaction, aspire to resolve the main reasons for customer dissatisfaction; and enhance factors that we believe lead customers to promote our business.

We continue to make progress in digitizing our customers by launching new functions and products in our mobile applications. In 2017, retail digital sales represented only 7% of total units sold, but in 2022, our digital sales accounted for over 61% of total units sold, of which products such as advance on wages, savings accounts and Yapecard, which is a digital account enrolled directly from our Yape mobile application, had higher levels of units sold digitally. We have also increased our share of digital clients, which were 23% of individual clients in 2017 and reached 67% in 2022. Digital clients are retail customers who comply with at least with one of three conditions: (i) carry out at least 50% of their monetary transactions through digital channels, (ii) carry out at least 50% of their non-monetary transactions through digital channels, or (iii) bought products digitally in the last 12 months. To achieve these results, we have improved the experience in our digital channels and have increased our mobile banking users from 0.8 million in 2017 to over 5.6 million in 2022. Moreover, in 2017, we launched Yape, which has since become the largest digital wallet in Peru, according to BCP Stand-alone’s research unit, with over 11 million users by the end of 2022. We increased our volume of loans and deposits per employee (by 43% from 2017 to 2022) and reduced our branches (by 25% from 2017 to 2022) placing us among the most efficient financial institutions in Latin America according to BCP Stand-alone’s research unit analysis of the efficiency ratio of its main regional peers. We have also continued increasing our spending and investment in IT (by 116% from 2017 to 2022) to achieve further improvements in our efficiency indicators in the medium term.

(II) BCP Stand-alone’s Business Segments

(II.I) Retail Banking Group (RBG)

As of December 31, 2022, retail banking-related loans represented 50.8% of BCP Stand-alone’s total loans, while retail banking-related deposits represented 64.5% of BCP Stand-alone’s total deposits.

The following table shows the client segmentation for RBG. This segmentation was a result of an analysis that addressed multiple factors such as the size and volume of activity for each client, the clients’ affiliation with other companies or groups and their credit ratings.

Table of Contents

Client Segmentation
Business	Segment	Group	Client Income/Sales/Total debt
Retail Banking Group (RBG)	Individuals	Enalta	Individual monthly income at least S/20,000; or more than US$200,000 in asset under management (not including severance indemnity deposits) in each month for the previous 6 months
		Affluent	Individual monthly income from S/5,000 to S/20,000 in each month for the previous 6 months
		Consumer	Focus on medium- and low-income individuals (less than S/5,000 of individual monthly income)
	SME	Business	Annual sales from S/5.6 million to S/33 million; or total debt from S/1.2 million to S/10 million
	SME	Pyme	Annual sales up to S/5.6 million; or total debt up to S/1.2 million

Customer satisfaction at RBG

In 2022, as part of our continuous improvement processes, we evaluated various factors that we could improve to provide the best retail banking service in our markets. In collaboration with Bain & Company, creators of the net promoter score (NPS), we changed our customer satisfaction measurement methodologies as follows:

• We began using the NPS as a new core indicator. We previously used the CSAT (T2B) index to monitor the quality of our customer experience. We believe that the satisfaction element of this index was more focused on specific experiences, while NPS focuses on the recommendation and construction of a more long-term relationship associated with loyalty.

• We began using a new methodology for collecting information about customer satisfaction. Our customer satisfaction surveys are now limited to the main clients of the most important banks in the market, and are considered “blind studies”, as the client is not told which bank commissioned the survey that he/she is answering. By focusing on the experience of the customers most related to each bank, this methodology is expected to result in better quality information and a fairer comparison among competitors.

Individuals’ business segments within RBG are:

Enalta

Enalta services include investment advisory, securities-based lending, financial planning, and day-to-day banking services such as loans and cash accounts. In addition to regular branches, Enalta clients have access to eight exclusive branches (seven in Lima and one in Arequipa), where they are able to make financial transactions in a secure, private space, as well as experience personalized advice of investment, insurance and loan experts who offer exclusive, invitation-only products. Nevertheless, the services mentioned are not only available for the client itself, but also for their household, which allows for additional financial relationships. The Enalta segment has close to 50,000 clients.

Table of Contents

Affluent

Customers in RBG’s Affluent segment receive a differentiated value proposition that includes dedicated remote customer service, such as specialized account managers, preferential service by tellers at branches, an exclusive call center number, and preferential interest rates on loans. Approximately 80% of these clients are serviced through specialized remote account managers responsible for improving per-client profitability and achieving long-term relationships through personalized service, cross-selling, and share-of-wallet strategies. We believe we offer greater personalized services than other banks in Peru, with more products and therefore a stronger value proposition. The Affluent segment has approximately 334,000 clients, of which 273,000 are served by 298 relationship managers.

Consumer Banking

Our Consumer Banking segment is in charge of developing strategies for the retail customers who are not included in affluent banking or small business banking. Its customer base consists of approximately 10.3 million (only considers clients with at least one product) medium-to-low-income individuals. Consumer Banking focuses on customers who receive their payroll through BCP Stand-alone (which represents around 1.4 million clients). Its strategies vary from basic acquisition of new accounts for wage-earners with special terms regarding fees and interest rates, to more sophisticated, aggressive cross-sell and retention programs that may include non-banking benefits (such as access to discounts on non-banking products) and access to payroll advances.

The main products offered to individuals are:

Mortgage

According to the SBS and the Association of Banks of Perú (Asociación de Bancos del Peru or ASBANC by its Spanish initials), as of December 31, 2022, BCP Stand-alone was the largest mortgage lender in Peru, with a market share of 32.08%.

One of the product lines responsible for recent growth in BCP Stand-alone’s mortgage lending to low-income customer is loans funded by the credit program of the Peruvian Housing Development Bank (Fondo MiVivienda). The Fondo MiVivienda credit program provides government-funded loans with down payment aid for the purchase of properties valued up to S/464,200. This program seeks to cover the deficit in housing for lower-income population segments.

According to the Fondo MiVivienda, during the year 2022, BCP Stand-alone made over 4,262 MiVivienda loans, representing the largest number of MiVivienda loans in the financial system. In addition, as of December 31, 2022, BCP Stand-alone had a MiVivienda market share of 31.6% according to SBS and the Association of Banks of Peru (Asociación de Bancos del Perú or ASBANC by its Spanish initials).

Table of Contents

Mortgage loans are associated with low losses because of their low LTV, as they are backed by the home equity guarantee. These loans have the added benefit of generating opportunities for cross selling other banking products.

Credit Card & Consumer Loans

BCP Stand-alone’s current credit card balances increased from S/4,362 million as of December 31, 2021, to S/4,961 million as of December 31, 2022, due the optimization of our risk models and pricing strategy, combined with the implementation of new commercial campaigns. The balances as of December 31, 2022, represent the highest year-end total since our pre-pandemic credit balance levels as of December 31, 2019. In addition, in 2022, average credit card sells grew 38% compared to 2021, and digital channels sales grew 135% compared to 2021. Active credit card holders increased 27% with respect to 2021 and average gross payment volume increased 36% compared to 2021. As a consequence, our credit card market share in Peru increased 51 basis points (bps) from December 31, 2021, to December 31, 2022, according to the SBS and the Association of Banks of Peru (Asociación de Bancos del Perú or ASBANC by its Spanish initials).

At BCP Stand-alone, we are focused on improving the shopping experience of our cardholders. In 2022, we launched Apple Pay with our VISA debit and credit cards, we promoted BCP Mobile Payments, and we carried out a recurring educational campaign to educate our customers on how to enable/disable the option on their mobile banking application so that they can safely make online purchases.

During 2022, consumer loans showed a significant recovery in line with economic reactivation after the COVID-19 pandemic. We achieved record levels of loan origination, with over S/780 million originated in 2022.

At the beginning of 2022, we focused on increasing our product offering to allow more customers to start building a credit record and be included in the financial system. To reach these objectives, we offered 157,947 customers low credit limits and gradually increased limits for customers with good payment behavior. We also improved the evaluation filters to allow customers to access better offers.

We also improved our value proposition by using an elasticity model to set interest rates. Consumer loans without collateral balances grew from S/6,095 million in 2021 to S/8,288 million in 2022 (representing 36% growth), and digital sales accounted for 83% of total loans sold in 2022 (an increase of 6% compared to 2021).

Table of Contents

The SME segments within RBG are:

SME-Pyme

The SME-Pyme segment served approximately 2.0 million clients as of December 31, 2022 (compared to 0.7 million clients in 2021). The increase in the number of clients is due to a migration of clients from Consumer Banking due to a new definition of individuals that qualify as SME-Pyme. The SME-Pyme credit portfolio totaled S/19,243 million as of December 31, 2022 (compared to S/19,787 million as of December 31, 2021), with the decrease due mainly to the repayment of Reactiva Peru (or Reactiva) loans that had been issued by the Peruvian government during the COVID-19 pandemic and the small credit portfolio of clients that migrated from Consumer Banking. Additionally, our SME-Pyme segment had a market share of 20.0% in Peru as of December 2022, according to the SBS. In 2022, we continued to serve our clients while digitizing our processes and systems. Finally, in 2022, SME-Pyme started using the NPS as its new customer satisfaction methodology.

SME-Business

The SME-Business segment served approximately 11,841 clients as of December 31, 2022. In 2022, SME-Business experienced a reduction in loans and deposits, which decreased 19% and 7%, respectively, from December 31, 2021, to December 31, 2022, mainly driven by lower Reactiva Peru loans and deposits. Excluding the effects of the Reactiva Peru Program, SME-Business’s loans balance increased by 6.9% over the same period. According to the SBS and ASBANC, BCP Stand-alone closed October 2022 with 36.99% in loan market share in Peru, keeping BCP Stand-alone in first place in market share. Furthermore, according to our internal customer satisfaction survey led by Ipsos Peru, 85% of our SME-Business clients indicated that they were satisfied or highly satisfied with BCP Stand-alone products and services in 2022 compared to 90% in 2021. SME-Business is migrating to the new NPS methodology and indicator in 2023.

Distribution Channels

Digital channels

Mobile Banking: In 2022, more than 452.9 million monetary transactions were channeled through mobile banking at BCP Stand-alone, which represented growth of 21.34% compared to the number of such transactions in 2021. This growth was driven by client migration to digital channels.

Internet Banking: Transactions through Internet banking at BCP Stand-alone grew 10.07% from 2021 to 2022, with a total of 45.0 million monetary transactions in 2022.

Table of Contents

Yape: Yape registered higher growth in monetary transactions than any of our other channels from 2021 to 2022, reporting expansion of 206.8% in monetary transactions from 391.3 million in 2021 to 1,200.2 million in 2022.

Cocos y Lucas: In December 2019, BCP Stand-alone launched its platform to change soles and dollars, Cocos y Lucas. This offered clients a new alternative for exchange transactions. Transactions through Internet banking at Cocos y Lucas grew 5.8% from 2021 to 2022, with a total of 427 thousand FX transactions, which represented S/879.6 million transacted in 2022.

For more detail about Yape, please see “Retail Banking Innovations”.

Self-service channels

ATMs: In 2022, BCP Stand-alone’s ATM monetary transactions increased 10.39% from 2021 levels. BCP Stand-alone increased its ATM pool by 61 from the end of 2021 to close 2022 at 2,283 units.

Kioskos BCP: Kioskos BCP are digital self-service platforms at which customers can open savings accounts and/or pick up debit cards. Approximately 8.5 million transactions were conducted through Kioskos BCP in 2022, which represented a 28.12% increase from 2021.

Physical channels

BCP Agentes: BCP Agentes are legally separated points of contact at allied SMEs with which we contract to enable our clients to carry out certain transactions. BCP Agentes continue to constitute a highly effective channel for providing services to our clients given their wide availability in Peru. At the end of 2022, BCP Stand-alone had 9,580 BCP Agentes, which reflected an increase of 1,526 BCP Agentes compared to the end of 2021. BCP Agentes conducted 411.6 million monetary transactions in 2022, which represents an increase of 15.22% compared to 2021.

Branches: At the end of 2022, BCP Stand-alone had 336 branches, which represented a reduction of 21 branches compared to the end of 2021. This decline was attributable to an increase in client digitalization levels related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which led us to optimize our network.

Retail Banking Innovations

Yape

In Peru, we offer Yape, an app used to make money transfers and payments through a cell phone. Yape users can send or receive money transfers to their bank accounts linked to their cell phone number and/or a unique QR code, make cell phone credit recharges (Mobile Top-Ups), pay for basic services, request credit, view promotions, and other functions.

Table of Contents

We intend to make Yape into Peruvians’ go-to app. To achieve this, Yape has three main ambitions. The first ambition is to become the main payment network in Peru, competing with cash. To accomplish this, Yape focuses on small-amount payments that are otherwise made in cash. Yape’s second ambition is to be present in its users’ day-to-day lives. Yape’s third ambition is to seek to provide solutions for Yape users’ financial needs. Yape started this journey with the launch of microloans in August 2022.

Yape is Credicorp’s main vehicle to support financial inclusion for the almost two-thirds of Peruvians which today do not have access to banking services in the country. For this purpose, we launched Yapecard, which is a digital account enrolled directly from Yape, in May 2020. Peruvian citizens 18 years of age or older can register with an ID and use Yape without previously owning a BCP Stand-alone bank account (subject to meeting the bank’s compliance criteria). During 2022, Yapecard was a key contributor in the distribution and payment of the Bono 600 and Bono Yanapay bonuses given by the Peruvian government to more than 290,000 Peruvians who were not users of the formal banking system. Yape has also carried out financial education campaigns in seven regions of Peru, allowing us to reach more than 50,000 Peruvians.

As of December 2022, Yape had more than 11 million users, 160 million monthly average transactions, S/66 billion transferred annually, and more than 2.2 million small businesses affiliated. More than 70% (a 30% increase compared to 2021) of Yape clients use Yape regularly for an average of 19 transactions per month (a 58% increase compared to 2021). The average monthly number of new Yape users grew from 288,451 in 2021 to 300,000 in 2022, of whom more than 200,000 were already BCP Stand-alone clients and approximately 90,000 enrolled with a Yapecard.

In late 2021, Yape started its monetization process by launching features that solve users’ day-to-day needs with two main objectives at the core of its design: i) simplicity (always keeping the users’ journey and interface simple and easy) and ii) value (all features adding tangible value to the users and the organization). To achieve these main objectives, during 2022, Yape grew its Mobile Top-Ups business, which was launched in late 2021 to allow users to buy cell phone credit from the Yape app, and on which more than 9.5 million monthly transactions were made in 2022, to become the main top-ups channel for BCP Stand-alone (with a share of 81% of BCP Stand-alone’s mobile top-ups in 2022). The Mobile Top-Ups feature allows Yape to capture income as a share of the interchange fee charged by payment facilitators to merchants. BCP Stand-alone’s other top-ups channels include Mobile Banking (12% of BCP Stand-alone’s mobile top-ups in 2022) and BCP Agentes (7% share).

Yape QR business payments, a feature launched in July 2021, has experienced remarkable growth in just a short period of time. In December 2022, the Yape QR business payments service recorded S/102.7 million in Gross Payment Volume (GPV) and 2.7 million transactions, reflecting significant growth from December 2021, which saw GPV of S/10.4 million and 253,909 transactions. These figures demonstrate a monthly average growth rate of 21% for GPV and 22% for transactions from December 2021 to December 2022, Yape QR business payments had a monthly average of S/40.3 million in GPV for 2022, an increase of 486% from the monthly average of S/6.9 million in the last six months of 2021. In the last six months of 2022, there was an average of 1.7 million transactions per month, reflecting a growth of 933% compared to the monthly average of 167,432 transactions in the last six months of 2021. We believe that both features have achieved initial success in being integrated into a growing share of Yape users’ day-to-day lives. The Mobile Top-Ups feature allows Yape to capture income as a share of the interchange fee charged by payment facilitators to merchants.

To provide customers with more value options and connect them with the financial world, and to consolidate Yape as a digital channel, the following functionalities were launched in 2022: Microloans (August), Yape Promos (September) and Checkout (November). In December 2022, more than 3.4 million Yape clients used one or more of these new features.

(II.II) Wholesale Banking Group (WBG)

As of December 31, 2022, wholesale banking loans represented 46.8% of BCP Stand-alone’s total loans, while wholesale banking deposits represented 33.6% of BCP Stand-alone’s total deposits. WBG competes with local and foreign banks in Peru. WBG’s average daily balances amounted to S/56,470 million in 2022 (a 6.8% increase from 2021), compared to average daily balances of S/52,892 million in 2021 (a 1.6% increase from 2020). It also maintained its leadership in the Peruvian Wholesale Banking market with a 36.9% market share in loans, according to the SBS and ASBANC. It has also established longstanding client relationships with major industrial and commercial groups in Peru. The WBG provides its customers with cash management solutions, short- and medium-term loans in local and foreign currencies, foreign trade-related financing, and lease and project financing.

The following table shows the client segmentation of BCP Stand-alone’s WBG segments. This segmentation was a result of an analysis, which addressed multiple factors such as the size and volume of activity for each client, the clients’ affiliation with other companies or groups and their credit ratings.

Client Segmentation
Business	Group	Client Income/Sales/Total debt
WBG ⁽¹⁾	Corporate	Annual sales higher than $100 million
		(Approximately S/399 million)
	Middle-Market	Annual sales from $10 million to $100 million (Approximately S/ 39 million to S/399 million)

Table of Contents

WBG is divided into the following divisions and support areas:

Corporate and International Division (CID)

The CID served 3,101 clients as of December 31, 2022. The CID provides financing for capital expenditures and investments, sales, international trade, and inventories. It offers medium- and long-term financing, financial leases, and project financing and includes the following subdivisions:

Corporate banking subdivision, which provides loans and other credit and financial services. This subdivision focuses on serving large companies in Peru, which we consider to be those with annual sales of over US$100 million, corporate governance, audited financial statements, and dominant market positions in their particular brands or product areas. Even if clients do not meet any of these criteria, the CID may provide services to firms under this category if they belong to a large economic group of an important industry to Peru’s economy.

International banking and leasing subdivision, which manages relationships with financial institutions (locally and abroad) and provides trade products, international operational services, and financial leasing products.

•

BCP Stand-alone’s Correspondent Banking Unit focuses on obtaining and providing short-term funding for international trade, as well as medium-term lines of credit funded by international commercial banks and other countries’ governmental institutions. This unit also earns fees by confirming letters of credit and guarantees issued by international banks and by providing other international payment and trade finance services. The unit also provides funding to some other Latin American banks which send their international trade and guarantee flows to Peru through BCP Stand-alone. BCP Stand-alone’s Correspondent Banking Unit also promotes international trade activities with its local clients by structuring trade products and services, organizing and sponsoring conferences, and advising customers through a wide range of trade products.

Through the CID, BCP Stand-alone assists its corporate clients with financial services, cash management solutions, and short- and medium-term financing. BCP Stand-alone’s corporate banking loans, measured in average daily balances and including Reactiva program loans, decreased from S/30,801 million in 2020 to S/29,992 million in 2021 but increased to S/33,387 million by December 2022.

BCP Stand-alone has a leading position in the Peruvian banking system with 37.4% of the market share for corporate banking loans, according to the SBS and ASBANC, despite the intense competition of foreign banks that may offer lower rates to the market since they finance their operations at lower costs from their headquarters jurisdictions.

Middle-Market Banking Division (MMD)

The MMD served 7,427clients as of October 31, 2022. Regarding MMD, we note the following:

(i)

The MMD serves mid-sized companies, organizations, and institutions. MMD considers a mix of different characteristics in identifying potential clients, such as annual revenues, financial leverage, overall debt, product penetration, and complexity.

(ii)

MMD focuses principally on serving for-profit and non-profit organizations, state-owned companies, and other significant institutions.

(iii)

Furthermore, the Institutional Banking Unit, which operates within the MMD, serves 1,586 clients throughout Peru. In Lima, a specialized MMD team serves governmental entities, educational institutions, religious organizations, international bodies, non-governmental organizations, civil associations, and regulated entities, such as microfinance institutions, insurance companies, pension funds, and other private funds. BCP Stand-alone has also deployed specialized MMD teams in the largest provinces in Peru. In the smaller provinces in Peru, MMD is supported by the Retail Banking Division team in attending to our customers' needs.

(iv)

The cash management and transactional services subdivision, which operates within the MMD, develops products and services to support clients’ daily cash management activities, collections payments, and investments, among others.

WBG Transformation

As part of WBG's transformation process, we created Tribes that, through the use of the agile methodology, allow us to better understand customer pain points and create new products that help us solve them. These Tribes are:

(1)

Tribe of Business Credit Products: Giving their business clients efficient financial solutions through an outstanding and unique experience that satisfies their main needs.

(2)

Tribe of Transactional Products for Businesses: Giving their business clients integral solutions that simplify their cash management processes and generate customer loyalty.

(3)

Tribe of Digital Platforms for Businesses: Giving their business clients an outstanding and unique digital experience to become their ‘top of mind’ choice.

Our talent, with the support of enablers, has allowed us to develop initiatives to improve the customer experience through more efficient processes and services. In the WBG we aim to address our clients' preferences by improving business profitability, preserving risk quality, and enhancing our digital platforms. Our strategy has been focused on the following points:

•

Collections process enhancement: Due to greater competition in the non-lending business, we have implemented projects focused on digitalizing our clients’ collections journey, providing them with an improved customer experience and maintaining our leadership position in the Peruvian collection market. During 2022, we deployed campaigns to attract new users and worked closely with Yape to enable its application as an additional channel for our Wholesale Banking clients to collect payments from their customers.

•

A unique and powerful digital platform offering: Update of our online banking platform for companies named Office Banking, aiming to deliver the best digital platform in the local financial market that allows us to accompany our clients in all their journeys, offering a digital end to end solution with 24/7 accessibility to our product and services portfolio.

•

Operational stability improvement: We aim to assure the security and availability of our platforms.

•

Financial ecosystems and Open API development: We focus on creating an interconnected services network that allows users to satisfy multiple needs through a single integrated digital experience.

Profitability Management

We elaborated pricing advisory analysis for lending and non-lending products offered to our clients, with the aim to recommend prices based on a 360 view of our clients. In addition, we established monthly management Pricing Committees to help sales teams to implement these pricing recommendations, and to monitor revenues resulting from these actions.

Table of Contents

We also, focused on pricing digitalization to improve customer experience and convenience. Thus, we worked together with Wholesale Tribes to implement a pricing feature on our digital platform for one of our financing products, allowing some of our clients to self-disburse loans at a predefined price, without requiring further manual intervention by relationship managers.

Sustainable Finance

WBG is committed to the sustainability objectives of Credicorp, which intends to create a more sustainable and inclusive economy. In 2022, we offered green financing alternatives to our WBG clients, such as green loans and eco-factoring credit lines, which are working capital credit lines to finance the accounts payable of sustainable suppliers with a special rate with the aims of empowering them to finance projects within particular sectors (specifically, renewable energy, clean transportation, green building and sustainable water resource management), promoting seeking for sustainable utilization of natural resources in their operations and promoting formalization of SMEs. We have granted six green loans for sustainable development projects and initiatives and conducted ESG financing training for the commercial team of the WBG.

(II.III) Treasury

BCP Stand-alone’s Treasury function is divided into four primary units: (1) the ALM Group, (2) the Sales and Trading Unit, (3) the Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Distribution Unit, and (4) the Treasury Tribe.

ALM Group

The ALM Group is responsible for managing BCP Stand-alone’s statement of financial position and for taking reasonable interest rate and liquidity risks under the oversight of our Asset and Liabilities Committee (ALCO). The ALM Group is also responsible for maintaining our investment portfolio, Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and Capital Management. In addition, the ALM Group participates in money and debt capital markets, oversees reserve requirements, and manages BCP Stand-alone’s liquidity. The ALM Group has been active in auctions held by the BCRP for certificates of deposit as well as in financing its funding needs, interbank transactions, guaranteed negotiable notes, and other instruments.

Sales and Trading Unit

BCP Stand-alone’s Sales and Trading Unit manages both foreign exchange and interest rate risk exposure and investments for proprietary positions purposes. The managed risk originates mainly from client liquidity transactions and from open proprietary positions. Market risk exposures and limits are independently defined by the Market Risk Unit and closely monitored by the Treasury Risk Unit. Additionally, an Investor Sales team within the Sales and Trading Unit actively reaches out to institutional investors, providing direct access to market maker prices and liquidity. The Sales and Trading Unit includes both a Foreign Exchange Desk and an Interest Rates Desk that manages risk as follows:

Table of Contents

•

Foreign Exchange: The Foreign Exchange Desk provides liquidity for spot and forward transactions for its clients and other market makers in US Dollar-Peruvian Soles (USDPEN), other Latin-American currencies, and G-10 currencies. The Foreign Exchange Trading Desk also manages foreign exchange volatility book for USDPEN. Additionally, the desk participates in foreign exchange transactions related to different instruments designed by the BCRP to smooth out any currency volatility.

•

Interest Rates (IR): The Interest Rates Desk manages the investments and risk originated from both fixed-income and swap transactions from clients and from proprietary positions. BCP Stand-alone’s fixed-income portfolio consists mainly of government bonds (both in local and hard currency) from Latin-American countries and US Treasuries. The Interest Rates Desk is one of the main liquidity providers in the Peruvian government bond market, where it is a leading participant of the Market Maker Program of the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Peru (MEF).

Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Distribution Unit

BCP Stand-alone’s Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Distribution Unit helps companies with their foreign exchange needs (spot and hedging) through its Distribution Desk. The broad portfolio of foreign exchange products provided to its client base has allowed the Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Distribution Unit to position itself as a benchmark in the foreign exchange business in the Peruvian market.

Treasury Tribe

The Treasury Tribe is responsible for providing technological support to the different units that make up the Treasury function through the enabling of platforms and technological tools; as well as, through the implementation of different initiatives that allow business scalability. The Tribe is made up of six squads — five for the development of initiatives related to products (Exchange, Foreign Exchange & Derivatives, Investments & Funding, Liquidity and ALM) and one for shared requirements across those products.

Role in LIBOR Transition

The Treasury team has been leading the transition process from LIBOR to other references rates. During this process, the group has measured the exposure and risks regarding the transition in terms of products, clients, funding, contracts, training, infrastructure, and other areas.

Table of Contents

BCP Stand-alone has adopted most of the recommendations given by the ARRC convened by the FED. Specifically, Treasury and commercial bank products have been conformed to use SOFR and Term SOFR, administrated by CME Group, as the main alternative floating reference rates. These new alternative rates have been implemented in BCP Stand-alone’s systems that register and valuate contracts. BCP Stand-alone also has adopted the Fallbacks Protocol of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA), amended legacy contracts, and advised its clients about changes in the market and current trends. The Treasury team has also trained the commercial teams and kept them up to date, in order to offer the most accurate information to BCP Stand-alone’s clients.

(III) BCP Stand-alone’s lending policies and procedures

BCP Stand-alone has adopted a risk appetite framework and established objective metrics and thresholds to periodically monitor the Bank’s evolving risk profile. The framework was approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors and is managed and monitored by the Risk Management Division within BCP Stand-alone’s Central Risk Management Group. The adoption of a risk appetite framework reflects BCP Stand-alone’s commitment to aligning its forward-looking business strategy with its corporate risk vision.

BCP Stand-alone’s uniform credit policies and approval and review procedures are based upon conservative criteria. These policies are administered in accordance with guidelines established by the Peruvian financial sector laws and SBS regulations. For further information, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation”.

BCP Stand-alone’s credit approval process is based primarily on an evaluation of each borrower’s repayment capacity and commercial and historical credit behavior. BCP Stand-alone determines a corporate borrower’s repayment capacity by analyzing the historical and projected financial condition of the company and of the industry in which it operates. Other factors that BCP Stand-alone analyzes include the company’s current management and the quality of any collateral to be provided. In addition, BCP Stand-alone’s credit officers analyze the corporate client’s ability to repay obligations, estimate the probability of default of the client using an internal risk rating model, and define the maximum credit exposure that BCP Stand-alone wants to hold with the client.

The process of standardized risk model building, and monitoring based on new sources of information and innovative statistical techniques was crucial to the Group transformation to endure decisions in the credit process, such as admission, monitoring, and recovery. In particular, more complex models with enriched data allow for the inclusion of lesser-known customers into the BCP Stand-alone portfolio and the more precise estimation of income and sales, which otherwise would have been done by physical means. These models are continuously monitored in order to assess their accuracy and are revised if necessary. During 2022, we completed our return to analytic normalcy, by dismantling almost all the assumptions on risk behavior in origination and portfolio segments added during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, in some risk parameters such as LGD, we are using some assumptions made during 2020 which are still deemed adequate under our periodic monitoring. We also continued the development of new admission models based on nontraditional data sources.

Table of Contents

BCP Stand-alone evaluates individual and small business borrowers by considering the client’s repayment capacity, a documented set of policies (including, among other issues, the client’s financial track record and the degree of knowledge of the client) and credit scores, which assign loan-loss probabilities relative to the expected return of each market segment. Nowadays a significant part of BCP Stand-alone’s loan application decisions for individuals and SME applicants, are made through automatic means. However, more sophisticated loans application decisions are made by credit officers who use credit scores and profitability models as inputs for their evaluations. In 2022, BCP’s Credit Risk Department completed its second year operating in an agile framework, in which tribes and squads follow an agile operating model that allows them to plan, prioritize and focus on initiatives that directly contribute to established objectives, providing flexibility and agility, in order to create value for our clients.

Under the agile framework, tribes and squads consist of diverse team members such as risk specialists, data scientists, risk policy implementation members, among others, that previously worked more separately and more remotely in distinct units. Operating under cross-functional squads has created a better understanding and alignment of goals in a timely schedule, through increased and improved communication and collaboration. Squads achieve a faster and more effective exchange of data, information, and knowledge. Consequently, BCP’s Retail Risk Division has used the framework to enhance the bank’s abilities to more precisely and timely identify and assess the specific segments and subsegments that may require adjustments in credit policies and processes in order to be optimally managed.

Our performance in the small business and personal lending areas depends largely on BCP Stand-alone’s ability to obtain reliable credit and client information about prospective borrowers. BCP Stand-alone has a large body of transactional information that is used in credit risk models. Also, the SBS has an extensive credit bureau, which has expanded its credit exposure database service to cover businesses and individuals that have borrowed any amounts from Peruvian financial institutions.

BCP Stand-alone periodically reviews the payment behavior of its diverse portfolios and segments with a deep level of granularity as part of its monitoring process. These assessments allow for the early identification, evaluation and management of changes in credit quality, which leads to a timely evaluation and calibration of the expected loss models. In order to ensure the appropriate levels of accuracy and performance of our admission and behavior models, we keep developing methodological improvements, that include the expansion of our universe of data and variables, as well as the introduction of adjustments for economic trends or volatility (e.g., inflation).

Table of Contents

BCP Stand-alone has a strictly enforced policy that limits the lending authority of its loan officers. It also has procedures to ensure that these limits are adhered to before a loan is disbursed. Under BCP Stand-alone’s credit approval process, the lending authority for WBG is centralized into a specialized credit risk analysis division. This division is operated by officers and committees that have specific lending limits set by client and economic group. Likewise, for RBG, there is another specialized credit risk analysis division that also operates with lending limits by product portfolio. In addition to the controls built into the loan approval workflow systems, the credit risk management divisions and internal auditors regularly review credit approvals to ensure compliance with lending policies.

For the WBG, in accordance with international standards, BCP Stand-alone has established lending authority limits based on risk rating (probability of default) and particular guarantees of the borrower. Requests for credit facilities in excess of the limits set for credit officers are reviewed by the Credits Committee, Executive Committee or, if the amount requested is sufficiently large, by BCP Stand-alone’s Board of Directors. In addition, BCP Stand-alone has concentration limits in the loan portfolio by industry, which is based on its target risk appetite and market share.

BCP Stand-alone believes that an important factor to maintain the quality of its loan portfolio is the selection and training of its loan and risk officers. BCP Stand-alone requires loan officers to have degrees in economics, accounting, business administration or related fields from competitive local or foreign universities. In addition, training for new loan officers begins with a three-month program that covers all aspects of banking and finance. Subsequently, loan officers receive training in specific matters throughout their careers at BCP Stand-alone. Laterally hired officers are generally required to have prior experience as loan officers.

BCP Stand-alone operates in substantial part as a secured lender. As of December 31, 2022, approximately S/ 56.4 billion of its loan portfolio and off-balance-sheet exposure was secured by collateral, which represents 41.9% of its total loan portfolio excluding overseas branch office BCP Panama and overseas agency BCP Miami, as compared to 45.0% in 2021 and 47.2% in 2020. The decrease since 2020 was driven in large part by the repayment of loans guaranteed under the Reactiva Peru Program (which provides coverage of between 80% and 95% of principal value). Excluding loans guaranteed under the Reactive Peru Program, 38.6% of the portfolio was secured by collateral in 2022 as compared to 38.3% in 2021.

Liquid collateral is a small portion of BCP Stand-alone’s total collateral. BCP Stand-alone requires collateral for the extension of credit depending on the risk profile and the business segment of the client, among other factors. When BCP Stand-alone requires collateral, it is usually valued at between 110% and 150% of the principal amount of the credit facility granted. The appraisal of illiquid collateral, in particular real estate assets, machinery and equipment, is performed by independent experts. BCP Stand-alone’s internal audit division conducts selected revisions and analyses on borrowers’ financial statements, consistent with the local banking regulations of the jurisdictions in which it operates.

Table of Contents

In BCP Stand-alone’s credit monitoring unit, we continue to improve the anticipation of credit deterioration for Wholesale Banking and Business Banking customers. In addition to reactive alerts, in 2022 we added anticipatory alerts to our process, which alert about the possible deterioration of clients in the next six to nine months. This model uses transactional flows (cash flows in current accounts, both in and out) as input.

Additionally, we have a sectorial taxonomy for risk management in case of unexpected events. This map is prepared by segmenting the portfolio by economic activities and identifying the risks for each sector. In 2022 we added sustainable activities to this taxonomy, focusing on the environment. In relation to rescheduled loans and loans under the Reactiva 1 and Reactiva 2 programs, we continue to perform quarterly portfolio monitoring for different risk variables in order to identify the level of portfolio risk. These variables include rating, type of credit according to SBS, classification, credit exchange risk, and unique risk, among others. Likewise, we carry out an individual follow-up on a quarterly basis according to the alerts of each client.

BCP Bolivia Strategy

Our purpose is “To Give Opportunities”. We aim to make our stakeholders' dreams possible, encouraging and generating opportunities that allow them to build their future, while contributing to the development and growth of the country.

At BCP Bolivia, we have four key objectives that guide our journey: (i) managing the most profitable loan portfolio among peers, (ii) being number one in customer experience, (iii) being number one in digital solutions, and (iv) being the main payment network in Bolivia. To meet these objectives, we work with two enablers: (i) data and analytics, and (ii) agility.

In order to become the main payment network in Bolivia, BCP Bolivia launched Soli in 2016. Soli has since become our mobile wallet, with which we seek to develop digital ecosystems, promote digital transformation, and lead the world of payments in Bolivia. Today, more than 95% of Bolivians use cash for all their purchases. With Soli, users can now pay their utilities' bills, add credit to their smartphones, make all sorts of payments, and receive money from any bank account or another Soli account. We want to eradicate cash and become an integral part of Bolivians’ daily life with a tool that provides the best payment experience; easy, fast, and free.

Mibanco’s Purpose

Mibanco’s purpose is to transform lives and accompany our clients as they write their success stories. By doing so, we expand financial inclusion in the markets in which we operate. Microfinance is a social business, and its success depends on the social development of our clients, employees, and communities.

Transformation Strategy

Mibanco’s transformation strategy is focused on migrating its traditional business model, which is intensive in people and offices, to a multichannel hybrid model supported by data and analytics. The hybrid model, implemented without compromising Mibanco’s differentiated focus on the customer, has resulted in increased efficiencies, allowing Mibanco to strengthen relationships with its clients, while also expanding its potential reach.

This model is anchored by the high-touch relationship that Mibanco strives to retain with its clients and is based on three main capabilities:

•

Centralized intelligence driving better risk assessment

•

The introduction of alternative distribution channels

•

Impeccable execution by our relationship managers

This new approach will be enabled by a combination of four key areas developed by the best talent:

•

Data and analytics

•

Risk models

•

Cybersecurity

•

IT architecture

We are successfully deploying Mibanco’s transformation strategy, which has resulted in three primary outcomes: (i) increased productivity and capacity to serve more clients, as demonstrated by an increase of approximately 6.6% from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022, in the number of clients served per relationship manager to 179 and an increase of approximately 6.3% over the same period, in the number of loans disbursed per relationship manager; (ii) enhanced experiences for our clients and our colleagues, as demonstrated by increases in both our client NPS and employee NPS, which reached 34% and 60%, respectively in 2022 (compared to 31% and 53% in 2021, respectively); and (iii) sustainable business growth.

In Peru alone, there are over 5 million unbanked entrepreneurs across the country, which we are best positioned to reach based on our countrywide and digital network. We believe there is a comparable market opportunity in Colombia, where has a microfinance sector of similar size to Mibanco Peru ’s loan portfolio but an economy with approximately 1.5 times the GDP of Peru’s. We believe there is an opportunity to replicate, through the “Mibanco Way,” the improvements that we are already seeing in Peru in terms of productivity, cost of risk and efficiency.

2.3 Insurance & Pensions

2.3.1 Grupo Pacífico

(I) Grupo Pacífico Overview

We conduct our insurance business exclusively through Grupo Pacífico, which operates in Peru and Bolivia and is the second-largest Peruvian insurance company by written premiums in 2022, according to the SBS and Peru’s National Health Superintendence (Superintendencia Nacional de Salud or SUSALUD by its Spanish Initials). Grupo Pacífico provides a broad range of insurance products focusing on three business areas: P&C insurance, life insurance, and corporate health insurance and medical services. Grupo Pacífico, like other major Peruvian insurance companies, sells its products both directly (through its own sales force) and through independent brokers, bancassurance, and sponsors.

Grupo Pacífico Purpose

Protect People's Happiness

Grupo Pacífico’s purpose is to protect people’s happiness. Therefore, we aim to increase the reach of our services and products so that we can protect more people every year while providing customer-centric service and an amazing experience, especially in the moments when people’s happiness is most affected. We believe that by fulfilling our purpose, we will support Peru’s development, strengthen our relationship with our community and create a foundation for long-term sustainability.

Grupo Pacífico’s strategy is focused on striving to achieve three pillars:

•

Being the best in growth:

Protecting more customers by developing new products and distribution channels and taking advantage of our Credicorp channels.

•

Offering the best experience

Surprising our customers with an extraordinary journey and by putting them in the center of everything we do.

•

Having the best efficiency ratio in the local market.

To keep leading the insurance market in efficiency so that we can offer the best protection to our customers and value to all our stakeholders.

Grupo Pacífico’s strategy is propelled by the development of key internal enablers:

•

Agile Transformation: Our transformation continued to progress in 2022. As of the end of 2022, Grupo Pacífico had finished implementing its agile operating model at scale and 38% of its employees were working under that model.

•

Data Analytics: We have started the implementation of the core elements of our data lake, a centralized data repository designed to host, process, and protect great amounts of data, that can be later used for business development through analytical models. In addition, we changed the way of working, by going from an analytics team that works in a silo to an analytics specialist that sits inside multiple business teams.

101

Table of Contents

Our enablers are supported by the best talent, and we seek to align profiles and key capabilities by upskilling and reskilling.

Strategic Axes

Digitalization

The need for both digital sales and digital client servicing has scaled significantly as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and has become a part of our client’s basic needs during 2022. Therefore, we keep seeking to be at the forefront of this development. In 2022, Credicorp’s digital premiums, which are the premiums sold through our digital channels, increased by 24% from 2021, totaled S/78 million in 2022, compared to S/62.7 million in 2021.

We also seek to automate our processes. We continue to scale our self-service claim process for our retail home insurance product, a claim process that is supported by artificial intelligence software. We also started to pilot the use of this technology in the auto claim process.

Customer Centric

On the axis of customer-centric services, use of our app, Mi Espacio Pacífico, continues to grow, with an increase of 26% in the number of registered users at year-end 2022 compared to year-end 2021. In addition, our chatbot channel, Vera, resolved over 48,000 customer requests, such as policy downloads, requests for roadside assistance and requests for policy quotes, in 2022.

During 2022, Grupo Pacífico continued to focus on delivering a great experience to its customers and aimed to have the best customer experience in the Peruvian insurance sector as measured by our NPS. Despite the impact of recent COVID-19 waves on our health services, we have 30, plus 14 points, compared to 2019, when we started to track this result. In addition, we received two awards for customer experience in the insurance market: the CX Index, a ranking made by Datum Peru, and CX Index by Activa Perú and Adolfo Ibañez, a university from Chile, and a third award for best experience in digital channels called “Business Creativity” organized by the Peruvian University of Applied Sciences (or UPC by its Spanish initials).

Credicorp Channels

Grupo Pacífico’s digitalization and customer experience are both supported by the development of its digital customer-centric services and taking advantage of the reach provided by Credicorp channels.

102

Table of Contents

Additionally, Grupo Pacifico's focus on leveraging Credicorp channels continues to have positive results. In 2022, Grupo Pacifico's premiums through Credicorp channels, such as BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, increased by 17%, from S/949 million in 2021 to S/1,107 million in 2022. In addition, we continue to expand our digital channels, such as in Mibanco, where digital sales increased by 114.7% from 2021 to 2022, and Yape, where during the last quarter of 2022 we launched our first insurance product, we sold 6.8 thousand personal injury insurance policies.

Nevertheless, the company has continued providing its clients with the services they need. Grupo Pacifico implemented a specialized call center with 14 executives and 2 supervisors, all working on-site, in order to continue providing its clients with the services they need.

(II) Risk Rating

Grupo Pacífico managed to reaffirm the solidity and solvency of the company, maintaining its international credit ratings despite the Peruvian context. AM Best affirmed Grupo Pacífico’s long-term issuer credit rating at “A-” with a stable outlook in December 2022, Fitch affirmed Grupo Pacífico’s credit rating at “BBB+” with a stable outlook in April 2022 and Moody’s affirmed Grupo Pacífico’s credit rating at “Baa2” with a stable outlook in July 2022.

2.3.2 Prima AFP

(I) Prima AFP Overview

Credicorp conducts its pension fund business through Prima AFP, the second largest participant in the pensions business in Peru, as measured by funds, affiliates and collections, according to the SBS. Prima AFP operates through individual capitalization accounts and provides its affiliates with retirement, disability, survival, and burial benefits. For this purpose, Prima AFP collects affiliates’ mandatory and voluntary contributions, and invests the funds in local and foreign financial markets. The funds that Prima AFP holds in custody for its affiliates are non-attachable and are autonomous assets, which are not affected by Prima AFP’s financial results. Prima AFP offers four types of funds, which differ by risk profile and the asset classes in which they invest. The investment and risk management policies are defined by internal committees and supervised by the SBS and the SMV.

In 2022, Peruvian companies continued to face new challenges due to high political uncertainty and the COVID-19 pandemic. The PPS was impacted by the Peruvian government's approval of a new law allowing clients to withdraw part of their funds. The newly permitted withdrawals negatively impacted both the managed portfolio and the financial results of the company; however, in recent months the portfolio has been recovering at a good pace.

Despite these developments, in 2022, Prima AFP continued to focus on:

(i)

Digitalization of the client service model by improving its digital channels and digitalizing several services to give its customers a better experience.

(ii)

Execution of infrastructure and technology projects to improve time to market, simplify technological complexity and take advantage of updated technology.

(iii)

Strengthening cybersecurity by executing an investment plan to reduce the risk of cyberattacks and protect our clients.

(iv)

Improving efficiency by optimizing processes and structures and controlling expenses.

(v)

Operating under an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) model with special attention on (i) responsible investing, (ii) building trust through transparency and simplicity, and (iii) educating society on the PPS.

(vi)

Transition to an agile model.

Distribution Channels

•

Prima AFP’s App: Approximately 5 million sessions were initiated in Prima AFP’s mobile app in 2022, compared to 6 million in 2021. This decrease was due primarily to a smaller number of affiliates having a balance available for withdrawal in 2022.

•

Prima AFP’s Web: In 2022, more than 1 million sessions were initiated through Prima AFP’s web page, which was a similar total to 2021. Users can use the web page to check contributions, find details on fund movements and balances and request a change in fund risk level.

2.4 Investment Banking & Wealth Management

Credicorp Capital carries out its investment banking and wealth management operations in the Latin America region through Credicorp Capital Peru, Credicorp Capital Colombia, Credicorp Capital Chile, Credicorp Capital US, CC Asset Management Mexico, and ASB Bank Corp., which are active in the Peruvian, Colombian and Chilean markets, respectively.

In 2018, we created the Investment Banking & Wealth Management LoB by adding BCP Stand-alone’s Wealth Management Division and ASB to Credicorp Capital to operate as a single regional wealth management model within one business unit. This new structure facilitates sharing of best practices and delivery of a regional value proposition, with ASB supporting all wealth management business units and clients (instead of focusing on Peru-based wealth management customers).

With operations in Chile, Peru, Colombia, Panama, Mexico and the United States, we are consolidating our leadership position through five main business units: Asset Management, Capital Markets, Corporate Finance, Wealth Management and Trust Services. ASB Bank Corp. manages our banking operation in Panama that supports our Wealth Management business, consolidates some of our Capital Markets Trading Strategies and increasingly provides its balance sheet to support our Corporate Finance business unit.

Asset Management

Through our regional platform, our Asset Management business unit offers a wide array of products, including mutual funds, alternative funds, and portfolio management, as well as structured products, to a broad base of clients, including those in our retail, private and high-net-worth, corporate, and institutional segments. We also act as a third-party distributor in Latin America, representing other global asset managers.

Capital Markets

Our capital markets business unit has an active role in secondary markets, particularly with equity and fixed-income products, as well as exchange rate products and derivatives. Our participation in the placement of equity and debt instruments, vis-à-vis our corporate finance team, is also active, especially for corporate issuances in local markets. We also have proprietary investments, with trading books managed in Peru, Colombia, Chile, and Panama.

Corporate Finance

Our corporate finance business unit provides advisory services for the structuring of mid- and long-term financing and the structuring and placement of equity and fixed-income instruments in capital markets. It also offers a wide range of financial advisory services and advisory services for mergers and acquisitions.

Wealth Management

We run a financial and investment advisory model tailored to high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals under a comprehensive value proposition where we offer our clients a broad range of products (including investment advisory, investment management, long-term financial planning, banking services, and credit solutions), an expert advisory model (in which a single relationship manager coordinates the various financial services for their clients) and a multi-platform network that provides access to local, regional and international markets, including the United States.

Trust Services

Through our subsidiaries in Colombia and Peru, we offer products and services focused on the management and future planning of our retail and institutional client’s cash flows. We manage family, corporate, and real estate trusts led by an advisory and structuring expert commercial team, complemented by legal support with specialized knowledge in this business.

(3) Corporate compliance and ethics

Our Compliance and Ethics management system is a key enabler in Credicorp's sustainability framework. We seek to meet the needs both of our businesses and stakeholders through: (i) ensuring the clarity of the terms and conditions of financial products and services, (ii) providing a framework and monitoring it to ensure a good work environment and equal opportunities for all employees, and (iii) ensuring responsibility and integrity through all our businesses.

Credicorp and all its subsidiaries, using a comprehensive approach based on international best practices and our principles and ethical values, have established 11 corporate compliance and ethics programs that cover local and international regulations and mitigate conduct risks by encouraging ethical behavior in order to protect the reputation of the company. These programs are the following:

•

Anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT)

•

Financial stability

•

Fiscal transparency (FATCA & CRS)

•

Regulatory compliance

•

Ethics and conduct

•

Anti-corruption

•

Market abuse prevention

•

Personal data protection

•

Occupational safety and health

•

Market conduct

•

Antitrust

The programs listed above are overseen by the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer who has full autonomy to carry out functions and duties independently. The Chief reports directly to our Board of Directors through the Sustainability Committee, providing regular and consolidated reports about the performance of the compliance and ethics programs at all our subsidiaries. Each subsidiary has a Compliance and Ethics Officer, who works with a specialized team and reports to the head office.

107

Table of Contents

Anti-money laundering and Countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT)

Through this program, we manage all the procedures and policies related to the risks of entrance or movement of money from illicit activities. In 2022, we continued to face the presence of new digital businesses. In this increasingly dynamic context, we have adapted our customer experience and services to all our stakeholders with effective policies, guidelines, and robust AML controls, in order to meet the new demands that are defined by an intensive use of technology as a preferred form of connection. Therefore, we are strongly committed to using innovative technologies for these new business models that present additional challenges to traditional KYC (Know Your Customer) strategies.

Furthermore, all of Credicorp’s subsidiaries have continued to manage the AML/CFT program based on KRIs (Key Risk Indicators), aiming for a solid governance, searching for efficiencies, identifying automation opportunities, and using technology and analytics. We continue directing our efforts to minimize risks, meet our clients’ needs and develop fast and efficient processes that help us achieve our key business goals.

In 2023, we will continue to automate our critical processes, in addition to covering emerging risks related to new products and business models, thus working to ensure responsible business at Credicorp.

Financial stability

Our Financial Stability Program supports our compliance with the applicable regulations derived from the U.S. Dodd-Frank, Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) and the European Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive. During 2021, we focused on carrying out actions for the exchange of information with counterparts regarding the regulations that make up the Financial Stability Program. We also took actions to comply with the requirements of the Initial Margin Rules of the Financial Market Infrastructure Act, which require financial counterparties and large non-financial counterparties with a volume of non-centrally cleared derivatives (AANA) above certain phase-in thresholds to exchange bilateral initial margin from the applicable compliance date.

Fiscal Transparency

The Fiscal Transparency Unit within Credicorp oversees the implementation of two international regulations, FATCA and the OECD’s CRS, which are the global standards for the automatic exchange of financial information between governments and contributes to the global effort against tax evasion and increased collection through exchange of financial information among participating countries. These standards apply to all of Credicorp’s financial institutions. Understanding FATCA and CRS requirements and having a comprehensive tax transparency compliance program are essential for financial institutions to limit non-compliance risk and meet the obligations set out by applicable country Intergovernmental Agreements (IGAs) with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the commitments signed with the OECD. During 2022, Credicorp sent more than 75 FATCA and CRS reports (compared to 80 reports in 2021) to the tax authorities of a total of eight countries, which demonstrates our commitment to international standards for the prevention of tax evasion. This process begins at the moment that the customer is enrolled in our systems and the related Know Your Customer due diligence processes are commenced.

108

Table of Contents

FATCA at Credicorp: Credicorp has investment vehicles located in countries under IGA Model I (Bahamas, Luxembourg, Colombia, the Cayman Islands and Panama), IGA Model II (Bermuda and Chile), and General Regulation (Bolivia, Mexico and EE.UU.). Obligations include complying with client due diligence, client annual reporting and financial counterparties exchange of status information. Peruvian financial institutions comply with all the obligations of “agreement in substance” while the government and the U.S. Department of the Treasury continue with the negotiations to sign an IGA Model I. Given this status, in 2018 the MEF announced that the Annual Client Reporting obligation would be on hold while negotiations continue.

CRS at Credicorp: Credicorp has financial institutions located in countries that started CRS implementation in 2016 (Colombia, the Cayman Islands and Luxembourg), 2017 (Panama and Chile), 2019 (Peru). In the countries that adopted CRS in 2016 and 2017, our main activities will continue to focus on (i) keeping the information of our clients and counterparts updated, (ii) sending annual reports to tax authorities and (iii) completing the certifications and audits according to the laws applicable to each country

In Peru, the implementation of CRS is part of the mandatory requirements of the OECD to grant full membership status to Peru. Therefore, all Credicorp financial institutions in Peru, including BCP, Grupo Pacífico, Mibanco, Prima AFP, Credicorp Capital Bolsa, Credicorp Capital Fondos, and Credicorp Capital Titulizadora, are obliged to comply. As part of these commitments, since 2020, our Peruvian companies have submitted the annual report to the Superintendence of Tax Administration of Peru (Superintendencia Nacional de Aduanas y de Administración Tributaria de Perú or SUNAT by its Spanish initials).

Regulatory compliance

At Credicorp and its subsidiaries, we are committed to complying and following external legal mandates set forth by regulatory entities, such as the SBS or the relevant governments. We seek to ensure the implementation of all the regulatory frameworks applicable to each of the companies, using methodologies with a comprehensive approach based on risk and international best practices in order to reduce risks that would arise from regulatory noncompliance, like sanctions and reputational risks. We keep working to implement our regulatory obligations while remaining committed to the success of our clients, employees, and other stakeholders.

Ethics and conduct

This program manages our Corporate Code of Ethics (the Code) and complementary Ethics Policies to provide guidelines for employees to avoid misconduct and provide tools to properly manage potential conflict of interest scenarios. It is also responsible for the management of our complaints system called Alerta GenÉTICA.

109

Table of Contents

The Code, approved by the Board of Directors, is the conduct reference for Directors and employees, who must comply with it each year. The Code is reviewed periodically, but in 2021 we started an important project to renew our commitment to our stakeholders by updating our Code. This updating process ended in July 2022 when we launched our new code campaign "Ethics to the Next Level", under which we seek to position the Code at the top of minds of our employees. Our main message is that our new Code will allow us to take our ethics to the next level because it helps us to act correctly, not only by complying with the rules but out of conviction, to achieve a positive impact on our environment. Among the most important campaign initiatives are the following:

Live broadcasts of General Managers together with the Compliance and Ethics Managers where the importance of the Code was reinforced and the campaign launch video was broadcast.

“Leadership to the next level” event where managers from the different business units discussed the most important aspects of the Code applicable to leadership. More than 500 leaders from all over Credicorp participated in this event.

Branding of main offices of Empresas Credicorp in which several interaction events were carried out; more than 1500 employees participated.

Landing webpage to provide more than 1,500 Credicorp leaders with important information about the Code and with a group activity that they can carry out with their teams.

Videos and digital communications to raise awareness of the Code’s main features.

During 2022, we updated our Code of Conduct for Suppliers and Third Parties because we seek for the third parties with whom we interact to share our values of respect, fairness, honesty and sustainability. This document is aligned with the Sustainability approach and our new Code of Ethics, and reinforces topics such as Human Rights, Social Responsibility and Occupational Health and Safety.

To manage potential conflict of interests, Directors and employees must submit relevant information periodically, including their outside business activities. We also have policies to manage operations between Credicorp's related parties, where relevant transactions are disclosed to the Sustainability Committee and to other stakeholders. In 2022, we updated the guidelines to manage potential conflicts of interest.

We also continuously foster awareness of our “Alerta GenÉTICA” ethics and compliance hotline through communication campaigns and training and encourage stakeholders to use the hotline.

In 2022, we released our first public human rights statement and began a human rights risk assessment. As part of the process, trainings and workshops were carried out for the leaders of the main areas involved, such as Labor Relations, Credit Risk and Purchases Negotiations, to establish the risks and their impact so that their contributions and those of their teams can be made from a human rights perspective.

Anti-corruption

At Credicorp and its subsidiaries, we are aligned with the United Nations SDGs, adopting a zero-tolerance attitude towards corruption and applying policies to promote a fair and equitable environment, in order to encourage changes in society and value relationships based on integrity.

In this sense, we are respectful of the regulations aimed at strengthening prevention and investigation mechanisms that contribute to the fight against corruption, such as Law 30424 in Peru with its regulations and amendments, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and the UK Bribery Act. At Credicorp, there is no tolerance for corruption.

Credicorp's Corporate Policy to Prevent Corruption and Bribery provides guidelines to all Credicorp subsidiaries to ensure transparent relationships with their stakeholders, minimize related risks, and comply with local and international regulations. This policy has been implemented through the development of a prevention model in each of Credicorp's subsidiaries, focusing on four fronts:

•

Risk Assessments

•

Training and Awareness

•

Continuous monitoring

•

Supervision

As part of the efforts of the Corporate Anti-Corruption Program, which is a Credicorp unit, both BCP Stand-alone and Pacífico Seguros have obtained the ISO 37001 - Anti-Bribery Management System certification; likewise, as part of the company’s strategy, Mibanco aims to achieve the same certification next year.

BCP Stand-alone also holds the Anti-Bribery Certification "Empresarios por la Integridad" in Peru, which uses a process based on third-party audits to demonstrate compliance with anti-bribery requirements at an entity-wide level.

Market abuse prevention

Through Credicorp’s Market Abuse Prevention program, guidelines and controls are established to prevent insider trading and market manipulation.

As a result of risk assessments performed in 2021 in one of our subsidiaries, in 2022 we were able to implement guidelines and alerts to mitigate risks of insider trading and market manipulation in our Investment Banking business.

Furthermore, Credicorp Capital Colombia confirmed its compliance with the Asset Manager Code of the CFA Institute, being the fifth subsidiary of Credicorp to comply with the Code, along with Prima AFP, Credicorp Capital Peru, Pacífico Seguros and Credicorp Capital Chile.

Personal data protection

At our companies, we strive to protect and ensure the privacy of our users’ personal information. We guarantee absolute confidentiality and use the highest security standards in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Law No. 29733 and the related regulation, approved by Supreme Decree, No. 003-2013-JUS (the “Personal Data Protection Statutes”).

Our companies, as so-called personal data bank owners, must comply with these rules’ guiding principles for the protection of personal data. Also, as personal data bank owners, we are required to secure the consent of the personal data owners to process and transfer their personal data, taking into account the provisions of the Personal Data Protection Statutes, which are part of Credicorp's internal compliance policy.

We ensure the exercise of protected rights that may be exercised by the personal data owner. To this end, we must make available channels, procedures and information to tend to these requests within the timeframes established under the Personal Data Protection Statutes and the rules.

Consequently, our corporate personal data protection policy has the following goals:

Establishing general guidelines for the processing and transfer of personal data of stakeholders such as employees, users, customers and suppliers of all our companies.

Ensuring that our companies comply with the Personal Data Protection Statutes.

Advise all employees of our companies of the impact of non-compliance with the applicable standards of personal data protection.

Occupational safety and health

Credicorp has an Occupational Health and Safety Program, the purpose of which is to guarantee and maintain safe and healthy environments for all employees, suppliers, visitors, and customers to prevent work accidents and occupational diseases.

Credicorp redefined its occupational health strategy in 2022, focusing on prevention and health promotion campaigns that promote employee self-care, through various activities such as dissemination of communications, videos, training, among others.

Table of Contents

In the occupational risk prevention area, this year Credicorp is working on the continuous improvement of its processes seeking to timely identify the conditions that represent a potential risk to the safety and health of its employees, through inspections of work environments at a national level.

Market conduct

Credicorp’s market conduct program is aimed at promoting good business practices with customers, mitigating the risk of marketing and design of products that do not meet the needs of clients, ensuring information transparency, giving clarity of the terms and conditions of financial products and services and properly managing claims for customers. These actions allow us to encourage ethical behavior, in order to protect the reputation of the company and achieve sustainable relationships with our customers.

During 2022, we implemented new regulatory requirements related to an update of Peru’s Usury Law Regulation, which establishes maximum interest rates for consumer products and eliminates certain commissions. We also deployed new controls to ensure compliance with market conduct regulations.

Antitrust

Reinforcing Credicorp's commitment to compete freely in the markets where it operates, since the end of 2021, Credicorp has decided to formalize and begin the implementation of its Antitrust Compliance Program. With the assistance of EY in elaborating a risk matrix in 2021 at BCP Stand-alone, the main processes with exposure to free competition risks were identified. During 2022, teams related to those processes were trained and preventive monitoring of compliance was implemented.

In 2020, INDECOPI, the regulatory entity of the Law for the Repression of Anticompetitive Conduct, issued a compliance guide that companies can use as a reference to implement their prevention model. BCP Stand-alone decided to adopt this standard to implement the program. Of the eight elements considered by the model, BCP Stand-alone has implemented seven of them so far: (1) Tone from the top, (2) Appointment of Compliance Officer, (3) Risk Management, (4) Controls and Protocols, (5) Training, (6) Monitoring, and (7) Complaints System.

(4) Internal Audit

In 2022, our internal audit unit focused on creating a permanent risk-based framework to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of Credicorp’s risk management, control, and governance processes. The unit’s objectives are improving and protecting the corporation’s value through an agile and timely independent assessment, as well as data-based advising and risk analysis. For this purpose, our internal audit unit formulated the Annual Audit Plan using a risk-based audit methodology, which is aligned with the rules of The Institute of Internal Auditors Global (the “IIA”) and approved by the SBS.

113

Table of Contents

This year, we defined our new purpose, mission and vision:

•

Purpose: To protect Credicorp's sustainability.

•

Mission: To ensure and advise continuously and dynamically on strategic issues and key risks, through the intensive use of technology, data, innovation, anticipation and motivated talent.

•

Vision: To be a leader in the audit practice at a global level, oriented to our purpose.

We will pursue our purpose, mission and vision through the development of actions and plans based on four pillars:

Role positioning

Digital transformation

Culture and talent

Management Optimization

As in 2013 and 2018, in April 2022, we once again obtained the International Quality Certification for the Internal Audit Activity with a rating of "General Compliance" granted by the IIA in the External Quality Assessment, in accordance with IIA Standard 1312. This level of compliance, the highest according to the governing body's methodology, demonstrates that the Internal Audit function complies with the Fundamental Principles for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing, the definition of the profession, the Code of Ethics and the Standards issued by the IIA. Likewise, for the twelfth consecutive year, we carried out an Internal Quality Assessment, in compliance with IIA Standard 1311, the result of which was "Generally Compliant" in the application of the Quality Assurance and Improvement Program.

We have adopted the Ambition Model developed by the Netherlands Institute of Internal Auditors. To do this, we established the potential level and the gaps to be covered to move from the Integrated to the Managed level in the four key activities: internal audit services and functions, professional practices, performance management, and people management and governance.

During 2022, the Credicorp Corporate Auditor continued his role as a member of the Board of IIA Global, the highest governing body of the institution, and member of its Audit Committee. The Board is made up of 17 representatives of the different chapters of the Institute, who were elected during the IIA’s Annual Business Meeting. Furthermore, Grupo Pacífico’s Chief Auditor was re-elected in 2021 as Chairman of the Lima Chapter of the Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA). In 2022 the Credicorp Head of Audit - Microfinance segment was appointed as member of the board of directors of the Peruvian chapter of the Institute of Internal Audit.

Consistent with recommended industry practices, Credicorp continued to apply the Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) of the FFIEC, OWASP – Mobile & Application Security Standard, Cloud Security Alliance’s (CSA), NIST CSF, Critical Security Controls (CIS) and MITRE ATT&CK Framework. In addition, Credicorp implemented a centralized methodology to apply data analytics in a coordinated and integrated manner and began to apply a decentralized data analytics model following best practices and promoted the use of Agile audit methodology guidelines.

In 2022, we achieved important advances in two of the main action fronts of data analytics: the construction of analytical models that allow us to identify suspicious transactions or transactions with a greater probability of error, and the digitization of audit tests, which may reduce the time incurred during the review. In addition, we developed automated solutions with the objective of reducing manual and repetitive tasks in our internal processes. Finally, we offered 388 hours of specialized training to the audit team to promote the use of data analytics and automation.

We also made progress in the use of machine learning in our audit activities with the introduction of Computer Assisted Audit Techniques (CAAT) such as supervised, unsupervised and grouping models. One of these models, used to forecast branches with areas of improvement in internal control at Mi Banco Colombia, was honored with a second-place award in the “Hackathon” organized by the Latin American Committee for Internal Audit and Risk Assessment (Comité Latinoamericano de Auditoría Interna y Evaluación de Riesgos) committee of the Latin American Federation of Banks (Federación Latinoamericana de Bancos or FELABAN by its Spanish initials).

Table of Contents

Additionally, due to the growth in the number of models and the increase in the complexity of the methodologies applied, in addition to the projects carried out with traditional methodology, a method has been developed to audit models in an agile way called "Special Model Audits". The purpose of Special Model Audits is to cover the existing review needs and to be able to identify in a shorter time the deficiencies that may exist in different processes. With the application of this method in projects during 2022, we achieved important advances in our methodology to audit MRM (model risk management), increased the coverage of model review and monitored first and second line controls related to the development, calibration, implementation, and monitoring of models.

In 2022, we provided 19,070 hours of training to our internal auditors, with an average of 83 hours per auditor (above the 40 hours per auditor recommended by international practices) in topics related to fraud prevention, IFRS 9, new cybersecurity frameworks such as those promulgated by the IIA, NIST or the FFIEC, internal quality assessment, data analytics, risk management, programming language, anti-money laundering, validation of models and other topics of financial and operational audit.

As of December 31, 2022, BCP Stand-alone ranked first among all Peruvian multiple banks by assets, deposits, and loans, according to the SBS.

As of December 31, 2022, the principal Peruvian non-state financial institutions reported total loan balances of S/ 258,836 million in local currency and of US$25,629 million in foreign currency (in comparison to S/259,007 million and US$22,830 million as of December 31, 2021, respectively). These figures represented a contraction in local currency loan balances of (0.1%) and an expansion in foreign currency loan balances of 7.4% from December 31, 2021 (compared to expansion of 6.4.% and 10.1%, respectively, from December 31, 2020, to December 31, 2021). As a result, the dollarization of loans reached 27.4% as of December 31, 2022 (compared to 26.0% as of December 31, 2021, and 25.4% as of December 31, 2020).

As of December 31, 2022, Peru’s total amount of multiple banking deposits were S/325,990 million, and the multiple banking dollarization rate for deposits was 40.6% (compared to 43.0% as of December 31, 2021, and 37.9% as of December 31, 2020). It should be noted that, as part of its plan to decrease the dollarization level of loans in the Peruvian financial system and reduce the risks of currency depreciation associated with borrowing in US Dollars, the BRCP established a de-dollarization program beginning in January 2015. For further information, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1 Peru – (i) Peruvian Regulators”.

Peruvian banks’ capital ratio (regulatory capital divided by risk-weighted assets (RWAs) was 14.45% as of December 31, 2022, which was above the 10% legal minimum that became effective in July 2011 and represented a decrease of 53 basis points from the capital ratio reported as of December 31, 2021 (14.92%). As of 2021, the ratio decreased by 60 basis points from a ratio of 15.52% as of December 31, 2020.

Peru’s loan portfolio quality indicators generally improved in 2022. As of December 31, 2022, the internal overdue ratio reached 3.95%, 18bps above than the ratio reported as of December 31, 2021 (3.77%). As of 2021, the ratio had decreased 3 basis points compared to December 31, 2020 (3.80%). Also, the internal overdue, refinanced, and re-structured loans over total loans ratio was 5.73% as of December 31, 2022, 8 basis points higher than the 5.65% ratio reported at year-end 2021 (compared to 5.52% in 2020). Similarly, the coverage ratio of Peru’s internal overdue loan portfolio was 148.46% as of December 31, 2022 (compared to 155.54% as of December 31, 2021, and 177.68% as of December 31, 2020).

The liquidity of the Peruvian banking system remained at moderately high levels. As of December 31, 2022, the local currency liquidity ratio and the foreign currency liquidity ratio were 26.96% and 48.01%, respectively (compared to 33.64% and 51.35% in 2021, and to 52.2% and 49.2% in 2020, respectively). The decrease in the local currency liquidity ratio is consistent with bank customers drawing down their deposits as the economy reactivated after the COVID-19 pandemic. These liquidity ratio levels were well above the minimums required by SBS regulations, which was 8% for local currency and 20% for foreign currency as of December 31, 2022.

(ii) Other financial institutions

BCP Stand-alone also faces strong competition from credit providers other than banking institutions, primarily with respect to consumer loans and SME-Pyme loans. SME-Pyme loan providers from non-bank financial institutions lent S/31.16 billion to borrowers in 2022, compared to S/28.34 billion in 2021, and S/25.76 billion in 2020, according to the SBS. In 2022, overall SME-Pyme loans to customers of non-bank financial institutions represented 53.30% of the total loans in the Peruvian financial system (compared to 52.33 % in 2021 and 47.79% in 2020).

Consumer loan providers from other financial institutions lent S/15.8 billion to borrowers in 2022, compared to S/13.4 billion in 2021 and S/14.0 billion in 2020, according to the SBS. In 2022, overall loans to consumers of other financial institutions represented 18.8% of total loans in the financial system (compared to 19.4% in 2021 and 21.2% in 2020).

(iii) Recent Competitive Developments

In recent years, several foreign companies have shown interest in entering the Peruvian universal banking market, while financial companies already in Peru have taken steps to expand operations and develop new businesses. In addition, non-traditional players, such as fintech and startup companies, began to operate in the financial sector in recent years. These new strong competitors may adversely affect our results, as they provide similar products and services. In particular, the following authorizations and applications from and to the SBS may be significant to our competitive environment in Peru:

In March 2021, the Peruvian congress approved the Usury Law Regulation, which protects consumers of financial services from usury. This law establishes caps on the interest rates charged by financial institutions, which must be within the limit proposed by the BCRP. Likewise, the law also prohibits the capitalization of interest and the collection of a penalty or other commission or expense in the event of non-compliance or delay in the payment of the loan.

(4)

In June 2021, Law No. 31112, Ley que establece el control previo de operaciones de concentración empresarial (the Merger Control Law), a law regarding pre-merger control for certain business transactions, entered in force. The Merger Control Law established that any transaction that involves a change of control or causes ownerships to cross certain thresholds set by such law and can result in action in concert must have the authorization of INDECOPI to be consummated. The Merger Control Law also vested in INDECOPI the pre-merger control of transactions within the scope of the regulation and supervision of the SBS and/or SMV, without prejudice to pre-merger control of a prudential nature and financial stability within the responsibility of the SBS and/or SMV.

In September 2021, the SBS authorized the organization of a banking company under the corporate name Banco BCI Perú. It will operate as a subsidiary of the Chilean banking company BCI, which had already been authorized to carry out its international expansion in Peru in September 2019.

(6)

Since 2021, along with our traditional competitors, new technology-driven entities such as fintech and startup companies, showed greater interest in the financial sector, in line with higher digitization under the COVID-19 context. We highlight specific strategic alliances between these and current financial institutions competitors such as: (i) BBVA: Kontigo, (ii) Banco Interamericano de Finanzas: Microwd, and (iii) Interbank: RappiBank and Kambista.

(7)

During 2022, more international technology-driven entities such as fintech and startup companies entered in Peru, for example we have Payflow (Spain), Zulu (Colombia), Tapi (Argentina), or Trii (Colombia) among others. With an increasing digital population, the Peruvian market is becoming more attractive to international players.

5.2 Microfinance

According to The Economist Intelligence, Peru and Colombia have the most conducive environments for financial inclusion. We are aware that a large portion of microbusiness owners in both countries are currently unbanked, which constitutes an opportunity to contribute to these economies while growing our businesses.

5.2.1 Peruvian microfinance system

As of December 31, 2022, the Peruvian microfinance system is mainly regulated by the SBS and is comprised of entities that vary in size, client segments, and ambit of geographic action: one bank, which is Mibanco; nine financial firms, 12 municipal savings banks, six rural savings banks and seven development entities for small and microbusinesses (Edpymes). The Peruvian microfinance system also includes 349 savings and loan associations (Cooperativa de Ahorro y Créditos or COOPACS by its Spanish initials), which have small portfolios and target specific geographic areas.

As of December 31, 2022, the Peruvian microfinance system (excluding COOPACS) represented around 66% of the total entities regulated by the Peruvian financial system, with microfinance loans totaling approximately S/66.7 billion (16% of Peruvian Financial System). As of December 31, 2022, according to the SBS, microfinance customers represented 58.1% of borrowers in the regulated Peruvian financial system.

(1) In 2019, SBS began overseeing COOPACS and according to the latest financial information available, at the end of 2019, 131 COOPACS reported (aggregate) a total of S/13.2 billion in assets, S/9.8 billion in loans and S/9.7 billion in deposits.

According to the SBS, as of December 31, 2022, Mibanco led the Peruvian market for loans in the micro and small business segments regulated by SBS, with shares of 23.0% and 21.8% respectively (compared to 26.6% and 20.5%, respectively, as of December 31, 2021 and 28.6% and 18.2%, respectively, as of December 31, 2020).

Municipal savings banks are important players in the microfinance system in Peru. In 2022, 12 municipal savings banks were operating and represented 49% of the total loans at year-end. The business model used by municipal savings associations is similar to the traditional relational model used by Mibanco, which conducts an on-site cash flow assessment of the customer. The municipal savings associations operate in municipal government ambits, and as such, their ability to innovate and modify products and processes is limited by the existence of multiple layers of approval.

Table of Contents

The first half of 2022 was characterized by rapid economic recovery while the second half was affected by the political instability and violent protests due to social unrest. This situation caused a decline in the disbursements during the last quarter of 2022. In this context, Mibanco worked to keep its portfolio quality aligned with its risk appetite, and its internal overdue loan coverage ratio was 128.6% in IFRS as of December 31, 2022. In Peruvian GAAP, as of December 31, 2022, Mibanco’s internal overdue loan coverage ratio was 140.8% and the average for municipal savings banks was 151.7% Mibanco’s global capital ratio was 14.7% at year-end 2022, which exceeded the 14.6% global capital ratio reported by municipal savings banks at year-end 2022. Furthermore, in 2022, the ROE for Mibanco was 17.8%, which exceeded the 8.8% ROE collectively reported by the municipal savings banks system.

Recent competitive developments

In March 2020, through Multiple Resolution (Oficio Múltiple) No. 11170-2020-SBS, the SBS authorized entities in the Peruvian financial system to modify loan contracts to extend grace periods for borrowers. This allowed clients to repay debts over longer periods without generating the usual negative marks on credit histories that are generated when grace periods expire without payment. For more information, please refer to the following section: ITEM 3 KEY INFORMATION – 3.D Risk Factors – Our business and results of operations may continue to be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak or other public health crises beyond our control.

•

In December 2020, through Multiple Official Letter No. 42138-2020, the SBS provided that, exceptionally and subject to prior authorization, companies in the financial system may reduce their capital stock, legal reserve and/or other equity accounts for the purpose of constituting new specific and/or generic provisions (including voluntary) for their credit portfolio.

In 2022, Grupo Pacífico was the second-largest insurance company in Peru in terms of written premiums, with a consolidated market share of 26.5% (compared to 26.7% in 2021), according to the SBS and SUSALUD. Grupo Pacífico had a 5.4% written premium increase from 2021 to 2022, which was lower than the Peruvian average growth of 6.3%, in line with the higher economic activity. However, Grupo Pacífico remains the largest insurance company in the life and health insurance market with 26.1% and 44.2% of market share respectively according to the SBS and SUSALUD. The following table lists the Peruvian market share of each of the top six insurers by annual written premiums in 2022:

(1) P&C + Life + Corporate Health Insurance Businesses

Grupo Pacífico has a relatively well-diversified product portfolio, with composition comparable to that of the overall Peruvian insurance industry. In contrast to the Latin-American region, Peru maintains a low insurance penetration level: as of December 31, 2022, the region has an insurance penetration level of 3.0%, while Peru´s was 2.1% in 2022, according to the SBS and BCRP.

In 2022, the Peruvian insurance market registered an increase of 6.3% in terms of total direct premiums (S/21,703 million compared to S/20,417 million in 2021), explained by the country’s economic recovery, as well as lower confinement and social distancing measures to face the COVID-19 pandemic, as compared to 2021. This increase is mainly due to the P&C segment, for which production increased 6.2% from 2021 to 2022, and to the life segment, for which production increased 5.7% from 2021 to 2022.

Life and P&C insurance market

In September 2013, the SBS initiated a reform to the PPS that established a tender process for the exclusive right to manage the PPS’s collective insurance policies for disability and survivorship (D&S) and burial expenses. As a result of the SBS’s reform, these exclusive rights were offered for the collective insurance contract. In 2017 and 2019, Grupo Pacífico won the third, fourth and fifth tender processes, which allowed the company to continue in the D&S business from 2017 to 2022. Grupo Pacífico won the latest D&S tender process (SISCO VI regime), which allows it to continue in the D&S business from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023.

Table of Contents

In 2022, total written premiums in the Peruvian life and P&C insurance sectors increased 5.9% compared to 2021, a smaller increase than the 26.2% increase from 2020 to 2021 (after a decrease of 0.7% from 2019 to 2020). Written premiums in the Peruvian life and P&C insurance market totaled S/18,746 million in 2022, higher than S/17,695 million registered in 2021. Total written premiums in the Peruvian life insurance business increased 5.7% from 2021 to 2022, and those in the Peruvian P&C business grew 6.2% from 2021 to 2022, according to the SBS. For comparison, in the same year, Peru’s GDP increased by 2.7%, according to the BCRP.

According to the SBS, in 2022, Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums in Peru’s consolidated life and P&C businesses were 23.7% of the Peruvian market, compared to 24.1% in 2021. Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums in 2022 were the second largest of any company in Peru’s consolidated life and P&C insurance market.

Life insurance market

In 2022, written premiums in Peru’s life insurance market totaled S/9,740.8 million, which represents an increase of 5.7% from 2021, according to the SBS. This was mainly attributable to Credit Life (which increased 24.3% from 2021), Group life (which increased 22.5% from 2021), and to D&S (which increased 12.9% from 2021).

According to the SBS, in 2022, Grupo Pacífico had the largest market share in the Peruvian life insurance market by written premiums (26.1%), which was lower than its market share of 26.7% in 2021. In 2022, Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums increased 3.4% from 2021, lower than Peru’s average growth of 5.7%. The increase in Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums was primarily attributable to D&S, which increased 13.4% from 2021 due to an increase in premium collections under the new SISCO V regime (a public bidding process as a result of which the insurance companies that will collectively manage the risks of disability, survival and burial of AFP members for the period 2023 are selected) as a result of a higher premium rate; group life, which increased 23.3% from 2021 due to Complementary Work Risk Insurance (Seguro Complementario de Trabajo de Riesgo or SCTR by its Spanish initials) and statutory life product sales growth; and to credit life, which increased 10.6% from 2021, mainly driven by the bancassurance channel.

P&C insurance market

In 2022, the written premiums of Peru’s P&C insurance market totaled S/9,005.5 million, which represents an increase of 6.2% from 2021, according to the SBS. This result was primarily attributable to commercial lines due to fire risk premiums (which increased 16.5% from 2021), earthquake insurance premiums (which increased 7.9% from 2021), premiums for theft insurance for credit cards (which increased 13.0% from 2021), liability insurance premiums (which increased 6.4% from 2021) and transportation risks premiums (which increased 9.0% from 2021), and to automobile premiums (which increased 4.1% from 2021), mandatory traffic accident third-party liability insurance premiums (SOAT by its Spanish initials) (which increased 2.9% from 2021) and medical assistance premiums (which increased 5.7% from 2021).

Table of Contents

According to the SBS, Grupo Pacífico had the second largest market share in Peru’s P&C sector (21.1% in 2022, which is lower than its 21.3% market share in 2021). Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums increased 5.0% from 2021, which is lower than Peru’s average growth rate of 6.2%. The increase in Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums was mainly driven by commercial lines premiums (which increased 4.0% from 2021), due to higher volume of transportation risks policy renewals, theft insurance for credit cards, aviation and liability insurance; medical assistance premiums (which increased 5.5% from 2021), due to growth in premium renewals for comprehensive health and oncological products; and automobile premiums (which increased 6.7% from 2021), due to an increase in renewals in the brokers, bancassurance and digital sales channels.

Corporate Health Insurance and Medical Services market

According to SUSALUD, in 2022, written premiums in Peru’s health insurance market totaled S/2,957.0 million, which represented an increase of 8.7% compared to the previous year. Based on figures from SUSALUD, Grupo Pacífico had Peru’s largest market share in the health insurance market in 2022 (44.2%, compared to 43.5% in 2021).

5.3.2 Prima AFP

The PPS consists of four companies, and Prima AFP is the second largest of the four by funds under management. According to the SBS, as of December 31, 2022, funds under management in the PPS reached S/105.9 billion, of which Prima AFP managed S/31.8 billion. According to SBS data, Prima AFP had a market share of 30.1% in 2022, essentially unchanged from its market share in 2021 (30.1%) and lower than its 30.2% market share in 2020.

According to the SBS, on December 31, 2022, the PPS reached 8.8 million affiliates, of which 2.3 million were Prima AFP’s customers. This represented a market share of 26.6% for Prima AFP, lower than its market shares of 28.5% and 30.3% as of year-end 2021 and 2020, respectively, also according to SBS data.

Collections in the PPS in 2022 reached S/14.5 billion, of which S/4.1 billion was collected by Prima AFP. This represented a market share of 28.1% for Prima AFP, lower than its market shares of 28.9% and 31.4% as of year-end 2021 and 2020, respectively, also according to SBS data.

As discussed below under “PPS Reforms”, the Peruvian government began a process of reforming the PPS in 2012 through the passage of the PPS Reform Law. This reform contemplated a tender process to be held every 24 months, in which the AFP that offers the lowest management fee wins the tender. As a result, new workers who enter the PPS become members of the tender holder and remain in it for at least 24 months.

5.4 Investment Banking and Wealth Management

Our Investment Banking and Wealth Management LoB is organized into five main business units: Asset Management, Capital Markets, Corporate Finance, Wealth Management and Trust Services. In addition, there is a regional Business Support team and a centrally managed Treasury Department.

Asset Management

In Asset Management, Credicorp Capital’s proprietary funds total market reduced its size considerably since 2021, driven by significant local outflows from Peru in 2022 due to high political uncertainty. However, Credicorp Capital maintained the leading market position in mutual funds in Peru among institutional clients and individuals, with a market share of 30.0% by total market assets under management, according to the SMV. We are also developing alternative funds in real estate, infrastructure, and private debt at a regional level and offer third-party funds from global asset managers to our clients.

Capital Markets

In capital markets, our brokerage house in Peru reaffirmed its leadership, holding the largest market share in equities (27% of traded value) and the second largest in fixed income (41% of traded volume), excluding the volumes outside of the stock market, according to the BVL. Similarly, our brokerage company in Colombia held the second largest market share among brokers in equities (16% of traded value) and the largest in fixed income (26% of traded volume) according to the Colombian Stock Exchange. In Chile, we held the fifth largest market share in equities (6%) and the second largest in fixed-income proprietary accounts (7%), in terms of traded volume, according to the Santiago Stock Exchange.

Corporate Finance

In Corporate Finance, our teams are mainly recognized in Peru and Chile, while the team in Colombia continues to build up its reputation. These teams offer lending and capital markets solutions for corporations’ financing needs and offer them advisory services for mergers and acquisitions.

Wealth Management

In Wealth Management, while the team is consolidated in Peru, we seek to capitalize on the growth opportunity in Colombia and Chile. In this business, we compete in a regional market led by global banks and financial institutions, especially in the ultra-high-net-worth segment.

Trust Services

In Peru, we have a strong leadership position in fiduciary and custody services to retail and institutional clients, but further growth is limited by market size. On the other hand, we have a relatively low market share in fiduciary services in Colombia (less than 5% measured by number of trust deeds), according to the Association of Fiduciaries of Colombia (Asociación de Fiduciarias de Colombia).

(6) Supervision and regulation

6.1 Credicorp

Credicorp Ltd. is an exempted company located in Bermuda. Credicorp maintains a presence and conducts its activities in Peru, Cayman Islands, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, Mexico, Spain, Panama, the United States, and Luxembourg through its different LoBs and subsidiaries.

Other than as described under “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION - 3. D Risk Factors - Credicorp, as a Bermuda exempted company, may be adversely affected by any change in Bermuda law or regulation,” there are no applicable regulations under Bermuda law that are likely to materially impact our operations as they are currently structured. Under Bermuda law, there is no regulation applicable to Credicorp as a holding company that would require that we separate the operations of our subsidiaries incorporated and existing outside Bermuda.

Our common shares are listed on the NYSE. We are therefore subject to regulation by the NYSE and the SEC as a “foreign private issuer”. We also must comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

We are subject to certain requirements set forth by the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law, as well by certain banking resolutions issued by the SBS, including the Consolidated Supervision of Financial and Mixed Conglomerates Regulation. These regulations affect us primarily in the areas of reporting, risk control guidelines, limitations, ratios, and capital requirements.

Since our common shares are listed on the BVL in addition to the NYSE, we are subject to certain reporting requirements to the SMV and the BVL. See “Item 9. The Offer and Listing – 9.C Markets – (2) Market Regulation”. The SMV issued SMV Resolution 016-2019-SMV/01 - “Guidelines for the qualification of Independent Directors”, which are not binding rules; but recommendations to the issuers listed on the BVL and under SMV supervision.

(i) Capital Adequacy Requirements

SBS Resolution No. 11823-2010 established the methodologies for calculating the regulatory capital and capital requirements for financial and mixed conglomerates. Article 4 of SBS Resolution No.11823-2010 identifies two categories of consolidated groups: (i) the financial system consolidated group and (ii) the insurance system consolidated group. A combined group of companies formed by these two categories of entities is called a financial group. The financial system consolidated group, the insurance system consolidated group, and the financial group are each required to hold regulatory capital that is greater than or equal to the capital requirements applicable to each respective group.

The capital requirements applicable to the financial group are the sum of the capital requirements applicable to the financial system consolidated group and to the insurance system consolidated group. The capital requirements applicable to the financial system consolidated group and to the insurance system consolidated group are the sum of the capital requirements applicable to the companies that belong to each respective group. For unsupervised companies, regulatory capital is required to be the greater of: (i) 10% of third-party assets or (ii) the ratio of third-party assets over total assets multiplied by the sum of paid-in-capital, legal reserves, supplementary capital premiums, voluntary reserves distributable only with prior SBS approval, and retained earnings with capitalization agreements net of current and past years’ losses.

Article 6 of SBS Resolution No. 11823-2010 provides that regulatory capital of the consolidated groups comprises the sum of basic capital and supplementary capital and is calculated as follows:

•

Basic Capital: Basic Capital or Tier 1 capital is comprised of:

(i)

paid-in-capital (which includes common stock and perpetual non-cumulative preferred stock), legal reserves, supplementary capital premiums, voluntary reserves distributable only with prior SBS approval, and retained earnings with capitalization agreements (that is, earnings that the shareholders or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, have committed to capitalize as common stock); and

(ii)

other elements that have characteristics of permanence and loss absorption that are in compliance with regulations enacted by the SBS;

Items deducted from Tier 1 capital include:

(a)

current and past years’ losses;

(b)

deficits of loan loss provisions;

(c)

goodwill resulting from corporate reorganizations or acquisitions; and

(d)

half of the amount referred to in “Deductions” below. Absent any Tier 2 capital, 100% of the amount referred to in “Deductions” below must be deducted from Tier 1 capital.

130

Table of Contents

The elements referred to in item (ii) above should not exceed 17.65% of the amount resulting from adding components (i) of Basic Capital or Tier 1 capital net of the deductions in (a), (b), and (c) in the list above.

•

Supplementary Capital: Supplementary capital comprises the sum of Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital. Tier 2 capital elements include:

(a)

paid-in-capital, legal reserves, supplementary capital premiums, and voluntary reserves that may be reduced without prior consent from the SBS;

(b)

the eligible portion of the consolidated redeemable subordinated debt and of any other components that have characteristics of debt and equity as provided by the SBS;

(c)

for banks using the SBS standardized approach method, the generic loan loss provision up to 1.25% of total credit RWAs; or, alternatively, for banks using the internal ratings-based (IRB) method, the generic loan loss provision up to 0.6% of total credit RWAs (pursuant to Article 189 of Law No. 26702); and

(d)

half of the amount referred to in “Deductions” below. Tier 3 capital comprises consolidated redeemable subordinated debt that is incurred with the sole purpose of covering market risk.

•

Deductions: The following elements are deducted from Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital:

(i)

for the financial system consolidated group, all investments in shares and subordinated debt issued by other local or foreign financial institutions and insurance companies; for the insurance system consolidated group, all investments in shares and subordinated debt issued by other local or foreign insurance companies;

(ii)

all investments in shares and subordinated debt issued by entities that are part of the holding but do not belong to any of the consolidated groups;

(iii)

for the financial system group, the amount by which (a) an investment in shares issued by a real sector company which is neither part of the holding nor part of the negotiable portfolio exceeds 15% of the financial system consolidated group’s regulatory capital; and (b) the amount by which the aggregate amount of all investments in shares issued by real sector companies which are not part of the conglomerate and which are not part of the financial system consolidated group’s negotiable portfolio exceeds 60% of the regulatory capital.

Article 7 of SBS Resolution No. 11823-2010 provides that the following limits apply when calculating regulatory capital: (i) the aggregate amount of supplementary capital must not exceed the aggregate amount of basic capital; (ii) the amount of redeemable Tier 2 subordinated instruments must be limited to 50% of the amount resulting from the sum of Tier 1 elements in “Basic Capital” above; and (iii) the amount of Tier 3 capital must be limited to 250% of the sum of Tier 1 elements.

Credicorp’s main subsidiaries, BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco, Grupo Pacífico, Prima AFP, and Credicorp Capital Peru, are located in Peru and they offer banking and financial services. Furthermore, they are regulated by Peruvian laws and supervised by the Peruvian Financial Regulators mentioned below.

In Peru, financial institutions, insurance companies and pension funds are regulated by the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law. In general, the law provides for loan loss reserve standards, brings asset risk weighting in line with Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices of International Settlements (Basel Committee) guidelines, empowers the SBS to supervise financial holding companies, and includes specific treatment of a series of recently developed products in the capital markets and derivatives areas.

(i)

Peruvian Regulators

The Peruvian Central Bank (BCRP)

The BCRP’s primary role is to ensure the stability of the Peruvian monetary system. The BCRP regulates Peru’s money supply, administers international reserves, issues currency, targets inflation ranges and determines Peru’s balance of payments and other monetary accounts. The BCRP’s Board of Directors develops and oversees monetary policy, establishes reserves requirements for entities within the financial system and approves guidelines for the management of international reserves. All entities within the Peruvian financial system are required to comply with the decisions of the BCRP.

133

Table of Contents

The monetary policy of the BCRP has been conducted under an inflation-targeting scheme since January 2002. The BCRP seeks to anchor inflation expectations through the announcement of an inflation target range of 1% to 3% and makes monetary policy decisions by using a reference rate for the interbank market interest rate. Depending on economic conditions, the BCRP changes its reference interest rate preventively to keep inflation in the target range. Once a month, the Board of Directors approves and announces the monetary program through a policy statement which includes a brief description of the recent macroeconomic evolution, the decision about the reference interest rate and rationale behind said decision, as well as interest rates for BCRP operations with the financial system.

The BCRP’s recent rate-hiking cycle has increased the reference interest rate from 0.25% in July 2021 to 7.75% in January 2023. The cycle began with a 25bps hike in August 2021, followed by 12 consecutive hikes of 50bps each, and slowed down to another 5 consecutive hikes of 25bps each. In February 2023, the BCRP decided to keep the reference interest rate stable for the first time after 18 consecutive months of rate hikes.

The following table summarizes the reference interest rate changes from March 2020 to April 2023:

Changes in BCRP's reference interest rate (March 2020 – February 2023)
No.	Date Held
March 2020	1.25%

Additionally, the BCRP is also responsible for managing the liquidity in the financial system so that the interbank rate stays close to the reference rate. Policy instruments include (i) market instruments, (ii) discount window instruments and (iii) reserve requirements.

(i)

Market instruments

To remove liquidity from the financial system

BCRP Deposit Certificates (BCRP CD): BCRP CDs are used to regulate the liquidity of the financial system through the sterilization of banks’ surplus liquidity. They are issued through an auction mechanism for terms of between one month and three years. In January 2023, the aggregate value of outstanding BCRP CDs was S/13.2 billion.

BCRP Adjustable Deposit Certificates (BCRP CDRs): In addition to sterilizing banks’ surplus liquidity, BCRP CDRs target the reduction of depreciation pressures on the USDPEN exchange rate as the certificate is readjusted subject to the variation in the exchange rate between the issue date and maturity date. The aggregate outstanding value of BCRP CDRs declined from S/7.8 billion in February 2021 to zero in October 2022. As of February 2023, there are no BCRP CDRs outstanding.

BCRP Deposit Certificates payable in US Dollars (BCRP CDLDs): BCRP CDLDs were created in 2010 to address downward pressures on the exchange rate related to banks’ forward contracts. Through BCRP CDLDs, the BCRP issues a deposit certificate denominated in Soles but for which payment on the issue date and maturity date is done in US Dollars. This is equivalent to a temporary purchase of dollars in the spot market sterilized by issuing BCRP CDs. This instrument has been used only twice–first at the end of 2010 and beginning of 2011 and second in 2017. Since March 2018, there are no BCRP CDLDs outstanding.

BCRP Deposit Certificates at variable rate (BCRP CDVs): The yield of BCRP CDVs is subject to adjustment based on the reference interest rate or the overnight interbank index, as determined by the BCRP. BCRP CDVs are used to sterilize liquidity in an environment of high uncertainty about future interest rates that reduces BCRP CD demand. Because of the current macroeconomic scenario of high inflation and high interest rates, the instrument has been used intensively since August 2021. In January 2023, the aggregate value of outstanding BCRP CDVs was S/15.5 billion.

BCRP Term-deposits (BCRP DPs): BCRP DPs were created in 2010 in a context of significant short-term capital inflows to remove liquidity from the system when it replaced the issuance of BCRP CDs with terms of one month or less with BCRP DPs. In January 2023, the aggregate value of outstanding BCRP DPs was S/6.7 billion.

To inject liquidity into the financial system

Reverse-repo: Through reverse repurchase agreements (repos), the BCRP can buy from financial system entities, with the commitment that those entities repurchase on an agreed date, all the CDs issued by the BCRP, treasury notes and treasury bonds issued in Soles. This is done through an auction mechanism and the regular terms of these transactions are between one business day and one week. Since 2008, reverse-repo transactions in US Dollars have been authorized as a way to inject liquidity in US Dollars. In April 2020, pension funds were authorized to participate in these transactions in the case of securities issued by the Republic of Peru that are registered in CAVALI. In January 2023, the value of outstanding reverse-repos was S/9.4 billion, which is 34.4% less than in September 2022.

Credit-repo transactions: In April 2009, the BCRP was authorized to purchase credit portfolios temporarily represented in securities. In May 2020, the Peruvian government, through Legislative Decree No. 1508, created a program for the guarantee of credit portfolios of financial entities to provide liquidity support. The size of the program was S/7 billion and could be expanded up to an additional 20%. Under this framework, in May 2021, through Circular No. 011-2021-BCRP, the BCRP created credit-repo transactions with a government guarantee for liquidity support. The value of outstanding credit-repo transactions in January 2023 was S/6.3 billion.

Government-backed credit repo transactions: Government-backed credit repo transactions were established under the Reactiva Peru Program framework in April 2020. In these transactions, the entities involved (banks and other financial companies) sell to BCRP securities representatives of credits guaranteed by the Peruvian government, receive Soles and, at the same time, agree to repurchase those securities at a future date. The BCRP determines the rate it will charge for the funds and the allocation variable is the maximum interest rate that entities are willing to charge for these guaranteed credits. The BCRP adjudicates the auctioned funds starting with the bids that have the lowest rate. In this way, it encourages lower credit rates that are ultimately determined through market mechanisms. The outstanding value of government-backed credit Repo transactions reached a peak of S/50.7 billion in December 2020 and has decreased since then to S/16.9 billion in January 2023.

Repo-transactions conditioned on credit portfolio rescheduling: From June 2020 to October 2021, repo transactions conditioned on credit portfolio rescheduling were established to incentivize financial entities to reduce their loan interest rates. Under this program, the entities sell securities (reverse-repo, foreign exchange swaps and credit-repo) or foreign currency to the BCRP, receive domestic currency and are obliged, at the same time, to repurchase those securities or foreign currency at a future date, against the payment of Soles. The terms of these transactions ranged from 6 to 48 months and were completed only if the financial entities rescheduled their clients’ loan portfolios or loans bought from other financial entities in an amount at least of the size the repo transaction. In addition, the BCRP set conditions that included a requirement to set the interest rate applicable to rescheduled credits at a minimum discount of 200 bps to the original interest rate. The effects of these transactions were reflected in better conditions for debtors in the financial system and aimed at a faster recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic’s negative shock to the local economy.

Repo-transactions conditioned on long-term credit expansion: Repo transactions conditioned on long-term credit expansion were established in April 2021 and concluded in December 2021, with the objective of improving the monetary policy transmission channel and continue strengthening the expansion of credit to the private sector. This program worked in a similar way to the repo transactions conditioned on credit portfolio rescheduling mentioned above, but the completion of these transactions occurred only if financial institutions increased their outstanding amount of corporate loans or mortgages in domestic currencies with terms of at least three years compared to January 1, 2021, levels.

Currency repos: Since March 2007, the BCRP has been allowed to use currency repos to inject liquidity in soles against US Dollar delivery. Through these transactions, the BCRP temporarily purchases dollars from financial institutions that commit to repurchase them at a future date. Since April 2011, this instrument has also been used to inject liquidity in Dollars. Aggregate outstanding currency repos in January 2023 totaled S/782 million. To accelerate the de-dollarization process, in December 2014, the BCRP established two new types of currency repos: (1) Repo – Expansion, which would provide liquidity in local currency to financial institutions for an amount up to 20% of such institution’s Total Liabilities Subject to Reserve Requirements (TOSE by its Spanish Initials) in US Dollars, and under no circumstance could the median reserve requirement for which decrease below 25%; and (2) Repo – Substitution, which would provide local currency to financial institutions at spot foreign exchange prices to finance the re-denomination of their loans in US Dollars. The outstanding amount of both instruments has been zero 2019.

Interest rate swaps: Interest rate swaps were launched to empower the transmission of monetary policy and incentivize the expansion of long-term credit. The BCRP can carry out these transactions via auction or direct placements with terms between 3 and 7 years. Through these derivatives, the BCRP assumes the commitment to pay a variable interest rate in exchange for the financial entity's commitment to pay a fixed interest rate. Thus, the BCRP provides the financial system entities a hedging instrument for future interest rates hikes, which then incentivizes them to make long term loans. The aggregate outstanding amount of these transactions was S/1.7 billion as of January 31, 2023.

Reduce FX volatility

Buy-sell USD in the spot market: The BCRP intervenes in the exchange rate market at its discretion to reduce PEN volatility. These interventions are sterilized by other monetary operations to keep the interbank interest rate around the reference level. In 2022, the BCRP sold US$1.2 billion in the spot market, equivalent to 10% of 2021 net sales, with the intervention concentrated in the second half of 2022. Between January 2023 and mid-February 2023, the BCRP intervened in the spot market once, selling US$1 million.

FX swaps: Foreign exchange swaps were initiated in 2014 to reduce exchange rate volatility generated by pressures in the derivatives market. With an FX swap sell, the BCRP provides exposure to the exchange rate by committing to pay a fixed rate in foreign currency plus the exchange rate variation, in exchange for receiving an interest rate in domestic currency that can be variable or fixed. With this transaction, the parties typically exchange only net payments rather than the full nominal amounts. As of December 31, 2022, the BCRP’s stock of FX swaps sell remained stable at approximately S/ 38.1 billion (compared to S/37.8 billion in 2021).

(ii)

Discount window instruments

Credit for monetary regulation (rediscounts): Rediscounts have the purpose of covering temporary liquidity imbalances of financial institutions. The financial entity that requests the use of this facility has to provide collateral (BCRP CDs, Treasury notes, Treasury bonds, CDR BCRP, private sector bonds with at least credit rating AA, among others).

Direct reverse-repo: Similar to the reverse-repos and currency-repos explained above, through direct reverse-repos, the BCRP can provide liquidity that financial entities demand directly, instead of through an auction, and accept a greater range of collateral.

Purchase of Treasury bonds in domestic currency: The objective of this instrument is to reduce the volatility of Treasury bonds caused by uncertainty in global financial markets and the sales by pension funds due to the withdrawal of pension fund accounts approved by Peru’s congress. The BCRP bought S/3.5 billion of sovereign bonds between November and December 2021, lower than the legal limit of 5% of the 2021 monetary base (S/4.9 billion).

Overnight deposits: Overnight domestic and foreign currency deposits (deposits repaid the next business day) of financial entities were established in 1998 and are used to remove the excess liquidity at the end of the day.

(iii)

Reserve requirements

Under Law No. 26702, banks and financial institutions are required to maintain legal reserve requirements for certain obligations. The BCRP establishes the reserve requirements that financial entities are required to meet in Peru as a percentage of their obligations in foreign and domestic currency such as demand and time deposits, savings accounts, securities, certain bonds, and funds administered by banks. Additionally, the BCRP requires reserves on amounts due to foreign banks and other foreign financial institutions. Since January 2011, obligations of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates also have been subject to the reserve requirement.

138

Table of Contents

In August 2021, through Circular No. 024-2021, the BCRP decided to: (i) establish a marginal reserve rate of 25% of the average obligations during a base period, which corresponds to July 2021; (ii) establish a minimum media reserve requirement rate of 4%, which rose to 4.25% in October 2021 and to 4.50% in November 2021; and (iii) increase the minimum level of current account deposits that entities subject to reserve requirements must keep at the BCRP as reserve funds from 0.75% to 1.00% in October 2021.

Additionally, the BCRP increased the minimum legal reserve requirement rate to 4.50% in November 2021, to 4.75% in December 2021 and to 5.00% in January 2022. Later, further gradual increases were to 5.25% in February 2022, 5.50% in March 2022, 5.75% in April 2022 and 6.0% in May 2022, with the objective of complementing the reference interest rate hiking cycle and have a better control of liquidity.

The reserve requirement is the larger amount between: (i) the rate that results from a marginal reserve rate of 25% over the increase of TOSE with respect to July 2021 and (ii) the rate that results from applying the minimum legal reserve rate of 6.0% from May 2022. Banks can have excess funds which the BCRP remunerates. By December 2022, the average effective reserve requirement ratio for domestic currency was 6.2%, an increase from levels around 4% at the beginning of 2021.

Regarding reserve requirements in foreign currency, according to the BCRP, in a context of partial dollarization, this tool has constituted an important support for financial system liquidity as its rate is higher than the one in domestic currency, due to the greater liquidity risk implied by intermediation in foreign currency. Since July 2018, the marginal rate has been 35%. Furthermore, to reduce credit dollarization, the BCRP imposes additional US dollar reserve requirements on financial institutions based on limits to the credit balance in US dollars for total credit, as well as mortgage and vehicle loans. This was suspended between April 2020 and April 2021. Additionally, the reserve rate for obligations with terms less than two years with foreign financial entities stands at 9%. Thus, by December 2022, the average effective reserve requirement ratio for foreign currency was 34.7%.

The Superintendence of Banks, Insurance and Pension Funds (SBS)

The SBS is the regulatory authority in charge of supervising and regulating all financial, insurance and pension fund institutions in Peru. Peru’s constitution and Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law, which contains the statutory charter of the SBS, grant the SBS the authority to oversee and control banks and financial institutions (apart from brokerage firms, which are regulated by the SMV), insurance and reinsurance companies, companies that receive deposits from the general public, AFPs and those that carry out activities linked or complementary to the corporate purpose of said companies mentioned in the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law. The SBS is also responsible for supervising the BCRP to ensure that it abides by its statutory charter and Byelaws.

139

Table of Contents

The SBS has administrative, financial, and operating autonomy. Its objectives include protecting the public interest, ensuring the financial stability of the institutions over which it has authority and punishing violators of its regulations. Its responsibilities include: (i) reviewing and approving, with the assistance of the BCRP, the establishment and organization of subsidiaries of the institutions it regulates; (ii) overseeing mergers, dissolutions and reorganizations of banks, financial institutions and insurance companies; (iii) supervising financial, insurance and related companies from which information on an individual or consolidated basis is required, through changes in ownership and management control (this supervision also applies to holding companies that are not banks, such as Credicorp); (iv) reviewing the byelaws and amendments to byelaws of these companies; (v) issuing criteria governing the transfer of bank shares, when permitted by law, for valuation of assets and liabilities and for minimum capital requirements; (vi) controlling the bank’s Risk Assessment Center, to which all banks are legally required to provide information regarding all businesses and individuals with whom they deal without regard to the amount of credit risk (the information provided is made available to all banks to allow them to monitor individual borrowers’ overall exposure to Peru’s banks), and (vii) overseeing compliance with the maximum interest rates set by the BCRP. The SBS is also responsible for setting criteria for the establishment of financial or mixed conglomerates in Peru and for supervising these entities. As a result, in addition to its supervision of BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco, Grupo Pacífico and Prima AFP, the SBS also supervises Credicorp Ltd. because Credicorp Ltd. is a financial conglomerate conducting most of its operations in Peru.

The Superintendence of the Securities Market (SMV)

The SMV is the Peruvian government institution in charge of: (i) promoting the securities markets, (ii) making sure fair competition takes place in the securities markets, (iii) supervising the management of businesses that trade in the securities markets, and (iv) regulating such businesses’ activities and accounting practices. The SMV enjoys functional, administrative, economic, technical, and budgetary autonomy relative to other branches of the Peruvian government. Financial institutions such as banks, insurance companies, pension funds and brokerage firms must inform the SMV of significant events that affect their business and are required to provide financial statements to both the SMV and the BVL each quarter. Those institutions are also regulated by the SMV when they conduct operations in the local Peruvian securities market.

National Institute for the Defense of Competition and the Protection of Intellectual Property (INDECOPI)

INDECOPI regulates the protection of the consumer rights set forth in Law No. 29571, Código de Protección y Defensa del Consumidor (the “Consumer Protection and Defense Code”), which applies to all transactions that have effects within the Peruvian territory. INDECOPI has the power to impose fines on us if we do not comply with the laws and regulations regarding protection of consumer rights.

National Authority for the Protection of Personal Data (ANPDP)

The ANPDP regulates and oversees compliance with the provisions of Law No. 29733, Ley de Protección de Datos Personales (Personal Data Protection Law) and its regulations, which apply even to companies domiciled abroad, to the extent that they collect personal data from Peruvian users through media located within Peruvian territory. The ANPDP has the authority to impose fines on us if we violate the laws and regulations regarding data privacy.

(ii)

Supervised Institutions

Under Peruvian law, financial institutions are classified as universal banks, insurance companies, pension funds, finance companies and other financial institutions such as small business finance companies, savings and loan corporations, financial services companies, investment banks, mutual housing associations, municipal savings and credit associations and savings and credit cooperatives.

Financial institutions must obtain the SBS’s authorization before beginning operations. BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco are each classified as a universal bank, Grupo Pacífico is classified as an insurance company, and Prima AFP is classified as a pension fund company.

Universal Banks

A universal bank, or bank, is defined by the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law as an enterprise whose principal business consists of (i) receiving money from the public, whether by deposits or by any other form of contract, and (ii) using such money (together with the bank’s own capital and funds obtained from other sources) to grant loans or discount documents, or in operations that are subject to market risks.

Banks are permitted to carry out various types of financial operations, including the following:

•

receiving demand deposits, time deposits, savings deposits, and deposits in trust;

•

granting direct loans;

•

discounting or advancing funds against bills of exchange, promissory notes, and other credit instruments;

•

granting mortgage loans and accepting bills of exchange in connection with the mortgage loans;

•

granting conditional and unconditional guarantees;

•

issuing, confirming, receiving, and discounting letters of credit;

•

acquiring and discounting certificates of deposit, warehouse receipts, bills of exchange and invoices of commercial transactions;

•

performing credit operations with local and foreign banks, as well as making deposits in those institutions;

141

Table of Contents

•

issuing and placing local currency and foreign currency bonds, as well as promissory notes and negotiable certificates of deposits;

•

issuing certificates in foreign currency and entering into foreign exchange transactions;

•

purchasing banks and non-Peruvian institutions that conduct financial intermediation or securities exchange transactions in order to maintain an international presence;

•

purchasing, holding, and selling gold and silver, as well as stocks and bonds listed on one of the Peruvian stock exchanges and issued by companies incorporated in Peru;

•

acting as financial agent for investments in Peru for external parties;

•

purchasing, holding, and selling instruments evidencing public debt, whether internal or external, as well as obligations of the BCRP;

•

making collections, payments, and transfers of funds;

•

receiving securities and other assets in trust and leasing safety deposit boxes; and

•

issuing and administering credit cards and accepting and performing trust functions.

In addition, banks may carry out financial leasing operations by forming separate departments or subsidiaries. Banks may also promote and direct operations in foreign commerce, underwrite initial public offerings, and provide financial advisory services apart from the administration of their clients’ investment portfolios. By forming a separate department within the bank, a bank may also act as a trustee for trust agreements.

Under Peruvian law, universal banks may conduct brokerage operations and administer mutual funds but must do so through subsidiaries. However, universal bank employees may market the financial products of the bank’s brokerage and mutual fund subsidiaries. Banks are prohibited from issuing insurance policies but are not prohibited from distributing insurance policies issued by insurance companies.

Peruvian branches of foreign banks enjoy the same rights and are subject to the same obligations as Peruvian universal banks. Multinational banks, with operations in various countries, may perform the same activities as universal Peruvian banks, although their foreign activities are not subject to Peruvian regulations. To carry out banking operations in local Peruvian markets, multinational banks must maintain capital in Peru of at least the minimum amount that is required for Peruvian banks. For more information about banks’ capital requirements, please see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – (6) Supervision and regulation – (i) Peruvian Commercial Banks Regulation - BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco – Capital adequacy requirements and ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.B Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Those universal banks who violate the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law and its underlying regulations may be subject to administrative sanctions and criminal penalties. Additionally, the SBS and the BCRP have the authority to issue fines to financial institutions and their directors and officers if they violate the laws or regulations of Peru, or their own institutions’ byelaws.

Insurance companies

Since the Peruvian insurance industry was deregulated in 1991, insurance companies have been authorized to conduct all types of operations and to enter into all forms of agreements that are needed to offer risk coverage to customers. Insurance companies may also invest in financial and non-financial assets in order to maintain liquidity and capital requirements to pay their clients when claim occurs.

Peru’s law No. 26702 and Law No. 29946, Ley del contrato de Seguro (the “Peruvian Insurance Contract Law”), which are discussed below, are the main laws governing insurance companies and insurance in Peru. The SBS is the government agency charged with the supervision and regulation of all insurance companies. The incorporation of an insurance company requires prior authorization of the SBS. Also, the SMV supervises and regulates insurance companies through Peru’s Law No. 26126 and its amendments.

On May 27, 2013, Insurance Law No. 29946 became effective. Law No. 29946 governs all insurance contracts, except for those that are expressly governed by other regulations. It substantially changes how insurance policies are offered by insurance companies, regulates the information provided by the insured and includes changes to termination and arbitration clauses included in insurance contracts. Law No. 29946 also provides a list of terms and conditions that cannot be included in any insurance contract and ensures that any changes in the contract can only be made if 45 days’ notice is given to the policyholder prior to renewal of the policy. Other measures include restrictions on the duration and renewal of contracts, consumer protection rules, and regulations governing how to address non-payment of premium installments required under insurance contracts.

In September 2013, the SBS established a tender process for the exclusive right to manage collective insurance policy for D&S and burial expenses of the PPS as part of its reform.

Peruvian insurance companies must submit regular reports to the SBS concerning their operations. In addition, the SBS conducts on-site reviews on an annual basis, primarily to evaluate compliance with solvency margin, reserve and investment requirements and rules governing the recognition of premium income. If the SBS determines that a company is unable to meet the solvency margin or technical reserve requirements or is unable to pay claims as they become due, it may either liquidate the company or permit it to merge with another insurance company.

Under Peruvian law, insurance companies may engage in certain credit risk operations, such as guarantees, bonds, and trusteeships, but are prohibited from offering other banking services, operating mutual funds, or offering portfolio management services. In addition, insurance companies may not conduct brokerage operations for third parties.

143

Table of Contents

Peruvian insurance companies are also prohibited by an SBS resolution (SBS Resolution No. 3930-2017) from having an ownership interest in other insurance or reinsurance companies of the same class unless such risks are offset by insurance companies acting as subsidiaries and that risk is withdrawn from the principal insurance company’s activities. This resolution also prohibits Peruvian insurance companies from having an ownership interest in private pension funds.

Peruvian law establishes certain minimum capital requirements for insurance and reinsurance companies, which must be satisfied by cash investments in the company.

Pension Funds

The operations of pensions funds in Peru are regulated by the Unified Text of the Private System for the Administration of Fund Act, approved by Supreme Decree No. 054-97-EF, and modified by Law No. 29903, which has been in force in Peru since August 2013.

Under Peruvian legislation, AFPs must have only one business activity: managing pension funds through individual capitalization accounts, sourced by mandatory and/ or voluntary contributions. AFPs must also provide benefits for retirement, disability, and survivorship and finance funeral expenses.

Finance companies

Under the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law, finance companies are authorized to carry out the same operations as banks, except for (i) issuing loans as overdrafts in checking accounts and (ii) participating in derivative operations. These operations can be carried out by finance companies only if they fulfill the requirements stated by the SBS.

Other financial institutions

The Peruvian financial system has a number of less significant entities that may provide credit, accept deposits, or otherwise act as financial intermediaries on a limited basis. Leasing companies specialize in financial leasing operations where goods are leased over the term of the contract and in which one party has the option of purchasing the goods at a predetermined price. Savings and loans associations or cooperatives may accept certain types of savings deposits and provide other similar financial services.

Peru also has numerous mutual housing associations, municipal savings and credit associations, savings and credit cooperatives and municipal credit bureaus. Over the past seven years, the entry of new participants, including foreign banks and non-bank financial institutions, has increased the level of competition in Peru.

Peruvian Commercial Banks Regulation - BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco

Management of operational risk requirements

SBS Resolution No. 37-2008, Reglamento de la Gestión Integral de Riesgos (Risk Management Regulation), which had set forth the guidelines for enterprise risk management, was replaced by SBS Resolution No. 272-2017, Reglamento de Gobierno Corporativo y de la Gestión Integral de Riesgos (the “Corporate Governance and Risk Management Regulation”), which introduced the following guidelines regarding risk management:

Risk management must consider the macroeconomic environment that affects the markets in which the company operates;

New types of risk were incorporated in the regulation: (a) money laundering and terrorist financing risk, defined as the possibility of the company being used for money laundering and terrorist financing purposes; and (b) reinsurance risk, defined as the possibility of losses caused by the insufficiency of reinsurance coverage contracted by the assigning insurance company; and,

Liquidity may be understood as the possibility of losses due to anticipated or forced sale of assets at unusual discounts for the company to meet its obligations, as well as not being able to close open positions or cover positions in sufficient quantity. Before this modification, it was understood as the possibility of losses caused by the failure to comply with the financing requirements and the application of funds arising from the mismatches of cash flows requirements.

In addition, the Corporate Governance and Risk Management Regulation provides that companies must incorporate a centralized unit or units specialized in specific risk management. Under the previous regulation, this was optional. The SBS may require companies to create specialized risk units if considered necessary. Under the previous regulation, if the company did not have a specialized risk unit, it was understood that these functions had been assigned to the CEO. With the new regulation, this provision has been eliminated.

Companies must submit their annual risk reports to the SBS within 90 days from the end of each year.

Credicorp, following these SBS requirements, as well as the guidelines issued by the Basel Committee and the advice of international consultants, has appointed a specialized team responsible for operational risk management across our organization. This team reports regularly to our risk committee, top managers, and the Board of Directors.

145

Table of Contents

In evaluating operational risks and potential consequences, we mainly assess risks related to critical processes, critical suppliers, critical information assets, technological components, new products and significant changes to our services and channels. To support the operational risk management process, we have developed a Business Continuity Management (BCM) discipline, which involves the implementation of continuity plans for critical business processes, incident management, and training and testing. In addition, our methodology and data processing team has developed procedures to register, collect, analyze, and report operational risk losses, using advanced models for operational risk capital allocation. We also have monitoring and reporting procedures that are designed to monitor KRIs and other performance metrics.

We intend to be guided by the risk control standards of international financial institutions that are noted for their leadership in this field. Our overall objective is to implement an efficient and permanent monitoring system to control operational risks, while training our operational units to mitigate risks directly.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we are required to make certain certifications regarding our internal controls over financial reporting. We have developed internal methods to identify and evaluate risk and controls over our critical processes to determinate how effective internal controls are over financial reporting using the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) 2013 Internal Control Framework.

Capital adequacy requirements

Capital adequacy requirements applicable to us are set forth in Peru’s Law No. 26702 and Legislative Decree No. 1028. Legislative Decree No. 1028 was aimed at adapting Law No. 26702 to the capital guidelines and standards established by the second Basel Committee Accord (Basel II). Capital adequacy requirements are also included in Peruvian GAAP guidelines. Pursuant to Basel II guidelines, financial institutions are required to hold regulatory capital that is greater than or equal to the sum of (i) 10% of credit RWAs, and (ii) 10 times the amount required to cover market and operational risks.

Since July 2009, Peruvian financial institutions generally have applied a standardized approach to calculate their capital requirements related to credit, market, and operational risk. As an alternative to the standardized approach, financial institutions may request authorization from the SBS to use different models for calculating the reserve amount associated with any of these three risks. In July 2009, the SBS started accepting applications to use alternative models, referred to as Internal Models Methods. If the amount of an institution’s reserve requirements would be higher using the standard model than it would be using the approved Internal Models Method, then the institution will have to maintain between 80% and 95% of the standard amount during a phase-in period. Even after the phase-in period, institutions using an Internal Models Method are subject to regulatory capital floors.

Table of Contents

On July 20, 2011, the SBS issued SBS Resolution No. 8425-2011, establishing the methodologies and the implementation schedule of additional capital requirements consistent with certain aspects of the Basel International Regulatory Framework for Banks (Basel III), which is a comprehensive set of reform measures and guidelines, followed by the SBS, to strengthen the regulation, supervision, and risk management of the banking sector. The additional capital requirements include requirements to cover concentration, excessive interest rate risk in the banking book and systemically important risk. Additionally, pro-cyclical capital requirements were established. These additional requirements were fully implemented in July 2016.

SBS Resolution No. 8548-2012, adopted in 2012, modified the regulatory capital requirements for credit RWAs in SBS Resolution No. 14354-2009 and established a schedule for implementing the modifications.

On February 24, 2016, the SBS issued Resolution 975-2016 (the “Subordinated Debt Regulation”), which aims to improve the quality of banks’ total regulatory capital and align Peruvian regulation towards Basel III, by modifying:

•

The characteristics that subordinated debt must meet to be considered in the calculation of total regulatory capital; and

•

The calculation of RWAs.

Under the Subordinated Debt Regulation, subordinated debt issued prior to the regulation that did not meet the requirements was to be recognized as total regulatory capital, according to the following:

•

Tier 1 subordinated debt: as of January 2017, and for 10 years following, Tier 1 subordinated debt is subject to a 10% discount. However, the amount not computable as Tier 1 regulatory capital may be computed as a Tier 2 instrument if it has a residual maturity equal to or greater than 15 years.

•

In November 2019, BCP Stand-alone redeemed the total amount of its Tier 1 subordinated debt issuance (issued in 2009) totaling US$250 million. Thus, as of December 2019, neither Tier 1 nor Tier 2 of BCP’s regulatory capital was comprised of non-compliant Tier 1 subordinated debt.

•

Tier 2 subordinated debt: during the five years prior to maturity, the principal balance will be discounted by 20%. In the year prior to its maturity, the Tier 2 subordinated debt will not be considered in the calculation of Tier 2. This treatment did not change compared to previous regulation. As a result, Tier 2 Subordinated debt issued previous to the rule was grandfathered.

In addition, the Subordinated Debt Regulation also included changes to the calculation of RWAs of the following accounting items:

•

Intangibles (excluding goodwill);

•

Deferred tax assets (DTAs) that are originated by operating losses; and

•

DTAs that are associated with temporary differences and that exceed the threshold of 10% of the “adjusted total capital”. In each case, DTAs are to be net of deferred income tax liabilities.

Table of Contents

These assets will experience a gradual increase in their risk weights (until they reach a maximum of 1,000% in 2026) to replicate the deductions established by Basel III. The RWAs calculated based on these risk weights will be used exclusively for calculating the Basel III ratios.

SBS Resolution No. 4280-2018, adopted in October 2018, modified the risk weight applied to intangibles (excluding goodwill) to speed up the increase in this risk weight towards 100%, with the purpose of closing the regulatory gap with Basel III guidelines, which clearly require intangibles to be fully deducted from core capital measurements.

In March 2020, as the scale of the global COVID-19-induced economic shock became apparent, the SBS passed Resolution 1264-2020, which suspended the countercyclical capital requirements for the banking system, unlocking a significant capital buffer for local banks, which was built during the last several years, in order to prevent a credit contraction.

Furthermore, in April 2020, the Ministry of Finance and the BCRP engineered and launched a large credit-enhancement program, Reactiva Peru, in response to the economic crisis, which comprised government guarantees for a broad range of loans to local enterprises. This program successfully promoted the expansion of credit to local enterprises in 2020 without consuming significant capital requirements to local banks.

As some of the restrictions and consequences due to COVID-19 continued in early 2021, Presidential Urgent Decree No. 037-2021 was approved in March 2021. The minimum global capital ratio, which is the minimum requirement mandated by the regulator, was temporarily reduced from 10% to 8%. This gave an additional buffer to financial institutions until the economic outlook start presenting stronger signs of improvement. The same decree ordered the minimum global capital ratio to be lifted back to 10% in March 2022.

In December 2021, the SBS issued Resolution 3718-2021, modifying cyclical provisions from Resolution 11356-2008 and, as an extension, the activation of the countercyclical capital buffer. Among the main changes were decreasing the threshold for the activation of the countercyclical rule from 5% to 4% for the average of annualized percentage change in GDP for the last 30 months and the minimum rates for the cyclical provision component. The countercyclical capital buffer cannot be activated before January 1, 2024.

Additionally, in December 2021, the SBS adopted Resolution 3921-2021, which adds capital rules regarding the domestic systemically important capital requirement, which is a requirement similar to the D-SIB under Basel III where an additional requirement is calculated based on the relative size of the bank within the local financial system. This additional requirement affects both BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco by increasing Credicorp’s regulatory capital requirement. The changes have a transition phase of two years, with 75% of the additional requirements taking effect in December 2022 and the full requirement to become effective in December 2023.

148

Table of Contents

Also, in the same decree, the temporarily reduction of the minimum global capital ratio was extended and is contemplated to be raised again to 8.5% beginning September 2022, 9.0% beginning March 2023, 9.5% beginning September 2023 and finally back to 10% in March 2024.

Regulatory capital from January 2023.

In March 2022, Legislative Decree 1531 was passed by the Government, revising the regulatory capital definition rules in Banking Law 26702. Changes were aimed at better compliance with the standards established by Basel III. The new regulatory capital framework defines three minimum requirement limits: CET1 at 4.5%, Tier 1 Capital at 6.0% and total regulatory capital at 10%. The definitions of capital buffers are expected to be revised in a forthcoming regulation. Although the main changes made by Legislative Decree 1531 are effective as of January 2023, the SBS has not yet enacted regulations related to the implementation of the law.

Among other changes, Legislative Decree 1531 changed the definition of regulatory capital to the following:

Regulatory Tier 1 Capital is composed by Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) and Additional Tier 1 (AT1) capital:

CET 1:

a) Common shares and other capital instruments, as long as they have been paid and comply with the conditions indicated by the SBS;

b) Issue premium of common shares and other capital instruments indicated in subparagraph a);

c) Earnings from prior years and from the year in progress, in accordance with the provisions of the SBS;

d) Unrealized gains, as designated by the SBS;

e) Legal reserves and optional reserves;

f) Donations that meet the conditions designated by the SBS;

g) Other elements defined by the SBS by means of a general rule; and

h) Regulatory adjustments that include the following deductions:

i. Losses from prior years and from the current year;

ii. Unrealized losses, as allowed by the SBS;

iii. Shortfall in provisions determined by the SBS;

iv. Goodwill, resulting from reorganizations or acquisitions;

v. Intangible assets, other than those indicated in item iv;

vi. Deferred income tax assets originated due to carryover losses;

vii. Deferred income tax assets, net of deferred income tax liabilities, originated due to temporary differences that exceed the threshold established by the SBS;

c) Other elements defined by the Superintendency by means of a general rule; and

d) Regulatory adjustments that include the following Deductions from Additional Tier 1 Capital:

i. Direct or indirect holding of instruments of capital and/or subordinated debt computable in the Additional Tier 1 capital, which have been issued by the company itself and that are kept in the treasury. Also includes owned computable instruments in Additional Tier 1 capital for which there is a present or contingent obligation to acquire them by virtue of contractual obligations;

ii. Investments in equity and/or subordinated debt instruments computable in Additional Tier 1 Capital issued by companies in the financial or insurance system, in Peru or abroad.

iii. Equity instruments and subordinated debt eligible for Additional Tier 1 Capital, issued by companies with which a company consolidates financial statements, including certain holding companies and subsidiaries, in accordance with rules established by the SBS;

v. Other deductions determined by the SBS through a general regulation.

Regulatory Tier 2 Capital, which includes the following elements:

b) Share premium of capital instruments indicated in item a);

c) For banks using the SBS standardized approach method, the generic loan loss provision up to 1.25% of credit RWAs; or, alternatively, for banks using the internal ratings-based (IRB) method, the generic loan loss provision up to 0.6% of total credit RWAs (pursuant to Article 189 of Law No. 26702);

d) Other elements defined by the SBS by means of a general rule; and

e) Regulatory adjustments that include the following Tier 2 net worth deductions:

i. Direct or indirect holding of instruments of capital and/or subordinated debt computable as part of Regulatory Tier 2 Capital, which have been issued by the company itself and that are kept in the treasury.

iv. Other deductions determined by the SBS through a general regulation.

Legislative Decree 1531 also provides that the following limits apply when calculating regulatory capital:

1. Additional Tier 1 Capital must not exceed one-third of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital. The excess above said limit can be including certain holding companies as Regulatory Tier 2 Capital.

2. Regulatory Tier 2 Capital should not be greater than two-thirds of the Regulatory Tier 1 Capital. The excess over said limit is not computable in total regulatory capital.

Internal Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1)

In November 2013, BCP Stand-alone’ s Board of Directors decided to track the Basel III ratio known as CET1. CET1 comprises:

•

paid-in-capital (which includes common stock and perpetual non-cumulative preferred stock);

•

legal and other capital reserves;

•

accumulated earnings;

•

unrealized profits (losses);

•

deficits of loan loss provisions;

•

intangibles;

•

net deferred taxes that rely on future profitability;

•

goodwill resulting from corporate reorganizations or acquisitions; and

100% of the amount referred to in “Deductions” above.

In December 2022, the pending resolutions referred to in the amendments to the Banking Law 26702 – established by Legislative Decree 1531 on March 2022 – were published (SBS N°03950-2022, SBS N°03951-2022, No. 03952-2022, No. 03953-2022, No. 03954-2022, and No. 03955-2022). Below we highlight the main changes defined in this set of resolutions:

•

SBS Resolution No. 03952-2022 ordered the minimum total regulatory capital ratio to be gradually raised back to 10% from 8% under the following schedule: in September 2022 to 8.5%, in March 2023 to 9%, in September 2023 to 9.5% and in March 2024 to 10%.

•

SBS Resolution No. 03954-2022 defined capital requirement buffers: conservation buffer, domestic systemically importance buffer and countercyclical buffer.

The conservation buffer was first introduced in local regulation. This buffer requires maintaining an additional capital of 2.5% of RWAs and it should be covered by CET1 capital. This requirement will have a transition phase of four years until December 2026.

Domestic systemically important capital requirement and countercyclical capital requirements (when activated) should be covered with CET1 capital.

•

SBS Resolution No. 03953-2022 defined additional capital requirements. These requirements were maintained from previous regulation and should be covered with Regulatory Tier 2 Capital.

•

SBS Resolution No. 03950-2022 defined the new subordinated debt regulation. No material changes were introduced compared to the previous regulation (SBS Resolution No. 975-2016).

CET1 Internal Targets

In October 2018, BCP Stand-alone’s Risk Committee approved an increase in CET1 ratio limits for BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, targeting them at 11% and 15%, respectively. These limits are part of their risk appetite framework. BCP Stand-alone’s CET1 ratio is estimated based on BCP Stand-alone’s understanding, expectations and interpretation of the proposed Basel III requirements in Peru.

From January 21, 2022, the Risk Committee has decided to start monitoring the CET1 with IFRS balances, not local ones.

Surveillance, intervention and liquidation

The bankruptcy of financial institutions in Peru is regulated by the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law and the rules and regulations enacted thereunder, including SBS Resolution No. 0455-99, Reglamento de los Regímenes Especiales de la Liquidación de las Empresas del Sistema Financiero y del Sistema de Seguros (the Banking Intervention and Liquidation Regulations).

152

Table of Contents

Pursuant to the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law, the SBS has the authority to seize the operations and assets of a bank. Under such regulations, prior to being liquidated and dissolved, banks undergo two separate and distinct stages: (i) a surveillance period (régimen de vigilancia) and (ii) an intervention period (intervención).The SBS will submit a bank to a surveillance or intervention regime if certain events occur, such as if the bank: (i) interrupts payments on its liabilities, (ii) repeatedly fails to comply with the regulations of the SBS or the BCRP, (iii) repeatedly violates the law or the provisions of the bank’s bylaws, (iv) repeatedly manages its operations in an unauthorized or unsound manner or (v) has its regulatory capital fall or be reduced by more than 50%.

The SBS may initiate surveillance of a financial institution when the financial institution breaches certain material obligations, or the overall financial stability of the institution becomes at risk. Surveillance could last for a period of up to 45 days, which may be renewable once for the same period of time. Within seven business days from the date on which the surveillance is commenced by the SBS against a financial institution, the institution must propose a recovery plan that, if approved by the SBS, should be expected to bring the financial institution to financial stability.

To the extent that a financial institution subject to surveillance by the SBS breaches the recovery plan approved by the SBS or otherwise becomes subject to intervention, the SBS must issue a public resolution stating that such financial institution has been intervened by the SBS.

Upon the publication of the SBS intervention resolution, the financial institution is subject to an automatic stay, protecting the assets of the intervened company, which is no longer allowed to operate and the SBS is granted the ability to administer and dispose of part or all of the assets and liabilities of such company. Hence, the following actions are temporarily suspended: (i) collection of debts (judicially or administratively), (ii) execution of any judicial order, (iii) creation of liens, and (iv) making payments, advances, or offsetting debts; although statute regulates some specific cases where offsetting is admitted during the stay.

During the intervention regime, rather than seizing the operations and assets of a bank, the SBS may adopt other measures, including (i) placing additional requirements on the bank, (ii) ordering it to increase its capital stock or divest certain or all of its assets, or (iii) imposing a special supervision regime during which the bank must adhere to a financial restructuring plan.

The SBS intervention regime stops a bank’s operations for up to 45 days, which may be extended once for an additional 45-day period of time. During this time, the SBS may institute measures such as: (i) canceling losses by reducing reserves, capital, and subordinated debt, (ii) segregating certain assets and liabilities for transfer to another financial institution, and (iii) merging the intervened bank with an acquiring institution according to the program established by Presidential Urgent Decree No. 108-2000. After the intervention, the financial institution typically undergoes liquidation and is dissolved unless it is merged with an acquiring institution, as described in clause (iii) above.

153

Table of Contents

Once the dissolution of the financial institution is declared by resolution issued by the SBS, the settlement process begins and all payments are made in accordance with the payments priority provided in the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law: (a) wages and social benefits of the bank’s employees, (b) return of saving deposits (the portion not covered by the Deposit Insurance Fund), (c) tax obligations, and (d) the rest of the obligations under general rules of payment.

Liens created against bank’s assets survive the dissolution, but the following rules apply:

Each encumbered asset is sold separately;

The proceeds of the sales are deposited separately from the rest of the bank’s assets to preferentially pay the secured obligations;

If the wages and social benefits of the bank’s employees are fully paid with the rest of the company’s assets, the proceeds described in clause (2) above are used to pay the secured obligations. Otherwise, they are used to complete such payments, reducing pro-rata the amount available for payment of secured obligations;

If the secured obligations are fully paid and there is an excess from the proceeds described in clause (2) above, the balance is added to the rest of the bank’s assets; and

If the secured obligations are not fully paid, the unpaid balance is treated as an unsecured obligation and may be collected, if possible, against the rest of the bank’s assets.

Legal reserve requirements

In accordance with Peruvian regulation (article 67 of Law No. 26702), a reserve of up to at least 35% of paid-in capital of the Group’s subsidiaries operating in Peru is required to be established through annual transfers of at least 10% of their net profit.

Lending activities requirements

Law No. 26702 sets the maximum amount of credit that a financial institution may extend to a single borrower, whether the borrower is an individual or an economic group. SBS Resolution No. 5780-2015 establishes that an “economic group” is one that has a single or common risk exposure and includes a person, such person’s close relatives and the companies in which such person or his or her close relatives have significant share ownership or decision-making capability. Significant decision-making capability is deemed to be present when, among other factors, a person or group can exercise material and continuous influence over the decisions of a company, when a person or company holds seats on the Board of Directors or has principal officers in another company, or when it can be assumed that one company or person is the beneficiary of credit facilities granted to another company.

154

Table of Contents

The limit on credit that may be extended to any single borrower varies according to the type of borrower and the collateral received. The credit limit for any Peruvian borrower is 10% of a bank’s regulatory capital, applied to both unconsolidated and consolidated records, which may be increased to up to 30% if the loan is collateralized in a manner acceptable under Law No. 26702. If a financial institution exceeds these limits, the SBS may impose a fine on the institution. As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the 10.0% unconsolidated credit limit per borrower of BCP Stand-alone for unsecured loans was S/1,940.8 million, S/2,121.0 million, S/2,277.2 million and S/2,336.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the 30.0% credit limit for secured loans was S/6,363.1 million and S/6,831.6 million and S/7,009.3 million, respectively.

Effective since April 2021, the BCRP, pursuant to article 52 of its Organic Law, established caps on interest rates that could be charged by commercial banks and other financial institutions for SME and personal loans. In the case of Banco de Crédito del Peru, the application of these caps only had a marginal impact on consumer loans.

In addition, according to SBS Resolution No. 6941-2008, as amended, banks and other financial entities must adopt a system to manage the risk of over-indebtedness that (a) allows the mitigation of such risk before and after making the loan, (b) permits permanent monitoring of the portfolio to identify over-indebted borrowers and (c) includes the periodic evaluation of the control mechanisms being used and corrective actions or required improvements, as the case may be.

Interest rates caps

On March 18, 2021, the Usury Law Regulation was enacted. It establishes, among other provisions, that the BCRP has the power to set caps on active interest rates of the financial system for consumer credits, low amount consumer credits (less than 2 Tax Units) and credits to micro and small enterprises (Micro y Pequeña Empresas or Mype by their Spanish initials). Through Circular No. 0008-2021-BCRP of April 2021, the BCRP determined that this interest rate cap is equivalent to twice the average interest rate for consumer loans in the financial system.

The interest rate cap will be calculated semi-annual based on the interest rates of consumption loans in the financial system between two and seven months prior to its validity. For the period between November 2022 and April 2023, the annual interest rate cap stands at 87.91% in domestic currency and 68.27% in foreign currency.

Portfolio classification requirement

In order to comply with the SBS regulation, we have a loan portfolio classified in accordance with SBS Resolution No. 11356-2008 and it was amended as of July 1, 2010. For this reason, a bank's portfolio is classified into eight different categories: corporate, large companies, medium-sized companies, small companies, micro-companies. Commercial, consumer revolving, non-renewable consumer, and residential mortgage loans.

Related party transactions requirements

The Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law regulates transactions between financial institutions on the one hand and related parties or affiliates on the other. The SBS and the SMV have also enacted regulations that define indirect ownership, related parties, and economic groups, in order to limit transactions with related parties and affiliates. These regulations also provide standards for the supervision of financial and mixed conglomerates formed by financial institutions.

The total amount of loans to directors, employees, or close relatives of any such persons may not exceed 7% of a bank’s regulatory capital. All loans made to any single director or employee borrower, considering his or her close relatives, may not exceed 0.35% of regulatory capital (that is, 5% of the overall 7% limit).

Pursuant to the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law, the aggregate amount of loans to related party borrowers considered to be part of an economic group (as defined above) may not exceed 30% of a bank’s regulatory capital. For purposes of this test, related party borrowers include (i) any person holding, directly or indirectly, 4% or more of a bank’s shares, (ii) directors, (iii) certain principal executive officers of a bank, and (iv) people affiliated with the administrators of the bank. Loans to individual related party borrowers are also subject to the limits on lending to a single borrower described under “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1 Peru”. All loans to related parties must be made on terms no more favorable than the best terms that BCP Stand-alone or Mibanco offers to the public.

Ownership restrictions

The Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law establishes certain restrictions on the ownership of a bank’s shares. Banks must have a minimum of two shareholders. Among other restrictions, those convicted of drug trafficking, money laundering, terrorism, or other felonies, and those who are directors, employees or advisors of public entities that regulate and supervise the activities of banks, are subject to ownership limitations. All transfers of shares in a bank must be recorded at the SBS. Transfers involving the acquisition by any individual or corporation, whether directly or indirectly, of more than 10% of a bank’s capital stock require prior authorization from the SBS. The SBS may deny authorization to such transfer of shares if the purchasers (or their shareholders, directors, or employees, in the case of juridical persons) are legally disabled or have engaged in illegal activity in the area of banking, finance, insurance or reinsurance, or if objections are raised on the basis of the purchaser’s moral fitness or economic solvency, among other reasons. The decision of the SBS on such matters is final and cannot be overturned by the courts. If a transfer is made without obtaining the prior approval of the SBS, the purchaser shall be fined with an amount equivalent to the value of the transferred shares and is obligated to sell the shares within 30 days, or the fine is doubled. In addition, the purchaser is not allowed to exercise its voting rights at the shareholders’ meetings. Foreign investors receive the same treatment as Peruvian nationals under the limitations described above.

Table of Contents

Additionally, the Merger Control Law, which entered into force on June 14, 2021, provides that any transaction that causes ownerships to cross the threshold set by such law and can result in action in concert, must have the authorization of INDECOPI. According to the Merger Control Law, the prior concentration control operations of economic agents included in the scope of the regulation and supervision of the SBS and/or SMV is carried out by INDECOPI, without prejudice to prior control of a prudential nature and financial stability that corresponds to the SBS and/or SMV. The merger transaction proceeds if there is due authorization from INDECOPI and from the SBS and/or the SMV accordingly. In the case of merger transactions operations that include companies in the financial system that take deposits from the public or insurance companies, that show relevant and imminent risks or compromise the stability of the aforementioned companies or the systems that they integrate, only the prior control of the SBS is required in its area of competence, given the reserved nature of said situation, which must be determined by the SBS.

Finally, under the Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law, individuals or corporations that acquire, directly or indirectly, 1% of the capital stock of a bank in a period of 12 months, or acquire a 3% or more share participation, have the obligation to provide the information that the SBS may require to identify such individuals’ or corporations’ main economic activities and asset structure.

Risk rating requirements

Law No. 26702 and SBS Resolutions No. 672 and 18400-2010 require that all financial companies be rated by at least two risk rating companies on a semi-annual basis, in addition to the SBS’s assessment. Criteria to be considered in the rating include risk management and control procedures, loan quality, financial strength, profitability, liquidity, and financial efficiency. Five risk categories are assigned, from “A” (lowest risk) to “E” (highest risk), allowing for sub-categories within each category. In September 2022, the Moody’s Local PE Clasificadora de Riesgos S.A. and Apoyo y Asociados Internacionales S.A.C. rating agencies affirmed their respective “A+” risk rating for BCP Stand-alone. In September 2021, both rating agencies affirmed their “A” risk rating for Mibanco. As of December 2022, BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco maintained the risk rating of “A+” and “A”, respectively, with both rating agencies.

Deposit insurance fund

The Peruvian Banking and Insurance Law provides for mandatory deposit insurance to protect the deposits of financial institutions by establishing the Deposit Insurance Fund for individuals, associations, not-for-profit companies, and demand deposits of non-financial companies. Financial institutions must pay an annual premium calculated and based on the type of deposits accepted by the entity and the risk classification of such entity, as rated by the SBS and at least two independent risk-rating agencies. The annual premium, as, begins at 0.45% of total funds on deposit and increases to 1.45%, which is applicable to banks in the highest risk category. BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco are currently classified in the lowest risk category and pay the 0.45% set by SBS Resolution No. 0657-99.

The maximum amount that a customer is entitled to recover from the Deposit Insurance Fund is S/125,714.00 for the period starting from March 2023 until May 2023.

(iv)

Peruvian Insurance Companies Regulation - Grupo Pacífico

Solvency requirements

Pursuant to Law No. 26702, the SBS regulates the solvency margin of Peruvian insurance companies. The solvency margin calculations consider the amount of premiums written and losses incurred during a specified period prior to the date of the calculation.

Insurance companies must also maintain solvency equity, which must be the greater of (i) the solvency margin and (ii) the minimum capital requirement, as established by law. The required amount of solvency equity is recalculated at least quarterly. If an insurance company has outstanding credit risk operations, part of the solvency equity must be set aside for its coverage.

Legal reserve requirements

Peruvian law also requires that all insurance companies establish a legal guarantee reserve for policyholders by setting aside 10% of income before taxes until the reserve reaches at least 35% of paid-in capital.

Technical reserve requirements

Pursuant to Law No. 26702 and regulations issued by the SBS, Peruvian insurance companies must establish technical reserves. Law No. 26702 also requires insurance companies to create a reserve for incurred but not reported (IBNR) claims that are reflected as a liability in their consolidated financial statements. Reserves for IBNR claims are estimated by using generally accepted actuarial reserving methods. See Note 3(e) to our consolidated financial statements. Finally, Grupo Pacífico is required by the SBS to establish pre-event reserves for risk of catastrophes, which, in accordance with IFRS principles, are not considered in our financial statements. See “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.A Operating results – (6) Lines of Business (LoBs) – 6.3 Insurance & Pensions – (i) Grupo Pacífico”.

158

Table of Contents

According to a new regulation regarding actuarial management, SBS Resolution No. 3863-2016, the actuarial function must (i) ensure the use of real and adequate parameters in both pricing and technical reserves calculation and (ii) guarantee the consistency of the results obtained. Likewise, based on the sufficiency evaluation analysis, actuarial management must propose changes in the methodologies applied in the calculation of technical or additional reserves.

Investment requirements

Pursuant to Law No. 26702 and SBS Resolution No. 1041-2016, the total amount of an insurance company’s solvency equity and technical reserves must be permanently supported by diversified assets, which may not be pledged or otherwise encumbered. The investment regulations further state that deposits in and bonds of a single financial institution together cannot exceed 7% of the total of an insurer’s solvency equity and technical reserves combined. In general, no more than 15% of an insurance company’s combined solvency equity and technical reserves may be invested in instruments (including stocks and bonds) issued by a company or group of companies. In order for an insurance company to invest in non-Peruvian securities, the securities must be rated investment grade by an internationally recognized credit rating agency and the asset class must be authorized by Peruvian SBS regulations. Securities owned by insurance companies must be registered in the Public Registry of Securities of Peru or the comparable registry of their respective country.

Related party transactions requirements

Law No. 26702 provides that insurance companies may not extend credit to or guarantee the obligations of employees or members of their Board of Directors, except for certain home mortgage loans to employees.

Ownership restrictions

Law No. 26702 sets forth the same types of restrictions regarding the ownership and transfer of insurance company shares as it does regarding the ownership and transfer of shares in banks. See “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1. Peru”.

Market Conduct Regulation

During 2021 and 2022, Peruvian insurance companies have been involved in implementing a series of improvements in market conduct rules, as set forth in SBS Resolutions No. 4143-2019 and No. 1840-2022, including in their practices in relationships with customers, in the offer or promotion of insurance products, and the transparency of information and the management of claims.

Peruvian Pension Fund Regulation – Prima AFP

Minimum capital requirements

SBS authorization is required for an AFP to begin operations. Peruvian law requires a minimum capital requirement, paid in cash by shareholders. There are certain limitations on the ownership and transfer of AFP shares. Additionally, Peruvian law requires that companies maintain a legal reserve funded with 10% of their net profit, until the reserve reaches the equivalent of 20% of their share capital

Investment limits

The SBS has set investment limits, which restrict investments in certain asset classes, economic groups, and issuers. In addition, some of these limits differ according to the fund’s risk profile. The general limits are:

•

The total amount invested in instruments issued or guaranteed by the Peruvian State cannot exceed 30% of the fund value;

•

The total amount invested in instruments issued or guaranteed by the BCRP cannot exceed 30% of the fund value;

PPS Reforms

PPS Reform and changes of the PPS between 2012 and 2017

Since 2012, the PPS has undergone several reforms and changes applied by the Peruvian government and its regulators. The most relevant changes from 2012 to 2017 were the following:

•

In 2012, a tender process held every 24 months was incorporated. In this process the AFP that offers the lowest management fee wins the tender. As a result, new workers who enter the PPS become members of the tender holder and remain in it for at least 24 months.

•

In 2014, new local and foreign investment regulations made the PPS registration process for new investment securities more flexible. It allows AFPs to make non-complex investments and use derivatives instruments under certain restriction without authorization from the SBS.

•

In 2015, SBS Resolution No. 5540-2015 was also published and regulates the new Fund Type Zero, which is mandatory for participants from the age of 65 and up who opt for a statutory retirement pension. The Fund Type Zero became effective on April 1, 2016 and invests only in national currency short-term instruments and debt securities.

•

In April 2016, Peruvian Law No. 30425 (further modified by Law No. 30478) was passed and came into force in Peru. Among the most relevant changes, the law allows affiliates to: (i) withdraw up to 95.5% of their pension funds when they reach the age of 65 (retirement age); (ii) use up to 25% of their pension funds as the down payment or amortization of a mortgage loan used to buy a first house; and (iii) in the case of affiliates with terminal illness, withdraw up to 50% of their pension funds. The new law also extended the Special Regime of Early Retirement until December 31, 2018, for affiliates who had been unemployed for at least 12 months. The Regime applies to men and women who are at least 55 and 50 years old respectively, and pensioners who choose the retirement program.

•

In 2017, BCRP raised the foreign investment limit up to 46% for pension funds to encourage AFPs to diversify their investments.

For further detail please refer to Credicorp’s previous 2019 20-F document, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (9) Supervision and Regulation – 9.5 Prima AFP”.

Changes to PPS in 2018

Between February and September 2018, the BCRP raised the foreign investment limit for pension funds at a rate of 0.5 percentage points per month until it reached the 50% limit set by the SBS.

In 2018, the withdrawals of funds in Prima AFP totaled approximately S/2,992 million.

Changes to PPS in 2019

On April 3, 2019, Peru’s congress permanently approved the Special Regime of Early Retirement for affiliates with a minimum age of 55 years old for men and 50 years old for women, who are unemployed for at least 12 consecutive months, and who prove an income of less than S/29,400 (7 UIT), to receive independent employment (4^th category) income during their unemployment period. These modifications were promulgated by Peruvian Law No. 30939.

Peru’s congress also approved new criteria to apply for Ordinary Early Retirement. Ordinary Early Retirement is available to affiliates with a minimum age of 55 years old for men and 50 years old for women, who have a pension fund that allows them to access a pension of at least 40% of the average income received during the last 120 months. These modifications were promulgated by Peruvian Law No. 30939. In 2019, the withdrawals of funds in Prima AFP totaled approximately S/2,797 million.

Changes to PPS in 2020

In 2020, to help the population during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Peruvian government and congress took measures to provide liquidity to private pensioners by allowing them to draw down their funds. These measures decreased funds under management and fee income at Prima AFP in 2020 and 2021.

Changes to PPS in 2021

On May 7, 2021, Law No. 31192 was published. It authorized affiliates of the Private Pension Fund Administration System to make a one-time withdrawal of up to S/17,200 from their funds.

On August 6, 2021, Law No. 31332, which reduces from 55 to 50 the minimum age for men to access early retirement, was published.

Bolivian Regulators

Pursuant to Supreme Decree No. 29894, in May 2009, the ASFI was vested with the authority to regulate the Bolivian banking system. The ASFI also supervises brokerage and mutual fund management activities that Credicorp Ltd. conducts through BCP Bolivia’s affiliates, Credibolsa and Credifondo. These affiliates operate under the Securities Markets Law No. 1834, enacted on March 31, 1998. Additionally, the Central Bank of Bolivia (Banco Central de Bolivia or BCB by its Spanish initials) regulates financial intermediation and deposit activities, determines monetary and foreign exchange policy, and establishes reserve requirements on deposits.

Regulation of Bolivian Financial Institutions

Until November 2013, the Bolivian banking system operated under the Law of Banks and Financial Entities (Law No. 1488), enacted on April 14, 1993, and later modified by Law No. 3076 of June 20, 2005. On August 21, 2013, the Bolivian government enacted a new Banking Law (Law No. 393), which became effective on November 21, 2013. This new law envisions a more active role of government in the financial services industry and emphasizes the social objective of financial services.

On December 10, 2010, through the enactment in Bolivia of Law No. 065 (Ley de Pensiones), the supervision of all insurance activities in Bolivia was transferred from the ASFI to the APS (Autoridad de Fiscalización y Control de Pensiones y Seguros). Our life and P&C insurance affiliates in Bolivia, which operate under the commercial name Crediseguro, are thus regulated, and supervised by the APS.

In 2012, the Bolivian government imposed an additional income tax of 12.5% on earnings before taxes, which applied to all financial institutions with a ratio of earnings before taxes to equity in excess of 13%. The additional income tax rate was subsequently increased to 22% in December 2015, and to 25% in March 2017, and was made applicable to all financial institutions with a ratio of earnings before taxes to equity in excess of 6%. Starting in 2021, the additional income tax applies also to Crediseguro, Credibolsa and Credifondo.

In 2013, Supreme Decree No. 1842 set interest rate caps for social housing loans ranging from 5.5% to 6.5%, and for loans to productive sectors (agriculture, tourism, manufacture, etc.). The Decree established loan quotas pursuant to which, by December 31, 2018, and afterwards, at least 60% of the loan portfolio of all universal banks needs to be comprised of loans to productive sectors and social housing loans, with a sublimit that establishes that loans to productive sectors must represent at least 25% of the portfolio.

Further to Law No. 393, in 2014, the Bolivian government, through Supreme Decrees No. 2136 and No. 2137, instructed banks in Bolivia to contribute 6% of that year’s total profits for the creation of a guarantee fund – to be administered by the banks - intended to provide guarantees of up to 50% of the amount financed of productive sector and social housing loans. From 2015 to 2019, and again in 2021, the government instructed banks to contribute 6% of those years’ profits to replenish either the existing guarantee funds or to make contributions to a newly created seed capital fund administered by the government-owned development bank.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, on April 1, 2020, the Bolivian government enacted Law No. 1294, which established the automatic deferral of all loan installments (capital, interest, and other charges) payable to financial institutions for the duration of Bolivian Coronavirus Pandemic Emergency Declaration. These deferred installments will start to be collected after the final installment established on the original payment schedule. Supreme Decree No. 4206 established an initial deferral period from March 2020 to May 2020, which was subsequently extended to August 2020 through Supreme Decree No. 4248, and then to December 2020 through Law No. 1319.

On December 2, 2020, the Bolivian government issued Supreme Decree No. 4409, establishing that the capital portion of the installments that had been deferred in 2020 would not accrue interest until their cancellation. Supreme Decree No. 4409 also established that once the deferral period has concluded, upon request of the borrowers that had their installments deferred, banks must refinance and/or reschedule their loans, based on the borrowers’ economic situation and payment capacity. The refinanced and/or rescheduled loans have the benefit of a six-month grace period during which no interest or capital payments are required from the borrower. The collection of the amount of interest accrued but not collected during the aforementioned grace period will be made pro rata during the new term of the loan.

On December 28, 2020, the Bolivian government enacted Law No.1356, eliminating the tax exemption for capital gains generated in the Bolivian Stock Exchange and introducing an additional income tax of 25% applicable to all brokerage houses, mutual fund administrators and insurance companies with a ratio of earnings before taxes to equity in excess of 6%.

(7) Selected statistical information

In the following tables, we have set forth certain selected statistical information and ratios regarding our business for the periods indicated. You should read the selected statistical information in conjunction with the information included in “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.A Operating Results” and the consolidated financial statements (and the notes that accompany the consolidated financial statements). The statistical information and discussion and analysis given below for the years 2020 through 2022 reflect our consolidated financial position as well as that of our subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022 and our results of operations for the years then ended.

7.1 Average statements of financial position. Income from interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities

The tables below set forth selected statistical information based on our average statements of financial position prepared on a consolidated basis. Except as otherwise indicated, we have classified average balances by currency (Soles or foreign currency, primarily US Dollars) rather than by the domestic or international nature of the balance. For the years 2020, 2021 and 2022, the average balances are computed as the average of period-beginning and period-ending balances on a monthly basis. Any of these month-end balances that were denominated in US Dollars have been converted into Soles using the applicable SBS exchange rate as of the date of such balance. Our management believes that the stated averages are representative of our operations, and that it would be too costly to produce daily averages using daily book balances in IFRS but does not believe that the stated averages present trends in a materially different manner from those that would be presented by daily averages.

7.1.1 Changes in net interest, similar income, and expense: volume and rate analysis

The table below sets forth the net effect on annual variation in interest income and interest expense of increases and decreases due to changes in volume and rate. Volume and rate variations have been calculated based on variations in average balances over the period and changes in average rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities from one period to the other. The net changes in “Interest and similar income” and “Interest and similar expense” attributable to both changes in functional currency (Sol) and changes in foreign currency also are presented in the table:

The maturities of our investment securities classified as fair value through other comprehensive income, as of December 31, 2022, are described in “ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT”.

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Group had in investments at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income 153,760, 83,494 and 70,253 certificates of deposit of the BCRP, respectively, which are instruments issued at discount through public auction, negotiated in the Peruvian secondary market and payable in soles.

Pursuant to the criteria described below, our management has determined that the unrealized losses of our investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, amounting to S/94.4 million, S/999.0 million and S/2,011.4 million, respectively, were temporary, and we intend to hold each investment for a sufficient period of time to allow for a potential recovery in fair value. This holding period will last until the earlier of the investment’s recovery or maturity.

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, for debt instruments measured at amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income, the management establishes a three-stage expected credit loss model, based on whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk of the financial asset since its initial recognition. These three stages determine the amount of expected credit loss (ECL) to be recognized at each reporting date.

The ECL is an estimate that considers multiple forward-looking macro-economic scenarios that result in more timely recognition of credit losses.

Management considers a number of factors to determine whether to hold an investment, including (i) a quantitative estimate of the expected recovery period (which may extend to maturity), (ii) the severity of the impairment and (iii) its strategy with respect to the security or portfolio. If management determines it is not desirable to hold the security for a sufficient period of time to allow for a potential recovery in the security’s amortized cost, we record the unrealized loss in our consolidated income statement.

“Total loans” refers to “loans, net of unearned income” as disclosed in our consolidated financial statement, which refers to direct loans minus unearned interest plus accrued interest. See Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements. In addition to loans outstanding, we had off-balance-sheet items that amounted to S/20,973.8 million, S/22,914.3 million, and S/20,928.1 million, as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022 respectively. See Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements.

The loan portfolio categories set forth in the table above are based on internal classifications, which apply to loans generated by BCP Stand-alone, SEAH, Mibanco, BCP Bolivia, Mibanco Colombia and ASB. We categorize loans as follows:

•

Loans: Basic term loans documented by promissory notes and other extensions of credit, such as mortgage loans, credit cards and other consumer loans in various forms, including trade finance loans to importers and exporters on specialized terms adapted to the needs of the international trade transaction.

•

Leasing receivables: Transactions that involve our acquisition of an asset and the financial leasing of that asset to a client.

•

Discounted notes: Loans discounted at the outset (the client signs a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness for the principal amount payable at a future date). Discounted loans also include discounting of drafts, where we make a loan supported by a draft signed by one party and discounted by another party, with recourse to both parties.

•

Factoring receivables: The sale of title of a company’s account receivables to a bank (or financial company). The receivables are sold without recourse, and the bank cannot recover from the seller in the event that the accounts are uncollectible. For factoring loans, the seller receives funds from the bank prior to the average maturity date based on the invoice amount of the receivable, less cash discounts and allowances for estimated claims and returns, among other items.

176

Table of Contents

•

Advances and overdrafts in current account: Extensions of credit to clients by way of an overdraft facility in the client’s checking account. This category also includes secured short-term advances.

•

Refinanced loans: Loans that were refinanced because the client was unable to pay at maturity. A loan is categorized as a refinanced loan when the debtor is experiencing payment problems and asks for a new payment schedule that will allow the debtor to comply with the installments. This policy is based on internal models and past experience as well as IFRS.

•

Internal overdue loans: Includes overdue loans and under legal collection loans. See “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (7) Selected statistical information – 7.3 Loan Portfolio – 7.3.9 Internal overdue Loan Portfolio” for further detail.

7.3.3 Concentrations of loan portfolio and lending limits

As of December 31, 2022, loans and other off-balance-sheet exposure to our 20 largest customers (considered as economic groups) equaled S/18,644.4 million and represented 12.54% of our total loan portfolio. See “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1 Peru” for the definition of “economic group”. Our total loans and other off-balance-sheet exposure outstanding to each of these customers ranged from S/627.3 million to S/1,758.8 million, including 11 customers with over S/801.6 million. Total loans and other off-balance-sheet exposure outstanding to our 20 largest customers were ranked in the following risk categories as of December 31, 2022: Class A (normal)—99.89%; Class B (potential problems)—0.11%; Class C (substandard)—0.00%; Class D (doubtful)—0.00% percent; and Class E (loss)—0.00%. For further information, see “– 7.3 Loan Portfolio – 7.3.7 Classification of the Loan Portfolio”.

BCP Stand-alone’s loans to a single borrower are subject to lending limits imposed by Law No. 26702. See “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1 Peru”. The lending limits depend on the nature of the borrower involved and the type of collateral received. The sum of BCP Stand-alone’s loans and deposits in either another Peruvian universal bank or Peruvian financial institution, plus any guarantees of third-party performance received by BCP Stand-alone from such institution, may not exceed 30% of BCP Stand-alone’s regulatory capital (as defined by the SBS). The sum of BCP Stand-alone’s loans and deposits in non-Peruvian financial institutions, plus any guarantees of third-party performance received by BCP Stand-alone from such institutions, are limited to 5%, 10% or 30% of BCP Stand-alone’s regulatory capital, depending upon the level of government supervision of the institution and whether the institution is recognized by the BCRP as an international bank of prime credit quality. The limits on lending to non-Peruvian financial institutions increase to 50% of BCP Stand-alone’s regulatory capital if the amount by which such loans exceed the 5%, 10% or 30% limits is backed by certain letters of credit.

BCP Stand-alone’s loans to Directors and employees and their relatives have an aggregate limit of 7% of regulatory capital and an individual limit of 5% of such global limit.

178

Table of Contents

Loans to non-Peruvian individuals or companies that are not financial institutions have a limit of 5% of BCP Stand-alone’s regulatory capital. However, this limit increases to 10% if the additional 5% is guaranteed by a mortgage or certain publicly traded securities. The limit rises to 30% if the additional amount is guaranteed by certain banks or by cash deposits in BCP Stand-alone. Lending on an unsecured basis to individuals or companies residing in Peru that are not financial institutions is limited to 10% of BCP Stand-alone’s regulatory capital. This limit rises to 15% if the additional 5% is guaranteed by a mortgage, certain securities, equipment or other collateral, and to 20% if the additional amount is either backed by certain debt instruments guaranteed by other local banks or a foreign bank determined by the BCRP to be of prime credit quality, or by other highly liquid securities at market value. The single-borrower lending limit for loans backed by a cash deposit at BCP Stand-alone or by debt obligations of the BCRP is 30% of BCP Stand-alone’s regulatory capital.

Considering the regulatory capital of BCP Stand-alone, which amounted to S/23,364.3 million on December 31, 2022, BCP Stand-alone’s legal lending limits varied from S/1,168.2 million to S/11,682.2 million. The Group’s consolidated lending limits, based on our regulatory capital on a consolidated basis of S/22,772.2 million on December 31, 2021, ranged from S/1,138.6 million to S/11,386.1 million. As of December 31, 2022, BCP Stand-alone was in compliance with the lending limits of Law No. 26702.

As of December 31, 2022, we complied with the applicable legal lending limits in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. These limits are calculated quarterly based upon our consolidated equity plus reserves for impaired loans not specifically identified at quarter-end. We have also set internal lending limits, which are more restrictive than those imposed by law. A limited number of exceptions to our internal limits have been authorized by our Board of Directors based on the credit quality of the borrower, the term of the loan, and the amount and quality of collateral provided. We may, in appropriate and limited circumstances, increase or choose to exceed these internal limits as long as our credit exposure does not exceed the legal lending limits.

We may experience an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations if (i) customers to which we have significant credit exposure are not able to satisfy their obligations to us, and any related collateral is not sufficient to cover these obligations, or (ii) a reclassification of one or more of these loans or other off-balance sheet exposure results in an increase in provisions for loan losses.

7.3.7 Classification of the loan portfolio

We classify Credicorp’s loan portfolio in accordance with internal practices. According to these criteria, all loans and other credits are classified into one of four categories based upon the purpose of the loan. These categories are:

(1)

Commercial loans, which generally finance the production and sale of goods and services, including commercial leases, as well as credit card debt on cards held by business entities.

(2)

Microbusiness loans, which are exclusively targeted for the production and sale of goods and services, are made to individuals or companies with no more than S/300,000 in total loans received from the financial system (excluding mortgage loans).

(3)

Consumer loans, which are generally granted to individuals, including credit card transactions, overdrafts on personal demand deposit accounts, leases, and financing goods or services not related to a business activity.

(4)

Residential mortgage loans, which are all the loans granted to individuals for the purchase, construction, remodeling, subdivision or improvement of the individual’s home, in each case backed by a mortgage. Mortgage loans made to Directors and employees of a company are also considered residential mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed loans are considered commercial loans.

The following table sets forth our loan portfolio by class at the dates indicated:

	As of December 31,
	2020			2021			2022
	(in thousands of Soles)
Commercial loans		79,899,769			87,006,950			81,668,900

We employ a range of policies and practices to mitigate credit risk. Our usual practice is to take security for fund advances. We implement guidelines on the acceptability of specific classes of collateral or credit risk mitigation. The principal collateral types for loans and advances are mortgages over residential properties, liens over business assets (such as premises, inventory and accounts receivable), and liens over financial instruments (such as debt securities and equities).

Long term financing and lending to corporate entities are generally secured, while revolving individual credit facilities are generally unsecured. In order to minimize credit loss, we seek additional collateral as soon as impairment indicators become apparent.

We determine the appropriate collateral to hold as security for financial assets (other than loans) according to the nature of the instrument. Debt securities, treasury and other eligible bills are generally unsecured, except for asset-backed securities and other similar instruments, which are secured by portfolios of financial instruments.

Our management monitors the market value of collateral, requests additional collateral in accordance with the underlying agreement, and monitors the market value of the additional collateral obtained during its review of the allowance for impairment losses. Our policy is to dispose of repossessed properties in an orderly manner. We use the proceeds to reduce or repay the outstanding claim. In general, we do not use repossessed properties for our own business.

We review our loan portfolio on a continuing basis and we classify our loans based upon risk by assessing the following factors: (i) the payment history of the particular loans, (ii) the history of our dealings with the borrower, (iii) the borrower’s management, (iv) the borrower’s operating history, (v) the borrower’s repayment capability, (vi) the borrower’s availability of funds, (vii) the status of collaterals or guarantees, (viii) the borrower’s financial statements, (ix) the general risk of the sector in which the borrower operates, (x) the borrower’s risk classification made by other financial institutions and (xi) other relevant factors.

182

Table of Contents

In accordance with IFRS7, we classify our loan portfolio, according to its credit risk quality, in one of the three following levels:

•

Loans neither past due nor impaired: this level comprises those direct loans which are zero days past due and which are not in default.

•

Past due but unimpaired loans: this level comprises those direct loans for which debtors have failed to make a payment on the contractually agreed due date but are not in default.

•

Impaired loans: this level comprises all the direct loans in default.

We continually review our loan portfolio to assess the completeness and accuracy of our loan classifications.

We assess financial guarantees and letters of credit in the same way we assess loans.

When a borrower is in a country where there is an increased risk of difficulty servicing external debt, we assess the political and economic conditions in that country and factor additional country risk into our assessment.

When we determine that a loan is uncollectible, it is written off against the provision for loan impairment. We write off these loans after all necessary procedures have been completed and the amount of the loss is determined. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off decrease the amount of the provision for loan impairment in our consolidated income statements.

7.3.8 Classification of the loan portfolio based on the borrower’s payment performance

We classify a loan as internal overdue according to three criteria: (i) the number of days past-due based on the contractually agreed due date; (ii) the banking subsidiary; and (iii) the type of loan. In that sense:

•

BCP Stand-alone, SEAH and Mibanco consider loans as internal overdue: (i) after 15 days for corporate, large business and medium business loans; (ii) after 30 days for small and micro business loans, and (iii) after 30 days for overdrafts. In the case of consumer, mortgage and leasing loans, the past-due installments are considered overdue after 30 to 90 days; after 90 days, the outstanding balance of the loan is considered overdue.

•

Mibanco Colombia considers loans as internal overdue: (i) after 90 days for commercial loans; (ii) after 60 days for micro business loans; (iii) after 60 days for consumer loans and (iv) after 30 days for mortgage loans.

•

ASB considers loans as internal overdue when they are 1 or more days past due.

•

BCP Bolivia considers loans as internal overdue when they have 30 or more days past due.

Furthermore, with regards to refinanced loans, Credicorp’s policy categorizes a loan as “refinanced” when a debtor is experiencing payment problems and asks for a new payment schedule that will allow the debtor to comply with the installments. This policy is based on internal models and experience as well as IFRS.

Finally, non-performing loans are composed of internal overdue, refinanced, and restructured loans. For further detail on non-performing loans, see Note 34.1(c) to the consolidated financial statements.

Therefore, non-performing loans amounted to S/8,045.8 million. As of December 31, 2022, our delinquency ratio (internal overdue-loan ratio) was 4.0% and our non-performing loan ratio (including internal overdue and refinanced and restructured loans) was 5.4%. As of December 31, 2021, our delinquency ratio was 3.8% and our non-performing loan ratio was 4.99%. See “ITEM 5.

Corresponds to the effect of fluctuation in the exchange rate for foreign currency loans. Considering that the functional currency is the Peruvian Sol, and that the main impact of foreign currency is the US Dollar; the effects presented in this account are primarily driven by changes in the Sol/US Dollar exchange rate.

For a discussion of the risk elements in the loan portfolio and the factors considered in determining the amount of specific reserves, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – 7.3.7 Classification of the Loan Portfolio” and “– 7.3.8 Classification of the loan portfolio based on the borrower’s payment performance”. The balance of the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022 are included in Note 7(c) to the consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2022, the allowance for loan losses was S/8,531.0 million which meant a decrease of 6.0% compared to S/9,071.0 million in 2021. The allowance for loan losses, as of December 31, 2022, included S/7,872.4 million for direct loans losses and S/658.6 million for indirect loan losses or off-balance-sheet exposure losses as compared to S/8,477.3 million and S/593.7 million, respectively, in 2021. The allowance for indirect loans is included in the “Other liabilities” caption of our consolidated statement of financial position. See Notes 7(c) and 13(a) to the consolidated financial statements. For the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, see “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.A Selected Financial Data.”

The write-off process is performed with prior approval of our board of Directors and the SBS. Potential write-offs are considered by the board of Directors on a case-by-case basis.

Provision for credit losses on loan portfolio, net of recoveries, increased to S/1,811.5 million in 2022 from S/1,212.2 million in 2021. The increase is primarily explained by the update of our estimates for key macroeconomic variables such as inflation, interest rates and GDP growth, as well as the negative impact that increasing inflation had on payment behavior compared to an extraordinary low provisions base in 2021, which represented an decrease from S/5,920.5 million in 2020.

7.3.12 Allocation of allowance for loan losses

The following table sets forth the amounts of our allowance for loan losses attributable to commercial, microbusiness, consumer, and residential mortgage loans at the dates indicated (see also Note 7(c) to the consolidated financial statements):

	As of December 31,
	2020		2021		2022
Allowance for loan losses for:	(in thousands of Soles)
Commercial loans		3,616,932		3,991,453		3,912,043
Microbusiness		3,144,154		2,208,049		1,970,027
Consumer loans		2,765,113		1,896,776		1,680,768

Total		10,435,623		9,071,011		8,530,986

Credicorp's total allowance for loan losses decreased by 6.0% from December 31, 2021, to December 31, 2022. This was mainly driven by: (i) the flow of write-offs made throughout the year, which mainly impacted consumer loans at BCP Stand-alone and microbusiness and consumer loans at both BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, and (ii) to a lesser extent, the decrease of the USD/PEN exchange rate. The previous effects were partially offset by the deterioration of the macroeconomic view (both observed and projected), which had a higher impact on consumer and microbusiness loans at BCP Stand-alone, and by efforts to penetrate higher yield and riskier segments mainly on microbusiness loans at BCP Stand-alone.

The main methodological calibrations made in the internal credit risk models during 2022 were:

•

PD models: according to our internal governance scheme, we continued following up the performance of PD models and implementing the necessary calibrations to maintain an appropriate measurement of our loan portfolio’s credit risk.

•

LGD models: we holistically calibrated this parameter for Consumer and SME loans in order to maintain an appropriate measurement of our loan portfolio’s estimated loss at the time of the default. This calibration included the update of recovery data, methodological assumptions and certain revisions to better reflect the collateral of mortgage-backed retail banking loans at default on the estimation of the recovery rate.

The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans outstanding decreased from 7.91% in 2020 to 6.44% in 2021, due to a decrease in the allowance for loan losses resulting from PD and LGD estimates decreasing as uncertainty related to the pandemic partially dissipated. The diminished uncertainty was partially offset by higher perceived risk to the Peruvian macroeconomic outlook due to political uncertainty. The allowance for loan losses also decreased due to an elevated level of write-offs in 2021 compared to 2019 and 2020, which was driven by defaults that had been postponed while clients were receiving government and Credicorp support and deferments to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020.

In 2022, this ratio decreased to 6.04% due to a decrease in the allowance for loan losses, which was mainly driven by: (i) the flow of write-offs made throughout the year, which mainly impacted Consumer loans at BCP Stand-alone and Microbusiness and Consumer loans at both BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco, (ii) to a lesser extent, the decrease of the exchange rate USD PEN. The previous effects were partially offset by the deterioration of the macroeconomic view (both observed and projected), which had a higher impact on Consumer and Microbusiness loans at BCP Stand-alone, and by efforts to penetrate higher yield and riskier segments mainly on Microbusiness loans at BCP Stand-alone.

(1)	The presentation of certificates of deposits that were identified as negotiable were modified from term deposits to bonds in 2021.

Our total deposits and obligations without interest payable decreased 1.9% from December 31, 2021, to December 31, 2022, which is attributable to a decrease in the level of total savings and demand deposits, mainly at BCP Stand-alone. The decrease in savings and demand deposits was driven by the amortization of Reactiva loans.

Deposits are generally insured to mitigate depositor losses in the event of financial institution bankruptcy. The insured value of any deposit will vary depending on the country where the bank is located. As of December 31, 2022, deposits in Peru are insured by the Deposit Insurance Fund up to a maximum of S/125,603 (US$32,932) per depositor; in Colombia they are insured by the “Financial Institutions Guarantee Fund” (Fogafín) up to a maximum of S/39,300 (US$10,304) per depositor; in Bolivia they are insured by the Saver Protection Fund (FPAH) up to a maximum of S/53,627 (US$14,061) per depositor; in Panama deposits are not insured. In Peru, the insurance coverage supports nominal deposits, under any modality, of natural and private non-profit legal persons, as well as demand deposits of other legal persons. Said amount includes all insured deposits that a depositor has in the same financial institution. As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022 the total insured deposits of the Group, which were estimated with the methodologies and assumptions used for regulatory requirements, totaled S/45,835.1 million, S/51,330.3 million and S/53,555.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the total uninsured deposits, without considering interest, totaled S/95,825.2 million, S/97,513.2 million and S/92,402.4 million, respectively.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

5. A Operating results

(1) Management Discussion and Analysis

a) General Economic Conditions

In 2022, the global economy experienced a broad-based slowdown weighed by the highest inflation in decades, driven by supply chain disruptions related to COVID-19, the war between Russia and Ukraine which drove commodity prices near record highs and pressures stemming from pent up demand in the services sector. China’s stringent zero COVID-19 policy and tightening financial conditions as Central Banks reacted raising rates rapidly also had a negative effect on growth. In Peru, the economy slowed down to 2.7%, as private investment fell, business confidence remained low and policy stimulus was withdrawn. However, private consumption remained strong, especially in the 1H22, driven by the release of pent-up demand, the recovery of employment and availability from savings in pension funds (AFPs) and Severance indemnity deposits.

Inflation, measured using the Consumer Price index of Metropolitan Lima (CPI), closed 2022 at 8.5% YoY, the highest in 26 years and above the upper bound of the BCRP´s target range between 1% and 3% for a second year in a row. To avoid inflation expectations de-anchoring and with the goal of returning inflation to its target range, the BCRP adopted an aggressive rate-hiking cycle, as did most developing and emerging countries. The BCRP increased its monetary policy rate from 0.25% in July 2021 to 7.50% in December 2022.

b) Credicorp 2022 Financial Performance

In 2022, Credicorp generated S/4,633.1 million of net profit attributable to its equity holders, with net basic earnings of S/58.3 per common share attributable to its equity holders, as compared with S/3,584.6 million of net profit attributable to its equity holders, with net basic earnings of S/44.9 per common share attributable to its equity holders in 2021. This translates to a return on average assets (ROAA) of 1.92% and a return on average equity (ROAE) of 16.70% in 2022, up from 1.49% and 13.94%, respectively, in 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, loans, net of unearned income, totaled S/148,626.4 million, representing an increase of 0.7% compared to S/147,597.4 million as of December 31, 2021. This growth was driven by fishing and agricultural campaigns in Wholesale Banking, an uptick in growth in consumer loans and an improvement in loan growth through the hybrid model at Mibanco and partially offset by the repayment of Reactiva Program loans. Total deposits without interest payable were S/147,020.8 million as of December 31, 2022, representing a decrease of S/2,575.8 million from S/149,596.5 million as of December 31, 2021. This drop was mainly driven by a 17.3% decline in Demand Deposits, from S/58,629.7 million as of December 31, 2021, to S/48,467.2 as of December 31, 2022. This migration into Time Deposits and away from Demand and Savings Deposits was because of the high interest rate environment. The decrease in Demand Deposits was attributable to both amortizations of Reactiva loans and a normalization in liquidity levels.

In 2022, net interest income was S/11,518.1 million, up from S/9,359.6 million in 2021, representing an increase of 23.1%. This increase was primarily driven by our disciplined pricing management strategy in an environment of increasing market rates. In addition, the shift towards higher yield assets also enabled our return on assets to surpass the impact of the rate hikes on our funding cost, which was buffered by BCP’s deposit mix, which primarily consists of low-cost deposits. In this context, NIM was 5.07% in 2022, 97bps above the figure reported in 2021, in line with higher interest rates.

The provisions for credit losses on loan portfolio, net of recoveries, totaled S/1,811.5 million for 2022, representing an increase of 49.4% from unusually low credit losses provisions of S/1,212.2 million for 2021. This change was mainly driven by the impact of higher inflation in consumer segment, growth in disbursements to higher risk segments in Pyme and inclusion maturities of specific vintages at Mibanco. Thus, the cost of risk in 2022 was 1.22% as compared to 0.82% in 2021. Additionally, the expansion registered by the non-performing loan portfolio, led to a subsequent decrease in the coverage ratio for the non-performing loan portfolio, which was 97.9% in 2022, as compared to 115.3% in 2021.

In 2022, other income totaled S/5,108.3 million, representing a 3.6% increase compared to S/4,929.7 million in 2021. This was attributable to an increase in fee income and gains on foreign exchange transactions spurred by new services in our digital channels. In this context, net gain on foreign exchange transactions carried the most significant impact, with an increase of S/161.2, million or 17.5%, compared to 2021.

Credicorp’s underwriting result was S/661.6 million in 2022, representing an increase of S/665.3 million, compared to (S/3.7) million in 2021. This increase was attributable to fewer claims in the Life business and to growth in net earned premiums in both the Life and P&C businesses due to higher sales and price adjustments following economic reactivation.

The efficiency ratio in 2022 improved by 150bps to 44.4% (as compared to 45.9% in 2021), which was due to an increase in income, primarily in net interest income.

(2) Political and Macroeconomic Environment

Although Credicorp Ltd. is incorporated in Bermuda, the Group, through BCP Stand-alone, has been present in the Peruvian financial sector for over 130 years. It is important to note that most of the operations and customers of BCP Stand-alone, Prima AFP, Mibanco, and a significant part of Credicorp Capital’s and Grupo Pacífico’s operations and customers are located in Peru. In addition, although ASHC is based outside of Peru, a substantial number of its customers are also located in Peru. Therefore, our results of operations and financial health could be affected by political and economic changes or policies in Peru.

For further details, see “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.D Risk Factors – Our geographic location exposes us to risk related to Peruvian political, social and economic conditions”.

Political Environment

Historically, Peru has experienced political instability, including domestic terrorism, military coups, and a succession of regimes that featured heavy government intervention. In 1995, when Credicorp was established, President Alberto Fujimori was re-elected, despite the administration being accused of authoritarian behavior, which included dissolving Peru’s congress in 1992 and crafting a new constitution in 1993. In 2000, Fujimori was ousted and succeeded by a transitional government led by Valentin Paniagua, who called for elections to be held in April 2001.

The presidents who have been elected since 2001 include Alejandro Toledo, from 2001 to 2006; Alan Garcia, from 2006 to 2011; Ollanta Humala from 2011 to 2016; and Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, whose term began in 2016 and was set to end in 2021. Since early 2017, Peruvian prosecutors have been investigating former and current local officials for allegedly accepting bribes from Odebrecht, a Brazilian construction company implicated in the Lava Jato investigation. In the midst of this investigation, in December 2017, Peru’s congress proposed a motion to remove the president; however, the motion failed to gain the required 87 votes for approval. In March 2018, the congress presented a second motion to remove the president. On March 21, 2018, President Kuczynski resigned amid political turmoil. His resignation was accepted on March 22, and on March 23, 2018, Martin Vizcarra, Kuczynski’s former vice-president, took office as President for a term ending on July 28, 2021.

Under President Vizcarra’s term, political turmoil continued. On December 9, 2018, a nationwide referendum was held to address the following issues: (i) re-election of members of Peru’s congress, (ii) reforms regarding financing for political parties, (iii) a reform of the judiciary system, and (iv) return to the bicameral parliamentary system. All the reforms, other than the bicameral parliament, were approved. Moreover, President Vizcarra dissolved the congress on September 30, 2019, after it delivered two votes of no-confidence to two different cabinets during the same presidential term and called for parliamentary elections on January 26, 2020. Hours after Vizcarra’s decision, the congress responded approving his suspension of presidential functions and the vice president, Mercedes Araoz, was sworn in as President. On January 15, 2020, the Constitutional Court ruled that the dissolution of Peru’s congress was constitutional. The parliamentary elections of January 2020 delivered a new congress with a plan to carry out its functions until July 2021. After a first presidential vacancy motion failed in September 2020, in November 2020, the congress presented a second presidential vacancy motion based on corruption allegations against Vizcarra in his term as a Regional Governor from 2011 to 2014. The motion succeeded, with 105 votes cast in favor. On November 10, 2020, Manuel Merino, president of Peru’s congress, assumed control of the government. This political move generated riots across the country, mainly in Lima and particularly among the young adult population. On November 15, 2020, President Merino resigned, amid extremely high political turmoil and uncertainty that had not seen in Peru in 20 years. Peru’s congress elected a new Directive Board led by Francisco Sagasti, and on November 16, 2020, Sagasti assumed the presidency for a term set to end on July 28, 2021.

In 2021, the political environment worsened after Pedro Castillo, of the far-left party Peru Libre, won the presidential elections with 50.13% of the votes on the second round against Keiko Fujimori, daughter of the ex-president Alberto Fujimori. It was the third consecutive loss for the presidential candidate Fujimori. These results brought about an important fragmentation of Peru’s congress, with 10 political parties becoming part of the congress’s composition. This fragmentation of political forces was noted by all major rating agencies. According to Fitch Ratings, severe tensions between the president and congress had produced a gridlock and hampered government effectiveness. Also, risk perception and political and regulatory uncertainty in Peru increased following continuous messages from the executive promoting greater state control of the economy, changes towards a new system of universal pension plans, the expropriation of various mining and hydrocarbon operations, and a new constituent assembly. As a result of this risky and uncertain environment, in September 2021 the credit rating agency Moody's reduced Peru's foreign-currency long-term debt credit rating to Baa1 from A3 and changed the country’s outlook level from negative to stable. In October 2021, the rating agency Standard and Poor’s kept Peru's credit rating at A- but lowered the outlook to negative from stable.

Table of Contents

Between July 2021 and December 2022, Castillo appointed 5 prime ministers and named more than 70 other governmental ministers. On December 7, 2022, Castillo announced the temporary dissolution of Peru’s congress, the execution of new elections for a congress with constituent powers, and the restructuring of the justice system only hours before a debate on his third vacancy motion. The police and armed forces rejected the attempted coup and the same day Peru’s congress voted to remove him from office due to moral incapacity. Castillo was arrested under charges of rebellion and conspiracy and is currently in jail. In turn, Vice President Dina Boluarte was sworn in as Peru’s first female president. Social unrest erupted, primarily focused in the southern regions where Castillo still has an important base and followers. Protests have been violent and at least sixty people have died during social demonstrations.

Boluarte, initially appointed a cabinet, led by former state prosecutor Pedro Angulo, whose members were widely regarded as technocratic but with limited political capacity. On December 21, 2022, Boluarte reshuffled her cabinet and promoted the country's Defense Minister, Alberto Otarola, to Prime Minister. Mr. Otarola is a lawyer from Ancash with prior public policy experience as Minister of Defense during the presidency of Ollanta Humala. Alex Contreras, an orthodox economist with more than 15 years of public policy experience, was ratified as the new head of the MEF. Further changes. Changes inside Otarola’s cabinet have occurred due to the social crisis with the resignations of the Labor, Production and Culture Ministers.

It is currently unclear if the election date will be brought forward since Peru’s congress has now twice rejected the constitutional reform bill to advance the general elections to 2023.

Macroeconomic Environment

The adoption of market-oriented macroeconomic policies since the early 1990s, and two decades of strong macroeconomic fundamental outlook for Peru’s economy along with stable credit ratings have allowed the country to grow at an average annual rate of 4.9% from 2001 to 2019, according to data from the BCRP. Between 2000 and 2013, the Peruvian economy, on average, outperformed the global economy primarily due to favorable metal prices and financial conditions. Nonetheless, since 2014, the Peruvian economy has been affected by several economic shocks such as decline in metal prices, contraction of public investment, the El Niño Phenomenon of 2017, the Lava-Jato investigations, the COVID-19 pandemic, higher inflation due to global factors, and political turmoil. As such, the average annual growth rate for the Peruvian economy from 2014 through 2019, before the global COVID-19 pandemic, stood at 3.1% and remained among the highest of the Latin American region economies. After the pandemic shock of 2020, the economy rebounded 13.6% in 2021 and grew 2.7% in 2022.

Peruvian economic policy has been based on three main pillars: trade policy, fiscal policy and monetary policy. Peru has maintained an open trade policy for more than two decades. Some examples of Peru’s open trade policy include free trade agreements with the United States in effect since 2009, with China since 2011, with the European Union since 2013, and with Chile, Colombia and Mexico in the Pacific Alliance. In addition, after the withdrawal of the United States from the TPP, the remaining Pacific Rim countries, including Peru, entered into the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for the Trans-Pacific Partnership in 2018.

Peruvian policymakers have kept a conservative and prudent approach to fiscal policy and government spending, and Peru’s fiscal policy evolved since 1999 to promote sound macroeconomic fundamentals. Peru’s debt-to-GDP ratio fell from 51.5% in 1999 to 26.6% in 2019 (pre-pandemic) as the government cut spending and privatized most state-run enterprises. Peru’s fiscal position also benefited from the accumulation of surpluses in various years in the period from 2004 to 2013, which helped Peru face the pandemic in 2020 and 2021. After the COVID-19 shock which lead the fiscal deficit to increase to 8.9% of GDP, the government has returned to its path of fiscal responsibility with the fiscal deficit falling to 2.5% of GDP in 2021 and to 1.6% of GDP in 2022. The ratio of debt to GDP has stayed around 34%, one of the lowest in emerging markets.

In1999, the government approved the Law of Responsibility and Fiscal Transparency (Law No. 27245) , which included a set of macroeconomic fiscal rules that gradually evolved in the years leading up to 2019. The main rules were as follows: (a) the fiscal deficit must not exceed 1% of GDP; (b) public debt cannot exceed 30% of GDP. In exceptional cases of financial volatility, and only if other fiscal rules are met, a temporal deviation of 4 percentage points of GDP is allowed; (c) non-financial spending by the government is limited by long-run real GDP growth of the economy (+/- 1 %). Compliance with this rule assumes mutual compliance with the two prior fiscal rules; and (d) Current spending by the government, excluding for maintenance, cannot exceed the long-run real GDP growth of the economy (-1%). Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, fiscal rules were suspended exceptionally for the years 2020 and 2021, by Legislative Decree No.1457, published on April 12, 2020. In 2021, by Urgency Decree N° 079-2021, the rules for 2022 were established: (i) a cap of 3.7% of GDP for the fiscal deficit and (ii) a limit of 38% of GDP for the public debt. In April 2022, a bill setting the fiscal rules for the following years was approved by the Peru’s president and is still pending approval from its congress. This bill includes the following as its main rules: (i) the fiscal deficit should not exceed 2.4% of GDP in 2023, 2% of GDP in 2024, 1.5% of GDP in 2025 and 1.0% of GDP starting 2026 onward; and (ii) public debt should not be higher than 38% of GDP, and in a maximum timeframe of 10 years, public debt should be below 30% of GDP.

On the topic of Peru’s monetary policy, the BCRP obtained its constitutional independence in 1992 and officially presides over a reserve banking system. Since 2007, the BCRP has had an inflation target of 2.0% (+/-1%), the lowest in Latin America, reflecting the BCRP’s commitment to price stability. The BCRP has foreign reserves that, at the end of 2022, totaled US$71.9 billion (approximately 30% of Peru’s GDP), among the highest levels worldwide. As of February 3, 2023, these foreign reserves totaled at US$74.3 billion. The BCRP also has other mechanisms to provide liquidity to Peru’s domestic financial system. In coordination with the SBS, the BCRP also sets regulations for the financial system, including pension funds. The SBS is the entity in charge of regulating all financial institutions, insurance companies and pension funds administrators.

Regarding the exchange rate, the BCRP abandoned its exchange rate peg (also known as a fixed exchange rate) in August 1990 and moved to a so-called dirty floating exchange rate regime (also known as a managed float). Since its inception, the dirty floating exchange rate regime has been subject to intervention by the central bank to smooth out exchange rate volatility. One key motivation to intervene in this manner in the FX market is Peru’s high degree of financial dollarization, although it is on a clearly decreasing path. BCRP’s current dirty floating exchange rate regime pursues a discretionary type of intervention, based on daily assessments of FX market conditions.

Macroeconomic Results

In 2020, the global economy was shocked by the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to historical economic contraction, amid the effects of quarantines implemented to mitigate contagion. Lower revenues and higher spending significantly weakened fiscal accounts, resulting in higher fiscal deficits as percentages of GDP than had been seen in decades and credit rating downgrades. In that context, in 2020, the Peruvian economy contracted 11%. As a result of higher fiscal expenditure, in December 2020, Fitch revised Peru’s sovereign credit rating outlook in long-term foreign currency from Stable to Negative while affirming its BBB+ rating. According to Fitch, Peru has a negative outlook due to a weakened government balance sheet and a deterioration of policy predictability, as congressional populist measures were adopted. Fitch’s reasoning was that the weakening of political cohesiveness and other political institutions since 2016 had undermined the government’s capacity to adopt wide-ranging fiscal, political and productivity-enhancing economic reforms.

In 2021, despite a highly fragmented political environment that resulted in weak business expectations, the Peruvian economy rebounded 13.6%, showing strong resilience helped by the reopening of the economy, an acceptable vaccination process and historically high terms of trade as commodity prices rallied (such as the average price of copper increasing 51% compared to 2020). Other factors that contributed to the rebound were: (i) the disposal of savings from pension funds accounts and (ii) expansionary monetary and fiscal policies. In the last quarter of 2021, Peru’s GDP recovered to pre-pandemic levels.

In 2022, the economy slowed down to 2.7%, as private investment fell, business confidence remained low and policy stimulus was withdrawn. However, private consumption remained strong, especially in the first half of 2022, driven by the release of pent-up demand, the recovery of employment and availability from savings in AFPs and Severance Indemnity deposits. In the second half of 2022, the rebound in consumption after the acute effects of the COVID-19 pandemic faded and was limited almost entirely to inbound tourism from abroad.

Heading into 2023, the signs of weakness in the economy were clearer. Peru’s GDP grew approximately 1.7% from the last quarter of 2021 to in the last quarter of 2022, as primary sectors recovered mainly due to the beginning of commercial operations of Quellaveco (with the mining sector growing 6.9% over the same period), while the non-primary sectors continued to slow down as private consumption dynamism lost strength (with private consumption growing only 2.3% in the last quarter of 2022 compared to the last quarter of 2021), as compared to 4.7% in the first half of 2022 from the first half of 2021.

Inflation became a universal issue, as almost every country in the world grappled with soaring prices in 2022 and Peru was no exception. As measured using the CPI, prices in Peru increased 8.5% from year-end 2021 to year-end 2022, the largest annual increase in 26 years and significantly above the upper bound of the BCRP´s target range of 1% to 3% for a second year in a row. Throughout the year, inflation in Peru was mainly driven by higher commodity prices, in both the energy and agricultural sectors (with, from year-end 2021 to year-end 2022, WTI increasing 39%, the price of wheat increasing 28% and the price of corn increasing 19%), along with prices for certain services still affected by the post-pandemic reopening. Both the energy and agricultural price increases were reflected in related categories on the CPI over the same period: (i) Food and Beverages (+42%); (ii) Restaurants and Hotels (+18%); and (iii) Transportation (+17%). In the same period, core inflation (excluding food and energy) rose to 5.6%, close to its highest in 22 years.

To avoid the anchoring of its targeted inflation expectations and in an attempt to return inflation to its target range, the BCRP adopted an aggressive hiking rate cycle, as did most developing and emerging countries. The BCRP increased its monetary policy rate from 0.25% in July 2021 to 7.50% in December 2022. On January 12, 2023, it raised its rate again by 25bps to 7.75%, a new historical high. The monetary authority, which since September 2022 had slowed its pace of interest rate hikes from 50bps to 25bps per meeting, surprised markets by deciding not to increase its rate at its February 2023 meeting. According to the BCRP, this pause does not imply the end of the hiking cycle. Hence, future rate hikes will be conditional on new information regarding inflation and its determinants, including the macroeconomic effects of recent social conflicts.

Regarding the members of the BCRP Board of Directors, in October 2021, Peru’s newly elected government and congress ratified Julio Velarde as the BCRP’s president (a position that he has held since 2006) and elected three of the six directors on the Board to join Velarde: the economists Roxana Barrantes, José Távara and Germán Alarco. Congress appointed the other three directors: Carlos Oliva (ex-Minister of Finance), Diego Macera, and Inés Marylin Choy. The Board of the BCRP is made up of 7 members: 1 president of the Board of directors and 6 directors. The executive branch appoints the chairman of the board and three directors, while the congress appoints another three directors and ratifies the BCRP’s president.

In Peru, the current account deficit for 2022 was 4.3% of GDP, compared to 2.3% of GDP for 2021. The increase in the deficit is mainly associated with the reduction of the trade surplus to US$9.6 billion from US$14.9 billion the previous year. From 2021 to 2022, exports grew 4.3% (volume +2.0% and export prices +1.8%) while imports grew 16.7% (volume +2.7% and import prices +13.7%). Additionally, terms of trade fell 10.4% in 2022, the first year of losses after two consecutive years of increases (with 2021 seeing Peru’s highest terms of trade in almost 50 years), because of lower copper export prices and higher oil import prices. In December 2022, the terms of trade stood around the levels of late 2019 and early 2020 and 12% below the all-time high reached in June 2021.

According to the BCRP, the USDPEN the end of 2022 was at 3.8125, an appreciation of 4.1% compared to the end of 2021. Compared to the currency exchange rates of the Latin-American region, the USDPEN was the one that increased the most in 2022, after the Brazilian Real (5.1%) and Mexican peso (5.0%). This was in a year where the global dollar (DXY) reached its highest in two decades as the FED enacted an aggressive rate-hiking cycle. In 2022, the USDPEN fluctuated between a minimum of 3.64 at the beginning of April and a maximum of 4.00 at the end of October. The political events of December 2022 (including the attempted coup of Pedro Castillo, the approval of his removal by Peru’s congress and the swearing in of Dina Boluarte as the new president of Peru) and January 2023 have had a limited effect on the exchange rate. However, against the appreciation pressures seen on other Latam currencies in the beginning of 2023 as external conditions improve for Emerging Markets, the sol has remained relatively stable and is down 0.2% against the dollar from the end of 2022 to March 8^th, 2023.

In this context, in 2022, the BCRP sold US$1.2 billion in the spot market, equivalent to 10% of 2021 net sales, with most of the intervention concentrated in the first half of 2022. Outstanding FX swaps remained stable at PEN 38.1 billion (PEN 37.8 billion in 2021). In 2023, through mid-February, the BCRP had intervened only once in the spot market. selling US$1 million. Finally, Peru’s net international reserves at the end of 2022 were US$71.9 billion (US$78.5 billion in 2021), approximately 31% of GDP (one of the world’s highest percentages and were US$74.4 billion as of February 8, 2023.

With respect to the fiscal accounts, Peru has made a remarkable effort to return the deficit to acceptable levels, decreasing its deficit from 8.9% of GDP in 2020 to 2.5% in 2021 and to 1.6% in 2022, among the lowest ratios in the region. The 2022 reduction can be explained, to a large extent, by an increase in tax revenues (12.7%), while current expenditures fell 0.9% due to lower expenses associated with COVID-19 and investment spending grew 19.1%. We believe solid fiscal performance within the framework of responsibility and sustainability is one of Peru’s strongest fiscal fundamentals. This strategy supports the low debt-to-GDP ratios that the Peruvian economy has exhibited over the last two years, also among the lowest ratios in the region.

However, under the social and political crisis, in December 2022, S&P changed the outlook for Peru´s long-term debt in foreign currency to negative from stable (and kept the credit rating at BBB) due to the challenging relationship between the executive and legislative branches, which has in turn limited the government’s ability to implement timely policies. S&P added that they could lower the ratings by one notch if prolonged political impasse or further adverse developments reduce the predictability of policymaking or worsen institutional stability. In October, Fitch made a similar move, changing the outlook for Peru to negative and keeping the rating at BBB. In January 2023, Moody’s followed suit and now assigns Peru a negative outlook on its Baa1 rating.

In 2021, the Public Treasury successfully issued global bonds in March and October/November, denominated in USD and Euros. In March 2021, the Public Treasury issued the following USD-denominated bonds: (i) US$1.75 billion through the reopening of the 2031 bond and (ii) US$1.25 billion in bonds maturing in 2041 and US$1 billion in bonds maturing in 2051. It also issued EUR 825 million in a 2033 bond. Between October and November 2021, the Public Treasury issued USD-denominated bonds with a reopening in 2051 for USD 750 million, and two new sustainable bond references maturing in 2034 for US$2.25 billion and in 2072 for US$1 billion; in addition, it issued a new social bond reference maturing in 2036 for EUR 1 billion. In total, the Public Treasury issued US$8 billion and EUR 1.85 billion in global bonds. The March issuance, at a competitive cost, was intended to finance the financial requirements set forth in the Public Sector Budget Law for Fiscal Year 2021, a bill passed in late 2020 by Peru’s congress in order to address the budgetary needs of the country. The October/November issuances were intended to finance the country’s fiscal needs for 2022.

In Bolivia, GDP grew around 4.0% in 2022, according to local estimates, as the economy continues to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, driven largely by sectors including transport, energy, services and construction. The rise in commodity prices, especially energy and soft commodities, exacerbated by the war between Russia and Ukraine, favored the exports of minerals, gas, and some agricultural products. Unlike most countries in the world, Bolivia did not suffer from a shock to disposable income stemming from inflationary pressures, because the government adopted a series of subsidies. However, the increase in oil prices did put additional pressure on the trade balance during the last quarter of 2022, reducing the country’s fiscal surplus compared to 2021. For its part, the international reserves continued the decrease first observed in 2015 and closed the year at US$3.8 billion, an amount equivalent to 4 months of imports. Lastly, fiscal imbalances persisted, with a deficit between 7% and 8% of GDP and public debt at approximately 80% of GDP at year-end 2022. As a result, on December 6, 2022, S&P cut Bolivia’s credit rating by one notch, to B with stable outlook, and stated in its report that political challenges in Bolivia had worsened with increasing regional tensions and divisions within the ruling coalition, with political impasse raising the risk of further erosion of external liquidity in a context of tight external market conditions.

Colombia’s GDP grew 7.5% in 2022, one of the highest growth rates in the world, related to: (i) positive terms of trade not seen in decades with average oil prices 40% higher in 2022 than 2021, (ii) the remarkable evolution of consumption as household spending remained strong due to record-high remittances and the continuous reopening of the economy and (iii) the expansionary fiscal stance maintained by the government. Regarding inflation, despite the Central Bank’s effort to contain the rise in inflation, pressures remain acute. Since 2021, the Central Bank has increased its interest rate by 1,100bps. from 1.75% to 12.75%. Despite favorable terms of trade, the Colombia’s account deficit remains one of the largest ratios among emerging countries (6.2% in 2022). Although the fiscal deficit in 2022 was better than initially expected (5.5% of GDP) there are still concerns about the elevated levels of public debt (64.1% of GDP). It is important to recall that in 2022, politics took center stage after the election of the first left-leaning President in the history, Gustavo Petro. His first months as government were marked by high uncertainty, reflected in a clear underperformance of Colombian financial assets. The exchange rate closed 2022 with a depreciation of 20.8% (end of period) and reached a historic high of USDCOP 5061 on November 7, 2022. Finally, after successfully approving a tax reform for 1.3% of GDP, attention has shifted to topics like the energy transition proposal and the announced reforms in health and pension systems.

In Chile, the economy grew 2.4% in 2022, according to preliminary estimates. The performance of the Chilean economy has been related to the positive evolution of private consumption and a higher-than-expected dynamism of investment. As such, domestic pressures fueled on the back of pension fund withdrawals and fiscal transfers played a key role in driving inflation up to 12.8% at the end of 2022, the highest in decades. Hence, the Central Bank raised its interest rate from 0.75% in July 2021 to 11.25% in October 2022 and has kept it stable during the last four meetings. On the fiscal front, Chilean the government evidenced strong discipline, with the fiscal balance showing its first surplus in almost a decade of 1.1% of GDP, explained by higher tax collection linked to lithium revenues, temporary taxes and larger dividend payments by companies. Lastly, on the political front, after the text for a new constitution was rejected in September 2022, Chile’s congress approved a new constituent process and Chileans will vote again on a new constitution in December 2023. Additionally, pension and tax reform are currently under discussion at the congressional commission level.

Panama’s economic activity grew 10.8% in 2022, gaining momentum and finally running above 2019 levels. This economic growth was largely driven by the resumption of the construction of Panama’s third metro line, recovering private investment, increased activity through the Canal de Panamá and copper production from Minera Cobre Panamá (the largest private investment project in the country’s history). Panama’s total copper exports grew from minimum levels to USD 2.9 billion in 2022. Rising living costs in Panama, especially of gasoline prices, which increased almost 80% from levels the year prior at one point in 2022, sparked the largest social protests in at least three decades in mid-2022. Other factors behind social unrest were high inequality, given Panama’s position as the third most unequal country in the region as measured by the Gini index, according to World Bank data), and a greater public perception of corruption in the political arena. As a result, in October, Moody’s changed the credit rating outlook from stable to negative (keeping the rating at Baa2) given rising fiscal pressures stemming from an increasingly rigid spending structure related to upward trends in wages, transfers and interest payments. Public debt, as a percentage of GDP, peaked in 2020 at 68% of GDP, fell to 64% in 2021 and was 62% in 2022, representing an increase of more than 20 percentage points from 2018 (when it was 40% of GDP).

(3) Critical accounting policies

3.1 Basis of presentation, use of estimates and changes in accounting policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. For further details, refer to Notes to the consolidated financial statements, “3. Significant Accounting Policies, a) Basis of presentation and use of estimates”.

203

Table of Contents

3.2 Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Credicorp and its controlled subsidiaries for all the years presented. Control is achieved when Credicorp is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. For further details refer to Notes to the consolidated financial statements, “3. Significant Accounting Policies, b) Basis of Consolidation.”

3.3 Functional, presentation and foreign currency transactions

Functional and presentation currency

Credicorp and its Subsidiaries operating in Peru consider the Peruvian Sol to be their functional and presentation currency since it reflects the nature of the economic events and relevant circumstances for most of the Group’s entities, taking into account their major transactions and/operations. These include: loans granted, financing obtained, sale of insurance premiums, interests and similar income, interest and similar expenses, as well as a significant percentage of their purchases. These transactions and/or operations are agreed to and settled in Soles.

Transactions and balances in foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions are those entered into in a currency other than the functional currency. These transactions are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at the exchange rates of their functional currencies at the transaction dates. For further detail refer to Notes to the consolidated financial statements, “3. Significant Accounting Policies, c) Functional, presentation and foreign currency transactions.”

3.4 Recognition of income and expenses from banking activities

Effective interest rate method:

Interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR) method for all financial instruments measured at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income. Interest expenses corresponding to the liabilities measured at amortized cost are also recorded using the EIR.

The EIR is the rate that discounts future cash flows that are estimated to be paid or received during the life of the instrument or a shorter period, if appropriate, to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. The EIR (and, therefore, the amortized cost of the financial asset or liability) is calculated by taking into account any discount, premium and transaction costs that are an integral part of the EIR of the financial instrument, without including the expected credit loss.

204

Table of Contents

Interest income and expenses:

The Group calculates interest income by applying the EIR to the gross carrying amount of those financial assets that are not impaired.

When a financial asset becomes impaired and, therefore, is considered in Stage 3 (as set out in Note 3(i) to the consolidated financial statements), the Group calculates interest income by applying the EIR at the carrying amount of the asset, net of its provision for credit loss. If the criteria for the recognition of the financial asset in Stage 3 are no longer met, the Group recalculates interest income in gross terms.

Interest income and expenses accrued from all financial instruments that generate interest, including those related to financial instruments carried at fair value through profit or loss, are recorded under the heading “Interest and similar income” and “interest and similar expenses” of the consolidated statement of income.

Dividends

Dividends are recorded as income when they are declared.

Commissions and fees

Commission income (which is not an integral part of the EIR) and fees are recorded as they accrue. Commissions and fees include, among other things, the commission charged for the banking service in general such as account maintenance, shipping, transfers, loan syndication fees and contingent credit fees.

Non-interest income and expenses

All non-interest income and expenses are recorded in the period in which the performance obligation is satisfied.

3.5 Insurance activities

Insurance contracts are those contracts in which the Group (the insurer) has accepted a significant insurance risk from another party (the policyholder) by agreeing to compensate the policyholder if a specified uncertain future event (the insured event) adversely affects the policyholder. These contracts also include reinsurance contracts that the Group holds.

Once a contract has been classified as an insurance contract, it remains an insurance contract for the remainder of its lifetime, even if the insurance risk reduces significantly during this period, unless all rights and obligations are extinguished or expire.

205

Table of Contents

The life insurance contracts provided by the Group include retirement, disability and survivor contracts, individual life contracts (including "Investment Link" insurance contracts), among others. The non-life insurance contracts issued by the Group mainly include the following risks: vehicle, fire and allied lines, technical lines and health.

Reinsurance

The Group cedes insurance risk in the normal course of its operations for most of its businesses. Reinsurance assets represent balances due from reinsurance companies. Reinsurance ceded is placed on both a proportional and non-proportional basis.

Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the outstanding claims reserve or settled claims and ceded premiums, associated with the ceded policies and in accordance with the related reinsurance contracts.

Reinsurance assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date of the consolidated statement of financial position or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises during the reporting year. Impairment occurs when there is objective evidence as a result of an event that occurred after initial recognition of the reinsurance asset that the Group may not receive all outstanding amounts due under the terms of the contract and the event has a reliably measurable impact on the amounts that the Group will receive from the reinsurer. The impairment loss is recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

Ceded reinsurance arrangements do not relieve the Group from its obligations to policyholders.

The Group also assumes reinsurance risk in the normal course of its business for non-life insurance contracts when applicable. Premiums and claims on assumed reinsurance are recognized as revenue or expenses in the same manner as they would be if the reinsurance were considered direct business, considering the classification of the reinsured insurance contract.

Reinsurance liabilities represent balances due to reinsurance companies. Amounts payable are estimated in a manner consistent with the related reinsurance contract.

Premiums and claims are presented as gross amounts for reinsurance ceded. Reinsurance assets or liabilities are written off when contractual rights are terminated or expire or when the contract is transferred to a third party.

Reinsurance contracts that do not transfer significant insurance risk are not material to the insurance segment.

206

Table of Contents

Insurance receivables

Insurance receivables are recognized when they are enforceable and measured on initial recognition at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Subsequent to initial recognition, insurance receivables are measured at amortized cost.

As of December 31, 2021, and 2022, the carrying amount of the insurance receivables is similar to their fair value due to their short term. The carrying value of insurance receivables is reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The impairment loss is recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

“Investment Link” assets

“Investment Link” assets represent financial instruments held for purposes of funding a group of life insurance contracts and for which investment gains and losses are allocated directly to the policyholders who bear the investment and reinvestment risk. Each account has specific characteristics and the assets are carried at fair value. The balances of each account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Group. The liabilities linked to these contracts are equal in amount to the assets that support them, net of the commissions that the Group charges for the management of these contracts.

Deferred acquisition costs (DAC)

DAC comprise the direct costs that originate with and are related to traditional life and Investment Link insurance contracts, which are deferred; all other acquisition costs are recognized as an expense when incurred. The direct acquisition costs are composed primarily of agent commissions corresponding to the underwriting and policy issuance costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, these costs are amortized on a straight line basis based on the average expiration period of the related insurance contracts. Amortization is recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

DAC for general insurance and health products are amortized over the period in which the related revenues are earned.

DAC are derecognized when the related contracts are either settled or disposed of.

An impairment review is performed at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises. When the recoverable amounts are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income. DAC is also considered in the liability adequacy test for each reporting period.

Reinsurance commissions

Commissions on reinsurance contracts for ceded premiums are amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the coverage of the related insurance contract.

3.5.1 Insurance contracts liabilities

(i) Life insurance contract liabilities:

Life insurance liabilities are recognized when contracts are entered into.

The technical reserves maintained by the Group include the reserves of all of the business lines, comprising both the mathematical reserves and those of ongoing risk, as well as the reserves for outstanding claims, settled claims, claim settlement costs, and claims incurred but not reported (IBNR), as applicable to each line.

Due to the nature of the business, the mathematical reserves of the pension lines represent the main part of the Group’s reserves, with life annuities as the major source of reserves due to the important volume of premiums and as a result of having only single premiums. In order to determine the mathematical reserves of this business, the discounted present value of the expected future pensions is calculated on the basis of mortality tables and interest rates. Those mathematical reserves are based on the market value of the assets portfolio that back the liabilities. Additionally, the constituted reserves include the amount required to cover the maintenance expenses related to the administration of the payment of future pensions.

The mathematical reserves of the income lines are determined by the sum of the value discounted from future expected pensions to be paid during a defined or undefined period, calculated on the basis of the current mortality and morbidity tables, and the market discount interest rates of the investment portfolio. During 2018, the Group adopted the new mortality tables approved and published by the SBS through SBS Resolution No.886-2018; these tables reflect recent changes in the life expectancy.

The Group also uses discount rates in measuring annuities, in order to reflect the market value in the measurement of insurance liabilities, as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Group uses the market rate for harvests of the portfolio of its financial assets for pension flows shifted by currency (market rates).

As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, adjustments to liabilities on each date of the consolidated statement of financial position are recorded in the consolidated statement of income (due to the effects of variation in the mortality table) and in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (due to the effect of the market rate); both effects included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as of December 31, 2021 and 2022. The liability is written off when the contract expires, is eliminated or cancelled.

Likewise, in the Individual Life business, the Group offers both risk-only products and risk and savings products, with the latter constituting the highest percentage of reserves in the line. Risk and savings products are differentiated between those with guaranteed interest rates and others without an interest guarantee. The reserve for risk and savings products with guaranteed interest rates is equal to the balance of the policy accounts plus uncredited excess interest, and the reserve for those with an interest guarantee is equal to the balance of the policy accounts. These accounts are constituted of the premiums collected, tax deductions, expenses and the cost of the insurance and the accreditation of interest based on the performance of the portfolio that supports said reserves.

Table of Contents

Life insurance claims include reserves for reported claims and estimates of incurred claims that have not been reported (SONR or IBNR) to the Group. As of December 31, 2022, the reserves for incurred and unreported claims were determined based on the Chain Ladder methodology (a generally accepted actuarial method), whereby the weighted average of the evolution of past claims is projected into the future.

This projection is based on historical occurrence ratios of accumulated claims. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, IBNR reserves were calculated in two parts:

a) IBNR reserve for regular claims (based on the Chain Ladder methodology) and

b) IBNR reserve for the expected excess mortality (deaths above the average number of cases in the pre-pandemic months).

For part a), the reserves were determined maintaining the expected loss ratio of the periods prior to the pandemic; and for part b), the IBNR reserves were determined based on the estimate of additional deaths to the average (excess mortality) of each portfolio and subtracting additional claims to the average already reported to the Group. The excess mortality of each portfolio is calculated taking into account the excess mortality experienced in the country by geographic location and age ranges and the representation of the portfolio of insured in those same segments. In general, claims reserves have been estimated using prudential criteria due to the uncertainty in the claims rate caused by the pandemic.

At each reporting date, an assessment is made as to whether the life insurance liabilities are adequate, net of the related DAC, through a liability adequacy test in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 4. As of December 31, 2021 and 2022, the Group's Management concluded that the liabilities are sufficient and, therefore, has not recognized any additional liability for life insurance contracts.

(ii) Non-life insurance contract liabilities (including general and health insurance).

Non-life insurance contract liabilities are recognized when the contract term begins.

Claims reserves are based on the latest estimated cost of all claims incurred but not settled as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, whether reported or unreported, together with related claim costs and value of expected drawdown, salvage and other recoveries. There may be delays in the notification of the settlement of certain types of claims, therefore, the final cost of these cannot be known with certainty at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position.

Table of Contents

Claims occurred but not reported are estimated and included in the provision (liabilities). The reserves for claims that have not been reported are determined based on the Chain Ladder methodology (a generally accepted actuarial method) that considers the statistical analysis of the experience in reporting claims of the Group, the expected costs of the claims to be reported and when appropriate, adjustments in the last estimated periods based on the frequency and/or severity of the cases to better reflect the current conditions.

During the years 2021 and 2022, the Group incorporated the following factors into its estimate of the reserve for incurred and unreported claims (IBNR) of the general insurance businesses: adjustments in the expected frequency of claims during the months of confinement, stoppages of transportation and activities in the country, and the decrease in the insured portfolio, which later recovered.

In the case of Medical Assistance (AMED), the IBNR estimate included the estimate of regular claims as well as the IBNR estimate for COVID claims, which had a different frequency and cost than regular claims.

No provision for stabilization or catastrophic reserves is recognized. The liability is written off when the contract expires, is eliminated or cancelled.

The technical reserves for non-life insurance contracts comprise the provision for unearned premiums, which represents the premiums received for risks that have not yet expired. In general, the reserve is released during the term of the contract and is recognized as premium income.

On each reporting date, the Group reviews the risks of current insurance contracts and performs a liability adequacy test, as established by IFRS 4, to determine if there is any excess of expected claims over unearned premiums. If these estimates show that the amount of unearned premiums is insufficient, the deficiency is recognized in the consolidated statement of income as a provision for liability adequacy. As of December 31, 2021, and 2022, Management concluded that the liabilities are sufficient and, therefore, has not recognized any additional liabilities from non-life insurance contracts.

Revenue Recognition:

(i) Gross premiums

Life insurance contracts

Gross life insurance premiums are recognized as income when they become due from the policyholder. For single premium businesses, revenue is recognized on the date the insurance contract is effective.

Non-life insurance contracts

Gross non-life insurance direct and accepted premiums comprise the total written premiums and are recognized on the policy issuance date as an account receivable. At the same time, a reserve for unearned premiums is recognized, which represents the premiums whose risks remain current. Unearned premiums are recognized as income in the contract period, which is also the coverage and risk period.

210

Table of Contents

(ii) Fees and commission income

The insured of the “Investment Link” insurance contracts remunerate the Group for policy administration services, investment administration services, redemptions and other fees. These fees are recognized as income in the consolidated statement of income for the period in which the services are provided.

Recognition of benefits, claims and expenses:

(i) Benefits and claims

Benefits and claims for life insurance contracts include the cost of claims that arise during the year, including internal and external costs related to handling the claims, that are directly linked to the processing and settlement of claims. Claims for death, survival and disability are recorded based on notifications received. Pension payments are recognized when they accrue.

Health and general insurance claims include all claims that occurred during the year, whether reported or not, the internal and external costs of handling such claims that are directly linked to the processing and settlement of claims, a reduction for the value salvage and other recoveries and any adjustments to claims from prior years.

(ii) Ceded premiums

Ceded premiums include the total premiums payable for the coverage of the insurance contracts and are recognized on the date that the insurance contract commences. Unearned ceded premiums are deferred over the term of the related insurance contract.

(iii) Reinsurance claims

Reinsurance claims are recognized when the related gross insurance claim is recognized in accordance with the terms of the relevant contract.

3.6 Financial Instruments: Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

As of December 31, 2021, and 2022, the Group classified financial assets in one of the categories defined by IFRS 9: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, at fair value through other comprehensive income and at amortized cost, based on:

◾

The business model for managing the financial assets and

◾

The characteristics of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset.

The business model: explains how the financial assets are managed to generate cash flows and does not depend on Management’s intention regarding to an individual instrument. Financial assets can be managed for the purpose of: (i) obtaining contractual cash flows; (ii) obtaining contractual cash flows and sale; or iii) others. In order to evaluate a business model, the Group considers the risks affecting the performance of the business model, and the manner in which the performance of the business model is evaluated and reported to Management. If the cash flows are carried out in a manner other than what is expected by the Group, the classification of the remaining financial assets in this business model is not modified.

When the financial asset is held in business models i) or ii), it requires the application of the “Solely Payments of Principal and Interest” (SPPI) test. This test evaluates the cash flows generated by a financial instrument in order to verify if the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. In order to conform to this concept, the cash flows must solely include the consideration of the time value of money and the credit risk. If the contractual terms introduce risk exposure or cash flow volatility, such as the exposure to changes in the prices of capital instruments or the prices of raw materials, the financial asset is classified at fair value through profit or loss. Hybrid contracts must be evaluated as a whole, including all the integrated characteristics. The accounting of a hybrid contract that contains an embedded derivative is carried out jointly; in other words, the entire instrument is measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The reclassification of financial assets will take place when the business model that manages the financial assets is changed. We expect this type of change to be rare. These changes are determined by approval of the Group's management as a result of external or internal changes, which must be significant for the Group's operations and demonstrable to third parties. Financial liabilities are never reclassified. When the Group changes its business model for the management of financial assets, it will reclassify all affected financial assets prospectively from the reclassification date. The Group will not restate previously recognized gains, losses or interest (including gains or losses due to impairment of value).

For further detail refer to Notes to the consolidated financial statements, “3. Significant Accounting Policies, f) Financial instruments: Initial recognition and subsequent measurement.”

3.7 De-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

3.7.1 Financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or a part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when: (i) the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or (ii) Credicorp has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a pass-through arrangement; and either Credicorp has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or Credicorp has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Group has transferred its right to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognize the transferred asset to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement.

In that case, the Group also recognizes the associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of (i) the original carrying amount of the asset, and (ii) the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

3.7.2 Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such exchange or modification is treated as a de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the original financial liability and the consideration paid is recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

3.8 Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statements of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and management has the intention to settle on a net basis or realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.

213

Table of Contents

3.9 Impairment of financial assets

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Group applies a three-stage approach to measure the provision for credit loss, using an impairment model based on the expected credit losses as established in IFRS 9, for the following categories:

•

Financial assets at amortized cost,

•

Debt instruments classified as investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, and

•

Indirect loans that are presented in off-balance accounts.

Financial assets classified or designated at fair value through profit or loss and the equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income, are not subject to an impairment evaluation.

Financial assets migrate through three stages according to the change in the credit risk from the initial recognition.

For further details, refer to Note 3(i) (Significant Accounting Policies: Impairment of financial assets) to the consolidated financial statements.

3.10 Leases

Policy applicable from January 1, 2019

As of December 31, 2021, and 2022, the Group maintains mainly leased premises, used as offices, agencies, servers, and technological platforms, which were registered in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 16 for Leases. This standard state that a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract transfers the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for a consideration.

Initial Recognition

The lease contracts are recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability as of the date the leased asset is available for use.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost including the following:

- The amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability.

- Any lease payment paid to the lessor before the start date or on the same date.

- Direct costs incurred and costs for dismantling or rehabilitation, if any.

214

Table of Contents

Lease liabilities include the present value of fixed payments and variable lease payments that are based on an index or rate. Lease payments that will be made under renewal options with reasonable certainty of being exercised are included in the measurement of the liability.

Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate could be determined easily, or the incremental interest rate by loans of the lessee, which is the interest rate that the lessee would have to pay for borrowing for a similar term, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value asset by the right-of-use in a similar economic environment with similar terms, guarantees and conditions.

In determining the term of the lease, Management considers all the facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise the extension option, or not to exercise a termination option. Likewise, the estimation of the extension or termination options will be revalued only if an event or changes in the circumstances occur within the control of the entity that affects said estimate.

Subsequent Recognition

The right-of-use asset is generally depreciated in a straight line during the shortest period of the asset's useful life and the lease term. If the Group is reasonably certain of exercising a purchase option, the right-of-use asset depreciates over the useful life of the underlying asset.

The Group has chosen to measure the asset at cost less depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, with adjustments for any new measurement of the lease liability. Depreciation is calculated in a straight line within the term of the lease.

The liability will be recorded at its amortized cost, that is, it will be increased to reflect the accrued interest. This is recognized under the section titled “Interest, returns and similar expenses” of the consolidated statement of income. The fees paid will be subtracted.

Likewise, the balance of the liability will be reviewed in the following cases:

- When there is a change in the expected amount to be paid under a residual value guarantee.

- When there is a change in future lease installments to reflect the variation in an index or interest rate.

- When there is a change in the terms of the lease.

- When there is a change in the evaluation of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

The changes will be recorded as an adjustment of the lease liability and the right of use, unless the book value of the right of use has been reduced to zero, in which case it must be recorded against the consolidated statement of income.

215

Table of Contents

Short-term leases with little significant value are recognized in a straight line as an expense in the “Administrative expenses” item of the consolidated statement of income.

The accounting treatment of lessors continues with a similar model to that of IAS 17. Thus, lessors continue to distinguish between financial and operating leases.

3.11 Business combination

Business combinations made are accounted for using the acquisition method in accordance with IFRS 3 “Business Combination”, regardless of whether they are equity instruments or other acquired assets.

The acquisition cost is the sum of the consideration paid for the acquisition measured at fair value at the acquisition date and the amount of the share in the non-controlling interest acquired. For each business combination, the Group decides whether to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquire at fair value or at the proportional share in the identifiable net assets of the acquired. Acquisition-related costs are recognized as expenses and are included as “Administrative expenses” in the consolidated statement of income.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for its own classification and denomination according to the contractual terms, economic circumstances and prevailing conditions at the date of acquisition. This includes the separation of embedded derivative contracts signed by the acquire.

Any contingency transferred by the acquirer is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. The contingency classified as an asset or liability that is a financial instrument and is within the scope of IFRS 9 “Financial instruments”, is measured at fair value with changes recognized in the consolidated statement of income or consolidated statement of comprehensive income. If the contingency is not within the scope of IFRS 9, it is measured in accordance with the applicable IFRS. A contingency that is classified as equity should not be measured again and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

The acquisition of a non-controlling interest is recorded directly in net equity, and any difference between the amount paid and the acquired net assets is recorded as an equity transaction. Accordingly, the Group recognizes no additional goodwill after the acquisition of the non-controlling interest, nor does it recognize any profit or loss from the disposal of the non-controlling interest.

If there is a contractual obligation to acquire the shares of the non-controlling interest through a put option, the Group will initially recognize a liability at fair value through profit or loss equivalent to the market value of the non-controlling interest against the account "Reserves and others” in equity. After its initial recognition, the liability is measured at fair value and changes are recorded in the income statement until the option is exercised. If the option expires without being exercised, the liability is derecognized by adjusting net equity.

216

Table of Contents

Equity attributable to the non-controlling interest is shown separately in the consolidated statement of financial position. Profit attributable to the non-controlling interest is shown separately in the consolidated statement of income and consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

If a business combination achieved in stages, the acquisition date and the value of the previous participation of the acquirer is measured again at a fair value at the date of acquisition. The gains or losses arising from such remedy are recognized in profit or loss. Likewise, in accordance with IFRS 3, from the date of acquisition of a company that isn't under common control, the acquirer has a subsequent 12-month period to be able to adjust the initial recognition of goodwill. In 2022, the Group did not carry out any business combinations.

Combinations of entities under common control

A business combination between entities, or businesses under common control is outside the scope of IFRS 3, because it corresponds to a business combination in which all the entities or businesses that are combined are controlled, ultimately, by the same part or parts, before and after the business combination. In these transactions, the Group recognizes the assets acquired under the interest unification method, whereby the assets and liabilities of the combined companies are reflected at their book values and no goodwill is recognized as a result of the combination.

3.12 Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value recognized for the acquisition of the net value of the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (CGUs) that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquire are assigned to these units.

Where goodwill has been allocated to a CGU and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill and the assets disposed of are included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed of in these circumstances is measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the CGU retained.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU (or group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

217

Table of Contents

3.13 Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date, whether there is an indicator that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of the value of the asset or the CGU less costs to sell and its value in use, and is determined for each individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.

When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, recent market transactions, if any, are considered. If this type of transaction cannot be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are verified against valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.

For non-financial assets, excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date of whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such an indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized.

The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

3.14 Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Credicorp negotiates derivative financial instruments in order to satisfy clients’ needs. Credicorp may also take positions with the expectation of profiting from favorable movements in prices, rates or indexes. Credicorp also uses derivative instruments to manage exposures to interest rates and foreign currency. In order to manage particular risks, Credicorp applies hedge accounting for transactions which meet the specified criteria. For further details about the accounting policies used for Derivative financial instruments, refer to Note 3(y) (Significant Accounting Policies: Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting) to the consolidated financial statements.

3.15 Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

- In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

- In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. Additionally, the fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk.

When available, the Group measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Group uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The chosen valuation technique incorporates all of the factors that market participants would consider in pricing a transaction.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level of input used that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

- Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

- Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

- Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period.

219

Table of Contents

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics, and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

3.16 Segment reporting

The Group reports financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments. Reportable segments are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria.

Operating segments are a component of an entity for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the entity’s CODM in making decisions about how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the same basis as it is used internally for evaluating operating segments’ performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments.

3.17 Fiduciary activities, management of funds and pension funds

The Group provides custody, trustee, investment management, and advisory services to third parties that result in the holding of assets on their behalf. These assets and income arising thereon are excluded from the consolidated financial statements, as they are not assets of the Group.

Commissions generated for these activities are included as “Commissions and fees” in the consolidated statement of income.

3.18 Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise balances of cash and non-restricted balances with central banks, overnight deposits, time deposits and amounts due from banks with original maturities of three months or less, excluding restricted balances.

Cash collateral pledged as a part of repurchase agreements are presented as “Cash collateral, reverse repurchase agreement and securities borrowings” in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Cash collateral pledged as a part of derivative financial instrument and others are presented in “Other assets” in the consolidated statement of financial position.

220

Table of Contents

3.19 Repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending and borrowing

Securities sold under repurchase agreements at a specified future date are not derecognized from the consolidated statement of financial position as the Group retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership. The cash received is recorded as an asset in “Cash and due from banks” and the corresponding obligation to return it is recognized too, including accrued interest, as a liability in “Payables from repurchase agreements and securities lending”, reflecting the transaction’s economic substance as a loan to the Group. The difference between the sale and repurchase price was treated as interest expense and accrued over the life of the agreement using the effective interest rate and was recognized in “Interest and similar expenses” in the consolidated statement of income.

As part of this transaction the Group grants assets as collateral. When the counterparty receives securities and has the right to sell or re-pledge, the Group reclassifies those securities in “Investments at fair value through other comprehensive income pledged as collateral” or “Amortized cost investments pledged as collateral”, as appropriate, in the consolidated statement of financial position. When the counterparty receives cash as collateral that will be restricted until the maturity of the contract, the Group reclassifies the cash in “Cash collateral, reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowings” in the consolidated statement of financial position, which includes accrued interest that is calculated according to the effective interest rate method.

Likewise, when the counterparty receives a loan portfolio, the Group maintains these loans in "Loan portfolio, net" in the statement of financial position, whose control is kept in off-balance sheet accounts.

On the other hand, securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements on a specified future date are not recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position. Cash granted is recorded as an outgoing asset in “Cash and due from banks” account and the corresponding right to charge it, including accrued interest, is recorded in “Cash collateral, reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing”, reflecting the transaction’s economic substance as a loan granted by the Group. The difference between the purchase and resale price is recorded in “Interest and similar income” in the consolidated statement of income and is accrued over the life of the agreement using the effective interest rate method.

If securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreement are subsequently sold to third parties, the obligation to return the securities is recorded as a short sale in the consolidated statement of financial position as “Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” and measured at fair value, with any gains or losses included in the consolidated statement of income as “Net gain on securities”.

Securities lending and borrowing transactions are usually collateralized by securities. The transfer of the securities to counterparties is only reflected in the consolidated statement of financial position if the risks and rewards of ownership are also transferred.

(4) Historical Discussion and Analysis

Credicorp monitors the results of its operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Regarding Credicorp’s LoBs, total external income from the universal banking LoB amounted to 62.8%, 61.9%, and 62.5% of Credicorp’s total external income (which corresponds to total interest and similar income, including income and expenses on commissions and net premiums earned from insurance activities) in 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively. Therefore, the following historical discussion and analysis is presented principally for the universal banking LoB, except when otherwise indicated, and is based upon information contained in our consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction therewith. The discussion in this section regarding interest rates is based on nominal interest rates.

The financial information and the discussion and analysis presented below for 2020, 2021 and 2022 reflects the financial position and results of operations of our subsidiaries. For further details, see “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.A Selected Financial Data.”

4.1 Consolidated contributions

See “Item 4.B Business Overview – (1) Credicorp” for the contribution to the consolidated net profit attributable to our equity holders by each of our principal LoBs and subsidiaries, as well as for the percentage contribution to Credicorp total assets, total revenues, net profit, and equity attributable to Credicorp’s equity holders.

4.2 Financial performance

In 2022, we recorded a net profit, after non-controlling interest, of S/4,633.1 million (compared to S/3,584.6 million in 2021 and S/346.9 million in 2020). This represented an increase of 29.3% as compared to the results in 2021. The increase was attributable to higher net income in Universal Banking, Microfinance and Insurance and Pensions, which stemmed from higher interest rates (for Universal Banking and Microfinance) and claims reductions (for Insurance and Pensions). In addition, other expenses grew due to IT expenses driven by (i) higher volume of transactions (ii) development of new capabilities, functionalities, and cybersecurity improvements and (iii) an increase in IT specialized employees in line with our strategy. Other general expenses driven by (i) an increase in the LoBs and transactional levels through payment methods, and (ii) higher prices driven by inflation. Higher variable compensation due to an (i) uptick in the commercial results of the companies. And disruptive initiatives to maintain our leadership in the long term. These investments are becoming more relevant in our total cost structure and although they are on the way to cash flow neutrality, they still exhibit efficiency ratios above 100%. In 2022, ROAE was 16.70% (compared to 13.94% in 2021 and 1.36% in 2020), and ROAA was 1.92% (compared to 1.49% in 2021 and 0.16% in 2020).

222

Table of Contents

The main factors behind Credicorp’s results were:

•

The growth in total loans was 0.7% in year-end balances and 11.3% in average-daily balances. This increase was led by fishing and agricultural campaigns in the Wholesale Banking Group and an uptick in growth in the consumer segment corresponding to economic reactivation at BCP Stand Alone. Mibanco also contributed to this increase, due to an improvement in loan growth through its hybrid model.

•

The cost of risk increased by 40bps from 2021, to 1.22% in 2022. This higher cost of risk was driven primarily by (i) the impact of inflation throughout the year in the consumer segment, (ii) growth in disbursements to higher risk segments on SME-Pyme loans and (iii) the inclusion of maturities of specific vintages within Mibanco’s risk model. See also “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.A Operating Results – (5) Financial Position – 5.1 Total Assets – Portfolio quality”.

•

Interest income, which is the most important component of income, rose 26.7% in 2022. This growth was driven mainly by the uptick in market rates in 2022, which impacted the yield on interest-earning assets. Additionally, the shift to a higher-yield asset structure, which reflected growth in structural loans, favorably impacted this result. Interest expenses rose 40.3%, driven by growth in market rates, which subsequently impacted the cost of funding. Additionally, fund migration from low-cost deposits to time deposits also contributed to higher interest expenses. In this context, Net Interest Income (NII) rose 23.1% from 2021 to 2022. At the end of 2022, Net Interest Margin (NIM) was 5.07%, which reflects growth of 97bps from to the end of 2021. Additionally, due to the increase in the cost of risk, Risk Adjusted Net Interest Margin increased at a slower pace, from 3.57% in 2021 to 4.27% in 2022 (97 bps).

•

Other core income increased by 3.6% as compared to 2021. This was driven primarily by (i) an increase in Net gain on foreign exchange transactions (17.5%) as a result of market volatility and (ii) an increase in fee income (4.2%) driven by growth in transactions, ongoing migration to digital channels and points of sale (POS); and an uptick in disbursements of personal loans.

Total insurance underwriting results (net earned premiums, less claims and acquisition cost) moved into positive territory as a result of higher net earned premiums in both the Life and P&C businesses, a significant decrease in net claims in the Life Business, which reflected a drop in COVID-19 claims, and lower acquisition costs, corresponding to a reduction in commissions.

•	Operating Expenses increased 11.4%, mainly due to (i) expenses related to digital transformation and disruptive initiatives; and (ii) an increase in variable compensation in line with growth in net income.

•	The efficiency ratio decreased by 129bps, to 43.7%, primarily due to an expansion in net interest income.

Table of Contents

The net profit attributable to our equity holders for 2022 reflected an increase of 29.3% compared to 2021. This result was primarily due to higher net interest, similar income and expenses (increase of 23.1% compared to 2021), which is mainly due to the increase in financial income as a result of rising interest rates, which grew significantly in 2022, both in soles and in dollars, compared to historically low rates in 2021. Likewise, this growth is partially offset by the increase in financial expenses that is affected by the same increase in market rates; and a 38.5% increase in our provision for credit losses on loan portfolio, as compared to 2021. This decrease was mainly due to the flow of write-offs carried out during 2022, which mainly impacted the BCP consumer segment and the small and microenterprise segment in both BCP and Mibanco Perú. This decrease was also due, although to a lesser extent, to the decrease in the US$/Sol exchange rate.

The net profit attributable to our equity holders for 2021 reflected an increase of 933.3%, as compared to 2020. This result was primarily due to (i) a 74.4% decrease in our provision for credit losses on loan portfolio, as compared to 2020, stemming reduction in the probability of default of our clients driven by the economy reactivation, (ii) higher net interest, similar income and expenses (increase of 9.2%, as compared to 2020) as government loans began to be replaced by structural loans, and (iii) higher total non-interest income as a result of an increase in fee income (attributable to higher transaction rates and new services in our digital channels), as well as an increase in net gain on foreign exchange transactions.

Net interest income grew by 23.1%, from 2021 to 2022, mainly due to our disciplined repricing strategy in an environment of rising rates. Furthermore, the shift towards a higher-yield asset structure, combined with a competitive funding structure also contributed to this result. In 2021, net interest income grew by 9.2%, as compared to 2020, due to the increase in interest income and the reduction in interest expenses.

Interest and similar income grew by 26.7% in 2022, as compared to 2021, after growing 2.6% in 2021, as compared to 2020. The increase in 2022 was mainly due to the higher interest rate environment and the increase in our structural loans.

The average balance of our foreign currency denominated loan portfolio increased by 4.9% to S/50.1 billion in 2022, as compared to S/47.8 billion in 2021, which was an 4.1% increase compared to S/45.9 billion in 2020. The average balance of the Sol-denominated loan portfolio increased by 3.7% to S/98.2 billion in 2022, compared to S/94.8 billion in 2021, which was a 12.7% increase from S/84.0 billion in 2020.

The average nominal interest rates earned on loans decreased from 7.7% in 2020 to 7.1% in 2021 and increase to 8.4% in 2022. The average nominal interest rate for foreign currency-denominated loans decreased from 5.1% in 2020 to 5.0% in 2021 and increased to 5.3% in 2022. Average nominal interest rates for Sol-denominated loans decreased from 9.2% in 2020 to 8.2% in 2021 and increased to 9.9% in 2022.

Interest and similar expenses increased by 40.2% in 2022 compared to the level registered in 2021. In 2021, interest expense registered a reduction of 16.4% compared to 2020. The 2022 increase in interest expenses was attributable to a higher cost of funds due to higher market rates and fund migrations from low-cost deposits to time deposits.

Average interest-bearing foreign currency denominated deposits increased in 2022 by 1.4% to S/76,206.2 million from S/75,161.3 million in 2021. This followed a 23.1% increase in 2021 from S/61,074.2 million in 2020. Our average interest-bearing Sol-denominated deposits decreased by 3.0% in 2022 to S/72,529.5 million from S/74,767.6 million in 2021 and increased by 9.4% in 2021from S/68,328.8 million in 2020.

Table of Contents

Average nominal interest rates paid on foreign currency-denominated deposits was 0.9%, 0.7%, and 0.9% in 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively. Average nominal interest paid on Sol-denominated deposits increased from 1.2% in 2020 to 0.8% in 2021 and increased to 1.7% in 2022. NIM (net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets) was 5.07% in 2022, 4.10% in 2021 and 4.30% in 2020. For more detail, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (7) Selected Statistical Information”.

4.3.2 Provisions for loan losses

The following tables set forth the changes in our allowance for loan losses:

	Year ended December 31,
	2020			2021			2022
	(in thousands of Soles)
Provision for credit losses on loan portfolio		(6,080,289	)		(1,558,951	)		(2,158,555	)
Recoveries of written-off loans		159,781			346,728			347,017
Provision for credit losses on loan portfolio, net of recoveries		(5,920,508	)		(1,212,223	)		(1,811,538	)

Provisions for credit losses on loan portfolios, net of recoveries, increased by 49.4% in 2022 to S/1,811.5 million as compared to S/1,212.2 million in 2021 and to S/5,920.5 million in 2020. The expansion reflects higher provisions established across Credicorp’s banking businesses, particularly for BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco. The increase, over unusually low levels of provisions for credit losses in 2021, was primarily driven by:

•

Retail Banking: particularly in the Consumer and SME-Pyme segments, mainly due to (i) the negative impact of growth in actual inflation on payment behavior and (ii) an uptick in disbursements to segments characterized by a higher risk profile on one hand and higher margins on the other.

•

Mibanco: mainly driven by (i) unusually low provisions in 2021, resulting from disbursements that were more heavily concentrated among clients with better risk profiles and higher collections in a post-pandemic environment; and (ii) the incorporation of maturities of a set number of specific vintages in the risk model for 2022. Since May 2022, Mibanco has reviewed its credit risk appetite and migrated to lower risk segments.

Total recoveries of written-off loans reached S/347.0 million in 2022, as compared to S/346.7 million in 2021.

4.3.3 Other Income

The following table reflects the components of our other income:

	Year ended December 31,
	2020			2021			2022
	(in thousands of Soles)
Commissions and fees		2,912,778			3,493,734			3,640,319
Net gain on foreign exchange transactions		638,238			922,917			1,084,151
Net gains on securities		523,082			28,650			5,468
Net gains on derivatives held for trading		(13,401	)		221,064			65,187

Other		289,037			266,567			329,382
Total other income		4,408,273			4,929,717			5,108,349

227

Table of Contents

Other income, excluding net premiums earned, increased by 3.6% to S/5,108.3 million in 2022, compared to S/4,929.7 million in 2021, which in turn represented an increase of 11.9% from S/ 4,408.3 million in 2020. The expansion of other income in 2022 was primarily driven by higher commissions and fees, as well as increased net gain on foreign exchange transactions.

Commissions and fees increased by 4.2% to S/3,640.3 million in 2022 as compared to S/3,493.7 million in 2021, which in turn represented an increase of 19.9% from S/ 2,912.8 million in 2020. The expansion in commissions and fees from 2021 to 2022 was primarily due to higher transaction rates in line with economic reactivation and new services released in our digital channels.

Net gains on foreign exchange transactions increased by 17.5% to S/1,084.1 million in 2022 as compared to S/922.9 million in 2021, which in turn represented an increase of 44.6% from S/ 638.2 million in 2020. Expansion in net gains was a result of higher transaction rates in a context of market volatility.

4.3.4 Insurance Premiums and Claims on Insurance Activities

Other Expenses

The following table reflects the components of our expenses:

	Year ended December 31,
	2020			2021			2022
	(in thousands of Soles)
Salaries and employee benefits		(3,312,954	)		(3,668,476	)		(4,052,780	)
Administrative expenses		(2,383,718	)		(2,953,717	)		(3,505,101	)
Depreciation and amortization		(497,910	)		(521,967	)		(532,169	)
Impairment loss on goodwill		(63,978	)		-			-
Depreciation for right-of-use assets		(172,005	)		(161,287	)		(151,335	)
Others		(760,124	)		(435,114	)		(379,230	)
Total other expenses		(7,190,689	)		(7,740,561	)		(8,620,615	)

Salaries and employee benefits increased by 10.5% to S/4,052.7 million in 2022 as compared to S/3,668.4 million in 2021, which in turn represented an increase of 10.7% from S/ 3,313.0 million in 2020. The increase from 2021 to 2022 was mainly due to an increase in variable compensation in line with higher net income and to increased hiring of personnel specializing in disruptive projects and IT.

Administrative, general and tax expenses increased by 18.7% to S/3,505.1 million in 2022 as compared to S/2,953.7 million in 2021, which in turn represented an increase of 23.8% from S/ 2,383.7 million in 2020. The increase from 2021 to 2022 was attributable to higher investments and expenses related to digital transformation, software improvements, expenses for transactions and fidelity programs, and disruptive initiatives.

4.3.6

Exchange difference

The exchange difference reflects exposure to appreciation of net monetary positions in foreign currencies, principally US Dollars, in 2020, 2021 and 2022, to Peruvian Soles. We recorded a net gain from exchange difference of S/58.5 million, net loss from exchange difference of S/3.2 million and S/16.2 million, in 2020, 2021 and 2022 respectively.

Credicorp manages foreign exchange risk by monitoring and controlling the position values due to changes in exchange rates. We measure our performance in Soles (since 2014, when we changed our functional currency from US Dollars) such that if the net foreign exchange position (mainly US Dollar) is an asset, any depreciation of Soles with respect to the relevant foreign currency would positively affect Credicorp’s consolidated statements of financial position. The current position in a foreign currency comprises exchange rate-linked assets and liabilities in that currency. An institution’s open position in individual currencies comprises assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items denominated in the respective foreign currency for which the institution itself bears the risk; any appreciation/depreciation of the foreign exchange would affect the consolidated statements of income.

229

Table of Contents

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, Credicorp’s net foreign exchange balance is the sum of its positive open non-Soles positions (net long position) less the sum of its negative open non-Soles positions (net short position). For further details, see “ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT – (13) Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk".

4.3.7

Income Taxes

We are not subject to income taxes, taxes on capital gains, capital transfers or equity or estate duty under Bermuda law. However, some of our subsidiaries are subject to income tax and taxes on dividends paid to us, depending on the legislation of the jurisdictions in which they generate income.

Peru

Our Peruvian subsidiaries, including BCP Stand-alone, are subject to corporate taxation on income under Peruvian Tax Law. At December 31, 2021, and 2022, the Peruvian statutory income tax rate was 29.5% on taxable profit after calculating the workers’ profit sharing, which is determined using a 5.0% rate.

An additional 5.0% withholding tax is applied to dividends, which we register as income tax based on the liquid amount received from BCP Stand-alone, Grupo Credito S.A. and Pacífico Seguros. Through Legislative Decree No. 1261, published on December 11, 2016, the withholding tax on dividends for the profits generated was increased according to the following terms:

Rate for the profits generated in the years	%
Until 2014	4.1
2015 and 2016	6.8
From 2017 onward	5.0

Peruvian tax legislation is applicable to legal entities established in Peru, and on an individual (not consolidated) basis. Our non-Peruvian subsidiaries are not subject to taxation in Peru and their assets are not included in the calculation of the Peruvian extraordinary tax on net assets.

The SUNAT has the right to review and, if necessary, amend the annual income tax returns filed by Peruvian subsidiaries up to four years after their filing date. Income tax returns of the major subsidiaries open for examination by the tax authorities are as follows:

-	Banco de Crédito del Perú S.A.	2016 to 2021
-	Mibanco, Banco de la Microempresa S.A.	2017 to 2021
-	Pacífico Compañía de Seguros y Reaseguros S.A.	2018 to 2021
-	Credicorp Capital Servicios Financieros S.A.	2018 to 2021
-	Credicorp Capital Perú S.A.A.	2018 to 2021
-	Credicorp Capital Holding Perú S.A.A.	2018 to 2021

230

Table of Contents

The SUNAT is currently auditing the 2018 income tax return of Banco de Crédito del Perú. No material issues have been raised in connection with this audit.

Bolivia

The income tax rate in Bolivia is 25.0% as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. Financial entities have an additional rate if the ROE exceeds 6.0%; in that case, they must consider an additional 25.0%, with which the rate would be 50.0%. Situation that as of the 2022 administration, was also established for brokerage firms, investment fund management companies and insurance entities.

Chile

With the change in Chile's tax legislation in 2020, two new regimes, which are currently in force, were established: the general regime and the Pro SME regime, for smaller companies. Credicorp Capital Holding Chile, like all its subsidiaries, is taxed under the general tax regime, whose first category income tax rate for domiciled legal entities remains at 27.0% as of December 31, 2022.

On the other hand, natural or legal persons not domiciled in Chile will be subject to a tax called "Additional income tax" whose rates range between 4.0% and 35.0%, depending on the nature of the rent. Additionally, Chile has signed agreements to avoid double taxation with different countries, so that certain income could be released from withholding taxes or for the use of reduced rates.

Colombia

In the case of Colombia, according to Law No.2155 of 2021 issued on September 14, 2021, the income tax rate for the year 2022 is 35.0 percent of taxable income. Financial institutions must pay an additional 3.0 percent over the general tax rate; therefore, they will pay 38.0 percent from 2022 to 2024.

Additionally, the additional rate will be applicable only to Colombian financial institutions that in the corresponding tax year have a taxable income equal to or greater than 120,000 Tax Value Unit (UVT), which as of December 31, 2022 is equivalent to a total of S/3.6 million and S/4.7 million as of December 31, 2021. In this sense, Credicorp Capital Colombia, Credicorp Capital Fiduciaria and Mibanco Colombia must pay income tax taking into consideration the above.

In the event that the company receives occasional profits, quoted and established by the National Government in the Tax Statute and that are not subject to income tax, the company must apply a differential rate of 10.0 percent on associated net profit and expense, respectively.

231

Table of Contents

The Colombian Tax Reform Law No.2155 of 2021 repeals paragraph 1 of article 115 of the Tax Statute, which would allow from the year 2022 to take 100.0 percent of the industry and commerce tax as a discount for income tax, notices and boards. Therefore, only 50.0 percent of the industry and commerce tax, notices and boards can be taken as a tax discount.

In addition to the Tax Reform Law No.2155 of 2021, the possibility of reducing the time available for inspection of the income tax return and complementary for the taxable periods 2022 and 2023 is established as follows:

Increase in net income tax compared to the previous year	Firmness of the declaration
35%	6 months
25%	12 months

The Bolivian, Chilean and Colombian tax authorities have the power to review and, if applicable, make a new determination for the income tax the subsidiaries to Credicorp located in said countries, upon presentation of their Income Tax declarations. Additionally, in the case of Colombia, a period of 6 years was established for the taxpayers obliged to apply Transfer Prices or taxpayers who report tax losses. The annual income tax declarations pending examination by the overseas tax authorities are the following:

Banco de Crédito de Bolivia S.A.

2014 to 2021

Mibanco Colombia S.A.S.

2019 to 2021

Credicorp Capital Colombia S.A.

2016 to 2021

Credicorp Capital Holding Chile S.A.

2020 to 2021

Since tax regulations are subject to interpretation by the different tax authorities where Credicorp subsidiaries are located, it is not possible to determine at the present date whether any significant additional liabilities may arise from any eventual tax examinations of the Credicorp subsidiaries. Any resulting unpaid taxes, tax penalties or interest that may arise will be recognized as expenses in the year in which they are determined. However, Management of Credicorp and its Subsidiaries and their legal counsel consider that any additional tax assessments would not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

Loan evolution

The increase of 0.7% of Credicorp’s total loans from 2021 to 2022 was a result of agricultural campaigns in the Wholesale Banking Group and an uptick in growth in the consumer segment corresponding to economic reactivation at BCP Stand Alone. Mibanco also contributed to this increase, due to an improvement in loan growth through its hybrid model.

In 2022, growth in loans was primarily attributable to the increase in the loan portfolio of BCP Stand-alone, whose loan book grew by 4.1% in average daily balances in line with the following dynamics:

•

Wholesale Banking, which includes the Middle Market and Corporate Banking segments, was the largest contributor to total growth, led by the Corporate segment (an increase of S/3,147.8 million, or 10.4% in average daily balances), which increase was driven by its active participation in fishing and agricultural campaigns during the year. Average daily balances in Middle Market Banking grew S/312.8 million, or 1.3%, from 2021 to 2022.

•

Average daily balances in Retail Banking grew S/1,322.6 million, or 2.1%, from 2021 to 2022. This growth was driven by growth in the following sectors: Consumer (which increased S/1,918.0 million or 19.0%), Mortgages (which increased S/1,444.23 million or 8.0%) and Credit Cards (which increased S/712.1 million or 18.4%). Average daily balances in the SME-Business and SME-Pyme segments dropped 16.6% and 4.7%, respectively, after grace periods for Reactiva loans expired and clients started making payments on these government-backed loans.

Growth in the total portfolio was also due to the increase in Mibanco’s loan balances of 7.5% in average daily balances compared to 2021, which increase was primarily associated with growth in loan disbursements through alternative channels such as mobile banking, call center, home banking, among others as the Mibanco hybrid model begins to migrate customers to these channels.

BCP Bolivia’s loan portfolio decreased S/138.7 million, or 1.5%, from 2021 to 2022, mainly because of the volatility of the exchange rate for the Bolivianos against the Soles.

Lastly, ASB Bank Corp. loans continued losing participation and registered a decline of S/282.4 million, or 12.1%, from 2021 to 2022. It is important to note that ASB Bank Corp.’s main business is in the asset and wealth management industry.

Portfolio quality

In terms of portfolio quality, our internal overdue ratio (which includes loans under legal collection) was 4.00% at the end of 2022, 24bps higher than the 3.76% ratio recorded at the end of 2021 (3.40% at the end of 2020). The reported increase over the last year reflects the higher pace of growth in internal overdue loans balances compared to the growth of the total portfolio, as the Government Program Portfolio (which includes Reactiva Peru and FAE loans) grace periods expired. The non-performing loan ratio increased by 43bps from 4.98% in 2021 to 5.41% in 2022. This was mainly due to growth of overdue and refinanced loans, which was primarily attributable to a deterioration in client debt service capacities after grace periods expired and new facilities were offered to clients. As of December 31, 2022, the Government Program (GP) Portfolio represented 6% of Credicorp’s total portfolio (in comparison to 13% as of December 31, 2021). It is important to highlight that a large part of the GP Portfolio is backed by state guarantees, whose recovery processes for loans over 90 days past due are currently underway with the relevant regulatory entities.

The non-performing loan ratio for Credicorp’s structural portfolio, which excludes the GP Portfolio, increased by 9bps from 4.86% in 2021 to 4.95% in 2022.

An analysis of the structural non-performing loan ratio by business segment shows that:

•

Wholesale Banking: The structural non-performing loan ratio increased 56bps due to specific clients who refinanced loans in 2022 (2.73% for the structural non-performing loan ratio in 2022 and 2.17% in 2021). As of December 2022, the non-performing loan portfolio was mainly composed of refinanced loans for specific clients from the real estate and tourism sectors, which were highly affected by the pandemic. The resulting non-performing loan ratio for this segment was partially offset by an increase in loan volumes.

•

SME-Business: The delinquency ratio increased by 120 bps in 2022 (from 11.35% and 10.15% in 2022 and 2021, respectively). This was primarily due to a reduction in loan volumes during 2022.

•

SME-Pyme: An improvement of 60 basis points was registered, situating its non-performing loan ratio at 15.12% versus 15.72% in 2021. This improvement was driven by an increase in loan volumes despite and due to non-performing loan balances being affected by higher write-offs.

•

Mortgage: In 2022, the ratio stood at 3.45% versus 3.56% in 2021. The improvement in the Mortgage segment non-performing loan ratio was driven by a constant growth of loan volumes during the year.

•

Consumer: The delinquency level in the Consumer sector registered a decline from 7.24% in 2021 to 4.78% in 2022. This was primarily driven by a contraction in the overdue loan portfolio as write-offs were registered during the second half of the year.

•

Credit Card: The segment registered a slight increase of 6 bps in its delinquency ratio, which stood at 3.36% in 2022, versus 3.30% in 2021. This is the result of entry into new customer markets with higher margins and greater associated risk.

•

Mibanco: Mibanco showed a decrease in the delinquent portfolio balances, in line with the increase in write-offs. The non-performing loan ratio reduced by 206bps, from 7.02% in 2021 to 4.96% in 2022.

236

Table of Contents

•

BCP Bolivia: The non-performing loan ratio increased by 146bps, from 1.31% in 2021 to 2.77% in 2022, due to loan volume contraction.

It is important to keep in mind that traditional delinquency ratios such as internal overdue loan and non-performing loan 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) without initiating a judicial process to liquidate the collateral, which may take several years to conclude.

The Structural Coverage ratio of non-performing loans decreased from 132.0% in 2021 to 112.2% at the end of 2022. This decrease was mainly driven by an increase in the Wholesale Banking non-performing loans portfolio due to the refinancing of long-term debt of specific clients in the real estate and tourism sectors. The increase in refinanced loans in Wholesale Banking has led to this segment’s share of the total non-performing loans portfolio increasing from 14% in 2019 to 22% at the end of 2022. It should be noted that the allowance for loan losses at Wholesale Banking has not grown at the same pace as these refinanced loans because we have liquid guarantees. Therefore, despite the increase in non-performing loans in Wholesale Banking, the provisions for credit losses in this segment have not grown as quickly as non-performing loans.

(1)	Includes banker’s acceptances outstanding, accounts payable to reinsurers, lease liabilities, financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, technical reserves for insurance claims and premiums, deferred tax liabilities, net, and other liabilities.

As of December 31, 2022, we had total liabilities of S/207.1 billion, a 4.9% decrease from S/217.8 billion as of December 31, 2021, which was a 2.7% increase as compared to S/212.0 billion in 2020.

As of December 31, 2022, we had total deposits of S/147.0 billion, a 1.7% decrease from S/149.6 billion on December 31, 2021, which was a 5.1% increase compared to S/142.4 billion in 2020. The decrease in 2022 was primarily due to (i) a decrease in demand deposits that was specifically driven by companies, which moved to amortize Reactiva loans to cover seasonal and other liquidity requirements; and (ii) a decrease in savings deposits, which was attributable to a decrease in captures of savings in local currency. This decrease in demand and savings deposits was partially offset by an increase in time deposits, which was mainly associated with fund migration from low-cost deposits to time deposits in a context of higher interest rates for both local currency and foreign currency.

237

Table of Contents

According to the SBS, as of December 31, 2022, Credicorp accounted for 42.0% of total savings deposits, 43.3% of total demand deposits, 32.5% of total time deposits, and 40.3% of total deposits in the Peruvian banking system, the highest of any Peruvian bank in all these types of deposits. In addition, as of December 31, 2022, we were in possession of 48.0% of the entire Peruvian banking system’s severance indemnity deposits. We have traditionally attracted a high percentage of the savings, demand, and time deposits market because of our reputation as a sound institution, our extensive branch network, and the quality of our service.

As of December 31, 2022, our total due to banks and correspondents was S/8.9 billion, representing a 23.9% increase from S/7.2 billion as of December 31, 2021, which in turn represented a 20.7% increase from S/6.0 billion as of December 31, 2020.

As of December 31, 2022, our total bonds and notes issued were S/17.0 billion, a 4.6% decrease from S/17.8 billion as of December 31, 2021, which was a 9.3% increase as compared to S/16.3 billion in 2020. The decrease in 2022 was attributable to bonds issued in BCP Stand-alone that matured during the year.

As of December 31, 2022, our payables from repurchase agreements and security lending were S/13.0 billion, a 41.1% decrease from S/22.0 billion as of December 31, 2021, which was a 21.1% decrease compared to S/27.9 billion in 2020. During 2022, BCRP instruments witnessed a significant decrease, primarily in BCP Stand-alone and to a lesser extent in Mibanco, driven by the progressive amortization of Reactiva loans disbursements offered by the Peruvian government.

5.2.1 Funding Structure

At the end of 2022, Credicorp’s total funding was S/185.2 billion, which represents a 5.3% decrease as compared to S/195.6 billion at the end of 2021 (and S/191.5 billion at the end of 2020).

Credicorp’s funding structure shows a decrease in total deposits throughout 2022, despite an increase of time deposits driven by higher interest rates. At the end of 2022, deposits registered a funding share of 79.4%, as compared to 76.9% at the end of 2021 (and 74.4% at the end of 2020).

The decrease in deposits was mainly associated with a decrease in both demand deposits and savings deposits, which decreased by 17.3% and 3.8%, respectively, as compared to 2021. The shares of savings deposits and non-interest-bearing demand deposits decreased within the deposits mix (66.7% at the end of 2022, as compared to 72.7% in 2021 and 68.6% in 2020). Both types of deposits are considered low-cost alternatives within the deposits mix.

Table of Contents

With respect to other funding sources, our analysis shows a decrease in 2022 in the volume of BCRP instruments, which represented 6.1% of total funding as of December 31, 2022 (compared to 10.1% of total funding on December 31, 2021). This decrease was a result of the amortization of Reactiva Program funding instruments. It is important to mention that these funding sources were administrated at low rates.

As of December 31, 2022, we had total equity of S/29.6 billion, which represented a 9.4% increase from S/27.0 billion as of December 31, 2021, which was an 6.3% increase compared to S/25.4 billion as of December 31, 2020.

During 2020, 2021 and 2022, we had 94,382,317 issued shares each at US$5.00 par value.

As provided in Note 18 to our consolidated financial statements, on December 31, 2022, 14,849,223 of our issued shares were treasury stock. The term "treasury stock," as used in this Annual Report and our consolidated financial statements, follows the IFRS definition of treasury stock, which includes (i) shares acquired and held by subsidiaries and members of the consolidated group and (ii) shares sold, issued or cancelled in connection with employee share option plans, employee share purchase plans and all other share-based payments arrangements. The term “treasury stock” is not related to the term "treasury shares" as used under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, which defines “treasury shares” (in Section 42B of such Act) as shares that (i) were (or are treated as having been) acquired directly by the company that issued the shares and have not been cancelled and (ii) have been continuously held by the company since they were acquired. Credicorp is not allowed to hold "treasury shares" as such term is used under Bermuda Law. Under Bermuda law, a company cannot (i) exercise any rights with respect to treasury shares, including any right to attend and vote at meetings or (ii) pay dividends with respect to treasury shares.

5.4 Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We record various contractual obligations as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. We do not recognize other contractual arrangements, such as off-balance-sheet exposures, as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. These other contractual arrangements are required to be registered in off-balance-sheet accounts. We enter into these off-balance-sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business to provide support to our clients and to hedge risks in our statement of financial position, including through use of guarantees, letters of credit, derivatives and swaps.

(*) Lines of credit include consumer loans and other consumer loan facilities (credit card receivables) granted to customers and are cancelable upon related notice to the customer.

In the normal course of business, our banking subsidiaries are parties to transactions with off-balance-sheet risk. These transactions expose them to additional credit risks relative to amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Credit risk for off-balance sheet financial instruments is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss as a result of any other party to a financial instrument failing to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. The exposures to losses are represented by the contractual amount specified in the related contracts. We apply the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments (see Note 21(a) of the consolidated financial statements), including the requirement to obtain collateral when necessary. The type and amount of collateral held varies, but may include deposits in financial institutions, securities or other assets. Many contingent transactions are expected to expire without any performance being required. Therefore, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Credicorp has currency-forwards derivatives. Currency-forwards are commitments to buy or sell currency at a future date at a contracted price. Risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty to the transaction will not perform as agreed and from the changes in the prices of the underlying currencies. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the nominal amounts for forward currency purchase and sale agreements, which in general have maturities of less than one year, were approximately S/34,224.9 million and S/28,618.4 million, respectively.

241

Table of Contents

These agreements are entered into to satisfy client requirements and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at their fair value. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the forward contracts’ net position was US Dollars of approximately S/2,796.2 million and S/539.9 million, respectively.

Credicorp’s swap contracts include interest rate and currency swap contracts, as well as cross-currency swap contracts. Interest rate and currency swap contracts are derivatives contracts, where counterparties exchange variable interest rates for fixed interest rates or different currencies, respectively, in the terms and conditions established at the contract’s inception. The risk arises each time the projected level of the variable rate during the term of the contract is higher than the swap rate, as well as from non-compliance with contractual terms by one of the parties. As of December 31, 2022, the notional amount of open interest rate and currency swap contracts was approximately S/27,761.0 million, compared to approximately S/43,569.4 million as of December 31, 2021, see Note 13(c) to the consolidated financial statements.

Cross-currency swap contracts involve the exchange of interest payments based on two different currency principal balances and referenced interest rates. They generally also include the exchange of principal amounts at the start and end of the contract. As of December 31, 2022, the notional amount of cross-currency swap contracts was approximately S/1,421.3 million compared to approximately S/806.3 million as of December 31, 2021; see Note 13(c) to the consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2022, the fair values of the asset and liability forward-exchange contracts, options, futures and interest rate and cross-currency swaps amounted to approximately S/1,478.7 million and S/1,345.7 million, respectively (compared to approximately S/1,661.6 million and S/1,524.8 million as of December 31, 2021) and are included under the “Other assets and other liabilities” section of the consolidated statements of financial position, respectively, see Note 13(c) to the consolidated financial statements.

(6) Lines of Business (LoBs)

6.1 Universal Banking

6.1.1 BCP Stand-alone

Asset Structure

At the end of 2022, BCP Stand-alone’s total assets amounted to S/180.6 billion, which represents a 3.4% increase compared to S/187.6 billion in 2021 (and S/182.9 billion in 2020). The decrease in total assets in 2022 was mainly explained by a decrease in cash and due from banks that we believe was driven by clients using funds to repay government backed-loans. This reduction was partially offset by the growth of the loan portfolio, which grew by 0.8% in 2022 to S/123.7 billion, compared to S/122.8 billion in 2021 (and S/113.5 billion in 2020).

242

Table of Contents

In 2022, BCP Stand-alone’s total loans grew 4.1%, in average daily balances, mainly driven by growth in Wholesale Banking led by the Corporate segment which participated actively in lending during the fishing and agricultural campaigns during 2022. Growth in Retail Banking was driven by Consumer loans due to an uptick in cash disbursement in 2022.

For further analysis of our asset structure, please see “Item 5.A Operating results – (5) Financial position – 5.1 Total Assets – Loan evolution”.

Portfolio Quality

The internal overdue loan ratio at BCP Stand-alone increased to 3.93% in 2022, compared to 3.67% in 2021 (which represented an increase from 3.19% in 2020). This was mainly driven by the SME segments, specifically due to clients from new segments with higher risk profiles and commensurately higher margins. For further analysis of the ratio per business segment, see “Item 5.A Operating results – (5) Financial position – 5.1 Total Assets – Portfolio quality” (bullets one to six).

BCP Stand-alone’s provisions for credit losses on loan portfolio, net of recoveries increased by 55.6%, with respect to 2021 (in comparison to the 82.4% decrease in 2021 with respect to 2020) attributable to (i) updates to macroeconomic projections to reflect a deterioration in inflation, which mainly impacted the Consumer and Credit Card segments; and (ii) deterioration in payment behavior in the consumer sector, which was affected by higher inflation in 2022. In this context, BCP Stand-alone’s cost of risk situated at 1.00% in 2022 (in comparison to 0.65% in 2021), after presenting historic lows in 2021.

Funding Structure

At the end of 2022, BCP Stand-alone’s total funding decreased by 12.5% (in comparison to an increase of 0.8% in 2021 and 35.0% in 2020), due to lower Deposits and BCRP instruments, which decreased by 2.6% and 40.9%, respectively fueled by amortizations of Reactiva loans.

Total deposits fell to S/120.6 billion (as compared to S/123.8 billion in 2021, which represented an increase from S/118.3 billion in 2020). The drop was mainly driven by demand deposits and savings deposits, which decreased 16.1% and 3.6%, respectively.

Financial Ratios

BCP Stand-alone’s net earnings contribution to Credicorp totaled S/4,160.8 million in 2022, which represented an increase of 25.6% with regard to the S/3,312.2 million reported in 2021 (and S/605.8 million in 2020). This was a result of the lower level of higher net interest income, fee income and net gain from foreign exchange transactions in line with economy reactivation during 2022.

243

Table of Contents

BCP Stand-alone’s ROAE contribution to Credicorp was 22.0% in 2022 (compared to 19.7% in 2021 and 1.4% in 2020). The higher contribution in 2022 reflects (i) an increase in net interest income as government program loans with lower rates were replaced by structural loans with higher rates and (ii) an increase in fee income as a result of higher transactional volumes and higher foreign exchange transaction in the context of high volatility in FX rates.

NIM stood at 4.57% in 2022, representing an increase of 105basis points with regard to 2021’s NIM of 3.52% (and 3.94% in 2020). This rise was in line with higher market rates and the impact of the amortization of Reactiva loans in BCP balances.

In 2022, the efficiency ratio at BCP Stand-alone stood at 40.8% (versus 43.4% in 2021 and 40.9% in 2020). This was a result of growth in Net Interest Income, Fee Income and FX transactions. Nonetheless, Administrative and General Expenses grew due to digital transformation investment and expenses in technology, data analysis and consultancy; and Salaries and Employee Benefits increase in line with earnings increase.

6.1.2 BCP Bolivia

Asset Structure

By the end of 2022, BCP Bolivia’s total assets amounted to S/12.7 billion, which represents an 8.0% decrease compared to S/13.8 billion in 2021. The decrease in Bolivia’s loan portfolio was approximately 3.4%. At the same time, temporary and permanent investments also decreased by 15.8%. Adjusting for variations in the Peruvian Sol to the Boliviano exchange rate, in 2022 total assets would have decreased by 3.3%, the loan portfolio would have increased by 1.5%, and temporary and permanent investments would have decreased by 11.6%.

Portfolio Quality

The past-due ratio has increased from 0.97% in 2021 to 2.59% in 2022.

Funding Structure

By the end of 2022, BCP Bolivia decreased its total liabilities by 8.7%, in comparison to the increase of 10.0% in 2021. This includes a decrease in total customer deposits of 3.9%. Adjusting for variations in the Peruvian Sol to Boliviano exchange rate, total liabilities would have decreased by 4.1% and total deposits would have increased by 0.9%.

244

Table of Contents

Net profit

BCP Bolivia’s net profit amounted to S/68.0 million in 2022, which represents a 5.9% decrease compared to S/72.3 million in 2021. Adjusting for variations in the Peruvian Sol to Boliviano exchange rate, the decrease would have been 3.0%.

6.2 Microfinance

6.2.1 Mibanco Peru

Asset Structure

Total assets at Mibanco were S/17.2 billion as of December 31, 2022 (compared to S/16.2 billion as of December 31, 2021, and S/15.6 billion as of December 31, 2020). The 6.6% increase in total assets in 2022 reflects growth in the loan portfolio and an increase in short-term investments to make excess liquidity more profitable.

On December 31, 2022, Mibanco’s loans totaled S/14.1 billion, which represents 4.3% growth compared to 2021 (compared to 4.5% from 2020 to 2021 and 20.5% from 2019 to 2020). This growth was driven by structural loans, the majority of which were concentrated in the small business segment, which registered a 13.0% increase in its loan level in 2022 (compared to an increase of 12.5% in 2021 and 15.1% in 2020). This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the microbusiness segment of 12.2% in 2022 (compared to a decrease of 11.1% in 2021 and a increase of 46.5% in 2020). The small business and micro business segments represented a higher share of total loans in 2022, with shares of 66.8% and 22.8% respectively (as compared to 61.5% and 27.0% in 2021 and 56.5% and 31.4% in 2020). Finally, Mibanco’s loan portfolio represented 80.9% of total interest-earning assets in 2022 (as compared to 83.3% in 2021).

Cash and investments increased by 22.65% in 2022 (as compared to a decrease of 18.13% in 2021 and an increase of 23.57% in 2020). This growth was attributable to a year-over-year increase in liquid assets to address outflows from retail time deposits.

Portfolio Quality

Despite the deterioration observed in credit quality during 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, Mibanco’s credit quality improved in 2022 and the cost of risk was 3.5% by the end of 2022 (as compared to 3.2% and 8.4% at the end of 2021 and 2020, respectively). This increase in cost of risk was primarily mainly driven by higher loan volume in riskier segments and was partially offset by methodological changes in the risk model during the second quarter of 2022. The coverage ratio for total loans in 2022 was situated at 7.1% (as compared to 8.5% and 14.1% in 2021 and 2020 respectively).

245

Table of Contents

Funding Structure

On December 31, 2022, total liabilities at Mibanco amounted to S/14.4 billion, which represent an increase of 4.7% as compared to S/13.8 billion at the end of 2021 (and S/13.5 billion at the end of 2020). In 2022, Mibanco's funding strategy reflected an increase in retail time deposits and new bond issuances.

In 2022, average total deposits continued to represent the largest source of funding, accounting for 64.5% (as compared to 61.1% in 2021 and 64.0% in 2020) of average total liabilities. The significant growth in retail time deposits was driven by a higher market rates. The significant growth in bonds and subordinated debt, for which in 2022 the average balance was S/552.7 million (up 193.5% from S/188.3 million in 2021), was driven by new issuances of certificated deposits due to higher funding requirements, as the loan volumes increased significantly during the year. The drop of 14.3% in Due to Banks and correspondents was driven by the prepayment of government-backed Reactiva and FAE-Mype loans and the corresponding debt with the BCRP. This new funding structure and higher market rates led our funding costs to rise to 5.61% by the end of 2022 (as compared to 2.22% at the end of 2021 and 2.28% at the end of 2020).

In this context, Mibanco took advantage of more stable funding, particularly retail time deposits and certificates of deposit to cover its funding needs as they provide lower rates in a context of rising market rates.

Financial ratios

Net earnings at Mibanco totaled S/424.9 million in 2022, as compared to S/266.1 million in net earnings in 2021 (and S/379.0 million in net losses in 2020). Net earnings attributable to Credicorp totaled S/415.5 in 2022, as compared to S/260.2 million in 2021, and compared to net losses of S/370.5 million in 2020.

Mibanco’s ROAE contribution to Credicorp was 16.5% in 2022, compared to its contributions of 11.9% and (18.1%) in 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in Mibanco’s ROAE contribution reflects (i) an increase in net interest income driven by higher structural loan volumes and higher market rates and (ii) an increase in non-interest income driven by higher fees from bancassurances as a result of an increase in transaction levels in 2022. The aforementioned increase was partially offset by (i) an increase in net provisions for loan losses, in line with higher loan volumes and higher delinquencies in specific vintages and (ii) higher operating expenses due to the execution of strategic initiatives and higher professional expenses due to improved financial performance.

NIM was situated at 13.2% in 2022 which represents an increase of 139bps as compared to NIM in 2021 (11.9% in 2021 and 10.8% in 2020). The increase in NIM was fueled by growth in the loan portfolio, higher interest rates and a more profitable asset mix, which was partially offset by a simultaneous increase in interest expenses due to higher market interest rates.

In 2022, Mibanco’s efficiency ratio was 51.3%, which represents an improvement as compared to the 55.8% and 63.1% ratios registered for 2021 and 2020, respectively. This result was primarily attributable to an increase in net interest income, which was partially offset by increased operating expenses due to higher personnel expenses resulting from improved financial performance and execution of strategic initiatives.

6.2.2 Mibanco Colombia

At Mibanco Colombia, the loan portfolio totaled $1,532.5 billion Colombian pesos at year-end, which represents an increase of 42% year-over-year. The year’s growth was sustained by an increase in productivity as measured by monthly loans disbursed per executive, which grew from 11.8 disbursements per executive in 2021 to 14.2 disbursements in 2022. The microcredit segment continues to represent the largest share of the loan portfolio, representing 71.91% of total gross loans at the end of December 2022.

The increases in interest income and other income were in line with the growth in gross loan amounts. Interest income grew 41% and nonfinancial income grew 54% year-over-year, according to the growth of credits.

Our funding cost grew 801 bps from 2021 to 2022, which was primarily attributable to an increase in the reference rate, which grew 900bps as a result of the inflationary pressures of the region. As of December 31, 2022, the reference rate was 12%.

Improvements in collections and disbursement management leveraged in data analytics generated a significant decrease in net provisions for loan losses. The 30-day non-performing loan ratio was 3.7% at year-end 2022, 232bps less than at year-end 2021. As a result, Mibanco’s cost of risk was 2.7% at year-end 2022.

Finally, Mibanco Colombia’s operating expenses increased 26%, due to a 30% increase in the number of our loan officers during 2022. In addition, important expenses were made such as: new branches (+12), digital transformation, organizational culture and strengthening of administrative positions. These facts generated a efficiency ratio of 82.8% for the end of 2022.

6.3.1 Grupo Pacífico

Net Profits

Grupo Pacífico’s net profit before non-controlling interest was S/451.7 million in 2022, S/582.2 million higher than the (S/130.5) million loss reported in 2021 (compared to S/194.6 million in 2020). This higher net profit was mainly associated with:

247

Table of Contents

•

An increase in net profit for the Life insurance business, which totaled S/282.8 million in 2022, S/624.7 million higher than the (S/341.9) million loss reported in 2021 (compared to a (S/53.7) million loss in 2020). This increase was primarily due to (i) a decrease in net claims as a consequence of a drop in excess mortality for COVID-19, (ii) growth in the level of net earned premiums, which reflected economic reactivation and (iii) higher net financial income.

•

An increase in net profit for Corporate health insurance and medical services (only 50% of these business profits correspond to Grupo Pacífico, given its partnership with Banmedica), which totaled S/73.2 million in 2022, 10.2% higher than the S/53.8 million reported in 2021 and higher the S/59.9 million reported in 2020.

•

An increase in net profit for the Crediseguro business, which represented S/11.7 million in 2022, 70.5% higher than the S/8.4 million reported in 2021 and the S/7.3 million in 2020.

These results were partially offset by:

•

A decrease in net profit for the P&C insurance business, which totaled S/83.0 million in 2022, 44.1% lower than the S/148.5 million reported in 2021 (compared to S/180.7 million in 2020). This decrease is attributable to an increase in net claims as a result of higher case frequency in Cars and Commercial Lines (due to fewer confinement measures imposed by the government in 2022 compared to 2021), which was partially offset by an increase in written premiums.

Grupo Pacífico’s net profit contribution to Credicorp was S/446.6 million in 2022, S/575.9 million higher than the (S/129.3) million loss reported in 2021 and higher than the S/192.0 million gain reported in 2020.

Grupo Pacífico reported written premiums of S/4,538.4 million in 2022, which represented an increase of 4.6% compared to 2021. This increase was mainly attributable to the Group Life, Disability and survivorship, Credit Life, medical assistance, personal lines, automobile, and commercial lines, but offset by reductions in the annuities and individual lifelines.

Table of Contents

Financial Ratios

Grupo Pacífico’s ROAE was 19.2% in 2022, higher than its ROAE (5.0%) in 2021. This was explained by (i) higher underwriting results in the Life business due to lower cases of COVID-19 generated as a consequence of the improvement in the health situation and (ii) higher net financial income due to higher inflation and the positive effect of better rates on our investment portfolio, thanks to high credit quality and professional investment management. These effects were attenuated by higher general expenses due to increased personnel and third-party service expenses, and higher claims in the P&C business attributable to growth in claims through the Cars and Commercial Lines due to an uptick in claims frequency.

P&C Insurance Business

Grupo Pacífico’s P&C insurance business achieved net profit of S/83.0 million in 2022, which was 44.1% lower than the S/148.5 million reported in 2021. This decrease is attributable to (i) lower underwriting results due to higher net claims and net fees, (i) higher operating expenses and (iii) lower translation results and other income. This was partially offset by higher financial net income.

The 2022 underwriting results decreased 1.8% from 2021, which decrease was mainly attributable to an increase in net claims and higher fees and partially offset by an increase in net premiums and lower underwriting expenses.

Net claims increased 11.4% in 2022, which increase was attributable to growth in claims (i) in the Cars business unit due to the increase in the frequency of reported cases as a result of the normalization of activities compared to last year, and (ii) in Commercial Lines as a result of increased severity in Transportation and all Contractors Risk. As a result, the loss ratio in 2022 was 49.5% higher than 46.7% in 2021 because of the increase in claims as discussed above and this result is approaching pre-pandemic levels.

Written premiums totaled S/1,903.2 million in 2022, which represented an increase of 4.9% compared to 2021 and reflected growth across all lines. This increase is attributable to (i) Commercial Lines, due to the volume of policy renewals in Fire, Third-party Liability and Transportation Risks; (ii) Medical Assistance, due to growth in premium renewals for comprehensive health and oncological products; (iii) Cars, due to an increase in renewals in the Brokers and Digital Sales channels; and (iv) Personal lines, due to an increase in policy issuances for the credit card product through digital sales and Personal Accidents. The aforementioned increase was lower than market growth (+11.0%). However, Pacífico maintained its second place in the P&C business with a 21.4% market share as of December 31, 2022 (versus 20.7% at the end of 2021), according to the SBS.

The acquisition cost ratio showed an improvement to 20.4% in 2022, compared to the 21.0% recorded the previous year, due to lower underwriting expenses. The ratio of general expenses to net earned premium increased from 22.4% in 2021 to 23.8% in 2022, due to higher personnel and third-party service expenses.

Finally, financial income showed an increase over the previous year (+21.8%), as a result of higher interest on investments and deposits in banks.

Life Insurance Business

Grupo Pacífico’s life insurance business’s net profit was S/282.8 million in 2022, compared to net losses of S/341.9 million reported in 2021. This increase was mainly attributable to (i) a significant decrease in net claims, (ii) an important growth in written premiums and lower reserves, (iii) higher net financial income and (iv) higher translations results. These increases were attenuated by higher acquisition costs and total expenses, in addition to lower other income.

In 2022, net claims decreased by 27% compared to 2021, due to lower excess mortality as a result of the advancement of COVID-19 vaccination with the third and fourth doses, decreasing the level of excess mortality significantly compared to that generated in 2021 as a consequence of the second wave of the pandemic (which mainly affected D&S and Credit Life). This decrease in net claims resulted in a decreased loss ratio from 80.5% in 2021 to 36.8% in 2022.

Grupo Pacífico’s life insurance business reported written premiums of S/2,560.7 million in 2022, which represented an increase of 4.1% compared to 2021. This result is explained by the country’s economic recovery, mainly attributable to (i) Group Life, primarily by SCTR as a result of rate adjustments in the Mining and Fishing portfolio, and also due to the acquisition of new accounts, (ii) D&S, due to higher premium collection from SISCO V, and (ii) Credit life, through the bancassurance channel due to higher sales. These effects were attenuated by the decrease in premiums attributable to (i) Annuities, due to decline in sales of Individuals Annuities and Survivorship Annuities, and (ii) Individual Life, through direct channels and bancassurance due to lower sales. All these effects contributed to maintaining Grupo Pacífico’s top position in the market in terms of written premiums, according to the SBS.

Table of Contents

The acquisition cost increased in 2022 compared to 2021, mainly due to the increase in fees in Credit life and Group Life primarily as a result of SCTR’s institution of higher insurance premiums. The acquisition cost ratio decreased in 2022, to 31.0% from 33.0% in 2021, due to the increases in premiums.

Financial income grew by 7.9% in 2022 compared to 2021 as a result of optimal investment management in terms of profitability and control, and the greater impact of inflation, despite the volatile context of the capital markets as a result of internal political instability, external factors and the impacts of the pandemic.

Corporate Health and Medical Services Insurance Business

Corporate health insurance and medical services achieved a net profit of S/146.5 million in 2022, which was 36.2% higher than the S/107.6 million reported in 2021. This increase in net profit can be attributed to a higher net profit in corporate health insurance, as a result of a higher renewal premiums, and an increase in medical services income, which was mainly attributable to health clinics and specialized clinics (S/109.5 million in 2022 versus S/102.4 million in 2021) as a result of an increase in the demand for services.

Underwriting, Actuarial and Reinsurance

Underwriting guidelines for substantially all the risks associated with the P&C and corporate health insurance businesses are developed by profit centers in collaboration with the actuarial staff. Grupo Pacífico’s P&C insurance business unit has an engineering staff that ensures that most medium and medium-to-large commercial properties are insured for risks prior to underwriting, while third party surveyors are employed to inspect smaller and/or lower risk properties. Pricing and underwriting guidelines, rates, and approval thresholds for these risks, are periodically reviewed by the staff, reported to the Risk and Pricing Committees, and continuously monitored to ensure that they are within competitive market conditions and profitability targets.

253

Table of Contents

Grupo Pacífico’s P&C insurance business transfers risks to reinsurers in order to limit maximum aggregate potential losses and minimize exposures to large individual risks. Reinsurance companies are chosen based on the evaluation of the credit quality of the reinsurer, financial rating, terms of coverage and price. The P&C insurance business acts as a reinsurer on a very limited basis, providing excess facultative reinsurance capacity to other Peruvian insurers that are unable to satisfy their reinsurance requirements and/or the interests of Peruvian clients in the Latin American region.

Historically, Grupo Pacífico’s P&C insurance business has obtained reinsurance for a substantial portion of its earthquake-related (and other catastrophic risks) insurance portfolio through quota share and excess of loss reinsurance treaties. The insurance business has property catastrophe reinsurance coverage that covers its probable maximum loss under local regulatory requirements. However, there is no guarantee that a major catastrophe would not have a material adverse impact on Grupo Pacífico’s financial condition and/or its operations.

In 2022, Grupo Pacífico’s total ceded reinsurance premiums totaled approximately US$ 213 million (approximately 18.3% of total group written premiums), of which approximately 89% were ceded to carriers with A- and above ratings.

Grupo Pacífico’s life insurance business holds excess loss reinsurance contracts for its individual life, personal accident, group life and credit life products; in the case of work compensation risk insurance and D&S products, a quota share contract is held. Catastrophic reinsurance contracts cover all of Grupo Pacífico’s lifelines (Individual Life, Personal Accident, Group Life, Credit Life, SCTR and D&S), except for the annuity line. Life premiums ceded to reinsurers represented less than 8.5% of the life insurance businesses written premiums in 2021.

Investment Portfolio

Grupo Pacífico’s investments are primarily made to meet its solvency equity ratio and provide reserves for its claims. Investments are managed by product within the P&C and life insurance businesses and are designed to contain sufficient assets to match the company’s liabilities. Grupo Pacífico has adopted strict policies related to investment decisions that are reviewed and approved by Grupo Pacífico’s Board of Directors on a monthly basis. Grupo Pacífico invests in local and international markets, emphasizing investments in Peru, the United States, and Latin America.

This diversified portfolio follows an asset-liability management strategy focused on cash flow, duration, and currency matching of assets (portfolio) and liabilities (reserves), as well as on supporting Grupo Pacífico’s capital structure. Grupo Pacífico’s financial income increased by 9% in 2022 to S/710.5 million from S/654.3 million in 2021.

The decrease was mainly due to fund withdrawal approved by the government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, the nominal annual yield for Fund 0 was 5.2%, with negative nominal annual yields of (5.3%), (7.0%), and (8.2%) for Funds 1, 2, and 3, respectively.

Prima AFP’s revenues were S/373.7 million in 2022, lower than S/378.7 million in 2021 and higher than S/352.1 in 2020.

Additionally, operating expenses amounted to S/188.9 million in 2022, which was an increase as compared to S/187.8 million in 2021 and S/160.4 million in 2020. This increase was mainly due to higher personnel expenses and penalties for property return.

Prima AFP’s net profit was S/109.5.million in 2022, which was a decrease compared to S/146.1 million and S/148.1 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively. In 2022, Prima AFP’s ROAE decreased to 20.4% compared to 22.9% in 2021 and 21.2% in 2020.

6.4 Investment Banking and Wealth Management

Our Investment Banking and Wealth Management LoB registered a net profit attributable to Credicorp of S/106.5 million in 2022. Throughout this year, we went through periods of high political uncertainty and economic instability in the region (Latam), in addition to adverse global macroeconomic conditions. We faced a particularly challenging context in which both structural and circumstantial changes began to materialize in the markets we operate in, including, among others, the significant market contraction for the Mutual Funds business in Peru, the client’s preference for offshore platforms to mitigate country-related risks, the diminished investment capacity and liquidity of institutional clients, and the loss of assets value due to market conditions. These changes had a considerable impact on the performance and dynamism of our business units, recording revenues 13% lower compared to the previous year.

Nonetheless, despite the difficult conditions and adversities faced this year, we continued to develop key strategic projects for our future growth with a transformational focus that will allow us to generate scale and achieve our aspirational goals.

6.4.1 Corporate Finance

Our Corporate Finance business was affected by a context in which both economic and market conditions proved unfavorable for the execution of corporate transactions. However, we succeeded in executing a series of large-scale transactions throughout 2022, including the structuring of the loans granted to Empresa de Generación Huanza S.A. and Inmobiliaria Pardo in Peru, and to FIP Aqua in Chile, in addition to the M&A advisory provided to Pesco (also in Chile). Overall, our Corporate Finance business revenues grew 2% from 2021 to 2022, supported by a remarkable growth in Chile.

6.4.2 Asset Management

In our Asset Management business, 2021 market conditions established by an unstable political and social context led to early withdrawals from local traditional funds, particularly in Peru, where our mutual funds lost assets under management by 47% by the end of the year and the market structurally reduced its total size by 29%. In 2022, local market conditions did not show any recovery, as assets migrated last year by private banking and institutional clients to offshore platforms were kept abroad to mitigate the risk in the region, and institutional clients lost liquidity due to government-approved withdrawals in favor of its clients. As a result, recovering assets under management was challenging, despite the significant efforts made by the company throughout the year. In 2022, the Peruvian local mutual funds market showed an additional contraction of 12% compared to 2021, according to the SMV.

256

Table of Contents

In 2021, local asset outflows were partially offset as some of these funds migrated to our offshore platforms, where we offer proprietary funds under regional strategies (such as our Vision Global funds and Luxembourg funds) and offer third-party funds to our private banking clients. Clients were attracted by an offer of products that maintained international standards and competitive returns, as well as an investment team with knowledge and specialization in the Latin American market. Nevertheless, in 2022, the demand for these products fell below expectations as clients preferred to keep a substantial amount of their funds as deposits.

In addition, our Asset Management business was affected by lower assets market value due to global macroeconomic conditions for investments. This had an impact on our traditional proprietary funds business, but also on the third-party fund distribution business, which was also affected by the diminished investment capacity and liquidity of institutional clients, making it difficult to raise new funds. This business was particularly affected in Chile, where Allianz´s licenses issues led to additional asset outflows.

By the end of the year, total assets under management, including institutional and retail clients, exceeded S/67 billion, representing a decrease of 30% compared to the previous year, as revenues dropped 24%.

6.4.3 Capital Markets

Our Capital Markets business was significantly affected by a context of global rising inflation and interest rates, local political uncertainty and social instability. Revenues in the management of proprietary trading positions, including long and short positioning strategies, together with hedging strategies with derivatives instruments, were lower than expected but exceeded those achieved in 2021 by more than 90%. On the other hand, in our sales business, revenues from individuals decreased compared to those in 2021 (a year in which clients settled part of their equity positions and traded volumes peaked), as same as those from institutional clients (as traded volumes remained lower than expected throughout the year). Revenues from corporate clients in Colombia and Chile grew 15% compared to 2021, boosted by FX transactions capitalizing on the volatility of the foreign exchange markets. Overall, revenues for our Capital Markets Business increased compared to those registered in 2021 by 14%.

6.4.4 Wealth Management

Our Wealth Management business saw similar results across countries. Overall, total revenues decreased 14% as compared to 2021 and assets under management reached a total of S/58.2 billion, a contraction of 11% compared to 2021, mostly driven by a significant market value loss.

In Peru, revenues fell by 15% compared to 2021 as assets under management did not meet expectations, recording net outflows in a context where global and local conditions limited liquidity events for our clients. Revenues decreased in both onshore and offshore platforms, driven by a lower demand for third-party funds (as mentioned above), lower traded volumes in brokerage, lower lending volumes and a reduction in Vicctus (our Multi Family Office service) fees. On the other hand, revenues were boosted by margin income from deposits (as funds migrated to our offshore platform last year remained on balance pending for more profitable investment opportunities).

In Colombia and Chile, revenues dropped 28% and 8% compared to 2021, respectively, as income from asset management products did not meet expectations.

(2) Cash flows and Capital Expenditures

The following table shows net cash from operating, investing and financing activities, for the periods indicated:

	2020			2021			2022
	In thousands of Soles
Net cash flow from operating activities		12,685,573			3,972,994			(1,134,877	)
Net cash flows from investing activities		(1,872,106	)		(3,727,711	)		(1,094,965	)
Net cash flows from financing activities		(2,088,460	)		(465,296	)		(1,600,815	)

Operating Activities

Net cash flow from operating activities decreased S/5,108 million from 2021 to 2022, which was primarily attributable to an increase in investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, a decrease in payables from repurchase agreements associated with government programs and securities lending and a decrease in deposits and obligations. This was partially offset by reduced loan activity resulting from a reduction in loans associated with government programs, decreased investments at fair value through profit or loss and increased amounts due to banks and correspondents and other liabilities.

Net cash flow from operating activities decreased S/8,714 million from 2020 to 2021, mainly due to a reduction in payables from repurchase agreements associated with government programs and securities lending and a decrease in deposits and obligations. This was partially offset by a decrease in investments at fair value through other comprehensive income and the lower requirement of cash in loans, as a result of a reduction in loans associated with government programs.

Investing Activities

Variations in net cash flow from investing activities were mainly due to lower purchases and higher investment sales at amortized cost mainly in BCP. The exact opposite happened in 2021 compared to 2020, where the cash used was higher by S/1,856 million.

In 2022, 2021 and 2020 intangible assets consumed cash of S/704 million, S/532 million and S/535 million, respectively, mainly driven by digital transformation efforts and disruptive initiatives.

Financing Activities

In 2022, net cash flows used in financing activities were S/1,600.08 million, which represented S/1,135.5 million more used in financing activities than in 2021. This increase was mainly due to dividends paid increasing from S/398.8 million in 2021 to S/1,196.4 million in 2022, which in turn resulted from increased net profits as the COVID-19 pandemic crisis waned.

Net cash flow used in financing activities were S/465.3 million in 2021, which represented S/1,623.2 million less used in financing activities than in 2020. This decrease was mainly due to dividends paid decreasing from S/2,392.8 million in 2020 to S/398.8 million in 2021, which in turn resulted from decreased net profits due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

(3) Liquidity Risk

We manage our assets and liabilities to ensure that we have sufficient liquidity to meet our present and future financial obligations and take advantage of appropriate business opportunities as they arise. Liquidity risk represents the potential for loss as a result of limitations on our ability to adjust future cash flows to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and to fund operations on a timely and cost-effective basis. Financial obligations arise from withdrawals of deposits, repayment on maturity of purchased funds, extensions of loans or other forms of credit, and working capital needs.

The growth of our deposit base over the years has enabled us to significantly increase our lending activity. BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco are subject to SBS Resolution No. 9075-2012, enacted in December 2012, which set responsibilities for liquidity management within the different committees and risk units, and established minimum liquidity ratios. The ratio of liquid assets as a percentage of short-term liabilities, as defined by the SBS, must exceed 8% for Soles-based transactions and 20% for foreign exchange transactions. The aggregate average daily ratios of BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco during December 2022 was 25.51% and 46.59% for Soles and foreign exchange transactions, respectively, demonstrating our excess liquidity. We have never defaulted on any of our debt or been forced to reschedule any of our obligations. Even during the early 1980s, when the government of Peru and many Peruvian companies and banks were forced to restructure their debt as a result of the Latin American debt crisis and government restrictions, BCP Stand-alone and Grupo Pacífico complied with all of their payment obligations.

The available sources of excess liquidity for Soles and foreign exchange transactions for BCP Stand-alone are as follows. Information with respect to BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco has been aggregated for December 2020, 2021, and 2022:

As the economy gradually recovers and the central bank withdraws liquidity injection measures, liquidity surpluses in Soles are returning to pre-pandemic levels. This trend suggests a normalization of market conditions.

The capability of replacing interest-bearing deposits at their maturity is a key factor in determining liquidity requirements, as well as the exposure to interest and exchange rate risks. RBG, as well as BCP Stand-alone’s private banking group, have developed a diversified and stable deposit base that, in each case, provides us with a low-cost source of funding. This deposit base has traditionally been one of our greatest strengths. The deposit-gathering strategy has focused on products considered to be BCP Stand-alone’s core deposits: demand deposits, savings, time deposits, and severance indemnity deposits. Other sources of funds and liquidity, which are mostly short- and long-term borrowings from correspondent banks and other financial institutions, issued bonds, and notes issued, are of a considerably lower significance compared to our core deposits.

Corporate policies have been implemented by the Group for liquidity risk management. These policies are consistent with the appropriate characteristics of each operating segment, where each of the Group companies operates. The Risk Committee establishes limits and autonomy models to determine the adequate liquidity indicators to be managed.

Throughout 2022 the Group continuously assessed and monitored the sufficiency of its liquid assets in order to cover or mitigate contingencies that could stress the funding requirements of the Group's companies.

Universal banking and Microfinance

Liquidity risk exposure is based on indicators such as the Internal Liquidity Coverage Ratio (ILCR) which measures the amount of liquid assets available to meet needs that would result from cash outflows within a given stress scenario for a period of 30 days, and the Internal Net Stable Funding Ratio, which is intended to ensure that long-term assets are financed with a minimum number of stable liabilities within a prolonged liquidity crisis scenario (funding crisis); the latter indicator functions as a minimum compliance mechanism that supplements the ILCR. The core limits of these indicators are 100% and any excess is presented to the Credicorp Treasury and ALM Risk Committee, Credicorp Risk Committee and ALM Committee of the respective subsidiary. Furthermore, Credicorp has internal appetite risk limits that are monitored and reported on to the Credicorp Treasury and ALM Risk Committee.

Insurance

Liquidity risk management follows a particular approach reflecting the nature of the business. For annually renewable businesses, the focus of liquidity is the quick availability of resources in the event of a systemic event (for example, an earthquake). For this purpose, there are minimum investment indicators in place relating to local cash/time deposits and foreign fixed-income instruments of high quality and liquidity.

For long-term insurance businesses, given the nature of the products offered and the contractual relationship with customers, the liquidity risk is not material. Rather, the focus is on maintaining a sufficient flow of assets and matching their maturities with the maturities of obligations (for example, through the mathematical reserve). For this purpose, there are indicators that measure the asset/liability sufficiency and adequacy, as well as calculations of economic capital subject to interest rate risk.

Pension funds

Liquidity risk management is differentiated between the fund administrator and the funds being managed. Liquidity risk management regarding the fund administrator is focused on meeting periodic operating expense needs, which are supported by the collection of commissions. The fund administrator does not record unexpected outflows of liquidity because its main financial obligations are payroll payments, taxes, reserve requirements and other accounts payable to suppliers. Liquidity risk in the funds managed (pension funds) is focused on meeting liquidity requirements due to scheduled pension payments, funds transfers to other AFPs, withdrawals of voluntary contributions, or anything else deemed necessary to be included in estimations. For this purpose, the company holds highly liquid assets as part of the managed portfolios to meet these cash requirements.

Investment banking

Liquidity risk principally affects the security brokerage. In managing this risk, limits on the use of liquidity have been implemented to promote matching maturities by dealing desk. Follow-up liquidity assessments are performed on a daily basis for a short-term horizon covering imminent settlements. If short-term unmatched maturities are observed, repurchase agreements are used. On the other hand, structural risk is not significant given the low levels of debt, which are monitored regularly using financial planning tools.

The following list sets forth the most important trends, uncertainties and events that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our revenues, income from continuing operations, profitability, liquidity, or capital resources, or that would cause reported financial information not necessarily to be indicative of future operating results or financial condition. Some of these trends, uncertainties and events are beyond our ability to influence.

Table of Contents

For further information about these and other key risks and uncertainties for the Group, please see “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.D Risk Factors.”

Macroeconomic and Social Context

Timely and complete achievement of our strategic targets and aspirations may be adversely affected by reduced revenue-generating capacities of some of our core businesses if macroeconomic and social risks crystallize. These risks include but are not limited to slow growth in Peru’s GDP and private consumption, the effects of tightened monetary policy, continuing social unrest and resulting protests and destructive natural phenomena.

In a context of global economic slowdown and elevated uncertainty around key economic variables, we expect Peru’s GDP will grow between 1.8% and 2.2% in 2023 due to the lagged effect of monetary tightening on activity, lower purchasing power due to cumulative inflation of approximately 20% from December 2021 to December 2023 and contraction of both public and private investment. We anticipate that private consumption will grow more slowly than in 2022 as the post-COVID-19 rebound fades. We also expect that the social unrest of January and February and the heavy rain and floods of March will serve as drags on GDP in the first quarter of the year. Regarding monetary policy, in January 2023, the BCRP raised its interest rate by 25 basis points to 7.75%, a new historical high, and surprised markets by maintaining this rate In its February meeting. According to the BCRP, this pause does not imply the end of the hiking cycle. Hence, future rate hikes will be conditional on new information regarding inflation and its determinants, including the macroeconomic effects of recent social conflicts.

For further information regarding GDP expectations from the countries where Credicorp operates, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY".

Since December 2022, Peruvians have lived with political uncertainty due to the protests caused by social unrest after Dina Boluarte took over as the president of Peru. Protests primarily focused on the southern regions of the country where Castillo still has an important base and followers. The protests have resulted in at least 50 reported deaths and two Mibanco agencies were set on fire. BCP Stand-alone and Mibanco have granted payment facilities to their customers in the geographical areas and economic sectors affected by the protests. As of the end of March, these payment facilities did not represent a material impact on Credicorp’s operations. Local authorities expect the protests to continue in the coming months to a lesser extent and, therefore, we estimate that future protests may have repercussions repercussion in loan disbursement and in our customers payment behavior.

For further information about political tension, social unrest and protest, please see “ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.A Operating results – Political environment”.

In March 2023, the National Meteorological and Hydrological Service of Peru (SENAMHI by its Spanish initials) reported the presence of Cyclone Yaku off the northern coast of Peru and stated that this natural phenomenon could become an unusual Niño phenomenon on the Peruvian coast. Since March 8, the coast of Peru has been hit by heavy rains, causing rising and overflowing rivers, flooding of villages and dragging of crops and activation of river ravines. Consequently, multiple casualties, missing persons, damage to livestock, loss of property, damage to homes and livelihoods (commerce and tourism) have been reported. As of the end of March, these payment facilities did not represent a material impact on Credicorp’s operations. The rains are expected to continue and so it is too early to measure the impacts on our borrowers’ ability to repay the amounts that they owe to us under existing loans or their capacity to borrow from us in the future.

Market conditions

Recent regulatory developments in Peru may adversely affect the evolution of our loan portfolio, our NIM, the quality of our loan portfolio and our operating efficiency.

On January 13, 2023, Law No. 31670 was published. This law allows Peruvians access to a minimum retirement pension and expands the voluntary contribution alternatives for members of the Private Pension Fund Administration System (PPS). The law seeks to set a retirement target by establishing that (i) affiliates may set a target of provisional saving; (ii) a minimum pension will be decided by the affiliates, being an amount not less than the basket of basic goods determined by the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics, and (iii) the affiliates may use the excess of the individually funded account.

On October 7, 2022, the BCRP approved, through Circular No. 0024, a regulation governing interoperability of payment services provided by providers, agreements and payment systems. This regulation covers mobile wallet applications such as Yape. The circular stipulates that mobile wallets Yape and PLIN should comply with interoperability standards by no later than March 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2023 Credicorp had fully complied with the BCRP requirements regarding the interoperability. In July 2023, all other financial institutions that would like to integrate to this interoperability initiative. There will be added a feature of interoperable QR codes.

For Credicorp this represents an opportunity because interoperability will accelerate the financial inclusion in Peru, which in turn helps to improve the financial health of citizens and help to reduce poverty. Moreover, the payments ecosystem in Peru, where Yape is the main player, will continue growing. Finally, Yape offers many more features in addition to instant payments (mobile top-ups, payments of services, promos, low-ticket investments, micro loans, and more to come), and as such is better prepared to attract new customers and access a larger universe of potential clients.

271

Table of Contents

The challenges, or risks that arise for Yape with interoperability are: (1) the increased competition, since other players will have access to Yape clients ecosystem where, as explained above, Yape is well prepared to compete, and (2) increased operational risk, given quality of service and stability of operations will depend on more players / service providers at the ecosystem.

The evolution of the above macroeconomic factors and market conditions may impact Credicorp’s results and operations in the following ways:

•

Loans: Lending activity is expected to slow compared to 2022 due to lower expectations of macroeconomic growth.

•

NIM: While BCRP’s monetary policy will depend on the inflation environment and its determinants, we expect high levels of market interest rates to remain through the third quarter of this year. Moreover, Credicorp will continue to focus on growing in retail segments and maintaining its competitive funding base. As a result, we expect to maintain an upward trend in NIM through 2023.

•

Portfolio quality and cost of risk: We expect that the cost of risk of Credicorp’s loan portfolio will increase to slightly above pre-pandemic levels in 2023. This trend reflects (i) higher uncertainty related to recent political, social and climate events; (ii) an on-going trend back to pre-pandemic figures at each segment’s level; and (iii) the shift of our loan portfolio mix towards retail segments.

•

Operating efficiency: In 2023, we will continue to invest in digital transformation and disruptive initiatives, which prepare us to adapt fast in our changing environment and strengthen our long-term competitiveness.

In a medium-term perspective, we review our strategic initiatives on a constant basis, and are well prepared to implement tactic moves to rapidly adapt accordingly to navigate our changing environment:

•

We are conscious that we have a responsibility to positively impact the communities in which we operate. We are committed to collaborating to create a more sustainable and inclusive economy, to improve the financial health of the population and to empower our customers and employees to thrive. In order to accomplish this commitment, we are leveraging new digital capabilities. Our digital transformation and innovation strategy is key to continue creating value for all of our stakeholders. We continue to invest in its technology and digital capabilities across its franchises, including digital platforms and channels and cloud-based solutions.

•

Universal Banking: Maintaining our clients’ experience and operating efficiency remain our priorities.

At BCP Stand-alone, we will continue to focus on client experience while optimizing operating efficiency by leveraging data analytics to continue evolving our segmentation, understanding of clients’ behavior, and evolving an integral value proposition for each segment.

At Yape, we will continue to focus on growth and monetization. Yape continue growing its active customers base, level of usage per active customer and the number of user generating income, where the initiative is expected to be cash flow neutral by 2024. Interoperability offers an upside for the medium term growth and monetization trend in Yape, as it will accelerate financial inclusion in Peru. Yape is developing new features to better serve our customers, and aspires to become a super app.

•

Microfinance: We seek to consolidate our presence at the base of the pyramid as it continues to accompany client growth.

At Mibanco Peru, we will continue to evolve our hybrid model by leveraging technological and analytical capabilities to strengthen our relationships with clients.

At Mibanco Colombia, we aspire to implement and consolidate the hybrid model to optimize productivity, enhance customer experience, which should help to improve profitability.

•

Insurance and Pensions:

At Pacífico, we will continue to focus in customer experience, leveraging digital capabilities and mainly Credicorp’s distribution channels to foster growth.

At Prima AFP, we will continue to be proactive in collaborative efforts to develop proposals to reform the regulatory framework and create awareness programs. The objective is to evolve toward an inclusive and sustainable pension system, which continues to serve as a mechanism to channel savings to long-term investment and contributes to our economy’s growth.

•

Investment Banking & Wealth Management: We have identified key levers to reach our long-term profitability targets. We will focus on strengthening the Asset Management and Wealth Management businesses to drive our growth in a new scenario in the region.

5.E Critical accounting estimates

The audited annual consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported figures of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses and disclose significant events in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Our estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including the reasonable expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances. The final results could differ from these estimates; however, Management expects that the variations, if any, will not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Key areas involving a high degree of judgment with respect to our estimates and assumptions in the consolidated financial statements include:

(1)

the calculation of the impairment of the portfolio of loans and financial investments,

(2)

the measurement of the fair value of the financial investments,

273

Table of Contents

(3)

the assessment of the impairment of the goodwill,

(4)

The calculation of the technical reserves for insurance claims and premiums,

(5)

the measurement of the fair value of derivative financial instruments, and

(6)

the valuation of share-based payment plans.

Other estimates include the estimated useful life of intangible assets, property, furniture and equipment, and deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

We believe that our judgments, estimates and assumptions are appropriate under the circumstances and that our audited annual consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the financial positions of Credicorp as of December 31, 2021, and 2022 and the results of our operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, in accordance with IFRS.

For more information about our critical accounting estimates and judgments, see: “Note 3 Significant accounting policies, a) Basis of presentation, use of estimates and changes in accounting policies” to the consolidated financial statements; “Note 34.1 Credit Risk” and “Note 34.2 Market Risk Management” for a discussion of risk and sensitivity of certain items; “ITEM 3.

Directors may be, but are not required to be, shareholders. Directors are elected, and their remuneration is determined, at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Directors hold office for three-year terms. Current Directors were elected at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on March 27, 2023 and will hold office until the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in 2026. See “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4. A History and development of the Company – Subsequent Events.” The Board of Directors has the power to appoint any person as a Director to fill a vacancy as a result of the death, disability, disqualification, or resignation of any Director for the remainder of such Director’s term.

Board Decision-making

For the purposes of complying with the Bermuda Government’s Economic Substance regulations, the Board of Directors decided to limit its decisions to matters pertaining to the strategy, objectives, and goals of the Company, as well as main action plans and policies, risk control and management, annual budgets, business plans and control of their implementation, supervision of main expenses, investments, and acquisitions and dispositions, among other decisions of a “passive” nature related to the Company, beginning in October 29, 2020.

Following these changes, the Board of Directors of Grupo Crédito S.A., a subsidiary of Credicorp, has the authority to make “active” decisions pertaining to Credicorp’s subsidiaries, such as making relevant strategic or management decisions, incurring expenditures on behalf of affiliates, coordinating group activities, and providing credit facilities to its affiliates.

Board Committee Structure

The Boards of Directors (and Board Committees) of Credicorp and Grupo Crédito S.A. are composed of the same individuals and the management structure in both companies has been standardized. Credicorp’s and Grupo Crédito S.A.’s Boards of Directors, acting on the recommendation of the Compensation and Nominations Committee, decide on the appointment, ratification or removal of committee members. Directors who are members of committees are appointed to an initial term of up to three-years and maintain such appointments only while being a member of the Board. Regarding Board Committees, the Board of Directors of each of Credicorp and Grupo Crédito S.A. designates a chairperson among its members and approves the respective charters.

On February 5, 2020, the Board of Directors agreed to simplify the structure of its committees, reducing the number of committees from seven to four. As a result, the Executive Committee and the Investment Committee were eliminated, and the Compensation Committee and the Nominating Committee were integrated.

On June 3, 2020, the Board of Directors approved new criteria to define which Directors are categorized as independent. International references for best practice were utilized to improve and broaden the independence criteria. The new scope can be found in Credicorp’s Corporate Governance Policy, which is available on Credicorp’s web page.

For the purposes of complying with the Bermuda Government’s Economic Substance regulations, Credicorp’s Board of Directors decided to limit its decisions to “passive” matters related to the Company, beginning on October 29, 2020. For further details, see “ITEM 6. DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES – 6.C Board Decision-Making”.

•

Management implements an adequate internal control system; in particular, the financial reporting internal control systems;

•

Appropriate procedures to objectively and regularly assess the Corporation's internal control system; and

Furthermore, the Committee must facilitate communication among the external auditors, general managements of Credicorp and subsidiaries, the Internal Audit Division of BCP, in charge of the internal audit duties of Credicorp, hereinafter, the “Internal Audit Division”, and the Board of Directors of Credicorp.

There are currently two members on the Audit Committee: Ms. Patricia Lizarraga Guthertz (financial expert, independent, Chairwoman since June 9, 2020, and Member since April 26, 2017) and Ms. Maria Teresa Aranzabal Harreguy (independent, member of the Audit Committee since June 9, 2020). On June 9, 2020, Mr. Raimundo Morales Dasso was named advisor to this committee. In 2022, Credicorp’s Audit Committee held fourteen meetings.

290

Table of Contents

The Board of Directors has also assigned the Audit Committee the responsibility of overseeing the audit committees at all of Credicorp’s subsidiaries, to the extent permitted by local regulations. Credicorp’s Audit Committee therefore functions as the statutory audit committee for all Credicorp subsidiaries, with the exception of Credicorp Capital Colombia, Credicorp Holding Colombia, Credicorp Capital Chile, ASB Bank Corp. (formerly ASB), Mibanco Colombia (formerly Bancompartir), BCP Bolivia and ICBSA, which are bound by special audit committee requirements set by local regulators. The Audit Committee receives periodic information from the chief audit executive for all of Credicorp’s subsidiaries, including Credicorp Capital Colombia, Credicorp Holding Colombia, Credicorp Capital Chile, ASB Bank Corp., Mibanco Colombia, BCP Bolivia and ICBSA. Therefore, in practice, Credicorp’s Audit Committee oversees all of its subsidiaries’ systems of internal control. For further information, please refer to "Item 16G. A The New York Stock Exchange – Corporate Governance.”

(2) Sustainability Committee

On December 17, 2020, the Board of Directors renamed the Corporate Governance Committee as the Sustainability Committee. Credicorp’s Sustainability Committee is comprised of five Directors from Credicorp. At least two members should be independent: one of them chairs the Committee, and one should be a woman.

The current members of the Sustainability Committee include Mrs. Maria Teresa Aranzabal (Chairwoman, independent), Mr. Antonio Abruña (independent), Mrs. Patricia Lizarraga (independent director), and Mr. Leslie Pierce (non-independent).

These committees were subsequently combined to form the Compensation and Nominations Committee. Credicorp’s Compensation and Nominations Committee consists of five Directors from Credicorp.

291

Table of Contents

The current members of the Compensation Committee include Mr. Alexandre Gouvêa (Chairman, independent), Mr. Luis Romero Belismelis (non-independent), Mr. Raimundo Morales (non-independent), Mr. Antonio Abruña (independent) and Mrs. Maria Teresa Aranzabal (independent). The Compensation and Nominations Committee held eleven meetings in 2022.

Credicorp does not have a fully independent Compensation and Nominations Committee. When the Committee was created, the Board of Directors determined that the most important criterion to select Directors to serve on the Committee was deep knowledge of the organization and its people, which, coupled with the leadership and continuity provided by senior management, ensures that the organization functions efficiently. The Board of Directors believes that each individual on the Committee makes quality, independent judgments in the best interests of Credicorp with regard to all relevant issues and that the committee’s structure currently represents the best possible configuration to ensure that goals are met.

The Compensation and Nominations Committee is responsible for (i) selecting and recommending to the Board of Directors the candidates to be proposed to the General Meeting of Shareholders of Credicorp, as well as to fill any vacancies; (ii) evaluating candidates for the Board of Directors to determine if they meet Credicorp's independence criteria; (iii) proposing to the Board of Directors of Credicorp, for submission to the General Meeting of Shareholders, the attendance fees and remuneration levels of the members of the Boards of Directors and Committees of Credicorp; and (iv) defining the general guidelines of the Compensation Policy that must be implemented in Credicorp.

(4) Risk Committee

Credicorp’s Risk Committee’s consists of five Directors from Credicorp or its subsidiaries. At least one member must be independent, and one should be a woman.

The Risk Committee’s duties are: (i) acknowledging and informing Credicorp’s Board of Directors the level of compliance with the risk appetite and the level of exposure assumed by the Group; (ii) acknowledging the relevant improvements in the comprehensive risk management of the Group; and (iii) proposing the Board the risk appetite and risk tolerance acceptable for Credicorp Ltd.

All bank employees in Peru have the option of belonging to an employee union. The last strike of employees of BCP Stand-alone occurred in 1991 and did not interfere with our operations. In July 2013, we were informed of the establishment of the BCP Stand-alone independent employee union, which represented 0.17% of the BCP Stand-alone’s employees at that time. Today, the employee union represents 1.06% of the total employees of BCP Stand-alone. The relationship with this union has been cordial with an agreement reached in April 2016, an arbitration award and collective bargaining agreement valid from August 2016 to December 2018, and a last collective bargaining agreement that ran from January 2019 to December 2020. During the years 2021 and 2022, BCP and the BCP employee union have held more than 25 negotiation meetings in which we have not been able to reconcile interests; therefore, during the current year we will seek different alternatives without affecting what is essential for each part.

MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

7. A	Major Shareholders

As of December 31, 2022, Credicorp had issued 94,382,317 common shares, of which 14,620,846 were held by ASHC. Under Bermuda law, ASHC has the right to vote the common shares it owns. In order to restructure long term holdings, substantially all of our common shares held by BCP Stand-alone and Grupo Pacífico were transferred to ASHC in April 2004. The table below provides details about the percentage of Credicorp’s common shares owned by holders of 5% or more of our total common shares, as of February 14, 2023.

Owner	Common Shares		Percent of Class ⁽¹⁾
Atlantic Security Holding Corporation		14,620,846		15.49	%
Romero family ⁽²⁾		11,551,019		12.24	%
Dodge & Cox		5,104,662		5.41	%

(1)	As a percentage of all issued and outstanding shares (including shares held by ASHC).

(2)	It includes common shares directly or indirectly owned by Luis Romero Belismelis and his family or companies owned or controlled by them. Mr. Romero B. is the Chairman of the Board.

Voting rights of major shareholders are not different from voting rights of other shareholders. Each share has right to one vote, including the shares owned by Atlantic Security Holding Corporation.

Approximately 9.92% of Credicorp’s total issued and outstanding common shares are currently held in 3,837 individual accounts with Cavalli, a Peruvian security clearing company.

As of December 31, 2022, Credicorp had 79,533,094 floating common shares (excluding the 14,620,846 shares held by ASHC and 228,377 shares held by Credicorp’s subsidiaries that correspond to Credicorp’s long-term compensation program for its key employees). For more details regarding our treasury stock see Note 18 (b) to our consolidated financial statements. Approximately 89.50% of the 94,382,317 Credicorp’s issued common shares were held in the United States. There were approximately fifty registered holders of Credicorp’s common shares in the United States. Because many of these common shares were held by brokers or other nominees, and because of the impracticability of obtaining accurate residence information for all beneficial shareholders, the number of registered holders in the United States is not a representative figure of the beneficial holders or of the residence of beneficial holders. Credicorp is neither directly nor indirectly controlled by another corporation or by any foreign government.

7. B	Related Party Transactions

Under Bermuda law, Credicorp is not subject to any restrictions on transactions with affiliates, other than such restrictions as are applicable to Bermuda companies generally. Credicorp’s Bye-laws provide that a Director may not vote with respect to any contract or proposed contract or arrangement in which that Director has an interest or a conflict of interest. Credicorp has not engaged in any transactions with related parties except through our subsidiaries.

Transactions between the Credicorp companies and those related to Credicorp that exceed US$1 million must have the approval either of the Board of Directors involved or of the body to which this Board has delegated the responsibility. The Finance Areas of each company are responsible of identifying these operations and escalating them to the Board of Directors.

Transactions between Credicorp companies and between Credicorp companies and their employees (without being limited to banking, financial, securities brokerage, investment, other financial services, payments of tariffs and regulatory contributions) that are made in the normal course of its operations, at market prices and values, or in substantially the same terms, including yields, interest rates and collateral, as compared to those prevailing at the same time with third parties, and that do not imply a higher collectability risk and do not present any additional unfavorable terms for Credicorp, are expressly exempted from this requirement. These transactions are considered pre-approved by Credicorp's Board of Directors and may be reported to the Sustainability Committee in order to ensure good practices and detect potential conflicts of interest. For the daily approval of these transactions, the current policies and regulations of each Credicorp company will be followed.

The following table shows Credicorp’s main transactions with related companies as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

8. A	Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information

Our annual consolidated financial statements, audited by an independent registered public accounting firm and accompanied by an audit report, are included beginning on page F-1 of this Annual Report.

(1) Legal Proceedings

We, along with our subsidiaries, are involved in certain legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of conducting business. We do not believe that any liabilities that may result from such proceedings would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, or on the financial condition or results of operations of any of our subsidiaries.

The following is a description of material litigation in which we or our subsidiaries are engaged in as of the date of this Annual Report, or that has had, in the recent past, significant effects on the Company’s financial position or profitability.

Madoff Trustee Litigation. In September 2011, the Trustee for the liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC. (BLMIS) and the substantively consolidated estate of Bernard L. Madoff (the Madoff Trustee) filed a complaint (the Madoff Complaint) against Credicorp’s subsidiary, ASB (now ASB Bank Corp.), in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the Bankruptcy Court). The Madoff Complaint seeks recovery of approximately US$120.0 million in principal amount, which is alleged to be equal to the amount of redemptions between the end of 2004 and the beginning of 2005 of ASB-managed Atlantic U.S. Blue Chip Fund assets invested in Fairfield Sentry Limited (Fairfield Sentry), together with fees, costs, interest, and expenses. The Madoff Complaint seeks the recovery of these redemptions from ASB Bank Corp. as “subsequent transfers” or “avoided transfers” from BLMIS to Fairfield Sentry, which Fairfield Sentry in turn subsequently transferred to ASB Bank Corp. The Madoff Trustee has filed similar “claw back” actions against numerous other alleged “subsequent transferees” that invested in Fairfield Sentry and its sister entities, which, in turn, invested in and redeemed funds from BLMIS.

There has been significant briefing on issues related to these Madoff Trustee actions, and these cases have been pending for many years. In November 2016, the Bankruptcy Court issued a Memorandum Decision Regarding Claims to Recover Foreign Subsequent Transfers (the Memorandum Decision) holding that the recovery of certain subsequent foreign transfers is barred under the doctrine of comity and/or extraterritoriality, and dismissed the claims brought by the Madoff Trustee against a number of parties, including ASB Bank Corp. In March 2017, the Madoff Trustee filed an appeal (the Appeal) of the Memorandum Decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which reversed the Dismissal Order and remanded the matter to the Bankruptcy Court (the Second Circuit Opinion). In April 2019, the defendant-appellees, including ASB Bank Corp., filed, and the Second Circuit granted, a motion to stay the issuance of the mandate pending the filing of a petition for a writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court. The petition for a writ of certiorari was filed in the United States Supreme Court in August 2019. On or about June 1, 2020, the United States Supreme Court denied the petition for a writ of certiorari. Following the denial of the petition for writ of certiorari, the judgment for dismissal by the Bankruptcy Court was vacated and the matter was remanded back to the Bankruptcy Court. The case now remains pending in the Bankruptcy Court. On March 25, 2022, ASB Bank Corp. filed a Motion to Dismiss the Madoff Complaint. On May 24, 2022, the Madoff Trustee filed its opposition to the Motion to Dismiss. On July 14, 2022, ASB Bank Corp. filed its reply to memorandum of law in further support of its Motion to Dismiss. On November 18, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered its Memorandum Decision, which denied the Motion to Dismiss presented by ASB Bank Corp., and on December 2, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered its corresponding order denying the Motion to Dismiss, which order established February 1, 2023, as the deadline for ASB Bank Corp. to file an answer to the Madoff Complaint. While management believes that ASB Bank Corp. has defenses against the Madoff Trustee’s claims and intends to defend against any action by the Madoff Trustee, in view of recent judicial decisions in cases not involving ASB, certain defenses are no longer available. In this context, Credicorp has constituted a provision that management considers reasonable with the information available today.

Fairfield Litigation. In April 2012, Fairfield Sentry (In Liquidation) and its representative, Kenneth Krys (the Fairfield Liquidator), filed a complaint (the Fairfield Complaint) against ASB (now ASB Bank Corp.) in the Bankruptcy Court (the Fairfield v. ASB Adversary Proceeding). The Fairfield Complaint seeks to recover US$115.2 million in principal amount from ASB Bank Corp., representing the amount of ASB’s Bank Corp.’s redemptions of certain investments in Fairfield Sentry, together with fees, costs, interest, and expenses. These are essentially the same funds that the Madoff Trustee seeks to recover in the Madoff Trustee litigation as described above. After the Fairfield Complaint was filed, the Bankruptcy Court procedurally consolidated the Fairfield V. ASB Bank Corp. Adversary Proceeding with other adversary actions brought by the Fairfield Liquidator against former investors in Fairfield Sentry.

Similar to the Madoff Trustee litigation described above, the Fairfield v. ASB Bank Corp. Adversary Proceeding, and related adversary actions have been pending for many years. In October 2016, the Fairfield Liquidator filed a Motion for Leave to Amend (the Motion for Leave) various complaints, including the Fairfield Complaint. Certain defendants, including ASB Bank Corp., filed a motion to dismiss (the Motion to Dismiss) and a consolidated memorandum of law (i) in opposition to the Motion for Leave and (ii) in support of the Motion to Dismiss. In December 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered a memorandum decision granting in part and denying in part the Motion to Dismiss and the Motion for Leave (the Memorandum Decision). In March 2019, the Fairfield Liquidator submitted a form of a stipulated order dismissing the adversary proceeding against ASB Bank Corp. (the Dismissal Order), as directed by the Bankruptcy Court, but filed notices of appeal, including of the dismissal of the claims asserted against ASB Bank Corp. and other defendants, in May 2019. On or about August 24, 2022, the District Court entered its Opinion and Order, which Opinion and Order affirmed the Bankruptcy Court’s orders, including the Dismissal Order. The Fairfield Liquidator has appealed the District Court’s Opinion and Order to the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The appeal remains pending. Management believes that ASB Bank Corp. has defenses against the Fairfield Liquidator’s claims alleged in the Amended Complaint and the Fairfield Liquidator’s appeal.

(2) Government Investigations

The former Chairman and the current Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Credicorp, in their respective capacities as Chairman of the Board and as a Director of BCP Stand-alone, were summoned as witnesses by Peruvian prosecutors, along with 26 other Peruvian business leaders, to testify in connection with a judicial investigation that is being carried out regarding contributions made to the electoral campaign of a political party in the 2011 Peruvian presidential elections. Our former Chairman testified on November 18, 2019, and our Vice Chairman testified on December 9, 2019. The former Chairman informed prosecutors that in 2010 and 2011 Credicorp made donations totaling US$3.65 million to the political party Fuerza Popular during the 2011 Peruvian presidential campaign (in total amounts of US$1.7 million in 2010 and US$1.95 million in 2011). These contributions were made in coordination with the General Manager of Credicorp at that time. While the amount of these contributions exceeded the limits then permitted under Peruvian electoral law, the law in place at that time provided no sanction for contributors, and instead only for the recipient of the campaign contribution.

The former Chairman also informed prosecutors that in 2016, three subsidiaries of Credicorp (BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and Grupo Pacífico) made donations totaling S/711,000 (approximately US$200,000) to the political party Peruanos Por el Kambio. These contributions were made in compliance both with Peruvian electoral law and with Credicorp’s own political contributions guidelines, adopted in 2015. These guidelines provided details on the procedures for obtaining approval for contributions and outlined the specific required conditions for transparent contributions.

The Peruvian SMV has initiated a sanctioning process against Credicorp, for failing to disclose to the market, in due course, the political campaign contributions in the years 2011 and 2016. The SMV also has initiated a sanctioning process against three subsidiaries of Credicorp (BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and Grupo Pacífico), for failing to disclose to the market, in due course, the political campaign contributions made in connection with the 2016 presidential elections. The SMV notified Credicorp, BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and Grupo Pacífico with first instance Resolutions on these proceedings. The mentioned Resolutions imposed pecuniary sanctions (fines) on Credicorp and the three subsidiaries as a consequence of these sanctioning processes. Credicorp, BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and Grupo Pacífico appealed the Resolutions.

On December 8, 2021, Credicorp informed that the Peruvian SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Provisional Superior Chamber Specialized in Administrative Litigation of the Superior Court of Justice of Lima (the “Court”), pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration Credicorp’s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV’s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by Credicorp mentioned in the prior paragraph.

302

Table of Contents

Under the Resolution, the SMV resolved to sanction Credicorp with two fines. The first fine was 300 Tax Units, (approximately US$270,000) and the second fine was 210 UITs (approximately US$207,375). The fines were imposed in both cases for allegedly having infringed (categorized as “very serious”) (“muy grave” in Spanish) certain provisions of the Peruvian Securities Law. The charges made by the SMV against Credicorp were that the company had affected the transparency of the stock market by not having disclosed relevant information to the market regarding Credicorp's cash contributions to the political party Fuerza Popular during the 2011 Peruvian presidential campaign (first charge) and that the company had affected the transparency of the stock market by not having disclosed relevant information to the market regarding Credicorp’s agreement to make contributions to the political party Peruanos por el Kambio during the 2016 Peruvian presidential campaign (second charge).

Because Credicorp was neither in agreement with the categorization of the facts nor with the sanctions imposed, Credicorp filed an appeal challenging the Resolution. Subsequently, after the expiration of the term to resolve in the appeal (second administrative instance), Credicorp asserted its right to negative administrative silence and to resort to the Judiciary. Notwithstanding, Credicorp proceeded to pay the fines imposed by the SMV, in compliance with Peruvian law.

Thus, since Credicorp’s contentious-administrative claim filed was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to Credicorp, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

On March 4, 2022, Grupo Pacífico was informed that the SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Court, pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration Grupo Pacífico’s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV´s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by Grupo Pacífico mentioned above. Thus, since Grupo Pacífico’s mentioned claim was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to Grupo Pacífico, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

On July 4, 2022, BCP Stand-alone informed that the Peruvian SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Court, pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration BCP Stand-alone’s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV´s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by BCP Stand-alone mentioned above. Thus, since BCP Stand-alone’s mentioned claim was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to BCP Stand-alone, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

On July 5, 2022, Mibanco was informed that the Peruvian SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Court, pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration Mibanco´s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV’s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by Mibanco mentioned above. Thus, since Mibanco´s mentioned claim was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to Mibanco, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

Table of Contents

Credicorp believes that neither the contributions disclosed by our former Chairman and the current Vice Chairman in 2019 nor the related SMV sanctioning processes pose a significant risk of material liability to the Company. Furthermore, Credicorp does not believe that either of the contributions will have material effect on the Company’s business, financial position, or profitability.

On November 11, 2021, Credicorp disclosed that its incoming CEO, Mr. Gianfranco Ferrari de las Casas, informed the company that he was notified of a Prosecutor’s Decision issued by the Corporate Supraprovincial Prosecutor's Office Specialized in Officer Corruption Offenses Special Team – Fourth Court Division (Fiscalía Supraprovincial Corporativa Especializada en Delitos de Corrupción de Funcionarios Equipo Especial – Cuarto Despacho). Through such notice, Mr. Ferrari was informed that he had been included in the preparatory investigation carried out against Mr. Yehude Simon M. and an additional 65 individuals on the grounds of, in his particular case, alleged primary complicity in the alleged crime against the public administration, aggravated collusion, incompatible negotiation or improper use of position and criminal organization detrimental to the Peruvian State, in connection with the financial advisory services provided by BCP Stand-alone to the Olmos Project.

Credicorp has reviewed the performance of the officers of Banco de Crédito del Perú in relation to the financial advisory services provided by the Bank in connection with the Olmos Project and has concluded that the facts under investigation do not give rise to any liability of Banco de Credito del Peru or its officers. Credicorp bases this view on the qualified opinion of external consultants specializing in the matter. Therefore, Credicorp considers that the opening of the aforementioned preparatory investigation will not have any impact on the normal operation of the company, nor will affect the dedication and performance of its officers in undertaking their regular duties.

Regulatory Sanctions

In April 2022, the SBS imposed a fine on Pacífico Seguros in the amount of twenty UIT (approximately US$23,945) for serious infringement related to its actuarial function. The company’s management acknowledged the infringement and adopted all necessary measures to prevent any further occurrence.

Also, in April 2022, the SBS imposed a fine on Mibanco in the amount of twenty UIT (approximately US$23,945) for serious infringement related to one office closure without SBS authorization. The company’s management acknowledged the infringement and adopted all necessary measures to prevent any further occurrence.

Dividend Policy

Under Bermuda law, a dividend may only be declared and paid if the Company is able to (i) pay its liabilities as they become due, and (ii) the realizable value of its assets is not less than the aggregate value of its liabilities, issued share capital and share premium accounts.

Each year, the Company intends to declare and pay dividends in cash of at least 25% of the Company’s consolidated net profits based on the last audited financial accounts. The Board of Directors shall take into consideration the following when deciding whether to distribute dividends:

•

There being dividends from the Company’s subsidiaries;

•

That the declaration and payment of dividends shall not cause the Company to breach any applicable laws or adversely impact on the equity growth requirements of the Company or its subsidiaries;

•

The financial performance of the Company;

•

The overall business and the economic-financial conditions affecting the Company; and

•

Any other factors that the Board may deem relevant.

The Board of Directors may in its sole discretion declare and pay a dividend below 25%, if any of the aforementioned conditions fail to be met. Subject to the foregoing, it is expected that dividend payments are to be made once a year within 90 calendar days of the meeting held by the Board to approve the dividend declaration and payment. No interim dividends are to be paid. This policy has been in force since 2016 and it will continue to be applicable until amended or rescinded by the Board of Directors. For further details about the risk associated with our ability to pay dividends, please refer to “ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION – 3.D Risk Factors – Our ability to pay dividends to shareholders and to pay corporate expenses may be adversely affected by the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us.”

Furthermore, the Board of Directors of the Company, in its session held on December 23, 2021, resolved that, subject to the provisions of Credicorp’s Dividend Policy, the Board expects that Credicorp will declare dividends, if any, each year in the month of April or thereafter once the Company’s subsidiaries have agreed the declaration and date of payment of any dividends in their respective shareholder and board meetings. This decision was made in accordance with Credicorp’s Dividend Policy.

Transactions during both the open trading and the electronic sessions are executed through brokerage firms and stockbrokers on behalf of their clients. Brokers submit their orders in strict accordance with written instructions, following the chronological order in which they were received. The orders specify the type of security ordered or offered as well as the amounts and price of the sale or purchase. In general, share prices are allowed to increase or decrease up to 15% for Peruvian companies, and up to 30% for foreign companies, within a single trading day.

In the first quarter of 2020, at the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic when governments around the world were adopting lockdowns to mitigate the spread of the virus, the BVL General Index fell 30.8% as risk aversion and uncertainty was affecting global financial markets. The BVL is driven largely by movements in the equity markets of the United States and by commodity prices; and during the same period, the S&P 500 index in the US fell 20.2% and copper prices fell 22.2%. The BVL Index reached its lowest price of 13,539 points on April 3, 2020. After that, financial markets began to recover, supported by unprecedented monetary and fiscal stimulus deployed by governments around the world as well as by the development of COVID-19 vaccines. Between its low on April 2020 and mid-February 2021, the BVL index rose 71%, in line with the recovery of the price of copper that increased from USD 2.10 per pound on March 23, 2020 to USD 4.29 per pound on February 25, 2021. In February 2021, new restrictive measures were taken by various governments around the world as a new COVID-19 variant appeared. In Peru, additionally, the first round of the presidential elections took place on April 11, 2021, with Pedro Castillo, left-wing candidate, and Keiko Fujimori, right-wing candidate, advancing to a second round. In the second round on June 6, 2021, Castillo was elected president. As a result, the BVL behaved more independently other financial markets (such as the S&P 500 and copper prices) and fell 33% from its peak in February to its bottom in August 2021. At that point, it started to recover and ended 2021 at 21,111 points, representing an increase of 1.4% compared to year-end 2020.

2022 was a tough year for financial markets. The war between Russia and Ukraine, the global inflationary shock, the COVID-19 zero tolerance stance of China and the simultaneous hiking cycle adopted by most Central Banks in the world drove market sentiment. Besides, Peru was immersed in constant political uncertainty. In the first quarter of 2022, the BVL index benefited from the commodity price rally that drove copper to a record of USD/lb. 4.84. In the second quarter of 2022, the BVL index fell 26%, in line with the S&P 500, as the FED started hiking rates in March 2022. In the second half of 2022, the BVL index gradually recovered as copper prices stabilized and rebounded late in the year when the Chinese authorities announced the end of their restrictive stance against the spread of COVID-19. The BVL index ended 2022 at 21,330 points, a rise of just 1.04% compared to the end of 2021. In this context, emerging markets were also affected by the significant appreciation of the US dollar, especially during the first three quarters of 2022, when it reached its highest value in two decades.

The total amount traded on the BVL was US$3.7 billion in 2022, below the levels of the last three years (US$5.7 billion in 2021, US$5.8 billion in 2020 and US$5.5 billion in 2019). These figures are still far from the record level obtained in 2007, in which trading volume reached US$12.4 billion. The Peruvian stock market capitalization amounted to US$ 141.7 billion in 2022 compared to US$148.5 billion in 2021, US$165.5 billion in 2020 and US$162.0 billion in 2019.

(2) Market Regulation

Peru’s Securities Market Law (Legislative Decree No. 861) addresses matters such as transparency and disclosure, takeovers and corporate actions, capital market instruments and operations, the securities markets and broker-dealers, and risk rating agencies. The SMV, which is a governmental entity attached to the MEF, was given additional responsibilities relating to the supervision, regulation, and development of the securities market, while the BVL and its member firms were given the status of self-regulatory organizations. Additionally, a unified system of guarantees and capital requirements was established for the BVL and its member firms.

The SMV is governed by a five-member board, which includes the Securities Market Superintendent, who presides over the board, and four directors appointed by the executive branch: one proposed by the MEF, one proposed by BCRP, one by SBS and one Independent Director. SMV has broad regulatory powers, which include studying, promoting, and establishing rules for the securities market, supervising its participants, and approving the registration of public offerings of securities.

SMV supervises the securities markets and the dissemination of information to investors. It also (i) governs the operations of the Public Registry of Securities and Brokers, (ii) regulates mutual funds and their management companies, (iii) monitors compliance with accounting regulations by companies under its supervision as well as the accuracy of financial statements and (iv) registers and supervises auditors who provide accounting services to those companies under SMV’s supervision.

On August 22, 1995, the SMV approved regulations governing the public offering of securities in Peru by entities organized outside of Peru and, for the first time, authorized foreign companies to be listed on the BVL. On October 25, 1995, we became the first non-Peruvian company to list our shares on the BVL. For further details, see “ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY – 4.B Business Overview – (6) Supervision and Regulation – 6.2 Subsidiaries – 6.2.1 Peru”.

Pursuant to the Securities Market Law, the BVL must maintain a guarantee fund that is funded by its member firms. The actual contributions to be made by the 24 member firms of the BVL are based on volume traded over the exchange. In addition to the guarantee fund managed by the BVL, each member firm is required to maintain a guarantee for operations carried out outside the exchange in favor of SMV. Such guarantees are generally established through bank guarantees issued by local banks.

Directors

Credicorp’s business is managed and conducted by the Board of Directors, which is fixed by Credicorp’s Bye-laws at nine Directors. For additional information regarding the membership and operation of Credicorp’s Board of Directors, see “ITEM 6. DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES – 6. A Directors and Senior Management” and “– 6. C Board Practices”.

Each Director holds office for a period (the “Election Period”) commencing at the annual general meeting in which the Director was elected and ending at the annual general meeting in the third successive year of his election or until his successor is elected or appointed subject to his office being vacated.

There are no age limit requirements regarding retirement or non-retirement of Directors. Holding shares is not a requirement in order to be appointed as a Director of the Company.

The office of Director shall be vacated if the Director: (i) is removed from office pursuant to Credicorp’s Bye-laws or is prohibited from being a Director by law; (ii) is or becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors generally; (iii) is or becomes of unsound mind or dies; or (iv) resigns his or her office by notice in writing to the Company. At any general meeting, the shareholders may authorize the Board to fill for the remainder of the Election Period any vacancy in their numbers left unfilled at the general meeting. Shareholders in general meeting or the Board shall have the power to appoint any person as a Director to fill a vacancy on the Board for the remainder of the Election Period occurring as a result of the death, disability, disqualification, or resignation of any Director.

A Director may not vote in respect of any contract or proposed contract or arrangement in which such Director is interested or in respect of which such Director has a conflict of interest.

Directors’ remuneration is determined by Credicorp’s shareholders in general meetings. Directors living outside Lima may also be paid all travel, hotel, and other expenses properly incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors, meetings of any committee appointed by the Board of Directors, general meetings of the Company, or any meetings in connection with the business of the Company or their duties as Directors generally.

Any Director, or any Director’s firm, partner, or any Company with whom any Director is associated, may act in a professional capacity for Credicorp, and such Director or such Director’s firm, partner or such Company may be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if such Director were not a Director, provided that a Director or Director’s firm, partner or such Company is not authorized to act as auditor of the Company.

The Board of Directors may exercise all the powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and uncalled share capital, or any part thereof. The Board of Directors may also issue debentures, debenture stock, and other securities whether outright or as security for any debt, liability, or obligation of the Company or any third party.

Common Shares

Credicorp’s Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws provide for its share capital to be a single class of common shares, with a par value of $5.00 per share, subject to any resolution of the shareholders to the contrary. To date, Credicorp has issued 94,382,317 common shares with a par value of US$5.00 per share, each fully paid.

Under Credicorp’s Bye-laws, any holder of Credicorp’s common shares is entitled to one vote per share, such dividends as the Board of Directors may from time to time declare, and the surplus assets of Credicorp in the event of winding-up or dissolution. Unclaimed dividends do not earn interest. Dividends unclaimed for three years after they are declared revert back to the Company, and shareholders do not have any rights to such dividends. For more information regarding Credicorp’s dividend policy and applicable Bermuda law, refer to “ITEM 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION – 8. A Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information (3) Dividend Policy”.

Subject to applicable law, in the event of a winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or for the purpose of a reorganization or otherwise, or upon any distribution of share capital, the holders of our common shares will be entitled to the surplus assets of the Company.

Credicorp can, from time to time, purchase its own shares in accordance with Section 42A of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda. Section 42A of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda provides that a Company cannot purchase its shares if there are reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is, or after the purchase would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due. Shares purchased under Section 42A are treated as cancelled, and the amount of the Company’s issued capital, but not its authorized share capital, is diminished by the nominal value of the cancelled shares.

Under Section 46 of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, where permitted under its memorandum of association and bye-laws, shareholders of a Bermuda company may resolve in a general meeting to reduce the company’s share capital. No company shall reduce the amount of its share capital unless: (i) it publishes a notice in an appointed newspaper not more than 30 and not less than 15 days before the date on which the reduction in share capital is to become effective, stating (a) the amount of share capital as last determined by the company; (b) the amount by which the share capital is to be reduced; and (c) the date on which the reduction will become effective; and (ii) on the date the reduction is to be effected, there are no reasonable grounds for believing that the company is, or after the reduction would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due. Subject to the foregoing, the Company may reduce its share capital in any way, including by (i) extinguishing or reducing the liability on any of its shares in respect of capital not paid up; (ii) with or without extinguishing or reducing liability on any of its shares, cancelling any paid up capital that is lost or unrepresented by available assets; or (iii) with or without extinguishing or reducing liability of any of its shares, and with or without reducing the number of such shares, paying off any paid-up capital that is in excess of the requirements of the Company. Subject to Credicorp’s Bye-laws, when share capital is to be reduced by cancellation of part of a class of shares, the shares to be cancelled must be selected (i) by lot, in such manner as the Directors determine; (ii) as nearly as may be in proportion to the number of shares of the class registered in the name of each shareholder; or (iii) in such other manner as the Directors, with the consent of the majority of shareholders of the share class to be cancelled, determine. When shares are to be cancelled to reduce the Company’s share capital, the shares shall be acquired at the lowest price at which the shares are obtainable, in the opinion of the Directors, but not exceeding an amount, if any, stated in the Bye-laws. Credicorp’s Bye-laws do not state any amount or price at which shares are to be cancelled when undertaking a share capital reduction of this kind. There are no conditions in our Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws governing changes in our share capital that are more stringent than those required under Bermuda law.

312

Table of Contents

The rights of Credicorp’s shareholders can be changed by amendment of Credicorp’s Bye-laws. Amendments, rescissions, or alterations to Credicorp’s Bye-laws generally require approval by a resolution of its Board of Directors and a resolution of the shareholders passed by a majority of the votes cast in accordance with the provisions of the Bye-laws. Amending Bye-laws 4.11 and 4.23 of Credicorp’s Bye-laws, regarding the number of Directors, tenure, election process and filling of vacancies, among other matters, requires affirmative votes of at least two-thirds of the total issued voting shares of the Company. Bye-law amendments may be made at the annual general meeting or at a special general meeting.

Credicorp’s annual general meeting is held each year to consider and adopt resolutions, to receive the report of the auditors and the consolidated financial statements for the last financial year, to elect Directors, to consider fees payable to Directors, to appoint auditors and to consider other matters properly brought before the meeting. At least fourteen days’ notice of an annual general meeting shall be given to each shareholder. Notice of an annual general meeting will state the date, place, and time at which the meeting is to be held, that the election of Directors will take place at the meeting, and as far as practicable, the other business to be conducted at the meeting. At least ten days’ notice of a special general meeting shall be given to each shareholder. Notice of a special general meeting will state the date, time, place, and the general nature of the business to be considered at the meeting. Subject to the provisions of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 and Credicorp’s Bye-laws, any question proposed for the consideration of the shareholders at any general meeting will be decided by the affirmative votes of a majority of the votes cast in accordance with the provisions of Credicorp’s Bye-laws. In the case of a tie, the resolution fails.

Subject to compliance with applicable laws, there are no limitations on the rights to own our securities, or on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on those securities, which are imposed by the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda or by the Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws of Credicorp.

313

Table of Contents

There is no provision of the Company’s Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws that would delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of the Company and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving the Company (or any of its subsidiaries).

Assuming Credicorp remains listed on an appointed stock exchange, there are no Bye-law provisions or provisions of Bermuda law governing the ownership threshold above which ownership of Credicorp shares must be disclosed. Under Peruvian law, any individual or legal entity who acquires, directly or indirectly, 1% or more of the share capital of a Company operating in the financial and insurance systems (or that is engaged in activities that are either associated with or complementary to the purpose of such companies) in a 12-month period, or who obtains a shareholder stake of 3% or more, must provide the SBS with the information that the SBS requests to identify the shareholder’s main economic activities and the structure of its assets. In addition, the acquisition of shares of a Company operating in the financial or insurance system exceeding 10% of the Company’s share capital (or resulting, when aggregated with previous holdings, in the holding of 10% of the Company’s share capital) by a single individual or entity, whether directly or indirectly, require prior authorization from the SBS. In order to acquire more than 10% of the share capital of a legal person domiciled in Peru that holds shares in a financial or insurance company, prior authorization from the SBS is required. If the shareholder is a legal person that is not domiciled in Peru, such as Credicorp, the SBS must be informed if there is a modification in the composition of the shareholders in proportions that exceed 10%, indicating the names of such shareholders.

Under Peruvian securities market regulation, any issuer with shares registered in a centralized exchange, such as Credicorp, must present to the SMV a list of its shareholders who hold more than 0.5% of its capital stock and update the list within the first 15 calendar days of the following month in which a change occurs. The issuer also must update the Securities Market Public Register with information on shareholders holding 4% or more of its share capital following any change.

Under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, holders of more than 5% of our shares are generally required to report their holdings to the SEC on Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G, as applicable. This is an obligation of the shareholder, not of Credicorp Ltd. as the issuer of the shares.

10. C

Material Contracts

As of the date hereof, we have not, nor have our subsidiaries, entered into any material contracts in the immediately preceding two years other than those contracts entered into in the ordinary course of our business.

10. D

Exchange Controls

We rely almost exclusively on dividends from Grupo Crédito S.A., BCP Stand-alone, BCP Bolivia, ASHC, Grupo Pacífico, Credicorp Capital, and our other subsidiaries for the payment of dividends to holders of our common shares. To the extent that our subsidiaries are legally restricted from paying us dividends, our ability to pay dividends on our common shares will be adversely affected.

314

Table of Contents

Although substantially all of the clients of BCP Stand-alone, ASB, and Grupo Pacífico are located in Peru, as of December 31, 2022, approximately 31.6% of BCP Stand-alone’s loan portfolio, 97.0% of ASB’s loan portfolio, and 49.1% of Grupo Pacífico’s written premiums were denominated in US Dollars (29.7%, 97.2% and 53.4%; and 28.6%, 100.0% and 49.0%; in 2021 and 2020, respectively).

Since March 1991, there have been no exchange rate controls in Peru, and all foreign exchange transactions are based on market exchange rates. The Peruvian constitution establishes equal treatment between national and foreign investment in Article 63, and Legislative Decree No. 662 allows foreign holders of equity shares of Peruvian companies to receive and repatriate 100% of the cash dividends distributed by the Company. These investors are allowed to purchase foreign exchange at market exchange rates through any member of the Peruvian banking system.

One circumstance that could lead to depreciation is a decline in Peruvian foreign reserves to inadequate levels. Although the current level of Peru’s foreign reserves (US$ 71.9 billion or 31% of GDP as of December 31, 2022) compares favorably with those of other Latin American countries, there can be no assurance that Peru will be able to maintain adequate foreign reserves levels to meet its foreign currency-denominated obligations. See “Item 4. Information on the Company – 4.B Business Overview – (7) Peruvian Government and Economy”.

We have been designated as a non-resident for Bermuda exchange control purposes under the Bermuda Exchange Control Act 1972 and associated regulations and are able to conduct our day-to-day operations free of Bermuda exchange control formalities. We are able to pay dividends, distribute capital, and open and maintain bank accounts in any foreign currency without reference to the Bermuda Monetary Authority.

Bermuda regulation

As of the date of this report, there is no Bermuda income or profits tax, withholding tax, capital gains tax, capital transfer tax, estate duty, or inheritance tax that we must pay or that our shareholders must pay with respect to their shares. We have obtained assurance from the Minister of Finance of Bermuda under the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966 that, in the event that any legislation is enacted in Bermuda imposing any tax computed on profits or income, or computed on any capital asset, gain or appreciation or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, such tax shall not, until March 31, 2035, be applicable to us or to any of our operations or to our shares, debentures, or other obligations. This assurance, however, does not cover any tax applicable to persons who ordinarily reside in Bermuda or to any taxes that we must pay with respect to real property that we own or lease in Bermuda.

As an exempted company, we are liable to pay in Bermuda an annual government fee based on our authorized share capital and the premium on our issued common shares, which amounted to approximately US$18,670 (Bermuda annual government fee for 2017 and 2018.) However, with effect beginning in 2019, the annual government fee increased to US$19,605.

10.2

Peruvian regulation

On February 15, 2011, the Peruvian government enacted Law No. 29663, which was subsequently amended on July 21, 2011, by Law No. 29757. This law partially modifies the country’s income tax regime by (i) subjecting to taxation in Peru capital gains derived from an indirect transfer of shares issued by a domiciled entity and (ii) introducing more types of income that will qualify as Peruvian source income. Under the law, an indirect transfer of shares issued by a domiciled entity occurs, and is subject to the Peruvian Income Tax (at a 0%, 5% or 30% rate) when the shares of a non-domiciled entity, which in turn owns (directly or indirectly through other entities) shares issued by a domiciled entity, are transferred, provided that both of the following conditions are met:

(1)

During the 12 months prior to the transfer, the fair market value (FMV) of the shares of the domiciled entity owned by the non-domiciled entity equals 50% or more of the FMV of the shares of the non-domiciled entity. There is a rebuttable presumption that this condition is met if the non-domiciled entity is a resident in a tax haven; and

(2)

During any given 12-month period, shares representing 10% or more of the non-domiciled entity’s share capital are transferred.

The Legislative Decree No. 1424 (published on September 13, 2018) established an additional rule according to which if the "total amount" of the domiciled entity’s shares indirectly transferred is equal to or exceeds 40,000 Peruvian Tax Units (approximately US$48 million), an indirect transfer of Peruvian shares would always be deemed to be triggered, regardless of whether either of conditions (1) or (2) above are met. This new rule based on the sales price is in force as of January 1, 2019, jointly with the general rule referred above.

316

Table of Contents

On April 21, 2020, Supreme Decree No. 085-2020-EF established that, for purposes of determining the FMV of the non-domiciled shares and the Peruvian entities, the following methods must be followed:

• Higher listed value: In the case of shares listed on the Stock Exchange, the market value will be the highest listed value.

• Discounted cash flow (DCF): In the case of shares that are not listed on the Stock Exchange, the market value will be the discounted cash flow value in case the entity evidences a predictable horizon of future cash flows or has elements such as licenses, authorizations or intangibles that allows the existence of such cash flows to be anticipated. If the Company has several business units, a projection must be made for each business unit.

The DCF methodology of the Company will be applied if there is no expectation of debt linked to the economic activity or business unit of the Company; otherwise, the DCF methodology of the shareholder will apply.

For the development of the projection, the following will be considered:

(1) The cash flow period should be at least 10 years. If the Company has a shorter duration, the balance of the duration will be considered.

(2) If the Company's cash flow is applied, the discount rate is the weighted average cost of capital, which must consider the opportunity cost of capital and the cost of debt. If the shareholder's cash flow is applied, the opportunity cost of capital must be considered as the discount rate, which includes the minimum profitability expected by the shareholder at market value.

(3) Continuity value, when the Company is expected to receive income for an unspecified period of time or the residual value, as applicable.

In case the domiciled entity directly or indirectly owns shares of another or other domiciled entities and/or non-domiciled entities, the market value of such shares must include the market value of these other companies.

For the determination of the discounted cash flow value to be credited, the taxpayer must have a technical report containing at least the following information: (i) an executive summary; (ii) an analysis of the sector in which the Company operates; (iii) an analysis of the Company; (iv) valuation; and (v) annexes that accredit the results obtained.

•

Equity Participation Value (EPV): If the methods described above are not complied with, the EPV is calculated on the basis of the last audited balance sheet of the issuing Company closed within 90 days prior to the disposal. This is applicable in the case of entities that are under the supervision of the SMV, or entities authorized to perform the same functions in other jurisdictions. If, within 90 days prior to the sale, a reduction in the share capital of the non-resident entity is made, the balance sheet of the non-resident entity will be the one corresponding before the reduction.

317

Table of Contents

•

Residual Method: If the previous methods are not applicable, the EPV will be one of the following:

The EPV shall be the result of dividing the equity value of the entity based on the last balance sheet closed within 90 days prior to the disposal, in accordance with the accounting standards officialized or approved by the competent body of the country, increased by the average monthly active market rate in local currency (TAMN), and by the number of shares issued, provided the following conditions are met:

•

The entity's shares are not listed on a stock exchange or in any centralized trading mechanism, and;

•

The entity is not under the control and supervision of an entity that is entitled to perform the same functions as the SMV under its country of residence.

The EPV will be the appraised value established within the six months prior to the date of the transfer.

The tax rate will apply according to the following table:

Tax rate
Exempt (0%)	Income derived from the transfer of securities in the Lima Stock Exchange will be exempt from the Income Tax until December 31, 2022, as long as they have a stock market presence and; if in a period of 12 months, the tax-payer or its related parties, through a single or successive operation, do not transfer 10% or more of the total shares issued by the respective Company.
5%	If the aforementioned requirements are not met and the transfer of shares is realized through the Lima Stock Exchange by a non-domiciled subject.
30%	If the transfer of shares is not realized through the BVL by a non-domiciled subject, even if the shares are listed in the Lima Stock Exchange.

In addition, the following obligations were imposed on domiciled entities that have “economic relationships” (defined below) with non-domiciled sellers:

•

Reporting to the SUNAT the direct or indirect transfer of its shares, and;

•

To the extent that shares of a domiciled company are being directly or indirectly transferred by a non-domiciled seller, the domiciled company is jointly liable for the income tax that is not paid by the non-domiciled seller when such seller and the Peruvian domiciled company are deemed to be economically related for Peruvian Income Tax purposes for any period of time, within 12 months prior to the transfer. However, the joint income tax liability does not apply when the purchaser or acquirer of the transferred shares is a domiciled individual or entity.

318

Table of Contents

According to Supreme Decree No. 275-2013-EF, enacted on November 7, 2013, which defined the concept of “economic relationships”, a domiciled entity is considered to be economically related to a non-domiciled seller, if, in any given time within the 12-month period prior to the transfer, at least one of the following conditions is met:

The non-domiciled seller owns more than 10% of the equity of the domiciled entity, directly or through a third party;

10% or more of the equity of each of the domiciled entity and the non-domiciled seller is owned by common shareholders;

The domiciled entity and the non-domiciled seller have one or more common Directors, managers, or administrators, with authority over financial, operative, and commercial agreements;

The domiciled entity and the non-domiciled seller prepare joint consolidated financial statements; or

The non-domiciled seller has a dominant influence on the decisions of the administrative areas of the domiciled entity, or vice-versa.

10.3

Chilean Regulation

The Chilean Statutory Income Tax rate to resident legal entities has been 27% under the semi-integrated regime of 2018. Foreign individual or legal resident entities are subject to a 35% dividend withholding tax. This tax applies at the moment of the effective remittance of the dividend and the corporate income tax can be used as a credit. In the case of non-treaty country resident shareholders, the corporate tax credit is limited to 65% of the corporate income tax associated to such dividend. Therefore, in this case, the total tax burden for foreign taxpayers, subject to a 35% tax rate, will be 44.45%. Nonetheless, the “65% limit” does not apply to those investors domiciled or resident in a country with which Chile has a Double Taxation Treaty in force. Additionally, a transitory rule provides that this benefit will also be applicable to those investors who are residents of countries with which Chile has a Double Taxation Treaty subscribed and pending ratification, to the extent that the treaty was signed prior to December 31, 2020. This transitory rule will be in effect until December 31, 2025. The Group is under the Income Tax semi-integrated system.

10.4

Colombian Regulation

The Colombian general corporate income tax rate of 35% remains unchanged (for 2022 and the following years). In addition, a temporary surtax will be applied to financial institutions whose taxable income equal to or exceeds approximately US$1 million. Credicorp Capital Colombia, Credicorp Capital Fiduciaria, and Mibanco Colombia, are now subject to the surtax rate of 5%, applicable from 2022 until 2027. Therefore, the combined income tax rate for financial institutions in Colombia is 40% for 2023 onwards. Without prejudice of the provisions established in tax treaties, distribution of dividends to non-residents will now be subject to a 20% dividend tax (previously was of 10%). If the corresponding profits were not taxed at the level of the distributing company, the corporate income tax rate would be applied over the dividends (35% general rate; however, for financial institutions, this rate could be 40% from 2023 to 2027), and after that, the 20% dividend tax is applied. Foreign portfolio investment is also subject to the 20% withholding tax. However, in the case of previously untaxed corporate profits, instead of applying the general income tax rate, a withholding tax of 25% will be assessed. Corporate profits earned up to December 31, 2016, are not subject to withholding tax on dividends, even though the distribution occurs from and after January 1, 2017. Finally, as of 2023, profits distributed to Colombian companies are also subject to the 10% withholding tax rate (currently at 7.5%). In any case, the tax paid by the Colombian company over the dividends can be transferred to its foreign investors. Therefore, they are entitled to use it as a tax credit against their own taxes when they receive dividends.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

This section describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common shares held by U.S. Shareholders (as defined below) that hold our common shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). This summary is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), applicable regulations of the U.S. Department of the Treasury promulgated thereunder (the Treasury Regulations), IRS rulings and decisions, and judicial decisions thereon and existing interpretations thereof, all in effect on the date of this Annual Report. These authorities may be subject to different interpretations or changes, possibly with retroactive effect, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those summarized below.

We have not sought any ruling from the IRS in respect of the statements made and the conclusions reached in this discussion, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with such statements and conclusions, or that the IRS will not challenge any of the positions taken by us and that such challenge, if any, will not be sustained. A different treatment from that described below could adversely affect the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common shares as set forth in this summary.

This summary does not purport to deal with all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder in light of such holder’s circumstances. In particular, this summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may apply to members of a special class of holders subject to special rules, including:

(1)

dealers in securities or currencies;

(2)

persons subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code;

(3)

regulated investment companies;

(4)

real estate investment companies;

(5)

traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings;

(6)

tax-exempt organizations;

(7)

banks, insurance companies, or any other financial institution;

(8)

persons that actually or constructively own 10% or more, by vote or value, of our common shares;

(9)

persons subject to alternative minimum tax;

320

Table of Contents

(10)

persons that hold our common shares as part of a straddle or a hedging, conversion, or other integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

(11)

persons that purchase or sell common shares as part of a wash sale for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

(12)

partnerships or other pass-through entities (including grantor trusts) and investors therein; or

(13)

persons whose functional currency is not the US Dollar.

If a partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of common shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in that partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners of a partnership holding common shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

Prospective investors of our common shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. and other tax consequences of owning and disposing of the common shares in their particular circumstances.

This summary applies to U.S. Shareholders. As used in this section 10.5, a "U.S. Shareholder" means a beneficial owner of our common shares who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, any of the following:

•

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States,

•

a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation, created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia,

•

an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or

•

a trust if a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more U.S. persons (as defined in the Code and Treasury Regulations) are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

Taxation of Dividends

Subject to the discussion of the “passive foreign investment company” rules below, the gross amount of any distributions of cash or property with respect to our common shares generally will be treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, will be treated first as a return of capital that is applied against and reduces the U.S. Shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the common shares, but not below zero, and thereafter as capital gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the common shares. Because we do not maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, it is expected that distributions generally will be reported to U.S. Shareholders as dividends. The amount of any distribution paid in a foreign currency will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such currency, translated at the spot rate of exchange on the date such distribution is received, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars at that time.

321

Table of Contents

Any dividends that a U.S. Shareholder receives will be includable in such holder’s gross income as ordinary income on the day such holder actually or constructively receives them. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to certain corporate U.S. Shareholders. Dividends paid by us generally will be non-U.S. source income for purposes of the U.S. “foreign tax credit” rules. The rules governing U.S. foreign tax credits are complex and involve the application of rules that depend on the particular circumstances of each U.S. Shareholder. Therefore, each U.S. Shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor with respect to the availability of U.S. foreign tax credits in such U.S. Shareholder’s particular circumstances. Please note that the U.S. Department of the Treasury has issued final and proposed Treasury Regulations that substantially modified the requirements for foreign income taxes to be creditable for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, each U.S. Shareholder is encouraged to reevaluate with his, her or its own tax advisors whether foreign income taxes would be creditable for U.S. federal income tax purposes in light of the recent changes.

Subject to certain limitations, including certain limitations based on taxable income and filing status, and subject to certain minimum holding period requirements, dividends paid to non-corporate U.S. Shareholders, including individuals, may be eligible for a reduced rate of taxation if we are deemed to be a “qualified foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A qualified foreign corporation includes a non-U.S. corporation if (1) its stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States or (2) it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that meets certain requirements. However, a corporation is not a qualified foreign corporation if it is a “passive foreign investment company” (as discussed below) for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year. The common shares are traded on the NYSE, an established securities market. The United States does not have a comprehensive income tax treaty with Bermuda or Peru. Each U.S. Shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor regarding the treatment of dividends and such holder's eligibility for a reduced rate of taxation.

322

Table of Contents

Taxation of Capital Gains

Subject to the discussion of the “passive foreign investment company" rules below, a U.S. Shareholder generally will recognize gain or loss on the sale or exchange of common shares equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or exchange and the U.S. Shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the common shares. Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the common shares were held for more than one year. Gain or loss, if any, recognized by a U.S. Shareholder generally will be treated as U.S.-source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Therefore, U.S. Shareholders may not be able to use any U.S. foreign tax credit arising from any Peruvian tax imposed on the sale or exchange of common shares unless the credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against tax due on other non-U.S. source income. A U.S. Shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in its common shares generally is equal to its purchase price for such shares, adjusted according to U.S. federal income tax principles. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Shareholders generally will be subject to tax at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Each U.S. Shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor regarding the taxation of capital gains and deductibility of capital losses in light of their particular facts and circumstances.

Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC)

A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a passive foreign investment company (PFIC) for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either:

•

75% or more of its gross income for the taxable year is passive income; or

•

on a quarterly average for the taxable year by value (or by adjusted basis, if it is not a publicly traded corporation and it is a so-called controlled foreign corporation (as the definition of that term is modified under the PFIC rules) or it so elects), 50% or more of its assets produce or are held for the production of passive income.

For the purposes of this test, such non-U.S. corporation will be treated as owning its proportionate share of the assets and earning its proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more (by value) of the stock.

We have not determined whether we have previously been a PFIC for any year, or whether we are currently, or will be a PFIC in future years. Furthermore, because this determination is made on an annual basis, no assurance can be given that we will not be classified as a PFIC in future taxable years. If we are classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Shareholder that does not make an election to treat us as a “qualified electing fund” and did not make a “mark-to-market” election, each as described below, will be subject to the following U.S. federal income tax consequences:

“Excess distributions” we make to a U.S. Shareholder will be taxed in a special way. “Excess distributions” are amounts received by a U.S. Shareholder with respect to our common shares in any taxable year that exceed 125% of the average distributions received by the U.S. Shareholder from us in the shorter of either of the three previous years or the U.S. Shareholder’s holding period for such common shares before the current taxable year. Excess distributions must be allocated ratably to each day that a U.S. Shareholder has held our common shares. A U.S. Shareholder must include amounts allocated to the current taxable year and to any non-PFIC years in his or her gross income as ordinary income for that year. A U.S. Shareholder must pay U.S. federal income tax on amounts allocated to each prior taxable PFIC year at the highest marginal tax rate in effect for that year on ordinary income and the tax is subject to an interest charge at the rate applicable to deficiencies for U.S. federal income tax.

323

Table of Contents

The entire amount of gain that is realized by a U.S. Shareholder upon the sale or other disposition of our common shares will also be considered an excess distribution and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax as described above.

A U.S. Shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in shares that were acquired from a U.S. decedent would not receive a step-up to fair market value (FMV) as of the date of the decedent’s death but instead would be equal to the decedent’s adjusted tax basis, if lower than such value.

The special PFIC rules do not apply to a U.S. Shareholder if the U.S. Shareholder makes an election to treat us as a “qualified electing fund” in the first taxable year in which the U.S. Shareholder owns our common shares and if we comply with certain reporting requirements. Instead, a shareholder of a qualified electing fund is required for each taxable year to include in income a pro rata share of the ordinary earnings of the qualified electing fund as ordinary income and a pro rata share of the net capital gain of the qualified electing fund as long-term capital gain, subject to a separate election to defer payment of taxes, which deferral is subject to an interest charge. The election generally is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A U.S. Shareholder makes the election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621, which includes the PFIC annual information statement, to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return. Even if an election is not made, a U.S. Shareholder generally must file a completed IRS Form 8621 in each year that we are a PFIC. U.S. Shareholders should be aware that, for each taxable year, if any, that we are a PFIC, we can provide no assurances that we will satisfy the record keeping requirements of a PFIC, or that we will make available to U.S. Shareholders the information such U.S. Shareholders require to make a “qualified electing fund” election with respect to us.

A U.S. Shareholder who owns PFIC shares that are publicly traded could elect to mark the shares to market annually, recognizing as ordinary income or loss each year an amount equal to the difference as of the close of the taxable year between the FMV of the PFIC shares and the U.S. Shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the PFIC shares. If such a mark-to-market election is made, then the rules set forth above would not apply for periods covered by the election. Assuming that we are trading on the NYSE, our common shares are expected to be treated as publicly traded for purposes of the mark-to-market election and, therefore, such election should be able to be made if we are classified as a PFIC. A mark-to-market election is, however, subject to complex and specific rules and requirements, and U.S. Shareholders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors concerning this election if we are classified as a PFIC.

324

Table of Contents

U.S. Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the adverse tax consequences of owning our common shares if we are, or become, a PFIC, and the possibility of making certain elections designed to lessen those adverse consequences.

Medicare Tax on Net Investment Income

A U.S. Shareholder that is an individual or estate, or a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from such tax, is subject to a 3.8% tax (the "Medicare tax") on the lesser of (i) such holder’s "net investment income" (or "undistributed net investment income" in the case of an estate or trust) for the relevant taxable year and (ii) the excess of such holder’s modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals is between $125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual's circumstances and tax filing status). A U.S. Shareholder’s net investment income generally includes its dividend income and its net gains from the disposition of our common shares unless such dividends or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). A U.S. Shareholder that is an individual, estate or trust is urged to consult his, her or its own tax advisor regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax in respect of its investment in our common shares.

Information with Respect to Foreign Financial Assets

Owners of “specified foreign financial assets” with an aggregate value in excess of $50,000 on the last day of the taxable year, or $75,000 at any time during the taxable year, may be required to file information reports with respect to such assets with their U.S. federal income tax returns. Depending on your circumstances, higher threshold amounts may apply. “Specified foreign financial assets” include any financial accounts maintained by non-U.S. financial institutions, as well as any of the following, but only if they are held for investment and not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions: (i) stocks and securities issued by non-U.S. persons, (ii) financial instruments and contracts that have non-U.S. issuers or counterparties, and (iii) interests in non-U.S. entities. Our common shares may be treated as specified foreign financial assets, and the holders of those shares may be subject to this information reporting regime. Failure to file information reports may subject holders to penalties. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their obligation to file information reports with respect to the common shares.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Dividends paid, if any, on our common shares to a U.S. Shareholder may be subject to information reporting and, unless a U.S. Shareholder either furnishes its taxpayer identification number or otherwise establishes an exemption, may also be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax (currently at a rate of 24%). In addition, information reporting generally will apply to payments of proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition of our common shares by a paying agent, including a broker, within the United States to a U.S. Shareholder. A paying agent within the United States will be required to impose backup withholding on any payments of the proceeds from the sale, exchange redemption or other disposition of the common shares within the United States to a U.S. Shareholder if such U.S. Shareholder fails to furnish its correct taxpayer identification number or otherwise fails to establish an exemption or comply with such backup withholding requirements. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and may be refunded (or credited against the U.S. Shareholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any), provided that certain required information is furnished to the IRS. The information reporting requirements may apply regardless of whether withholding is required.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA)

Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (commonly known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA) impose, under certain circumstances, a 30% U.S. federal withholding tax on certain payments to certain non-U.S. financial institutions that fail to comply with certain information reporting, account identification, withholding, certification and other FATCA-related requirements in respect of their direct and indirect U.S. shareholders and/or U.S. accountholders. To avoid becoming subject to FATCA withholding, we may be required to report information to the Bermuda government or the IRS regarding our U.S. Shareholders. Each U.S. Shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor to obtain a more detailed explanation of FATCA and to learn how FATCA might affect that U.S. Shareholder in his, her or its particular circumstances.

10.6

Double tax treaties

As of January 25, 2021, Peru has tax treaties with the following jurisdictions: Brazil, Canada, Chile, Mexico, Portugal, South Korea, Switzerland, and the member countries of the Andean Pact (Bolivia, Colombia, and Ecuador). Peru has also signed a tax treaty with Japan, which went into effect on January 29, 2021, for information exchange purposes and will be effective on January 1, 2022 for income tax purposes. Peru does not have a tax treaty with Bermuda, and the United States does not have a comprehensive income tax treaty with Bermuda or Peru.

ITEM 11.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT

The following section describes the risks to which Credicorp is exposed and the management tools used to measure and control these. As a result of its financial activities, including lending, borrowing, trading and investing, the Group faces risks which could incur potential losses if adverse changes occur.

The Group’s principal activity consists of receiving deposits from customers, mainly at fixed rates and for different periods, and investing these funds in high-quality assets, using financial instruments (such as derivatives) to cover potential risk factors and to take advantage of market movements on securities, bonds, currencies and interest rates. Additionally, the Group places these deposits with legal entities and individuals, considering the financial costs and expected profitability.

We also seek to raise margins by lending to commercial and retail customers through a range of financial products. These activities involve not only on-balance sheet loans and advances but also off-balance sheet facilities and other commitments, such as letters of credit and performance bonds.

Given the Group’s activities, it has a framework for risk appetite, a cornerstone of its risk management. The risk management processes involve continuous identification, measurement, treatment, and monitoring of potential risk. The Group is exposed, principally, to credit, non-financial risks, market risk, liquidity risk, model risk and insurance technical risk.

11.2 Risk Management Structure

In order to carry out the correct risk management, Credicorp maintains a management structure according to its needs and based on the risks to which it is exposed.

Credicorp Risk Management Structure

Chief Risk Officer (CRO)

The CRO is responsible for implementing policies, procedures, methodologies, and actions to identify, measure, monitor, mitigate, report and control the different types of risks to which the Group is exposed. It also participates in the creation of the strategic plans of the business units to ensure compliance to the risk appetite metrics approved by the Board of Directors. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of each unit’s role in defining and identifying actions regarding risk management.

Likewise, the CRO is responsible of the level of compliance with the risk appetite and the level of exposure assumed by Grupo Crédito S.A. and other Credicorp subsidiaries. Also, it reports the relevant improvements in the comprehensive risk management of Grupo Crédito S.A. and other Credicorp subsidiaries. In addition, it proposes to the Credicorp Risk Committee the risk appetite levels for Credicorp Ltd.

All issues regarding Credicorp’s corporate risk management are under the responsibility of Credicorp's CRO, who is also the CRO of Credicorp Ltd. and Grupo Crédito S.A. So that this responsibility can be adequately fulfilled, it was decided that those three positions should be held by the same person. Credicorp’s CRO reports to the CEO but has full independence regarding risk decisions, which are discussed in Credicorp’s Risk Committee.

Wholesale Banking Risk Division

This Division is responsible for proposing credit policies and criteria for evaluating and managing credit risks assumed by lending to wholesale clients. It evaluates and approves loan proposals and suggests their approval to the higher instances for those that exceed its autonomy. These policies and criteria are established based on policies set by the Board of Directors and in accordance with the laws and regulations applicable. In addition, it measures the evolution of the risk faced by wholesale clients and identifies possible signs of deterioration in their payment capacity, taking actions to mitigate or resolve them.

Retail Banking Risk Division

The Retail Banking Risk Division is responsible for managing the risk profile of the retail portfolio and promoting retail credit risk specific guidelines that are consistent with the overall guidelines and risk policies set by the Board of Directors. Additionally, it participates in defining the products and campaigns aligned with these policies; as well as in the design, optimization and integration of credit assessment tools and income estimation for credit management.

Risk Management Division

The Risk Management Division is responsible for ensuring that risk management directives and policies comply with those established by the Board of Directors. In addition, it is responsible for supervising the process of risk management and coordinating with the Group’s companies involved in the process, promoting standard risk management aligned with best practices.

Non-Financial Risks Division

The Non-Financial Risks Division is responsible for defining a non-financial risks strategy aligned with the objectives and risk appetite set by the Board. This strategy seeks to strengthen the management process, generate synergies, optimize resources and achieve better results among the units responsible for managing non-financial risks. Additionally, in order to achieve its objectives, the Division promotes corporate risk culture, develops risk skills and tools, defines non-financial risk indicators and generates and keep track of strategic projects and initiatives.

331

Table of Contents

The Non-Financial Risks Division is composed of the following units: Non-Financial Risk COE, Non-Financial Risk Tribe and Corporate Security and Cybercrime Operations Center.

Corporate Risk Management Division

The Corporate Risk Division´s scope the risk management of Credicorp’s subsidiaries (not including BCP Stand-alone) and is responsible for managing day-to-day risk under the risk appetite framework approved by our senior management; ensuring that corporate policies and guidelines are applied uniformly between the subsidiaries. This Division also proposes strategic initiatives for better risk management, proposes criteria and methodologies to facilitate the process of risk management and submits risk management reports to the Corporate CRO and the Corporate Risk Committees.

11.3 Risk Appetite

To manage the risks to which it is exposed, Credicorp uses different guidelines. This allows Credicorp to maintain adequate risk levels to generate value for the organization and investors.

Risk Appetite

The Board of Directors annually approves the risk appetite framework defining the maximum level of risk that the organization is willing to tolerate, as it seeks to attain its strategic and financial objectives. In order to ensure consistency with the Group's corporate risk vision, the Board of Directors, through the corporate Risk Committee, has the function of reviewing and approving the risk appetite of each subsidiary, considering its business model. This risk appetite framework is based on "core" and "specific" metrics:

•

Core metrics: are intended to preserve the organization’s strategic pillars, defined as solvency, liquidity, profit and growth, income stability, balance sheet structure and cybersecurity risk.

•

Specific metrics: are intended to monitor on a qualitative and quantitative basis the various risks to which every company of the Group is exposed, as well as defining a tolerance threshold of each of those risks, so that the risk profile set by the Board of Directors is preserved and any risk concentration is anticipated on a more granular basis.

Risk appetite is measured based on the following guidelines:

(1)

A risk appetite statement establishes general principles and the qualitative declarations that complement the risk strategy.

(2)

A metric scorecard is used to define the levels of risk exposure in the different strategic pillars.

332

Table of Contents

(3)

Risk limits allow control over the risk-taking process within the tolerance threshold established by the Board. Limits also provide accountability for the risk-taking process and define guidelines regarding the target risk profile.

(4)

A governance scheme seeks to guarantee compliance to the framework through different roles and responsibilities assigned to the units involved.

(5)

The risk appetite is integrated in the processes of strategic and capital guidelines, as well as in the definition of the budget exercise, facilitating the strategic decision-making process of the organization.

During 2022, the Board decided to end the temporary modifications to the Group’s risk appetite approach, which were implemented in 2020 to facilitate crisis management for business and risk units. This return to normality took place in a context of stronger financial results observed on the risk appetite scorecard. Additionally, we improved the monitoring of cybersecurity and technological obsolescence cascading down these metrics into the business units’ risk appetite scorecard.

11.4 Managed Risks

Credicorp's governance and risk management seek to adequately manage the risks to which we are exposed as an organization.

333

Table of Contents

a) Credit Risk

The Group is exposed to credit risk, which is the probability of suffering losses caused by debtors or counterparties failing to comply with payment obligations in on or off the balance sheet.

Credit risk is the most important risk affecting the Group’s business due to relevance of the Universal Banking and Microfinance LoB and its exposure to this type of risk; therefore, Management carefully manages its exposure to credit risk. Credit risk exposures arise principally from lending activities that lead to direct loans, though they also result from investment activities. There is also credit risk in off-balance sheet financial instruments, such as contingent credits (indirect loans), which expose Credicorp to risks similar to direct loans. Likewise, credit risk can also arise from derivative financial instruments as counterparty risk in those derivatives that currently show positive fair values.

Credit risk levels are defined based on risk exposure limits, which are frequently monitored. Risk exposure limits are established in relation to one borrower or group of borrowers, geography, and industry segments. Furthermore, the risk limits by product, industry sector and geographical area are approved by the Risk Committee.

Credit Risk Measurement

All exposures to credit risk (direct or indirect) are mitigated by the Group’s control processes and policies. Exposure to credit risk is managed through regular analysis of the ability of debtors and potential debtors to meet interest and principal repayment obligations and changes in the credit limits as appropriate.

As part of managing credit risk, provisions for impairment of its portfolio are assigned as of the date of the statement of financial position.

Provisions for loan losses

In accordance with IFRS9 standard, all the financial assets classified or designated as an amortized cost, debt instruments classified as investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, and indirect loans presented in off-balance accounts are subject to an impairment evaluation.

Measurement of expected credit losses

Measurement of expected credit losses is mainly based on three parameters: probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD), and exposure at default (EAD), discounted at the reporting date using the effective interest rate. The estimates, pursuant to IFRS9 parameters, consider not only past due information, but also all relevant credit information, including actual conditions and expected macroeconomic effects in three scenarios (base, optimistic and pessimistic).

334

Table of Contents

The definitions of the three parameters are as follows:

•

Probability of Default (PD): This is a measurement assigned internally to customers and is designed to estimate their probability of default within a specific time horizon. This measurement is obtained through three main components: (i) the observed credit risk of the portfolio, (ii) the macroeconomic conditions of the main countries where Credicorp operates, and (iii) the individual credit risk of each loan, which is measured through scoring and rating tools. The definition of default in IFRS9 is consistent with the one used for internal credit risk management purposes, as follows:

In the case of retail products, clients are in default if (i) at a specific moment, they are 60 or more days past due, except for mortgages, for which we allow 120 days; or (ii) if they have operations in one of the following situations: refinanced, restructured, pre-judicial, judicial or write off.

In wholesale banking, clients are in default if (i) they pass to Wholesale Collections; (ii) they have an internal classification of deficient with recurrence, doubtful or loss; (iii) they have operations in refinanced, restructured, pre-judicial, judicial or write off; or (iv) they have significant qualitative signs of impairment. For clients in default with significant exposure, the Risk Management Division makes a specific analysis for each one of them to determine the expected credit loss, considering the following criteria (among others): (i) the knowledge of the specific situation of the client, (ii) the collaterals and guarantees, (iii) the available financial information, (iv) the actual condition and perspective of the sector in which the client operates.

•

Loss Given Default (LGD): This is a measurement that estimates the severity of the loss that would be incurred at the time of the default. It is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows owed and those that the lender would expect to receive, even after the liquidation of the guarantees (for example: deposits or the equivalent, commodity warrants, immovable properties, ships, machinery and equipment). LGD also considers all the costs incurred during the recovery process.

It is important to mention that when the Group writes off a position, it adjusts the LGD to 100% to add the allowance necessary to reach the required level, in accordance with our internal policy of write-offs, in which Credicorp’s subsidiaries do not have reasonable expectations of recovering the financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof.

•

Exposure at Default (EAD): This is a measurement that estimates the exposure at the time that the customer goes into default, considering changes in future exposure, for example, in the case of prepayments and/or greater utilization of unused lines.

Provisions for credit losses are measured on each reporting date following a three-stage model of expected credit losses based on the degree of a financial asset’s credit impairment:

(1)

Stage 1: For financial assets with credit risk that has not increased significantly since their initial recognition, a reserve is recognized for losses equivalent to the credit losses expected to occur from defaults in the following 12 months. For those instruments with a maturity of less than 12 months, a probability of default corresponding to the remaining term until maturity is used.

335

Table of Contents

(2)

Stage 2: For financial assets that have presented a significant increase in credit risk since their initial recognition, but are not considered impaired, a reserve is recognized for losses equivalent to the credit losses expected to occur during the remaining life of the asset.

The definition of “significant increase in credit risk” used on the reporting date compared with the origination date considers the following criteria:

•

Whether an account has been more than 30 days in arrears.

•

Absolute and relative risk thresholds have been assigned by portfolio and risk level, which depend on the credit risk of the subject instrument on the reporting date and the origination date. For example, less risky PD assets have a broad threshold to move in without migrating to stage 2, in comparison to risky PD assets for which a small increase in PD can force them to migrate to stage 2.

•

Whether follow-up systems, alerts and monitoring of risk portfolios are integrated, as established by the current risk policy in the Wholesale and Retail Banking segments.

•

Alignment criteria are applied to clients that have more than 20% of their position in stage 2. All the rest of their assets in stage 1 get automatically classified as stage 2.

(3)

Stage 3: For financial assets classified as defaults, with objective evidence of impairment on the reporting date, a provision for these assets reflects the expected credit losses during the residual life of the assets. Alignment criteria are also applied at this stage.

The fundamental difference in the measurement of expected credit losses between stage 1 and stage 2 is the PD horizon. The estimates for stage 1 use a 12-month time horizon, while the estimates for stage 2 calculate the expected credit loss based on the remaining life of the asset and consider the effect of the significant increase in credit risk. Finally, estimates for stage 3 are based on a “best estimate” approach, according to the collection process of each asset.

For portfolios that are not material, the Group extrapolates the expected credit loss ratio of portfolios with comparable characteristics.

In 2022, the main methodological calibrations made in the group’s internal credit risk models were as follows:

•

PD models: in accordance with our internal governance scheme, we continued monitoring the performance of PD models and implementing the necessary calibrations to maintain an appropriate measurement of our loan portfolio’s credit risk.

336

Table of Contents

•

LGD models: We holistically calibrated this parameter for consumer and SME loans in order to maintain an appropriate measurement of our loan portfolio’s estimated loss at the time of default. In 2022, this calibration included updates to recovery data, methodological assumptions and certain revisions to better reflect the effects of collateral of mortgage-backed retail banking loans at default on estimation of the recovery rate.

The macroeconomic projections were updated as explained in the following paragraphs.

The Group’s expected credit losses are a weighted estimate of three macroeconomic scenarios: base, optimistic and pessimistic; which are based on macroeconomic projections provided by the internal team of economic research and approved by senior management; these projections are made for the main countries in which Credicorp operates. In each scenario, the Group considers a wide variety of prospective information as economic inputs, including the growth of the GDP, the inflation rate and the exchange rate.

The macroeconomic scenarios consider the fact that Peru is a small and open economy, dependent on the international environment; with about 60.0% of GDP growth volatility explained by external factors. These external factors include Peru’s terms of trade, growth of Peru’s main trade partners, and external interest rates. Information on each of these factors is collected to project each scenario for the next three years.

The aforementioned variables are then incorporated into economic models for the Peruvian economy along with local variables (fiscal and monetary). Two types of models can be distinguished: (i) the structural forecasting model, and (ii) the financial programming model. The first is a stochastic dynamic general equilibrium model constructed with expectations. The second is constructed based on the main identities of national accounts according to the financial programming methodology designed by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and a set of econometric models.

Through this process, Credicorp obtains figures for GDP growth, inflation, exchange rate and other variables for the years 2021, 2022 and 2023.

We estimate that Peru’s GDP will grow approximately between 1.8% and 2.2% in 2023 due to:

•

Lower global growth;

•

The lagged effect on activity as a result of monetary tightening (increase this year in interest rates in dollars and soles by the Central Banks);

•

Cumulative inflation from December 2021 to December 2023 of approximately 20 percent that has eroded consumer purchasing power;

•

Decreased public investment by subnational authorities;

•

Deterioration of private investment in the absence of large new projects and weak business expectations; and

337

Table of Contents

•

Exhaustion of the post–COVID-19 rebound effect (other than for international inbound tourism).

For 2022, probabilities of 50.0%, 25.0% and 25.0% were considered for the base, optimistic and pessimistic scenarios respectively. As a result, we estimated our provision based on an expected value of the three GDP projections, that gave us a growth of around 2.3% for 2022.

The probabilities assigned to each scenario and projection year are validated by fan chart analysis, which uses a probability function to identify and analyze:

•

The central tendency of the projections.

•

The dispersion that is expected around this value.

•

The values that are higher or lower than the central value that are more or less probable.

The following table provides a comparison of the reported expected credit loss for Credicorp’s loan portfolio and the expected credit loss under the three scenarios:

At December 31,2022	Optimistic Scenario	Base Case Scenario	Pessimistic Scenario	Reported ECL under IFRS9
(in thousands of Soles)
Total Loans	8,457,825	8,517,295	8,631,531	8,530,986

For further information about the IFRS9 measurement of the expected credit loss, see Note 3(i) to the consolidated financial statements.

ESG Risks Management

Credicorp manages ESG topics by focusing on the incorporation of factors to mitigate risks, preserve value and generate it in its loan books and investment portfolios. Below are the 2022 achievements related to the scope of the ESG Risk Team from the different fronts:

Environmental Taxonomy

•

The BCP Environmental Taxonomy was approved for 12 economic sectors and 3 transversal sectors (Energy Efficiency, Circular Economy, and Water Management and Sanitation).

•

The Sustainable Operations Committee was created for labeling and referral to special funding.

338

Table of Contents

•

The Wholesale Banking team was trained in the eligibility criteria of the BCP Environmental Taxonomy and related toolkits were implemented for use by senior and middle managers. This was done through 14 training sessions for Business and Corporate Banking, based on the impact on their portfolios, finally training 200 employees.

Appetite

•

The list of exclusions with an ESG focus was updated and approved and its implementation within the Credit Process and in the analysis of the BCP Treasury started, updating the impacting credit policies. The exclusion list was approved in corporate risk forums that include members of the Board.

•

Based on exposure variables and environmental impact, we employ a qualitative approach which will allow us to know in-depth the makeup of the Wholesale Banking portfolio from an ESG perspective. This approach will encourage placements in sectors with positive environmental impact such as real estate, energy, cement, steel, fisheries, textiles and agriculture, which are aligned to BCP Environmental Taxonomy eligibility criteria.

Organization, Governance and Culture

•

ESG Governance was integrated into existing forums (investment, credit and risk committees) for decision-making and for the definition of roles related to ESG issues.

•

Training was carried out among high-level of management and employees in the Risk and Business teams regarding issues related to ESG risk management.

Identification, Evaluation and Treatment

The main environmental, social and governance risks for our financial activities were prioritized through a multidisciplinary evaluation, which included our Risk and Business units, specialized consulting, conversations with leading banks in the sector, review of external sources (for example, MSCI, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board and, IFC) and internal sources (through current Environmental Questionnaires) and dialogues with relevant clients of different sectors.

•

The 10 sectors with the greatest materiality (and climate impact) and the most relevant ESG risks for each sector were identified. The sectors identified were Hydrocarbons, Energy, Fishing, Mining, Agriculture, Construction Materials, Transportation, Textiles, Construction, and Real Estate. They represent approximately 35% of the total exposure of the wholesale portfolio. The wholesale portfolio is diversified (made up of more than 30 sectors) and a monthly control is carried out on the established limits, which is reported to the respective risk instances, reaching the BCP Risk Committee.

•

The environmental risks identified were classified as physical, transition and anthropic risks.

339

Table of Contents

•

Until 2021, there were questionnaires for 4 sectors. In 2022, a proposal for 10 ESG questionnaires was developed, complementing the 4 already existing questionnaires. The proposed questionnaires, which finance clients must answer annually, are based on the indicated sectorial prioritization, including questions related to environmental, social and governance aspects.

•

The report of the independent appraisers with respect to BCP’s guarantees was enhanced through inclusion of questions on environmental and social variables.

For the BCP Treasury investment portfolio, methodologies have been adapted to include ESG factors in issuer analysis and decision-making.

Likewise, in our Retail operations, for BCP (Small and Medium Enterprises, Real Estate, Mortgage, Vehicle) and Mi Banco in the scope of the ESG Risk team began sharing best practices for the integration of ESG factors in each of the mentioned business units.

On the investment business front, after defining the aspirations of the participating subsidiaries, work plans were established for each of them, seeking to achieve corporate alignment in the different approaches to ESG risk management, while recognizing that the participating subsidiaries are at different starting points.

During 2022, of ESG aspects have been integrated in the strategies of each subsidiary, which has resulted in the following achievements:

•

Approval and alignment to Credicorp's corporate exclusions, for both financing and investments. The credit policies for financing have been adapted to include the new definition of excluded activities.

•

Integration of ESG governance principles in the current forums (investment, credit, risk committees) for decision-making and for the definition of roles related to ESG issues in the three lines of defense of each subsidiary: business, risk and audit.

•

Responsible Investment Policies were developed and published for each of the following subsidiaries: Credicorp Capital, Prima AFP and Pacífico Seguros and Sustainability Reports, which integrate ESG aspects in the evaluation of assets and Climate Change Policy, were implemented for Prima AFP.

•

Creation of methodologies to incorporate ESG factors in issuer analysis and decision making.

•

Training for directors, senior managers and employees of the financing and investment areas in the risk and business teams regarding ESG issues.

b) Non-Financial Risk

The Non-Financial Risks Division is composed of the following units: (i) Non-Financial Risk CoE, (ii) Non-Financial Risk Tribe, and (iii) Corporate Security and Cybercrime Operations Center.

340

Table of Contents

Non-Financial Risk CoE - Operational Risk

Operational risk is the possibility of the occurrence of losses arising from inadequate processes, human error, failure of IT, relations with third parties or external events. Operational risks are tied to internal fraud, external fraud, labor relations, job security, relations with customers, business products and practices, damages to material assets, business and systems interruption, and failures in process execution, delivery, and management of processes. Operational risks exclude strategic and reputational risks (with the exception of companies under Colombian regulations, under which reputational risk is included in operational risk). Operational risks can lead to financial losses and have legal or regulatory consequences.

In order to develop an efficient risk culture, the Group records operational risks and their respective process controls. The Risk Map, which is a document that lists all the risks that could affect the organization and their characteristics, permits their monitoring, prioritization and proposed treatment. The Group also carries out an active cybersecurity and fraud prevention management program, which is aligned with the best international practices.

Moreover, the business continuity management system enables the establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving of business continuity based on best practices and regulatory requirements. The Group implements recovery strategies for the resources that support important products and services, which are periodically tested to measure the effectiveness of such strategies. Information security management is carried out through a systematic process, which is documented and known by the entire organization, pursuant to best practices and regulatory requirements. The Group designs and develops the guidelines described in the policies and procedures to have strategies for the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of the information of assets of the organization. To manage operational risk, cybersecurity, fraud prevention and business continuity, corporate guidelines are used, and methodologies and best practices are shared among the Group's companies.

Finally, in the event of the materialization of operational risks, the Group maintains a diverse portfolio with non-financial risk transfer options, mainly through its contracted insurance policies. These policies cover losses arising from fraud, civil and professional liability, cyber risks, and damage to physical assets, among other things. The coverage needs of key areas and new emerging risks are constantly being analyzed, leading to modifications to the existing policies and the incorporation of new insurances, taking into account the Group’s risk appetite and the expected and unexpected levels of our losses. This practice allows us to optimize the Group's insured risk profile.

Cybersecurity

Credicorp focuses on the most efficient strategies to reduce exposure to cybersecurity risk and, thereby, meet the Group's risk appetite. We are aware that incidents of cybersecurity in the financial sector have grown exponentially in terms of frequency and resulting damage to the reputations of affected organizations. Our clients’ trust is fundamental to our business; and as such, we prioritize strengthening our cybersecurity infrastructure and address this strategic front in all of our lines of business. Credicorp applies different levels of controls to the different exposed areas and companies. To this end, it maintains an investment program, which allows it to have the technologies and processes necessary to keep the Group's operations and assets safe.

Value creation at companies and effective digitalization go hand-in-hand. As part of this digital transformation, cybersecurity has become a critical enabler to ensure business continuity, resilience, and data privacy. We have made cybersecurity-related changes to how we work to contemplate long-term remote or hybrid work models. This is particularly challenging in that it entails both protecting security and providing employees with efficient access to their applications and work tools.

As part of cybersecurity management, the Group has lines of action to mitigate risks, as well as implementation priorities and improvements that take into account the different realities of its companies. These lines of action include:

•

Cybersecurity strategy, which is constantly reviewed in light of global developments, as well as applicable, standards, frameworks and regulations, in order to guarantee business continuity, resilience and data privacy. Given its importance, cybersecurity at Credicorp involves the entire organization, both at the corporate level and at the subsidiary level; and we have implemented strategies, policies, and guidelines standardizing the levels of compliance with cybersecurity controls in each of the Group's companies.

•

Adoption of NIST 800-53 and the Secure Controls Framework (SCF) as coverage frameworks, as well as the FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool, ISO 27002, NIST CSF and CSA, among other tools and frameworks, which allow cybersecurity controls to be adapted for each of the Group companies.

•

Credicorp has developed a set of information security and cybersecurity policies for risk management and the protection of information, personal data and technological assets. Our Information Security Policy provides a reference framework to guide management of Credicorp’s information assets. The scope of this policy applies to both the group’s employees and third-party providers with access to confidential information.

•

An awareness program, including constant training that generates a culture of cybersecurity consciousness in all the Group's companies. We make sure that our employees are prepared and committed to cybersecurity to ensure that the measures, processes and technologies of the Cybersecurity Program are applied effectively.

•

Cybersecurity indicators, to ensure alignment between the operations and business strategies of group companies.

•

Governance of third parties, to ensure adherence to and compliance with the Group's policies by third parties.

•

The implementation of security technologies, to protect all of the Group’s business processes.

Corporate Security and Cybernetic Crime

The Corporate Security and Cybercrime Operations Center is responsible for detecting and responding to fraud incidents and physical security. These tasks are carried out through teams specialized in transactional monitoring, cybercrime investigations, physical security, electronic security, disaster risk management and strategic intelligence activity. These capabilities are designed to safeguard the security of the collaborators, clients, suppliers and assets of the organization. Finally, this Operations Center has established a solid relationship with stakeholders and financial institutions in the region.

Management has in place an integral security scheme for Credicorp which includes variables for detection, response and recovery. The implemented strategy consists of training for clients (both internal and external), inspections at headquarters and agencies, generation of early alerts for possible risks, real-time monitoring and continuous reporting, specialized forensic investigation and cyber intelligence. Within this, state-of-the-art technological tools for transactional monitoring, video surveillance and advanced risk profile analysis models have been implemented for the detection of internal fraud.

c) Market and Liquidity Risk

Market Risk

The Group is exposed to market risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risks arise from open positions in interest rates, currency, commodities and equity products; all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements and changes in the level of volatility of prices such as interest rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. Due to the nature of the Group’s current activities, commodity price risk has not been approved; thus, this type of instrument is not traded.

1. Market Risk Measurements

The Group separates exposures to market risk into two groups: (i) risks arising from value fluctuation of trading portfolios recognized at fair value through profit or loss, due to movements of market rates or prices (Trading Book) and (ii) risks arising from changes in the structural positions of non-trading portfolios, due to movements of the interest rates, prices and foreign exchange ratios (Banking Book). Most of the structural portfolios are recorded at amortized cost and at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income.

Table of Contents

The risks that trading portfolios (Trading book) face are managed through Value at Risk (VaR) historical simulation techniques; while non-trading portfolios (Banking Book) are monitored using rate sensitivity metrics, which are a part of ALM.

Trading Book

The trading book is characterized by liquid positions in stocks, bonds, foreign currencies and derivatives, arising from transactions in which the Group acts as counterparty with the customers or with the market. This portfolio includes investments and derivatives classified by Management as held for trading.

Value at Risk (VaR)

Based on a number of assumptions about changes in market conditions, we apply VaR to our trading portfolios to estimate the market risk of our positions and our maximum losses.

Daily calculation of VaR is a statistically-based estimate of the potential loss on our current portfolio caused by adverse market movements.

VaR expresses the “maximum” amount the Group might lose, but only to a certain level of confidence (99%). There is therefore a specified statistical probability (1%) that actual loss could be greater than the VaR estimate.

The time period used to calculate VaR is one day. However, because the VaR model assumes a ten-day “holding period” within which positions can be closed, the one-day VaR is amplified to a ten-day time frame and calculated by multiplying the one-day VaR by the square root of 10. This adjustment is exact only if the changes in the portfolio in the following days have a normal distribution identical and independent; otherwise, the 10-day VaR is an approximation.

VaR limits and assumptions are set based on the risk appetite and trading strategy of each subsidiary. The assessment of past movements is based on historical one-year data and 133 market risk factors, which are comprised as follows: 36 market curves, 71 stock prices, 22 mutual funds values and 4 volatility series. The Group applies these historical changes into rates to its current positions (a method known as historical simulation). Management believes that the market risk factors incorporated into its VaR model are adequate to measure the market risk to which the Group’s trading book is exposed.

The use of this approach does not prevent losses outside of these limits in the event of more significant market movements. Losses exceeding the VaR figure should occur, on average under normal market conditions, not more than once every hundred days. VaR limits have been established to control and keep track of our risks taken. These risks arise from the size of our positions and/or the volatility of the risk factors embedded in each financial instrument. Regular reports are prepared for the Treasury and ALM Risk Committee, our risk management committees and our senior officers.

344

Table of Contents

VaR results are used to generate economic capital estimates by market risk, which are periodically monitored and are part of the overall risk appetite of each subsidiary. Furthermore, Credicorp has internal appetite risk limits for the trading book which are monitored and reported to the Credicorp Market Risk Committee. In VaR calculations, the foreign exchange effect is not included and as such the calculation is measured assuming a constant exchange rate. For further information, see “ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT RISK MANAGEMENT – (13) Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk”.

During 2022, Credicorp’s VaR increased due to higher interest rate risk resulting from greater exposure to fixed-income assets in the Colombian market. The VaR remains contained within the limits of the risk appetite established by the Group's Risk Management and its subsidiaries.

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, our VaR by risk type were as follows:

	2020			2021			2022
	in thousands of Soles
Interest rate risk		163,981			35,721			74,343
Price risk		6,529			4,637			5,219
Volatility risk ⁽¹⁾		708			2,662			2,032
Diversification effect		(857	)		(4,916	)		(7,347	)
Consolidated VaR by risk type ⁽²⁾		170,361			38,104			74,247

(1)	Volatility risk

(2)	Amplified to the holding period, adjusted by a 10-days period of liquidation.

In VaR calculation, financial instruments from the trading book were taken.

On the other hand, the instruments recorded as fair values through profit or loss, which are not part of the selling business model are considered as part of the sensitivity analysis of rates and market prices in the next section (11.11). See the chart of sensitivity of earnings at risk, net economic value and price sensitivity.

The information disclosed in these charts addresses the VaR calculation for the entire consolidated Group. However, minimum, maximum and average VaR calculations are estimated only for BCP Stand-alone’s trading book. The reason for this is that, although there is a daily VaR calculation for all subsidiaries with trading book positions, the entire Group is consolidated once a month in order to calculate a VaR for reporting purposes and to monitor the economic capital limit. Therefore, since there is not a sufficient sample for the Group, minimum, maximum and average VaR are calculated only for the BCP Stand-alone subsidiary. Nonetheless, the Company believes it is relevant information considering that BCP Stand-alone’s trading risk is close to the total trading risk of the Group’s portfolio.

345

Table of Contents

For the years ending on December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, BCP Stand-alone’s VaR statistics were as follows:

	2020		2021		2022
	in thousands of Soles
Average daily		36,949		22,839		22,096
Highest		114,59		46,435		37,025
Lowest		1,659		12,045		11,506

Backtesting

Backtesting is performed on the trading book to verify the predictive power of the VaR calculations. Backtesting compares results of the positions considered for the calculation of VaR and the calculation of the VaR from the previous day. Backtesting exceptions occur when real losses exceed the estimated VaR for the previous day. In order for a backtesting analysis to be considered valid, it should be based on a minimum of 252 observations. Every month, backtesting exceptions are analyzed and reports are prepared to explain the results. These reports are presented to the Treasury and ALM Risk Committee and our Senior Officers. Backtesting is estimated only for BCP Stand-alone’s trading book, since it should be based on a minimum of 252 observations and the Group’s VaR is consolidated only once a month for reporting purposes and to monitor the Group’s economic capital limit.

VaR Backtesting – VaR (1-Day, 99% in millions of Soles) – 2022:

The backtesting analysis uses the Kupiec “proportion of failures” test to determine if the number of exceptions is statistically different from the one expected by the VaR confidence level. Since the test uses the last 252 observations and a 99% VaR confidence level, the model will indicate an underestimation of the probability of large losses from the sixth exception, unless a fitting factor is applied to the VaR to correct the model underestimation.

346

Table of Contents

During 2022, BCP Stand-alone did not record any backtesting exceptions. According to the selected test, we believe that the VaR model is statistically correct.

Stress test

A stress test is used to calculate the maximum loss that the Group incurs in light of daily shocks to the market risk factors from March 18, 2008, until the effective date of the stress test. The maximum loss is considered the outcome for the stress test.

The methodology for the stress test assumes a certain “holding period” until positions can be closed (1 - 10 days). The time period used to calculate the losses is one day; however, the final figures are amplified to a 10-day time period and the final calculation is determined by multiplying the one-day losses times by the square root of 10. This adjustment will be exact only if the changes in the portfolio in the following days follow a normal distribution that is identical and independent; otherwise, the worst loss of the ten-day period will be an approximation.

The results of our stress test as of December 31, 2020, 2021, 2022, by risk type, were as follows:

	2020			2021			2022
	in thousands of Soles
Interest rate risk		163,981			35,721			74,343
Price risk		6,529			4,637			5,219
Volatility risk ⁽¹⁾		708			2,662			2,032
Diversification effect		(857	)		(4,916	)		(7,347	)
Consolidated VaR by risk type		170,361			38,104			74,247

(1)	Volatility risk is the potential loss that result from fluctuations in option implied volatilities

Given the possibility of any scenario of local or international uncertainty, continuous evaluations of stress test scenarios were carried out in order to anticipate potential losses for the Group and generate action plans to mitigate losses. Additionally, we reviewed the current models and methodologies was carried out to ensure that volatility was included in the market risk indicators and valuations of the instruments.

Banking Book

The management of risks associated with long-term and structural positions is called ALM. Non-trading portfolios, which comprise the banking book, are exposed to different sensitivities that can deteriorate the value of the Group’s assets relative to its liabilities and hence can reduce the Group’s net worth. Management of the Banking Book includes management of interest rates and the analysis of the repricing GAP.

Interest Rate Risk

The ALM-related interest rate risk arises from eventual changes in interest rates that may adversely affect the expected gains (risk gains) or market value of financial assets and liabilities reported on the statement of financial position (net economic value). The Group assumes the exposure to the interest rate risk that may affect their fair value as well as the cash flow risk of future assets and liabilities.

347

Table of Contents

The Risk Committee sets the guidelines regarding the level of unmatched repricing of interest rates that can be tolerated, which is periodically monthly monitored by our ALCO.

Corporate policies include guidelines for the management of the Group’s exposure to the interest rate risk. These guidelines are implemented considering the features of each segment of business in which the Group entities operate.

In this regard, Group companies that are exposed to the interest rate risk are those in which earnings are based on interest, such as credits, investments and technical reserves. Interest rate risk management at BCP Stand-alone, BCP Bolivia, Mibanco, ASB, Grupo Pacífico and Mibanco Colombia is carried out by performing a repricing gap analysis, sensitivity analysis of the financial margin (EAR) and sensitivity analysis of the net economic value (EVE). These calculations consider different rate shocks in stress scenarios.

Repricing Gap- Analysis

Repricing gap analysis identifies the term structure of interest rate mismatches within the Group’s balance and out of balance assets and liabilities. Different time bucket schemes may be used in the report. Through this analysis, Management can identify the time period in which interest rate variations may have potential impacts.

The tables below provide information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to interest rates, including deposits, bonds and other obligations, and summarize our exposure to interest rate risks as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022. It includes the Group’s financial instruments at carrying amounts, categorized into columns based on the earlier of their contractual repricing date and maturity/call date. The products are distributed according to their contractual behavior or distribution assumptions (for those without contractual maturity). In addition, some credit products prepayment assumptions are considered.

Investments and derivatives classified by our management as held for trading are not considered in our repricing gap analysis, because these instruments are included in the trading book. Instead of repricing gap analysis, we use VaR methodology to assess risk arising from these instruments. Other assets and other liabilities include only financial accounts.

The COVID-19 outbreak implied changes in customer behavior patterns and government programs that represented a high level of uncertainty and risk for the Group’s balance sheet structure and its consequent exposure to interest rate risk in the banking book. To effectively deal with this environment, efforts were focused on analyzing government stimulus packages, the creation of financial relief products for clients, the evolution in the composition of assets and liabilities both in volume and in characteristics, collecting all these aspects in key risk metrics and analytical reports to ensure a level of exposure to interest rate risks consistent with the Group's risk appetite level.

Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates

The sensitivity analysis of a reasonable possible change in interest rates on the ALM book comprises an assessment of the sensibility of the financial margin, which seeks to measure the potential changes in interest accruals over a period of time due to the expected parallel movement of the interest rate curves, as well as the sensitivity of the net economic value, which is a long-term metric measured as the difference between the economic value of net assets and liabilities before and after a variation in interest rates.

The sensitivity of the financial margin is the effect of the assumed changes in interest rates on the net interest income before income tax for one year and is based on non-trading financial assets and financial liabilities held at December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, including the effect of derivatives instruments. The sensitivity of net economic value is calculated by reassessing the financial assets and liabilities that comprise the banking book, including the effect of any associated hedge and derivative instruments designated as a cash flow hedge. In managing interest rate risk, no distinction is made by accounting category of the investments comprising the banking book, including instruments classified as fair value through other comprehensive income and amortized cost investments.

The tables below summarize our exposure to interest rate changes as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022:

The interest rate sensitivities set out in the tables above are illustrative only and are based on simplified scenarios. These figures represent the effect of the preform movements in the net interest income based on the projected yield curve scenarios and the Group’s current interest rate risk profile. This effect, however, does not incorporate actions that would be taken by Management to mitigate the impact of this interest rate risk. In addition, the Group proactively seeks to change the interest rate risk profile to minimize losses and optimize net revenues. The projections above also assume that interest rate of all maturities move by the same amount and, therefore, do not reflect the potential impact on net interest income of some rates changing while others remain unchanged.

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, investments in equity securities and funds that are non-trading, recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income and at fair value through profit or loss, respectively, are not considered as comprising investment securities for interest rate sensitivity calculation purposes; however, 10%, 25% and 30% changes in market prices are conducted to these price-sensitivity securities.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which impact net open monetary positions and equity positions in a different currency than the group’s functional currency.

The group’s monetary position is made up of the net open position of monetary assets, monetary liabilities and off-balance sheet items expressed in foreign currency for which the entity itself assumes the risk; as well as the equity position generated by the investment in the group’s subsidiaries whose functional currency is different from soles. In the first case, any appreciation/depreciation of the foreign currency would affect the consolidated income statement, on the contrary, in the case of the equity position, any appreciation/depreciation of the foreign currency will be recognized in other comprehensive income.

The Group manages foreign currency exchange risk, which affects the income statement, by monitoring and controlling currency positions exposed to movements in exchange rates. The market risk units of each subsidiary establish limits for said positions, which are approved by their own committees, and monitor and follow up the limits considering their foreign exchange trading positions, their most structural foreign exchange positions, as well as their sensitivities.

354

Table of Contents

Additionally, there is a monetary position limit at the Credicorp level, which is monitored and reported to the Group’s Risk Committee.

On the other hand, the Group manages foreign currency exchange risk whose fluctuation is recognized in other comprehensive income, monitoring and controlling equity positions and their sensitivities, which are reported to the Group’s Risk Committee.

Net foreign exchange gains/losses recognized in the consolidated statement of income are disclosed in the following items:

• Net gain on foreign exchange transactions

• Net gain on speculative derivatives

• Net gain from exchange difference

Transactions in foreign currency are made at free market exchange rates of the countries where Credicorp’s subsidiaries are established. As of December 31, 2020, 2021, and 2022, the net open monetary position with effect on results and the equity position of the group was as follows:

(*) There is an accounting hedge of net investment abroad where part of our liability position in dollars related to the balance of the item "bonds and notes issued", which was designated to hedge our permanent investment in Atlantic Security Holding Corporation. For further detail, refer to Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements, Bonds and Notes Issued, (iv) Senior notes - Credicorp Ltd.

We manage foreign exchange risk by monitoring and controlling the position values based on changes in exchange rates. Since 2014, we have measured the performance of these positions in Soles, our functional currency.

As of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the monetary position with effect on equity in other currencies is mainly made up of the equity of subsidiaries in Bolivian pesos for S/764.6 millions, S/928.6 million and S/954.7 million, respectively, in Colombian pesos for S/570.4 million, S/628.6 million and S/566.7 million, respectively and, in Chilean pesos for S/245.7 million, S/304.4 million and S/348.0 million, respectively.

The following tables show the sensitivity analysis of the main currencies to which the Group is exposed and which affect the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The analysis determines the effect of a reasonably possible variation of the exchange rate against the sun for each of the currencies independently, considering all other variables constant. A negative amount shows a potential net reduction in the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income, while a positive amount reflects a potential increase.

The following is a sensitivity analysis of the foreign exchange position with an effect on consolidated results, with the US dollar as the main currency of exposure. This analysis is shown as of December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022:

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its short-term payment obligations associated with its financial liabilities when they fall due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn. In this sense, the company that is facing a liquidity crisis would be failing to comply with the obligations to pay depositors and with commitments to lend or satisfy other operational cash needs.

For further information about liquidity risk management, please refer to ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS – 5.B Liquidity and Capital Resources - (3) Liquidity Risk

d) Model Risk

Model risk is defined as the probability of loss resulting from decisions (credit, market, among others) based on the use of poorly designed and/or poorly implemented models. The main sources of this risk are: deficiencies in data, errors in the model (from design to implementation) or wrong use of the model.

The Group uses models for different purposes, such as credit admission, capital calculation, monitoring behavior of payment, determination of loan reserves, market risk and liquidity. Model risk management is structured around a set of processes known as the life cycle of the model. The phases of the life cycle of the model in the Group are: identification, planning, development, internal validation, approval, implementation and use, and monitoring and control.

Management of model risk is proportional to the importance of each model. To this end, a tiered approach is used to synthesize the level of importance of a model, from which the level of model management is then determined.

e) Risk in insurance activity and operational risk

Both our operational risk, which measures the probability of loss of the business operations, and our insurance activity risk, which measures the real cost of claims and benefit payments and the timing thereof, are important for the Group’s risk management. How we identify, evaluate, measure, treat and control operational risk and insurance activity risk is defined and explained in the following notes to our audited consolidated financial statements: 34.4 Operational risk and 34.8 Risk of the insurance activity.

The main risk faced by the Group related to insurance contracts is that the real cost of claims and payments, or the opportunity cost of claims and payments, may differ from what was expected. The magnitude of this risk is influenced by the frequency of claims, the severity of claims, the real benefits paid and the development of long-term claims. Therefore, the Group seeks to ensure that sufficient reserves are available to cover these obligations. The Group constantly monitors the adequacy of its technical reserves by taking appropriate measures against possible adverse results. It also contracts with independent, recognized actuarial services firms to conduct periodic reviews regarding the sufficiency of reserves for the companies that make up the Insurance & Pensions LoB.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our Board of Directors and management are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our framework for internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, as issued by the IASB.

360

Table of Contents

Our framework for internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets;

•

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements, and our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and IFRS; and

•

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections about the effectiveness of our internal controls are subject to the risk that controls will become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in compliance with policies or procedure.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on the framework set forth by the COSO in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, our management identified no material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was effective, which means that each of the relevant components and seventeen principles are present and functioning and the five components operate together in an integrated manner.

The effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, has been audited by Gaveglio, Aparicio y Asociados S.C.R.L located in Lima, Peru with PCAOB ID 1316, an independent registered public accounting firm, which report is included on page F-3 of this annual report.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Credicorp Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in net equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

361

Table of Contents

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As described in Notes 3 f, 3 i, 7 and 34.1 to the consolidated financial statements, the amount recognized as allowance for loan losses is S/8,531 million as of December 31, 2022. As disclosed by management, the allowance is management’s estimate of expected credit losses that result from models with a series of underlying assumptions with regard to the choice of the variable inputs and their interdependencies. The impairment model for expected credit loss reflects the present value of all the cash flows related to the events of default, at (i) twelve months or (ii) the lifetime of the financial instrument depending on the impairment of the credit from inception in a three-stage model. The measurement of the expected credit loss is mainly based on the product of probability of default (PD), obtained mainly through rating and scoring tools; loss given default (LGD) and exposure at default (EAD), discounted at the reporting date and considering the expected macroeconomic effects. The expected credit loss reflects a result weighted by probability that considers a range of multiple outcomes based on reasonable and supportable forecasts. In addition, for commercial debtors with the highest debt that are in default, management performs an individual review to determine the expected loss in each case, in which it considers, among others, the financial information available and the coverage of real guarantees.

Table of Contents

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the allowance for loan losses is a critical audit matter are: (i) the significant judgement by management when developing its estimate, which in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity; and (ii) the effort in evaluating the significant judgment and assumptions used in the determination of PD, LGD and EAD, related to rating and scoring tools, prospective information, the determination of stages based on the impairment of the credit since its initial recognition and the individual review for commercial debtors in default. Also, the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the Company’s allowance estimation process, which included controls over data inputs, models and assumptions adopted by management, and the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the data used in the estimate and the mathematical accuracy of the impairment calculation for the credit portfolios and; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the models utilized for the estimation of the expected credit loss and the reasonableness of the significant assumptions related to the determination of PD, LGD and EAD, as well as rating and scoring tools, prospective information and the individual review performed on commercial debtors in default. The procedures included the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in testing management’s process for estimating expected credit loss allowance.

Valuation of the mathematical reserves for annuities

As described in Notes 3 e, 16 and 34.6 to the consolidated financial statements, the amount recognized as mathematical reserves for annuities is S/6,254 million as of December 31, 2022. As disclosed by management, the valuation of the Company’s mathematical reserves for annuities depends on significant judgment selecting actuarial methodologies and assumptions regarding future events. The main assumptions used in the valuation of the mathematical reserves for annuities are: (i) the mortality tables; and (ii) the discount rates. Changes in each of these assumptions could result in significant impacts in the valuation of the mathematical reserves for annuities and in the respective impacts reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee must approve all of the services that the independent external auditor provides as part of its responsibility to supervise the internal auditor’s work. The Audit Committee provides two types of approvals as set forth below:

(1)

The Audit Committee grants a “general approval” in advance for services that the independent external auditor may provide. After a general approval is given, further approval from the Audit Committee is required. A general approval is valid for 12 months from the date of approval unless the Audit Committee determines a different period shall apply. The Audit Committee is regularly informed of the services provided through the general approval process.

366

Table of Contents

(2)

The Audit Committee also grants “specific approval” on case-by-case basis for services that do not have general approval. All of the services that are not granted general approval need specific approval from the Audit Committee before any agreement is signed with the independent external auditor to provide such services. Any service that exceeds approved costs or budgets will need specific approval from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has set a limit on all tax and other fees, which cannot be greater than 35% of total auditor’s fees during a fiscal year. The Audit Committee may change this limit based upon our corporate needs and the complexity of the service provided by the independent external auditor. When considering granting any type of approval, the Audit Committee takes into account whether the requested services are consistent with the SEC’s rules regarding the independence of the independent external auditor.

As necessary, the Audit Committee supervises the execution of services provided by the independent external auditor. It approves, when necessary, any modification in the terms, conditions, fees, and extent of the audit services. The Audit Committee may give a general approval for other audit services where the independent external auditor is in the best position to provide those services. Such services typically include audit services required by regulations, financial audits for our subsidiaries or affiliates, and services associated with the presentation of documents to the SEC or other documents published in connection with the trading of our shares.

The Audit Committee may award a general approval to audit-related services if the committee believes that these services will not negatively affect the integrity of the independent external auditor and are consistent with SEC rules.

Consistent with SEC rules, the Audit Committee requires that all tax services provided by the independent external auditor be subject to its approval. The Audit Committee may grant a specific approval for other services provided by the independent external auditor as long as they do not impair the independence of the independent external auditor and are permissible under SEC rules.

Gaveglio, Aparicio y Asociados S.C.R.L, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited was Credicorp’s independent external auditor from January 1, 2015, until December 31, 2022.

The Audit Committee, in its meeting held in April 26, 2022 decided to initiate a selection process to select the external auditor of Credicorp for fiscal years 2023 to 2027.

The firms KPMG International Limited, Deloitte, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Ernst & Young LLP (EY) were invited to the first stage, held on June 20, 2022. The second stage was held at the Committee session on August 23, 2022. Based on the presentations, working documents, consultations and comparative analyses, the Audit Committee decided at its meeting held on September 27, 2022 to select EY as Credicorp's external auditor for fiscal years 2023 – 2027, subject to the firm’s performance, which will be evaluated at the end of each year during its appointment, and to recommend to the Board of Directors its appointment.

In the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on March 27, 2023, the shareholders of Credicorp approved the designation of Tanaka, Valdivia y Asociados SCRL a member of EY International, to act as independent external auditors of Credicorp and subsidiaries for the fiscal year 2023 and authorized our Board of Directors to delegate the approval of the independent external auditor’s annual fees to its Audit Committee.

The increase in audit fees in 2022 compared to 2021 was mainly due to more audited reports from the Subsidiaries in Panama and Chile, review of the implementation of IFRS 17 in Pacífico and foreign exchange differences. Auditors' fees were increased from 2021 to 2022 by US$ 0.5 million, equivalent to S/ 1.1 million.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

16G. A

The New York Stock Exchange – Corporate Governance

The NYSE’s corporate governance rules, codified in Section 303A of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual, apply, with certain exceptions for foreign private issuers like Credicorp, in full to companies listing common equity securities on the exchange. The chart below provides a brief description of the significant differences between our corporate governance practices and those followed by U.S. companies under NYSE listing standards:

370

Table of Contents

Section of NYSE Listed Company Manual	NYSE Corporate Governance Rules for US Domestic Issuers	Credicorp Corporate Governance Practices
303A.01	A majority of the members of the Board of Directors must be “Independent Directors”, as defined by the NYSE.	Credicorp is not required under Bermuda law to maintain a Board of Directors with a majority being Independent Directors. As of December 31, 2022, five Directors out of nine are independent.
303A.02	A Director cannot be “independent” unless the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the Director has no material relationship with the listed company. In affirmatively determining the independence of any Director who will serve on the compensation committee of the listed company’s Board of Directors, the Board of Directors must all factors specifically relevant to determining whether a Director has a relationship to the listed company that is material to that director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member, including, but not limited to: (i) the source of compensation of such Director, including any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee paid by the listed company to such Director (ii) whether such Director is affiliated with the listed company, a subsidiary of the listed company or an affiliate of a subsidiary of the listed company In addition, a Director is not independent if the Director: (iii) is, or has been within the last three years, an employee of the listed company, or an immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the listed company	Credicorp has adopted an “independence” standard that is different from the standard established by the NYSE. Credicorp’s independence standard incorporates the SEC’s minimum independence requirements applicable to Directors serving on Audit Committees. The definition of independence is included in Credicorp’s Corporate Governance Policy. There is no similar requirement under Bermuda law. Under our definition, a Director shall be deemed to be independent if he/she meets each of the following conditions: (i) Not being or having been, in the last three years, a Related Director or employee of Credicorp and/or subsidiaries. (ii) Not being or having been, in the last three years, a Director or employee of a company holding >=5% interest in Credicorp.

Bermuda law – Corporate Governance

We are a company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and are subject to Bermuda laws related to corporate governance. Under Bermuda law, there are no statutory requirements with respect to the independence of a Board of Directors, meetings of non-management Directors, the establishment and composition of certain committees or the adoption and disclosure of corporate governance guidelines or codes of business conduct and ethics. Certain Bermuda common law and statutory provisions, however, relate to duties and obligations of a company and its Directors that are similar to some of the duties and obligations arising from the provisions of Section 303A of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual.

377

Table of Contents

(1) Fiduciary Duties and Duties of Skill and Care Under Bermuda law

Under section 97(1) of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, as amended (also referred to as the Companies Act), every Director and officer of a company must act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the company (often referred to as a “fiduciary duty”) and must exercise the care, diligence, and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances (often referred to as a “duty of skill and care”).

Fiduciary Duty

Under the common law applicable to Bermuda companies, the fiduciary duty of Directors has four aspects which may be briefly summarized as follows:

A duty to act honestly and in good faith. A Director has a duty to act honestly and in good faith in what he considers are the best interests of the company and not for any collateral purpose. The courts allow the Director wide discretion in determining this, interfering only if no reasonable Director could have believed that a course of action was in the best interests of the company. However, a Director acting honestly, but not in the best interests of the company, is in breach of such duty.

A duty to exercise powers for a proper purpose. Directors must act within the powers set out in the company’s memorandum of association and bye-laws and exercise their powers in the company’s interests and for the purposes for which those powers were conferred. Even if the Directors are acting in good faith in the interests of the company as a whole, they must still use their powers for the purposes for which they were intended. For example, in general Directors are not allowed to exercise their powers in such a way as to prevent a majority of the members from exercising their rights.

A duty to avoid conflicts of interest. A Director must not put himself in a position where there is an actual or potential conflict between a personal interest and his duty to the company. However, a Director may enter into a contract where a conflict of interest might arise if the Bye-laws allow it or the company gives its approval in a general meeting. Our bye-laws do not prohibit a Director from entering into a contract where a conflict of interest may arise, but they do prohibit a Director from voting with respect to any contract or proposed contract or arrangement in which such Director is interested or with which such Director has a conflict of interest. In addition, section 97(4) of the Companies Act requires our Directors and officers to disclose at the first opportunity any interest in a material contract, proposed material contract or person that is a party to a material contract or proposed material contract with us or any of our subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

A duty not to appropriate, divert or personally profit from corporate opportunities. Unless the bye-laws specifically provide otherwise, a Director’s fiduciary position precludes him from appropriating, diverting, or taking a personal profit from any opportunities that result from the directorship. Our Bye-laws do provide an exception to this rule. They provide that any Director, any Director’s firm or partner, or any company with which any Director is associated may act for us in a professional capacity. Such Director, firm, partner, or company will be entitled to compensation for professional services as if the Director were not a member of our Board of Directors. However, such Director, firm, partner, or company may not act as our auditor.

Duty of Skill and Care

Under the common law, applicable to Bermuda companies, the duty of skill and care has three aspects which may be briefly summarized as follows:

Degree of Skill. A Director need not exhibit in the performance of his duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of like knowledge and experience. A Director is not expected to exercise a level of skill he does not have. The level of skill required of a Director is subjective, in that the Director is not expected, merely by virtue of the office, to possess any particular skills. Performance must be judged by the way the Director applies any skills which he actually has. However, Directors ought to acquire and maintain a sufficient knowledge and understanding of the company’s business to enable them to properly discharge their duties as Directors.

Attention to the Business. A Director must diligently attend to the affairs of the company. In the performance of this duty, a Director must at a minimum display the reasonable care an ordinary person would be expected to take in the same circumstances on his own behalf. Mere errors of judgment have been held not to breach the duty of skill and care. A Director, as such, is not bound to give continuous attention to the affairs of the company, as his or her duties are of an intermittent nature.

Reliance on Others. A Director is not liable for the acts of Co-Directors or other company officers solely by virtue of the position. A Director is entitled to rely on his Co-Directors or company officers as well as subordinates who are expressly put in charge of attending to the detail of management, provided such reliance is honest and reasonable (although a Director cannot absolve himself entirely of responsibility by delegation to others). As a general rule, before delegating responsibility to others, the Directors in question should satisfy themselves that the delegates have the requisite skills to discharge the functions delegated to them. In addition, the Directors must ensure that there is set up an adequate system of monitoring such delegates (e.g., managers). The Directors must, on a regular basis, ensure that their delegates have fulfilled their obligations. The Directors should require a regular flow of information from the delegates to ensure that they are carrying out their duties satisfactorily. In addition, section 97(5A) of the Companies Act provides that a Director shall not have breached the fiduciary duty or duty of skill and care required by section 97(1) if he relies in good faith upon financial statements of the company represented to him by another Director or officer of the company or a report of an attorney, accountant, engineer, appraiser, or other person whose profession lends credibility to a statement made by him.

(2) Other Statutory Duties and Obligations

The Companies Act imposes certain specific duties and obligations on companies and Directors, both directly and indirectly, including duties and obligations with respect to (i) loans to Directors and related persons, (ii) limits on indemnities for Directors and officers and (iii) the keeping of proper books of account.

Loans to Directors and Related Persons

It is not lawful for a company to make a loan or to enter into a guarantee or provide security in connection with a loan to a Director or certain persons related to a Director without the consent of the members of the company holding in the aggregate not less than 90% of the total voting rights of all the members having the right to vote at any meeting of the members of the company, except in certain specific circumstances.

Limits on Indemnity for Directors

Section 98 of the Companies Act provides generally that a Bermuda company may indemnify its Directors, officers, and auditors against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise be imposed on them with respect to any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust. However, this rule does not apply in cases where such liability arises from fraud or dishonesty of which such Director; officer or auditor may be guilty in relation to the company or any of its subsidiaries. Any provision, whether contained in the Bye-laws of a company or in any contract or arrangement between the company and one of its Directors which would exempt such Director from, or indemnify him against, any liability that would otherwise attach to him with respect to his fraud or dishonesty in relation to the company will be void. Section 98 further provides that a Bermuda company may indemnify its Directors, officers and auditors against any liability incurred by them in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is awarded in their favor or in which they are acquitted or granted relief by the Supreme Court of Bermuda pursuant to section 281 of the Companies Act. In the event that an allegation of fraud or dishonesty is proven, the Director is obligated to disgorge any money provided for his defense.

Books of Account

It is the duty of the Directors to cause to be kept proper books of account with respect to all sums of money received and expended by the company and the matters with respect to which the receipts and expenditures take place, all sales and purchases by the company, and the assets and liabilities of the company.

Peruvian Law – Corporate Governance

Although we are a holding company whose principal subsidiaries (Grupo Crédito S.A., BCP Stand-alone, and Grupo Pacífico) are incorporated under and subject to the laws of Peru, initially we were registered in Peru as a foreign issuer and were consequently only subject to Peruvian regulations applicable to foreign issuers. Due to a regulatory amendment enacted in December 2017, now our stock is considered as a valor nacional (or national security), which has resulted in changes to our reporting requirements for the SMV. Currently, there are no corporate governance provisions under Peruvian law applicable to us that are similar to the provisions of Section 303A of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the valuation of the mathematical reserves for annuities, which includes controls over data inputs, assumptions, and calculation of the mathematical reserves. These procedures also included, among others, testing the completeness, accuracy and relevance of underlying data used in the model, the appropriateness of discount rates, and the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in testing management’s process for the valuation of the mathematical reserves for annuities, including evaluating the appropriateness of the methodologies and models and evaluating the reasonableness of the main assumptions related to the mortality tables and discount rates.

The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 have been prepared following the historical cost criteria, except for investments at fair value through profit or loss, investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss, derivative financial instruments, and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss; which have been measured at fair value.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Soles (S/), which is the functional currency of the Group, see paragraph (c) below, and values are rounded to thousands of soles, unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of significant events in notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the current circumstances. The final results could differ from said estimates; however, the Management expects that the variations, if any, will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The most significant estimates included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are related to the calculation of the allowance of the expected credit loss on loan portfolio, the valuation of investments, the technical reserves for insurance claims and premiums, the impairment of goodwill , the expected credit loss for investments at fair value through other comprehensive income and investments at amortized cost, the valuation of share-based payment plans and the valuation of derivative financial instruments.

Furthermore, there are other estimates, such as the estimated useful life of intangible assets, property, furniture and equipment and the deferred income tax assets and liabilities. The accounting criteria used for said estimates are described below.

The Group has adopted the following standards and amendments for the first time for its annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2022, as described below:

(i)

Amendments to IAS16 - Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use

In May 2020, the Board of International Accounting Standards Board issued the Property, Plant and Equipment rule: Proceeds before Intended Use, which prohibits companies from deducting from the cost of an article of Property, Plant and Equipment any product of the sale of articles produced while said asset is transported to the location and the conditions are adequate for it to operate in the manner foreseen by the administration. Instead, an entity must recognize the product of the sale of said articles and the costs of production of the same in the profit and loss statement. These amendments take effect on January 1, 2022 and must be applied retrospectively to articles of property, plant and equipment that are made available for use on or after the beginning with the first period that the entity applied the amendment for the first time.

F-20

This amendment had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

(ii)

Amendments to IFRS 3 - Reference to the Conceptual Framework -

Minor amendments were made to IFRS 3 Business combinations to update references to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Information and add an exception to recognize liabilities and contingent liabilities within the scope of IAS37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and the Interpretation IFRIC 21 Levies.

The amendments also confirm that active contingent assets should not be recognized on the date of acquisition. The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods on or after January 1, 2022.

This amendment had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

(iii)

Onerous Contracts - Cost of Fullfilling a Contract - Amendments to IAS37 -

In May 2020, the Board of International Accounting Standards Board issued amendments to IAS 37 to specify which cost an entity must include when assessing if a contract is onerous or generates losses. The amendment to IAS37 clarifies that the direct costs of complying with a contract include both the incremental costs of complying with the contract and the assignment of other costs directly required to comply with the contracts. Prior to recognizing a separate provision for the onerous contract, the entity will recognize any loss for impairment that occurred relative to the assets used to comply with the contract.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.

This amendment had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

(iv)

Annual improvements to the IFRS 2018 - 2020 Cycle -

As part of its annual improvements 2018-2020 to the standard process of IFRS, in May 2020, the Board for International Accounting Standards Board issued the following amendments:

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments - clarifies that commissions must be included in the 10.0 percent test for derecognition of financial liabilities.

IFRS 16 Leases - amendment to the illustrative example 13 to eliminate the example of lessor payment related to improvements in the object of leasing to eliminate any confusion regarding the treatment of leasing incentives.

IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards - allows entities that have measured their assets and liabilities at carrying amount on their headquarters’ books to also measure any accumulative translation using the amounts reported by the parent company. This amendment will also apply to associates and joint ventures that have taken the same expectation to IFRS 1.

IAS41 Agriculture - elimination of the requirement that entities exclude cash flows of taxes when it measures the reasonable value according to IAS41. The objective of this amendment is to align with the standard’s requirement to discount after-tax cash flows.

These amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with early adoption.

These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

F-21

In 2021, the Group adopted the following amendments:

(i)

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2 - Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4, and IFRS 16 -

In August 2020, the IASB made amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4, and IFRS 16, to address issues that may arise from the Interest Rate Benchmark Reform including the replacement of an interest rate with an alternative.

These amendments provide the following practical applications:

By changing the basis for determining the contractual cash flows for financial assets and liabilities (including lease liabilities), the practical application has the effect that the changes, which are necessary as a consequence of the LIBOR reform and which are considered economically equivalent, will not result in an immediate gain or loss in results.

The practical application regarding hedge accounting will allow most of the hedging relationships (whether they come from IAS 39 or IFRS 9) that are directly affected by the LIBOR reform to be able to be maintained. However, there may be some additional ineffectiveness that needs to be recognized.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, it has not any significant effect on the consolidated financial statements

In 2020, the accounting standards adopted by the Group have not had any significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Basis of consolidation -

Investment in subsidiaries -

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Credicorp and its Subsidiaries for all the years presented.

Under IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”, all entities over which the Group has control are subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. The Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:

Power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee).

Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and

The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

There is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee.

Rights arising from other contractual arrangements.

The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

F-22

The Group assesses whether or not it controls an investee if the facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes in any of the elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. The consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities, income and expenses of Credicorp and its subsidiaries.

Profit or loss for the period and each component of the other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interest, even if this results in the non-controlling interest with a negative balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies.

All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Assets in custody or managed by the Group, such as investment funds and private pension funds (AFP funds) and others, are not part of the Group’s consolidated financial statements, Note 3(ab).

Transactions with non-controlling interest -

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction and any resulting difference between the price paid and the price for which non-controlling interests are adjusted is recognized directly in the consolidated statement of changes in net equity.

The Group does not record any additional goodwill after the purchase of the non-controlling interest, nor does it recognize a gain or loss from the sale of the non-controlling interest.

Loss of control -

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the carrying amount of the related assets (including goodwill) and liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity, while any resultant gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Any residual investment retained is recognized at fair value.

Investments in associates -

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entity, but without exercising control over said policies.

The Group’s investments in its associates are recognized initially at cost and are subsequently accounted for using the equity method. They are included in “Other assets” in the consolidated statement of financial position; the returns resulting from the use of the equity method of accounting are included in “Net gain on securities” in the consolidated statement of income.

F-25

(i)

Functional, presentation and foreign currency transactions -

(i)

Functional and presentation currency -

Credicorp and its Subsidiaries which operate in Peru consider the sol as their functional and presentation currency since it reflects the nature of the economic events and relevant circumstances for most of the Group´s entities, given the fact their major transactions and/operations, such as: loans granted, financing obtained, sale of insurance premiums, interests and similar income, interest and similar expenses, as well as a significant percentage of their purchases; they are agreed and settled in soles.

(ii)

Transactions and balances in foreign currency -

Foreign currency transactions are those carried out in currencies other than the functional currency. These transactions are initially recorded by Group entities at the exchange rates of their functional currencies at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are adjusted at the exchange rate of the functional currency prevailing at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position.

The differences arising from the exchange rate prevailing at the date of each consolidated statement of financial position presented and the exchange rate initially used in recording transactions are recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the year in which they occur, in “Net gain from exchange differences”, except for those that comprise monetary items that are part of a hedging strategy for a net investment abroad, said accumulated difference is recognized in the item “Exchange differences on translation of foreign operations” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities acquired in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the initial transaction date and are not subsequently adjusted.

(iii)

Group entities with functional currency other than the presentation currency -

Given that the Group’s entities in Colombia, Chile, Cayman Islands, Panama and Bolivia, Mexico, United States of America, Spain and Mexico have a functional currency different from Sol, the balances were translated into Soles for consolidation purposes in accordance with IAS 21, “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates” as follows:

Assets and liabilities, at the closing exchange rate prevailing at the date of each consolidated statement of financial position.

Income and expense, at the average exchange rate for each month of the year.

All resulting exchange differences were recognized within “Exchange differences on translation of foreign operations”, including the differences in financial instruments designated as accounting hedges of said investments, in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Recognition of income and expenses from banking activities -

Effective interest rate method:

Interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR) method for all financial instruments measured at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income. Interest expenses corresponding to liabilities measured at amortized cost are also recorded using the EIR.

F-26

The EIR is the rate that exactly discounts future cash flows that are estimated to be paid or received during the life of the instrument or a shorter period, if appropriate, to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. The EIR (and, therefore, the amortized cost of the financial asset or liability) is calculated considering any discount, premium and transaction costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate of the financial instrument, but the expected credit loss are not included.

Interest income and expenses:

The Group calculates interest income by applying the EIR to the gross carrying amount of those financial assets that are not impaired.

When a financial asset becomes impaired and, therefore, is considered in Stage 3 (as set out in Note 3(i) impairment of financial assets), the Group calculates interest income by applying the interest rate effective at the carrying amount of the asset, net of its provision for credit loss. If the evidence that the criteria for the recognition of the financial asset in Stage 3 are no longer met, the Group recalculates interest income in gross terms.

Interest income and expenses accrued from all financial instruments that generate interest, including those related to financial instruments carried at fair value through profit or loss, are recorded under the heading “Interest and similar income” and “Interest and similar expenses” in the consolidated statement of income.

Dividends:

Dividends are recorded as income when they are declared.

Commissions and fees:

Commission income (which is not an integral part of the EIR) and fees are recorded as they accrue. Commissions and fees include, among others, the commission charged for the banking service in general such as account maintenance, shipping, transfers, loan syndication fees and contingent credit fees.

Other income and expenses:

All other income and expenses are recorded in the period in which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Insurance activities -

Product classification:

Insurance contracts are those contracts in which the Group (the insurer) has accepted a significant insurance risk from the counterparty (the policyholder) by agreeing to compensate the policyholder if an uncertain future event (the insured event) occurs. This definition also includes reinsurance contracts that the Group holds.

Life insurance contracts offered by the Group include retirement, disability and survival insurance, annuities and individual life which includes Investment Link insurance contracts. The non-life insurance contracts issued by the Group mainly include automobile, fire and allied lines, technical branches and healthcare.

F-27

Reinsurance:

Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a consistent manner with the outstanding claims reserve or settled claims and ceded premiums, associated with the ceded policies and in accordance with the related reinsurance contracts.

Ceded reinsurance arrangements do not relieve the Group from its obligations to policyholders.

The Group also assumes reinsurance risk in the normal course of business for non-life insurance contracts when applicable. Premiums and claims on assumed reinsurance are recognized as revenue or expenses in the same manner as they would be if the reinsurance were considered direct business, taking into account the classification of the reinsured insurance contract.

Reinsurance liabilities represent balances due to reinsurance companies. Amounts payable are estimated in a manner consistent with the related reinsurance contract.

Reinsurance contracts that do not transfer significant insurance risk are not material to the insurance segment.

Insurance receivables:

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 the carrying amount of the insurance receivables is similar to their fair value due to their short term. The carrying amount of insurance receivables is reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The impairment loss is recorded in the consolidated statement of income. Insurance receivables are derecognized when the de-recognition criteria for financial assets, as described in Note 3(g), have been met.

“Investment Link” assets:

“Investment Link” assets represent financial instruments held for purposes of funding a group of life insurance contracts and for which investment gains and losses are allocated directly to the policyholders who bear the investment and reinvestment risk. Each account has specific characteristics, and the assets are carried at fair value. The balances of each account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Group. The liabilities linked to these contracts are equal in amount to the assets that support them, net of the commissions that the Group charges for the management of these contracts.

F-28

Deferred acquisition costs (DAC):

It comprises the direct costs that originate with and are related to traditional life and Investment Link insurance contracts, which are deferred; all other acquisition costs are recognized as an expense when incurred. The direct acquisition costs comprise primarily agent commissions corresponding to the underwriting and policy issuance costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, these costs are amortized on a straight-line basis based on the average expiration period of the related insurance contracts. Amortization is recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

DAC for general insurance and health products are amortized over the period in which the related revenues are earned.

DAC are derecognized when the related contracts are either settled or disposed of.

An impairment review is performed at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises. When the recoverable amounts are less than the carrying amount an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income. DAC is also considered in the liability adequacy test for each reporting period.

Reinsurance commissions:

Commissions on reinsurance contracts for ceded premiums are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the coverage of the related insurance contract.

Insurance contract liabilities:

(i)

Life insurance contract liabilities -

Life insurance liabilities are recognized when the term of the contract begins.

The technical reserves maintained by the Group include the reserves of all of the business lines, comprising both the mathematical reserves and those of ongoing risk, as well as the reserves for outstanding claims, settled claims, claim settlement costs, claims incurred but not reported, as applicable to each line.

Due to the nature of the business, the mathematical reserves of the pension lines represent the main part of the Group’s reserves, with the line of Life Annuities as the major source of reserves due to the important volume of premiums and as a result of having only single premiums. To determine the reserves of this business, the discounted present value of the expected future pensions, calculated on the basis of mortality tables and interest rates. Those are based on the asset portfolio which supports the liabilities. Additionally, the constituted reserves include the amount required to cover the maintenance expenses related to the administration of the payment of future pensions.

The mathematical reserves of the income lines are determined by the sum of the value discounted from future expected pensions to be paid during a defined period or not defined, calculated on the basis of the current mortality and morbidity tables, and the market discount interest rates of the investment portfolio. During 2018, the Group adopted the new mortality tables approved and published by the SBS through Resolution SBS No.886-2018. These tables reflect recent changes in the life expectancy.

The Group also uses discount rates in the measurement of income to reflect the market value in the measurement of insurance liabilities. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Group uses the market rate for harvests of the portfolio of its financial assets for pension flows shifted by currency (market rates).

F-29

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the adjustments to the liabilities at each reporting date of the consolidated statement of financial position are recorded in the consolidated statement of income (due to the effects of the variations in the mortality tables) and in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (due to the effect of the market rate), both effects are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The liability is derecognized when the contract expires, is discharged or is cancelled.

On the other hand, in the Individual Life business, the Group offers some products which are only risk related and others of risk and savings, the latter being those which comprise the highest percentage of reserves of the line. Risk and savings products can be differentiated between those with a guaranteed interest rate and others without guaranteed interest, the reserve for the first group being equal to the balance of the policy accounts plus the unaccredited surplus interest, and for the second group it is equal to the balance of the policy accounts. These accounts are established with the premiums collected, tax deductions, expenses and costs of insurance and the accreditation of interest based on the yield of the portfolio which supports said reserves.

Life insurance claims reserves include reserves for reported claims and estimates of incurred claims that havenot been reported (IBNR) to the Group. As of December 31, 2022 reserves for claims occurred and not reported were determined on the basis of the Chain Ladder methodology (a generally accepted actuarial method), whereby the weighted average of past claim development is projected into the future; this projection is based on the ratios of occurrence of accumulated past claims. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, IBNR reserves were calculated in two parts:

a) IBNR reserve for regular claims and

b) IBNR reserve for expected excess mortality (deaths above the average number of cases in the pre-pandemic months).

For part a) the IBNR reserves are determined based on the Chain Ladder methodology, maintaining the expected loss ratio of the periods prior to the pandemic and for part b) the IBNR reserves are determined based on the estimate of deaths in addition to the average (excess mortality) of each portfolio and subtracting additional claims to the average already reported to the Group. The excess mortality of each portfolio is calculated taking into account the excess mortality experienced in the country by geographic location and age ranges and the representation of the portfolio of policyholders in those same segments. It should be noted that, due to periods of social confinement and stoppage of certain activities, the claim report during 2022 and 2021 has shown greater delays than in previous years, which translates into an increase in IBNR and an increase in claims, likewise, it is reflected in the increase in the reserve for pending claims. In general, claim reserves have been estimated with prudential criteria due to the uncertainty in the loss ratio caused by the pandemic.

At each reporting date, an evaluation is carried out as to whether the life insurance liabilities are adequate, net of the related DAC, by means of a liability adequacy test as established by IFRS 4. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Group’s Management concluded that the liabilities are sufficient and, therefore, they have not recognized any additional liability for life insurance contracts.

F-30

(ii)

Non-life insurance contract liabilities (which comprise general and healthcare insurance) -

Non-life insurance contract liabilities are recognized when contracts are entered into.

Claims reserves are based on the last estimated cost of all claims incurred but not settled at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, whether reported or not, together with related claim handling costs and the expected reduction in value of salvage and other recoveries. Delays can be experienced in the notification and settlement of certain types of claims, therefore their ultimate cost cannot be known with certainty at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position.

During 2022 and 2021, the Group incorporated in the estimate of the reserve for incurred and unreported claims (IBNR) of the general insurance businesses, adjustments in the expected frequency of claims during the months of confinement, stoppage of transport and activities in the country, as well as the decrease in the insured portfolio that was later recovering its usual level.

In the case of Medical Assistance (AMED), the IBNR estimate included the estimate of regular claims and also the IBNR estimate for COVID claims, which had a different frequency and cost than regular claims.

No provision is recognized for stabilization or catastrophic reserves. The liability is written off when the contract expires, is eliminated or canceled.

Technical reserves for non-life insurance contracts comprise the provision for unearned premiums which represents premiums received for risks that have not yet expired. Generally, the reserve is liberated during the term of the contract and is recognized as premium income.

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the risk from outstanding claims and an existing liability adequacy test as laid out under IFRS 4, to determine whether there is any overall excess of expected claims over unearned premiums. If these estimates show that the carrying amount of the unearned premiums is inadequate, the deficiency is recognized in the consolidated statement of income by setting up a provision for liability adequacy. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, Management determined that the liabilities were adequate; therefore, it has not recorded any additional liabilities for non-life insurance contracts.

Income recognition:

(i)

Gross premiums -

Life insurance contracts -

Gross premiums on life contracts are recognized as revenue when due from the policyholder. For single premium business, revenue is recognized on the date on which the policy is effective.

F-31

Non-life insurance contracts -

Gross non-life insurance direct and assumed premiums comprise the total premiums written and are recognized on the date of issue of the policy as a receivable. At the same time, a reserve is recorded for unearned premiums which represent premiums for risks that have not yet expired. Unearned premiums are recognized as income over the contract period which is also the coverage and risk period.

(ii)

Fees and commission income -

Investment Link insurance contract policyholders remunerate the Group for policy administration services, investment management services, surrenders and other contract fees. These fees are recognized as revenue in the consolidated statement of income in the period in which the services are provided.

Recognition of benefits, claims and expenses:

(i)

Benefits and claims -

The benefits and claims for life insurance contracts include the cost of all claims arising during the year including internal and external claim handling costs that are directly related to the processing and settlement of claims. Claims for death and disability claims are recorded based on notifications received. Pension payments are recognized when they accrue.

General and health insurance claims include all claims occurring during the year, whether reported or not, internal and external claim handling costs that are directly related to the processing and settlement of claims, a reduction for the value of salvage and other recoveries, and any adjustment to claims outstanding from previous years.

(ii)

Ceded premiums -

Comprise the total premiums payable for the coverage of the insurance contracts and are recognized on the date the insurance contract enters in policy commences. Unearned ceded premiums are deferred over the term of the underlying insurance contract.

(iii)

Reinsurance claims -

Reinsurance claims are recognized when the related gross insurance claim is recognized according to the terms of the relevant contract.

Financial instruments: Initial recognition and subsequent measurement -

A financial instrument is any agreement that originates a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

The Group determined the classification of its financial instruments at the date of initial recognition.

All financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value plus the incremental costs related to the transaction that are directly attributable to the purchase or issue of the instrument, except in the case of financial assets or liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss.

The purchases or sales of financial assets that require the delivery of the assets within a term established according to market regulations or conventions (regular market terms) are recognized on the negotiation date, in other words, the date in which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.

F-32

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Group classified the financial assets in one of the categories defined by IFRS 9: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, at fair value though other comprehensive income and at amortized cost, based on:

The business model for managing the financial assets and

The characteristics of the contractual cash flows of the financial asset.

Business model -

Represents how the financial assets are managed to generate cash flows and it does not depend on the Management’s intention with regard to an individual instrument. Financial assets can be managed for the purpose of i) obtaining contractual cash flows; ii) obtaining contractual cash flows and sale; or iii) others. In order to evaluate the business models, the Group considers:

The risks that affect the performance of the business model, and in particular, the way in which these risks are managed.

How the performance of the business model and the financial assets, held within this business model, are evaluated and informed to the key personnel of the Administration of the Group.

If the cash flows after initial recognition are carried out in a manner other than what is expected by the Group, the classification of the remaining financial assets maintained in this business model is not modified.

When the financial asset is maintained in the business models i) and ii), it requires the application of the “Solely Payments of Principal and Interest” test - “SPPI”.

SPPI Test (Solely Payments of Principal and Interest) -

This test consists in the evaluation of the cash flows generated by a financial instrument in order to verify if the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. To adapt to this concept, the cash flows must solely include the consideration of the time value of money and the credit risk. If the contractual terms introduce risk exposure or cash flow volatility, such as the exposure to changes in the prices of capital instruments or the prices of raw materials, the financial asset is classified at fair value through profit or loss. Hybrid contracts must be evaluated as a whole, including all the integrated characteristics. The accounting of a hybrid contract that contains an embedded derivative is carried out jointly, in other words, the entire instrument is measured at fair value through profit or loss.

(i)

Financial assets at amortized cost -

A financial asset is classified at amortized cost if the following conditions are met:

It is held within a business model whose objective of which is to maintain the financial asset to obtain the contractual cash flows, and

The contractual conditions give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that are solely payments of the principal and interest.

After their initial recognition, the financial assets of this category are valued at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method, minus any credit loss provision. The amortized cost is calculated considering any discount or premium incurred in the acquisition and professional fees that constitute an integral part of the effective interest rate. Interests income is included in the item “Interest and similar income” of the consolidated income statement.

Financial assets at amortized cost include direct loans that are recorded when the disbursement of the funds in favor of the customers is carried out, and indirect (contingent) loans that are recorded when the documents that support said loan facilities are issued.

F-33

Furthermore, the Group considers as refinanced or restructured those credits that, due to difficulties in payment on the part of the debtor, change their payment schedule.

The impairment loss is calculated using the expected loss approach and recognized in the consolidated income statement in the item “Net gain on securities” for investments and in the item “Provision for credit losses on loan portfolio” for loans.

The balance of the financial assets, measured at amortized cost, is presented net of the provision for credit losses in the consolidated statement of financial position.

(ii)

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income -

The financial assets that the Group maintains in this category are : a) investments in debt instruments, and b) investments in equity instruments, not for trading, irrevocably designated at initial recognition.

Investments in debt instruments -

A financial asset is classified and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income when the following conditions are followed:

The financial asset is maintained within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and

The contractual conditions give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

After their initial recognition, investments in debt instruments are measured at fair value, recording the unrealized gains and losses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, net of their corresponding income tax and non-controlling interest, until the investment is sold; upon which the accumulated profit or loss is recognized in the item “Net gain on securities” in the consolidated statement of income.

Interest is recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the item “Interest and similar income” and it is reported as interest income using the effective interest rate method.

When a debt instrument is designated in a fair value hedging relationship, any change in the fair value due to changes in the hedged risk is recognized in the item “Interest and similar income” of the consolidated statement of income.

Gains or losses from exchange differences related to the amortized cost of the debt instrument are recognized in the consolidated statement of income, and those related to the difference between the amortized cost and the fair value are recognized as part of the unrealized gain or loss in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The estimated fair value of the investments in debt instruments is mainly determined based on quotations or, in their absence, based on the discounted cash flows using market rates in accordance with the credit quality and the maturity term of the investment.

The impairment loss of investments in debt instruments is calculated using the expected loss approach and is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, charged to the item “Net gain on securities” in the consolidated statement of income, in this sense, it does not reduce the carrying amount of the financial asset in the consolidated statement of financial position, which is maintained at fair value. The impairment loss recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is reclassified to the consolidated statement of income when the debt instrument is derecognized.

F-34

Investments in equity instruments, not for trading, designated upon initial recognition (equity instruments designated at the initial recognition) -

At initial recognition, the Group can make an irrevocable choice to present the equity instruments, which are not for trading, but for strategic purposes, in the item “At fair value through other comprehensive income”.

After initial recognition, the equity investments are measured at fair value, recording the unrealized gains and losses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, net of their corresponding income tax and non-controlling interest, until the investment is sold, whereupon the accumulated gain or loss is transferred to the item “Retained earnings” in the consolidated statement of changes in equity; in other words, they are not subsequently reclassified to the consolidated statement of income.

As a result, the equity instruments classified in this category do not require a loss impairment evaluation.

Dividends are recognized when the collection right has been established and they are recorded in the item “Interest and similar income” in the consolidated statement of income.

(iii)

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss -

Financial assets must be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, unless they are classified and measured at “Amortized cost” or “At fair value through other comprehensive income”.

The financial assets that the Group maintains in this category are: a) Investments in debt instruments, b) investments in equity instruments for trading purposes, c) financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss from their initial recognition, and d) derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Debt instruments -

Said instruments are classified in this category since: a) they are maintained for trading purposes, or b) their cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest.

After their initial recognition they are measured at fair value, recording the changes in “Net gain on securities” in the consolidated statement of income. Interests accrued are calculated using the contractual interest rate and recorded in the “Interest and similar income” item in the consolidated statement of income.

Equity instruments -

Equity instruments are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, unless an irrevocable choice is made, at the time of initial recognition, to designate them at fair value through other comprehensive income.

After their initial recognition, they are measured at fair value, recording the changes in the item “Net gains on securities” in the consolidated statement of income. The profit from dividends is recorded in the item “Interest and similar income” in the consolidated statement of income when the right to payment has been recognized.

F-35

Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss from initial recognition -

Upon initial recognition, Management can irrevocably designate financial assets as measured at fair value through profit or loss, if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an incongruence of measurement or recognition that would otherwise arise from the measurement of the assets or liabilities or from the recognition of the profit and losses thereof on different bases.

After initial recognition they are measured at fair value, recording the changes in the consolidated statement of income.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Group classified the financial liabilities upon initial recognition as measured at amortized cost, except in the case of the financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. These liabilities include the derivatives measured at fair value.

The interest incurred is accrued in the item “Interest and similar expense” in the consolidated statement of income.

Furthermore, upon initial recognition, Management can irrevocably designate financial liabilities as measured at fair value through profit or loss when one of the following criteria is complied with:

An incongruence in the measurement is eliminated or significantly reduced, which would otherwise arise from using different criteria to measure assets or liabilities; or

They are part of a group of financial liabilities, which are managed and their yield is evaluated based on fair value, according to a documented investment strategy or risk management; or

The financial liability contains one or more embedded derivatives that otherwise significantly modify the required cash flows.

(iv)

Reclassification of financial assets and liabilities -

The reclassification of financial assets will take place as long as the business model that manages the financial assets is changed. This change is expected to be very rare. These changes are determined by approval of the Group's management as a result of external or internal changes, which must be significant for the Group's operations and demonstrable to third parties. Financial liabilities are never reclassified.

When the Group changes its business model for the management of financial assets, it will reclassify all affected financial assets prospectively from the reclassification date. The Group will not restate previously recognized gains, losses or interest (including gains or losses due to impairment of value).

If the Group reclassifies:

A financial asset from the amortized cost measurement category to fair value through profit or loss: its fair value will be measured on the reclassification date. Any gain or loss that arises from differences between the previous amortized cost of the financial asset and its fair value will be recognized in the result of the period.

A financial asset from the measurement category of fair value through profit or loss to that of amortized cost: its fair value on the reclassification date becomes its new carrying amount.

F-36

A financial asset from the amortized cost measurement category to fair value through other comprehensive income: its fair value will be measured on the reclassification date. Any gain or loss arising from differences between the prior amortized cost of the financial asset and its fair value will be recognized in other comprehensive income. The effective interest rate and the measurement of expected credit losses will not be adjusted as a result of the reclassification.

A financial asset from the measurement category of fair value through other comprehensive income to that of amortized cost, the financial asset will be reclassified at its fair value on the reclassification date. However, accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income will be eliminated from equity and adjusted against the fair value of the financial asset on the reclassification date. As a result, the financial asset will be measured at the reclassification date as if it had always been measured at amortized cost. This adjustment affects other comprehensive income but not profit for the period.

A financial asset from the measurement category of fair value through profit or loss to fair value through other comprehensive income, the financial asset continues to be measured at fair value.

A financial asset from the measurement category of fair value through other comprehensive income to that of fair value through profit or loss, the financial asset continues to be measured at fair value.

The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income will be reclassified from equity to profit or loss for the period.

De-recognition of financial assets and liabilities -

Financial assets:

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or a part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when: (i) the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or (ii) the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; and either the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

F-37

Financial liabilities:

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms (it does not pass the 10% test established in IFRS 9), or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such exchange or modification is treated as a withdrawal of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability; the difference between the carrying amount of the original financial liability and the consideration paid is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

Offsetting financial instruments -

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and Management has the intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Impairment of financial assets -

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Group applies a three-stage approach to measure the provision for credit loss, using an impairment model based on the expected credit losses as established in IFRS 9, for the following categories:

Financial assets at amortized cost.

Debt instruments classified as investments at fair value through other comprehensive income, and

Indirect loans that are presented in risk accounts and contingent commitments.

The financial assets classified or designated at fair value through profit of loss and the equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income, are not subject to impairment evaluation.

Financial assets migrate through three stages according to the change in the credit risk from the initial recognition.

Impairment model of expected credit losses -

The calculations of credit losses are products of models with a series of underlying assumptions with regard to the choice of the variable inputs and their interdependencies. The impairment model for expected credit loss reflects the present value of all the cash deficit events related to the events of default, whether (i) during the following twelve months or (ii) during the expected useful life of a financial instrument depending on the impairment of the credit from the beginning. The expected credit loss reflects an unbiased result weighted by probability that considers a range of multiple outcomes based on reasonable and supportable forecasts.

The provisions for credit losses will be measured on each reporting date following a three-stage model of expected credit losses based on the degree of credit impairment from its origin:

Stage 1: Financial assets whose credit risk has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. A reserve will be recognized for losses equivalent to the credit losses expected to occur from defaults in the following 12 months. For those instruments with a maturity less than 12 months, a probability of default corresponding to the remaining term until maturity is used.

Stage 2: Financial assets that have presented a significant increase in credit risk compared with initial recognition, but are not considered impaired, a reserve will be recognized for losses equivalent to the credit losses expected to occur during the remaining life of the asset.

F-38

Stage 3: Financial assets with evidence of impairment on the reporting date, a reserve will be recognized for losses equivalent to the expected credit losses during the entire life of the asset. The interest income will be recognized based on the carrying amount of the asset, net of the loss reserve.

Measurement of the expected loss -

The measurement of the expected credit loss is mainly based on the product of probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD), and exposure at default (EAD), discounted at the reporting date and considering the expected macroeconomic effects and all in accordance with the new regulation.

The details of these statistical parameters are the following:

PD: is an estimate of the probability of default in a determined time horizon. A default can only occur at a determined moment during the remaining estimated life, if the provision has not been previously derecognized and it is still in the loan portfolio.

LGD: is an estimate of the loss produced in the case a predetermined value is produced at a given time. It is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows owed and those that the lender would expect to receive, even after the liquidation of any guarantee. Generally, it is expressed as a percentage of the EAD.

EAD: is an estimate of the exposure on a future default date, which considers the changes expected in the exposure after the reporting date, including the reimbursements of principal and interest, whether programmed by contract or otherwise, and the interest accrued due to default payments.

The fundamental difference between the credit loss considered as Stage 1 and Stage 2 is the PD horizon. The estimates of Stage 1 use a 12-month horizon, while those situated in Stage 2 use an expected loss calculated with the remaining term of the asset and consider the effect of the significant increase in credit risk. Finally, Stage 3 will estimate the expected loss based on the best estimate (“ELBE”), according to the situation of the collection process of each asset.

Changes from one stage to another –

The classification of an instrument as stage 1 or stage 2 depends on the concept of “significant increase in credit risk” on the reporting date compared with the origination date; in this sense, the definition used considers the following criteria:

An account is classified in stage 2 if it has more than 30 days in arrears.

Thresholds for a significant increase in risk have been established based on absolute and relative thresholds that depend on the level of risk at which the instrument originated. The thresholds differ for each of the portfolios considered.

The follow-up systems, alerts and monitoring of risk portfolios are integrated, as established by the current risk policy in Wholesale and Retail Banking.

Additionally, all the accounts that are classified as default on the reporting date are considered as stage 3. Assesments of significant increase in risk since initial recognition and of credit impairment is performed independently at each reporting date. Assets can move in both directions, from one stage to another. See more detail in Note 34.1(c).

F-39

Prospective information -

The measurement of expected credit losses for each phase and the evaluation of significant increases in credit risk should consider information on past events and current conditions, as well as projections of future events and economic conditions. For the estimation of the risk parameters (PD, LGD, EAD), used in the calculation of the provision in phases 1 and 2, the significance of the macroeconomic variables (or their variations) that have the greatest influence on each portfolio was tested, which give a better prospective and systemic vision to the estimation, based on econometric techniques. These projections have a period of 3 years and, additionally, a long-term projection.

The estimate of the expected loss is a weighted estimate that considers three future macroeconomic scenarios. The base, optimistic and pessimistic scenarios are based on macroeconomic projections provided by the internal economic studies team and approved by Senior Management; these projections are made for the main countries where Credicorp operates. This same team also provides the probability of occurrence of each scenario. It should be noted that the design of the scenarios is reviewed quarterly and may be more frequent if the environmental conditions so require.

Macroeconomic factors -

In its models, the Group bases itself on a wide variety of prospective information such as economic inputs, including: the growth of the gross domestic product (GDP), unemployment rates, the base rates of the central bank, among others. It is possible that the inputs and models used to calculate the expected credit losses do not always capture all the market characteristics on the date of the financial statements. To reflect this, qualitative adjustments, or overlays such as temporary adjustments can be carried out using the opinion of experts.

Expected life -

For the instruments in Stage 2 or 3, the reserves for losses will cover the lifetime expected credit losses of the instrument. For the majority of instruments, the expected life is limited to the remaining term of the product, adjusted by expected advance payments. In the case of revolving products, an analysis was carried out in order to determine the expected life period.

Presentation of provision for credit losses in the consolidated statement of financial position -

Financial assets measured at amortized cost: as a deduction from the gross carrying amount of the financial assets.

Debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: it does not recognize any provision in the statement of financial position because the carrying amount of these assets is their fair value; however, the expected credit loss is presented in other comprehensive income.

Indirect loans: the credit loss provision is presented in the item “Other liabilities” of the statement of financial position.

Leases -

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Group mainly maintains mainly leased premises, used as offices and agencies, and servers and technological platforms, which were registered in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 16 “Leases”. This standard considers that a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract transfers the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for a consideration.

F-40

Initial Recognition -

Leases are recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the date the leased asset is available for use.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost including the following:

The amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability.

Any lease payment paid to the lessor before the start date or on the same date.

Direct costs incurred and costs for dismantling or rehabilitation, if any.

Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate could be determined easily, or the incremental interest rate by loans of the lessee, which is the interest rate that the lessee would have to pay for borrowing for a term similar, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value asset by the right-of-use in a similar economic environment with similar terms, guarantees and conditions.

Subsequent recognition -

The right-of-use asset is generally depreciated in a straight-line basis during the shortest period of the asset’s useful life and the lease term. If the Group is reasonably certain of exercising a purchase option, the right-of-use asset depreciates over the useful life of the underlying asset.

The Group has chosen to measure the asset at cost less depreciation and accumulated impairment loss and adjusting any new measurement of the lease liability. Depreciation is calculated in a straight-line basis within the term of the lease.

The liability will be recorded at its amortized cost, that is, it will be increased to reflect the accrued interest, recognized in the item “Interest, returns and similar expenses” in the consolidated statement of income, and the fees paid will be subtracted.

Likewise, the balance of the liability will be reviewed in the following cases:

When there is a change in the expected amount to be paid under a residual value guarantee.

When there is a change in future lease installments to reflect the variation in an index or interest rate.

When there is a change in the terms of the lease.

When there is a change in the evaluation of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

Short-term leases with little significant value are recognized in a straight-line basis as an expense in the “Administrative expenses” in the consolidated statement of income.

F-41

The accounting treatment of lessors continues with a similar model to that of IAS 17; In that sense, lessors continue to perform a classification test to distinguish between financial and operating leases.

Property, furniture and equipment -

Property, furniture and equipment are recorded at historical acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if applicable. Historical acquisition costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquired property, furniture or equipment. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to the consolidated statement of income; significant renewals and improvements are capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits, more than the originally assessed standard of performance, will flow from the use of the acquired property, furniture or equipment.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, which are as follows:

	Years
Buildings and other construction		33
Facilities		10
Furniture and fixtures		10
Vehicles and equipment		5
Computer hardware		4

An item of property, furniture and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the consolidated statement of income.

Assets’ residual value and the selected useful life are periodically reviewed to ensure that they are consistent with current economic benefits and life expectancy.

Investment properties -

Investment properties are held for rentals, capital gains, or both rather than for: (a) use in the production or supply or goods or services or for administrative purposes; or (b) sale in the ordinary course of business. Property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property is recognized at cost before completion.

Investment properties are initially measured at fair value, which is the purchase transaction price, unless otherwise indicated. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement, which includes the purchase price and any other cost directly attributable to the transaction.

For subsequent recognition, an entity shall choose as its accounting policy either the fair value model or the cost model and shall apply that policy to all its investment property. At the date of the consolidated financial statements, the Group has opted for keeping the cost model. Accordingly, investment properties are accounted for at their acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and the accumulated impairment losses, if any.

An entity can opt for recognizing and depreciating separately the components of an investment property or as a single unit for recording and depreciation purposes. The Group recognizes as a single unit each of its investment properties and has estimated a useful life of 33 years for purposes of determining depreciation under the straight-line method.

Rental income is recognized as rents that are accrued under the related rental agreement; depreciation expenses as well as related expenses directly with the maintenance of the leased assets, they are recorded net in the item of “Other Income” in the consolidated statement of income.

F-42

Seized assets, net -

Seized assets are recorded at the lower of cost or estimated market value, which is obtained from valuations made by independent appraisers. Reductions in book values are recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

Business combination -

The acquisition cost is the sum of the consideration paid for the acquisition measured at fair value at the acquisition date and the amount of the share in the non-controlling interest acquired. For each business combination the Group decides whether to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportional share in the identifiable net assets of the acquired. Acquisition-related costs are recognized as expenses and are included within “Administrative expenses” in the consolidated statement of income.

The acquisition of a non-controlling interest is recorded directly in net equity, any difference between the amount paid and the acquired net assets is recorded as an equity transaction. Accordingly, the Group recognizes no additional goodwill after the acquisition of the non-controlling interest, nor does it recognize any profit or loss from the disposal of the non-controlling interest.

If there is a contractual obligation to acquire the shares of the non-controlling interest through a put option, the Group will initially recognize a liability at fair value through profit or loss equivalent to the market value of the interest of the non-controlling interest against the account "Reserves and others” in equity. After its initial recognition, the liability is measured at fair value, recording the changes in the income statement until the option is exercised. If the option expires without being exercised, the liability is derecognized by adjusting the net equity.

If a business combination achieved in stages, the acquisition date and the value of the previous participation of the acquirer is measured again at a fair value at the date of acquisition. The gains or losses arising from such remedy are recognized in profit or loss. Likewise, in accordance with IFRS 3, from the date of acquisition of a company that isn't under common control, the acquirer has a subsequent 12-month period to be able to adjust the initial recognition of goodwill. During 2022 the Group has not carried out business combinations of acquired entities.

Combinations of entities under common control -

F-43

A business combination between entities or businesses under common control is outside the scope of IFRS 3, because it comprises a business combination in which all the entities or businesses that are combined are controlled, ultimately, by the same part or parts, before and after the business combination. In these transactions, the Group recognizes the assets acquired under the interest unification method, whereby the assets and liabilities of the combined companies are reflected at their book values and no goodwill is recognized as a result of the combination.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been presented considering the aforementioned. See Note 2(a).

Intangible assets -

Comprise internally developed and acquired software licenses used by the Group. Acquired software licenses are measured upon initial recognition at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life (between 3 and 5 years).

Intangible assets identified as a consequence of the acquisition of subsidiaries are recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at their fair values determined on the acquisition date and are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life as follows:

	Estimated useful life in years

Customer relationship - Prima AFP (AFP Unión Vida)		20.0
Customer relationship - Credicorp Capital Holding Chile (Inversiones IMT)		22.0
Customer relationship - Edyficar Peru		10.0
Customer relationship - Mibanco		7.0
Customer relationship - Ultraserfinco		9.2
Brand - Mibanco		25.0
Brand - Culqi		5.0
Fund manager contract - Credicorp Capital Colombia	20.0 and 28.0
Fund manager contract - Credicorp Capital Holding Chile (Inversiones IMT)	11.0 and 24.0
Fund manager contract - Ultraserfinco		23.0
Core deposits - Mibanco		6.0
Others	Between 3.0 and 7.5

The period and the amortization method, for intangible assets are reviewed at the end of each period. If the expected useful life differs from previous estimates, the amortization period will be changed accordingly. If there has been a change in the expected pattern of conduct of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset, the amortization method shall be amended to reflect these changes.

Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the consolidated statement of income when the asset is derecognized.

F-44

Goodwill -

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (CGU) that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to these units.

If goodwill has been allocated to a CGU and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill and the disposed assets are included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed of in these circumstances is measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU (or group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than it’s carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Impairment of non-financial assets -

The Group assesses at each reporting date, whether there is an indicator that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of the value of the asset or the CGU less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for each individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.

When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, recent market transactions are considered, if any. If this kind of transactions cannot be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are verified against valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.

For non-financial assets, excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date of whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized.

F-45

Due from customers on banker’s acceptances -

Due from customers on banker’s comprises accounts payable from customers for import and export transactions, whose obligations have been accepted by the Group. The obligations that must be assumed by the Group for such transactions are recorded as liabilities.

Financial guarantees -

In the ordinary course of business, the Group issues financial guarantees, such as letters of credit, guarantees and banker’s acceptances. Financial guarantees are initially recognized at fair value, which is equivalent to the commission initially received, also, letters of credit and guarantees are recorded in the item “Other liabilities” in the consolidated statement of financial position and banker’s acceptances are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group’s liability under each guarantee is measured at the higher of the amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, cumulative amortization recognized in the consolidated statement of income, and the best estimate of expenditure required to settle any financial obligation arising as a result of the financial guarantee.

Any increase in the liability relating to a financial guarantee is included in the consolidated statement of income. The commission received is recognized in “Commissions and fees” in the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis over the life of the granted financial guarantee.

Provisions -

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or implicit) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle said obligation and the amount can be reliable determined.

The expense relating to any provision is presented in the consolidated statement of income net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the specific risks of the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

Contingencies -

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. They are disclosed in the notes, unless the probability of an outflow of resources is remote. Contingent assets are not recorded in the financial statements; they are disclosed if it is probable that an inflow of economic benefits will be realized.

Income tax -

Income tax is computed based on the individual financial statements of each of the Group’s members.

Deferred income tax reflects the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and the amounts determined for tax purposes. Deferred assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to be applied to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or eliminated. The measurement of deferred assets and deferred liabilities reflects the tax consequences that arise from the manner in which Credicorp and its Subsidiaries expect, at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

F-46

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets and liabilities may change, even though there is no change in the amount of the related temporary differences, due to a change in the income tax rate. In this case, the resulting change in deferred tax, corresponding to the change in rate, will be recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items previously recognized outside of the consolidated income statement (either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity).

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized regardless of when the timing differences are likely to reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized when it is likely to exist sufficient tax benefits for the application of temporary difference. At the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, Credicorp and its Subsidiaries assess unrecognized deferred assets and the carrying amount of recognized deferred assets.

Credicorp and its Subsidiaries determine their deferred income tax based on the tax rate applicable to their undistributed earnings; any additional tax on dividend distribution is recorded on the date a liability is recognized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legal right of offset, and the deferred taxes are related to the same taxpaying entity and the same tax authority.

Earnings per share -

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to Credicorp’s equity holders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, excluding the average number of ordinary shares purchased and held as treasury stock, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would have been issued if all potential ordinary shares with dilutive effect have been converted into ordinary shares.

Share-based payment transactions -

The cost of the Group’s remuneration plan is recognized, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (‘the vesting date”).

The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled liquidations at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense is recorded in “Salaries and employee benefits” in the consolidated statement of income.

When the terms of a share-based liquidation are modified, the minimum expense recognized is maintained as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognized for any modification which increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or which is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.

The dilutive effect of the shares granted under this plan is reflected as a share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share, see paragraph (w) above.

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting -

Trading -

The Group negotiates derivative financial instruments in order to meet its customers needs. The Group may also take positions with the expectation of profiting from favorable movements in prices, rates or indexes.

F-47

Part of the transactions with derivatives, which provide effective economic hedges under the Group’s risk management positions, do not qualify for hedge accounting under the specific rules of IFRS 9 and are, therefore, treated as trading derivatives.

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position and subsequently are remeasured at fair value. Fair values are estimated based on the market exchange and interest rates. All derivatives are carried as assets when fair value is positive and as liabilities when fair value is negative. Gain and losses for changes in their fair value are recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

Hedging -

The Group uses derivative instruments to manage exposures to interest rate and foreign currency. To manage particular risks, the Group applies hedge accounting for transactions which meet the specified criteria.

In accordance with IFRS 9, to qualify as hedging operations, all the following conditions must be met:

The hedging relationship consists only of hedging instruments and eligible hedged items.

At the inception of the hedging relationship, there is a designation and formal documentation of the hedging relationship and the entity's risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedging. That documentation will include identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, and how the entity will assess whether the hedging relationship meets the hedge effectiveness requirements.

The hedge relationship meets all the following hedge effectiveness requirements:

There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument.

The effect of credit risk does not predominate over the changes in value that come from that economic relationship.

The coverage ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that derived from the amount of the hedged item that the entity actually hedges and the amount of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that amount of the hedged item.

The accounting treatment is established based on the nature of the hedged item and compliance with hedging criteria.

Cash flow hedges -

The effective portion of the accumulated gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly as part of other comprehensive income in “Cash flow hedge reserve” in the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and it is reclassified to the consolidated statement of income in the same period or periods in which the covered operation affects results; that is, when income or financial expenses related with coverage are registered, or when a forecasted transaction occurs.

The part of the gain or loss in derivatives that represents the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income.

Amounts originally recognized in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to the consolidated statement of income are registered as expenses or income in the cases in which the hedged item is reported.

F-48

If the forecasted transaction or firm commitment is no longer expected to occur, the accumulated gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedge reserve is transferred to the consolidated statement of income. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover, or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, any unrealized accumulated gain or loss previously in the cash flow hedge reserve remains in said reserve until the planned transaction or firm commitment affects profit or loss. At the same time, the derivative is recorded as a trading derivative.

ii)

Fair value hedges -

The change in the fair value of a fair value hedge and the change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged are recorded as a part of the carrying amount of the hedged item and recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortized cost, any adjustment to the carrying amount of these items, as a result of discontinuation of the hedge, will be amortized through the consolidated statement of income over the remaining life of the hedge. Amortization may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.

If the hedged item is derecognized, the unamortized fair amount is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income.

The hedge relationship is terminated when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or when the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the hedge relationship is terminated. For fair value hedges related to items recorded at amortized cost, the difference between the carrying value of the hedged item on termination and the face value is amortized over the remaining term of the original hedge using the effective interest rate. If the hedged item is derecognized, the unamortized fair value adjustment is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income. At the same time, the derivative is recorded as a trading derivative.

iii)

Hedges of net investments in foreign businesses -

Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are recognized for in a similar manner to cash flow hedges.

Any gain or loss on the hedging instrument related to the effective portion of the hedge is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the item “Exchange differences on translation of foreign operations” in the consolidated statement of changes in net equity. The gain or loss related to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income under “Other income” or “Other expenses”.

Accumulated gains and losses in the consolidated statement of changes in net equity are reclassified to the consolidated statement of income when the net investment abroad is disposed or sold partially.

iv)

Embedded derivatives -

Derivatives embedded in host contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives and recorded at fair value if their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contract and said host contract is not held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss.

F-49

Fair value measurement -

In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. Also, the fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk.

If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Group uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The chosen valuation technique incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.

- Level 1:

Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

- Level 2:

Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

- Level 3:

Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

Also, fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost is disclosed in Note 34.8(b).

aa)

Segment reporting -

The Group reports financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments. Reportable segments are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria.

F-50

Operating segments are a component of an entity for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the entity’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in making decisions about how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Group reported, financial information is required to be reported on the same basis as it is used internally for evaluating operating segments’ performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments, Note 31.

ab)

Fiduciary activities, fund management of funds and pension funds -

The Group provides custody, trustee, investment management and advisory services to third parties that result in the holding of assets on their behalf. These assets and income arising thereon are excluded from these consolidated financial statements, as they are not assets of the Group, Note 34.9.

Commissions generated for these activities are included as “Commissions and fees” in the consolidated statement of income.

ac)

Cash and cash equivalents -

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise balances of cash and non-restricted balances with central banks, overnight deposits, interbank funds, time deposits with maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition, excluding restricted cash, see Note 4(a).

Cash collateral pledged as a part of a repurchase agreement is presented in “Cash collateral, reverse repurchase agreement and securities borrowings” in the consolidated statement of financial position, see Note 5(a).

Cash collateral pledged in the negotiation of derivative financial instrument and others are presented in “Other assets” in the consolidated statement of financial position, See Note 13.

ad)

Repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending and borrowing –

F-51

Loans and borrowing transactions are usually collateralized by securities. The transfer of the securities to counterparties is only reflected in the consolidated statement of financial position if the risks and rewards of ownership are also transferred.

ae)

International Financial Reporting Standards issued but not yet effective -

The Group decided not to early adopt the following standards and interpretations that were issued but are not effective as of December 31, 2022:

(i)

IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” -

IFRS 17 was issued in May 2017 as a replacement for IFRS 4 "Insurance Contracts". This standard requires a current measurement model where estimates are remeasured in each reporting period. Contracts are measured using the components of:

Discounted probability weighted cash flows.

An explicit risk adjustment, and.

A contractual service margin that represents the unearned technical utility of the contract which is recognized as revenue during the coverage period.

IFRS 17 will imply fundamental changes in the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of information in insurance and reinsurance contracts, as well as in their related processes. Insurance contracts combine financial and service characteristics, and in many cases, generate long-term variable cash flows. To adequately reflect these characteristics, IFRS 17 combines the measurement of future cash flows with the recording of the results of the insurance contract, during the period in which the service is provided, and requires the separate presentation of the financial results of the results of the provision of the service, allowing the Companies, through the election of an accounting policy option, to recognize such financial results in the income statement or in other comprehensive income.

Under strict governance and participation of the units involved in the processes involved, the Group has made adjustments to its processes, architecture, controls and corporate governance in order to implement the standard, as well as have the necessary financial and management reports.

F-52

In this process, the Group made the decision to use the computer platform of the provider specialized in insurance business worldwide, Fidelity National Information Services - FIS, and has been supported by renowned international consultants. The implementation includes extensive tests carried out and related to the validation of insurance contracts under IFRS 17 in order to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information to be recorded in the Financial Statements.

The adoption of IFRS 17 will have the following impacts depending on the type of risk in which the Group operates:

Equity Risks:

The Group expects a reduction in insurance liabilities as a result of the projection of the claims reserve and its subsequent discount, and a low impact is estimated given the current interest rate environment, as well as the nature of this risk insofar as to the duration of the reservation.

Life Risks:

Regarding the Life businesses, the Group considers that there will be an increase in insurance liabilities due to the effect of interest rates and also, mainly, due to the establishment of an explicit future profit margin known as the contractual service margin.

The Group decided to recognize market changes in interest rates in equity. The choice reflects how the Group accounts for its financial assets under IFRS 9.

IFRS 17 is effective from the financial statements beginning on January 1, 2023, and the effects of applying it for the first time will be recognized in our consolidated statement of financial position on January 1, 2023, date of initial application, restating the financial information of the comparative period.

Based on current estimates, the adoption of IFRS 17 is not expected to have a significant impact on net equity on January 1, 2023.

(ii)

Disclosure of Accounting Policies – Amendments to IAS 1 and Practice

Statement N^o 2 -

IAS stipulated that “significant” accounting policies must be disclosed. With this amendment, there is a specification that disclosure must be for “material” accounting policies. This amendment incorporates the definition of what is considered “information on material accounting policies” and explains how to identify this type of information. Additionally, the amendment clarifies that it is not necessary to divulge information on immaterial accounting policies and if the same is divulged, it should not create confusion about what truly constitutes important accounting information. Consistently, Practice Statement N^o2 was also amended to express judgements on materiality to provide a guide to apply the concept of materiality in accounting policy disclosures.

These amendments will be effective for the annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted.

The Group is currently assessing the impact on the disclosure of the accounting policies.

F-53

(iii)

Amendments to IAS 8 - Definition of Accounting Estimates –

This amendment clarifies how to distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The distinction is important when defining accounting treatment given that changes in accounting estimates recognize future transactions and events prospectively while changes in accounting policies generally apply to past transactions and events retroactively, as is the case with the current period.

Amendments will be in effect for the annual periods reported beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and anticipated adoption is permitted.

The Group is currently assessing the impact that this amendment will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(iv)

Amendments to IAS 12, Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities Arising from a Single Transaction –

These amendments specify that deferred taxes that arise from a single transaction should be recognized if, in their initial recognition, temporary taxable differences and deductibles for the same value arise. This will generally apply to transactions such as leasing (for lessees) and obligation to dismantle or remediate in those situations that will require

recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These amendments must apply to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the comparative period presented. Additionally, it is necessary to recognize deferred tax assets (to the extent that it is probable that they will be utilized) and deferred tax liabilities at the beginning of the first comparative period for all deductible or taxable temporary differences associated with:

Right of use assets and lease liabilities, and

Liabilities for dismantling, restoration and similar and the corresponding contributions are recognized as part of the cost of related assets.

The accumulated effect of these adjustments is recognized in retained earnings or through another component of equity as applicable.

Previously, IAS 12 did not establish any particular accounting treatment for the tax effects of leases that are recognized in the balance sheet and for similar transactions; as such, different approaches are considered acceptable. The entities that are already recognizing deferred taxes on these transactions will not see impacts on their financial statements.

Amendments will be effective for the annual reported periods beginning or after January 1, 2023 and anticipated adoption is permitted.

The Group is currently assessing the impact that this amendment may have on their consolidated financial statements.

(v)

Amendment to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 - Sale or contribution of assets that takes place an investor and its associate or joint venture -

The IASB has made modifications of limited scope to IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”.

F-54

Amendments clarify the accounting treatment of asset sales or contributions between an investor and its associates or joint ventures. They further confirm that the accounting treatment will depend on whether the non-monetary assets sold or contributed to an associate or joint venture constitute a "business" (as defined in IFRS 3 "Business Combinations"). When non-monetary assets constitute a business, the investor will recognize the total gain or loss from the sale or contribution of the assets. If the assets do not meet the definition of a business, the gain or loss is recognized by the investor only in proportion to the investment of the other investors in the joint venture associate. These modifications will be applied prospectively.

In December 2015, IASB decided to postpone the date of application of this amendment until its research project on the equity method has been completed.

Amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods on or after January 1, 2023 and should be applied retrospectively to property, plant and equipment that are made available for use on or after the beginning of the first period in which the entity first applies the amendment.

The Group is currently assessing the impact that this amendment may have on their consolidated financial statements.

There are no other standards and amendments to standardsthat have not yet become effective and are expected to have a significant impact on the Group, either in the current or future periods, as well as on foreseeable future transactions.

Cash, clearing and deposits with Central Banks and Bank of the Republic -

These accounts mainly include the legal cash requirements that Credicorp Subsidiaries must maintain for their obligations to the public. This item comprises the following:

	2022		2021
	S/(000)		S/(000)

Legal cash requirements (i)

Total additional funds		3,753,055		6,672,998
Total		30,205,701		31,245,949

(i)

As of December 31, 2022 cash and deposits that generate interest subject to legal cash requirements in local and foreign currency are subject to an implicit rate of 6.01 percent and 34.55 percent, respectively, on the total balance of obligations subject to legal cash requirements, as required by the BCRP; as of December 31, 2021 4.77 percent and 33.17 percent, respectively.

The reserve funds, which represent the minimum mandatory, do not earn interest; however, the excess of the mandatory reserve deposited in BCRP, earns interests at a nominal rate established by BCRP.

Management considers that the Group has complied with the requirements established by current regulations related to the calculation of the legal reserve.

(ii)

As of December 31, 2022, the Group maintains three “overnight” deposits with the BCRP, of which one is denominated in soles for a total of S/35.0 million and two are denominated in U.S. dollar for a total of US$518.8 million, equivalent to S/1,978.7 million. To that date, the deposit in soles and deposits in U.S. dollar accrue interest at annual rates of 5.25 percent and 4.39 percent, respectively, and have maturities at 4 days.

As of December 31, 2021, the Group maintained four “overnight” deposits with the BCRP, which two were denominated in soles in amount of S/690.0 million and two in U.S. Dollar in amount of US$964.7 million, equivalent to S/3,846.4 million. At said date, deposits in soles and deposits in U.S. Dollar accrued interest at annual rates of 1.85 percent and 0.05 percent, respectively, and had maturities at 3 days.

F-56

(iii)

As of December 31, 2022, the Group maintains four term deposits, which are denominated in soles, accrue interest at an annual rate between 7.30 percent and 7.49 percent and expires on January 3, 2023. As of December 31, 2021, the Group held four term deposits denominated in soles, accruing interest at an annual rate between 2.48 percent and 2.49 percent and expired between January 3 and January 4, 2022. The decrease in term deposits at the BCRP is mainly influenced by higher rate levels at the market level, this generates a lower surplus to place in term deposits with the BCRP and, in general, a lower level of liquidity at the bank level.

Deposits with local and foreign banks -

Deposits with local and foreign banks mainly consist of balances in soles and U.S. Dollar; these are cash in hand and earn interest at market rates. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 Credicorp and its Subsidiaries do not maintain significant deposits with any bank.

The variation in the fair value of the investments is mainly due to the increase in interest rates in soles and in foreign currency, which negatively affected the investment portfolios at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2022. Credicorp's Management has determined that the unrealized losses of investments at fair value through other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are of a temporal nature; considering factors such as the planned strategy in relation to the security or portfolio identified, the related guarantee and the credit rating of the issuers. During 2022, as a result of the evaluation of the impairment loss of investments at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income, the Group has recorded a provision for credit loss of S/58.3 million (provision for credit loss of S/6.8 million ended December 31, 2021), which is presented in the caption "Net gain in securities", see note 24 of the consolidated statement of income. Furthermore, Management has decided and has the ability to hold each of these investments for a period of time to allow an early recovery in fair value, even before their sufficient recovery or maturity.

As of December 31, 2022, the balance corresponds to certificates for US$1.8 million, equivalent to S/6.7 million, in soles for S/5.9 million; and in other currencies, equivalent to S/ 573.2 million issued mainly by the financial systems of Colombia and Bolivia. As of December 31, 2021, the balance comprises to certificates for US$0.67 million, equivalent to S/2.7 million, in soles for S/6.8 million; and in other currencies, equivalent to S/ 615.1 million issued mainly by the financial system of Colombia and Bolivia.

As of December 31, 2021, the amount amounted to S/75.5 million, see note 13(c); Through said CCS, the certificates were economically converted into soles at a fixed rate.

Due to the increase in market liquidity due to government programs such as Reactiva Perú and the successive withdrawals of Pension Fund Administrators (hereinafter AFPs), approved by Congress since 2020, Banco de Crédito del Perú had to incorporate changes to the business model of investments at fair value with change in other comprehensive income to contribute to the matching of its assets and liabilities. In October 2022, as a result of this change, the Bank has reclassified a portfolio of investments at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income to investments at amortized cost for S/2,232.7 million and has reversed the unrealized net loss of this portfolio recorded in other comprehensive income of equity net for S/549.2 million, in order to record it as if it had always been a portfolio classified at amortized cost from the beginning.

The change in the business model and the reclassification are in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments", see note 3(f)(iv), and have been approved by the Risk Management Committee and the of Treasury Risks and ALM of the Bank.

The expected loss of investments at amortized cost as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is S/3.9 million and S/2.8 million, respectively.

(i)

As of December 31, 2022, said bonds have maturities between January 2023 and February 2042; accruing interest at an effective annual rate between 6.65 percent and 8.13 percent per year for bonds issued in soles, between 2.59 percent and 16.30 percent for bonds issued in U.S. dollar, and between 5.66 percent and 11.24 percent per year for bonds issued in other currencies. As of December 31, 2021, they have maturities between January 2022 and February 2042, accruing interest at an effective annual interest rate between 3.62 percent and 6.77 percent for bonds denominated in soles, between 0.71 percent and 4.50 percent for bonds issued in U.S. dollar and between 0.0 percent and 2.96 percent on bonds issued in other currencies.

F-67

As of December 31, 2021, the instruments with an interest rate of 0.00 percent correspond to bonds issued by the Colombian Government, whose emission indicators at the acquisition date were at very low levels; however, MiBanco Colombia invested in these instruments because it is a Colombian company that must invest in them in accordance with local regulations, with the objective that the funds acquired by the Colombian Government be used for the development and incentive of certain economic sectors.

The variation in the fair value of investments at amortized cost is mainly due to the increase in interest rates in soles and in foreign currency, which negatively affected the fair value of this portfolio as of December 31, 2022. Credicorp’s Management has determined that, as of December 31, 2022, the difference between the amortized cost and the fair value of these investments is of a temporary nature and Credicorp has the intention and ability to hold each of these investments until maturity.

As of December 31, 2022, the Group has investment repurchase agreements at amortized cost for an estimated fair value of S/3,540.5 million. As of December 31, 2021, the amount amounted to S/3,854.0 million, whose related liability is presented in the caption "Accounts payable for repurchase agreements and securities lending" of the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position, see note 5(c).

(ii)

As of December 31, 2022, there are 57 certificates of Annual Acknowledgment of Work Progress Payment - CRPAO (89 CRPAO as of December 31, 2021), issued by the Peruvian State to finance projects and concessions. Said issuance is a mechanism established in the concession contract signed between the State and the concessionaire, which allows the latter to obtain financing to continue with the work undertaken. Said investment matures between January 2023 and April 2026, accruing interest at an effective annual rate between 6.20 percent and 7.59 percent (between January 2022 and April 2026, accruing interest at an effective annual rate between 2.32 percent and 4.26 percent as of December 31, 2021).

The increase in bonds at amortized cost is due to the fact that, in October 2022, Banco de Crédito del Perú reclassified its portfolio of bonds at fair value through other comprehensive income at amortized cost due to a change in its business model, see note 6(b).

(*)

The movement includes the following effects:

(i)

calibrations to the PD, LGD and EAD models,

(ii)

updates to macroeconomic models and projections,

(iii)

increase or decrease of credit risk of loans due to stage changes,

(iv)

increase or decrease of credit risk of loans that remain in the same stage.

(**)

The movement in the allowance for loan losses of the period 2022 includes the allowance for direct, indirect loans and due from customers on banker’s acceptances for approximately S/7,872.4 million and S/658.6 million, respectively (approximately S/8,477.3 million and S/593.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021). The expected loan loss for indirect loan is included in “Other liabilities” of the consolidated statement of financial position, Note 13(a). In Management’s opinion, the allowance for loan losses recorded as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 has been established in accordance with IFRS 9 and is sufficient to cover losses on the loan portfolio.

Gross balance of the direct and indirect credit portfolio and bank acceptances:

At the end of December 2022, the gross balance of the loan portfolio decreased in relation to the end of December 2021. The decrease was mainly due to (i) the amortization of the Reactiva Peru loans in Comerciales BCP, (ii) the write-offs in Consumption BCP and Pequeña y Microempresa Mibanco Perú, and (iii) the drop in the exchange rate. The aforementioned effects were partially offset by the increase in disbursements in Pequeña y Microempresa Mibanco Perú, Consumo BCP and Hipotecario BCP.

Allowance for credit loss for direct and indirect loans and bank acceptances:

At the end of December 2022, the provision for credit loss of the loan portfolio decreased in relation to the end of December 2021. This decrease was mainly due to the flow of write-offs carried out during 2022, which mainly impacted the BCP consumer segment and to the small and microenterprise segment in both BCP and Mibanco Perú; In addition, it was due, although to a lesser extent, to the decrease in the US$/Sol exchange rate. The above effects were partially offset by the deterioration of the macroeconomic component, which had a greater impact on the consumer and small and microenterprise segments at BCP, and by entering segments of greater profitability and risk in small and microenterprises at BCP.

Interest rates on loans are set considering the rates prevailing in the markets where the Group’s subsidiaries operate.

A portion of the loan portfolio is collateralized with guarantees received from customers, which mainly consist of mortgages, bonds, securities and industrial and mercantile pledges.

(i)

As of December 31, 2022 the prices of fixed and variable income instruments have decreased due to the moderation in inflation due to a less tightening of the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve Board (FED).

The lower prices of food, energy, ocean freight, and rentals in the United States of America were reflected in the latest total inflation figures for October, November and December 2022, reaching records of 7.7 percent, 7.1 percent and 6.5 percent, respectively. The fall in investment prices is affected by the local and European economic environment and the increase in the reference rate of the FED.

The offsetting of this effect is included in the technical reserve adjustment, which is part of the item “Net premiums earned” of the consolidated statement of income, see note 25 (a).

Goodwill balance of Mibanco Colombia, Credicorp Capital Colombia S.A, Tenpo SPA and Tenpo Technologies SpA. is affected by the volatility effect of the local exchange rate currency of the country in which they operate against the exchange rate of functional currency of Credicorp Ltd. and subsidiaries.

As of December 31, 2022 the group has evaluated the impairment of goodwill by making an estimate based on the information available, concluding that there is no evidence of impairment at said date; therefore, during the twelve - month period ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Group did not record any impairment loss.

The following table summarizes the key assumptions used for the calculation of fair value less selling costs in 2022 and 2021:

Credicorp Capital Colombia		3.80		12.90

Atlantic Security Holding Corporation		2.00		11.00
Tenpo (**)		2.00		25.00
Compañía Incubadora de Soluciones Móviles S.A - Culqi		2.00		25.00

(*) As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, it comprises to the discount rates used to determine the recoverable value of the cash flows that correspond to the general and life insurance business lines.

(**) As of December 31,2022, and 2021, it comprises to the discount rates corresponds to the discount rates used to determine the recoverable value of the flows that correspond to the business lines of Tenpo SpA and Tenpo Technologie SpA.

Five or ten years of cash flows, depending on the business maturity, were included in the discounted cash flow model. The growth rate estimates are based on historic performance and management’s expectations of market development. A long-term growth rate to perpetuity has been determined taking into account forecasts included in industry reports.

Growth rates used this year are considering mainly two points of prices adjustments compared to 2021: (1) the update of long-term inflation expectations and (2) the update of businesses growth expectations (this one is the case of the microfinance companies).

F-84

Discount rates represent the current market assessment of the specific risks to each CGU. The discount rate is derived from the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). The cost of equity is derived from the expected return on investment by the Group’s investors, specific risk incorporated by applying individual comparable beta factors. The discount rates used in 2022 are higher than previous year level. This increase is explained by the update of the discount rates parameters. The biggest adjustments are mainly related to the increase of the free risk discount rate; the difference of inflation between the economies where the analyzed vehicles operate, and United States, and the higher perceived risk in the region (incorporated in the rate as a bigger country risk)

The valuation includes assumptions about several key parameters of the entities. The parameter sensitivity exercises, growth and discount rates mainly, show scenarios in which said value is higher, and some scenarios with a non-material impairment in assets value. We consider that the amounts presented in the financial statements are appropriate and do not require any provision for impairment of our investments, given the accuracy of the assumptions with the information available at this time; considering that the valuation process occurs in an environment of high rates and with no signs of growth contraction.

For entities with high risk of impairment, it is estimated that a change of up to 0.5 percent in the growth rate assumption and up to 0.5 percent in the discount rate assumption by 2022 (maintaining all other assumptions constant) would result in a decrease in the recoverable value of between S/13.0 million and S/45.8 million, which would generate non-material impairment.

The key assumptions described above may change if the conditions of the economy and market change. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Group estimates that reasonably possible changes in these assumptions would not cause the recoverable amount of all CGUs to decline below their carrying amount.

(*) As of December 31, 2022, the life insurance technical reserves include the mathematical reserves of annuities amounting to S/6,254.0 million (S/ 6,759.7 million as of December 31, 2021).

Insurance claims reserves represent reported claims and an estimate for incurred but non reported claims (IBNR). Reported claims are adjusted on the basis of technical reports received from independent adjusters.

As of December 31, 2022, the reserves for direct claims include reserves for IBNR for life, general and health insurance for an amount of S/933.0 million, S/29.0 million and S/111.0 million, respectively (S/825.0 million, S/38.9 million and S/109.9 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021).

Insurance claims to be paid by reinsurers and co-insurers represent ceded claims, which are presented in “Accounts receivable from reinsurers and coinsurers” of the consolidated statement of financial position, See note 9(b).

Claims reserves have had a slight reduction, mainly due to lower reporting of COVID-19 cases. Likewise, the increase in technical reserves for premiums is mainly due to the increase in new sales in the Income line.

F-97

As of December 31, 2022, the effect due to the COVID-19 pandemic continues, IBNR reserves were calculated in two parts: a) IBNR reserve for regular claims and b) IBNR reserve for expected excess mortality (deaths above the average of cases of pre-pandemic months).

In general, the claims reserves have been estimated with prudential criteria due to the uncertainty in the claims rate caused by the pandemic that began in 2020 and continues in effect in 2021 and to a lesser extent in 2022.

Technical reserves include reserves for future benefit obligations under current life and personal accident insurance; and from unearned premium reserves in the proportion of written premiums that are allocable to the unexpired portion of the related hedging periods.

The sensitivity of the estimates used by the Group to measure its insurance risks is represented primarily by the life insurance risks; the main variables as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, are the interest rates and the mortality tables used. The Group has evaluated the changes in its most significant reserves related to life insurance contracts included in retirement, disability and survival annuities reserves of +/- 100 bps of the interest rates and of +/- 5 bps of the mortality factors, with the following results:

19	TAX SITUATION

Credicorp is not subject to income tax or any taxes on capital gains, equity or property in Bermuda. Credicorp Peruvian subsidiaries are subject to the Peruvian tax regime.

The income tax rate in Peru as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was 29.5 percent of the taxable income after calculating the profit sharing, which is determined using a rate of 5.0 percent.

The income tax rate in Bolivia is 25.0 percent as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Financial entities have an additional rate if the ROE exceeds 6.0 percent; in that case, they must consider an additional 25.0 percent, with which the rate would be 50.0 percent. Situation that as of the 2021 administration, was also established for brokerage firms, investment fund management companies and insurance entities.

With the change in Chile's tax legislation in 2020, two new regimes currently in force are established: the general regime and the Pro SME regime, for smaller companies. Credicorp Capital Holding Chile, like all its subsidiaries, is taxed under the general tax regime, whose first category income tax rate for domiciled legal entities remains at 27.0 percent as of December 31, 2022.

On the other hand, natural or legal persons not domiciled in Chile will be subject to a tax called “Additional income tax” whose rates range between 4.0 percent and 35.0 percent, depending on the nature of the rent. Additionally, Chile has signed agreements to avoid double taxation with different countries, so that certain income could be released from withholding taxes or for the use of reduced rates.

Additionally, the additional rate will be applicable only to colombian financial institutions that in the corresponding tax year have a taxable income equal to or greater than 120,000 Tax Value Unit ("UVT"), which as of December 31, 2022 is equivalent to a total of S/3.6 million and S/4.7 million as of December 31, 2021. In this sense, Credicorp Capital Colombia, Credicorp Capital Fiduciaria and MiBanco Colombia must pay income tax taking into consideration the above.

The Peruvian Tax Authority has the right to review and, if necessary, amend the annual income tax returns filed by Peruvian subsidiaries up to four years after their filing date. Income tax returns of the major subsidiaries open for examination by the tax authority are as follows:

Banco de Crédito del Perú			2016 to 2021
MiBanco, Banco de la Microempresa			2017 to 2021
Pacífico Compañía de Seguros y Reaseguros			2018 to 2021
Credicorp Capital Servicios Financieros			2018 to 2021
Credicorp Capital Perú			2018 to 2021
Credicorp Capital Holding Perú			2018 to 2021

It is important to mention that the Peruvian Tax Authority is auditing the Income Tax declaration of 2018 of Banco de Crédito del Perú. Additionally, Mibanco has a claim process to the Tax authority for 2014 period, it implies S/4.8 million, in the present, this process is starting.

F-116

The Bolivian, Chilean and Colombian Tax Authorities have the power to review and, if applicable, make a new determination for the income tax the subsidiaries to Credicorp located in said countries, upon presentation of their Income Tax declarations. Additionally, in the case of Colombia, a period of 6 years was established for the taxpayers obliged to apply Transfer Prices or taxpayers who report tax losses.

The annual income tax declarations pending examination by the overseas tax authorities are the following:

Banco de Crédito de Bolivia	2014 to 2021
MiBanco Colombia	2019 to 2021
Credicorp Capital Colombia	2016 to 2021
Credicorp Capital Holding Chile	2020 to 2021

Since tax regulations are subject to interpretation by the different Tax Authorities where Credicorp’s subsidiaries are located, it is not possible to determine at the present date whether any significant additional liabilities may arise from any eventual tax examinations of the Credicorp’s subsidiaries. Any resulting unpaid taxes, tax penalties or interest that may arise will be recognized as expenses in the year in which they are determined. However, Management of Credicorp and its Subsidiaries and their legal counsel consider that any additional tax assessments would not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Reference values of operations with derivatives are recorded in off-balance sheet accounts in the committed currency, as shown in note 13(c).

F-117

In the normal course of their business, the Group’s banking subsidiaries are party to transactions with off-balance sheet risk. These transactions expose them to credit risk in addition to the amounts recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Credit risk for contingent credits is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss because one of the parties to a financial instrument fails to comply with the terms of the contract. The risk of credit losses is represented by the contractual amounts specified in the related contracts. The Group applies the same credit policies in making contingent commitments and other obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments (Note 7(a)), including the requirement to obtain collateral when it is deemed necessary.

Collateral held varies, but may include deposits in financial institutions, securities or other assets. Many of the contingent transactions reach maturity without any performance being required; therefore, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Lines of credit include consumer loans and other consumer loan facilities (credit card receivables) granted to customers and are cancelable upon related notice to the customer.

Likewise, this growth is partially offset by the increase in financial expenses that is affected by the same increase in market rates.

As of December 31, 2022, the decrease in net life insurance claims is mainly due to a lower claim rate of real cases due to COVID-19 for S/466.5 million, release of IBNR for S/69.8 million and other minors for S/ 54.6 million. As of December 31, 2021, the increase in net claims for life insurance is mainly due to the increase in claims in real cases due to COVID-19 for S/335.2 million, higher claims in credit life for S/49.7 million, annuities for S/30.9 million, Complementary Risk Work Insurance (“SCTR”) for S/30.3 million as a result of the normalization of activities regarding the limitation of activities due to the 2020 pandemic and other minors for S/87.0 million.

As of December 31, 2022, the increase in net claims for general insurance corresponds to a higher claim rate of vehicles for S/38.2 million, transportation for S/16.6 million and other minor claims for S/8.3 million. As of December 31, 2021, the restrictions established by the government in relation to circulation and capacity in commercial activities began to be less rigid, which led to a gradual increase in claims in the general insurance business, but without reaching pre-pandemic levels, mainly in the Auto lines and in the Mandatory Traffic Accident Insurance (“SOAT” by its acronym in Spanish).

F-139

Risk appetite -

Based on corporate risk management, The Board of Directors of Grupo Crédito approves the risk appetite framework to define the maximum level of risk that the organization is willing to take as it seeks its strategic and financial objectives, maintaining a corporate vision in individual decisions of each entity. This Risk Appetite framework is based on “core” and specific metrics:

“Core” metrics are intended to preserve the organization’s strategic pillars, defined as solvency, liquidity, profit and growth, income stability and balance sheet structure, no financial and cybersecurity risks.

Specific metrics objectives are intended to monitor on a qualitative and quantitative basis the different risks, to which the Group is exposed, as well as define a tolerance threshold of each of those risks, so the risk profile set by the Board is preserved and any risk focus is anticipated on a more granular basis.

Risk appetite is instrumented through the following elements:

Risk appetite statement: It establishes explicit general principles and the qualitative statements which complement the risk strategy.

Metrics scorecards: These are used to define the levels of risk exposure in the different strategic pillars.

Limits: They allow control over the risk-taking process within the tolerance threshold established by the Board of Directors. They also provide accountability for the risk-taking process and define guidelines regarding the target risk profile.

Government scheme: It seeks to guarantee compliance of the framework through different roles and responsibilities assigned to the units involved.

The appetite is integrated into the processes of strategic and capital guidelines, as well as in the definition of the annual budget, facilitating the strategic decision making of the organization.

Risk concentration -

Concentrations arise when a reduced and representative number of all of the counterparties of the Group are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic and political conditions among others.

In order to avoid excessive concentrations of risk, the policies and procedures include specific guidelines and limits to guarantee a diversified portfolio.

F-140

34.1	Credit risk -

The Group takes on exposure to credit risk, which is the probability of suffering losses caused by debtors or counterparties failing to comply with payment obligations in on or off the balance sheet exposures.

Credit risk is the most important risk for the Group’s business; therefore, Management carefully manages its exposure to credit risk. Credit exposures mainly arise from lending activities that lead to direct loans; they also result from investment activities. There is also credit risk in off-balance sheet financial instruments, such as contingent credits (indirect loans and due from customers on acceptances), which expose Credicorp to risks similar to direct loans. Likewise, credit risk arises from derivative financial instruments that present positive fair values. Finally, all exposure to credit risk (direct or indirect) is mitigated by the control processes and policies.

As part of managing this type of risk, provisions for impairment of its portfolio are assigned as of the date of the statement of financial position.

Credit risk levels are defined based on risk exposure limits, which are frequently monitored. Said limits are established in relation to one debtor or group of debtors, geographical and industry segments. Furthermore, the risk limits by product, industry sector and by geographical segment are approved by the Risk Committee of Credicorp.

Exposure to credit risk is managed through regular analysis of the ability of debtors and potential debtors to meet payments of principal and interest on its obligations and by changing the credit limits when it is appropriate. Other specific control measures are outlined below:

(i)

Collateral -

The Group employs a range of policies and practices to mitigate credit risk. The most traditional of these is collateralization which is common practice. The Group implements guidelines on the acceptability of specific classes of collateral or credit risk mitigation. The main types of collateral obtained are as follows:

For loans and advances, collateral includes, among others, mortgages on residential properties; liens on business assets such as plants, inventory and receivables; and liens on financial instruments such as debt securities and equity securities.

Long-term loans and financing to corporate entities are generally guaranteed. Loans to micro business generally have no collateral. In order to minimize credit loss, the Group will seek additional collateral from the counterparty as soon as impairment indicators arise.

For repurchase agreements and securities lending, collateral consists of fixed income instruments, cash and loans.

Collateral held as security for financial assets other than loans is determined by the nature of the instrument. Debt securities, treasury and other eligible bills are generally unsecured, with the exception of assets backed securities and similar instruments, which are secured by portfolios of financial instruments.

Management monitors the market value of collateral, requests additional collateral in accordance with the underlying agreement, and monitors the market value of collateral obtained during its review of the adequacy of the allowance for impairment losses. As part of the Group’s policies, the recovered goods are sold in seniority order. The proceeds of the sale are used to reduce or amortize the outstanding credit. In general, the Group does not use recovered assets for its operational purposes.

F-141

(ii)

Derivatives -

The amount subject to credit risk is limited to the current and potential fair value of instruments that are favorable to the Group (fair value is positive). In the case of derivatives this is only a small fraction of the contract, or notional values used to express the volume of instruments outstanding. This credit risk exposure is managed as a portion of the total credit limits with customers, together with potential exposures from market movements. Collateral or other security is not usually obtained for this type of risk exposure.

(iii)

Credit-related commitments -

The primary purpose of these instruments is to ensure that funds are available to a customer as required. Guarantees and letters of credit have the same credit risk as direct loans. Documentary and commercial letters of credit - which are written undertakings by the Group on behalf of a customer authorizing a third party to draw drafts on the Group up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions - are collateralized by the underlying shipments of goods to which they relate and therefore have less risk than a direct loan. The Group has no mandatory commitments to extend credit.

The maximum exposure to credit risk as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 before the effect of mitigation through any collateral, is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets indicated in Notes 34.8(a), 34.8(b) and the contingent credits detailed in Note 21(a).

Credit risk management for loans -

Credit risk management is mainly based on the rating and scoring internal models of each company of the Group. In Credicorp, quantitative and qualitative analysis are made for each client, regarding their financial position, credit behavior in the financial system and the market in which they operate or are located. This analysis is carried out continuously to characterize the risk profile of each operation and client with a credit position in the Group.

In the Group, a loan is internally classified as past due according to three criteria: the number of days past due based on the contractually agreed due date, the subsidiary and the type of credit. The detail is shown below:

Banco de Crédito del Perú, Mibanco y Solución Empresa Administradora Hipotecaria internally classify a loan as past due

For corporate, large and medium companies, when it has more than 15 days in arrears.

For small and microbusiness when it has more than 30 days in arrears.

For overdrafts when it has more than 30 days in arrears.

For consumer, mortgage and leasing operations, installments are internally classified as past due when they are between 30 and 90 days in arrears; after 90 days, the pending loan balance is considered past due.

Mibanco Colombia internally classifies a loan as past due:

For commercial loans when it has more than 90 days in arrears.

For microbusiness loans when it has more than 60 days in arrears.

For consumer loans when it has more than 60 days in arrears.

For mortgage loans when it has more than 30 days in arrears.

F-142

ASB Bank Corp. internally classifies a loan as past due when it has 1 or more days in arrears.

Banco de Crédito de Bolivia internally classifies a loan as past due when it has 30 or more days in arrears.

Estimate for the expected credit loss -

The measurement of the expected credit loss is based on the product of the following risk parameters: (i) probability of default (PD), (ii) loss given default (LGD), and (iii) exposure at default (EAD); discounted at the reporting date using the effective interest rate. The definition of the parameters is presented below:

Probabilidad de incumplimiento (PD): It is a credit rating measure that is given internally to a client with the objective of estimating its probability of default within a specific time horizon. The process of obtaining the PD is carried out considering three main components: (i) the risk observed at the portfolio level, (ii) the macroeconomic perspectives of the main countries where Credicorp operates and (iii) the individual risk of each credit, which It is measured through rating and scoring tools.

The Group considers that a financial instrument is in default if it meets the following conditions, according to the type of asset:

Consumer products, credit card and SME: if the client, at some certain point, presents arrears equal to or greater than 60 days and/or has operations that are refinanced, restructured, in pre-judicial, judicial proceedings or written off.

Mortgage products: if the client, at some certain point, presents arrears equal to or greater than 120 days and/or has operations that are refinanced, restructured, in pre-judicial, judicial proceedings or written off.

Commercial products: if the client, at some certain point, is in the Collections portfolio, or has a risk classification of Deficient, Doubtful or Loss, or has operations that are refinanced, in pre-judicial, judicial proceedings or written off. Also, a client can be considered as default if it shows signs of significant qualitative impairment.It should be noted that, for commercial debtors with the highest debt that are classified in default, Risk Management performs an individual review to determine the expected loss in each case, in which it considers: (i) knowledge of the specific situation of the client, (ii) the coverage of real guarantees, (iii) the financial information available, (iv) the conditions of the sector in which the company operates, (v) among others.

Investments: if the instrument has a default rating according to external rating agencies such as Fitch, Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s, or if it has an indicator of arrears equal to or greater than 90 days. In addition, an issuer can be considered as default if it shows signs of significant qualitative impairment or if it is in default according to the definition for Commercial products. When an issuer is classified as default, all its instruments are also classified as Default, that is, in stage 3.

Loss given default (LGD): this is a measurement which estimates the severity of the loss that would be incurred at the time of the default. It has two approaches in the estimate of the severity of the loss, according to the stage of the client:

LGD workout: this is the real loss of the clients that arrived at the stage of default. The recoveries and costs of each one of the operations are used to calculate this parameter (includes open and closed recovery processes).

F-143

LGD ELBE (expected loss best estimate): this is the loss of the contracts in a default situation based on the time in arrears of the operation (the longer the operation is in default, the greater will be the loss).

Exposure at default (EAD): this is a measurement which estimates the exposure at the time of the client’s default, considering changes in future exposure, for example, in the case of prepayments and/or greater utilization of unused credit lines.

The estimate of the risk parameters considers information regarding the actual conditions, as well as the projections of future macroeconomic events and conditions in three scenarios (base, optimistic and pessimistic), which are weighted to obtain the expected credit loss.

The fundamental difference between the expected credit loss of a loan allocated in stage 1 and stage 2 is the PD’s time horizon. The estimates in stage 1 use a PD with a maximum time horizon of 12 months, while those in stage 2 use a PD measured for the remaining lifetime of the instrument. The estimates in stage 3 are carried out based on an LGD “best estimate”.

For those portfolios that are not material and/or do not have specific credit scoring models, the option was to extrapolate the expected credit loss ratio of portfolios with comparable characteristics.

The main methodological calibrations made in the internal credit risk models during 2022 were:

PD models: in accordance with our internal governance scheme, throughout 2022 we still monitor the performance of the PD models and implement the necessary calibrations to maintain a proper measurement of the credit risk of our loan portfolio.

LGD models: throughout 2022, we calibrated in a comprehensive manner the LGD models of the Retail and SME portfolios in order to maintain an adequate level of precision in estimating the loss at the time of default. This calibration included the use of data comprising the observed behavior during the pandemic, the updating of the methodological assumptions and certain revisions to improve the consideration of the guarantees of impaired mortgage loans in the measurement of the recovery rate.

Prospective information -

The measurement of the expected credit loss for each stage and the evaluation of significant increase in credit risk consider information on previous events and current conditions, as well as reasonable projections based on future events and economic conditions.

For the estimation of the risk parameters (PD, LGD, EAD), used in the calculation of the expected credit loss in Phase 1 and Phase 2, the significance of the macroeconomic variables (or their variations) that have greater influence in each portfolio. which give a better prospective and systemic vision to the estimation, based on econometric techniques. Each macroeconomic scenario used in the calculation of the expected credit loss considers projections of relevant macroeconomic variables, such as the gross domestic product (GDP), terms of trade, inflation, among others, for a period of 3 years and a long-term projection.

The expected credit loss is a weighted estimate that considers three future macroeconomic scenarios (base, optimistic, pessimistic). These scenarios, as well as the probability of occurrence of each one, are projections provided by the internal team of Economic Studies and approved by Senior Management; these projections are made for the main countries where Credicorp operates. The design of the scenarios is reviewed quarterly. All considered scenarios are applied to portfolios subject to expected credit loss with the same probabilities.

F-144

Changes from one stage to another:

The classification of an instrument as stage 1 or stage 2 depends on the concept of “significant increase in credit risk” at the reporting date compared to the origin date. This classification is updated monthly. As the IFRS 9 states, this classification depends on the following criteria:

An account is classified in stage 2 if it has more than 30 days in arrears.

Additionally, significant risk increase thresholds were established based on absolute and relative thresholds that depend on the level of risk in which the instrument originated. The thresholds differ for each of the portfolios considered.

Additional qualitative reviews are carried out based on the risk segmentation used in the management of Retail Banking and an individual review is carried out in Wholesale Banking.

Additionally, all those accounts classified as default at the reporting date, according to the definition used by the Group, are considered as stage 3.

Evaluations of significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition and credit impairment are carried out independently on each reporting date.

Wholesale banking assets can be moved in both directions from one stage to another; in this regard, a financial asset that migrated to stage 2 will return to stage 1 if its credit risk did not increase significantly from its initial recognition until a subsequent reporting period. Likewise, an asset that is in stage 3 will return to stage 2 if the asset is no longer considered to be impaired (according to our definition of default) during a certain number of subsequent reporting periods.

On the other hand, Retail Banking assets that migrated to Phase 2 will return to Phase 1 if their credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition during a certain number of subsequent reporting periods (cure period). In the case of assets housed in Phase 3, these will not return to Phase 2 except for refinanced loans, which will return to Phase 2 if good payment behavior is demonstrated during a certain number of subsequent reporting periods.

Expected life -

For the instruments in stage 2 or 3, the allowance for loan losses will cover the expected credit loss during the expected time of the remaining lifetime of the instrument. For most instruments, the expected life is limited to the remaining contractual life, adjusted by expected anticipated payments. In the case of revolving products, a statistical analysis was carried out to determine what would be the expected life period.

The following is a summary of the direct credits classified into three important groups and their respective allowance for loan losses for each type of loan; it is important to note that impaired loans are loans in default that are in stage 3. Additionally, it should be noted that, in accordance with IFRS 7, the total balance of the loan is considered overdue when the debtor has failed to make a payment at its contractual maturity.

(i)

Loans neither past due nor impaired, which comprise those direct loans which currently do not have characteristics of delay in payments and which are not in default.

(ii)

Past due but not impaired loans, which comprise all of the direct loans of customers who are not in default but have failed to make a payment at its contractual maturity, according to IFRS 7.

(iii)

Impaired loans, those direct loans considered to be in stage 3 or default, as detailed in Note 34.1(c).

The general explanation of the variations in the allowance for loan losses is found in Note 7(c).

At Credicorp, we separate renegotiated loans into two groups, focusing on operations that have suffered a significant increase in credit risk since their disbursement, which has generated modifications to the original loan agreement. Both groups are defined below:

Refinanced loans: these are loans that have undergone modifications in the initial loan agreement (term and interest rate), according to the accounting definition.

Renegotiated loans due to the COVID-19 pandemic: these are loans for which, due to the pandemic, the SBS and other local regulators have established that certain benefits be granted, and that Credicorp has also voluntarily granted to its clients (grace periods, debt consolidation, etc.), which were not in the initial credit agreements. It should be noted that these loans were granted mainly during 2020 and 2021.

The amount of the gross balance of the portfolio and provision of the renegotiated credits of Credicorp is shown below. The presentation is made for each of the two groups defined above and by opening the balances by stage. It should be noted that for the construction of the tables, the information of the three subsidiaries that concentrate more than 95.0 percent of the balance of renegotiated loans (BCP, Mibanco and BCB) has been considered.

As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, renegotiated loans and their expected credit loss are composed as follows:

	2022				2021

On the other hand, the breakdown of direct loans classified by maturity is shown below, according to the following criteria:

(i)

Current loans, which comprise those direct loans which do not currently have characteristics of delay in payment, nor are they in default or stage 3, according to the rules of IFRS 9.

(ii)

Current but impaired loans, which comprise those direct loans which do not currently have characteristics of delay in payment, but are in default or stage 3, according to IFRS 9.

(iii)

Loans with payment delay of one day or more but that are not past due according to our internal guidelines, which comprise those direct loans of customers who have failed to make a payment at its contractual maturity, that is, with at least one day past due. However, the days of delay in payment are insufficient to be considered as past due under the Group’s internal criteria.

(iv)

Past due loans under internal criteria.

The total of the concepts: loans with a delay of payment from the first day and the amounts of the internal overdue loans reflect the totality of “past due” loans consistent with IFRS 7.

Macroeconomic scenario -

The expected credit loss is a weighted estimate of three macroeconomic scenarios: base, optimistic and pessimistic, that are calculated with macroeconomic projections provided by the internal team of Economic Studies and approved by the Senior Management. The local and international information flows available during the analysis period are used to feed projections, which reflect the fact that Peru is a small and open economy, and in this context approximately 60.0 percent of the volatility in economic growth is driven by external factors, including terms of trade, the growth of Peru’s trading partners; and the external interest rates. Information on each of these factors is gathered to construct each scenario for the next three years.

The variables mentioned above, together with local variables (fiscal and monetary variables), are incorporated in the economic models. In this regard two types of models are used:

(i)

Structural projection model.

(ii)

Financial programming model.

The first one is a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model, which is constructed with expectations. The second is built with the main identities of national accounts in accordance with the financial programming methodology designed by the IMF (International Monetary Fund) and the methodologies used by a battery of econometric models.

Through this process, projections of GDP growth, inflation, exchange rate and other macroeconomic variables are obtained for the years 2022, 2023 and 2024. We expect GDP to grow around 2.3 percent in 2023 (2.8 percent by 2022) due to:

Lower global growth.

ii)

Lagged effect on activity as a result of monetary tightening (increase this year in interest rates in dollars and soles by the Central Banks).

iii)

Accumulated inflation 2021-2023 close to 20 percent that erodes the purchasing power of the consumer.

iv)

Drop in public investment due to the change of subnational authorities.

Deterioration of private investment in the absence of large new projects and weak business expectations.

vi)

Post-Covid-19 rebound effect is exhausted and is limited almost only to international inbound tourism.

F-149

For the period 2022 -2024, probabilities of 50.0 percent, 25.0 percent, and 25.0 percent were considered for the baseline, optimistic, and pessimistic scenarios, respectively (60.0 percent, 30.0 percent, and 10.0 percent, respectively, at the end of December 2021). The probabilities assigned to each scenario and the projections are validated through a fanchart analysis, which uses the probability function to identify and analyze:

The central tendency of the projections.

ii)

The dispersion that is expected around this value, and values higher or lower than the central value more or less probable.

The following table provides a comparison between the carrying amount of allowance for loan losses for direct loans, indirect loans and due from customers on banker’s acceptances, and its estimation under three scenarios: base, optimistic and pessimistic.

Credit risk management on reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing -

Most of these operations are performed by Credicorp Capital. The Group has implemented credit limits for each counterparty and most of transactions are collateralized with investment grade financial instruments and financial instruments issued by Governments.

Credit risk management on investments -

The Group evaluates the credit risk identified of each of the investments, disclosing the risk rating granted to them by a risk rating agency. For investments traded in Peru, risk ratings used are those provided by the three most prestigious Peruvian rating agencies (authorized by Peruvian regulator) and for investments traded abroad, the risk-ratings used are those provided by the three most prestigious international rating agencies.

In the event that any subsidiary uses a risk-rating prepared by any other risk rating agency, said risk-ratings are standardized with those provided by the above-mentioned institutions for consolidation purposes.

The following table shows the analysis of the risk-rating of the investments at fair value through profit or loss, at fair value through other comprehensive income and amortized cost provided by the institutions referred to above:

(i)

The increase in the balance is mainly due to the acquisition of new financial instruments rated A- to A+.

(ii)

The decrease in the balance is mainly due to the maturity of these instruments, see notes, 6(a)(vi) and 6(b)(iii).

It is worth mentioning that the change in the risk-rating of the investments has had an impact on the measurement of the expected loss.

Concentration of financial instruments exposed to credit risk -

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, financial instruments with exposure to credit risk were distributed considering the following economic sectors:

Offsetting financial assets and liabilities -

The disclosures set out in the tables below include financial assets and liabilities that:

Are offset in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position; or

Are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement that covers similar financial instruments, irrespective of whether they are offset in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Similar agreements include derivative netting agreements, master repurchase agreements, and master securities lending agreements. Similar financial instruments include derivatives, accounts receivable from reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing, payables from repurchase agreements and securities lending and other financial assets and liabilities. Financial instruments such as loans and deposits are not disclosed in the tables below because they are not offset in the consolidated statement of financial position.

The offsetting framework contract issued by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association Inc. (“ISDA”) and similar master netting arrangements do not meet the criteria for offsetting in the consolidated statement of financial position, because said agreements were created in order for both parties to have an enforceable offsetting right in cases of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group or the counterparties or following other predetermined events. In addition, the Group and its counterparties do not intend to settle said instruments on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

The Group receives and gives collateral in the form of cash and trading securities in respect of the following transactions:

Derivatives,

Accounts receivable from reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing,

Payables from repurchase agreements and securities lending, and

Other financial assets and liabilities

Such collateral adheres to standard industry terms including, when appropriate, an ISDA Credit Support Annex (CSA). This means that securities received/given as collateral can be pledged or sold during the term of the transaction but have to be returned on maturity of the transaction. The terms also give each party the right to terminate the related transactions upon the counterparty’s failure to return the respective collateral.

Derivative assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.

Receivables from reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending are measured at amortized cost.

Financial liabilities are measured at fair value.

The difference between the carrying amount in the consolidated statement of financial position and the amounts presented in the tables above for derivatives (presented in other assets Note 13(c)), receivables from reverse repurchase agreement and securities borrowing and payables from repurchase agreements and securities lending and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss are financial instruments outside of the scope of offsetting disclosure.

F-157

34.2	Market risk -

The Group has exposure to market risk, which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risks arise from open positions in interest rates, currency, commodities and equity products; all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements and changes in the level of volatility of prices such as interest rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. Due to the order of the Group’s current activities, commodity price risk has not been approved, so this type of instrument is not agreed.

The Group separates exposures to market risk in two groups: (i) those that arise from value fluctuation of trading portfolios recognized at fair value through profit or loss due to movements of market rates or prices (Trading Book) and (ii) those that arise from changes in the structural positions of non-trading portfolios due to movements of the interest rates, prices and foreign exchange ratios (Banking Book) and that are recorded at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income, this is due to movements in interest rates, prices and currency exchange rates.

The risks that trading portfolios face are managed through Value at Risk (VaR) historical simulation techniques; while non-trading portfolios (Banking Book) are monitored using rate sensitivity metrics, which are a part of Asset and Liability Management (ALM).

Trading Book -

The trading book is characterized for having liquid positions in stocks, bonds, foreign currencies and derivatives, arising from market-making transactions where the Group acts as principal with the customers or with the market. This portfolio includes investments and derivatives classified by Management as held for trading.

(i)

Value at Risk (VaR) -

The Group applies the VaR approach to its trading portfolio to estimate the market risk of the main positions held and the maximum losses that are expected, based upon a number of assumptions for various changes in market conditions and considering the risk appetite of the subsidiary.

Daily calculation of VaR is a statistically based estimate of the maximum potential loss on the current portfolio from adverse market movements.

VaR expresses the “maximum” amount the Group might lose, but only to a certain level of confidence (99 percent). There is therefore a specified statistical probability (1 percent) that actual loss could be greater than the VaR estimate. The VaR model assumes a certain “holding period” until positions can be closed (1 - 10 days).

The time horizon used to calculate VaR is one day; however, the one-day VAR is amplified to a 10-day time frame and calculated by multiplying the one-day VaR by the square root of 10. This adjustment will be accurate only if the changes in the portfolio in the following days have a normal distribution independent and identically distributed; because of that, the result is multiplied by a non-normality adjustment factor. The limits and consumptions of the VaR are established based on the risk appetite and the trading strategies of each subsidiary.

The evaluation of the movements of the trading portfolio has been based on annual historical information and 133 market risk factors, which are detailed below: 36 market curves, 71 stock prices, 22 mutual fund values and 4 series of volatility. The Group directly applies these historical changes in rates to each position in its current portfolio (method known as historical simulation).

F-158

The Group Management considers that the market risk factors, incorporated in their VaR model, are adequate to measure the market risk to which its trading portfolio is exposed.

The use of this approach does not prevent losses outside of these limits in the event of more significant market movements. Losses exceeding the VaR figure may occur, on average under normal market conditions, not more than once every hundred days.

VaR limits have been established to control and keep track of all the risks taken. These risks arise from the size of the positions and/or the volatility of the risk factors embedded in each financial instrument. Regular reports are prepared for the Treasury Risk Committee and ALM, the Risk Management Committee and Senior Management.

VaR results are used to generate economic capital estimates by market risk, which are periodically monitored and are part of the overall risk appetite of each subsidiary. Furthermore, at Group level, there is also a limit to the risk appetite of the trading portfolio, which is monitored and informed to the Treasury Risks and ALM Credicorp Committee.

In VaR calculation, the effects of the exchange rate are not included because said effects are measured in the net monetary position, see note 34.2 (b)(ii).

The Group’s VaR showed an increase as of December 31, 2022, mainly explained by higher rate risk due to the increase in exposure to fixed income instruments in the Colombian market. The VaR remained contained within the risk appetite limits established by the Risk Management of each Subsidiary.

As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Group’s VaR by risk type is as follows:

	2022			2021
	S/(000)			S/(000)

Interest rate risk		74,343			35,721
Price risk		5,219			4,637
Volatility risk		2,032			2,662
Diversification effect		(7,347	)		(4,916	)
Consolidated VaR by type of risk		74,247			38,104

On the other hand, the instruments recorded as fair values through profit or loss are not part of the selling business model and are considered as part of the sensitivity analysis of rates in the next section. See the table of sensitivity of earnings at risk, net economic value and price sensitivity.

Banking Book –

Non-trading portfolios which comprise the Banking Book are exposed to different risks, given that they are sensitive to market rate movements, which could bring about a deterioration in the value of assets compared to liabilities and hence to a reduction of their net worth.

(i)

Interest rate risk –

The Banking Book-related interest rate risk arises from eventual changes in interest rates that may adversely affect the expected gains (risk gains) or market value of financial assets and liabilities reported on the balance sheet (net economic value). The Group assumes the exposure to the interest rate risk that may affect their fair value as well as the cash flow risk of future assets and liabilities.

The Risk Committee sets the guidelines regarding the level of unmatched repricing of interest rates that can be tolerated, which is periodically monitored through ALCO.

F-159

In this regard, Group companies that are exposed to the interest rate risk are those that have yields based on interest, such as credits, investments and technical reserves. Interest rate risk management in BCP, BCB, MiBanco – Banco de la Microempresa, , Mibanco – Banco de la Microempresa de Colombia, ASB Bank Corp. and Pacífico Seguros is carried out by performing a repricing gap analysis, sensitivity analysis of the financial margin and sensitivity analysis of the net economic value (NEV). These calculations consider different rate shocks in stress scenarios.

Analysis of repricing gap -

The repricing gap analysis is intended to measure the risk exposure of interest rate for repricing periods, in which both balance and out of balance assets and liabilities are grouped. This allows identifying those sections in which the rate variations would have a potential impact.

Sensitivity to changes in interest rates -

The sensitivity analysis of a reasonable possible change in interest rates on the banking book comprises an assessment of the sensitivity of the financial margins that seeks to measure the potential changes in the interest accruals over a period of time and the expected movement of the interest rate curves, as well as the sensibility of the net economic value, which is a long-term metric measured as the difference arising between the net economic value of assets and liabilities before and after a variation in interest rates.

The sensitivity of the financial margin is the effect of the assumed changes in interest rates on the net financial interest income before income tax and non-controlling interest for one year, based on non-trading financial assets and financial liabilities held as of December 31, 2022, and 2021, including the effect of derivative instruments.

The sensitivity of the net economic value is calculated by reassessing the financial assets and liabilities sensitive to rates, except for the trading instruments, including the effect of any associated hedge, and derivative instruments designated as a cash flow hedge. Regarding rate risk management, no distinction is made by accounting category for the investments that are considered in these calculations.

The results of the sensitivity analysis regarding changes in interest rates as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 are presented below:

The interest rate sensitivities set out in the table above are only illustrative and are based on simplified scenarios. The figures represent the effect of the pro-forma movements in the net interest income based on the projected yield curve scenarios and the Group’s current interest rate risk profile. This effect, however, does not incorporate actions that would be taken by Management to mitigate the impact of this interest rate risk.

The Group seeks proactively to change the interest rate risk profile to minimize losses and optimize net revenues. The projections above also assume that the interest rate of all maturities moves by the same amount and, therefore, do not reflect the potential impact on net interest income of some rates changing while others remain unchanged.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, investments in equity securities and funds that are non-trading, recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income and at fair value through profit or loss, respectively, are not considered as comprising investment securities for interest rate sensitivity calculation purposes; however, sensitivity tests have been conducted for variations of 10, 25 and 30 percent in the market prices of these securities.

(ii) Foreign currency exchange risk -

The Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which impact net open monetary positions and equity positions in a different currency than the Group’s functional currency.

The Group’s monetary position is made up of the net open position of monetary assets, monetary liabilities and off-balance sheet items expressed in foreign currency for which the entity itself assumes the risk; as well as the equity position generated by the investment in the Group’s subsidiaries whose functional currency is different from soles. In the first case, any appreciation/depreciation of the foreign currency would affect the consolidated income statement, on the contrary, in the case of the equity position, any appreciation/depreciation of the foreign currency will be recognized in other comprehensive income.

Net foreign exchange gains/losses recognized in the consolidated statement of income are disclosed in the following items:

• Net gain on foreign exchange transactions.

• Net gain on Derivatives held for trading.

• Net Result from exchange difference.

As of December 31, 2022, the foreign currency in which the Group has the greatest exposure is the U.S. Dollar. The free market exchange rate for purchase and sale transactions of each U.S. dollar as of December 31, 2022 was S/3.814 ( S/3.987 as of December 31, 2021).

F-165

Transactions in foreign currency are made at free market exchange rates of the countries where Credicorp’s Subsidiaries are established. As of December 31,2022 and 2021, the net open monetary position with effect on results and the equity position of the Group was as follows:

The following tables show the sensitivity analysis of the main currencies to which the Group is exposed, and which affect the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The analysis determines the effect of a reasonably possible variation of the exchange rate against the sun for each of the currencies independently, considering all other variables constant. A negative amount shows a potential net reduction in the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income, while a positive amount reflects a potential increase.

34.3	Liquidity risk

The Group is exposed to daily cash requirements, interbank deposits, current accounts, time deposits, use of loans, guarantees and other requirements. The Management of the Group’s subsidiaries establishes limits for the minimum funds amount available to cover such cash withdrawals and on the minimum level of inter-bank and other borrowing facilities that should be in place to cover withdrawals at unexpected levels of demand. Sources of liquidity are regularly reviewed by the corresponding risk teams to maintain a wide diversification by currency, geography, type of funding, provider, producer and term.

The procedure to control the mismatching of the maturities and interest rates of assets and liabilities is fundamental to the management of the Group. It is unusual for banks to be completely matched, as transacted business is often based on uncertain terms and of different types. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability, but also increases liquidity risk, which generates exposure to potential losses.

Maturities of assets and liabilities and the ability to replace them, at an acceptable cost are important factors in assessing the liquidity of the Group.

A mismatch, in maturity of long-term illiquid assets against short-term liabilities, exposes the consolidated statement of financial position to risks related both to rollover and to interest rates. If liquid assets do not cover maturing debts, a consolidated statement of financial position is vulnerable to a rollover risk. Furthermore, a sharp increase in interest rates can dramatically increase the cost of rolling over short-term liabilities, leading to a rapid increase in debt cost. The contractual-maturity gap report is useful in showing liquidity characteristics.

Corporate policies have been implemented for liquidity risk management by the Group. These policies are consistent with the particular characteristics of each operating segment in which each of the Group companies operate. Risk Management heads set up limits and autonomy models to determine the adequate liquidity indicators to be managed.

Commercial banking and Microfinance:

Liquidity risk exposure in BCP, BCB,Mibanco and Mibanco Colombia is based on indicators such as the Internal Liquidity Coverage Ratio (RCLI, the Spanish acronym) which measures the amount of liquid assets available to meet cash outflows needs within a given stress scenario for a period of 30 days and the Internal Ratio of Stable Net Funding (RFNEI, the Spanish acronym), which is intended to guarantee that long-term assets are financed at least with a minimum number of stable liabilities within a prolonged liquidity crisis scenario and works as a minimum compliance mechanism that supplements the RCLI. The core limits of these indicators are 100 percent and any excess is presented in the Credicorp Treasury Risk Committee, Credicorp Risk Committee and the Assets Liabilities Committee (ALCO) of the respective subsidiary.

Insurances and Pensions:

Insurances: Liquidity risk management in Pacífico Grupo Asegurador follows a particular approach given the nature of the business. For annually renewable businesses, mainly general insurance, the emphasis of liquidity is focused on the quick availability of resources in the event of a systemic event (for example, earthquake); for this purpose, there are minimum investment indicators in place relating to local cash/time deposits and foreign fixed-income instruments of high quality and liquidity abroad.

F-169

For long-term businesses such as Pacífico Seguros, given the nature of the products offered and the contractual relationship with customers (the liquidity risk is not material); the emphasis is on maintaining sufficient flow of assets and matching their maturities with maturities of obligations (mathematical technical reserves); for this purpose there are indicators that measure the asset/liability sufficiency and adequacy as well as calculations or economic capital subject to interest rate risk, this last under the methodology of Credicorp.

Pensions: Liquidity risk management in AFP Prima is carried out in a differentiated manner between the fund administrator and the funds being managed. Liquidity management regarding the fund administrator is focused on hedge meeting periodic operating expense needs, which are supported with the collection of commissions. The fund administering entity does not record unexpected outflows of liquidity.

Investment banking:

Liquidity risk in the Grupo Credicorp Capital principally affects the security brokerage. In managing this risk, limits of use of liquidity have been established as well as mismatching by dealing desk; follow-up on liquidity is performed on daily basis for a short-term horizon covering the coming settlements. If short-term unmatched maturities are identified, repos are used. On the other hand, structural liquidity risk of Credicorp Capital is not significant given the low levels of debt, which is monitored regularly using financial planning tools.

In the case of ASB Bank Corp. the risk liquidity management performs through indicators such as Internal Liquidity Coverage Ratio (RCLI, the Spanish acronym) and the Internal Ratio of Stable Net Funding (RFNEI, the Spanish acronym) with the core limits of 100 percent and any excess is presented in the Credicorp Treasury Risk Committee, Credicorp Risk Committee and the Assets Liabilities Committee (ALCO) of the respective subsidiary.

Companies perform a liquidity risk management using the liquidity Gap or contractual maturity Gap.

34.4	No financial risk -

A non-financial risk (NFR) is a broad term that is generally defined by exclusion; that is, any risk other than the traditional financial risks of the market, credit and liquidity. RNFs can have substantial negative strategic, business, economic and/or reputational implications. RNF includes the operational risks defined in the seven Basel operational risk event types, but also other major risks such as technology, cyber, behavioral, model, compliance, strategic, and third-party risk.

Non-Financial Risk management has become more challenging due to the added complexity of rapid changes in technology, extensive process automation, increased reliance on systems rather than people, as well as transformational processes such as business agility. These changes in the way financial institutions do business have led to new risk exposures, whether in the form of attacks affecting the Bank’s service, data theft or online fraud.

Operational risk

Operational risk is the possibility of the occurrence of losses arising from inadequate processes, human error, failure of information technology, relations with third parties or external events. Operational risks can, lead to financial losses and have legal or regulatory compliance consequences but exclude strategic or reputational risk (except for companies under Colombian regulations, where reputational risk is included in operational risk).

Operational risks are grouped into internal fraud, external fraud, labor relations and job security, relations with customers, business products and practices, damages to material assets, business and systems interruption, and failures in process execution, delivery and management of processes.

One of the Group’s pillars is to develop an efficient risk culture, and to achieve this, it records operational risks and their respective process controls. The risk map permits their monitoring, prioritization and proposed treatment according to established governance. Likewise carries out an active cybersecurity and fraud prevention management, aligned with the best international practices.

The business continuity management system enables the establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving of business continuity based on best practices and regulatory requirements. The Group implements recovery strategies for the resources that support important products and services of the organization, which will be periodically tested to measure the effectiveness of the strategy.

In the management of operational risk, cybersecurity, fraud prevention and business continuity, corporate guidelines are used, and methodologies and best practices are shared among the Group’s companies.

Finally, it is incorporated as a mechanism of recovery in front of the materialization of operational risks, the management of the Transfer of Non-Financial Risks, mainly through Insurance Policies contracted individually or corporately in the local and international market, which cover losses due to fraud, civil and professional liability, cyber risks, damage to physical assets, among others. The insurance design is in accordance with the Group’s main operating risks, the coverage needs of key areas and the organization’s risk appetite, constantly seeking efficiencies in the cost of policies, working together with the insurers that make up the Group and the most important insurance/reinsurance brokers in the international market.

F-172

Cybersecurity

Credicorp focuses its efforts on the most cost-efficient strategies to reduce exposure to cybersecurity risk; thereby complying with the Group’s risk appetite. To achieve this, different levels of controls are applied adapted to the different areas and companies potentially exposed. For this reason, it maintains an important investment program, which allows it to have the technologies and processes necessary to keep the Group’s operations and assets safe.

As part of cybersecurity management, the Group has lines of action that allow this risk to be mitigated and that, at the corporate level, implementation and improvement priorities have been established according to the different realities of the companies. These lines of work include the Cybersecurity Strategy, which is constantly reviewed considering the global scenario, standards, frameworks and regulations, in order to guarantee business continuity, resilience and data privacy, as well as the adoption of security and cybersecurity frameworks that allow cybersecurity controls to be adapted for each of the Group companies, adequate management and remediation of vulnerabilities on time.

There is an awareness program focused in constant training for employees to generate a culture of cybersecurity awareness in all Group companies and cybersecurity indicators, which ensure alignment between operations and the business strategy of group companies.

The Government of Third Parties, which includes suppliers, consumers, strategic allies and clients, allows us to ensure adherence and compliance with Group policies, as well as the implementation of security technologies, to comprehensively ensure all business processes.

Finally, information security management of information assets is carried out through a systemic process, documented and known by the entire organization under the best practices and regulatory requirements. Guidelines are designed and developed based on the policies and procedures to have availability, privacy and integrity strategies.

Corporate Security and Cybercrime

As part of the management of Non-Financial Risks, the Corporate Security & Cybercrime Operations Center’s function is to detect and respond to incidents of fraud, cyber crime and physical security.

These tasks are carried out by teams specialized in transactional monitoring, investigations, “cybercrime”, electronic security, disaster risk management and strategic intelligence activities, including social conflicts, which allow safeguarding the safety of workers, clients, suppliers and company assets.

To this end, the designed strategy includes the use of state-of-the-art technological tools in the monitoring platform, digital video surveillance and advanced risk profile analysis models, among other fronts. Likewise, there is highly specialized and trained talent on these fronts that allows the proper use of artificial intelligence, electronics, advanced analytics and “cyber forensic” achieving high efficiency standards.

Finally, The Group contributes to the security of the Financial System through union activities that it develops at the local level in the Association of Banks of Peru (ASBANC) and at the Latin American level in the Committee of Security Experts of the Latin American Federation of Banks (FELABAN).

34.5	Model Risk -

The Group uses models for different purposes such as credit admission, capital calculation, behavior, provisions, market risk, liquidity, among others.

Model risk is defined as the probability of loss resulting from decisions (credit, market, among others) based on the use of poorly designed and/or poorly implemented models. The sources that generate this risk are mainly: deficiencies in data, errors in the model (from design to implementation), use of the model.

The management of model risk is proportional to the importance of each model. In this sense, a concept of “tiering” (measurement system that orders the models depending to the importance according to the impact on the business) is defined as the main attribute to synthesize the level of importance or relevance of a model, from which is determined the intensity of the model risk management processes to be followed.

Model risk management is structured around a set of processes known as the life cycle of the model. The definition of phases of the life cycle of the model in the Group is detailed below: Identification, Planning, Development, Internal Validation, Approval, Implementation and use, and Monitoring and control

34.6	Risk of the insurance activity -

The main risk the Group faces under insurance contracts is that the actual claims and benefit payments or the timing thereof, differ from expectations. This is influenced by the frequency of claims, severity of claims, actual benefits paid and subsequent development of long-term claims. Therefore, the objective of the Group is to ensure that enough reserves are available to cover these liabilities.

The risk exposure is mitigated by diversification across a large portfolio of insurance contracts and by having different lines of business. The risks are also mitigated by careful selection and implementation of underwriting strategy guidelines, as well as the use of reinsurance arrangements. The Group’s placement of reinsurance is diversified so that it is neither dependent on a single reinsurer nor are the operations of the Group substantially dependent upon any single reinsurance contract.

Life insurance contracts -

The main risks that the Group is exposed to are mortality, morbidity, longevity, investment yield and flow, losses arising from policies due to the expense incurred being different than expected, and the policyholder decision; all of which, do not vary significantly in relation to the location of the risk insured by the Group, type of risk insured or industry.

The Group’s underwriting strategy is designed to ensure that risks are well diversified in terms of type of risk and level of insured benefits. This is achieved through diversification across insurable risks, the use of medical screening in order to ensure that pricing takes account of current health conditions and family medical history, regular review of actual claims experience and product pricing, as well as detailed claims handling procedures. Underwriting limits are in place to enforce appropriate risk selection criteria. For example, the Group has the right not to renew individual policies, it can impose deductibles and it has the right to reject the payment of fraudulent claims.

For contracts when death or disability is the insured risk, the significant factors that could increase the overall frequency of claims are epidemics, widespread changes in lifestyle and natural disasters, resulting in more claims than expected.

For retirement, survival and disability annuities contracts, the most significant factor is continuing improvement in medical science and social conditions that increase longevity.

Management has performed a sensitivity analysis of the technical reserve estimates, Note 16(c).

F-174

Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020, the mortality of the portfolio of life business policyholders has increased significantly. The main businesses affected have been the current Social Security Insurance and Credit Life Insurance, due to the number of policyholders in each business (more than 2.5 million people in each case). The other businesses affected are Individual Life, Group Life and Law Life, but with a reduced impact.However, during 2022 the mortality due to Covid-19 has been reduced compared to 2021.

In these businesses, the reserve for pending claims has increased, as well as the reserve for Claims Occurred and Not Reported (IBNR) due to the increase in deaths and the delay experienced in reporting claims. Since March 2020, the month in which the national emergency began, the size of the portfolios, the reported claims and the reserves necessary to cover the expected excess mortality (expected deaths above the average number of premature deaths) have been continuously monitored. pandemic). Likewise, conservative criteria have been applied in estimating loss reserves, considering the uncertainty involved.

On the other hand, in the pension businesses, more deceased annuitants have also been registered since the start of the pandemic, which has led to a greater release of mathematical reserves for this concept compared to previous years, however during 2022, the level of death of rentiers has decreased compared to 2021, this is a product of the vaccination advancement.

Finally, although the risk of increased mortality remains given the declaration of the fitht wave of COVID-19 by the Ministry of Health, the risk is largely mitigated because the population fully vaccinated exceeds 90 percent at the end of december 2022. For this reason, during 2022 there was a decrease in mortality compared to the national emergency declaration.

Non-life insurance contracts (general insurance and healthcare) -

The Group mainly issues the following types of non-life general insurance contracts: automobile, technical branches, business and healthcare insurances. Healthcare contracts provide medical expense cover to policyholders. Risks under non-life insurance policies usually cover 12 months.

For general insurance contracts the most significant risks arise from climate changes, natural disasters and other types of damages. For healthcare contracts the most significant risks arise from lifestyle changes, epidemics and medical science and technology improvements.

Most of these risks do not vary significantly in relation to the location of the risk insured by the Group, type of risk insured or industry.

The above risk exposures are mitigated by diversification across a large portfolio of insurance contracts and by having different business lines. The variability of risk is improved by careful selection and implementation of underwriting strategies, which are designed to ensure that risks are diversified in terms of type of risks and level of insured benefits. This is achieved, in various cases, through diversification across industry sectors and geography.

Furthermore, strict claim review policies to assess all new and ongoing claims and in process of settlement, regular detailed review of claims handling procedures and frequent investigation of possible fraudulent claims are all policies and procedures put in place to reduce the Group’s risk exposure. Insurance contracts also entitle the Group to pursue third parties for payment of some or all costs. Also, the Group actively manages and promptly pursues claims, in order to reduce its exposure to unpredictable future developments that can negatively impact the Group. In this sense, constant monitoring is being carried out on claims that may arise as a result of the social political crisis, which began at the end of 2022.

The Group has also limited its exposure by imposing maximum claim amounts on certain contracts as well as the use of reinsurance arrangements in order to limit its exposure to catastrophic events.

F-175

In the Medical Assistance branch, the pandemic had two simultaneous effects on the accident rate: an increase in outpatient care and hospitalizations (normal and in the ICU) for COVID-19 cases and a decrease in care and hospitalizations for other ailments. For this business, reserves for claims pending, as well as reserves for claims that have occurred and not reported (IBNR) are being continuously monitored and have been estimated with prudent criteria due to the variability and uncertainty of the frequency and cost of cases and the Greater delay in reporting claims by health centers, whose care during the pandemic is focused on patient care. During 2022, care for Covid-19 has decreased compared to 2021, allowing an increase in outpatient and hospital care for other illnesses.

34.7	Capital management -

The Group maintains an actively managed capital base to cover risks inherent in its business. The adequacy of the Group’s capital is monitored using, among other measures, the rules and ratios established by the SBS, the supervising authority of its major subsidiaries and for consolidation purposes. Furthermore, capital management responds to market expectations in relation to the solvency of the Group and to support the growth of the businesses considered in the strategic planning. In this way, the capital maintained by the Group enables it to assume unexpected losses in normal conditions and conditions of severe stress.

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are: (i) to comply with the capital requirements set by the regulators of the markets where the entities within the Group operate; (ii) to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders; and (iii) to maintain a strong capital base to support the development of its business, in line with the limits and tolerances established in the declaration of Risk Appetite.

As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the regulatory capital for the subsidiaries engaged in financial and insurance activities amounted to approximately S/31,754.6 million and S/29,741.6 million, respectively. The regulatory capital has been determined in accordance with SBS regulations in force as of said dates. Under the SBS regulations, the Group’s regulatory capital exceeds by approximately S/8,157.0 million the minimum regulatory capital required as of December 31, 2021 (approximately S/10,294.3 million as of December 31, 2021).

Financial instruments included in the Level 1 category are those that are measured based on quotations obtained in an active market. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis.

Financial instruments included in the Level 2 category are those that are measured based on observable market factors. This category includes instruments valued using quoted prices for similar instruments, either in active or less active markets and other valuation techniques (models) where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable based on market data.

Following is a description of how fair value is determined for the main Group’s financial instruments where valuation techniques were used with inputs based on market data which incorporate Credicorp’s estimates on the assumptions that market participants would use for measuring these financial instruments:

Valuation of derivative financial instruments -

Interest rate swaps, currency swaps and forward exchange contracts are measured by using valuation techniques where inputs are based on market data. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing and swap models, using present value calculations. The models incorporate various inputs, including the credit quality of counterparties, spot exchange rates, forward rates and interest rate curves. Options are valued using well-known, widely accepted valuation models.

A credit valuation adjustment (CVA) is applied to the “Over-The-Counter” derivative exposures to take into account the counterparty’s risk of default when measuring the fair value of the derivative. CVA is the mark-to market cost of protection required to hedge credit risk from counterparties in this type of derivatives portfolio. CVA is calculated by multiplying the probability of default (PD), the loss given default (LGD) and the expected exposure (EE) at the time of default.

A debit valuation adjustment (DVA) is applied to include the Group’s own credit risk in the fair value of derivatives (that is the risk that the Group might default on its contractual obligations), using the same methodology as for CVA.

F-178

As of December 31, 2022, the balance of receivables and payables corresponding to derivatives amounted to S/1,478.7 million and S/1,345.7 million respectively, See Note 13(c), generating DVA and CVA adjustments for approximately S/7.5 million and S/11.2 million respectively. The net impact of both items in the consolidated statement of income amounted to S/6.0 million of loss. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of receivables and payables corresponding to derivatives amounted to S/1,661.6 million and S/1,524.8 million, respectively, See Note 13(c), generating DVA and CVA adjustments for approximately S/7.8 million and S/17.3 million, respectively. Also, the net impact of both items in the consolidated statement of income amounted to S/0.3 million of loss.

Valuation of debt securities classified in the category “at fair value through other comprehensive income” and included in level 2 -

Valuation of certificates of deposit BCRP, corporate, leasing, subordinated bonds and Government treasury bonds are measured by calculating their Net Present Values (NPV) through discounted cash flows, using appropriate and relevant zero coupon rate curves to discount cash flows in the respective currency and considering observable current market transactions.

Certificates of deposit BCRP (CD BCRP) are securities issued at a discount in order to regulate the liquidity of the financial system. They are placed mainly through public auction or direct placement, are freely negotiable by their holders in the Peruvian secondary market and may be used as collateral in Repurchase Agreement Transactions of Securities with the BCRP.

Other debt instruments are measured using valuation techniques based on assumptions supported by prices from observable current market transactions, obtained via pricing services. Nevertheless, when prices have not been determined in an active market, fair values are based on broker quotes and assets that are valued using models whereby the majority of assumptions are market observable.

Valuation of financial instruments included in level 3 -

These are measured using valuation techniques (internal models), based on assumptions that are not supported by transaction prices observable in the market for the same instrument, nor based on available market data.

In this regard, no significant differences were noted between the estimated fair values and the respective carrying amounts.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the net unrealized loss of Level 3 financial instruments amounted to S/0.1 million and S/0.7 million, respectively. During 2022 and 2021, changes in the carrying amount of Level 3 financial instruments have not been significant since there were no purchases, issuances, settlements or any other significant movements or transfers from level 3 to Level 1 or Level 2 or vice versa.

F-180

The methodologies and assumptions used by the Group to determine fair values depend on the terms and risk characteristics of the various financial instruments and include the following:

(i)

Long-term fixed-rate and variable-rate loans are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors, and individual creditworthiness of the customer and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the incurred losses of these loans. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the carrying amounts of loans, net of allowances, were not materially different from their calculated fair values.

(ii)

Assets for which fair values approximate their carrying value - For financial assets and financial liabilities that are liquid or have a short term maturity (less than three months) it is assumed that the carrying amounts approximate to their fair values. This assumption is also applied to demand deposits, savings accounts without a specific maturity and variable rate financial instruments.

(iii)

Fixed rate financial instruments - The fair value of fixed rate financial assets and liabilities carried at amortized cost are estimated by comparing market interest rates when they were first recognized with current market rates offered for similar financial instruments. The estimated fair value of fixed interest-bearing deposits is based on discounted cash flows using prevailing market interest rates for financial instruments with similar credit risk and maturity. For quoted debt issued the fair values are calculated based on quoted market prices. When quoted market prices are not available, a discounted cash flow model is used based on a current interest rate yield curve appropriate for the remaining term to maturity.

34.9	Fiduciary activities, management of funds and pension funds -

The Group provides custody, trustee, investment management and advisory services to third parties; therefore, the Group makes allocations and purchase and sale decisions in relation to a wide range of financial instruments. Assets that are held in a fiduciary capacity are not included in these consolidated financial statements. These services give rise to the risk that the Group will be accused of mismanagement or under-performance.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the value of the net assets under administration off the balance sheet (in millions of soles) is as follows:

	2022		2021

Investment funds and mutual funds		69,264		53,365
Equity managed		35,062		28,768
Pension funds		30,596		40,024

Madoff Trustee Litigation -

In September 2011, the Trustee for the liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC (BLMIS) and the substantively consolidated estate of Bernard L. Madoff (the Madoff Trustee) filed a complaint (the Madoff Complaint) against Credicorp’s subsidiary ASB (now ASB Bank Corp.) in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the Bankruptcy Court). The Madoff Complaint seeks recovery of approximately US$120.0 million in principal amount, which is alleged to be equal to the amount of redemptions between the end of 2004 and the beginning of 2005 of ASB-managed Atlantic U.S. Blue Chip Fund assets invested in Fairfield Sentry Limited (Fairfield Sentry), together with fees, costs, interest and expenses. The Madoff Complaint seeks the recovery of these redemptions from ASB Bank Corp. as “subsequent transfers” or “avoided transfers” from BLMIS to Fairfield Sentry, which Fairfield Sentry in turn subsequently transferred to ASB Bank Corp. The Madoff Trustee has filed similar “claw back” actions against numerous other alleged “subsequent transferees” that invested in Fairfield Sentry and its sister entities, which, in turn, invested in and redeemed funds from BLMIS.

There has been significant briefing on issues related to these Madoff Trustee actions, and these cases have been pending for many years. In November 2016, the Bankruptcy Court issued a Memorandum Decision Regarding Claims to Recover Foreign Subsequent Transfers (the Memorandum Decision) holding that the recovery of certain subsequent foreign transfers is barred under the doctrine of comity and/or extraterritoriality, and dismissed the claims brought by the Madoff Trustee against a number of parties, including ASB Bank Corp. In March 2017, the Madoff Trustee filed an appeal (the Appeal) of the Memorandum Decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which reversed the Dismissal Order and remanded the matter to the Bankruptcy Court (the Second Circuit Opinion). In April 2019, the defendant-appellees, including ASB Bank Corp., filed, and the Second Circuit granted, a motion to stay the issuance of the mandate pending the filing of a petition for a writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court. The petition for a writ of certiorari was filed in the United States Supreme Court in August 2019. On or about June 1, 2020, the United States Supreme Court denied the petition for a writ of certiorari. Following the denial of the petition for writ of certiorari, the judgment for dismissal by the Bankruptcy Court was vacated and the matter was remanded back to the Bankruptcy Court. The case now remains pending in the Bankruptcy Court. On March 25, 2022, ASB Bank Corp. filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint. On May 24, 2022, the Madoff Trustee filed its opposition to the Motion to Dismiss. On July 14, 2022, ASB Bank Corp. filed its reply memorandum of law in further support of its Motion to Dismiss. On November 18, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court denied the Motion to Dismiss presented by ASB Bank Corp. and give to ASB Bank Corp. until February 1, 2023 to file an answer to the Complaint. While management believes that ASB has defenses against the Madoff Trustee’s claims and intends to defend against any action by the Madoff Trustee, in view of recent judicial decisions in cases not involving ASB, certain defenses are no longer available. In this context, Credicorp has constituted a provision that management considers reasonable with the information available today.

ii)

Fairfield Litigation -

In April 2012, Fairfield Sentry (In Liquidation) and its representative, Kenneth Krys (the Fairfield Liquidator), filed a complaint (the Fairfield Complaint) against ASB (now ASB Bank Corp.) in the Bankruptcy Court (the Fairfield v. ASB Adversary Proceeding). The Fairfield Complaint seeks to recover US$115.2 million in principal amount from ASB Bank Corp., representing the amount of ASB’s Bank Corp. redemptions of certain investments in Fairfield Sentry, together with fees, costs, interest and expenses. These are essentially the same funds that the Madoff Trustee seeks to recover in the Madoff Trustee litigation as described above. After the Fairfield Complaint was filed, the Bankruptcy Court procedurally consolidated the Fairfield V. ASB Adversary Proceeding with other adversary actions brought by the Fairfield Liquidator against former investors in Fairfield Sentry.

F-183

Similar to the Madoff Trustee litigation described above, the Fairfield v. ASB Adversary Proceeding and related adversary actions have been pending for many years. In October 2016, the Fairfield Liquidator filed a Motion for Leave to Amend (the Motion for Leave) various complaints, including the Fairfield Complaint. Certain defendants, including ASB Bank Corp., filed a motion to dismiss (the Motion to Dismiss) and a consolidated memorandum of law (i) in opposition to the Motion for Leave and (ii) in support of the Motion to Dismiss. In December 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered a memorandum decision granting in part and denying in part the Motion to Dismiss and the Motion for Leave (the Memorandum Decision). In March 2019, the Fairfield Liquidator submitted a form of a stipulated order dismissing the adversary proceeding against ASB Bank Corp. (the Dismissal Order), as directed by the Bankruptcy Court, but filed notices of appeal, including of the dismissal of the claims asserted against ASB Bank Corp. and other defendants, in May 2019. The appeal remains pending.

Management believes that ASB Bank Corp. has defenses against the Fairfield Liquidator’s claims alleged in the Amended Complaint and the Fairfield Liquidator’s appeal.

iii)

Government Investigations -

The former Chairman and the current Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Credicorp, in their respective capacities as Chairman of the Board and as a Director of BCP Stand-alone, were summoned as witnesses by Peruvian prosecutors, along with 26 other Peruvian business leaders, to testify in connection with a judicial investigation that is being carried out regarding contributions made to the electoral campaign of a political party in the 2011 Peruvian presidential elections. Our former Chairman testified on November 18, 2019, and our Vice Chairman testified on December 9, 2019. The former Chairman informed prosecutors that in 2010 and 2011 Credicorp made donations totaling US$3.65 million to Fuerza Popular 2011 campaign (in total amounts of US$1.7 million in 2010 and US$1.95 million in 2011). These contributions were made in coordination with the General Manager of Credicorp at that time. While the amount of these contributions exceeded the limits then permitted under Peruvian electoral law, the law in place at that time provided no sanction for contributors, and instead only for the recipient of the campaign contribution.

The former Chairman also informed prosecutors that in 2016, three subsidiaries of Credicorp (BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and Grupo Pacifico) made donations totaling S/711,000 (approximately US$200,000) to the Peruanos Por el Kambio campaign. These contributions were made in compliance both with Peruvian electoral law and with Credicorp’s own political contributions guidelines, adopted in 2015. These guidelines provided details on the procedures for obtaining approval for contributions and outlined the specific required conditions for transparent contributions.

The Peruvian Superintendencia del Mercado de Valores (‘SMV’ for its Spanish acronym) has initiated a sanctioning process against Credicorp, for failing to disclose to the market, in due course, the political campaign contributions in the years 2011 and 2016. The SMV also has initiated a sanctioning process against three subsidiaries of Credicorp (BCP Stand-alone, Mibanco and Grupo Pacifico), for failing to disclose to the market, in due course, the political campaign contributions made in connection with the 2016 presidential elections. The SMV notified Credicorp, BCP, Mibanco and Grupo Pacifico with first instance Resolutions on these proceedings. The mentioned Resolutions imposed pecuniary sanctions (fines) on Credicorp and the three subsidiaries as a consequence of these sanctioning processes. Credicorp, BCP, Mibanco and Grupo Pacifico appealed the Resolutions.

Under the Resolution, the SMV resolved to sanction Credicorp (i) with a fine of 300 Tax Units (Unidades Impositivas Tributarias or UITs by its acronym in Spanish) approximately US$270,000 for, allegedly, having infringed (categorized as “very serious”, “muy grave” in Spanish) subsection 1.6, numeral 1 of Annex 1 of the Sanctions Regulation, approved by CONASEV Resolution N°055-2001-EF / 94.10, effective as from 2011; and (ii) with a fine of 210 UITs approximately US$207,375 for, allegedly, having violated (categorized as “very serious”, “muy grave” in Spanish) subsection 1.5, numeral 1 of Annex 1 of the Sanctions Regulation, approved by CONASEV Resolution N° 055-2001-EF / 94.10 and modified by Resolution N° 006-2012-SMV / 01, effective as from 2016. The charges made by the SMV against Credicorp were that the company had affected the transparency of the stock market by not having disclosed relevant information to the market regarding Credicorp’s cash contributions to the political party Fuerza Popular during the 2011 Peruvian presidential campaign (first charge) and that the company had affected the transparency of the stock market by not having disclosed relevant information to the market regarding Credicorp’s agreement to make contributions to the political party Peruanos por el Kambio during the 2016 Peruvian presidential campaign (second charge).

F-184

Thus, since Credicorp’s contentious-administrative claim filed was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to Credicorp and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

On March 4, 2022, Grupo Pacifico informed that the Peruvian SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Superior Chamber Specialized in Administrative Litigation of the Superior Court of Justice of Lima (the “Court”), pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration Grupo Pacifico´s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV´s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by Grupo Pacifico mentioned above. Thus, since Grupo Pacifico´s mentioned claim was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to Grupo Pacifico, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

On July 4, 2022, BCP informed that the Peruvian SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Superior Chamber Specialized in Administrative Litigation of the Superior Court of Justice of Lima (the “Court”), pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration BCP´s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV´s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by BCP mentioned above. Thus, since BCP´s mentioned claim was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to BCP, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

On July 5, 2022, Mibanco informed that the Peruvian SMV was notified of the resolution issued by the Superior Chamber Specialized in Administrative Litigation of the Superior Court of Justice of Lima (the “Court”), pursuant to which the Court has admitted for consideration Mibanco´s contentious-administrative claim challenging the SMV´s resolution (by negative administrative silence), with reference to the appeal filed by Mibanco mentioned above. Thus, since Mibanco´s mentioned claim was admitted for consideration by the Court, the administrative procedure has terminated with respect to Mibanco, and the matter is now subject to the decision of the Judiciary.

F-185

On November 11, 2021, Credicorp disclosed that its incoming CEO, Mr. Gianfranco Ferrari de las Casas, informed the company that he was notified of a Prosecutor’s Decision issued by the Corporate Supraprovincial Prosecutor’s Office Specialized in Officer Corruption Offenses Special Team - Fourth Court Division (“Fiscalía Supraprovincial Corporativa Especializada en Delitos de Corrupción de Funcionarios Equipo Especial – Cuarto Despacho”, for its name in Spanish). Through such notice, Mr. Ferrari was informed that he has been included in the preparatory investigation carried out against Mr. Yehude Simon M. and an additional sixty-five (65) individuals on the grounds of, in his particular case, alleged primary complicity in the alleged crime against the public administration, aggravated collusion, incompatible negotiation or improper use of position and criminal organization detrimental to the Peruvian State, in connection with the financial advisory services provided by BCP Stand - alone to the Olmos Project.

Credicorp has reviewed the performance of the officers of Banco de Crédito del Perú in relation to the financial advisory services provided by the Bank in connection with the Olmos Project and has concluded that the facts under investigation do not give rise to any liability of Banco de Crédito del Perú or its officers. Credicorp bases this view on the qualified opinion of external consultants specialized in the matter. Therefore, Credicorp considers that the opening of the aforementioned preparatory investigation will not have any impact on the normal operation of the company, nor will it affect the dedication and performance of its officers in undertaking their regular duties.
