- Commercial campaigns.During the currently reported quarter, the Bank launched different promotional campaigns oriented to the retail segment in order to expand its client base and strengthen clients’ loyalty. New and more flexible mortgage alternatives, auto loans, insurance and checking accounts were fostered through several marketing initiatives. In addition, new innovative mutual funds were recently launched by the Mutual Funds Subsidiary.
- Client base expansion.The Bank’s customer base continued to grow in line with the Bank’s sale force efforts and distribution network expansion. Accordingly, the number of debtors increased by 15% in twelve months, to 582.390 in September 2006. The Bank has also benefited from a large and stable low cost deposit base.

2006 Third Quarter Results | |
Financial System Highlights |
- The Chilean Financial Systemreported solid results in the third quarter of 2006 with a net income of Ch$242,446 million, reflecting an increase of 14.4% as compared to the same figure in 3Q05. This increase was largely a result of the 14.8% annual expansion of the loan portfolio, net of interbank loans, however, improvements in the efficiency of the system also explained the positive results of the quarter. The Return on Average Equity (ROAE) for 3Q06 was of 18.1% as compared to 17.0% for 3Q05 and 18.0% in 2Q06.
Total loans, net of interbank loans, as of September 30, 2006, totaled US$92,637million, with year-on-year and quarterly expansions of 14.8% and 1.8%, respectively. The twelve month growth was fostered by the retail sector mainly in consumer and mortgage loans which increased by 21.8% and 10.8% during the last twelve months. The wholesale sector has also proved a solid performance with significant growth in commercial loans.

Banco de Chile 2006 Third-Quarter Consolidated Results
NET INCOME |
The Bank’s consolidated net income totaled Ch$52,447 million during 3Q06, which signified a 4.6% increase as compared to 3Q05. This better performance reflected the stronger net financial income driven by the loan portfolio growth and by higher benefits arising from demand deposits. To a lesser extent, higher non-operating income as well as a recovery in the results of its foreign branches also contributed to this expansion. These positive factors more than compensated lower fee incomes, higher provisions for loan losses and higher operating expenses.
In 3Q06, the Bank reached an annualized return on average assets(ROAA) and annualized return on average shareholders’ equity(ROAE) of 1.79% and 26.92%, respectively, slightly below the figures posted in 3Q05 but far above the financial system’s comparable figures for the quarter of 1.39% and 18.1% .
As a whole, the net income of subsidiaries decreased by 14.9% during 3Q06 as compared to 3Q05, primarily as a consequence of lower fee income accounted by Banchile Corredores de Bolsa (the securities brokerage subsidiary) and, to a lesser extent, to lower results of the Mutual Funds subsidiary. However, those effects were partially offset by higher net income posted by the rest of the subsidiaries, mainly by the Financial Advisory and the Insurance Brokerage companies. During 3Q06, the Financial Advisory subsidiary participated in two important business transactions, while the Insurance Brokerage firm continued to demonstrate strong commercial activities, thus increasing its contribution to the Bank’s net income.
Regarding the improved results of the Bank’s foreign branches, they were mainly attributable to an important drop in the New York branch’s operating expenses. These expenses were mostly related to advisories incurred upon as part of the additional risk control activities taken in order to adjust to compliance regulations.

Total Net Income | 50,140 | 56,061 | 52,447 | 4.6% | ||||
Total net income decreased by 6.4% in 3Q06 as compared to the previous record figure of Ch$56,061 million registered in 2Q06. This decline was mainly a result of a lower result in other income and expenses and higher provisions for loan losses, which together offset the increase registered in operating revenues. It is worth noting that during 2Q06, other income and expenses line was positively impacted by a release of excess tax provisions from previous years, being a one time effect at the non-operating income level of approximately Ch$3,350 million.
However, the net income of the 3Q06 compared to the previous quarter was positively impacted by better results registered by the foreign branches, and by the net income growth registered by the Bank’s subsidiaries.
Overall, the net income of subsidiaries amounted to Ch$5,508 million in 3Q06, contributing 10.5% to consolidated net income up from 8.0% in the previous quarter. This increase was mostly explained by better results attained by the Securities Brokerage, the Mutual Funds and the Financial Advisory subsidiaries, as well as by higher recoveries posted by the Factoring subsidiary.

NET FINANCIAL INCOME |
The net financial income increased to Ch$116,365 million in 3Q06 compared to Ch$100,645 million in 3Q05, mainly as a result of a 9.7% growth in average interest earning assets and, to a lesser extent, to an increase of 23 basis points in the net financial margin from 4.25% in 3Q05 to 4.48% in 3Q06.

Net Financial Margin (2) | 4.3% | 4.6% | 4.5% | - |
The increase in average interest earning assets between 3Q06 and 3Q05 was mainly caused by a 15% growth in the average loan portfolio principally driven by commercial, contingent and consumer loans, which more than offset the 10% decrease in average investments between the same periods.
The increase in the net financial margin during 3Q06 was mainly due to:
- A higher contribution from non-interest bearing liabilities, principally demand deposits, as a result of the increase of nominal interest rates (average short-term interest rate was 5.21% in 3Q06 and 3.66% in 3Q05).
- A lower negative repricing effect in 3Q06 compared to 3Q05 derived from a lower increase in short-term interest rates (as the Bank’s liabilities reprice faster than its assets). The Chilean Central Bank increased the monetary policy interest rate by only 25 basis points at the beginning of 3Q06, and maintained this rate stable for the rest of the quarter, while during 3Q05 this rate was increased by 75 basis points.
- A slight increase in the inflation rate, measured by the fluctuation of the UF of 1.38% during 3Q06, compared to 1.31% in 3Q05, which implied that during 3Q06, the Bank earned higher interest income on the portion of UF denominated interest earning assets financed by nominal interest bearing liabilities and by non-interest bearing liabilities.
These factors which positively affected the net financial income were partially offset by a less favorable funding structure (the ratio of interest bearing liabilities to interest earning assets increased to 73.6% in 3Q06 from 71.9% in 3Q05) and lower spreads derived from increased competition.
Net financial income for 3Q06 compared to 2Q06 decreased slightly by 0.9% mainly as a result of a drop in the net financial margin, partially offset by the 1.7% expansion in average interest earning assets. The decline in the net financial income was mainly explained by:
- The impact of the flattening in the slope of the yield curve during 3Q06, which reduced the quarterly net financial margin (the difference between the short-term and 5 year interest rates were 135 basis points in June 2006 and only 58 basis points in September 2006).
- Lower lending spreads.
- The implementation of the new accounting standards which implied the recognition of approximately Ch$230 million in results during 2Q06, which were accounted for in the Gains from forwards derivatives instruments line.

Other Services, net | (636) | (2,027) | (2,646) | 316.0% | ||||
Total fees and income from services decreased by 11.8% amounting to Ch$31,779 million in 3Q06 down from Ch$36,042 million in 3Q05. This decline mainly responded to lower fee income accounted for by the Securities Brokerage subsidiary, to higher cobranding and sales force expenses and lower income related to assets received in lieu of payment (the three of them are registered by the Bank as other services expenses). Regarding fees derived from our core business, they performed well during the quarter, showing an improvement mainly in those related to credit cards, current accounts, debit cards, ATMs and cash management. This increase was principally fueled by enhanced customer base and product usage in the retail segment.
Lower fee income recorded by the Securities Brokerage company was largely the result of higher fees accounted for in 3Q05 related to its participation in stock offerings and to higher corporate advisory incomes derived from the investment banking unit. The decrease in these fees was partially offset by higher fee income attained by the Insurance Brokerage, Socofin and the Financial Advisory subsidiaries. Overall, the Bank’s subsidiaries accounted for 47.4% of total consolidated fees and income from services in 3Q06, a rise compared to the 44.1% reported in 3Q05.
As compared to the previous quarter, fees and income from services declined by 3.4% as a consequence of higher sales force and cobranding expenses, lower fee income associated to credits, lease contracts, foreign branches and mutual funds. On the other hand, the fee income registered by the Financial Advisory subsidiary showed a significant increase during 3Q06 which more than doubled the figure of the previous quarter. The Securities Brokerage company also posted an increase in fee income during 3Q06 principally related to stock transactions and asset management. In addition, fee income derived from credit cards and ATMs increased by 5.7% and 7.7%, respectively, during the current quarter.

Results on financial instruments and non-forward foreign currency derivatives contracts for 3Q06 amounted to Ch$1,983 million, above the Ch$1,275 million reported in 3Q05 and the losses of Ch$3,929 million registered in 2Q06. The positive results attained during 3Q06 were mainly attributed to the decrease of approximately 30 basis points on both local and foreign long-term interest rates during the quarter, which positively affected the market value of Latin American sovereign bonds, Chilean Central Bank securities and mortgage finance bonds maintained by the Bank. On the contrary, during 3Q05 and 2Q06, the long-term interest rate raise adversely impacted on the value of the Bank’s investment portfolio during such quarters.

2006 Third Quarter Results | |
PROVISIONS FOR LOAN LOSSES |
Provisions for loan losses amounted to Ch$9,204 million in 3Q06 above the Ch$7,185 million in 2Q06 and the Ch$4,783 million in 3Q05. This upward trend is consistent with the Bank’s loan portfolio expansion in higher-margin and higher risk portfolios and also with a less dynamic economic environment. As a result, provisions for loan losses have mainly increased in commercial and consumer loans. Accordingly, the Bank’s ratio of provisions for loan losses to average loans increased to 0.41% in 3Q06 compared to 0.33% in 2Q06 and 0.24% in 3Q05. However this figure remains below the system’s average of 0.83% for the current quarter.
As a result of better macroeconomic conditions prevailing since 2004, the Bank’s loan loss recoveries fell by 7.4% between 3Q06 and 3Q05, thus implying a drop in the ratio of recoveries to average loans ratio to 0.34% in 3Q06 from 0.42% posted in last year’s same quarter.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES |
Total Other Income and Expenses amounted to Ch$1,198 million during 3Q06 as compared to a negative Ch$1,202 in 3Q05. This change was due to a higher income from the sale of assets received in lieu of payment previously charged off and, to a lesser extent, to non-recurring earnings associated to credit cards and higher earnings participation in equity investment during 3Q06.
The drop in the other income and expenses line during 3Q06 as compared to the previous quarter, was mainly due to: (i) a non-recurring tax release in 2Q06 of approximately Ch$3,350 million originated from the recognition of a differential between the effective tax paid and what had been provisioned for during prior periods and (ii) higher provisions and lower income from the sale of assets received in lieu of payments previously charged off during 3Q06.
OPERATING EXPENSES |
Total operating expenses in 3Q06 stood at Ch$76,432 million, an increase of 6.0% as compared to 3Q05. This higher level of operating expenses was directly related to the Bank’s commercial expansion which implied:
Page 7 of 16 |
2006 Third Quarter Results | |
- An increase in the number of employees, most of them related to the new branches and commercial positions in the Bank’s Head quarters, which in turn, implied higher level of personnel salaries and expenses.
- Higher marketing and advertising expenses (which covers around 76% of the increase in administrative expenses) principally supporting new promotional campaigns and initiatives towards increasing market share in the retail segment.
- The strengthening of the Bank’s distribution network such as new branches and ATMs, thus increasing rental and depreciation expenses.
- Increase and improvement in the Bank’s transactional and operating capacity involving higher expenses mainly related to computers systems, software and new processes implementation and advisory services.
The Bank registered an improvement in operating leverage during 3Q06 as operating revenues growth of 8.8% exceeded operating expenses growth of 6.0%, resulting in a decrease of 130 basis points in the efficiency ratio from 52.2% in 3Q05 to 50.9% in 3Q06.
Operating expenses remained almost flat during 3Q06 as compared to the previous quarter, as higher expenses accounted for mainly by the Bank and, to a lesser extent, by its subsidiaries, were compensated for with lower advisory expenses in the Bank’s foreign branches. Higher operating expenses from the Bank and its subsidiaries were closely related to higher personnel salaries and expenses arising from the opening of new branches and, to some extent, from additional severance payments.

LOSS (GAINS) FROM PRICE- LEVEL RESTATEMENT |
Gains from price-level restatement increased to Ch$6,086 million in 3Q06 as compared to Ch$4,961 million during 3Q05, mainly as a consequence of: (i) a higher inflation rate used for adjustment purposes (1.4% in 3Q06 compared to 1.3% in 3Q05) and (ii) an increase in non-monetary liabilities, net, as a result of the partial capitalization of the 2005 net income.

In 3Q06, the Bank recorded a tax expense of Ch$7,156 million as compared to Ch$4,802 million in 3Q05, reflecting effective tax rates of 12.0% and 8.7%, in the respective periods. It is worth mentioning that tax expenses during 3Q06 included Ch$1,046 million of allowances to cover the impact of the treatment of derivatives as according to the new accounting regulations implemented in June 2006 in this line.
LOAN PORTFOLIO |
As of September 30, 2006, the Bank’s loan portfolio, net of interbank loans, totaled Ch$9,082,237 million, posting an annual expansion of 15.1% and a quarterly growth of 2.0% . The annual growth has been a consequence of multiple factors such as: adjustments implemented to the commercial organizational structure, distribution network expansion, strengthening of the sales force, product and technology innovation, as well as effective advertising campaigns. In turn, both the retail and wholesale segments grew by approximately 16% during the last twelve-month period. Moreover, the lower-end consumer segment of Credichile and the small-medium companies have grown at a more rapid pace of 17.2% and 19.8%, respectively. In terms of number of debtors, during the last twelve months the Bank has experienced an increase of 15.4% totaling 582,390 as of September 2006.
The annual loan portfolio expansion was mainly driven by commercial, other outstanding, contingent and consumer loans. Commercial and contingent loans have been driven by the wholesale segment, the latter largely, concentrated in the financial services and construction sectors. The other outstanding loans increase was principally related to mortgage loans financed by the Bank’s general borrowings (which in turn more than compensated

the drop in mortgage loans financed with mortgage bonds) and, to a lesser extent, by the growth of factoring contracts. The consumer loans growth was attributable to an annual increase of 28% in credit cards, 21% in lines of credit and 17% in installment loans.
The quarterly loan growth was largely the result of loan expansion in the retail sector which grew by approximately 4.7% as compared to a 1.6% in the wholesale segment. In terms of types of loans, this expansion was principally driven by mortgage loans financed by the Bank’s general borrowings, consumer and commercial loans. It is worth mentioning that during the current quarter the Bank launched aggressive campaigns offering new mortgage and consumer loans with different maturity terms tailored to the customers’ needs. In addition, the Bank continued with its expansion efforts in higher yield products such as factoring and lease contracts which once again increased during the quarter by around 2%. These increases were partially lessened by the contraction experienced by contingent loans mainly related to the financial services sector and by mortgage loans financed by mortgage bonds.

Past due loans amounted to Ch$65,547 million as of September 30, 2006, showing once again a quarterly decline, mainly driven by commercial and residential mortgage loans. Consequently, the past due loan to total loan ratio improved to 0.72% in 3Q06 from 0.75% in 2Q06 and 0.99% in 3Q05, while allowances for loan losses to past due loans remained stable at 215%.
The quarterly decrease in past due loans was mainly related to payments and charged-off of certain commercial loans associated to the financial sector.

FUNDING |
Total liabilities totaled Ch$11,094,695 million as of September 2006, an 11.6% increase compared to a year ago, as a consequence of a 13.7% expansion in interest bearing liabilities and a 7.2% growth in non-interest bearing liabilities.
Other liabilities, mainly related to contingent liabilities (stand by letters of credit) and current accounts were the main drivers of the annual increase in non-interest bearing liabilities. Current accounts continued to increase, despite the rise in the monetary policy short-term reference interest rate during the last year, as a consequence of the Bank’s focus on continually expanding this source of funding. In turn, current account holders have grown by 9.3% during the last twelve months. The increases in these line items of non-interest bearing liabilities more than offset the decline in bankers drafts and other deposits. As we have mentioned in previous releases, the decline in bankers drafts were mainly related to the new on-line high value payment clearing system which became operational in 4Q05 through the new Combanc affiliate (Sociedad Operadora de la Cámara de Pagos de Alto Valor S.A.), thus implying a decrease in the balance of bankers drafts and at the same time a decrease in the cash item in process of collection on the asset side.
The annual growth of 13.7% in the interest bearing liabilities was mostly caused by a significant increase in time deposits and, to a lesser extent, by an increase in subordinated and other bonds. During 2Q06 the Bank issued subordinated bonds, in the international market for U$200 million, while in the current quarter the Bank issued other bonds for a total amount of UF5 million (US$171 million) in the local market. These increases more than offset the decline in foreign borrowings, borrowings from domestic financial institutions and mortgage finance bonds, in line with the contraction of mortgage loans. The decrease in foreign borrowings mainly responded to the prepayment of a syndicated loan made by the Bank during 2Q06 and to the substitution of these liabilities for less expensive funds such as time deposits which are later linked to foreign currency through the use of derivatives instruments.
The 1.6% quarterly increase in total liabilities mainly reflected the aforementioned increases in current accounts, contingent liabilities, time deposits and other bonds.

FINANCIAL INVESTMENTS |
As of September 30, 2006, the Bank’s financial investments totaled Ch$1,278,299 million, a 2.4% and 0.6% annual and quarterly increase, respectively. The Investment portfolio slightly grew as compared to June 2006, in response to an increase of short-term investments in Fed Funds accounted for by the Bank’s foreign branches as trading securities. As of September 2006, the Bank continued to have 97% of its investment portfolio classified as trading securities out of which 48% are central bank securities, 24% investments in foreign countries and 17% investments in local financial institutions.
On September 30, 2006, the investment portfolio was allocated as follows:
SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY |
As of September 30, 2006, the Bank’s Shareholders’ Equity totaled Ch$794,824 million (US$1,477 million), growing 4.8% as compared to 3Q05, mainly due to an increase in capital and reserves and, to a lesser extent, to a 4.2% expansion in the accumulated net income.
The growth in capital and reserves was related to both the capitalization of Ch$30,984 million of the 2005 net income; and, to the application of the new accounting rules which implied an increase of Ch$960 million additional reserves during 2Q06.
As of September 30, 2006, on a consolidated basis, Basic Capital to Total Assets stood at 5.35% while Total Capital to Risk-Adjusted Assets (BIS ratio) posted 11.4%, both ratios above the minimum requirements applicable to Banco de Chile of 3% and 10%, respectively.

The information contained herein incorporates by reference statements which constitute ‘‘forward-looking statements,’’ in that they include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our directors and officers with respect to our future operating performance. Such statements include any forecasts, projections and descriptions of anticipated cost savings or other synergies. You should be aware that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors (including, without limitations, the actions of competitors, future global economic conditions, market conditions, foreign exchange rates, and operating and financial risks related to managing growth and integrating acquired businesses), many of which are beyond our control. The occurrence of any such factors not currently expected by us would significantly alter the results set forth in these statements.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely include, but are not limited to:
- changes in general economic, business or political or other conditions in Chile or changes in general economic or business conditions in Latin America;
- changes in capital markets in general that may affect policies or attitudes toward lending to Chile or Chilean companies;
- unexpected developments in certain existing litigation;
- increased costs;
- unanticipated increases in financing and other costs or the inability to obtain additional debt or equity financing on attractive terms; and
Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, which speak only as of the date that they were made. Our independent public accountants have not examined or compiled the forward-looking statements and, accordingly, do not provide any assurance with respect to such statements. These cautionary statements should be considered in connection with any written or oral forward-looking statements that we may issue in the future. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements after completion of this offering to reflect later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
