Banco Santander, S.A. and Companies composing Santander Group

Explanatory notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2014

1.	Introduction, basis of presentation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and other information

Introduction

Banco Santander, S.A. (“the Bank” or “Banco Santander”) is a private-law entity subject to the rules and regulations applicable to banks operating in Spain. The Bylaws and other public information on the Bank can be consulted on the website of the Bank (www.santander.com) and at its registered office at Paseo de Pereda 9-12, Santander.

In addition to the operations carried on directly by it, the Bank is the head of a group of subsidiaries that engage in various business activities and which compose, together with it, Santander Group (“the Group” or “Santander Group”).

The Group’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“interim financial statements”) were prepared and signed by the directors at the board meeting held on 4 August 2014. The Group's consolidated financial statements for 2013 were approved by the shareholders at the Bank's annual general meeting on 28 March 2014.

Basis of presentation of the interim financial statements

Under Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002, all companies governed by the law of an EU Member State and whose securities are admitted to trading on a regulated market of any Member State must present their consolidated financial statements for the years beginning on or after 1 January 2005 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) previously adopted by the European Union. In order to adapt the accounting system of Spanish credit institutions to the new standards, the Bank of Spain issued Circular 4/2004, of 22 December, on Public and Confidential Financial Reporting Rules and Formats.

Banco Santander, S.A.'s policy is to present its interim financial statements -for their use in the various markets- using the euro as its presentation currency. These financial statements were prepared to comply with the specific requirements and provisions established in Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (CVM), as part of the process for the registration and trading of marketable securities in Brazilian regulated markets, which requires the presentation of interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with financial reporting standard IAS 34 issued by the IASB, in Brazilian reais and in Brazilian Portuguese. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements may not be suitable for other purposes.

The Group’s consolidated financial statements for 2013 prepared in accordance with the specific requirements and provisions of Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (CVM) were prepared by the Bank (and approved at its board of directors meeting on 2 June 2014) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union, taking into account Bank of Spain Circular 4/2004 and in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB-IFRSs), using the basis of consolidation, accounting policies and measurement bases described in Note 2 to the aforementioned consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, they presented fairly the Group’s consolidated equity and consolidated financial position at 31 December 2013, and the consolidated results of its operations, the consolidated recognised income and expense, the changes in consolidated equity and the consolidated cash flows in 2013.

These interim financial statements were prepared and are presented in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, for the preparation of interim condensed financial statements and include disclosures relating to both the three-month period ended 30 June 2014 and the six-month period then ended.

In accordance with IAS 34, the interim financial report is intended only to provide an update on the content of the latest annual consolidated financial statements authorised for issue, focusing on new activities, events and circumstances occurring during the interim period ended 30 June 2014, and does not duplicate information previously reported in the latest approved annual consolidated financial statements. Consequently, these interim financial statements do not include all the information that would be required for a complete set of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRSs and, accordingly, for a proper comprehension of the information included in these interim financial statements, they should be read together with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013.

These half-yearly financial statements are presented in euros (the Bank's functional currency and the Group's presentation currency) and in Brazilian reais. The amounts presented in reais are included solely to comply with the requirements of Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (ICVM 480/09) and subsequent amendments thereto. The balances were translated into reais as indicated in Note 2.a to the Group's consolidated financial statements for 2013 prepared to comply with the specific requirements and provisions of Instruction no. 480/09 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (CVM). As indicated in the aforementioned Note, for practical reasons, income and expenses were translated using the average exchange rate for the period; in this connection, it should be noted that the application of the aforementioned exchange rate or of the exchange rate corresponding to the date of each transaction does not give rise to any significant differences in the Group's interim consolidated financial statements.

The accounting policies and methods used in preparing these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the consolidated financial statements for 2013, taking into account the standards and interpretations that came into force in the first half of 2014. In this connection it should be noted that the following standards and interpretations came into force for the Group in the first half of 2014:

Amendments to IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - these amendments introduce a series of additional clarifications on the requirements established by the standard for an entity to be able to offset a financial asset and a financial liability, indicating that they can only be offset when an entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and this does not depend on the occurrence of future events.

Amendments to IAS 36, Impairment of Assets - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets - these amendments eliminate the requirement to present certain disclosures on the recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit and introduce the obligation to disclose information on the recoverable amount of assets in relation to which an impairment loss was recognised or reversed in the year.

Amendments to IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement - Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting - these amendments introduce an exception to the application of the discontinuation of hedge accounting for novations in which, as a consequence of laws or regulations, the original counterparty of the hedging instrument is replaced by one or more central counterparties, such as clearing agencies, provided that other changes to the hedging instrument are limited to those that are necessary to effect such a replacement of the counterparty.

The application of the aforementioned accounting standards and interpretations did not have any material effects on the Group’s interim financial statements.

In addition, the Group decided to apply the following interpretation early, under IFRSs adopted by the European Union, as permitted by the corresponding standard:

IFRIC 21, Levies - provides clarifying guidance on when to recognise a liability to pay a levy that is accounted for in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, and on obligations to pay a levy whose timing and amount is certain. The obligation to pay is recognised when the activity that triggers the payment of the levy occurs.

The application of this interpretation did not have a material effect on the Group's interim financial statements.

Use of estimates

The consolidated results and the determination of consolidated equity are sensitive to the accounting policies, measurement bases and estimates used by the directors of the Bank in preparing the interim financial statements. The principal accounting policies and measurement bases are indicated in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for 2013.

In the interim financial statements estimates were occasionally made by the senior management of the Bank and of the consolidated entities in order to quantify certain of the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and obligations reported herein. These estimates, which were made on the basis of the best information available, relate basically to the following:

The income tax expense, which, in accordance with IAS 34, is recognised in interim periods based on the best estimate of the weighted average tax rate expected by the Group for the full financial year;

The impairment losses on certain assets - loans and receivables, non-current assets held for sale, investments, tangible assets and intangible assets;

The assumptions used in the calculation of the post-employment benefit liabilities and commitments and other obligations;

The useful life of the tangible and intangible assets;

The measurement of goodwill arising on consolidation;

The fair value of certain unquoted assets and liabilities; and

The recoverability of deferred tax assets.

In the six-month period ended 30 June 2014 there were no significant changes in the estimates made at 2013 year-end other than those indicated in these interim financial statements

Contingent assets and liabilities

Note 2.o to the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013 includes information on the contingent assets and liabilities at that date. There were no significant changes in the Group's contingent assets and liabilities from 31 December 2013 to the date of formal preparation of these interim financial statements.

Comparative information

The information for 2013 contained in these half-yearly financial statements is presented for comparison purposes only with the information relating to the three-month and six-month periods ended 30 June 2014.

In order to interpret the changes in the balances with respect to December 2013, it is necessary to take into consideration the exchange rate effect arising from the volume of foreign currency balances held by the Group in view of its geographic diversity (see Note 51.b to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013) and the impact of the appreciation/depreciation of the various currencies against the euro in the first six months of 2014, considering the exchange rates at the end of the first half of 2014, was as follows: Mexican peso (+2.04%), US dollar (+0.97%), Brazilian real (+8.58%), pound sterling (4.02%), Chilean peso (-3.91%) and Polish zloty (-0.06%).

Seasonality of the Group's transactions

In view of the business activities carried on by the Group entities, their transactions are not cyclical or seasonal in nature. Therefore, no specific disclosures are included in these explanatory notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six-month period.

Materiality

In determining the note disclosures to be made on the various items in the financial statements or other matters, the Group, in accordance with IAS 34, took into account their materiality in relation to the interim financial statements.

Events after the reporting period

It should be noted that from 1 July 2014 to the date on which the financial statements for the first half of 2014 were authorised for issue, the following significant events occurred at Santander Group:

On 10 July 2014, the Bank announced that it had reached an agreement for the French insurance company CNP to acquire a 51% stake in the three insurance companies that service Santander's consumer finance unit (Santander Consumer Finance) and which are based in Ireland. The agreement, which is subject to the relevant regulatory authorisations, values all the shares of the insurance companies, which sell life and non-life products through the Santander Consumer Finance network, at EUR 568 million (BRL 1,718 million). The transaction is scheduled to be completed before the end of the year.

At its meeting of 11 July 2014, the Bank’s executive committee resolved to apply the Santander Dividendo Elección scrip dividend scheme on the dates on which the first interim dividend is traditionally

paid, whereby the shareholders were offered the option of receiving an amount equivalent to said dividend of EUR 0.152 (BRL 0.46) per share, in shares or cash.

On 24 July 2014, Mr Vittorio Corbo Lioi presented his resignation and retired from the board of the Bank.

Condensed consolidated statements of cash flows

The following terms are used in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows with the meanings specified:

Cash flows: inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents, which are short-term, highly liquid investments that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, irrespective of the portfolio in which they are classified.

The Group classifies as cash and cash equivalents the balances recognised under Cash and balances with central banks in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Operating activities: the principal revenue-producing activities of credit institutions and other activities that are not investing or financing activities.

Investing activities: the acquisition and disposal of long-term assets and other investments not included in cash and cash equivalents.

Financing activities: activities that result in changes in the size and composition of the equity and liabilities that are not operating activities.

The condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the first half of 2013 shows a reduction in the cash flows from operating activities of EUR 32,129 million (BRL 85,591 million). This reduction arose mainly from the repayment by the Group of EUR 33,400 million (BRL 88,977 million) of funds obtained from the European Central Bank since 2011–the so-called LTROs (Long Term Refinancing Operations).

Altamira Asset Management, S.L.	Disposal	03/01/14	85.00%	15.00%	1,246

The most significant transactions performed in the first half of 2014 were as follows:

Sale of Altamira Asset Management

On 21 November 2013, the Group announced that it had reached a preliminary agreement with Apollo European Principal Finance Fund II, a fund managed by subsidiaries of Apollo Global Management, LLC, for the sale of the platform for managing the recovery of Banco Santander, S.A.'s loans in Spain and for managing and marketing the properties obtained through this activity (Altamira Asset Management, S.L.).

On 3 January 2014, the Group announced that it had sold 85% of the share capital of Altamira Asset Management, S.L. to Altamira Asset Management Holdings, S.L., an investee of Apollo European Principal Finance Fund II, for EUR 664 million (BRL 2,150 million), giving rise to a net gain of EUR 385 million (BRL 1,246 million), which was recognised at its gross amount under Gains/(losses) on disposal of assets not classified as non-current assets held for sale in the consolidated income statement for the first half of 2014.

Following this transaction, the Group retained the aforementioned property assets and loan portfolio on its balance sheet, while management of these assets is carried out from the platform owned by Apollo.

Santander Consumer USA

In January 2014 the public offering of shares of Santander Consumer USA Inc. (SCUSA) was completed and the company was admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange. The placement represented 21.6% of SCUSA's share capital, of which 4% related to the holding sold by the Group. Following this sale, at 30 June 2014, the Group holds 60.47% of the share capital of SCUSA. Both Sponsor Auto Finance Holdings Series LP (Sponsor Holdings) -an investee of funds controlled by Warburg Pincus LLC, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and Centerbridge Partners L.P.- and DDFS LLC (DDFS) -a company controlled by Thomas G. Dundon, who holds the position of Chief Executive Officer of SCUSA- also reduced their holdings.

Since the ownership interests of the aforementioned shareholders were reduced to below certain percentages following the placement, the shareholder agreement previously entered into by the shareholders was terminated, pursuant to the terms and conditions established in said agreement; this entailed the termination of the agreements which, inter alia, had granted Sponsor Holdings and DDFS representation on the board of directors of SCUSA and had established a voting system under which the strategic, financial and operating decisions, and other significant decisions associated with the ordinary management of SCUSA, were subject to joint approval by the Group and the aforementioned shareholders. Therefore, SCUSA ceased to be controlled jointly by all the above and is now controlled by the Group on the basis of the percentage held in its share capital (“change of control”).

Prior to this change of control the Group accounted for its ownership interest in SCUSA using the equity method. Following the obtainment of control, the Group now fully consolidates its ownership interest in SCUSA and, at the date on which it obtained control, it included all of SCUSA's assets and liabilities in its consolidated balance sheet at their fair value.

The Group did not make any disbursement in relation to this change of control and, therefore, goodwill was determined by reference to the fair value of SCUSA implicit in the public offering. The detail of the provisional fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the business combination date is as follows:

	Millions of euros
Cash and balances with central banks	1,185
Financial assets held for trading	22
Loans and receivables - loans and advances to customers (*)	16,113
Tangible assets	1,636
Intangible assets (**)	508

Non-controlling interests	(2,810)
Fair value of employee share option plans	(305)
Cost of investment	(12,139)
Goodwill at January 2014	8,096

(*)	The estimate of fair value includes gains of EUR 18 million (BRL 58 million).

(**)	The preliminary valuation work identified the following intangible assets additional to those already existing:

	-	Relationships with concession operator networks amounting to EUR 429 million (BRL 1,390 million) with an average amortisation period of approximately 17 years

	-	Trademarks amounting to EUR 37 million (BRL 122 million)

(***)	In the estimate of fair value, the value of marketable debt securities increased by EUR 117 million (BRL 378 million).

The foregoing fair values are based on the information available at that date and they may be adjusted in the next seven months from 30 June 2014, as provided for in IFRS 3.

In order to determine the fair value of loans and receivables, the loans and receivables were segregated into portfolios of loans with similar features and for each portfolio the present value of the cash flows expected to be received was calculated on the basis of the estimated future losses and prepayment rates.

Goodwill is attributable to the strong capability and proven experience of SCUSA’s employees and management team.

As a result of the aforementioned transaction, the Group recognised a net gain of EUR 730 million (BRL 2,365 million), included at its gross amount under Gains/(losses) on disposal of assets not classified as non-current assets held for sale in the consolidated income statement for the first half of 2014, of which EUR 688 million (BRL 2,229 million) relate to the recognition at fair value of the interest held by the Group.

Agreement with El Corte Inglés

On 7 October 2013, the Group announced that it had entered into a strategic agreement through its subsidiary Santander Consumer Finance, S.A. with El Corte Inglés, S.A. in the area of consumer finance, which included the acquisition of 51% of the share capital of Financiera El Corte Inglés E.F.C., S.A., with El Corte Inglés, S.A. retaining the remaining 49%. On 27 February 2014, following the obtainment of the relevant regulatory and competition authorisations, the acquisition was completed. Santander Consumer Finance, S.A. paid EUR 140 million (BRL 449 million) for 51% of the share capital of Financiera El Corte Inglés E.F.C., S.A.

Earnings per share from continuing and discontinued operations

i. Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share for the period are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the Group for the six-month period (adjusted by the after-tax amount relating to the remuneration of contingently convertible preference shares recognised in equity - see Note 9) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding the average number of treasury shares held in the period.

ii. Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share for the period are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the Group for the six-month period (adjusted by the after-tax amount relating to the remuneration of contingently convertible preference shares recognised in equity - see Note 9) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding the average number of treasury shares and adjusted for all the dilutive effects inherent to potential ordinary shares (share options, warrants and convertible debt instruments).

Grupo Financiero Santander (Mexico)		1,656		1,762
Other companies		3,037		3,156
		79,996		75,840

The changes from 31 December 2013 to 30 June 2014 relate mainly to the recognition of the goodwill associated with the obtainment of control over Santander Consumer USA (see Note 2). In addition, in the first half of 2014, goodwill increased by EUR 827 million due to exchange differences which, pursuant to current regulations, were recognised with a credit to Valuation adjustments - Exchange differences in equity in the consolidated statement of recognised income and expense.

Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013 includes detailed information on the procedures followed by the Group to analyse the potential impairment losses on the goodwill recognised with respect to its recoverable amount and to recognise the related impairment, as appropriate.

Accordingly, based on the analysis performed of the available information on the performance of the various cash-generating units which might evidence the existence of indications of impairment, the Group's directors concluded that in the first half of 2014 there were no impairment losses which required recognition.

Other intangible assets

In the first half of 2014, there were impairment losses amounting to EUR 688 million (BRL 2,165 million) which were recognised under Impairment losses on other assets (net) in the consolidated income statement. The aforementioned impairment losses correspond, mainly, to the decrease on the recovery amount of certain systems and computer applications pursuant to the process the Group initiated for both the adoption of different regulatory changes and the transformation and integration of businesses.

On 5 March 2014, Banco Santander, S.A. announced that its executive committee had resolved to launch an issue of preference shares contingently convertible into newly issued ordinary shares of the Bank (“CCPSs”) with exclusion of the pre-emptive subscription rights and for a nominal amount of up to EUR 1,500 million (BRL 4,823 million) (“the Issue”). The Issue was placed using an accelerated demand research process and only targeted qualified investors.

The Issue was launched at par and the interest on the CCPSs, the payment of which is subject to certain conditions and is discretionary, was set at 6.25% annually for the first five years, to be reviewed thereafter by applying a 541 basis point spread on the 5-year Mid-Swap Rate.

On 25 March 2014, the Bank of Spain approved the eligibility of the CCPSs as Additional Tier 1 capital under the new European capital requirements of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The CCPSs are perpetual, although they may be repurchased in certain circumstances and would convert into newly issued ordinary shares of Banco Santander if the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of the Bank or its consolidable group falls below 5.125%, calculated in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The CCPSs are traded on the Global Exchange Market of the Irish Stock Exchange, since 12 March 2014, the date these CCPSs were issued.

The final amount of the issue was USD 1,500 million (BRL 3,322 million). The shares were issued at par with fixed discretional payments subject to certain conditions amounting to 6.375% annually for the first five years, to be repriced thereafter by applying a 478.8 basis point spread to the 5-year Mid-Swap Rate.

On 28 May 2014, the Bank of Spain approved the eligibility of the CCPSs as Additional Tier 1 capital under Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The CCPSs are perpetual, although they may be repurchased in certain circumstances and would convert into newly issued ordinary shares of Banco Santander if the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of the Bank or its consolidable group falls below 5.125%, calculated in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The CCPSs are traded on the Global Exchange Market of the Irish Stock Exchange, since 19 May 2014, the date these CCPSs were issued.

Furthermore, on 29 January 2014, Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. launched an issue of Tier 1 perpetual subordinated notes with a nominal amount of USD 1,248 million (BRL 3,000 million), of which the Group has acquired 89.6%.

10.	Provisions

Breakdown

The detail of Provisions in the balance sheets at 30 June 2014 and 31 December 2013 is as follows:

	Millions of euros
	30/06/14		31/12/13

Provision for pensions and similar obligations		9,346		9,126
Provisions for taxes and other legal contingencies		2,899		2,727
Provisions for contingent liabilities and commitments		688		693
Of which: due to country risk		2		4
Other provisions		2,272		1,929
Provisions		15,205		14,475

	Millions of reais
	30/06/14		31/12/13

Provision for pensions and similar obligations		28,041		29,729
Provisions for taxes and other legal contingencies		8,696		8,883
Provisions for contingent liabilities and commitments		2,064		2,258
Of which: due to country risk		6		13
Other provisions		6,816		6,284
Provisions		45,617		47,154

Provisions for pensions and similar obligations

The increase in the balance of Provisions for pensions and similar obligations in the first half of 2014 related mainly to the charge of EUR 576 million (BRL 1,814 million) to the provision for pre-retirements in Spain. This amount was offset in part by the pension payments, as well as the reduction in obligations in the UK amounting to EUR 280 million (BRL 841 million), as a result of the agreement reached to limit pensionable salary.

Provisions for taxes and other legal contingencies and Other provisions

Set forth below is the detail, by type of provision, of the balance at 30 June 2014 and at 31 December 2013 of Provisions for taxes and other legal contingencies and Other provisions. The types of provision were determined by grouping together items of a similar nature:

	Millions of euros
	30/06/14		31/12/13

Provisions for taxes		1,228		1,177
Provisions for employment-related proceedings (Brazil)		719		638
Provisions for other legal proceedings		1,010		912
Provision for customer remediation (UK)		415		465
Regulatory framework-related provisions (UK)		192		201
Provision for restructuring		464		378
Other		1,143		885
		5,171		4,656

	Millions of reais
	30/06/14		31/12/13

Provisions for taxes		3,684		3,834
Provisions for employment-related proceedings (Brazil)		2,157		2,078
Provisions for other legal proceedings		3,030		2,971
Provision for customer remediation (UK)		1,245		1,515
Regulatory framework-related provisions (UK)		576		655
Provision for restructuring		1,392		1,231
Other		3,428		2,883
		15,512		15,167

Relevant information is set forth below in relation to each type of provision shown in the preceding table:

The provisions for taxes include provisions for tax-related proceedings.

The provisions for employment-related proceedings (Brazil) relate to claims filed by trade unions, associations, the prosecutor's office and ex-employees claiming employment rights to which, in their view, they are entitled, particularly the payment of overtime and other employment rights, including litigation concerning retirement benefits. The number and nature of these proceedings, which are common for banks in Brazil, justify the classification of these provisions in a separate category or as a separate type from the rest. The Group calculates the provisions associated with these claims in accordance with past experience of payments made in relation to claims for similar items. When claims do not fall within these categories, a case-by-case assessment is performed and the amount of the provision is calculated in accordance with the status of each proceeding and the risk assessment carried out by the legal advisers. The average duration of the employment-related proceedings is approximately eight years.

The provisions for other legal proceedings include provisions for court, arbitration or administrative proceedings (other than those included in other categories or types of provisions disclosed separately) brought against Santander Group companies.

The provisions for customer remediation (UK) include the estimated cost of payments to remedy errors relating to the sale of certain products in the UK. To calculate the provision for customer compensation, the best estimate of the provision made by management is used, which is based on the conclusions on the number of claims to be received and, of these, the number that will be accepted, as well as the estimated average payment per case.

The regulatory framework-related provisions (UK) include mainly the provisions relating to payments under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and for the bank levy introduced by the 2011 Finance Act.

The provisions for restructuring include only the direct costs arising from restructuring processes carried out by various Group companies.

Qualitative information on the main litigation is provided in Note 10.d.

The increase in the balances of Provisions for taxes and other legal contingencies and Other provisions relates mainly to the changes in exchange rates in the half-year and to the following movements: with respect to Brazil, the main charges to the income statement for the period ended 30 June 2014 were EUR 134 million (BRL 422 million) due to civil contingencies and EUR 162 million (BRL 510 million) due to employment-related claims in Brazil; these increases were partially offset by the use of the available provisions, of which EUR 153 million (BRL 481 million) related to employment-related payments, EUR 119 million (BRL 374 million) to civil payments and EUR 131 million (BRL 412 million) to provisions for restructuring. In the UK, provisions of EUR 105 million (BRL 330 million) for customer remediation and EUR 89 million (BRL 280 million) for restructuring were recognised in the first six months of 2014; these increases were offset by payments of EUR 176 million (BRL 554 million) of customer remediation and EUR 19 million (BRL 60 million) for restructuring. In Spain, provisions for restructuring of EUR 147 million (BRL 463 million) were recognised, of which EUR 39 million (BRL 123 million) were used.

Litigation

Our general policy is to record provisions for tax and legal proceedings in which we assess the chances of loss to be probable and we do not record provisions when the chances of loss are possible or remote. We determine the amounts to be provided for as our best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the corresponding claim based, among other factors, on a case-by-case analysis of the facts and the legal opinion of internal and external counsel or by considering the historical average amount of the loss incurred in such category of lawsuits.

i. Tax-related litigation

At 30 June 2014, the main tax-related proceedings concerning the Group were as follows:

Legal actions filed by Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. and certain Group companies in Brazil challenging the increase in the rate of Brazilian social contribution tax on net income from 9% to 15% stipulated by Interim Measure 413/2008, ratified by Law 11727/2008, a provision having been recognised for the amount of the estimated loss.

Legal actions filed by certain Group companies in Brazil claiming their right to pay the Brazilian social contribution tax on net income at a rate of 8% and 10% from 1994 to 1998. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability.

Legal actions filed by Banco Santander Brasil, S.A. (currently Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A.) and other Group entities claiming their right to pay the Brazilian PIS and COFINS social contributions only on the income from the provision of services. In the case of Banco Santander Brasil, S.A., the legal action was

declared unwarranted and an appeal was filed at the Federal Regional Court. In September 2007 the Federal Regional Court found in favour of Banco Santander Brasil, S.A., but the Brazilian authorities appealed against the judgment at the Federal Supreme Court. In the case of Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. (currently Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A.), in March 2007 the court found in its favour, but the Brazilian authorities appealed against the judgment at the Federal Regional Court, which handed down a decision partly upholding the appeal in September 2009. Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. filed an appeal at the Federal Supreme Court. Law 12865/2013 established a programme of payments or deferrals of certain tax and social security debts, exempting the entities availing themselves of the Law from paying late-payment interest and withdrawing the legal actions brought. In November 2013 Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. partially availed itself of this programme but only with respect to the legal actions brought by the former Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. in relation to the period from September 2006 to April 2009, and with respect to other minor actions brought by other entities in its Group. However, the legal actions brought by Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. and those of Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. relating to the periods prior to September 2006, for which the estimated loss was provided for, still subsist.

Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. and other Group companies in Brazil have appealed against the assessments issued by the Brazilian tax authorities questioning the deduction of loan losses in their income tax returns (IRPJ and CSLL) on the ground that the relevant requirements under the applicable legislation were not met. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability.

Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. and other Group companies in Brazil are involved in several administrative and legal proceedings against various municipalities that demand payment of the Service Tax on certain items of income from transactions not classified as provisions of services. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability.

In addition, Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. and other Group companies in Brazil are involved in several administrative and legal proceedings against the tax authorities in connection with the taxation for social security purposes of certain items which are not considered to be employee remuneration. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability.

In December 2008 the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. in relation to income tax (IRPJ and CSLL) for 2002 to 2004. The tax authorities took the view that Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. did not meet the necessary legal requirements to be able to deduct the goodwill arising on the acquisition of Banespa (currently Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A.). Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. filed an appeal against the infringement notice at Conselho Administrativo de Recursos Fiscais (CARF), which on 21 October 2011 unanimously decided to render the infringement notice null and void. The tax authorities have appealed against this decision at a higher administrative level. In June 2010 the Brazilian tax authorities issued infringement notices in relation to this same matter for 2005 to 2007. Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. filed an appeal against these procedures at CARF, which was partially upheld on 8 October 2013. This decision will be appealed at the higher instance of CARF (Tax Appeal High Chamber). In December 2013 the Brazilian tax authorities issued the infringement notice relating to 2008, the last year for amortisation of the goodwill. This infringement notice will be appealed by Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. Based on the advice of its external legal counsel and in view of the first decision by CARF, the Group considers that the stance taken by the Brazilian tax authorities is incorrect and that there are sound defence arguments to appeal against the infringement notices. Accordingly, the risk of incurring a loss is remote. Consequently, no provisions have been recognised in connection with these proceedings because this matter should not affect the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2003 the Brazilian tax authorities issued separate infringement notices against Santander Distribuidora de Títulos e Valores Mobiliarios Ltda. (DTVM) and Banco Santander Brasil, S.A. (currently Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A.) in relation to the Provisional Tax on Financial Movements (CPMF) with respect to certain transactions carried out by DTVM in the management of its customers' funds and for

the clearing services provided by Banco Santander Brasil, S.A. to DTVM in 2000, 2001 and the first two months of 2002. Both entities appealed against the infringement notices at CARF, with DTVM obtaining a favourable decision and Banco Santander Brasil, S.A. an unfavourable decision. Both decisions were appealed by the losing parties at the Higher Chamber of CARF, and the appeal relating to Banco Santander Brasil, S.A. is pending a decision. With respect to DTVM, on 24 August 2012, it was notified of a decision overturning the previous favourable judgment and lodged an appeal at the Higher Chamber of CARF on 29 August 2012. In the opinion of its legal advisers, the Group considers that the tax treatment applied in these transactions was correct. No provision was recognised in the consolidated financial statements in relation to this litigation as it was considered a contingent liability.

In December 2010 the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Santander Seguros, S.A., as the successor by merger to ABN AMRO Brazil Dois Participacoes, S.A., in relation to income tax (IRPJ and CSL) for 2005. The tax authorities questioned the tax treatment applied to a sale of shares of Real Seguros, S.A. made in that year. The bank filed an appeal for reconsideration against this infringement notice. As the former parent of Santander Seguros, S.A. (Brasil), Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. is liable in the event of any adverse outcome of this proceeding. No provision was recognised in connection with this proceeding as it was considered to be a contingent liability.

Also, in December 2010, the Brazilian tax authorities issued infringement notices against Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. in connection with income tax (IRPJ and CSLL), questioning the tax treatment applied to the economic compensation received under the contractual guarantees provided by the sellers of the former Banco Meridional. The bank filed an appeal for reconsideration against this infringement notice. On 23 November 2011, CARF unanimously decided to render null and void an infringement notice relating to 2002 with regard to the same matter, and the decision was declared final in February 2012. The proceedings relating to the 2003 to 2006 fiscal years are still in progress. No provision was recognised in connection with this proceeding as it was considered to be a contingent liability.

In June 2013, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. as the party liable for tax on the capital gain allegedly obtained in Brazil by the entity not resident in Brazil, Sterrebeeck B.V., as a result of the “incorporação de ações” (merger of shares) transaction carried out in August 2008. As a result of the aforementioned transaction, Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. acquired all of the shares of Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. and ABN AMRO Brasil Dois Participações, S.A. through the delivery to these entities' shareholders of newly issued shares of Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A., issued in a capital increase carried out for that purpose. The Brazilian tax authorities take the view that in the aforementioned transaction Sterrebeeck B.V. obtained income subject to tax in Brazil consisting of the difference between the issue value of the shares of Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. that were received and the acquisition cost of the shares delivered in the exchange. The Group lodged an appeal against the infringement notice at the Federal Tax Office and considers, based on the advice of its external legal counsel, that the stance taken by the Brazilian tax authorities is not correct, that there are sound defence arguments to appeal against the infringement notice and that, therefore, the risk of loss is remote. Consequently, the Group has not recognised any provisions in connection with these proceedings because this matter should not affect the consolidated financial statements.

Legal action brought by Sovereign Bancorp, Inc. (currently Santander Holdings USA, Inc.) claiming its right to take an international double taxation tax credit in connection with taxes paid outside the United States in fiscal years 2003 to 2005 in relation to financing transactions carried out with an international bank. Santander Holdings USA Inc. considers that, in accordance with applicable tax legislation, it is entitled to recognise the aforementioned tax credits as well as the related issuance and financing costs. In addition, if the outcome of this legal action is favourable to the interests of Santander Holdings USA, Inc., the amounts paid over by the entity in relation to this matter with respect to 2006 and 2007 would have to be refunded. In 2013 the US courts found against two taxpayers in cases with a similar structure In the case of Santander Holdings USA, Inc. the proceeding was scheduled for 7 October 2013, although it was adjourned indefinitely when the judge found in favour of Santander Holdings USA, Inc.

with respect to one of the main grounds of the case. Santander Holdings USA, Inc. is expecting the judge to rule within the next few months on whether his previous decision will result in the proceedings being stayed in the case or whether other matters need to be analysed before a final decision may be handed down. If the decision is favourable to Santander Holdings USA, Inc.'s interests, the US government has stated its intention to appeal against it. The estimated loss relating to this proceeding was provided for.

At the date of approval of these interim financial statements certain other less significant tax-related proceedings were also in progress.

ii. Other litigation

At 30 June 2014, the main non-tax-related proceedings concerning the Group were as follows:

Customer remediation: claims associated with the sale by Santander UK of certain financial products (principally payment protection insurance (PPI)) to its customers.

At 30 June 2014, the provision in this connection totalled GBP 169 million (31 December 2013: GBP 165 million). The number of claims received remained in line with that of the last quarter of 2013, when there was an exceptional fall. In addition, the volume of rejected claims continued to be high. Also, the monthly cost of compensation fell to GBP 10 million in the first quarter of 2014 from a monthly average of GBP 11 million in the last quarter of 2013 and of GBP 18 million over 2013.

Proceeding under Criminal Procedure Law filed by Galesa de Promociones, S.A. against the Bank at Elche Court of First Instance no. 5, Alicante (case no. 1946/2008). The claim sought damages amounting to EUR 51 million as a result of a judgment handed down by the Supreme Court on 24 November 2004 setting aside a summary mortgage proceeding filed by the Bank against the plaintiff company.

On 2 March 2010, the court of first instance handed down a decision partly upholding both the claim filed against the Bank and the counterclaim. On 11 November 2010, the Alicante Provincial Appellate Court handed down a decision upholding the appeal filed by the Bank and dismissing the appeal brought by Galesa de Promociones, S.A., as a result of which and by way of offsetting the indemnity obligations payable by each party, the Bank became a creditor of Galesa in the amount EUR 0.4 million.

Galesa de Promociones, S.A. filed a cassation appeal against the above decision at the Supreme Court. The appeal was dismissed in a judgment by the Supreme Court on 17 July 2013, against which the appellant filed a motion for annulment which was dismissed by the Court. The Bank has not recognised a provision in this connection.

After the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court had rendered null and void the award handed down in the previous arbitration proceeding, on 8 September 2011, Banco Santander, S.A. filed a new request for arbitration with the Spanish Arbitration Court against Delforca 2008, S.A. (formerly Gaesco Bolsa Sociedad de Valores, S.A.), claiming EUR 66 million that the latter owes it as a result of the declaration on 4 January 2008 of the early termination by the Bank of all the financial transactions agreed upon between the parties.

On 3 August 2012, Delforca 2008, S.A. was declared to be in a position of voluntary insolvency by Barcelona Commercial Court no. 10, which had agreed as part of the insolvency proceeding to stay the arbitration proceeding and the effects of the arbitration agreement entered into by Banco Santander, S.A. and Delforca 2008, S.A. The Bank filed an appeal against this decision, which was dismissed and it then proceeded to prepare a challenge with a view to filing a future appeal. The Arbitration Court, in compliance with the decision of the Commercial Court, agreed on 20 January 2013 to stay the arbitration proceedings at the stage reached at that date until a decision could be reached in this respect in the insolvency proceeding.

In addition, as part of the insolvency proceeding of Delforca 2008, S.A., Banco Santander, S.A. notified its claim against the insolvent party with a view to having the claim recognised as a contingent ordinary claim without specified amount. However, the insolvency manager opted to exclude Banco Santander, S.A.'s claim from the provisional list of creditors and, accordingly, Banco Santander, S.A. filed an ancillary claim on which a decision has not yet been handed down. In this ancillary claim (still in progress), Delforca 2008, S.A. and the insolvency manager are seeking to obtain a decision from the Court on the merits of the dispute between Banco Santander, S.A. and Delforca 2008, S.A. Accordingly, Banco Santander, S.A. has appealed against the interlocutory order that admitted for consideration the evidence proposed by them. The appeal was not given leave to proceed and Banco Santander has prepared the corresponding protest.

As part of the same insolvency proceeding, Delforca 2008, S.A. has filed another ancillary claim requesting the termination of the arbitration agreement included in the framework financial transactions agreement entered into by that party and Banco Santander, S.A. in 1998, as well as the termination of the obligation that allegedly binds the insolvent party to the High Council of Chambers of Commerce (Spanish Arbitration Court). Banco Santander, S.A. filed its reply to the complaint on 21 June 2013, although it has repeatedly questioned the court’s objective jurisdiction to hear the complaint, as has the High Council of Chambers of Commerce, Industry and Shipping. The Commercial Court dismissed the motions for declinatory exception filed by Banco Santander and also dismissed the motion for declinatory exception filed by the High Council. These decisions have been appealed.

On 30 December 2013, Banco Santander filed a complaint requesting the termination of the insolvency proceeding of Delforca 2008, S.A. due to supervening disappearance of the alleged insolvency of the company. The complaint was dismissed by the decision of 30 June 2014 against which the Bank proceeded to prepare a challenge with a view to filing a future appeal.

In addition, in April 2009 Mobilaria Monesa, S.A. (parent of Delforca 2008, S.A.) filed a claim against Banco Santander, S.A. at Santander Court of First Instance no. 5, claiming damages which it says it incurred as a result of the (in its opinion) unwarranted claim filed by the Bank against its subsidiary, reproducing the same objections as Delforca 2008, S.A. This proceeding has currently been stayed on preliminary civil ruling grounds, against which Mobilaria Monesa, S.A. filed an appeal which was dismissed by the Cantabria Provincial Appellate Court in a judgment dated 16 January 2014.

Lastly, on 11 April 2012, Banco Santander, S.A. was notified of the claim filed by Delforca 2008, S.A., heard by Madrid Court of First Instance no. 21, in which it sought indemnification for the damage and losses it alleges it incurred due to the (in its opinion) unwarranted claim by the Bank. Delforca 2008, S.A. made the request in a counterclaim filed in the arbitration proceeding that concluded with the annulled award, putting the figure at up to EUR 218 million, although in its present claim it invokes Article 219.3 of the Civil Procedure Law in order to leave for a subsequent proceeding the amount to be settled (as the case may be) by the Bank. The aforementioned Court has dismissed the motion for declinatory exception proposed by Banco Santander, S.A. as the matter has been referred for arbitration. This decision was confirmed in an appeal at the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court in a judgment dated 27 May 2014. The Group considers that the risk of loss arising as a result of these matters is remote and, accordingly, it has not recognised any provisions in connection with these proceedings.

Former employees of Banco do Estado de São Paulo S.A., Santander Banespa, Cia. de Arrendamiento Mercantil: a claim was filed in 1998 by the association of retired Banespa employees (AFABESP) on behalf of its members, requesting the payment of a half-yearly bonus initially envisaged in the entity’s Bylaws in the event that the entity obtained a profit and that the distribution of this profit were approved by the board of directors. The bonus was not paid in 1994 and 1995 since the bank did not make a profit and

partial payments were made from 1996 to 2000, as agreed by the board of directors, and the relevant clause was eliminated in 2001. The Regional Employment Court ordered the bank to pay this half-yearly bonus in September 2005 and the bank filed an appeal against the decision at the High Employment Court (“TST”) and, subsequently, at the Federal Supreme Court (“STF”). The TST confirmed the judgment against the Bank, whereas the STF rejected the extraordinary appeal filed by the bank in a decision adopted by only one of the Court members, thereby also upholding the order issued to the Bank. This decision was appealed by the Bank and the association. Only the appeal lodged by the Bank has been given leave to proceed and will be decided upon by the STF in plenary session.

"Planos economicos": Like the rest of the banking system, Santander Brazil has been the subject of claims from customers, mostly depositors, and of class actions brought for a common reason, arising from a series of legislative changes relating to the calculation of inflation ("planos economicos"). The claimants considered that their vested rights had been impaired due to the immediate application of these adjustments. In April 2010, the High Court of Justice ("STJ") set the limitation period for these class actions at 5 years, as claimed by the banks, rather than 20 years, as sought by the claimants, which will probably significantly reduce the number of actions brought and the amounts claimed in this connection. As regards the substance of the matter, the decisions issued to date have been adverse for the banks, although two proceedings have been brought at the STJ and the Supreme Federal Court ("STF") with which the matter is expected to be definitively settled. In August 2010, the STJ handed down a decision finding for the plaintiffs in terms of substance, but excluding one of the “planos” from the claim, thereby reducing the amount thereof, and once again confirming the five-year statute-of-limitations period. Shortly thereafter, the STF issued an injunctive relief order whereby the proceedings in progress were stayed until this court issues a final decision on the matter.

Proceeding under Criminal Procedure Law (case no. 1043/2009) conducted at Madrid Court of First Instance no. 26, following a claim brought by Banco Occidental de Descuento, Banco Universal, C.A. against the Bank for USD 150 million in principal plus USD 4.7 million in interest, upon alleged termination of an escrow contract.

The court upheld the claim and ordered the Bank to pay the amount claimed plus interest, but did not make a specific pronouncement on costs. Both the plaintiff and the defendant filed appeals to a superior court. A judgment handed down by the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court on 9 October 2012 upheld the appeal lodged by the Bank, revoking the ruling handed down by the court, and dismissed the appeal lodged by Banco Occidental de Descuento, Banco Universal, C.A. The Madrid Provincial Appellate Court handed down an ancillary order to the judgment, also dismissing the subsidiary action brought against the Bank. An appeal was filed at the Supreme Court by Banco Occidental de Descuento against the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court decision. The Bank has challenged the appeal. The Bank has not recognised any provisions in this connection.

On 26 January 2011, notice was served on the Bank of an ancillary insolvency claim to annul acts detrimental to the assets available to creditors as part of the voluntary insolvency proceedings of Mediterráneo Hispa Group, S.A. at Murcia Commercial Court no. 2. The aim of the principal action is to request annulment of the application of the proceeds obtained by the company undergoing insolvency from an asset sale and purchase transaction involving EUR 32 million in principal and EUR 2.7 million in interest. On 24 November 2011, the hearing was held with the examination of the proposed evidence. Upon completion of the hearing, it was resolved to conduct a final proceeding. The Court dismissed the claim in full in a judgment dated 13 November 2013. The judgment was confirmed at appeal by the Murcia Provincial Appellate Court in a judgment dated 10 July 2014.

The bankruptcy of various Lehman Group companies was made public on 15 September 2008. Various customers of Santander Group were affected by this situation since they had invested in securities issued by Lehman or in other products which had such assets as their underlying.

At the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, certain claims had been filed in relation to this matter. The Bank’s directors and its legal advisers consider that the various Lehman products were sold in accordance with the applicable legal regulations in force at the time of each sale or subscription and that the fact that the Group acted as intermediary would not give rise to any liability for it in relation to the insolvency of Lehman. Accordingly, the risk of loss is considered to be remote and, as a result, no provisions needed to be recognised in this connection.

The intervention, on the grounds of alleged fraud, of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC ("Madoff Securities") by the US Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") took place in December 2008. The exposure of customers of the Group through the Optimal Strategic US Equity ("Optimal Strategic") subfund was EUR 2,330 million, of which EUR 2,010 million related to institutional investors and international private banking customers, and the remaining EUR 320 million made up the investment portfolios of the Group's private banking customers in Spain, who were qualifying investors.

At the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, certain claims had been filed against Group companies in relation to this matter. The Group considers that it has at all times exercised due diligence and that these products have always been sold in a transparent way pursuant to applicable legislation and established procedures. The risk of loss is therefore considered to be remote or immaterial.

At the end of the first quarter of 2013, news stories were published stating that the public sector was debating the validity of the interest rate swaps arranged between various financial institutions and public sector companies in Portugal, particularly in the public transport industry.

The swaps under debate included swaps arranged by Banco Santander Totta with the public companies Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. (MdL), Metro do Porto, S.A. (MdP), Sociedade de Transportes Colectivos do Porto, S.A. (STCP) and Companhia Carris de Ferro de Lisboa, S.A. (Carris). These swaps were arranged prior to 2008, i.e. before the start of the financial crisis, and had been executed without incident.

In view of this situation Banco Santander Totta took the initiative to request a court judgment on the validity of the swaps in the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom to which the swaps are subject. The corresponding claims were filed in May 2013.

After the Bank had filed the claims, the four companies (MdL, MdP, STCP and Carris) notified Banco Santander Totta that they were suspending payment of the amounts owed under the swaps until a final decision had been handed down in the UK jurisdiction in the proceedings. MdL, MdP and Carris suspended payment in September 2013 and STCP did the same in December 2013.

Consequently, Banco Santander Totta extended each of the claims to include the unpaid amounts.

On 29 November 2013, the companies presented their defence in which they claimed that the swaps were null and void under Portuguese law and, accordingly, that they should be refunded the amounts paid.

On 14 February 2014, Banco Santander Totta answered the counterclaim, maintaining its arguments and rejecting the opposing arguments in its documents dated 29 November 2013.

On 4 April 2014 the companies issued their replies to the Bank's documents. The preliminary hearing took place on 16 May 2014. These proceedings are still in progress.

The Bank and its legal advisers consider that the Bank acted at all times in accordance with applicable legislation and under the terms of the swaps, and take the view that the UK courts will confirm the full validity and effectiveness of the swaps. The Group considers that the risk of loss arising as a result of these proceedings is remote and, accordingly, it has not recognised any provisions in connection with them.

The Bank and the other Group companies are subject to claims and, therefore, are party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of their business (including those in connection with lending activities, relationships with employees and other commercial or tax matters).

In this context, it must be considered that the outcome of court proceedings is uncertain, particularly in the case of claims for indeterminate amounts, those based on legal issues for which there are no precedents, those that affect a large number of parties or those at a very preliminary stage.

With the information available to it, the Group considers that at 30 June 2014, it had reliably estimated the obligations associated with each proceeding and had recognised, where necessary, sufficient provisions to cover reasonably any liabilities that may arise as a result of these tax and legal situations. It also believes that any liability arising from such claims and proceedings will not have, overall, a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial position or results of operations.

11.

Equity

In the six-month periods ended 30 June 2014 and 2013 there were no other quantitative or qualitative changes in the Group's equity other than those indicated in the consolidated statements of changes in total equity.

Issued capital

On 30 January 2014 and 29 April 2014, the bonus issue through which the Santander Dividendo Elección scrip dividend scheme is instrumented took place, whereby 227,646,659 and 217,013,477 shares (2.01% and 1.88% of the share capital) were issued, giving rise to bonus issues of EUR 114 million and EUR 108 million, respectively (BRL 374 million and BRL 339 million, respectively).

Following these transactions, at 30 June 2014, the Bank's share capital consisted of 11,778,080,624 shares with a total nominal value of EUR 5,889 million (BRL 13,782 million).

At 30 June 2014, most of the revaluation losses on available-for-sale financial assets recognised in the Group's equity related to Spanish government debt securities. There has not been any default on payments of interest nor was there any evidence that the issuers would fail to continue to meet their payment obligations in the future, with respect both to principal and interest, and thus prevent recovery of the carrying amount of such securities.

In the first half of 2014 the Group recognised EUR 23 million (BRL 72 million) in the income statement in relation to impairment on debt instruments and EUR 36 million (BRL 112 million) in relation to impairment of equity instruments.

Valuation adjustments - Hedges of net investments in foreign operations and Exchange differences

Valuation adjustments - Hedges of net investments in foreign operations includes the net amount of changes in the value of hedging instruments in hedges of net investments in foreign operations, for the portion of these changes considered as effective hedges.

Valuation adjustments - Exchange differences includes the net amount of exchange differences arising on non-monetary items whose fair value is adjusted against equity and the differences arising on the translation to euros of the balances of the consolidated entities whose functional currency is not the euro.

The net changes in both these items recognised in the statement of recognised income and expense in the first half of 2014 reflect the effect arising from the appreciation of foreign currencies, mainly the pound sterling and the Brazilian real. Of the change in the balance in the first half of 2014, a gain of approximately EUR 827 million related to the measurement of goodwill using the period-end exchange rate.

Valuation adjustments - Other valuation adjustments

The changes in the balance of Valuation adjustments - Actuarial gains (losses) on pension plans are shown in the statement of recognised income and expense and include the actuarial gains and losses generated in the period and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), less the administrative expenses and taxes inherent to the plan, and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in the net interest of the net defined benefit pension liability (asset).

The most significant changes in the first half of 2014 related to:

Increase of EUR 210 million (BRL 630 million) in the cumulative actuarial gains and losses relating to the Group's entities in Spain, due to the change in the main actuarial assumptions –a decrease in the discount rate from 3% to 2.5%-.

Decrease of EUR 187 million (BRL 561 million) in the cumulative actuarial gains and losses relating to the Group's businesses in the UK, due to the change in the main actuarial assumptions – a decrease in the CPI from 3.40% to 3.30% and a decrease in the discount rate from 4.45% to 4.3%.

12.	Segment information

In the first half of 2014 the Group made the following changes to its criteria for the management and presentation of its financial information by segment described in Note 52 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013:

Geographical areas: the United States geographical area now includes Santander Bank, Santander Consumer USA, which was accounted for by the equity method and is now fully consolidated, and Puerto Rico, which was previously included in Latin America.

Business: the name of the Asset management and insurance segment was changed to Private banking, asset management and insurance, and now includes the domestic private banking units in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Brazil, Mexico and Chile, where management is shared with the local banks. This segment also includes Santander Private Banking in Latin America.

The segment information for the first half of 2013 shown below has been recalculated using these criteria in order to make it comparable.

For Group management purposes, the primary level of segmentation, by geographical area, comprises five segments: four operating areas plus Corporate Activities. The operating areas, which include all the business activities carried on therein by the Group, are Continental Europe, the United Kingdom, Latin America and the United States, based on the location of the Group's assets.

Following is the breakdown of revenue by the geographical segments used by the Group.

In addition to the financial instruments measured at fair value shown in the foregoing table, at 30 June 2014, the Bank held equity instruments classified as available-for-sale financial assets and carried at cost amounting to EUR 972 million (BRL 2.915 million) (31 December 2013: EUR 461 million (BRL 1,502 million)).

Financial instruments at fair value, determined on the basis of published price quotations in active markets (Level 1), include government debt securities, private-sector debt securities, derivatives traded in organised markets, securitised assets, shares, short positions and fixed-income securities issued.

In cases where price quotations cannot be observed, management makes its best estimate of the price that the market would set, using its own internal models. In most cases, these internal models use data based on observable market parameters as significant inputs (Level 2) and, in very specific cases, they use significant inputs not observable in market data (Level 3). In order to make these estimates, various techniques are employed, including the extrapolation of observable market data. The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is the transaction price, unless the fair value of the instrument can be obtained from other market transactions performed with the same or similar instruments or can be measured by using a valuation technique in which the variables used include only observable market data, mainly interest rates.

The Group has developed a formal process for the systematic valuation and management of financial instruments, which has been implemented worldwide across all the Group's units. The governance scheme for this process distributes responsibilities between two independent divisions: Treasury (development, marketing and daily management of financial products and market data) and Risk (on a periodic basis, validation of pricing models and market data, computation of risk metrics, new transaction approval policies, management of market risk and implementation of fair value adjustment policies). The approval of new products follows a sequence of steps (request, development, validation, integration in corporate systems and quality assurance) before the product is brought into production. This process ensures that pricing systems have been properly reviewed and are stable before they are used.

The most important products and families of derivatives, and the related valuation techniques and inputs, by asset class, are detailed in the consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2013. These valuations include the calculation of the valuation adjustment for counterparty risk or default risk (the CVA and DVA recognised at 31 June 2014 totalled EUR 699 million and EUR 190 million, respectively (BRL 2,097 million and BRL 549 million, respectively).

Set forth below are the financial instruments at fair value whose measurement was based on internal models (Levels 2 and 3) at 30 June 2014 and 31 December 2013:

(a)	Includes mainly short-term loans and reverse repurchase agreements with corporate customers (mainly brokerage and investment companies).

(b)	Includes credit risk derivatives with a negative net fair value of EUR 23 million (BRL 69 million) recognised in the consolidated balance sheet. These assets and liabilities are measured using the Standard Gaussian Copula Model.

(c)

Includes home mortgage loans to financial institutions in the UK (which are regulated and partly financed by the Government). The fair value of these loans was obtained using observable market variables, including current market transactions with similar amounts and collateral facilitated by the UK Housing Association. Since the Government is involved in these financial institutions, the credit risk spreads have remained stable and are homogeneous in this sector. The results arising from the valuation model are checked against current market transactions.

Set forth below are the Group's main financial instruments measured using unobservable market data that constitute significant inputs of the internal models (Level 3):

Instruments (loans, debt instruments and derivatives) linked to the House Price Index (HPI) in Santander UK's portfolio. Even if the valuation techniques used for these instruments may be the same as those used to value similar products (present value in the case of loans and debt instruments, and the Black-Scholes model for derivatives), the main factors used in the valuation of these instruments are the HPI spot rate, the growth rate of that rate, its volatility and mortality rates, which are not always observable in the market and, accordingly, these instruments are considered illiquid.

The HPI spot rate: for some instruments the NSA HPI spot rate, which is directly observable and published on a monthly basis, is used. For other instruments where regional HPI rates must be used (published quarterly), adjustments are made to reflect the different composition of the rates and adapt them to the regional composition of Santander UK's portfolio.

HPI growth rate: this is not always directly observable in the market, especially for long maturities, and is estimated in accordance with existing quoted prices. To reflect the uncertainty implicit in these estimates, adjustments are made based on an analysis of the historical volatility of the HPI, incorporating reversion to the mean.

HPI volatility: the long-term volatility is not directly observable in the market but is estimated on the basis of more short-term quoted prices and by making an adjustment to reflect the existing uncertainty, based on the standard deviation of historical volatility over various time periods.

Mortality rates: these are based on published official tables and adjusted to reflect the composition of the customer portfolio for this type of product at Santander UK.

Illiquid CDOs and CLOs in the portfolio of the treasury unit in Madrid. These are measured by grouping together the securities by type of underlying (sector/country), payment hierarchy (prime, mezzanine, junior, etc.), and assuming forecast conditional prepayment rates (CPR) and default rates, adopting conservative criteria.

Unlisted equity securities (shares and investment funds). These are measured at the lower of acquisition cost and underlying carrying amount.

Trading derivatives on baskets of shares. These are measured using advanced local and stochastic volatility models, using Monte Carlo simulations; the main unobservable input is the correlation between the prices of the shares in each basket in question.

Callable interest rate trading derivatives (Bermudan-style options) where the main unobservable input is mean reversion of interest rates.

With respect to 2013 year-end the Group reclassified to Level 3 the interest-rate derivatives with periodic call options and options on baskets of listed shares. The reason for the reclassification was the greater significance in the fair value of the aforementioned financial instruments of the illiquidity in the inputs used (the parameter for reversal to the average of interests rates and the correlations between the underlyings, respectively). These products relate almost exclusively to derivatives transactions performed to serve our clients.

The table below shows the effect, at 30 June 2014, on the fair value of the main financial instruments classified as Level 3 of a reasonable change in the assumptions used in the valuation. This effect was determined by applying the probable valuation ranges of the main unobservable inputs detailed in the following table:

(*) ABR: Active Bank Rate. Average deposit interest rates (over 30, 90, 180 and 360 days) published by the Chilean Association of Banks and Financial Institutions (ABIF) in nominal currency (Chilean peso) and in real terms, adjusted for inflation (Unidad de Fomento - UF).

(**) There is a national HPI index in the UK and regional indexes. The HPI spot value is the weighted average of the indexes that correspond to the positions of each portfolio.

(***)Theoretical average value of the parameter. The change made for the favourable scenario is from 0.01% to 3%. The unfavourable scenario was not considered as there was no margin for downward movement from the parameter’s current level.

(a)

The exercise was conducted for the unobservable inputs described in the Main unobservable inputs column under probable scenarios. The range and weighted average value used are not shown because the aforementioned exercise was conducted jointly for various inputs or variants thereof, and it was not possible to break down the results separately by type of input.

(b)

The Group calculates the potential effect on the valuation of each of these instruments on a joint basis, irrespective of whether their individual valuation is positive (asset) or negative (liability), and the global effect associated with these financial instruments is broken down in the Other financial assets at fair value through profit or loss line included.
