Basis of Preparation Abstract | |
Basis of Preparation | 2. Basis of preparation 2.1 . Statement of compliance These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as published by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) (“IFRS-IASB”) . The Bank has adopted IF RS -IASB as of January 1, 2017 as its financial reporting basis of accounting. These are the Bank ’s first consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS -IASB . These consolidated financial statements have been approved by the Board of Director s of BBVA Banco Francés S.A. on May 8, 2019. 2.2 . Transition to IFRS -IASB - First-Time adoption of IFRS -IASB Until December 31, 2017 the Bank prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with rules prescribed or permitted by Argentina Central Bank (“BCRA GAAP”). The Bank followed the provisions of IFRS 1, “First Time Adoption of IFRS”, in preparing its consolidated statement of financial position as of the date of transition, January 1, 2017. Certain of the Bank’s IFRS -IASB accounting policies used for this opening consolidated statement of financial position differed from BCRA GAAP policies applied at the same date. The resulting adjustments arose from events and transactions before the date of transition to IFRS -IASB . Therefore, as required by IFRS 1, those adjustments were recognized directly through retained earnings (or another category of equity where appropriate) as of January 1, 2017. This is the effect of the general rule of IFRS 1 which is to apply IFRS -IASB retrospectively. There are some exceptions required and some exemptions permitted by IFRS 1. The Group applied the following exemptions allowed by IFRS 1: a ) Considered the fair value of its real estate as of January 1, 2017 as deemed cost at that date; b) Decided not to apply IFRS 3 retrospectively to past business combinations. The carrying amount of goodwill as of January 1, 2017 corresponds to the amount at that date in accordance with BCRA GAAP and; c) Decided to apply the requirements of IFRS 9 (issued in 2014) as from January 1, 2018. For comparative information, the Group has applied IAS 39. The impact of this change in accounting policy is explained in Note 2.3. - Effect of Transition to IFRS -IASB Below is a reconciliation of equity between BCRA G AAP and IFRS -IASB as of December 31, 2017 and January 1, 2017 as well as a reconciliation of profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2017: December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 EQUITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH BCRA GAAP 26,056,548 16,460,035 Adjustments due to implementation of IFRS-IASB Deemed cost of real estate (a) 4,889,491 4,960,575 Effective rate of loans (b) (316,269) (559,072) Financing facilities granted at a below-the-market interest rate (c) (213,540) - Fair value of government and private securities (d) (24,587) (31,439) Loan impairment methodology differences (e) 419,042 690,843 Fair value of derivatives (f) (37,337) (34,122) Equity method of investments in associates and joint ventures (g) 170,128 191,493 Assets and liabilities for contracts with customers (h) (131,840) (138,665) Goodwill (i) 360 - Deferred income tax (j) (513,082) (1,224,825) Financial guarantee contracts (k) (5,454) (3,425) Employee benefits (l) (1,562) (1,683) Uncertain tax positions (m) 1,185,800 - Others 666 1,203 Non-controlling interests (n) 298,126 267,737 SUBTOTAL 31,776,490 20,578,655 Inflation adjustment (o) 17,740,165 17,943,079 EQUITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH IFRS-IASB 49,516,655 38,521,734 Equity attributable to owners of the Bank 49,061,871 38,022,269 Non-controlling interests 454,784 499,465 Ref December 31, 2017 PROFIT OR LOSS IN ACCORDANCE WITH BCRA GAAP 3,878,265 Adjustments due to implementation of IFRS-IASB Depreciation of property (a) (71,084) Effective rate of loans (b) 242,803 Financing facilities granted at a below-the-market interest rate (c) (213,540) Fair value of government and private securities (d) 131,614 Loan impairment methodology differences (e) (271,801) Fair value of derivatives (f) (3,215) Equity method of investments in associates and joint ventures (g) (37,928) Assets and liabilities for contracts with customers (h) 6,825 Goodwill (i) 360 Deferred income tax (j) 554,741 Financial guarantee contracts (k) (2,029) Employee benefits (l) 121 Uncertain tax positions (m) 1,185,800 Others 125 Non-controlling interests (n) 30,389 SUBTOTAL 5,431,446 Inflation adjustment (o) (3,571,935) PROFIT OR LOSS IN ACCORDANCE WITH IFRS-IASB 1,859,511 a) The Group has applied the exem p tion of IFRS 1 by which fair value of its real estate as of January 1, 2017 is considered as deemed cost at that date.

Depreciation charge has increased as a result of deemed cost of real estate being higher than the cost in accordance with BCRA GAAP. (b) In accordance with IFRS -IASB , under the effective interest method, for financial assets and financial liabilities valued at amortized cost, t he Group identified commissions received (assets) and paid (liabilities) recognized in profit or loss upon origination in accordance with BCRA GAAP that are in fact an integral part of the interest rate. The Group recalculated the effective interest rate o f the related financial assets and liabilities considering these commissions . (c) Adjustments to measure the loans portfolio at fair value upon initial recognition, since these financing facilities are granted at a below market interest rate. The Bank of fers through marketing activities short-term loans at a below market interest rate, primarily to credit card holders. (d) Adjustments correspond to debt securities that were measured at cost plus interest accrued using the instruments’ interest rate of return in accordance with BCRA GAAP and which are measured at fair value in accordance with IAS 39. (e) Impairment was determined in accordance with BCRA GAAP, which establishes minimum allowance rates based on the Argentine Central Bank (“BCRA”) rating system. In accordance with IAS 39 , the Bank assess ed whether there is objective evidence of impairment and measured impairment as described in Note 5.4.c). (f) Adjustment to measure derivative instruments at fair value through profit or loss. In accordance with BCRA GAAP, forwards were measured considering the difference between contractual and forward exchange rates. No present value was determined. Swaps were measured considering the estimated cash flows based on the contractual and prevaili ng interest rate. No present value was determined. (g) Adjustment related to IFRS -IASB adoption in associates and joint ventures. (h) Pursuant to IFRS 15, income from contracts with customers is accrued as the Group satisfies the performance obligation s.

Under BCRA GAAP these fees were recognized in profit or loss on the date they were billed. (i) Pursuant to BCRA GAAP , goodwill generated by business combinations was measured at cost less accumulated amortizations calculated in proporti on to the estimated useful life . The Group measures goodwill at the accounting balance at the transition date (see Note 5.9). Consequent ly, this adjustment shows the reversal of the amortization recognized in 2017 under BCRA GAAP.

(c) It mainly corresponds to a different classification of cash flows related to dividends collected from subsidiarie s and bank loans. 2.3 . Changes in accounting policies - Adoption of IFRS 9 As mentioned in the Note 5.4.b) , IFRS 9 replaced IAS 39 for financial statements from January 1, 2018 onwards . The main changes between these two standards relate to the classification of financial assets , the introduction of the expected credit loss model to determine impairment of financial assets. The application of t his standard on January 1, 2018, had a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Bank at that date. The Group reassessed the classification of its financial assets and liabilities and concluded that: Loans and receivables: all instruments under this classification under IAS 39 fulfil the requirements of IFRS 9 to be classified as financial assets at amortized cost. Held-to-maturity: all instruments under this classification under IAS 39 fulfil the requirements of IFRS 9 to be classified as financial assets at amortized cost. Available-for-sale: all instruments under this classifica tion under IAS 39 fulfil the requirements of IFRS 9 to be classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. At fair value through profit and loss: remains unchanged. However, regarding impairment, the Group has determined in accordance with IFRS 9, that the allowance for loan losses and provision for financial guarantees and loan commitments are 1,036,297 higher than the allowance determined in accordance with IAS 39 and the provision under IAS 37 as of January 1, 2018. The pe rtinent adjustment, net of the related income tax effect of 310,889, has been recorded in Equity, in the line Retained earnings. Comparative information was not restated. |

Functional and Presentation Currency Abstract | |
Functional and Presentation Currency | 3. Functional and presentation currency and unit of account 3.1 . Functional and presentation currency The Argentine Peso i s the functional and presentation currency of the Bank and its subsidiaries. All amounts are stated in thousands of Argentine pesos, unless otherwise stated. 3.2 . Unit of account IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies requires an entity whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy, to state the assets, liabilities, income and expenses in terms of the measuring unit current at the reporting period. An economy is considered to be a hyperinflationary economy when, among other criteria, it has cumulative inflation of approximately 100% or more over a 3-year period. The Bank ’s management took into account the increase in the levels of inflation suffered by the Argentine economy in the first months of 2018, applied the parameters established by IAS 29 and agreed with the consensus reached among local and international accounting standards that the Argentine economy should be considered as hyperinflationary. Consequently, IAS 29 has been applied to financial information prepared as from July 1, 2018. Additionally, the Bank ’s management agreed with the b asis for conclusions and consequently followed the guidance issued by Argentine accounting standards setters by which the “general price index” for IAS 29 purposes is determined considering the Wholesale price index (WPI) through December 31, 2016 and the Consumer price index (CPI) beginning on January 1, 2017 and onwards. These indexes are published by the National Institute of Statistics and Census (INDEC). The general price index has increased 47.65% during 2018 and 24.80% during 2017. Under IAS 29 asset s and liabilities not already expressed in terms of the measuring unit current at the end of the reporting period are adjusted by applying a g eneral price index. The adjusted amount of a non-monetary item is reduced, in accordance with IFRS-IASB , when it e xceeds its recoverable amount. The impact of implementation of IAS 29 at the beginning of the first period of application is recognized in equity. All items in the statement of comprehensive income are expressed in terms of the measuring unit current at th e end of the reporting period. The gain or loss on the net monetary position is included in the Consolidated Statement of profit or loss . Since the Bank prepares its financial information based on a historical cost approach, it has applied IAS 29 as follow s: Restated the Consolidated statement of financial position as of January 1, 2017, which is the earliest financial information presented. Restated the Consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2017. Restated the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and Consolidated statements of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2017, including the calculation and sepa rate disclosure of the gain or loss on the net monetary position. Adjusted the Consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2018. Adjusted the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and Consolidated statements of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2018, including the calculation and separate disclosure of the gain or loss on the net monetary position. In order to app ly IAS 29 to the Consolidated statement of financial position , the Bank has applied the following methodology and criteria: Non-monetary items ha ve been restated by applying the general price index. The restated amount s ha ve been reduced to their recoverable value by applying the pertinent IFRS, if necessary. Monetary items ha ve not been restated. Assets and liabilities linked by agreement to changes in prices, such as index linked bonds and loans, have been measured in accordance with the perti nent agreement. The measurement of Investments accounted for under the equity method, have been determined based on financial information of the associate s and joint ventures prepared in accordance with IAS 29. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities ha ve been recalculated based on the restated amounts. As of January 1, 2017 all equity components, except retained earnings, have been restated by applying the general price index from the dates the components were contributed or otherwise arose. In subseque nt periods, all equity components have been restated by applying the general price index from the beginning of the period or the date of contribution, if later. In order to apply IAS 29 to the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, the Consolidated sta tement of c omprehensive i ncome and the Consolidated statement of cash flows , the Bank has been applied the following methodology and criteria: All items in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, Consolidated statement of c omprehensive i ncome and Con solidated statement of cash flows have been expressed in terms of the measuring unit current at December 31, 2018. The gain or loss on the net monetary position is included in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss . The gain or loss generated by ca sh and cash equivalents is presented in the Consolidated statement of cash flows separately from cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a specific item in the reconciliation between cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and a t the end of the period. Below is a summary of the main adjustments in the application of IAS 29: December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Equity before inflation adjustment (Note 2.2) 31,776,490 20,578,655 Impact of IAS 29 adoption: · Increase in Non-monetary assets (tangible assets, intangible assets and non-current assets held for sale) 2,486,482 504,728 · Increase Deferred income tax (725,461) (176,654) Total impact of IAS 29 adoption 1,761,021 328,074 Equity in terms of the measuring unit current at December 31, 2017 / January 1, 2017 33,537,511 20,906,729 Adjustment of mesuring unit 15,979,144 17,615,005 Equity in terms of the measuring unit current at December 31, 2018 49,516,655 38,521,734 December 31, 2017 Profit before inflation adjustment (Note 2.2) 5,431,446 Impact of IAS 29 adoption: · Increase in Non-monetary assets (tangible assets, intangible assets and non-current assets held for sale) 1,981,754 · Increase Deferred income tax (548,807) · Loss on net monetary position (5,604,951) Total impact of IAS 29 adoption (4,172,004) Profit or loss at in terms of the measuring unit current at December 31, 2017 1,259,442 Adjustment of mesuring unit 600,069 Profit in terms of the measuring unit current at December 31, 2018 1,859,511 |

The related estimates and assumptions are based on expectations and other factors deemed reasonable, the result of which are the basis for the judgments on the value of assets a nd liabilities, which are not easily obtained from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The underlying estimates and assumptions are continuously under review. The effect of the review of accounting estimates is recognized prospec tively. 4.1 . Judgments Information about judgments made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is described in Note 3 “ Functional and presentation currency a nd unit of account ” and Note 5 “Significant accounting policies” in the following titles: Note 3.2. – “Unit of account” Note 5.1. – Determination of the “Basis of consolidation” regarding the existence of control over other entities Note 5.4.b) – “Classification of financial assets” Note 5.4.b ) – “Impairment of financial assets” 4.2 . Assumptions and estimation uncertainties Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in these consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes: Note 12 – “ Me a surement of expected credit losses” regarding the impairment of financial assets Note 16 – “Income tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities”, regarding availabi lity of future taxable profit against which deferred tax assets and the effect of the final resolution of uncertain tax positions. Note 25 – “Provisions”, regarding the likelihood , timing and amount of outflow of resources. Note 41 b.3 – “Valuation techniques for Levels 2 and 3” . 4.3 . F air value measurement Fair value is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measu rement date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk. When available, the Group measures the fair value of a financial instrument using the quoted price in an active market. A market is considered active if transactions take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. If there is n o quoted price in an active market, then the Group uses valuation techniques maximizing the use of relevant market inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The selection of a valuation technique considers all factors market participants would t ake into consideration for the purposes of setting the price of the transaction . Fair values are categorized into different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on the input data used in the measurement techniques, as follows: Level 1: quoted prices i n active markets ( unadjusted ) for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: fair value estimated with observable market inputs. Level 3: inputs that are unobservable. The Bank recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. |

Significant Accounting Policies Abstract | |
Significant Accounting Policies | 5. Significant accounting policies Except as described in Note 2.3. for the adoption of IFRS 9 as of January 1, 2018, the Group has consistently applied the following accounting policies in all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements and in the preparation of the Statement of financial position as of January 1, 2017 for the purposes of the transition to IFRS-I ASB. 5.1. Basis of consolidation a) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities, if any) controlled by the Bank. The Bank controls an entity if it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with th e entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The Bank reassesses whether it has control if there are changes to one or more of the elements of control. The financial statements of subsidiaries are fully consolida ted with those of the Bank from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases. b) Non-controlling interests Non-controlling interests are the proportionate share of income and shareholders’ equity of the subsidiaries, which do not belong to the Bank and are included as a separate line in the Consolidated Statements of profit or loss, of Comprehensive Income, of Financial Position and of changes in shareholders’ equity. c) Trusts The Bank acts as trustee for a number of trusts. T he Bank considers the purpose and design of the trust so as to identify its relevant activities, how decisions about such activities are made, who has the current ability to direct those activities, and who receives returns therefrom. In case the Bank has decision-making power over the trust, determines whether it acts as a principal or as an agent of a third party. The Bank has concluded that it does not have control over any of these trusts. d) Investment funds A subsidiary of the Bank acts as fund manage r to a number of investment funds. Determining whether the Bank controls such an investment fund usually focuses on the assessment of the aggregate economic interests of the Bank in the fund (comprising any carried interests and expected management fees) a nd considers that investors have no right to remove the fund manager without cause. In cases where the economic interest share is less than 37%, the Bank concludes its subsidiary acts as an agent for the investors and therefore does not consolidate those f unds. e) Loss of control When the Bank loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any related non-controlling interest and other components of equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Any interest retained in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost. f) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-Group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-Group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. 5.2. Foreign currency Transactions in foreign currencies are translate d into the respective functional currency of Bank entities at the spot exchange rates published by the BCRA at the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at th e spot exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the spot exchange rate at the date on which the fair value is determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the spot exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences arising from translation are recognized in profit or loss. 5.3. Ca sh and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and bank deposits, balances with central banks and balances with no restrictions kept with the BCRA and on-demand accounts held at financial institutions that are subject to an insignificant r isk of changes in their fair value and are used by the Bank in the management of its short-term commitments. 5.4. Financial assets and liabilities a) Recognition The Bank initially recognizes loans, deposits, debt securities issued and liabilities on the date on which they are originated. All other financial instruments (including ordinary course purchases and sales of financial assets) are recognized on the trade date, which is the date when the Bank becomes party to the contractual provisions of the inst rument. The Bank recognizes purchases of financial instruments with the commitment to resell at a certain price as a loan granted in the line “Reverse repurchase agreements” in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The difference between the pu rchase and sale prices of those instruments is recorded as interest accrued during the term of the transactions using the effective interest method. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Instruments not measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) are recognized at fair value plus (in the case of assets) or less (in the case of liabilities) the transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset or the issuance of the liability. The transaction price is usually the best evidence of fair value for initial recognition. However, if the Bank determines that the fair value at initial recognition is different than the consideration received or paid, when the fair value is in hierarchies 1 or 2, the financial instrument is initially recognized at fair value and the difference is recognized in profit or loss. If the fair value at initial recognition is hierarchy 3, the difference between the fair value and the consideration is deferred in the term of the instrument. b) Policy applicable from January 1, 2018 Classification of financial assets On initial recognition, financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost, fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions: The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and T he contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”) on the principal amount outstanding. A debt instrument is measured at FVOCI only if it meets both of the following conditions an d is not designated as at FVTPL: The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI on the principal amount outstanding. On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Bank may elect to, for each individual instrument, present subsequent changes in fair value in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). All other financial assets are classified as measured at FVTPL. This category includes derivative financial instruments. Classification of financial liabilities The Bank classifies its financial liabilities, other than derivatives, financial guarantees a nd li abilities at fair value through profit or loss as measured at amortized cost . Financial liabilities held for trading and derivative financial instruments are measured at FVTPL. ‘Financial guarantees’ are contracts that require the Bank to make specified pa yments to reimburse the holder for a loss that it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when it is due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantees issued are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently are measured at the higher of this amortized amount and the present value of any expected payment to settle the liability when a payment under the contract has become probable. Business model assessment The Bank makes an assessment of the objective of a b usiness model in which an asset is held at a portfolio level because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes: The stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice, How the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Bank’s management, The risks that affect the performance of the business model and how those risks are managed, How managers of the business are compensated – e.g. whether compensation is based on the fair value of the assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected; and The frequency, volume and timing of sales in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and its expectations about fut ure sales activity. However, information about sales activity is not considered in isolation, but as part of an overall assessment of how the Bank’s stated objective for managing the financial assets is achieved and how cash flows are realized. Financial a ssets that are held for trading or managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL because they are neither held to collect contractual cash flows nor held both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell financial assets. Assessment of whether contractual cash flows are SPPI For the purpose of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money an d for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs as well as profit margin. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making the assessment, the Bank considers: Contingent events that would change the amount and timing of cash flows; Leverage features; Prepayment and extension terms; Terms that’s limit the Bank´s claim to cash flows from specified assets; and Features that modify consideration of the time value of money (e.g. periodical reset of interest rate). Reclassification Financial assets are not r eclassified after their initial recognition, except for a change in the Bank's business models. Measurement at amortized cost The amortized cost of a financial asset or liability is the amount of its initial recognition less the capital reimbursements, p lus or less the amortization, using the effective interest method, of any difference between the initial amount and the amount at maturity. In the case of financial assets, it also includes any impairment. Modifications of financial assets and financial li abilities i) Financial assets If the terms of a financial asset are modified, then the Bank evaluates whether the cash flows of the modified asset are substantially different. If the cash flows are substantially different, then the contractual rights to ca sh flows from the original financial asset are deemed to have expired. In this case, the original financial asset is derecognised and a new financial asset is recognised at fair value plus any eligible transaction costs. Any fees received as part of the mo dification are accounted for as follows: Fees that are considered in determining the fair value of the new asset and fees that represent reimbursement of eligible transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the asset; and Other fees are included in profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on derecognition. If cash flows are modified when the borrower is in financial difficulties, then the objective of the modification is usually to maximise recovery of the original contractual terms ra ther than to originate a new asset with substantially different terms. If the Bank plans to modify a financial asset in a way that would result in forgiveness of cash flows, then it first considers whether a portion of the asset should be written off befor e the modification takes place. This approach impacts the result of the quantitative evaluation and the derecognition criteria are not usually met in such cases. If the modification of a financial asset measured at amortised cost or FVOCI does not result i n derecognition of the financial asset, then the Bank first recalculates the gross carrying amount of the financial asset using the original effective interest rate of the asset and recognises the resulting adjustment as a modification gain or loss in prof it or loss. For floating-rate financial assets, the original effective interest rate used to calculate the modification gain or loss is adjusted to reflect current market terms at the time of the modification. Any costs or fees incurred and fees received a s part of the modification adjust the gross carrying amount of the modified financial asset and are amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial asset. If such a modification is carried out because of financial difficulties of the borrower, then the gain or loss is presented together with impairment losses. In other cases, it is presented as interest income calculated using the effective interest rate method. ii) Financial liabilities The Bank derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability d erecognised and consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss. Consideration paid includes non-financial assets transferred, if any, and the assumption of liabilities, including the new modified financial liability. If the modification of a financial liability is not accounted for as derecognition, then the amortised cost of the liability is recalculated by discounting the modified cash flows at the original effective interest rate and the resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. For flo ating-rate financial liabilities, the original effective interest rate used to calculate the modification gain or loss is adjusted to reflect current market terms at the time of the modification. Any costs and fees incurred are recognised as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the liability and amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial liability by re-computing the effective interest rate on the instrument. Impairment of financial assets The IFRS 9 impairment model is applied to financial assets valued at amortized cost and to financial assets valued at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income, except for investments in equity instruments. Likewise, all the financial instruments valued at fair value with ch ange through profit and loss are excluded from the impairment model. The new standard classifies financial instruments into three categories, which depend on the evolution of their credit risk from the moment of initial recognition. The first category incl udes the transactions initially recognized, with no significant increase in credit risk and not impaired (Stage 1); the second comprises the financial assets for which a significant increase in credit risk has been identified since its initial recognition (Stage 2) and the third one, the impaired financial assets (Stage 3). The calculation of the allowances for credit risk in each of these three categories are done differently. In this way, expected loss up to 12 months for the financial assets classified i n the first of the aforementioned categories are recorded, while expected losses estimated for the remaining life of the financial assets classified in the other two categories are recorded. Thus, IFRS 9 differentiates between the following concepts of exp ected loss: Expected loss at 12 months: expected credit loss that arises from possible default events within 12 months following the presentation date of the financial statements; and Expected loss during the life of the transaction: this is the expecte d credit loss that arises from all possible default events over the remaining life of the financial instrument. All this requires considerable judgment, both in the modeling for the estimation of the expected losses and in the forecasts, on how the economi c factors affect such losses, which must be carried out on a weighted probability basis. The Bank has applied the following definitions in accordance with IFRS 9: Default BBVA Francés has applied a definition of default for financial instruments that is c onsistent with that used in internal credit risk management, as well as the indicators under applicable regulation at the date of implementation of IFRS 9. Both qualitative and quantitative indicators have been considered. In accordance with IFRS 9, the 90 -day past-due stipulation may be waived in cases where the Bank considers it appropriate, based on reasonable and documented information that it is appropriate to use a longer term. As of December 31, 2018, the Bank has not considered periods superior to 9 0 days for any of the significant portfolios. Credit impaired asset An asset is credit-impaired according to IFRS 9 if one or more events have occurred and they have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. Evidence that a fin ancial asset is credit-impaired includes observable data about the following events: Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower. A breach of contract (e.g. a default or past due event). A lender having granted a concession to the borrow er – for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty – that the lender would not otherwise consider. It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization. It may not be possible to identify a single discrete event. Instead, the combined effect of several events may cause financial assets to become credit-impaired. The definition of impaired financial assets in the Bank is aligned with the definition of default explained in the abo ve paragraphs. Significant increase in credit risk The objective of the impairment requirements is to recognize lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments for which there have been significant increases in credit risk since initial recognit ion considering all reasonable and supportable information, including that which is forward-looking. The model developed by the Bank for assessing the significant increase in credit risk has a two-prong approach: Quantitative criterion: the Bank uses a quantitative analysis based on comparing the current expected probability of default over the life of the transaction with the original adjusted expected probability of default, so that both values are comparable in terms of expected default probability for their residual life. The thresholds used for considering a significant increase in risk take into account special cases according to geographic areas and portfolios. Depending on how old current operations are, at the time implementation of the standard, some simplification has been made to compare the probabilities of default between the current and the original moment, based on the best information available at that moment. Qualitative criterion: most indicators f or detecting significant risk increase are included in the Bank's systems through rating/scoring systems or macroeconomic scenarios, so quantitative analysis covers the majority of circumstances. The Bank will use additional qualitative criteria when it co nsiders it necessary to include circumstances that are not reflected in the rating/score systems or macroeconomic scenarios used. Additionally, instruments under one of the following main circumstances are considered Stage 2 (Qualitative criterion): More than 30 days past due. According to IFRS 9, default of more than 30 days is a presumption that can be rebutted in those cases in which the Bank considers, based on reasonable and documented information, that such non-payment does not represent a significan t increase in risk. The Bank has not considered periods superior to 30 days for any of the significant portfolios. Watch list: They are subject to special watch by the Risks units because they show negative signs in their credit quality, even though there may be no objective evidence of impairment. Refinance or restructuring that does not show evidence of impairment. Thus the classification of financial instruments subject to impairment under IFRS 9 is as follows: – Stage 1– without significant increase in credit risk Financial assets which are not considered to have significantly increased in credit risk since its initial recognition, have the allowances for loan losses measured at an amount equal to 12 months expected credit losses (ECL). – Stage 2– signi ficant increases in credit risk When there is a significant increase in credit risk, the financial asset is transferred to this category in which the allowance for loan losses is calculated as the ECL during the entire life of the asset. – Stage 3 – Impaired When there is objective evidence that the instrument is credit impaired, the financial asset is transferred to this category in which the allowances for losses of that financial instrument is calculated as the expected credit loss during the entir e life of the asset. Method for calculating ECL under IFRS 9 In accordance with IFRS 9, the measurement of ECL must reflect: A considered and unbiased amount, determined by evaluating a range of possible results. The time value of money. Reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort and that reflects current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Bank measures the ECL both individually and collectively. The purpose of the Bank's individual measurement is to estimate expected losses for significant impaired instruments. In these cases, the amount of credit losses is calculated as the difference between expected discounted cash flows at the effective interest rate of the tran saction and the carrying amount of the instrument. To establish which and how many clients need to be analyzed individually, the Bank adopts the criteria defined by the BBVA Group, which is a relative weight in terms of total risk over the defaulted total risk of wholesale exposure and in term of total risk over the Watch List total risk of wholesale exposure. In addition to that calculation, an expert adjustment has been made downwards of these thresholds. The scope for individual analysis is defined with the following criteria to analyze all clients with at least an asset in default and with total risk above the local threshold (Ps. 3,000,000) or with at least an asset in Watch List (WL) with total risk above the local threshold (Ps. 5,000,000), meaning: a) Stage 3 and Total Risk > Ps. 3,000,000; b) Stage 2, WL and Total Risk > Ps. 5,000,000 Threshold for Defaulted exposure : The threshold is established in such a way that the clients with total risk above this threshold are assessed individually for at least 40% of the total risk of the defaulted wholesale portfolio. Threshold for Watch List exposure : The threshold is established in such a way that the clients with total risk above this threshold are assessed individually for at least 20% of the total ri sk of the Watch List wholesale portfolio. For the collective measurement of expected losses the instruments are grouped into groups of assets based on their risk characteristics. Exposure within each group is segmented according to the common credit risk c haracteristics, which are indicative of the payment capacity of the borrower in accordance with their contractual conditions. These risk characteristics have to be relevant in estimating the future flows of each group. The characteristics of credit risk ma y consider, among others, the following factors: Type of instrument. Rating or scoring tools. Type of collateral. Period of time at default for stage 3. Segment. Qualitative criteria which can have a significant increase in risk. ECL are derived from the following parameters: PD: estimate of the probability of default in each period. EAD: estimate of the exposure in case of default at each future period, taking into account the changes in exposure after the presentation date of the financial statements. L GD: estimate of the loss in case of default, calculated as the difference between the contractual cash flows and receivables, including guarantees. In the case of debt securities, the LDP (Low Default Portfolio) methodology that is used has parameters based on external ratings. Use of present, past and future information IFRS 9 requires incorporation of present, past and future information to detect any significant increase in risk and measure the expected loss. The standard does not require identificat ion of all possible scenarios for measuring expected loss. However, the probability of a loss event occurring and the probability it will not occur will also have to be considered, even though the possibility of a loss may be very small. Also, when there i s no linear relation between the different future economic scenarios and their associated expected losses, more than one future economic scenario must be used for the measurement. The approach used by the Bank consists of using first the most probable sce nario (baseline scenario) consistent with that used in the Bank's internal management processes, and then applying an additional adjustment, calculated by considering the weighted average of expected losses in other economic scenarios (one more positive an d the other more negative). The main macroeconomic variable in each of the scenarios is Gross Domestic Product. c) Policy applicable before January 1, 2018 Classification of financial assets The Bank classified its financial assets into one of the following categories: Loan and receivables; Held-to-maturity: Available-for-sale; and At FVTPL, and within this category as: a) held-for-trading or b) designed as at FVTPL. Classification of financial liabi lities The Bank classified its financial liabilities, other than derivatives, financial guarantees and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss as measured at amortized cost. Modifications of financial assets and financial liabilities a) Financial assets If the terms of a financial asset were modified, then the Bank evaluated whether the cash flows of the modified asset were substantially different. If the cash flows were substantially different, then the contractual rights to cash flows from the or iginal financial asset were deemed to have expired. In this case, the original financial asset was derecognised and a new financial asset was recognised at fair value. If the terms of a financial asset were modified because of financial difficulties of th e borrower and the asset was not derecognised, then impairment of the asset was measured using the pre-modification interest rate. b) Financial liabilities The Bank derecognised a financial liability when its terms were modified and the cash flows of the m odified liability were substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms was recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and consideration paid was recognised in profit or loss. Consideration paid included non-financial assets transferred, if any, and the assumption of liabilities, including the new modified financial liability. If the modification of a financial liability was not accounted for as derecognition, then any costs and fees incurred were recognised as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the liability and amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial liability by re-computing the effective interest rate on the instrument . Impairment of financial assets A financial asset was considered impaired – and therefore its carrying amount was adjusted to reflect the effect of impairment – when there were objective evidence that events have occurred, which: In the case of debt instr uments (loans and accounts receivable and debt securities), reduced the future cash flows that were estimated at the time the instruments when initially recognized. So they were considered impaired when there were reasonable doubts that the carrying amount s would be recovered in full and/or the related interest would be collected for the amounts and on the dates initially agreed. In the case of equity instruments, it meant that their carrying amount may not be fully recovered. As a general rule, the carryin g amount of impaired financial assets was adjusted with a charge to the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year in which the impairment become known. The recoveries of previously recognized impairment losses were reflected, if appropriate, in the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year in which the impairment was reversed or reduced, with an exception: any recovery of previously recognized impairment losses for an investment in an equity instrument classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income was not recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, but under the heading "Other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - financial assets at fair value throu gh other comprehensive income " in the Consolidated statement of other comprehensive income. In general, amounts collected on impaired loans and receivables were used to recognize the related accrued interest and any excess amount was used to reduce the un paid principal. When the recovery of any recognized amount was considered remote, such amount was written-off on the consolidated statement of financial position, without prejudice to any actions that may be taken in order to collect the amount until the rights extinguish in full either because it was time-barred debt, the debt was forgiven, or other reasons. Method for calculating the impairment on financial assets under IAS 39 The impairment on financial assets was determined by type of instrument and other circumstances that could affect it, taking into account the guarantees received to assure (in part or in full) the performance of the financial assets. Impairment of debt instruments measured at amortized cost T he Bank developed policies, methods and procedures to estimate incurred losses on outstanding credit risk. These policies, methods and procedures applied in the due diligence, approval and execution of debt instruments and commitments and guarantees given; as well as in identifying the impairment and, where appropriate, in calculating the amounts necessary to cover estimated losses. The amount of impairment losses on debt instruments measured at amortized cost was calculated based on whether the impairment losses are determined individually or collectively. First it was determined whether there was objective evidence of impairment individually for individually significant debt instrument, and collectively for debt instrument that were not individually signif icant. If the Bank determined that there were no objective evidence of impairment, the assets were classified in groups of debt instrument based on similar risk characteristics and impairment was assessed collectively. In determining whether there is objec tive evidence of impairment the Bank used observable data in the following aspects: Significant financial difficulties of the obligors. Ongoing delays in the payment of interest or principal. Refinancing of credit due to financial difficulties by the count erparty. Bankruptcy or reorganization / liquidation are considered likely. Disappearance of the active market for a financial asset because of financial difficulties. Observable data indicating a reduction in future cash flows from the initial recognition such as adverse changes in the payment status of the counterparty (delays in payments, reaching credit cards limits, etc.). National or local economic conditions that are linked to "defaults" in the financial assets (unemployment rate, falling property pri ces, etc.).

Earnings Per Share Abstract | |
Disclosure of Earnings Per Share | 6. Earnings per share The Bank presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“ EPS ”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss that is attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Bank by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by ad justing the profit or loss that is attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares . The calculation of the earnings per share is detailed below: Accounts December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Numerator: (Loss) Profit attributable to owners of the Bank (1,489,732) 1,903,820 (Loss) Profit attributable to owners of the Bank adjusted to reflect the effect of dilution (1,489,732) 1,903,820 Denominator: Weighted average of outstanding ordinary shares for the year 612,659,638 569,909,668 Weighted average of outstanding ordinary shares for the year adjusted to reflect the effect of dilution 612,659,638 569,909,668 Basic (losses) earnings per share (1) (2.4316) 3.3406 Diluted (losses) earnings per share (1) (2.4316) 3.3406 (1) . Since BBVA Banco Francés S.A. has not issued financial instruments with a dilutive effect on earnings per share, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same. |

IFRS Issued but not yet Effective Abstract | |
IFRS Issued but not yet Effective | 7. IFRS issued but not yet effective A number of new standar d s and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2019 and early application is permitted. However , except for IFRIC 23, the Bank has not early adopted them in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Of those standa r ds that are not yet effective, the following new standards and amendments are expected to have a significant impact on the Bank ’s consolidated financial statements in the period of initial application. IFRS 16 - "Leases" On January 13, 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 which will replace IAS 17 “Leases” for financial statements from January 1, 2019 onwards. The new standard introduces a single lessee accounting model and will require a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases. The only exceptions are short-term contracts and those in which the underlying assets have low value. A lessee will be required to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. In relation to lessor accounting, IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor will continue to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and account for those two types of leases differently. The Group has carried out a project to implement IFRS 16 with the participation of all affected areas. The standard will mainly affect the accounting of operating leases of the Group . With regard to the estimated impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements at the transition date, the Group has decided to apply the modified retrospective method that consists of recognizing lease liabilities for an amount equivalent to the present value of the future payments committed as of January 1, 2019 As a r esult of this approach, the Group expects to recognize assets for right of use and lease liabilities for an approximate amount of 1,857 million pesos, mainly from office leases in its branch network . The impacts of adopting the standard as of January 1, 2019 may change because: The Group has not co mpleted all the tests; and The new accounting policies, methodologies and parameters may be subject to modifications until the Group presents its first financial statements that include the definitive impact at the date of initial application. IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty about treatment of income tax The Interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements of IAS 12 when there is uncertainty about the treatment of income taxes. If the Group considers that the tax authority is likely to accept uncertain tax treatment, the In terpretation requires the Group to determine the fiscal profit (tax loss), the tax bases, the unused fiscal losses, the tax credits not used or the tax rates taxes consistent with the tax treatment used or that the Group plan s to use in its income tax return. If the Group considers that the tax authority is not likely to accept uncertain tax treatment, the Interpretation requires the Group to use the most probable amount or expected value (sum of possible amounts, weighted by probability) to determine fiscal gain ( fiscal loss), tax bases, unused fiscal losses, tax credits not used or tax rates. The method used should be the method that the Group expects to provide the best prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty. Although t he interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2019, the Group has deci ded to early adopt this Interpretation . |

Measurement Expected Credit Loss Abstract | |
Disclosure of Measurement ExpectedCredit Loss | 12. Measurement of Expected Credit Loss (ECL) IFRS 9 requires determining the expected credit loss of a financial instrument in a way that reflects an unbiased estimation removing any conservatism or optimism, the time value of money and a forward looking perspective (including the economic forecast). Therefore the recognition and measurement of expected credit losses (ECL) is highly complex and involves the use of significant analysis and estimation including formulation and incorporation of forward-looking economic conditions into ECL. Risk Parameters Adjusted by Macroeconomic Scenarios ECL must include forward-looking macroeconomic information. The Bank uses the classical credit risk parameters PD, LGD and EAD in order to calculate the ECL for the credit portfolios. The Bank ´s methodological approach in order to incorporate the forward looking information aims to determine the relation between macroeconomic variables and risk parameters following three main steps: Step 1: Analysis and transformation of time series data. Step 2: For each dependent variable find conditional forecasting models that are economically consistent. Step 3: Select the best conditional forecasting model from the set of candidates defined in Step 2, based on their out of sample forecasting performance. How economic scenarios are reflected in calculation of ECL The forward looking component is added through the introduction of macroeconomic scenarios as an input. Inputs would highly depend on the parti cular combination of portfolio, so inputs are adapted to available data. Based on economic theory and analysis, the macroeconomic variables most directly relevant for explaining and forecasting the sel ected risk parameters are: The net income of families, corporates or public administrations. The payment amounts on the principal and interest on the outstanding loans. The Bank approximates these variables by using a proxy indicator from the set included in the macroeconomic scenarios provided by the economic research department. Only a single specific indicator for each of the two variables can be used and only core macroeconomic indicators should be chosen as first choice: for a) using Real GDP Growth can be seen as the single sufficient “factor” required for capturing the influence of all potentially relevant macro-financial scenario on internal PDs ; for b) using the most representative short term interest rate or exchang e rates expressed in real terms. Real GDP growth is given priority over any other indicator not only because it is the most comprehensive indicator of income and economic activity but also because it is the central variable in the generation of macroeconomic scenarios. Multiple scenario approach under IFRS 9 IFRS 9 requires calculating an unbiased probability weighted measurement of ECL by evaluating a range of possible outcomes, including forecasts of future economic conditions. The BBVA Research team produce s forecasts of the macroeconomic variables under the baseline scenario, which are used in the rest of the related processes of the bank, such as budgeting, the internal capital adequacy assessment process ( ICAAP ) and risk appetite framework, stress testing, etc. Additionally, the BBVA Res earch team produces alternative scenarios to the baseline scenario so as to meet the requirements under the IFRS 9 standard. Alternative macroeconomic scenarios For each of the macro-financial variables (GDP or interest rate or exchange rate) , BBVA Research produces three scenarios. Each of these scenarios corresponds to the expected value of a different area of the probabilistic distribution of the possible projections of the economic variables. The approach of the Bank consists of using the scenario that is the most likely scenario, which is the baseline scenario, consistent with the rest of inter nal processes (ICAAP, Budgeting ) and then applying an upside and downside scenarios by taking into account the weighted average of the ECL determined by each of the scenarios. It is important to note that in general, it is expected that the effect of the overlay is to increase the ECL. It is possible to obtain an overlay that does not have that effect, whenever the relationship between macro scenarios and losses is linear. However, the overlay is not expected to reduce the ECL. |

Refinancing and Restructuring Operations Abstract | |
Disclosure of Refinancing and Restructuring Operations | 14. Refinancing and restructuring operations Policies and principles with respect to refinancing and restructuring operations Refinancing and restructuring transactions are carried out with customers who have requested such an operation in order to meet their current loan payments if they are expected, or may be expected, to experience financial difficulty in making the payments in the future. The basic aim of a refinancing and restructuring operation is to provide the customer with a situation of financial viability over time by adapting repayment of the loan incurred with the Group to the customer’s new situation of fund generation. The use of refinancing and restructuring for other purposes, such as to delay loss recognition, is contrary to the Bank´s policies. The Bank’s refinancing and restructuring policies are based on the following general principles: Refinancing and restructuring is authorized according to the capacity of customers to pay the new installments. This is done by first identifying the origin of the payment difficulties and then carrying out an analysis of the customers’ viability, including an updated analysis of their economic and financial situation and capacity to pay and generate funds. If the customer is a company, the analysis also covers the situation of the industry in which it operates. With the aim of increasing the solvency of the operation, new guarantees and/or guarantors of demonstrable solvency are obtained where possible. An essential part of this process is an analysis of the effectiveness of both the new and original guarantees. This analysis is carried out from the overall customer or group perspective. Refinancing and restructuring operations do not in general increase the amount of the customer’s loan, except for the expenses inherent to the operation itself. The capacity to refinance and restructure loan s is not delegated to the branches, but decided on by the risk units. The decisions made are reviewed from time to time with the aim of evaluating full compliance with refinancing and restructuring policies. In the case of retail customers (private individuals), the main aim of the Bank’s policy on refinancing and restructuring loan s is to avoid default arising from a customer’s temporary liquidity problems by implementing structural solutions that do not increase the balance of customer’s loan. The solution required is adapted to each case and the loan repayment is made easier, in accordance with the following principles: Analysis of the viability of operations based on the customer’s willingness and ability to pay, which may be reduced, but should nevertheless be present. The customer must therefore repay at least the interest on the operation in all cases. No arrangements may be concluded that involve a grace period for both principal and interest. Refinancing and restructuring of operations is only allowed on those loans in which the Bank originally entered into. Customers subject to refinancing and restructuring operations are excluded from marketing campaigns of any kind. Under restructuring or refinancing, the cure period is defined as 1 year from the latter of: The moment of extending the restructuring measures The moment when the exposure has been classified as defaulted The end of grace period included in the restructuring arrangements Additionally, this period should not be shorter than the period during which material payment has been made by the customer . During the cure period, facilities will have a PD of 100% assigned and classified in Stage 3. Once the cure period for Stage 3 is finished, the contract refinancing and r estructuring will be transferred to Stage 2 for two additional years. |

Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future over the years in which the deferred income tax are deductible, Management of the Bank believes that as of December 31, 2018 it is probable that the Bank will realize all of the deferred income tax assets. Taxable p rofit projections for 2019 take into account the following: Taxable income is determined based on the profit or loss without hyperinflationary adjustment. It has to be noted that in 2018 the application of hyperinflationary adjustment resulted in a reduction of 11,654,234 of profit ( see N ote 3.2). Tax inflation adjustment does not apply for 2018 since the required threshold of inflation was no t reached. In case tax inflation adjustment should have been applied, its methodology differs significantly from the methodology in accordance with IAS 29, and the loss generated by the tax inflation adjustment would have been lower than the loss as calcul ated in accordance with accounting purposes. Moreover, during February 2019 the Bank sold a portion of its interest in Prisma Medios de Pago, generating a sig nificant tax profit (see N ote 50). 16.2. Unrecognised deferred tax liabilities At December 31, 2018 and 2017 there were deferred tax liabilities of 364,416 and 336,016 , respectively, related to investmen ts in subsidiaries and in joint ventures. However this liability was not recognized because the G roup controls the dividend polic y of its subsidiaries and is able to veto the payment of dividends of its joint venture s .

Change in tax rate Income tax rate was reduced from the 35% applicable in 2017 to 30% for annual periods ended in 2018 and 2019, and to 25% for annual periods ended in 2020 onwards. 16.5. Income tax exposure – inflation adjustment The tax inflation adjustment prescribed by Law 20,628 allows the tax payers to recognize certain inflation effects on the tax provisions. At December 31, 2016 the Bank recognized and measured its Income tax provision without applying a tax inflation adjust ment, since it was suspended by Law 24,073. On May 10, 2017, after analyzing the effect of the non-application of the tax inflation adjustment and on the basis of related legal precedents, the Bank approved the filing of a petition for the courts to decla re such suspension to be unconstitutional based on the non-confiscatory principle set in article 17 of the Argentina National Constitution, in the light of the confiscatory effect that these provisions entail in this specific case. The Bank therefore filed its Income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2016 having applied the inflation adjustment mechanism in its preparation. The net impact of this measure is a reduction in the Income T ax Expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 for 1,185,800 in nominal value (corresponding to 2,058,359 in terms of currency as of December 31, 2018) recognized in “Income tax expense” as of December 31, 2017. On May 10, 2018 using the same position as in prior year , the Bank filed its Income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2017 having applied the inflation adjustment mechanism in its preparation with a net impact of 1,021,518 in nominal values (corresponding to 1,414,068 in terms of currency as of December 31, 2018) in “Income tax expense” as of December 3 1, 2018. As a result of the evaluation conducted, and on the basis of the opinion rendered by its legal and tax advisors, the Bank considers that the chances of obtaining at the ultimate judicial instance a court decision in support of a method to calculat e income tax for this fiscal period that includes a deduction for the effects of inflation are much higher than a judgment that disallows such adjustment in view of the confiscation inherent in the tax rate derived from non-application of the inflation adj ustment mechanisms. Therefore, the Bank has not recognized any provision related to this matter as of December 31, 2018 . The Bank is currently preparing its income tax return for 2018 and the Board of Directors will decide in the coming days whether to giv e effect to an adjustment for inflation in such income tax return. Income tax – motions for refund of amounts paid for fiscal years 2013, 2014 and 2015 In connection with the years 2013, 2014 and 2015, the Bank determined its taxable income without applyin g the inflation adjustment mechanism for tax purposes, which led to income taxes paid in excess for 264,257, 647,945 and 555,002 in nominal values in those periods. On the basis of the Bank’s position presented in the preceding paragraphs, on November 19, 2015 a prior administrative claim for the recovery of these overpayments was filed with the administrative authorities in connection with the periods 2013 and 2014. On September 23, 2016 a complaint w as filed with the courts for both periods in view of the administrative authorities’ failure to answer. In addition, on April 4, 2017, a petition was filed for the recovery of the tax paid in excess for year 2015. Likewise, on December 29, 2017, the relate d complaint was filed with the court for that year. As of the date of these financial statements, the tax authorities had not yet released a response to the motions lodged . The Bank has not recognized any asset in relation to these claims. |

The Bank applies a credit risk hedging and mitigation policy deriving from a banking approach focused on relationship banking. The existence of guarantees could be a necessary but no t sufficient instrument for accepting risks, as the assumption of risks by the Bank requires prior evaluation of the debtor’s capacity for repayment, or that the debtor can generate sufficient resources to allow the amortization of the risk incurred under the agreed terms. The procedures for the management and valuation of collateral following the Corporate Policies (retail and wholesale), which establish the basic principles for credit risk management, including the management of collaterals assigned in tr ansactions with customers. The methods used to value the collateral are in line with the best market practices and imply the use of appraisal of real-estate collateral, the market price in market securities, the trading price of shares in investment funds, etc. All the collaterals received must be correctly assigned and entered in the corresponding register. Regarding the types of collateral managed by BBVA Francés, the following stand out: - Guarantees: It includes sureties or unsecured instruments. - Joint and several guarantee: upon default on payment, the creditor may collect the unpaid amount from either the debtor or the surety. - Joint guarantee: in this case the guarantors and debt-holders are liable in proportion to their interest in the company / transaction and restricted to such amount or percentage. - Security Interest: it includes guarantees based on tangible assets, which a re classified as follows: Mortgages: a mort gage does not change the debtor's unlimited liability, who is fully liable. They are documented pursuant to the Bank's internal regulations for such purposes and are duly registered. Also, there is an independe nt appraisal, at market value, which enables a prompt sale. Pledges: this includes chattel mortgages of motor vehicles or machinery, as well as liens on time deposits and investment funds. To be accepted, they shall be effective upon realization accord ingly, they are properly documented and shall be approved by the Legal Services area. Finally, the Bank hedges against the variation in the value of the pledge. The disclosure of impaired financial assets at amortized cost covered by collateral, by type of collateral, at December 31, 2018, is the following: Of which secured by collateral December 31, 2018 Maximum exposure to credit risk Residential properties Commercial Properties Cash Others Financial Impaired financial assets at amortized cost 3,753,483 6,955 - - 29,790 - Total 3,753,483 6,955 - - 29,790 - Financial guarantees, other contingent risks and drawable by third parties: These have the counterparty’s personal guarantee. The maximum credit risk exposure of impaired financial guarantees and other commitments a t December 31, 2018 amounts to 84,661. Foreclosed assets are recognized when the Bank receives the ownership of the asset, which are mainly real estate. The Bank intends to sell these assets taking into account market conditions. Loan commitments To meet the specific financial needs of customers, the Bank 's credit policy also includes, among others, the granting of financial guarantess, letters of credit and lines of credit through checking accounts overdrafts and credit cards . Although these transactions are not recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position , because they imply a pot ential liability for the Bank , they expose the Bank to credit risks in addition to those recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are, therefore, an integral part of the Bank 's total risk. Main types of guarantors and counterpart ies of credit derivatives The Bank defines that the collateral (or credit derivative) shall be direct, explicit, irrevocable and unconditional in order to be accepted as risk mitigation. Furthermore, regarding admissible guarantors, BBVA Francés accepts f inancial institutions (local or foreign), public entities, stock exchange companies, resident and non-resident companies, including insurance companies. Credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired The Bank has tools (“scoring ” and “rating”) that enable it to rank the credit quality of its transactions and customers based on an assessment and its correspondence with the probability of default (“PD”) scales. To analyze the performance of PD, the Bank has a series of tracking too ls and historical databases that collect the pertinent internally generated information. These tools can be grouped together into scoring and rating models, being the main difference between ratings and scorings is that the latter are used to assess retail products, while ratings use a wholesale banking customer approach. These different levels and their probability of default were calculated by using as a reference the rating scales and default rates. These calculations establish the levels of prob ability of default for the Bank ’s Master Rating Scale. Although this scale is common to the entire Group, the calibrations (mapping scores to PD sections/Master Rating Scale levels) are carried out at tool level for each country in which the Group has tools availa ble. Market risk BBVA Francés considers market risk as the likelihood of losses of value of the trading portfolio as a consequence of adverse changes in market variables affecting the valuation of financial products and instruments. The main market risk factors the Bank is exposed to are as follows: Interest rate risk: From exposure to changes in the various interest rate curves. Foreign exchange risk: From changes in the various foreign exchange rates. All positions in a currency other than the currency of the consolidated statements of financial position create foreign exchange risk. The Financial Risks Management of the Risks Management area applies the criteria, policies and procedures defined by the Board of Directors within the management of that ri sk, with a follow-up and control of its proper application, and proposing the necessary actions to maintain the quality of risk within the defined appetite for risk. The financial risks management model of BBVA Francés consists of the Market Risks and Stru ctural Risks and Economic Capital Areas, which are coordinated for control and follow-up of risks. The management of these risks is in line with the basic principles of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, with a comprehensive process to identify, measure, monitor and control risks. The organization of financial risks is completed with a scheme of committees in which it participates, for the purpose of having an agile management process integrated into the treatment of the various risks. Among other s: Assets and liabilities committee (ALCO) Risk Management Committee (RMC) Financial Risks Committee (FRC) BBVA Francés has many tools and systems to manage and follow-up market risk, to achieve effective risk control and treatment. The main market risk metric is VaR (“Value at Risk”), a parameter to estimate the maximum loss expected for the trading portfolio positions with a 99% confidence level and a time horizon of 1 day. Current management structure and procedures in force include follow-up of a li mits and alerts scheme in terms of VaR, economic capital, stress and stop loss. The market risk measurement model is periodically validated through Back-Testing to determine the quality and precision of the VaR estimate. The Market Risk management model co ntemplates procedures for communication in the event the risks levels defined are exceeded, establishing specific communication and acting circuits based on the exceeded threshold. The market risk measurement perimeter is the trading portfolio (trading boo k) managed by the Global Markets unit. This portfolio mainly consists of: Argentine Government Securities. Argentine Central Bank Bills Provincial debt securities. Corporate Bonds. Foreign exchange spot. Derivatives (Exchange rate Futures and Forwards and Interest rate swaps ).

The process to manage this risk has a limits and alerts structure to keep the exposure to this risk within levels that are consistent with the appetite for risk and the business strategy defined and approved by the Board of Directors. Within the core metrics used for measurement, follow-up and control, the following stand out: Margin at Risk (MaR): quantifies the maximum loss which may be recorded in the financial margin projected for 12 months under the worst case scenario of rate curves for a certain level of confidence. Economic Capital (EC): quantifies the maximum loss which may be recorded in the economic value of the Bank under the worst case scenario of rate curves for a certain level of confide nce. The Bank additionally carries out an analysis of sensitivity of the economic value and the financial margin for parallel variations by +/- 100 basis points over interest rates. The following table shows the progress of the sensitivity of the economic value (SEV), given a variation of +100 basis points in relation to the Core Capital: SEV +100 bps December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Closing 1.43% 1.53% 1.03% Minimum 1.01% 0.80% 0.68% Maximum 2.05% 1.65% 1.33% Average 1.61% 1.13% 0.94% The following table shows the progress of the sensitivity of the financial margin (SFM), given a variation of -100 basis points in relation to the 12-month projected margin: SFM -100 bps December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Closing 2.14% 2.18% 0.03% Minimum 1.98% 0.03% 0.02% Maximum 2.73% 2.18% 0.37% Average 2.26% 0.34% 0.17% Liquidity and financing risk The liquidity risk is defined as the possibility of the Bank not efficiently meeting its payment obligations without incurring significant losses which may affect its daily operations or its financial standing. The short-term purpose of the liquidity and financing risk management process at BBVA Francés is to tim ely and duly address payment commitments agreed, without resorting to additional funding deteriorating the Bank 's reputation or significantly affecting its financial position, keeping the exposure to this risk within levels that are consistent with the app etite for risk and the business strategy defined and approved by the Board of Directors. In the medium and long term, to watch for the suitability of the financial structure of the Bank and its evolution, according to the economic situation, the markets an d regulatory changes. Within the core metrics used for measurement, follow-up and control of this risk, the following stand out: LtSCD: (Loan to Stable Customers Deposits), measures the relationship between the net credit investment and the customers’ stab le resources, and is set forth as the key metric of appetite for risk. The goal is to preserve a stable financing structure in the medium and long term. LCR: (Liquidity Coverage Ratio), which measures the relation between high quality liquid assets and to tal net cash outflows during a 30-day period. BBVA Francés, as established in the regulations issued " id="sjs-B4" xml:space="preserve">40. Financial instruments risks Presentation of Risk Management and Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA) Strategies and processes The purpose of the organization is based on assuming a prudent level of risks in order to generate yields and keep acceptable levels of capital and funding, and generate benefits on a recurring basis. Therefore, it is vital that the teams assigned to risk management are highly trained professionals. The General Risks Policy of BBVA Francés expr esses the levels and types of risk the Bank is willing to take to carry out its strategic plan, with no relevant deviations, even under stress conditions. Along this line, the process for risks management is comprehensive and proportional to the economic s ize and importance of the financial institution. To achieve its goals, BBVA Francés uses a management model with two principles for the decision-making process: Caution: Materialized in relation to the management of the various risks acknowledged by the Bank . Anticipation: Makes reference to the capacity of making decisions foreseeing relevant changes in the environment, the competition and customers, having effects on a medium-term. This process aims to be adequate, sufficiently proven, duly documented and periodically reviewed based on the changes to the Bank ’s risk profile and the market. Along this line, the Board of Directors and the Senior Management are highly committed to the identification, evaluation, follow-up, control and mitigation of signi ficant risks. These organizations periodically review credit, financial and operational risks which may potentially affect the success of BBVA Francés’ activities, as well as with a special emphasis on strategic, reputation and concentration risks. Structure and organization The Bank has a formal organizational structure, with a set of roles, responsibilities and powers, organized in a pyramidal structure, generating control instances from lower to higher levels, up to the highest decision-making bo dies. Below are the areas in each structure and a list of their functions: Risks Management Committees Control and Reporting Units Cross-Control Areas Risks Management: This is an area that is independent from business units, in charge of implementing the criteria, policies and procedures defined by the organization within the scope of credit (retail and wholesale), operational and market risk management, with a follow-up and control of proper application and proposing the actions necessary to the keep quality of risks within the defined goals. Some of its main functions are to manage proper information for the decision-making process at all levels, including relevant risk factors, such as: Active management throughout the life of the risk. Clear proce sses and procedures. Integrated management of all risks through identification and quantification. Generation, implementation and dissemination of advanced decision-making support tools. Committees: Committees are the instances through which risks are treated. This implies knowledge, assessment, weighting and potential mitigation. BBVA Francés has an agile and proper structure of committees for the management of the various risks. Control and Reporting Units: Control and monitoring areas are in charg e of giving cohesion to credit risk management and ensure that management of the rest of risks that are critical to the Bank is in accordance with the established standards. The main responsibilities of Internal Risks Control are: monitor there is a proper internal regulatory framework; a process and measures defined for each type of risks; control its application and operation; and, manage an assessment of the existence of a control environment and its proper implementation and operation. The area has a Mo dels Validation team managing that BBVA Francés’ internal risk statistical models are adequate for use, which issues a grounded and updated opinion on proper use of such models. The Reporting Units are in charge of control procedures for risk rating and fractioning, provisioning, determining the risk quota for each segment of economic activity and type of financing, preparing fundamental metrics setting forth the principles and general risk profile in t he statement of Appetite for Risk in quantitative terms . In addition, it is in charge of generating reports for the Risks Management for the decision-making process in accordance with internal credit policies and control organizations’ policies, reviewing processes and proposing alternatives. Cross-Control Areas The Bank also has cross-control areas for business and support units, such as: Internal Audit, Regulatory Compliance and Internal Control. Risk Appetite Framework Risk Appetite is a key element in the management of financial institutions, providing the Bank with a comprehensive framework to determine the risks and level of risks, willing to intervene to reach its business goals, expressed in terms of capital, liquid ity, profitability, income recurrence, risks costs or other metrics. Risk Appetite is expressed through a Statement containing the general principles for the Bank’s strategy and quantitative metrics. Stress Testing Stress test means the evaluation of the Bank 's financial position under a severe but plausible scenario, which requires the simulation of scenarios to estimate the potential impact on the value of portfolios, profitability, solvency and liquidity for the purposes of identifying latent risks or d etecting vulnerabilities. Credit risk Credit risk arises from the probability that one party to a financial instrument will fail to meet its contractual obligations for reasons of insolvency or inability to pay and cause a financial loss for the other part y. It is the most important risk for the Bank and includes counterparty risk, issuer risk, settlement risk and country risk management. The principles underpinning credit risk management are as follows: Availability of basic information for the study an d proposal of risk, and supporting documentation for approval, which sets out the conditions required by the internal relevant body. Sufficient generation of funds and asset solvency of the customer to assume principal and interest repayments of loans owe d. Establishment of adequate and sufficient guarantees that allow effective recovery of the transaction, this being considered a secondary and exceptional method of recovery when the first has failed. As for country risk BBVA Francés defines it as the r isk of sustaining losses generated in investments and loans to individuals, companies and governments due to the incidence of economic, political and social events o ccurring in a foreign country. Strategy and processes BBVA Francés develops the credit ris k strategy defining the goals that will guide its granting activities, the policies to be adopted and the necessary practices and procedures to carry out those activities. Additionally, annually the Risks Management develops, together with the rest of the Bank's management departments, a budget process, including the main variables of credit risk: Expected growth per portfolio and product. Evolution of the default ratio. Evolution of write-off portfolios. This way, the expected standard credit risk val ues for a term of one year are set. Afterwards, the real values obtained are compared with that budget, to assess both the growth of the portfolio and its quality. Also, maximum limits or exposures per economic activity are formalized, pursuant to the Bank ’s placement strategy, which are used to follow up credit portfolios. In the event of deviations from the limits set, these are analyzed by the Risks Follow-Up Committees to take the necessary measures. Admission BBVA Frances has credit risk admission poli cies, to define the criteria to obtain quality assets, establish risk tolerance levels and alignment of the credit activities with the strategy of BBVA Francés and in accordance with the Group. The policy of accepting risks is therefore organized into thre e different levels in the Group: Analysis of the financial risk of the transaction, based on the debtor’s capacity for repayment or generation of funds. The constitution of guarantees that are adequate, or at any rate generally accepted, for the risk ass umed, in any of the generally accepted forms: monetary, secured, personal or hedge guarantees; and finally. Assessment of the repayment risk (asset liquidity) of the guarantees received. Follow-up The Bank establishes certain follow-up procedures based on the banking area involved, since the admission stage is not the end of the process. Follow-up is as important as deciding, since the risk is dynamic and customers rely on themselves and the environment. The main follow-up procedures carried out for the various Banking areas are: Follow-up of the limit granted: Since customer profiles vary over time, the limits of products hired are periodically reviewed for the purpose of broadening, reducing or suspending the limit assigned, based on the risk situati on. Maintenance of proactive limits: Customers’ characteristics, and therefore the characteristics of the data originating certain limits, vary over time. Therefore, there is periodical maintenance of the proactive limits, taking into consideration the ch anges in a customer's situation (position of asset and liability and relationship). Likewise, there is a periodic follow-up of the evolution of proactive limits for the purpose of controlling and ensuring the risk assigned is in accordance with the desired risk levels. Follow-up of rating tools: Rating tools are a reflection of the internal inputs and show the characteristics and biases of such inputs. Therefore, they need a long period of use to soften or eliminate those biases through the inclusion of new information, correction of existing information and periodic reviews optimizing the results of back-tests. Portfolio analysis: The portfolio analysis consists of a follow-up process and study of the complete cycle of the risk of portfolios for the purpose of analyzing the status of the portfolio, identifying potential paths towards improvements in management and forecasting future behavior. Additionally, the following functions shall be carried out: Follow-up of specific customers. Follow-up of product s. Follow-up of units (branches, areas, channels). Other follow-up actions (samples, control of admission process and risk management, campaigns). The priority in credit risk follow-up processes is focused mainly on problematic or potentially problematic customers, for preventive purposes. The remaining aspects, the follow-up of products, units and other follow-up actions are supplementary to the specific follow-up of customers. Recovery BBVA Francés has also a Recoveries Area within Risks Management, t o mitigate the severity of credit portfolios, both from the Bank and from companies related to the Bank , as well as to provide the results from the Bank directly, through collections of Write-Off portfolios and indirectly through collections of active port folios, which imply a reduction of allowances. Structure and organization The credit risk management model at BBVA Francés has a formal organizational structure, with a set of roles, responsibilities and powers, organized in a pyramidal structure, generat ing control instances from lower to higher levels, up to the highest decision-making bodies. Management Committee Board of Directors. For the purpose of having a continuous and integrated management process with coordination between all areas involved, th e Risks Management has admissions areas, follow-up areas, recoveries areas and policies and tools areas. That management model is completed with an agile and proper structure of committees for credit risk management to treat risks, which implies knowledge, assessment, weighting and potential mitigation. Scope and nature of information and/or risk measurement systems BBVA Frances has several tools to be used in credit risk management for effective risk control and facilitating the entire process. Along thi s line, the Bank prepares, among others, the following periodic reports: Progress of Risks. Payment Schedules. Ratings. Dashboard. Early Alerts System. Quarterly tools follow-up sheet. Exposure to credit risk The Bank ’s maximum credit risk exposure (see definition below) by line items in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2018 is provided below. It does not consider the availability of collateral or other credit enhancements to guarant ee compliance with payment obligations. The details are broken down by financial instruments and counterparties . The maximum amount of credit risk of the Bank 's financial assets is reported below: Detail December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Financial assets at amortized cost Cash and cash equivalents 99,105,461 56,453,684 88,746,425 Reverse repurchase agreements 12,861,116 9,345,877 107,461 Other financial assets 9,237,237 3,414,951 1,234,350 Loans and advances 185,682,307 191,774,986 147,725,369 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Debt securities 7,508,099 8,588,127 6,764,936 Derivatives 591,418 210,756 98,987 Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Debt securities 24,821,610 25,207,899 17,216,324 Total 339,807,248 294,996,280 261,893,852 Financial guarantees and loan commitments Advances and loans agreed not used 140,535,333 162,099,880 127,401,476 Guarantees granted 1,889,557 1,164,947 729,939 Liabilities from foreign trade transactions 141,321 158,598 179,588 Letters of credit 462,080 519,399 461,670 Total 143,028,291 163,942,824 128,772,673 The maximum credit exposure presented in the table above is determined by type of financial asset as explained below: In the case of financial assets recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position , exposure to credit risk is considered equal to its carrying amount (not including impairment losses), with the sole exception of derivatives . The maximum credit risk exposure on financial guarantees granted is the maximum that the Bank would be liable f or if these guarantees were called in, and that is their amount. The calculation of risk exposure for derivatives is based on the sum of two factors: the derivatives fair value and their potential risk (or "add-on"). The first factor, fair value, reflect s the difference between original commitments and fair values on the reporting date (mark-to-market). The second factor, potential risk (‘add-on’), is an estimate of the maximum increase to be expected on risk exposure over a derivative fair value (at a g iven statistical confidence level) as a result of future changes in the fair value over the remaining term of the derivatives. The consideration of the potential risk ("add-on") relates the risk exposure to the exposure level at the time of a customer’s d efault. The exposure level will depend on the customer’s credit quality and the type of transaction with such customer. Given the fact that default is an uncertain event which might occur any time during the life of a contract, the Bank has to consider not only the credit exposure of the derivatives on the reporting date, but also the potential changes in exposure during the life of the contract. This is especially important for derivatives, whose valuation changes substantially throughout their terms, depe nding on the fluctuation of market prices. Information on the credit quality of assets The Bank’s credit risk quality of loans and advances with stage allocation by asset classification as of December 31, 2018 is provided below.

The Bank applies a credit risk hedging and mitigation policy deriving from a banking approach focused on relationship banking. The existence of guarantees could be a necessary but no t sufficient instrument for accepting risks, as the assumption of risks by the Bank requires prior evaluation of the debtor’s capacity for repayment, or that the debtor can generate sufficient resources to allow the amortization of the risk incurred under the agreed terms. The procedures for the management and valuation of collateral following the Corporate Policies (retail and wholesale), which establish the basic principles for credit risk management, including the management of collaterals assigned in tr ansactions with customers. The methods used to value the collateral are in line with the best market practices and imply the use of appraisal of real-estate collateral, the market price in market securities, the trading price of shares in investment funds, etc. All the collaterals received must be correctly assigned and entered in the corresponding register. Regarding the types of collateral managed by BBVA Francés, the following stand out: - Guarantees: It includes sureties or unsecured instruments. - Joint and several guarantee: upon default on payment, the creditor may collect the unpaid amount from either the debtor or the surety. - Joint guarantee: in this case the guarantors and debt-holders are liable in proportion to their interest in the company / transaction and restricted to such amount or percentage. - Security Interest: it includes guarantees based on tangible assets, which a re classified as follows: Mortgages: a mort gage does not change the debtor's unlimited liability, who is fully liable. They are documented pursuant to the Bank's internal regulations for such purposes and are duly registered. Also, there is an independe nt appraisal, at market value, which enables a prompt sale. Pledges: this includes chattel mortgages of motor vehicles or machinery, as well as liens on time deposits and investment funds. To be accepted, they shall be effective upon realization accord ingly, they are properly documented and shall be approved by the Legal Services area. Finally, the Bank hedges against the variation in the value of the pledge. The disclosure of impaired financial assets at amortized cost covered by collateral, by type of collateral, at December 31, 2018, is the following: Of which secured by collateral December 31, 2018 Maximum exposure to credit risk Residential properties Commercial Properties Cash Others Financial Impaired financial assets at amortized cost 3,753,483 6,955 - - 29,790 - Total 3,753,483 6,955 - - 29,790 - Financial guarantees, other contingent risks and drawable by third parties: These have the counterparty’s personal guarantee. The maximum credit risk exposure of impaired financial guarantees and other commitments a t December 31, 2018 amounts to 84,661. Foreclosed assets are recognized when the Bank receives the ownership of the asset, which are mainly real estate. The Bank intends to sell these assets taking into account market conditions. Loan commitments To meet the specific financial needs of customers, the Bank 's credit policy also includes, among others, the granting of financial guarantess, letters of credit and lines of credit through checking accounts overdrafts and credit cards . Although these transactions are not recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position , because they imply a pot ential liability for the Bank , they expose the Bank to credit risks in addition to those recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are, therefore, an integral part of the Bank 's total risk. Main types of guarantors and counterpart ies of credit derivatives The Bank defines that the collateral (or credit derivative) shall be direct, explicit, irrevocable and unconditional in order to be accepted as risk mitigation. Furthermore, regarding admissible guarantors, BBVA Francés accepts f inancial institutions (local or foreign), public entities, stock exchange companies, resident and non-resident companies, including insurance companies. Credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired The Bank has tools (“scoring ” and “rating”) that enable it to rank the credit quality of its transactions and customers based on an assessment and its correspondence with the probability of default (“PD”) scales. To analyze the performance of PD, the Bank has a series of tracking too ls and historical databases that collect the pertinent internally generated information. These tools can be grouped together into scoring and rating models, being the main difference between ratings and scorings is that the latter are used to assess retail products, while ratings use a wholesale banking customer approach. These different levels and their probability of default were calculated by using as a reference the rating scales and default rates. These calculations establish the levels of prob ability of default for the Bank ’s Master Rating Scale. Although this scale is common to the entire Group, the calibrations (mapping scores to PD sections/Master Rating Scale levels) are carried out at tool level for each country in which the Group has tools availa ble. Market risk BBVA Francés considers market risk as the likelihood of losses of value of the trading portfolio as a consequence of adverse changes in market variables affecting the valuation of financial products and instruments. The main market risk factors the Bank is exposed to are as follows: Interest rate risk: From exposure to changes in the various interest rate curves. Foreign exchange risk: From changes in the various foreign exchange rates. All positions in a currency other than the currency of the consolidated statements of financial position create foreign exchange risk. The Financial Risks Management of the Risks Management area applies the criteria, policies and procedures defined by the Board of Directors within the management of that ri sk, with a follow-up and control of its proper application, and proposing the necessary actions to maintain the quality of risk within the defined appetite for risk. The financial risks management model of BBVA Francés consists of the Market Risks and Stru ctural Risks and Economic Capital Areas, which are coordinated for control and follow-up of risks. The management of these risks is in line with the basic principles of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, with a comprehensive process to identify, measure, monitor and control risks. The organization of financial risks is completed with a scheme of committees in which it participates, for the purpose of having an agile management process integrated into the treatment of the various risks. Among other s: Assets and liabilities committee (ALCO) Risk Management Committee (RMC) Financial Risks Committee (FRC) BBVA Francés has many tools and systems to manage and follow-up market risk, to achieve effective risk control and treatment. The main market risk metric is VaR (“Value at Risk”), a parameter to estimate the maximum loss expected for the trading portfolio positions with a 99% confidence level and a time horizon of 1 day. Current management structure and procedures in force include follow-up of a li mits and alerts scheme in terms of VaR, economic capital, stress and stop loss. The market risk measurement model is periodically validated through Back-Testing to determine the quality and precision of the VaR estimate. The Market Risk management model co ntemplates procedures for communication in the event the risks levels defined are exceeded, establishing specific communication and acting circuits based on the exceeded threshold. The market risk measurement perimeter is the trading portfolio (trading boo k) managed by the Global Markets unit. This portfolio mainly consists of: Argentine Government Securities. Argentine Central Bank Bills Provincial debt securities. Corporate Bonds. Foreign exchange spot. Derivatives (Exchange rate Futures and Forwards and Interest rate swaps ). The following tables sho w the evolution of trading portfolio total VaR and VaR per risk factors .

The process to manage this risk has a limits and alerts structure to keep the exposure to this risk within levels that are consistent with the appetite for risk and the business strategy defined and approved by the Board of Directors. Within the core metrics used for measurement, follow-up and control, the following stand out: Margin at Risk (MaR): quantifies the maximum loss which may be recorded in the financial margin projected for 12 months under the worst case scenario of rate curves for a certain level of confidence. Economic Capital (EC): quantifies the maximum loss which may be recorded in the economic value of the Bank under the worst case scenario of rate curves for a certain level of confide nce. The Bank additionally carries out an analysis of sensitivity of the economic value and the financial margin for parallel variations by +/- 100 basis points over interest rates. The following table shows the progress of the sensitivity of the economic value (SEV), given a variation of +100 basis points in relation to the Core Capital: SEV +100 bps December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Closing 1.43% 1.53% 1.03% Minimum 1.01% 0.80% 0.68% Maximum 2.05% 1.65% 1.33% Average 1.61% 1.13% 0.94% The following table shows the progress of the sensitivity of the financial margin (SFM), given a variation of -100 basis points in relation to the 12-month projected margin: SFM -100 bps December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Closing 2.14% 2.18% 0.03% Minimum 1.98% 0.03% 0.02% Maximum 2.73% 2.18% 0.37% Average 2.26% 0.34% 0.17% Liquidity and financing risk The liquidity risk is defined as the possibility of the Bank not efficiently meeting its payment obligations without incurring significant losses which may affect its daily operations or its financial standing. The short-term purpose of the liquidity and financing risk management process at BBVA Francés is to tim ely and duly address payment commitments agreed, without resorting to additional funding deteriorating the Bank 's reputation or significantly affecting its financial position, keeping the exposure to this risk within levels that are consistent with the app etite for risk and the business strategy defined and approved by the Board of Directors. In the medium and long term, to watch for the suitability of the financial structure of the Bank and its evolution, according to the economic situation, the markets an d regulatory changes. Within the core metrics used for measurement, follow-up and control of this risk, the following stand out: LtSCD: (Loan to Stable Customers Deposits), measures the relationship between the net credit investment and the customers’ stab le resources, and is set forth as the key metric of appetite for risk. The goal is to preserve a stable financing structure in the medium and long term. LCR: (Liquidity Coverage Ratio), which measures the relation between high quality liquid assets and to tal net cash outflows during a 30-day period.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments Abstract | |
Disclosure of Fair Values of Financial Instruments | 41. Fair values of financial instruments a) Assets and liabilities measured at fair value The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2018 is detailed below: Accounting balance Total Fair value Level 1 Fair value Level 2 Fair value Financial assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Debt securities 7,508,099 7,508,099 54,011 7,454,088 Derivatives 591,418 591,418 - 591,418 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Equity instruments 528,026 528,026 528,026 - Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income - Debt securities 24,821,610 24,821,610 100,166 24,721,444 Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income - Equity instruments 13,926 13,926 13,226 700 Financial liabilities Trading liabilities 692,270 692,270 162,696 529,574 Derivatives 1,377,259 1,377,259 - 1,377,259 The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2017 is detailed below: Accounting balance Total Fair value Level 1 Fair value Level 2 Fair value Financial assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Debt securities 8,588,127 8,588,127 6,277,865 2,310,262 Derivatives 210,756 210,756 - 210,756 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Equity instruments 695,664 695,664 695,664 - Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income - Equity instruments 18,244 18,244 17,567 677 Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income - Debt securities 25,207,899 25,207,899 16,203,297 9,004,602 Financial liabilities Derivatives 339,253 339,253 - 339,253 The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of January 1, 201 7 is detailed below: Accounting balance Total Fair value Level 1 Fair value Level 2 Fair value Financial assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Debt securities 6,764,936 6,764,936 2,359,335 4,405,601 Derivatives 98,987 98,987 - 98,987 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Equity instruments 407,664 407,664 407,664 - Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income - Equity instruments 18,156 18,156 - 18,156 Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income - Debt Securities 17,214,820 17,214,820 1,197,145 16,017,675 Financial liabilities Derivatives 107,430 107,430 - 107,430 The fair value of a financial asset or liability is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The most objective and us ual reference of the fair value of a financial asset or liability is the price that would be paid in an orderly, transparent and deep market, that is to say its quoting or market price. If it is not possible to obtain a market price, a fair value is determ ined using best market practice quoting techniques, such as cash flows discount based on a yields curve for the same class and type of instrument, or if there is no market curve with the same characteristics of the bond, the technical value is calculated c onsidering the latest market price plus interest accrued until the valuation date (whichever is more representative for the species). In line with the accounting standard, a three-level classification of financial instruments is established. This classific ation is mainly made based on the observability of the necessary inputs to calculate that fair value, defining the following levels: Level 1: Financial instruments valued with quoted prices in an active market. Active market means a market that allows the observation of representative prices with suffic ient frequency and daily volume. Level 2: Financial instruments that do not have an active market, but that may be valued through market observable data. Level 3: Valuation using models where variables not o btained from observable market information are used. Financial assets at fair value mainly consist of BCRA Liquidity Bills and Argentine Treasury Bills (Letes), together with a minor share in Argentine Government Bonds and Corporate Bonds. Likewise, finan cial derivatives are classified at fair value, which includes foreign currency forward transactions and interest rate swaps with settlement at maturity. There a re no Level 3 financial assets. b) Transfers between hierarchy levels b.1) Transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 The following instruments measured at fair value were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy: December 31, 2018 Argentine Bond in Pesos due 2038 1,615 The transfer is due to the f act that the bond was not traded in the market the number of days necessary to be considered Level 1. No transfers have occurred from Level 1 to Level 2 as of December 31, 2017. b.2) Transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 No transfers have occurred from Level 2 to Level 1 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017. b.3) Valuation techniques for Levels 2 and 3 The determination of fair value prices set forth by the bank for fixed income consists of considering reference market prices for active markets MAE (“Mercado Abierto Electrónico”) and BYMA (“Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos”). If there are no quotings for the last 10 business days, a theoretical assessment is made. The valuation allocated to financial assets that were not listed in the last 10 business days is determined by considering the latest quoted market price, plus interest accrued until the valuation date or technical value, whichever is more representative. The theoretical assessment carried out for swaps and non-delivery forwards consists in discounting the futur e flows of the investment applying the interest rate as per the proper spot rates curve. The estimate of future cash flows for swaps is made considering the spot rates in pesos and the BADLAR rate curve as input. In the case of non-delivery forwards, futu re cash flows are estimated considering the fair values of Rofex futures as inputs. For Level 2 Calculations, input data observable in the market is required: the last quoted market price (MAE or BYMA), the terms of the bond issue as detailed in the respective offering memorandum or, in the particular case of BADLAR-adjustable bonds, the terms published in the BCRA's web site, the spot discount curve. b.4) Reconciliation of opening and closing balances of Level 3 assets and liabilities at fair value No Level 3 fair value balances exist . c) Fair value of Assets and Liabilities not measured at fair value Below is a description of methodologies and assumptions used to assess the fair value of the main financial instruments not measured at fair value, wh en the instrument does not have a quoting value in an active market. Assets and liabilities with fair value similar to their accounting balance For financial assets and financial liabilities maturing in less than one year, it is considered that the accounting balance is similar to fair value. This assumption also applies for demand deposits, because a significant portion thereof (more than 99% considering contractual terms) have a residual maturity of less than one year. Fixed rate financial instruments The fair value of financial assets was assessed by discounting future cash flows from market rates at each measurement date for financial instruments with similar characteristics. Variable rate financial instruments For financial assets and financial liabilities accruing a variable rate, it is considered that the accounting balance is similar to the fair value. The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities not measured at fair value as of December 31, 2018 is detailed below: Accounting balance Total Fair value Level 2 Fair value Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents 99,105,461 (1) - Reverse repurchase agreements 12,719,131 (1) - Other financial assets 9,237,235 (1) - Loans and advances 181,584,755 176,801,211 176,801,211 Financial assets pledged as collateral 3,625,263 (1) - Financial liabilities Deposits 259,509,061 256,910,027 256,910,027 Repurchase agreements 14,321 (1) - Other financial liabilities 28,189,392 (1) - Bank loans 5,527,525 (1) - Debt securities issued 2,473,690 2,412,051 2,412,051 (1) .

Segment Reporting Abstract | |
Disclosure of Segment Reporting | 42. Segment reporting Basis for segmentation The Bank identified the operating segments based on the management information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker: As of December 31, 2018, the Bank has determined that it has only one reporting segment related to banking activities; and As of December 31, 2017 and January 1, 2017, the information presented to the chief operating decision maker was prepared based on the following operating segments: ( i) BBVA Banco Francés S.A. (banking), and (ii) Volkswagen Financial Services Compañía Financiera S.A. (financial services), each considered by the Bank as a single reportable segment. As a consequence of the Bank loss of control in Volkswagen Financial Se rvices Compañía Financiera S.A., it was no longer considered a separate segment as of December 31, 2018. Reportable segments are strategic business units offering different products and services. They are managed separately because each segment is aimed at different markets and consequently requires different commercialization technologies and strategies. During 2017, the Bank updated its internal business segment information adding the analysis of loans and deposits per lines of business (corporate banking , small and medium enterprises and retail). Most of the Bank’s operations, property and customers are located in Argentina. No customer has generated 10% or more of the Bank’s total income. The following tables present information regarding business segmen ts: BBVA Banco Francés S.A.

Minimum Cash and Minimum Capital Abstract | |
Disclosure of Minimum Cash and Minimum Capital | 48. Minimum cash and minimum capital 48.1. Minimum cash The BCRA establishes different cautious regulations to be observed by financial institutions, mainly regarding solvency levels, liquidity and credit assistance levels. Minimum cash regulations set forth an obligation to keep liquid assets in relation to deposits and other obligations recorded for each period. The items included for the purpose of meeting that requirement are detailed below: Accounts December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 January 1, 2017 Balances at the BCRA BCRA – current account - not restricted 82,119,608 41,507,590 57,576,161 BCRA – special guarantee accounts – restricted 1,238,252 1,443,333 1,685,174 83,357,860 42,950,923 59,261,335 Argentine Treasury Bonds in pesos at fixed rate due November 2020 6,936,000 - - Liquidity Bills – BCRA 20,202,428 - - TOTAL 110,496,288 42,950,923 59,261,335 48.2. Minimum capital Minimum capital requirements are determined on the basis of the implicit risks to which the bank is exposed (credit risk, market risk and operational risk). The minimum capital will be the higher of the minimum capital fixed by BCRA and the capital requirements for credit risk, market risk — requirement for daily positions in eligible instruments — and operational risk. These requirements must be complied with on both an individual and a consolidated basis. For the purposes of calculating capital requirements, there is recognition of certain risk mitigation techniques such as collateralization, personal guarantees and credit derivatives, provide d that certain criteria are met financial institutions may opt for either the simple approach (or risk weighting substitution) or for the comprehensive approach, which allows reducing the exposure amount up to the value ascribed to the collateral. Off-balance sheet transactions (including loan commitments) must be converted into credit exposure equivalents through the use of credit conversion factors (CCF). The higher the chance of financing an off-balance sheet transaction, the higher the conversion factor will be. Then, the credit exposure equivalent is weighted based on counterparty risk. Minimum capital must be, at least, the greater of: Minimum basic capital, and The sum of minimum capital required for credit risk, market risk and operational risk. Differential requirements were established for banks and other financial institutions, mainly based on the area where their head offices are located, in order to benefit those areas with smaller banking coverage according to BCRA criteria, which now enjoy less stringent requirements with respect to minimum basic capital. Minimum capital requirement for credit risk will be determined as the sum of: a) 8% of the sum of credit-risk-weighted asset transactions without delivery against payment; b) failed delivery-against-payment transactions; and c) requirement for counterpart credit risk in transactions with over-the-counter derivatives. The sum of (a), (b) and (c) is multiplied by a coefficient which varies from 1 to 1.1 9 based on the rating the Bank is granted by BCRA. Minimum Capital Requirement for Market Risk: BCRA imposes additional minimum capital requirements in relation to market risk associated with positions held by financial institutions in "local assets", "foreign assets", "foreign currency" and "gold", including derivatives bought or sold on such positions. The positions under consideration must be separated according to the currency of issue of each instrument, regardless of the issuer's residence. In the cases of assets expressed in foreign currency, the Bank must consider the risk for two positions: that which corresponds to the assets and the position in foreign currency, the relevant capital requirement being determined on the basis of the latter. The value of all positions will be expressed in pesos by using the reference exchange rate published by the BCRA for the U.S. dollar, after application of the swap rate corresponding to the other currencies. Minimum Capital Requirement for Operational Risk: Operational risk is defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events. The definition includes legal risk but excludes strategic and reputational risk. Financial institutions must establish a system for the management of operational risk that includes policies, processes, procedures and the structure for their adequate management. Any defects of application derived from the requirement of additional capital will not make the financial institution fall into noncompliance with the Minimum Capital Regulations, even if they will not be allowed to distribute cash dividends and pay fees, ownership interest or bonuses originated in the bank's distribution of results. The breakdown of minimum capital is detailed below: Minimum capital requirements December 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Credit risk 18,087,597 18,790,435 Operational risk 3,594,744 3,776,621 Market risk 92,786 545,113 Paid-in 36,274,163 40,321,634 Surplus 14,499,036 17,209,465 |

Significant Accounting Policies Abstract | |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of consolidation a) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities, if any) controlled by the Bank. The Bank controls an entity if it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with th e entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The Bank reassesses whether it has control if there are changes to one or more of the elements of control. The financial statements of subsidiaries are fully consolida ted with those of the Bank from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases. b) Non-controlling interests Non-controlling interests are the proportionate share of income and shareholders’ equity of the subsidiaries, which do not belong to the Bank and are included as a separate line in the Consolidated Statements of profit or loss, of Comprehensive Income, of Financial Position and of changes in shareholders’ equity. c) Trusts The Bank acts as trustee for a number of trusts. T he Bank considers the purpose and design of the trust so as to identify its relevant activities, how decisions about such activities are made, who has the current ability to direct those activities, and who receives returns therefrom. In case the Bank has decision-making power over the trust, determines whether it acts as a principal or as an agent of a third party. The Bank has concluded that it does not have control over any of these trusts. d) Investment funds A subsidiary of the Bank acts as fund manage r to a number of investment funds. Determining whether the Bank controls such an investment fund usually focuses on the assessment of the aggregate economic interests of the Bank in the fund (comprising any carried interests and expected management fees) a nd considers that investors have no right to remove the fund manager without cause. In cases where the economic interest share is less than 37%, the Bank concludes its subsidiary acts as an agent for the investors and therefore does not consolidate those f unds. e) Loss of control When the Bank loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any related non-controlling interest and other components of equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Any interest retained in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost. f) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-Group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-Group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Foreign Currency | Foreign currency Transactions in foreign currencies are translate d into the respective functional currency of Bank entities at the spot exchange rates published by the BCRA at the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at th e spot exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the spot exchange rate at the date on which the fair value is determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the spot exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences arising from translation are recognized in profit or loss. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Cash and Cash Equivalents | Ca sh and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and bank deposits, balances with central banks and balances with no restrictions kept with the BCRA and on-demand accounts held at financial institutions that are subject to an insignificant r isk of changes in their fair value and are used by the Bank in the management of its short-term commitments. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Financial Assets and Liabilities | Financial assets and liabilities a) Recognition The Bank initially recognizes loans, deposits, debt securities issued and liabilities on the date on which they are originated. All other financial instruments (including ordinary course purchases and sales of financial assets) are recognized on the trade date, which is the date when the Bank becomes party to the contractual provisions of the inst rument. The Bank recognizes purchases of financial instruments with the commitment to resell at a certain price as a loan granted in the line “Reverse repurchase agreements” in the Consolidated statement of financial position. The difference between the pu rchase and sale prices of those instruments is recorded as interest accrued during the term of the transactions using the effective interest method. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Instruments not measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) are recognized at fair value plus (in the case of assets) or less (in the case of liabilities) the transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset or the issuance of the liability. The transaction price is usually the best evidence of fair value for initial recognition. However, if the Bank determines that the fair value at initial recognition is different than the consideration received or paid, when the fair value is in hierarchies 1 or 2, the financial instrument is initially recognized at fair value and the difference is recognized in profit or loss. If the fair value at initial recognition is hierarchy 3, the difference between the fair value and the consideration is deferred in the term of the instrument. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Financial Assets and Liabilities applicable from January 1, 2018 | Financial assets and liabilities b) Policy applicable from January 1, 2018 Classification of financial assets On initial recognition, financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost, fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions: The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and T he contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”) on the principal amount outstanding. A debt instrument is measured at FVOCI only if it meets both of the following conditions an d is not designated as at FVTPL: The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI on the principal amount outstanding. On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Bank may elect to, for each individual instrument, present subsequent changes in fair value in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). All other financial assets are classified as measured at FVTPL. This category includes derivative financial instruments. Classification of financial liabilities The Bank classifies its financial liabilities, other than derivatives, financial guarantees a nd li abilities at fair value through profit or loss as measured at amortized cost . Financial liabilities held for trading and derivative financial instruments are measured at FVTPL. ‘Financial guarantees’ are contracts that require the Bank to make specified pa yments to reimburse the holder for a loss that it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when it is due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantees issued are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently are measured at the higher of this amortized amount and the present value of any expected payment to settle the liability when a payment under the contract has become probable. Business model assessment The Bank makes an assessment of the objective of a b usiness model in which an asset is held at a portfolio level because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes: The stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice, How the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Bank’s management, The risks that affect the performance of the business model and how those risks are managed, How managers of the business are compensated – e.g. whether compensation is based on the fair value of the assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected; and The frequency, volume and timing of sales in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and its expectations about fut ure sales activity. However, information about sales activity is not considered in isolation, but as part of an overall assessment of how the Bank’s stated objective for managing the financial assets is achieved and how cash flows are realized. Financial a ssets that are held for trading or managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL because they are neither held to collect contractual cash flows nor held both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell financial assets. Assessment of whether contractual cash flows are SPPI For the purpose of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money an d for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs as well as profit margin. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making the assessment, the Bank considers: Contingent events that would change the amount and timing of cash flows; Leverage features; Prepayment and extension terms; Terms that’s limit the Bank´s claim to cash flows from specified assets; and Features that modify consideration of the time value of money (e.g. periodical reset of interest rate). Reclassification Financial assets are not r eclassified after their initial recognition, except for a change in the Bank's business models. Measurement at amortized cost The amortized cost of a financial asset or liability is the amount of its initial recognition less the capital reimbursements, p lus or less the amortization, using the effective interest method, of any difference between the initial amount and the amount at maturity. In the case of financial assets, it also includes any impairment. Modifications of financial assets and financial li abilities i) Financial assets If the terms of a financial asset are modified, then the Bank evaluates whether the cash flows of the modified asset are substantially different. If the cash flows are substantially different, then the contractual rights to ca sh flows from the original financial asset are deemed to have expired. In this case, the original financial asset is derecognised and a new financial asset is recognised at fair value plus any eligible transaction costs. Any fees received as part of the mo dification are accounted for as follows: Fees that are considered in determining the fair value of the new asset and fees that represent reimbursement of eligible transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the asset; and Other fees are included in profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on derecognition. If cash flows are modified when the borrower is in financial difficulties, then the objective of the modification is usually to maximise recovery of the original contractual terms ra ther than to originate a new asset with substantially different terms. If the Bank plans to modify a financial asset in a way that would result in forgiveness of cash flows, then it first considers whether a portion of the asset should be written off befor e the modification takes place. This approach impacts the result of the quantitative evaluation and the derecognition criteria are not usually met in such cases. If the modification of a financial asset measured at amortised cost or FVOCI does not result i n derecognition of the financial asset, then the Bank first recalculates the gross carrying amount of the financial asset using the original effective interest rate of the asset and recognises the resulting adjustment as a modification gain or loss in prof it or loss. For floating-rate financial assets, the original effective interest rate used to calculate the modification gain or loss is adjusted to reflect current market terms at the time of the modification. Any costs or fees incurred and fees received a s part of the modification adjust the gross carrying amount of the modified financial asset and are amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial asset. If such a modification is carried out because of financial difficulties of the borrower, then the gain or loss is presented together with impairment losses. In other cases, it is presented as interest income calculated using the effective interest rate method. ii) Financial liabilities The Bank derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability d erecognised and consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss. Consideration paid includes non-financial assets transferred, if any, and the assumption of liabilities, including the new modified financial liability. If the modification of a financial liability is not accounted for as derecognition, then the amortised cost of the liability is recalculated by discounting the modified cash flows at the original effective interest rate and the resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. For flo ating-rate financial liabilities, the original effective interest rate used to calculate the modification gain or loss is adjusted to reflect current market terms at the time of the modification. Any costs and fees incurred are recognised as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the liability and amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial liability by re-computing the effective interest rate on the instrument. Impairment of financial assets The IFRS 9 impairment model is applied to financial assets valued at amortized cost and to financial assets valued at fair value with changes in other comprehensive income, except for investments in equity instruments. Likewise, all the financial instruments valued at fair value with ch ange through profit and loss are excluded from the impairment model. The new standard classifies financial instruments into three categories, which depend on the evolution of their credit risk from the moment of initial recognition. The first category incl udes the transactions initially recognized, with no significant increase in credit risk and not impaired (Stage 1); the second comprises the financial assets for which a significant increase in credit risk has been identified since its initial recognition (Stage 2) and the third one, the impaired financial assets (Stage 3). The calculation of the allowances for credit risk in each of these three categories are done differently. In this way, expected loss up to 12 months for the financial assets classified i n the first of the aforementioned categories are recorded, while expected losses estimated for the remaining life of the financial assets classified in the other two categories are recorded. Thus, IFRS 9 differentiates between the following concepts of exp ected loss: Expected loss at 12 months: expected credit loss that arises from possible default events within 12 months following the presentation date of the financial statements; and Expected loss during the life of the transaction: this is the expecte d credit loss that arises from all possible default events over the remaining life of the financial instrument. All this requires considerable judgment, both in the modeling for the estimation of the expected losses and in the forecasts, on how the economi c factors affect such losses, which must be carried out on a weighted probability basis. The Bank has applied the following definitions in accordance with IFRS 9: Default BBVA Francés has applied a definition of default for financial instruments that is c onsistent with that used in internal credit risk management, as well as the indicators under applicable regulation at the date of implementation of IFRS 9. Both qualitative and quantitative indicators have been considered. In accordance with IFRS 9, the 90 -day past-due stipulation may be waived in cases where the Bank considers it appropriate, based on reasonable and documented information that it is appropriate to use a longer term. As of December 31, 2018, the Bank has not considered periods superior to 9 0 days for any of the significant portfolios. Credit impaired asset An asset is credit-impaired according to IFRS 9 if one or more events have occurred and they have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. Evidence that a fin ancial asset is credit-impaired includes observable data about the following events: Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower. A breach of contract (e.g. a default or past due event). A lender having granted a concession to the borrow er – for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty – that the lender would not otherwise consider. It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization. It may not be possible to identify a single discrete event. Instead, the combined effect of several events may cause financial assets to become credit-impaired. The definition of impaired financial assets in the Bank is aligned with the definition of default explained in the abo ve paragraphs. Significant increase in credit risk The objective of the impairment requirements is to recognize lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments for which there have been significant increases in credit risk since initial recognit ion considering all reasonable and supportable information, including that which is forward-looking. The model developed by the Bank for assessing the significant increase in credit risk has a two-prong approach: Quantitative criterion: the Bank uses a quantitative analysis based on comparing the current expected probability of default over the life of the transaction with the original adjusted expected probability of default, so that both values are comparable in terms of expected default probability for their residual life. The thresholds used for considering a significant increase in risk take into account special cases according to geographic areas and portfolios. Depending on how old current operations are, at the time implementation of the standard, some simplification has been made to compare the probabilities of default between the current and the original moment, based on the best information available at that moment. Qualitative criterion: most indicators f or detecting significant risk increase are included in the Bank's systems through rating/scoring systems or macroeconomic scenarios, so quantitative analysis covers the majority of circumstances. The Bank will use additional qualitative criteria when it co nsiders it necessary to include circumstances that are not reflected in the rating/score systems or macroeconomic scenarios used. Additionally, instruments under one of the following main circumstances are considered Stage 2 (Qualitative criterion): More than 30 days past due. According to IFRS 9, default of more than 30 days is a presumption that can be rebutted in those cases in which the Bank considers, based on reasonable and documented information, that such non-payment does not represent a significan t increase in risk. The Bank has not considered periods superior to 30 days for any of the significant portfolios. Watch list: They are subject to special watch by the Risks units because they show negative signs in their credit quality, even though there may be no objective evidence of impairment. Refinance or restructuring that does not show evidence of impairment. Thus the classification of financial instruments subject to impairment under IFRS 9 is as follows: – Stage 1– without significant increase in credit risk Financial assets which are not considered to have significantly increased in credit risk since its initial recognition, have the allowances for loan losses measured at an amount equal to 12 months expected credit losses (ECL). – Stage 2– signi ficant increases in credit risk When there is a significant increase in credit risk, the financial asset is transferred to this category in which the allowance for loan losses is calculated as the ECL during the entire life of the asset. – Stage 3 – Impaired When there is objective evidence that the instrument is credit impaired, the financial asset is transferred to this category in which the allowances for losses of that financial instrument is calculated as the expected credit loss during the entir e life of the asset. Method for calculating ECL under IFRS 9 In accordance with IFRS 9, the measurement of ECL must reflect: A considered and unbiased amount, determined by evaluating a range of possible results. The time value of money. Reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort and that reflects current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Bank measures the ECL both individually and collectively. The purpose of the Bank's individual measurement is to estimate expected losses for significant impaired instruments. In these cases, the amount of credit losses is calculated as the difference between expected discounted cash flows at the effective interest rate of the tran saction and the carrying amount of the instrument. To establish which and how many clients need to be analyzed individually, the Bank adopts the criteria defined by the BBVA Group, which is a relative weight in terms of total risk over the defaulted total risk of wholesale exposure and in term of total risk over the Watch List total risk of wholesale exposure. In addition to that calculation, an expert adjustment has been made downwards of these thresholds. The scope for individual analysis is defined with the following criteria to analyze all clients with at least an asset in default and with total risk above the local threshold (Ps. 3,000,000) or with at least an asset in Watch List (WL) with total risk above the local threshold (Ps. 5,000,000), meaning: a) Stage 3 and Total Risk > Ps. 3,000,000; b) Stage 2, WL and Total Risk > Ps. 5,000,000 Threshold for Defaulted exposure : The threshold is established in such a way that the clients with total risk above this threshold are assessed individually for at least 40% of the total risk of the defaulted wholesale portfolio. Threshold for Watch List exposure : The threshold is established in such a way that the clients with total risk above this threshold are assessed individually for at least 20% of the total ri sk of the Watch List wholesale portfolio. For the collective measurement of expected losses the instruments are grouped into groups of assets based on their risk characteristics. Exposure within each group is segmented according to the common credit risk c haracteristics, which are indicative of the payment capacity of the borrower in accordance with their contractual conditions. These risk characteristics have to be relevant in estimating the future flows of each group. The characteristics of credit risk ma y consider, among others, the following factors: Type of instrument. Rating or scoring tools. Type of collateral. Period of time at default for stage 3. Segment. Qualitative criteria which can have a significant increase in risk. ECL are derived from the following parameters: PD: estimate of the probability of default in each period. EAD: estimate of the exposure in case of default at each future period, taking into account the changes in exposure after the presentation date of the financial statements. L GD: estimate of the loss in case of default, calculated as the difference between the contractual cash flows and receivables, including guarantees. In the case of debt securities, the LDP (Low Default Portfolio) methodology that is used has parameters based on external ratings. Use of present, past and future information IFRS 9 requires incorporation of present, past and future information to detect any significant increase in risk and measure the expected loss. The standard does not require identificat ion of all possible scenarios for measuring expected loss. However, the probability of a loss event occurring and the probability it will not occur will also have to be considered, even though the possibility of a loss may be very small. Also, when there i s no linear relation between the different future economic scenarios and their associated expected losses, more than one future economic scenario must be used for the measurement. The approach used by the Bank consists of using first the most probable sce nario (baseline scenario) consistent with that used in the Bank's internal management processes, and then applying an additional adjustment, calculated by considering the weighted average of expected losses in other economic scenarios (one more positive an d the other more negative). The main macroeconomic variable in each of the scenarios is Gross Domestic Product. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Financial Assets and Liabilities applicable before January 1, 2018 | Financial assets and liabilities c) Policy applicable before January 1, 2018 Classification of financial assets The Bank classified its financial assets into one of the following categories: Loan and receivables; Held-to-maturity: Available-for-sale; and At FVTPL, and within this category as: a) held-for-trading or b) designed as at FVTPL. Classification of financial liabi lities The Bank classified its financial liabilities, other than derivatives, financial guarantees and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss as measured at amortized cost. Modifications of financial assets and financial liabilities a) Financial assets If the terms of a financial asset were modified, then the Bank evaluated whether the cash flows of the modified asset were substantially different. If the cash flows were substantially different, then the contractual rights to cash flows from the or iginal financial asset were deemed to have expired. In this case, the original financial asset was derecognised and a new financial asset was recognised at fair value. If the terms of a financial asset were modified because of financial difficulties of th e borrower and the asset was not derecognised, then impairment of the asset was measured using the pre-modification interest rate. b) Financial liabilities The Bank derecognised a financial liability when its terms were modified and the cash flows of the m odified liability were substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms was recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and consideration paid was recognised in profit or loss. Consideration paid included non-financial assets transferred, if any, and the assumption of liabilities, including the new modified financial liability. If the modification of a financial liability was not accounted for as derecognition, then any costs and fees incurred were recognised as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the liability and amortised over the remaining term of the modified financial liability by re-computing the effective interest rate on the instrument . Impairment of financial assets A financial asset was considered impaired – and therefore its carrying amount was adjusted to reflect the effect of impairment – when there were objective evidence that events have occurred, which: In the case of debt instr uments (loans and accounts receivable and debt securities), reduced the future cash flows that were estimated at the time the instruments when initially recognized. So they were considered impaired when there were reasonable doubts that the carrying amount s would be recovered in full and/or the related interest would be collected for the amounts and on the dates initially agreed. In the case of equity instruments, it meant that their carrying amount may not be fully recovered. As a general rule, the carryin g amount of impaired financial assets was adjusted with a charge to the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year in which the impairment become known. The recoveries of previously recognized impairment losses were reflected, if appropriate, in the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year in which the impairment was reversed or reduced, with an exception: any recovery of previously recognized impairment losses for an investment in an equity instrument classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income was not recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, but under the heading "Other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - financial assets at fair value throu gh other comprehensive income " in the Consolidated statement of other comprehensive income. In general, amounts collected on impaired loans and receivables were used to recognize the related accrued interest and any excess amount was used to reduce the un paid principal. When the recovery of any recognized amount was considered remote, such amount was written-off on the consolidated statement of financial position, without prejudice to any actions that may be taken in order to collect the amount until the rights extinguish in full either because it was time-barred debt, the debt was forgiven, or other reasons. Method for calculating the impairment on financial assets under IAS 39 The impairment on financial assets was determined by type of instrument and other circumstances that could affect it, taking into account the guarantees received to assure (in part or in full) the performance of the financial assets. Impairment of debt instruments measured at amortized cost T he Bank developed policies, methods and procedures to estimate incurred losses on outstanding credit risk. These policies, methods and procedures applied in the due diligence, approval and execution of debt instruments and commitments and guarantees given; as well as in identifying the impairment and, where appropriate, in calculating the amounts necessary to cover estimated losses. The amount of impairment losses on debt instruments measured at amortized cost was calculated based on whether the impairment losses are determined individually or collectively. First it was determined whether there was objective evidence of impairment individually for individually significant debt instrument, and collectively for debt instrument that were not individually signif icant. If the Bank determined that there were no objective evidence of impairment, the assets were classified in groups of debt instrument based on similar risk characteristics and impairment was assessed collectively. In determining whether there is objec tive evidence of impairment the Bank used observable data in the following aspects: Significant financial difficulties of the obligors. Ongoing delays in the payment of interest or principal. Refinancing of credit due to financial difficulties by the count erparty. Bankruptcy or reorganization / liquidation are considered likely. Disappearance of the active market for a financial asset because of financial difficulties. Observable data indicating a reduction in future cash flows from the initial recognition such as adverse changes in the payment status of the counterparty (delays in payments, reaching credit cards limits, etc.). National or local economic conditions that are linked to "defaults" in the financial assets (unemployment rate, falling property pri ces, etc.). Impairment losses on financial assets individually evaluated for impairment The amount of the impairment losses incurred on financial assets represented the excess of their respective carrying amounts over the present values of their expected future cash flows. These cash flows were discounted using the original effective interest rate. If a financial asset had a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss was the current effective rate determined under the contract. As an exception to the rule described above, the market value of listed debt instruments was deemed to be a fair estimate of the present value of their expected future cash flows. The following was to be taken into consideration when estimating the future cash flows of debt instruments: All amounts expected to be recovered over the remaining life of the debt instrument; including, where appropriate, those which m ay result from the collateral and other credit enhancements provided for the debt instrument (after deducting the costs required for foreclosure and subsequent sale). Impairment losses included an estimate for the possibility of collecting accrued, past-du e and uncollected interest. The various types of risk to which each debt instrument was subject. The circumstances in which collections would foreseeably be made. Impairment losses on financial assets collectively evaluated for impairment With regard to th e collective impairment analysis, financial assets were grouped by risk type considering the debtor's capacity to pay based on the contractual terms. As part of this analysis, the Bank estimated the impairment loan losses that were not individually signifi cant, distinguishing between those that showed objective evidence of impairment, and those that did not show objective evidence of impairment, as well as the impairment of significant loans that the Bank deemed as not showing an objective evidence of impai rment. With respect to financial assets that had no objective evidence of impairment, the Bank applied statistical methods using historical experience and other specific information to estimate the losses that the Bank incurred as a result of events that h ad occurred as of the date of preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements but had not been known and would be apparent, individually after the date of submission of the information. This calculation was an intermediate step until these losses were identified on an individual level, at which time these financial instruments would be segregated from the portfolio of financial assets without objective evidence of impairment. The incurred loss was calculated taking into account three key factors: expos ure at default, probability of default and loss given default. Exposure at default (EAD) is the amount of risk exposure at the date of default by the counterparty. Probability of default (PD) is the probability of the counterparty failing to meet its princ ipal and/or interest payment obligations. The PD is associated with the rating/scoring of each counterparty/transaction. Loss given default (LGD) is the estimate of the loss arising in the event of default. It depends mainly on the characteristics of the counterparty, and the valuation of the guarantees or collateral associated with the asset. In order to calculate the LGD at each reporting date, the Bank evaluated the whole amount expected to be obtained over the remaining life of the financial asset. In addition, to identify the possible incurred but not reported losses (IBNR) in the unimpaired portfolio, an additional parameter called "LIP" (loss identification period) had to be introduced. The LIP parameter is the period between the time at which the e vent that generates a given loss occurs and the time when the loss is identified at an individual level. When the property right was contractually acquired at the end of the foreclosure process or when the assets of distressed borrowers were purchased, th e asset was recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position. Impairment of other debt instruments classified as available for sale The impairment losses on other debt instruments classified as “Available-for-sale financial asset” portfolio were equal to the excess of their acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment), after deducting any impairment loss previously recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss over their fair value. When there was objective evidence that th e negative differences arising on measurement of these debt instruments were due to impairment, they were no longer considered as “Other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income” and were recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. If all, or part of the impairment losses were subsequently recovered, the amount was recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the year in whic h the recovery occurred, up to the amount previously recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Investments in Joint Ventures and Associates | Investments in joint ventures and associates An associate is an entity over which the Bank has a significant influence but no control over its financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Bank holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting power of another entity. A joint venture is an arrangement in whic h the Group has joint control whereby the Group has rights to the net assets of the arrangement rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities. They are initially recognized at cost, which includes transaction costs. Investments in as sociates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The consolidated financial statements include the Bank’s share of the income and expenses and equity movements of equity accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting p olicies with those of the Bank, from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence ceases. When the Bank’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying amount of that interest, including any long-term investments, is reduced to nil, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Bank has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Property and Equipment | Property and equipmen t Property and equipment items are measured at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost includes the cash purchase price and expenses directly attributable to the acquisition necessary to take the asset to t he location and operate as provided for by the Board of Directors. The Bank elected to apply the optional exemption to use fair value of real estate as deemed cost at January 1, 2017, the date of transition (see Note 2.2). Fair value was determined based on the appraisal carried out by an independent valuation specialist, applying a market approach valuation technique. If significant parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major comp onents) of property and equipment. Any gains or loss on disposal of an item of property and equipment are recognized net within other income in profit or loss. Subsequent expenses are only capitalized if they are likely to provide future economic benefits for the Bank. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives, and is recognized in profit or loss in the heading “Depreciation and amortization” on the st atement of profit or loss. The estimated useful lives of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows: Buildings: as informed in the technical appraisal as of January 1, 2017 Furniture and facilities: 10 years Equipment: 3-5 years Automobiles: 5 years Depreciation methods and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively, if necessary. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Investment Property | Investment properties Investment properties are measured at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost includes the cash purchase price and expenses directly attributable to the acquisition necessary to take the asset to the location and operate as provided for by the Board of Directors. The Bank elected to apply the optional exemption to use fair value as deemed cost at January 1, 2017, the date of transition (see Note 2.2). Fair value was determined based on the appraisal carried out by an independent valuation specialist, applying a mar ket approach valuation technique. Any gains or loss on disposal of investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognized in profit or loss. When the use of a property ch anges such that it is reclassified as property and equipment, its fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Intangible Assets | Intangible assets Intangible assets include the information systems costs of acquisition and impl ementation, which are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairments, if any. Subsequent expenses related to information systems are only capitalized if the economic benefits of the related asset increase. All other expenses are recognized as incurred. Information systems are amortized using the straight line method over their estimated useful life of 5 years and is recognized in profit or loss in the heading “Depreciation and amortization” on the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Am ortization methods and the estimated useful life are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively, if necessary. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Goodwill | Goodwill As detailed in Note 2.2, the Bank has decided not to apply IFRS 3 retrospectively to past business combinations. Goodwill balance as of January 1, 2017 corresponds to the carrying amount in accordance with BCRA GAAP. No further goodwill has been recognized since the IFRS 1 transition date. Goodwill is not amortized but subject to an annual test for impairment. The ca sh generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated, is tested for impairment (including goodwill) at least annually or more frequently if there is an indication of impairment. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Other Assets | Other assets Foreclosed assets Foreclosed assets are measured at the lower of the fair value of the date on which the Bank receives the ownership of the asset, and the fair value less cost of disposal at the reporting date. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Non-current Assets Held for Sale | Non- current assets held-for-sale Assets are classified as held-for-sale if it is highly likely that they will be recovered, mainly through their sale, which is estimated to occur within the twelve months following the date of their classification as such. These assets are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and their fair value less the cost of disposal. Once classified as held-for-sale, property and equipment are no longer depreciated and any equity-accounted investee is no longer equity accounted. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Impairment of Non-financial Assets | Impairment of non-financial assets At each reporting date, the Bank assesses wheth er there are indications that a non-financial asset may be impaired (except deferred tax assets). If there is such an indication, the asset's recoverable value is estimated. For the impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group o f assets that generates cash inflows for their continued use that is largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or other cash generating units (CGU). Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that ar e expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. The “recoverable value” of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less the cost of sale. “Value in use” is based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at their present value using the pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverabl e amount. An impairment loss for goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent the carrying amount of the assets does not exceed the amount they would have been determined if the impairment loss had not been recognized. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Provisions | Provisions The Bank recognizes a provision if and only if the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation resulting from past events; it is probable (i.e. more likely than not) that an outflow of resources will be required to set tle the obligation; and the amount payable can be estimated reliably. To assess provisions, the existing risks and uncertainties were considered, taking into consideration the opinion of the Bank's external and internal legal advisors. Based on the analysi s carried out, the Bank recognizes a provision for the amount considered as the best estimate of the potential expense necessary to settle the present obligation at each reporting date. The provisions recognized by the Bank are reviewed at each reporting d ate and are adjusted to reflect the best estimate available. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Employee Benefits | Employee benefits a) Short term personnel benefits Short-term personnel benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided b y the personnel and the obligation can be estimated reliably. b) Other long term personnel benefits The Bank's obligation in relation to long term personnel benefits is the amount of the future benefit the employees have earned in exchange for services pro vided during the current and prior periods. The benefit is discounted at present value. Remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss. c) Termination benefits Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Bank can no longer withdraw the offe r of those benefits and when the Bank recognizes costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date, then they are discounted. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Share Capital | Share capital Transaction costs directly attributable to t he issuance of ordinary shares are recognized as a reduction of the contributions received, net of the related income tax. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Interest Income and Expenses | Interest income and expenses Interest income and expenses are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate me thod. The ʻeffective interest rate’ is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments and collections during the expected lifetime of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial assets; or the amortized cost of th e financial liability. The calculation of the effective interest rate includes transaction costs, commissions and other items paid or received that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are di rectly attributable to the acquisition of a financial asset or the issuance of a financial liability. The ‘amortized cost’ of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured on initial recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount and, for financial assets, adjusted for any expected credit los s allowance. The ‘gross carrying amount of a financial asset’ is the amortized cost of a financial asset before adjusting for any expected credit loss allowance. In calculating interest income and expense, the effective interest rate is applied to the gros s carrying amount of the asset (when the asset is not credit-impaired) or to the amortized cost of the liability. However, for financial assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated by applying th e effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit-impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis. Interest income and expenses presented in the consolidated statement of p rofit or loss mainly include interest on: Financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost; and Financial assets measured at fair value through OCI |
Description of Accounting Policy for Fee and Commission Income/Expenses | Fee and commission income / expenses This item contains income from commissions resulting f rom transactions with customers, mainly related to maintenance and administration fees on current, saving accounts and credit cards, securities custody and foreign exchange transactions. The breakdown of fee and commission income is presented in Notes 30 and 31 to these financial statements. Commissions, fees and similar items that are part of a financial asset or liability's effective interest rate are included in the effective interest rate. Other commission income is recognized when the related services are performed: at a point in time (in relation to fees for services, fees for investment funds management, sales commissions, syndication fees), or over the performance obligation period (in relation to annual fee for credit cards, issuance of financial g uarantees). The Bank has a customer loyalty program in place consisting in the accumulation of Latam Airlines miles through credit and/or debit card consumptions that can be exchanged for air tickets, catalog products and hotel accommodation. This program is a separable performance obligation in the contract with the customer. The Bank has concluded that it is acting as an agent in relation to the airline miles and consequently, the allocated transaction price consists only of the commission net of the amou nts paid to the principal (Latam Airlines). Commission expenses are recognized in profit or loss when the related service is received. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Leases | Leases a) Arrangements containing a lease At the inception of the arrangement, the Bank determines if the arrangem ent contains a lease, in which case lease payments are separated into those related with the lease and those for other elements, based on relative fair values. b) Classification of a lease When the lease substantially transfers the risks and rewards of the ownership of the leased asset, it is classified as a financial lease. Otherwise, the lease is classified as an operating lease. c) Leases where the Bank is the lessee Payments under an operating lease are recognized in profit or loss by applying the stra ight line method over the term of the lease. Leased assets are not recognized in the Consolidated statement of financial position. d) Leases where the Bank is the lessor Except for real estate, the leased asset in an operating lease is classified as “Other assets” and depreciated over its estimated useful life. Real estate for lease is classified as “Investment Properties” (see Note 5.7). Collections received under an oper ating lease are recognized in profit or loss by applying the straight line method in the term of the lease. The leased asset in a financial lease is derecognized and a receivable is recognized for the amount of the net investment in the lease and presented within “Loans and advances to customers”. Collections received under a financial lease are separated into interest and the reduction of the lease's net investment. Interest income is recognized over the lease term applying the interest rate implicit in th e lease. Contingent lease payments are not included in the net investment of the lease. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Current and Deferred Income Tax | Current and deferred income tax Income tax expense includes the current income tax and the deferred income tax and is recognized in profit or loss , except to the extent it relates to an item recognized in OCI or directly in equity. a) Current taxes Current income tax includes the income tax payable, and any adjustment to the tax payable related to previous years. The current amount of tax payable i s the best estimate of the amount that is expected to be paid measured at the applicable tax rate enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date. b) Deferred tax Deferred income tax recognizes the tax effect of temporary differences between the ca rrying amounts of the assets and liabilities and the related tax bases used for tax purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for: Temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in transaction that is not a business combination a nd that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Temporary differences related to investment in subsidiaries to the extent that is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for the tax effect of all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is proba ble that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. Future taxable profits are determined based on business plans for the Bank and each of its subsidiaries. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduc ed to the extent that is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and reco gnized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will be available against which they can be used. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, using tax ra tes enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Bank expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are meet. |
Description of Accounting Policy for Segment Reporting | Segment reporting An operating segment is a component of the Bank that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with any of the Bank’s other components, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Bank’s chief op erating decision maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. Segment results that are reported to the Bank’s CEO (being the CODM) inclu de items that are directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate assets (primarily the Bank’s headquarters), head office expenses and tax assets and liabilities. |

Effect of Transition of BCRA GAAP to IFRS-IASB Abstract | ||
First Time Adoption of IFRS-IASB | Until December 31, 2017 the Bank prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with rules prescribed or permitted by Argentina Central Bank (“BCRA GAAP”). The Bank followed the provisions of IFRS 1, “First Time Adoption of IFRS”, in preparing its consolidated statement of financial pos ition as of the date of transition, January 1, 2017. Certain of the Bank’s IFRS -IASB accounting policies used for this opening consolidated statement of financial position differed from BCRA GAAP policies applied at the same date. The resulting adjustments arose from events and transactions before the date of transition to IFRS -IASB . Therefore, as required by IFRS 1, those adjustments were recognized directly through retained earnings (or another category of equity where appropriate) as of January 1, 2017. This is the effect of the general rule of IFRS 1 which is to apply IFRS -IASB retrospectively. There are some exceptions required and some exemptions permitted by IFRS 1. The Group applied the following exemptions allowed by IFRS 1: a) Considered the fair value of its real estate as of January 1, 2017 as deemed cost at that date; b) Decided not to apply IFRS 3 retrospectively to past business combinations. The carrying amount of goodwill as of January 1, 2017 corresponds to the amount at that date in accor dance with BCRA GAAP and; c) Decided to apply the requirements of IFRS 9 (issued in 2014) as from January 1, 2018. For comparative information, the Group has applied IAS 39. The impact of this change in accounting policy is explained in Note 2.3. | |
Changes in Accounting Policies - Adoption of IFRS 9 | As mentioned in the Note 5.4.b) , IFRS 9 replaced IAS 39 for financial statements from January 1, 2018 onwards . The main changes between these two standards relate to the classification of financial assets , the introduction of the expected credit loss model to determine impairment of financial assets. The application of t his standard on January 1, 2018, had a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Bank at that date. The Group reassessed the classification of its financial assets and liabilities and concluded that: Loans and receivables: all instruments under this classification under IAS 39 fulfil the requirements of IFRS 9 to be classified as financial assets at amortized cost. Held-to-maturity: all instruments under this classification under IAS 39 fulfil the requirements of IFRS 9 to be classified as financial assets at amortized cost. Available-for-sale: all instruments under this classifica tion under IAS 39 fulfil the requirements of IFRS 9 to be classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. At fair value through profit and loss: remains unchanged. However, regarding impairment, the Group has determined in accordance with IFRS 9, that the allowance for loan losses and provision for financial guarantees and loan commitments are 1,036,297 higher than the allowance determined in accordance with IAS 39 and the provision under IAS 37 as of January 1, 2018. The pe rtinent adjustment, net of the related income tax effect of 310,889, has been recorded in Equity, in the line Retained earnings. Comparative information was not restated. |

Unit of Account Abstract | |
Unit of Account Under IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies | IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies requires an entity whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy, to state the assets, liabilities, income and expenses in terms of the measuring unit current at the reporting period. An economy is considered to be a hyperinflationary economy when, among other criteria, it has cumulative inflation of approximately 100% or more over a 3-year period. The Bank ’s management took into account the increase in the levels of inflation suffered by the Argentine economy in the first months of 2018, applied the parameters established by IAS 29 and agreed with the consensus reached among local and international accounting standards that the Argentine economy should be considered as hyperinflationary. Consequently, IAS 29 has been applied to financial information prepared as from July 1, 2018. Additionally, the Bank ’s management agreed with the b asis for conclusions and consequently followed the guidance issued by Argentine accounting standards setters by which the “general price index” for IAS 29 purposes is determined considering the Wholesale price index (WPI) through December 31, 2016 and the Consumer price index (CPI) beginning on January 1, 2017 and onwards. These indexes are published by the National Institute of Statistics and Census (INDEC). The general price index has increased 47.65% during 2018 and 24.80% during 2017. Under IAS 29 asset s and liabilities not already expressed in terms of the measuring unit current at the end of the reporting period are adjusted by applying a g eneral price index. The adjusted amount of a non-monetary item is reduced, in accordance with IFRS-IASB , when it e xceeds its recoverable amount. The impact of implementation of IAS 29 at the beginning of the first period of application is recognized in equity. All items in the statement of comprehensive income are expressed in terms of the measuring unit current at th e end of the reporting period. The gain or loss on the net monetary position is included in the Consolidated Statement of profit or loss . Since the Bank prepares its financial information based on a historical cost approach, it has applied IAS 29 as follow s: Restated the Consolidated statement of financial position as of January 1, 2017, which is the earliest financial information presented. Restated the Consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2017. Restated the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and Consolidated statements of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2017, including the calculation and sepa rate disclosure of the gain or loss on the net monetary position. Adjusted the Consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2018. Adjusted the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and Consolidated statements of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2018, including the calculation and separate disclosure of the gain or loss on the net monetary position. In order to app ly IAS 29 to the Consolidated statement of financial position , the Bank has applied the following methodology and criteria: Non-monetary items ha ve been restated by applying the general price index. The restated amount s ha ve been reduced to their recoverable value by applying the pertinent IFRS, if necessary. Monetary items ha ve not been restated. Assets and liabilities linked by agreement to changes in prices, such as index linked bonds and loans, have been measured in accordance with the perti nent agreement. The measurement of Investments accounted for under the equity method, have been determined based on financial information of the associate s and joint ventures prepared in accordance with IAS 29. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities ha ve been recalculated based on the restated amounts. As of January 1, 2017 all equity components, except retained earnings, have been restated by applying the general price index from the dates the components were contributed or otherwise arose. In subseque nt periods, all equity components have been restated by applying the general price index from the beginning of the period or the date of contribution, if later. In order to apply IAS 29 to the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, the Consolidated sta tement of c omprehensive i ncome and the Consolidated statement of cash flows , the Bank has been applied the following methodology and criteria: All items in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss, Consolidated statement of c omprehensive i ncome and Con solidated statement of cash flows have been expressed in terms of the measuring unit current at December 31, 2018. The gain or loss on the net monetary position is included in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss . The gain or loss generated by ca sh and cash equivalents is presented in the Consolidated statement of cash flows separately from cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a specific item in the reconciliation between cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and a t the end of the period. |

Description of Expected Impact of Initial Application Of New Standards or Interpretations LineItems | |
Title of New IFRS | IFRS 16 - "Leases" |
Description of Nature of Impending Change in Accounting Policy | On January 13, 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 which will replace IAS 17 “Leases” for financial statements from January 1, 2019 onwards. The new standard introduces a single lessee accounting model and will require a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases. The only exceptions are short-term contracts and those in which the underlying assets have low value. A lessee will be required to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. In relation to lessor accounting, IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor will continue to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and account for those two types of leases differently. The Group has carried out a project to implement IFRS 16 with the participation of all affected areas. The standard will mainly affect the accounting of operating leases of the Group. |
Discussion of Impact that Initial Application of IFRS is Expected to Have on Financial Statements | With regard to the estimated impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements at the transition date, the Group has decided to apply the modified retrospective method that consists of recognizing lease liabilities for an amount equivalent to the present value of the future payments committed as of January 1, 2019 As a result of this approach, the Group expects to recognize assets for right of use and lease liabilities for an approximate amount of 1,857 million pesos, mainly from office leases in its branch network. The impacts of adopting the standard as of January 1, 2019 may change because: The Group has not completed all the tests; and The new accounting policies, methodologies and parameters may be subject to modifications until the Group presents its first financial statements that include the definitive impact at the date of initial application. |

Title of New IFRS | IFRIC 23 - Uncertainty about treatment of income tax |
Description of Nature of Impending Change in Accounting Policy | The Interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements of IAS 12 when there is uncertainty about the treatment of income taxes. |
Discussion of Impact that Initial Application of IFRS is Expected to Have on Financial Statements | If the Group considers that the tax authority is likely to accept uncertain tax treatment, the Interpretation requires the Group to determine the fiscal profit (tax loss), the tax bases, the unused fiscal losses, the tax credits not used or the tax rates taxes consistent with the tax treatment used or that the Group plans to use in its income tax return. If the Group considers that the tax authority is not likely to accept uncertain tax treatment, the Interpretation requires the Group to use the most probable amount or expected value (sum of possible amounts, weighted by probability) to determine fiscal gain ( fiscal loss), tax bases, unused fiscal losses, tax credits not used or tax rates. The method used should be the method that the Group expects to provide the best prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty. Although the interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2019, the Group has decided to early adopt this Interpretation. |

Note 12 - Measurement Expected Credit Loss (ECL) (Details) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2018 | |
Measurement Expected Credit Loss Abstract | |
Risk Parameters Adjusted by Macroeconomic Scenarios | ECL must include forward-looking macroeconomic information. The Bank uses the classical credit risk parameters PD, LGD and EAD in order to calculate the ECL for the credit portfolios. The Bank´s methodological approach in order to incorporate the forward looking information aims to determine the relation between macroeconomic variables and risk parameters following three main steps: Step 1: Analysis and transformation of time series data. Step 2: For each dependent variable find conditional forecasting models that are economically consistent. Step 3: Select the best conditional forecasting model from the set of candidates defined in Step 2, based on their out of sample forecasting performance. |
How Economic Scenarios are Reflected in Calculation of ECL | The forward looking component is added through the introduction of macroeconomic scenarios as an input. Inputs would highly depend on the particular combination of portfolio, so inputs are adapted to available data. Based on economic theory and analysis, the macroeconomic variables most directly relevant for explaining and forecasting the selected risk parameters are: The net income of families, corporates or public administrations. The payment amounts on the principal and interest on the outstanding loans. The Bank approximates these variables by using a proxy indicator from the set included in the macroeconomic scenarios provided by the economic research department. Only a single specific indicator for each of the two variables can be used and only core macroeconomic indicators should be chosen as first choice: for a) using Real GDP Growth can be seen as the single sufficient “factor” required for capturing the influence of all potentially relevant macro-financial scenario on internal PDs ; for b) using the most representative short term interest rate or exchange rates expressed in real terms. Real GDP growth is given priority over any other indicator not only because it is the most comprehensive indicator of income and economic activity but also because it is the central variable in the generation of macroeconomic scenarios. |
Multiple Scenario Approach Under IFRS 9 | IFRS 9 requires calculating an unbiased probability weighted measurement of ECL by evaluating a range of possible outcomes, including forecasts of future economic conditions. The BBVA Research team produces forecasts of the macroeconomic variables under the baseline scenario, which are used in the rest of the related processes of the bank, such as budgeting, the internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP) and risk appetite framework, stress testing, etc. Additionally, the BBVA Research team produces alternative scenarios to the baseline scenario so as to meet the requirements under the IFRS 9 standard. |
Alternative Macroeconomic Scenarios | For each of the macro-financial variables (GDP or interest rate or exchange rate), BBVA Research produces three scenarios. Each of these scenarios corresponds to the expected value of a different area of the probabilistic distribution of the possible projections of the economic variables. The approach of the Bank consists of using the scenario that is the most likely scenario, which is the baseline scenario, consistent with the rest of internal processes (ICAAP, Budgeting) and then applying an upside and downside scenarios by taking into account the weighted average of the ECL determined by each of the scenarios. It is important to note that in general, it is expected that the effect of the overlay is to increase the ECL. It is possible to obtain an overlay that does not have that effect, whenever the relationship between macro scenarios and losses is linear. However, the overlay is not expected to reduce the ECL. |
