PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Accounting Principles

Under Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of July 19, 2002, all companies governed by the law of an EU Member State and whose securities are admitted to trading on a regulated market of any Member State must prepare their consolidated financial statements for the years beginning on or after January 1, 2005 in conformity with EU-IFRS. The Bank of Spain issued Circular 4/2004 of December 22, 2004 on Public and Confidential Financial Reporting Rules and Formats (as amended or supplemented from time to time, “Circular 4/2004”), which requires Spanish credit institutions to adapt their accounting system to the principles derived from the adoption by the European Union of EU-IFRS.

Differences between EU-IFRS required to be applied under the Bank of Spain’s Circular 4/2004 and IFRS-IASB are not material for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016. Accordingly, the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report on Form 6-K have been prepared in accordance with EU-IFRS required to be applied under the Bank of Spain’s Circular 4/2004 and in compliance with IFRS-IASB.

Statistical and Financial Information

The following principles should be noted in reviewing the statistical and financial information contained herein:

| • |  | Average balances, when used, are based on the beginning and the month-end balances during each six-month period. We do not believe that such monthly averages present trends that are materially different from those that would be presented by daily averages.

| • |  | Unless otherwise stated, any reference to loans refers to both loans and advances.

| • |  | Financial information with respect to segments or subsidiaries may not reflect consolidation adjustments.

| • |  | Certain numerical information in this report on Form 6-K may not compute due to rounding. In addition, information regarding period-to-period changes is based on numbers which have not been rounded.

Venezuela

The local financial statements of the Group subsidiaries in Venezuela are expressed in Venezuelan bolivar and converted into euros for purposes of preparing the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Venezuela has strict foreign exchange restrictions and different exchange rates in place.

In past years, we have used different exchange rates to prepare the Group’s consolidated financial statements:

| • |  | Until January 1, 2014, we used the CADIVI exchange rate (named after the acronym, in Spanish, of the Foreign Exchange Administration Commission, currently the National Center for Foreign Trade or CENCOEX). As of December 31, 2013 the exchange rate was 8.68 Venezuelan bolivars per euro.

| • |  | In 2014 the Venezuelan government approved a new exchange rate system referred to as the “foreign-currency system”, in which the exchange rate against the U.S. dollar was determined in an auction which was open to both individuals and companies, resulting in an exchange rate that fluctuated from auction to auction and was published on the website of the Complementary Currency Administration System (SICAD I). Subsequently, in July 2014, the Venezuelan government established a new type of auction called SICAD II only applicable to certain types of transactions and not applicable to credit institutions. As of December 31, 2014 the applicable exchange rate (SICAD I) was 14.71 Venezuelan bolivars per euro. For purposes of preparing our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 we used the SICAD I exchange rate.

3

##### Table of Contents

| • |  | On February 10, 2015, the Venezuelan government announced the cancellation of SICAD II and its combination with SICAD I in order to create a new SICAD and the creation of a new foreign-currency system called SIMADI. The Group used the SIMADI exchange rate starting in March 2015 for purpose of the Group’s interim financial statements. The SIMADI exchange rate increased rapidly to approximately 218 Venezuelan bolivars per euro and stabilized during the second half of 2015 to 216.3 Venezuelan bolivars per euro as of December 31, 2015.

| • |  | In February 2016, the Venezuelan government approved a new exchange rate agreement which sets two new mechanisms (DICOM and SICOM) that regulate the purchase and sale of foreign currency and the suspension of the SIMADI exchange rate.

| • |  | In May 2017, the Venezuelan Central Bank created the “Comité de Subastas de Divisas” (the Currency Auction Committee), whose object is to administer, regulate and manage the DICOM, with autonomy for the exercise of its functions.

| • |  | From December 31, 2015, the Board of Directors considers that the use of the new DICOM and SICOM exchange rates and, the previously used the SIMADI exchange rates, for converting bolivars into euros in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect the true picture of the consolidated financial statements of the Group or the financial position of the Group’s subsidiaries in Venezuela.

| • |  | Consequently, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Group has used alternative conversion exchange rates in the conversion of the financial statements of the Group’s subsidiaries in Venezuela of 4,302 and 1,893 Venezuelan bolivars per euro, respectively. These exchanges rates have been calculated taking into account the evolution of inflation in Venezuela at those dates (122.2% and 300%, respectively as estimated by the Research Service of the Group) (see Note 2.2.20) to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Changes in operating segments

There have been no significant changes to our operating segments during the first six months of 2017 (see Note 6 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

(1) | Represents net interest income as a percentage of average total assets. In order to calculate “Net interest margin” for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, net interest income is annualized by multiplying the net interest income for the period by two.

(2) | Represents profit as a percentage of average total assets. In order to calculate “Return on average total assets” for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, profit is annualized by multiplying the profit for the period by two.

(3) | Represents profit attributable to parent company as a percentage of average total equity, excluding “Non-controlling interest”. In order to calculate “Return on average equity” for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, profit attributable to parent company is annualized by multiplying the profit attributable to parent company for the period by two.

(4) | Represents impairment losses on loans and receivables to credit institutions and loans and advances to customers.

(5) | Represents the sum of impaired loans and advances to customers and impaired contingent liabilities to customers divided by the sum of loans and advances to customers and contingent liabilities to customers.

(6) | We include contingent liabilities in the numerator and the denominator in the calculation of our non-performing asset ratio (NPA ratio). We believe that impaired contingent liabilities should be included in the calculation of our NPA ratio where we have reason to know, as of the reporting date, that they are impaired. The credit risk associated with contingent liabilities (consisting mainly of financial guarantees provided to third-parties on behalf of our customers) is evaluated and provisioned according to the probability of default of our customers’ obligations. If impaired contingent liabilities were not included in the calculation of our NPA ratio, such ratio would generally be higher for the periods covered, amounting to approximately 5.1% as of June 30, 2017, 5.3% as of December 31, 2016 and 5.6% as of June 30, 2016.

Exchange Rates

Spain’s currency is the euro. Unless otherwise indicated, the amounts that have been converted to euro in this report on Form 6-K have been performed at the corresponding exchange rate published by the European Central Bank (“ECB”) at the end of each relevant period for purposes of the balance sheet, and the average exchange rate during the relevant period for purposes of the income statement.

For convenience in the analysis of the information, the following tables describe, for the periods and dates indicated, information concerning the noon buying rate for euro, expressed in dollars per €1.00. The term “noon buying rate” refers to the rate of exchange for euros, expressed in U.S. dollars per euro, in the City of New York for cable transfers payable in foreign currencies as certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for customs purposes.

The Venezuelan bolivar depreciated significantly against the euro in the six months ended June 30, 2017. Similarly, all the currencies of the countries in which BBVA operates in South America depreciated against the euro during the same period. The effect of the devaluation of all these currencies negatively affected the business activity of the South America operating segment as of June 30, 2017 expressed in euro.

ASSETS

Interest-Bearing Deposits in Other Banks

As of June 30, 2017, interbank deposits (excluding deposits with central banks) represented 3.84% of our total assets. Of such interbank deposits, 28.6% were held outside of Spain and 71.4% in Spain. We believe that our deposits are generally placed with highly rated banks and have a lower risk than many loans we could make in Spain. However, such deposits are subject to the risk that the deposit banks may fail or the banking system of certain of the countries in which a portion of our deposits are made may face liquidity or other problems.

Securities Portfolio

As of June 30, 2017, our total securities portfolio (consisting of investment securities and loans and receivables) was carried on our consolidated balance sheet at a carrying amount (equivalent to its market or appraised value as of such date) of €120,577 million, representing 17.2% of our total assets. €33,160 million, or 27.5%, of our securities portfolio consisted of Spanish Treasury bonds and Treasury bills. The average yield for the six months ended June 30, 2017 on the investment securities that BBVA held was 2.2%, compared with an average yield of approximately 2.57% earned on loans and advances for the six months ended June 30, 2016. See Notes 10 and 12 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. For a discussion of our investments in affiliates, see Note 16 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. For a discussion of the manner in which we value our securities, see Notes 2.2.1 and 8 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following tables analyze the carrying amount and fair value of debt securities as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

As of June 30, 2017, loans by BBVA and its subsidiaries to associates and jointly controlled companies amounted to €547 million, compared with €442 million as of December 31, 2016. Loans outstanding to the Spanish government and its agencies amounted to €20,416 million, or 4.8% of our total loans and advances as of June 30, 2017, compared with €20,741 million, or 4.8% of our total loans and advances as of December 31, 2016. None of our loans to companies controlled by the Spanish government are guaranteed by the government and, accordingly, we apply normal credit criteria in extending credit to such entities. Moreover, we carefully monitor such loans because governmental policies necessarily affect such borrowers.

Diversification in our loan portfolio is our principal means of reducing the risk of loan losses. We also carefully monitor our loans to borrowers in sectors or countries experiencing liquidity problems.

##### Table of Contents

(2) | Foreign loans charged off in the six months ended June 30, 2017 include €889 million related to real estate loans and loans to individuals and others and €207 million related to commercial and financial loans. Foreign loans charged off in 2016 include €2,012 million related to real estate loans and loans to individuals and others and €361 million related to commercial and financial loans.

When the recovery of any recognized amount is considered to be remote, this amount is removed from the consolidated balance sheet, without prejudice to any actions taken by the consolidated entities in order to collect the amount until their rights extinguish in full through expiry, forgiveness or for other reasons.

The loans charged off amounted to €2,090 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with €3,032 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Our loan loss reserves as a percentage of total loans and advances decreased to 3.3% as of June 30, 2017 from 3.4% as of December 31, 2016.

Impaired Loans

As described in Note 2.2.1 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, loans are considered to be impaired when there are reasonable doubts that the loans will be recovered in full and/or the related interest will be collected for the amounts and on the dates initially agreed upon, taking into account the guarantees received by the consolidated entities to ensure (in part or in full) the performance of the loans.

Amounts collected in relation to impaired loans and receivables are used to recognize the related accrued interest and any excess amount is used to reduce the unpaid principal. The approximate amount of interest income on our impaired loans which was included in profit attributable to parent company for the six months ended June 30,

2017 and 2016 was €118 million and €131 million, respectively.

The following table provides information regarding our impaired loans, by domicile and type of customer, as of the dates indicated:

|  | As of June 30, 2017 |  |  | As of December 31, 2016 |

Impaired loans net of reserves |  |  | 6,394 |  |  |  | 6,908 |

Our total impaired loans amounted to €21,740 million as of June 30, 2017, a 5.2% decrease compared with €22,925 million as of December 31, 2016. This decrease is mainly attributable to a decline in domestic impaired loans, particularly in the real estate and construction sectors.

As mentioned in Note 2.2.1 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, our loan loss reserve includes loss reserve for impaired assets and loss reserve for unimpaired assets but which present an inherent loss. As of June 30, 2017, the loan loss reserve amounted to €15,346 million, a 4.2% decrease compared with €16,016 million as of December 31, 2016. This decrease in our loan loss reserve is mainly due to the improved performance in Spain.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

As of June 30, 2017, “troubled debt restructurings”, as described in Appendix IX to our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, totaling €10,114 million were not considered impaired loans.

Potential Problem Loans

The identification of “Potential problem loans” is based on the analysis of historical non-performing asset ratio trends, categorized by products/clients and geographical locations. This analysis is focused on the identification of portfolios with non-performing asset ratio higher than our average non-performing asset ratio. Once these portfolios are identified, we segregate such portfolios into groups with similar characteristics based on the activities to which they are related, geographical location, type of collateral, solvency of the client and loan to value ratio.

30

##### Table of Contents

The non-performing asset ratio in our domestic real estate and construction portfolio was 43.2% as of June 30, 2017 (compared with 41.2% as of December 31, 2016), substantially higher than the average non-performing asset ratio for all of our domestic activities (8.5%) and the average non-performing asset ratio for all of our consolidated activities (4.8%). Within such portfolio, construction loans and property development loans (which exclude mainly infrastructure and civil construction) had a non-performing asset ratio of 23.6% as of such date (compared with 25.3% as of December 31, 2016). Given such non-performing asset ratio, we performed an analysis in order to define the level of loan provisions attributable to these loan portfolios (see Note 2.2.1 to our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements).

Foreign Country Outstandings

The following table sets forth, as of the dates indicated, the aggregate amounts of our cross-border outstandings (which consist of loans, interest-bearing deposits with other banks, acceptances and other monetary assets denominated in a currency other than the home-country currency of the office where the item is booked) where outstandings in the borrower’s country exceeded 1% of our total assets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Cross-border outstandings do not include loans in local currency made by our subsidiary banks to customers in other countries to the extent that such loans are funded in the local currency or hedged. As a result, they do not include the vast majority of the loans made by our subsidiaries in South America, Mexico and United States or other regions which are not listed below.

The Bank of Spain requires that minimum reserves be maintained for cross-border risk arising with respect to loans and other outstandings to countries, or residents of countries, falling into certain categories established by the Bank of Spain on the basis of the level of perceived transfer risk. The category that a country falls into is determined by us, subject to review by the Bank of Spain.

31

##### Table of Contents

The following table shows the minimum required reserves with respect to each category of country for BBVA’s level of coverage as of June 30, 2017.

Categories(1) |  | Minimum Percentage of Coverage (Outstandings Within Category) |
Countries belonging to the OECD whose currencies are listed in the Spanish foreign exchange market |  |  | 0.0 |
Countries with transitory difficulties(2) |  |  | 10.1 |
Doubtful countries(2) |  |  | 22.8 |
Very doubtful countries(2)(3) |  |  | 83.5 |
Bankrupt countries(4) |  |  | 100.0 |

(1) | Any outstanding which is guaranteed may be treated, for the purposes of the foregoing, as if it were an obligation of the guarantor.

(2) | Coverage for the aggregate of these three categories (countries with transitory difficulties, doubtful countries and very doubtful countries) must equal at least 35% of outstanding loans within the three categories. The Bank of Spain has recommended up to 50% aggregate coverage.

(3) | Outstandings to very doubtful countries are treated as impaired under Bank of Spain regulations.

(4) | Outstandings to bankrupt countries must be charged off immediately. As a result, no such outstandings are reflected on our consolidated balance sheet. Notwithstanding the foregoing minimum required reserves, certain interbank outstandings with an original maturity of three months or less have minimum required reserves of 50%. We met or exceeded the minimum percentage of required coverage with respect to each of the foregoing categories.

Our exposure to borrowers in countries with difficulties (the last four categories in the foregoing table), excluding our exposure to subsidiaries or companies we manage and trade-related debt, amounted to €160 million and €104 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These figures do not reflect loan loss reserves of 20.6% and 35.6% respectively, of the relevant amounts outstanding at such dates. Deposits with or loans to borrowers in all such countries as of June 30, 2017 did not in the aggregate exceed 0.02% of our total assets.

The country-risk exposures described in the preceding paragraph as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 do not include exposures for which insurance policies have been taken out with third parties that include coverage of the risk of confiscation, expropriation, nationalization, non-transfer, non-convertibility and, if appropriate, war and political violence. The sums insured as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 amounted to $123 million and $90 million, respectively (approximately €108 million and €85 million, respectively, based on a euro/dollar exchange rate on June 30, 2017 of $1.00 = €0.88 and on December 31, 2016 of $1.00 = €0.95).

Time deposits from Spanish and foreign financial institutions amounted to €28,745 million as of June 30, 2017, substantially all of which were in excess of $100,000.

Large denomination deposits may be a less stable source of funds than demand and savings deposits because they are more sensitive to variations in interest rates. For a breakdown by currency of customer deposits as of June 30, 2017, December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016, see Note 22.2 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Trends in Exchange Rates

We are exposed to foreign exchange rate risk in that our reporting currency is the euro, whereas certain of our subsidiaries and investees keep their accounts in other currencies, principally Mexican pesos, U.S. dollars, Turkish liras, Argentine pesos, Chilean pesos, Colombian pesos, Venezuelan bolivar and Peruvian new soles. For example, if Latin American currencies, the U.S. dollar or the Turkish lira depreciate against the euro, when the results of operations of our subsidiaries in the countries using these currencies are included in our consolidated financial statements, the euro value of their results declines, even if, in local currency terms, their results of operations and financial condition have remained the same. By contrast, the appreciation of Latin American currencies, the U.S. dollar or the Turkish lira against the euro would have a positive impact on the results of operations of our subsidiaries in the countries using these currencies when their results of operations are included in our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates may limit the ability of our results of operations, stated in euro, to fully show the performance in local currency terms of our subsidiaries.

The assets and liabilities of our subsidiaries which maintain their accounts in currencies other than the euro have been converted to the euro at the period-end exchange rates for inclusion in our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Income statement items have been converted at the average exchange rates for the period. The following table sets forth the exchange rates of several Latin American currencies, the U.S. dollar and the Turkish lira against the euro, expressed in local currency per €1.00 as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 according to the European Central Bank (“ECB”).

(*) | With respect to 2017 and 2016, an alternative exchange rate (see “Presentation of Financial Information—Venezuela”) has been used as a reference.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Mexican Peso, the Argentine Peso, the Venezuelan bolivar and the Turkish Lira depreciated against the euro in average terms, and the U.S Dollar, the Chilean peso, Colombian peso and Peruvian new sol, each appreciated against the euro. With respect to period-end exchange rates, there was a period-on-period depreciation of all of the above currencies against the euro, except for the Mexican Peso, which appreciated. The overall effect of changes in exchange rates was negative for the period-on-period comparisons of the Group’s income statement and balance sheet.

Operating Environment

Our results of operations are dependent, to a large extent, on the level of demand for our products and services (primarily loans and deposits but also intermediation of financial products such as sovereign or corporate debt) in the countries in which we operate. Demand for our products and services in those countries is affected by the overall performance of their respective economies regarding activity, employment, inflation and, particularly, interest rates. The demand for loans and saving products correlates positively with income, which correlates in turn with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), as well as with employment and corporate profits evolution.

##### Table of Contents

Interest rates have a direct impact on banking results given that our banking activity mainly relies on the generation of positive interest margins by paying lower interest on our interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits, than the interest received on interest-bearing assets, principally loans. However, it should be noted that higher interest rates, all else being equal, also reduce the demand for banking loans and increase the cost of funding of our banking business.

In spite of recent improvement, world growth remains at historically low levels, 3.2% in 2016 and, according to BBVA Research estimates, 3.3% in 2017, below the long-term average of around 3.5%. This stable path at low growth rates is similar for the GDP of advanced economies, while emerging markets GDP growth rates remain slightly above 4%. Global GDP growth expectations for 2018 are currently 3.4% according to BBVA Research forecasts.

Regarding the evolution of key economic areas for the Group, after growing by 3.2% in 2016, the Spanish GDP continued to expand at an annualized rate slightly higher than 3.0% in the first half of 2017. According to BBVA Research’s current estimates, growth is expected to remain around an average of 3.3% for the full year 2017. Nevertheless, some of the tailwinds of the Spanish economy, which have had an expansionary effect on growth, are losing momentum and diminishing growth perspectives. For example, oil prices are no longer falling, the euro has gained in value, thereby deteriorating the zone’s relative competitiveness, and interest rates have ceased to decline. However, improvements in the credit market and the structural economic reforms implemented in Spain, including in the labor market, are expected to remain anchors for long-term growth of the Spanish economy.

Mexican GDP grew by 2.0% in 2016, with growth trending slower over the course of the year. As such, the current BBVA Research forecast for 2017 and 2018 GDP growth are 2.2% and 2.0%, respectively. External demand improvement is offsetting weakening domestic demand relying on better price competitiveness and demand for manufactured goods from the US. Higher inflation diminishes domestic disposable income improvement, offsetting formal employment sustained growth slightly above 4%. Mexico’s outlook is plagued with uncertainty which mainly stems from the final outcome of the renegotiation of the NAFTA trade agreement and also from potential changes in U.S. migration policy. Against this backdrop, sound fiscal policy and monetary policy focused on price stability are crucial for limiting the impact of uncertainties around the Mexican economy.

As regards Turkey, the recalculation of Turkey’s national accounts in accordance with the ESA 2010 (The European System of National and Regional Accounts 2010) methodology resulted in higher GDP levels for prior years. Under the new methodology, the annual GDP growth in the period 2011-15 was 7.1% on average compared to 4.4% according to the previous methodology. 2016 annual GDP growth is estimated to have decreased to 2.9% weighted by the tightening of foreign funding conditions, the end of the fall in oil prices, and the uncertainty stemming from a challenging geopolitical and domestic political background. Nevertheless, GDP growth has increased in the first half of 2017 relying on fiscal stimulus, the support of a public credit guarantee fund and heightened tourist demand, all of them against the backdrop of improved global funding conditions. Current BBVA Research forecasts for Turkish GDP growth are 5% in 2017 and 4.5% in 2018. It is worth noting uncertainties such as the complicated geopolitical scenario in the Middle East or the dependence on global risk appetite.

South America GDP growth (based on the weighted average of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, Mexico, Uruguay and Venezuela, calculated based on their proportional contribution to total GDP) was -1.3% in 2016 according to BBVA Research estimates, due to the combined effect of lower commodity prices, lower demand from China, tougher global financial conditions and domestic problems in some economies such as Brazil and Argentina. Following a positive first half of 2017, South America GDP growth is expected to be positive 1.0% in 2017 and 1.6% in 2018. GDP growth in 2017-2018 is expected to be driven by external demand, including higher commodity prices, supportive monetary policies and investment in countries such as Argentina and Colombia. Against the background of sustained global demand and supportive funding conditions, domestic vulnerabilities such as political noise or delays in investment are the most important domestic risks.

The U.S. economy slowed down in 2016 (GDP grew by 1.6% in 2016 and 2.6% in 2015) but continued to grow at approximately 2% in the first half of 2017 due to slowing consumption after above-average gains over the past two years. This year stronger global growth could support the recovery in exports while previous gains in oil prices are likely to continue to support increased investment in the oil & gas sector. Our baseline forecasts for U.S. GDP growth are 2.1% for 2017 and 2.2% in 2018. We believe the U.S. economic outlook rests on two key factors: whether the new administration’s ambitious pro-business agenda aimed at boosting investment and

employment spurs consumption and investment and whether the administration can uphold the institutions that have given the U.S. economy a comparative advantage. The main risks to U.S. outlook include a sharp adjustment in assets prices and expectations, weaker growth abroad, cyclical headwinds and a disorderly Federal Reserve balance sheet exit. Political uncertainty may also remain elevated.

| • |  | in United States, mainly as a result of good customer spread management despite declining volumes due to a growth strategy focused on the most profitable portfolios and segments, as well as the impact of the Federal Reserve Board benchmark interest rate increases.

| • |  | in Mexico, mainly as a result of higher interest rates applicable to loans and advances to customers continuing the positive trend;

| • |  | in Turkey, as result of a higher volume and good price management, offset by the negative impact of the depreciation of the Turkish Lira; and

| • |  | in South America, due to positive volume and rate effects in all the countries of this region where BBVA operates.

| • |  | which was partially offset by the performance of the Banking Activity in Spain, operating segment, which was adversely affected by lower (volumes (mainly securities portfolio, derivatives, and loans) and the current environment of very low interest rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity risk management and controls are explained in Note 7.5.1 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, information on encumbered assets is provided in Note 7.5.2 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and information on outstanding contractual maturities of assets and liabilities is provided in Note 7.7 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Liquidity and finance management of the BBVA Group’s balance sheet seeks to fund the growth of the banking business at suitable maturities and costs, using a wide range of instruments that provide access to a large number of alternative sources of finance.

A core principle in the BBVA Group’s liquidity and finance management is the financial independence of its banking subsidiaries. This aims to ensure that the cost of liquidity is correctly reflected in price formation. Accordingly, we maintain a liquidity pool at an individual entity level at each of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. and our banking subsidiaries, including BBVA Compass, BBVA Bancomer, Garanti and our Latin American subsidiaries.

The table below shows the composition of the liquidity pool of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. and each of our significant subsidiaries as of June 30, 2017:

Management of liquidity and structural finance within the BBVA Group is based on the principle of the financial autonomy of the entities that make it up. This approach helps prevent and limit liquidity risk by reducing the Group’s vulnerability in periods of high risk. This decentralized management avoids possible contagion due to a crisis that could affect only one or several BBVA Group entities, which must cover their liquidity needs independently in the markets where they operate. Liquidity Management Units (LMUs) have been set up for this reason in the geographical areas where the main foreign subsidiaries operate, and also for the parent BBVA S.A., within the Euro currency scope, which includes BBVA Portugal.

The Finance Division, through Global Assets and Liabilities Management, manages the BBVA Group’s liquidity and funding. It plans and executes the funding of the long-term structural gap of each LMU and proposes to ALCO the actions to adopt in this regard in accordance with the policies and limits established by the Executive Committee.

As first core element, the Bank’s target behavior in terms of liquidity and funding risk is characterized through the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and the Loan-to-Stable-Customer-Deposits (LtSCD) ratio. LCR is a regulatory measurement aimed at ensuring entities’ resistance in a scenario of liquidity stress within a time horizon of 30 days. BBVA, within its risk appetite framework and its limits and alerts schemes, has established a level of requirement for compliance with the LCR ratio both for the Group as a whole and for each of the LMUs individually. The internal levels required are geared to comply sufficiently and efficiently in advance with the implementation of the regulatory requirement of 2018, at a level above 100%.

Throughout the first half of 2017 the level of the LCR for BBVA Group has remained above 100%. At the European level the LCR ratio was effective beginning October 1, 2015, with an initial required level of 60%, and a phased-in level of up to 100% in 2018.

The LtSCD measures the relation between the net credit investment and stable funds. The aim is to preserve a stable funding structure in the medium term for each of the LMUs making up the BBVA Group, taking into account that maintaining an adequate volume of stable customer funds is key to achieving a sound liquidity profile.

Customer funds captured and managed by business units are defined as stable customer funds. These funds usually show little sensitivity to market changes and are largely non-volatile in terms of aggregate amounts per operation, thanks to customer linkage to the unit. Stable funds in each LMU are calculated by analyzing the behavior of the balance sheets of the different customer segments identified as likely to provide stability to the funding structure, and by prioritizing an established relationship and applying bigger haircuts to the funding lines of less stable customers. The main base of stable funds is composed of deposits by individual customers and small businesses.

The second core element in liquidity and funding risk management is to seek to achieve proper diversification of the funding structure, avoiding excessive reliance on short-term funding and establishing a maximum level of short-term borrowing comprising both wholesale funding as well as less stable funds from non-retail customers. Regarding long-term funding, the maturity profile does not show significant concentrations, which enables adaptation of the anticipated issuance schedule to the best financial conditions of the markets. Finally, concentration risk is monitored at the LMU level, with a view to ensuring the right diversification both per counterparty and per instrument type.

The third element promotes the short-term resilience of the liquidity risk profile, making sure that each LMU has sufficient collateral to address the risk of wholesale markets closing. “Basic Capacity” is the short-term liquidity risk management and control metric that is defined as the relationship between the available explicit assets and the maturities of wholesale liabilities and volatile funds, at different terms, with special relevance being given to 30-day maturities.

Our principal source of funds is our customer deposit base, which consists primarily of demand, savings and time deposits. In addition to relying on our customer deposits, we also access the interbank market (overnight and time deposits) and domestic and international capital markets for our additional liquidity requirements. To access the capital markets, we have in place a series of domestic and international programs for the issuance of commercial paper and medium- and long-term debt. Another source of liquidity is our generation of cash flow from our operations. Finally, we supplement our funding requirements with borrowings from the Bank of Spain and from the European Central Bank or the respective central banks of the countries where our subsidiaries are located. See Note 9 to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for information on our borrowings from central banks.

Generation of cash flow

We operate in Spain, Mexico, the United States and over 30 other countries, mainly in Europe, Latin America, and Asia. Our banking subsidiaries around the world, including BBVA Compass, are subject to supervision and regulation by a variety of regulatory bodies relating to, among other things, the satisfaction of minimum capital requirements. The obligation to satisfy such capital requirements may affect the ability of our banking subsidiaries, including BBVA Compass, to transfer funds to us in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. In addition, under the laws of the various jurisdictions where our subsidiaries, including BBVA Compass, are incorporated, dividends may only be paid out of funds legally available. For example, BBVA Compass is incorporated in Alabama and under Alabama law it is not able to pay any dividends without the prior approval of the Superintendent of Banking of Alabama if the dividend would exceed the total net earnings for the year combined with the bank’s retained net earnings of the preceding two years.

Even where minimum capital requirements are met and funds are legally available therefore, the relevant regulator could advise against the transfer of funds to us in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances, for prudence reasons or otherwise.

There is no assurance that in the future other similar restrictions will not be adopted or that, if adopted, they will not negatively affect our liquidity. The geographic diversification of our businesses, however, may help to limit the effect on the Group that any restrictions could have, which could be adopted in any given country.

We believe that our working capital is sufficient for our present requirements and to pursue our planned business strategies.

See Note 51 of the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Capital

The capital data shown below as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 has been calculated in accordance with regulation applicable as of June 30, 2017 on the basis of minimum capital base requirements for Spanish credit institutions –, both as individual entities and as consolidated Group.

The minimum capital base requirements established by current regulation are calculated based on the Group’s exposure to credit and dilution risk, counterparty and liquidity risk relating to the trading portfolio, exchange rate risk and operational risk. In addition, the Group must fulfill the risk concentration limits established in said regulation and our internal policies and requirements.

The European Central Bank (ECB), following the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) conducted in 2016, has required that the BBVA Group maintain, on a consolidated basis, effective from the 1st of January 2017, a phased-in total capital ratio of 11.125%.

62

##### Table of Contents

This total capital requirement includes:

| • |  | the minimum CET1 capital ratio required under Pillar 1 (4.5%); Pillar 1 Additional Tier 1 capital requirements (1.5%); Pillar 1 Tier 2 capital requirements (2%), which corresponds to the minimum capital ratios required by Article 92 of the CRR;

| • |  | Pillar 2 CET1 capital requirements (1.5%), which corresponds to the CET1 ratio required in excess of the minimum CET1 ratio, in accordance with Article 16(2)(a) of Council Regulation No 1024/2013 of 15 October 2013;

| • |  | the capital conservation buffer (CCB) (1.25% CET1) which has been required since January 1, 2016 by Article 44 of Law 10/2014 and its implementing regulations. The Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB) stands, in fully loaded terms, at 2.5% CET1. The amount to be applicable in 2017 will be 50% of that buffer (i.e. 1.25%); and

| • |  | the Other Systemic Important Institution buffer (OSII or D-SIB) (0.375% CET1). The Other Systemic Important Institution buffer (OSII) stands, in fully loaded terms, at 0.75% CET1. The amount to be applicable in 2017 will be 50% of that buffer (i.e. 0.375%).

Since BBVA has been excluded from the list of global systemically important financial institutions in 2016 (which is updated every year by the Financial Stability Board (FSB)), the G-SIB buffer is not applicable to BBVA in 2017, (notwithstanding the possibility that the FSB or the supervisor may include BBVA on it in the future).

However, the FSB has informed BBVA that it is included on the list of other systemically important financial institutions, and a D-SIB buffer of 0.75% of the fully-loaded ratio applies at the consolidated level. It is implemented gradually from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2019.

Our consolidated ratios as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows:

The minimum capital requirements under CRD IV (8% RWA) decreased to €29,846 million as of June 30, 2017 from €31,116 million at December 31, 2016, largely explained by the depreciation of various currencies against the euro (especially the Turkish lira and the U.S. dollar) and an improvement in the risk profile of the Group’s portfolio, particularly the Spanish portfolio. We entered into a €3,000 million synthetic securitization on June 2, 2017 which covers potential losses on a portfolio of around 15,000 loans to Spanish SMEs. This was arranged through a mezzanine guarantee facility provided by the European Investment Fund, a subsidiary of the supranational European Investment Bank. This transaction enabled the Group to free up €683million in risk-weighted assets with a corresponding positive impact on the capital ratios.

Variations in the amount of core capital are, mainly, explained by the organic generation of results, net of dividend and remuneration payments in the first half of the year and the efficient management and allocation of capital in line with the strategic objectives of the Group. Additionally, there is a negative effect on regulatory adjustments (mainly on minority interests and deductions) due to the regulatory phased-in calendar of 80% in 2017 compared with 60% in 2016.

The variation of the core capital was also affected by transactions carried out during the first quarter of 2017, in particular the acquisition of an additional 9.95% stake in Garanti and the sale of 1.7% stake in CNCB. Both transactions had a combined negative impact on the ratio of 13 basis points.

The Tier 1 ratio increased to 13.00% as of June 30, 2017 from 12.88% as of December 31, 2016, mainly due to the issuance by BBVA, S.A. of €500million in preferred securities at a coupon of 5.875%. This is classified as additional Tier 1 capital (contingent convertible) under solvency regulation, capable of converting into ordinary BBVA shares.

In addition, BBVA, S.A. has undertaken various subordinated capital issues worth a nominal amount of close to €1,500million (of which €168million were issued in the second quarter). Meanwhile, Garanti in Turkey issued $750million in the second quarter. These issues compute as Tier 2 capital, having a 50 basis point impact on the total capital ratio during the first half of the year on a phased-basis.

As a result of the factors discussed above, the total capital ratio stood at 15.50% as of June 30, 2017.

Notes to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements

1. | Introduction, basis for the presentation of the interim Consolidated Financial Statements, internal control of financial information and other information

1.1 | Introduction

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (hereinafter “the Bank” or “BBVA”) is a private-law entity subject to the laws and regulations governing banking entities operating in Spain. It carries out its activity through branches and agencies across the country and abroad.

The Bylaws and other public information are available for inspection at the Bank’s registered address (Plaza San Nicolás, 4 Bilbao) as on its web site (www.bbva.com).

In addition to the activities it carries out directly, the Bank heads a group of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates which perform a wide range of activities and which together with the Bank constitute the Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria Group (hereinafter, “the Group” or “the BBVA Group”). In addition to its own separate financial statements, the Bank is therefore required to prepare Consolidated Financial Statements comprising all consolidated subsidiaries of the Group.

As of June 30, 2017, the BBVA Group had 358 consolidated entities and 85 entities accounted for using the equity method (see Notes 3 and 16 and Appendix I to V).

The Consolidated Financial Statements of the BBVA Group for the year ended December 31, 2016 were approved by the shareholders at the Annual General Meetings (“AGM”) on March 17, 2017.

1.2 | Basis for the presentation of the interim Consolidated Financial Statements

The BBVA Group’s interim Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards endorsed by the European Union (hereinafter, “EU-IFRS”) applicable as of June 30, 2017, considering the Bank of Spain Circular 4/2004, of December, 22 (and as amended thereafter), and with any other legislation governing financial reporting applicable to the Group and in compliance with IFRS-IASB.

The BBVA Group’s accompanying interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were prepared by the Group’s Directors (through the Board of Directors held on July 27, 2017) by applying the principles of consolidation, accounting policies and valuation criteria described in Note 2, so that they present fairly the Group’s total consolidated equity and financial position as of June 30, 2017, together with the consolidated results of its operations and cash flows generated during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

These interim Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared on the basis of the accounting records kept by the Bank and each of the other entities in the Group. Moreover, they include the adjustments and reclassifications required to harmonize the accounting policies and valuation criteria used by the Group (see Note 2.2).

All effective accounting standards and valuation criteria with a significant effect in the interim Consolidated Financial Statements were applied in their preparation.

The amounts reflected in the accompanying interim Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in millions of euros, unless it is more appropriate to use smaller units. Some items that appear without a balance in these interim Consolidated Financial Statements are due to how the units are expressed. Also, in presenting amounts in millions of euros, the accounting balances have been rounded up or down. It is therefore possible that the totals appearing in some tables are not the exact arithmetical sum of their component figures.

The percentage changes in amounts have been calculated using figures expressed in thousands of euros.

##### Table of Contents

1.3 | Comparative information

During the first semester of 2017, there were no significant changes to the existing structure of the BBVA Group’s operating segments in comparison to 2016 (Note 6). Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

1.4 | Seasonal nature of income and expenses

The nature of the most significant activities carried out by the BBVA Group’s entities is mainly related to typical activities carried out by financial institutions, which are not significantly affected by seasonal factors within the same year.

1.5 | Responsibility for the information and for the estimates made

The information contained in the BBVA Group’s interim Consolidated Financial Statements is the responsibility of the Group’s Directors.

Estimates have to be made at times when preparing these interim Consolidated Financial Statements in order to calculate the recorded amount of some assets, liabilities, income, expenses and commitments. These estimates relate mainly to the following:

● |  | Impairment on certain financial assets (see Notes 7, 12, 13, 14 and 16).

● |  | The assumptions used to quantify certain provisions (see Notes 24 and 25) and for the actuarial calculation of post-employment benefit liabilities and commitments (see Note 25).

● |  | The useful life and impairment losses of tangible and intangible assets (see Notes 17, 18, 20 and 21).

● |  | The valuation of goodwill and price allocation of business combinations (see Note 18).

● |  | The fair value of certain unlisted financial assets and liabilities (see Notes 7, 8, 10, 11 and 12).

● |  | The recoverability of deferred tax assets (See Note 19).

● |  | The Exchange rate and the inflation rate of Venezuela (see Notes 2.2.16 and 2.2.20).

Although these estimates were made on the basis of the best information available as of June 30, 2017 on the events analyzed, future events may make it necessary to modify them (either up or down) over the coming years. This would be done prospectively in accordance with applicable standards, recognizing the effects of changes in the estimates in the corresponding consolidated income statement.

1.6 | BBVA Group’s Internal Control over financial reporting

The financial information prepared by the BBVA Group is subject to a Financial Internal Control System (hereinafter “FICS”), which provides reasonable assurance with respect to its reliability and the integrity of the consolidated financial information. It is also aimed to ensure that the transactions are processed in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

The FICS was developed by the BBVA Group’s management in accordance with the framework established by the “Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission 2013” (hereinafter, “COSO”). The COSO framework sets five components that constitute the basis of the effectiveness and efficiency of the internal control systems:

● |  | The establishment of an appropriate control framework.

● |  | The assessment of the risks that could arise during the preparation of the financial information.

● |  | The design of the necessary controls to mitigate the identified risks.

● |  | The establishment of an appropriate system of information to detect and report system weaknesses.

● |  | The monitoring of the controls to ensure their effectiveness over time.

The FICS is a dynamic model that evolves continuously over time to reflect the reality of the BBVA Group’s businesses, processes, risks and controls designed to mitigate them. It is subject to a continuous evaluation by the internal control units located in the different entities of BBVA Group.

These internal control units are integrated within the BBVA internal control model which is based in two pillars:

F-13

##### Table of Contents

● |  | A control model organized into three lines of defense:

| - |  | The first line is located within the business and support operational units, which are responsible for identifying risks associated with their processes and to execute the controls established to mitigate them.

| - |  | The second line comprises the specialized control units (Internal Risk Control, Internal Financial Control, Operations Control, Internal Engineering Control and Compliance among others). This second line defines the models and control policies under their areas of responsibility and monitors the design and the correct implementation assessing their effectiveness.

| - |  | The third line is the Internal Audit unit, which conducts an independent review of the model, verifying the compliance and effectiveness of the model.

● |  | A set of committees called Corporate Assurance that helps to escalate the internal control issues to the management at a Group level and also in each of the countries where the Group operates.

The internal control units comply with a common and standard methodology established at Group level, as set out in the following diagram:

The FICS Model is subject to annual evaluations by the Group’s Internal Audit Unit and external auditors. It is also supervised by the Audit and Compliance Committee of the Bank’s Board of Directors.

The BBVA Group also complies with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (hereafter “SOX”) for Consolidated Financial Statements as a listed company in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The main senior executives of the Group take part in the design, compliance and implementation of the internal control model to make it efficient and to ensure the quality and accuracy of the financial information.

1.7 | Mortgage market policies and procedures

The information on “Mortgage market policies and procedures” (for the granting of mortgage loans and for debt issues secured by such mortgage loans) required by Bank of Spain Circular 5/2011, applying Royal Decree 716/2009, dated April 24 (which developed certain aspects of Act 2/1981, dated March 25, on the regulation of the mortgage market and other mortgage and financial market regulations), can be found in Appendix VIII.

2. | Principles of consolidation, accounting policies and measurement bases applied and recent IFRS pronouncements

The Glossary includes the definition of some of the financial and economic terms used in Note 2 and subsequent Notes.

2.1 | Principles of consolidation

In terms of its consolidation, in accordance with the criteria established by the IFRS, the BBVA Group is made up of four types of entities: subsidiaries, joint ventures, associates and structured entities, defined as follows:

● |  | Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group (for definition of the criterion for control, see Glossary).The financial statements of the subsidiaries are fully consolidated with those of the Bank. The share of non-controlling interests from subsidiaries in the Group’s consolidated total equity is presented under the heading “Non-controlling interests” in the consolidated balance sheet. Their share in the profit or loss for the period or year is presented under the heading “Attributable to minority interest” in the accompanying consolidated income statement (see Note 31).

Note 3 includes information related to the main subsidiaries in the Group as of June 30, 2017. Appendix I includes other significant information on these entities.

● |  | Joint ventures

Joint ventures are those entities over which there is a joint arrangement to joint control with third parties other than the Group (for definitions of joint arrangement, joint control and joint venture, refer to Glossary).

The investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (see Note 16). Appendix II shows the main figures for joint ventures accounted for using the equity method.

● |  | Associates

Associates are entities in which the Group is able to exercise significant influence (for definition of significant influence, see Glossary). Significant influence is deemed to exist when the Group owns 20% or more of the voting rights of an investee directly or indirectly, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case.

However, certain entities in which the Group owns 20% or more of the voting rights are not included as Group associates, since the Group does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over these entities. Investments in these entities, which do not represent material amounts for the Group, are classified as “Available-for-sale financial assets”.

In contrast, some investments in entities in which the Group holds less than 20% of the voting rights are accounted for as Group associates, as the Group is considered to have the ability to exercise significant influence over these entities. As of December 31, 2016, these entities are not significant in the Group.

Appendix II shows the most significant information related to the associates (see Note 16), which are accounted for using the equity method.

● |  | Structured Entities

A structured entity is an entity that has been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity, such as when the voting rights relate to administrative matters only and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements (see Glossary).

In those cases where the Group sets up entities or has a holding in such entities, in order to allow its customers access to certain investments, to transfer risks or for other purposes, in accordance with internal criteria and procedures and with applicable regulations, the Group determines whether control over the entity in question actually exists and therefore whether it should be subject to consolidation.

Such methods and procedures determine whether there is control by the Group, considering how the decisions are made about the relevant activities, assesses whether the Group has all power over the relevant elements, exposure, or rights, to variable returns from involvement with the investee and the ability to use power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns.

F-15

##### Table of Contents

| – | Structured entities subject to consolidation

To determine if a structured entity is controlled by the Group, and therefore should be consolidated into the Group, the existing contractual rights (different from the voting rights) are analyzed. For this reason, an analysis of the structure and purpose of each investee is performed and, among others, the following factors will be considered:

| - |  | Evidence of the current ability to manage the relevant activities of the investee according to the specific business needs (including any decisions that may arise only in particular circumstances).

| - |  | Potential existence of a special relationship with the investee.

| - |  | Implicit or explicit Group commitments to support the investee.

| - |  | The ability to use the Group´s power over the investee to affect the amount of the Group’s returns.

There are cases where the Group has a high exposure to variable returns and retains decision-making power over the investee, either directly or through an agent.

The main structured entities of the Group are the so-called asset securitization funds, to which the BBVA Group transferred loans and receivables portfolios, and other vehicles, which allow the Group’s customers to gain access to certain investments or to allow for the transfer of risks and other purposes (see Appendix I and V). The BBVA Group maintains the decision-making power over the relevant activities of these vehicles and financial support through securitized market standard contracts. The most common ones are: investment positions in equity note tranches, funding through subordinated debt, credit enhancements through derivative instruments or liquidity lines, management rights of defaulted securitized assets, “clean-up” call derivatives, and asset repurchase clauses by the grantor.

For these reasons, the loans and receivable portfolios related to the vast majority of the securitizations carried out by the Bank or Group subsidiaries are not derecognized in the books of said entity and the issuances of the related debt securities are registered as liabilities within the Group’s consolidated balance sheet.

| – | Non-consolidated structured entities

The Group owns other vehicles also for the purpose of allowing customers access to certain investments, to transfer risks, and for other purposes, but without the Group having control of the vehicles, which are not consolidated in accordance with IFRS 10. The balance of assets and liabilities of these vehicles is not material in relation to the Group’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of June 30, 2017, there was no material financial support from the Bank or its subsidiaries to unconsolidated structured entities.

The Group does not consolidate any of the mutual funds it manages since the necessary control conditions are not met (see definition of control in the Glossary). Particularly, the BBVA Group does not act as arranger but as agent since it operates the mutual funds on behalf and for the benefit of investors or parties (arranger of arrangers) and, for this reason it does not control the mutual funds when exercising its authority for decision making.

On the other hand, the mutual funds managed by the Group are not considered structured entities (generally, retail funds without corporate identity over which investors have participations which gives them ownership of said managed equity). These funds are not dependent on a capital structure that could prevent them to carry out activities without additional financial support, being in any case insufficient as far as the activities themselves are concerned. Additionally, the risk of the investment is absorbed by the fund participants, and the Group is only exposed when it becomes a participant, and as such, there is no other risk for the Group.

In all cases, results of equity method investees acquired by the BBVA Group in a particular period are included taking into account only the period from the date of acquisition to the financial statements date. Similarly, the results of entities disposed of during any year are included taking into account only the period from the start of the year to the date of disposal.

The interim consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures used in the preparation of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group relate to the same date of presentation as the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. If interim financial statements at those same dates are not available, the most recent will be used, as long as these are not older than three months, and adjusted to take into account the most significant transactions. As of June 30, 2017, except for the case of the interim consolidated financial statements of four associates and joint-ventures deemed non-significant for which interim financial statements as of May 31, 2017 were used, the June 30, 2017 interim financial statements for of all Group entities were available.

F-16

##### Table of Contents

Our banking subsidiaries, associates and joint venture around the world, are subject to supervision and regulation from a variety of regulatory bodies in relation to, among other aspects, the satisfaction of minimum capital requirements. The obligation to satisfy such capital requirements may affect the ability of such entities to transfer funds in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. In addition, under the laws of the various jurisdictions where such entities are incorporated, dividends may only be paid out through funds legally available for such purpose. Even when the minimum capital requirements are met and funds are legally available, the relevant regulator or other public administrations could discourage or delay the transfer of funds to the Group in the form of cash, dividends, loans or advances for prudential reasons.

2.2 | Accounting policies and valuation criteria applied

The accounting standards and policies and the valuation criteria applied in preparing these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements may differ from those used by some of the entities within the BBVA Group. For this reason, necessary adjustments and reclassifications have been made in the consolidation process to standardize these principles and criteria and comply with the IFRS-IASB.

The accounting standards and policies and valuation criteria used in preparing the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are as follows:

2.2.1 | Financial instruments

Measurement of financial instruments and recognition of changes in subsequent fair value

All financial instruments are initially accounted for at fair value which, unless there is evidence to the contrary, shall be the transaction price.

Excluding all trading derivatives not considered as economic hedges, all the changes in the fair value of the financial instruments arising from the accrual of interests and similar items are recognized under the headings “Interest income” or “Interest expenses”, as appropriate, in the accompanying consolidated income statement in which the change occurred (see Note 37). The dividends received from other entities, other than associate entities and joint venture entities, are recognized under the heading “Dividend income” in the accompanying consolidated income statement in the period in which the right to receive them arises (see Note 38).

The changes in fair value after the initial recognition, for reasons other than those mentioned in the preceding paragraph, are treated as described below, according to the categories of financial assets and liabilities.

“Financial assets and liabilities held for trading” and “Financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss”

The assets and liabilities recognized under these headings of the consolidated balance sheets are measured upon acquisition at fair value and changes in the fair value (gains or losses) are recognized as their net value under the heading “Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities (net)” in the accompanying consolidated income statements (see Note 41). Interests derivatives designated as economic hedges on interest rate are registered in interest income or expense (Note 37), depending on where the result of the hedging instrument. However, changes in fair value resulting from variations in foreign exchange rates are recognized under the heading “Exchange differences (net)” in the accompanying consolidated income statements (Note 41).

“Available-for-sale financial assets”

Assets recognized under this heading in the consolidated balance sheets are measured at their fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value (gains or losses) are recognized temporarily for their amount net of tax effect, under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income- Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Available-for-sale financial assets” in the consolidated balance sheets.

Changes in the value of non-monetary items resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates are recognized temporarily under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income- Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Exchange differences” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Changes in foreign exchange rates resulting from monetary items are recognized under the heading “Exchange differences (net)” in the accompanying consolidated income statements (see Note 41).

F-17

##### Table of Contents

The amounts recognized under the headings “Accumulated other comprehensive income- Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Available-for-sale financial assets” and “Accumulated other comprehensive income- Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Exchange differences” continue to form part of the Group’s consolidated equity until the corresponding asset is derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet or until an impairment loss is recognized on the corresponding financial instrument. If these assets are sold, these amounts are derecognized and included under the headings “Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities (net)” or “Exchange differences (net)”, as appropriate, in the consolidated income statement for the year in which they are derecognized.

The net impairment losses in “Available-for-sale financial assets” over the year are recognized under the heading “Impairment losses on financial assets (net) – Other financial instruments not at fair value through profit or loss” (see Note 47) in the consolidated income statements for that period.

“Loans and receivables”, “Held-to-maturity investments” and “Financial liabilities at amortized cost”

Assets and liabilities recognized under these headings in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are measured once acquired at “amortized cost” using the “effective interest rate” method. This is because the consolidated entities generally intend to hold such financial instruments to maturity.

Net impairment losses of assets recognized under these headings arising in each period are recognized under the heading “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss – loans and receivables”, “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss - held to maturity investments” or “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss – financial assets measured at cost” (see Note 47) in the consolidated income statement for that period.

“Derivatives-Hedge Accounting” and “Fair value changes of the hedged items in portfolio hedges of interest-rate risk”

Assets and liabilities recognized under these headings in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are measured at fair value.

Changes occurring subsequent to the designation of the hedging relationship in the measurement of financial instruments designated as hedged items as well as financial instruments designated as hedge accounting instruments are recognized as follows:

● |  | In fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized under the heading “Gains or losses from hedge accounting, net” in the consolidated income statement, with a corresponding item under the headings where hedging items (“Hedging derivatives”) and the hedged items are recognized, as applicable. Almost all of the hedges used by the Group are for interest-rate risks. Therefore, the valuation changes are recognized under the headings “Interest income” or “Interest expenses”, as appropriate, in the accompanying consolidated income statement (see Note 37).

● |  | In fair value hedges of interest rate risk of a portfolio of financial instruments (portfolio-hedges), the gains or losses that arise in the measurement of the hedging instrument are recognized in the consolidated income statement, and the gains or losses that arise from the change in the fair value of the hedged item (attributable to the hedged risk) are also recognized in the consolidated income statement (in both cases under the heading “Gains or losses from hedge accounting, net”, using, as a balancing item, the headings “Fair value changes of the hedged items in portfolio hedges of interest rate risk” in the consolidated balance sheets, as applicable.

● |  | In cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the hedging instruments relating to the effective portion are recognized temporarily under the heading ““Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Hedging derivatives. Cash flow hedges” in the consolidated balance sheets, with a balancing entry under the heading “Hedging derivatives” of the Assets or Liabilities of the Consolidated Financial Statements as applicable. These differences are recognized in the accompanying consolidated income statement at the time when the gain or loss in the hedged instrument affects profit or loss, when the forecast transaction is executed or at the maturity date of the hedged item (see Note 37).

● |  | Differences in the measurement of the hedging items corresponding to the ineffective portions of cash flow hedges are recognized directly in the heading “Gains or (-) losses from hedge accounting, net” in the consolidated income statement (see Note 41).

##### Table of Contents

● |  | In the hedges of net investments in foreign operations, the differences attributable to the effective portions of hedging items are recognized temporarily under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss – Hedging of net investments in foreign transactions” in the consolidated balance sheets with a balancing entry under the heading “Hedging derivatives” of the Assets or Liabilities of the Consolidated Financial Statements as applicable. These differences in valuation are recognized under the heading “Exchange differences (net)” in the consolidated income statement when the investment in a foreign operation is disposed of or derecognized (see Note 41).

Other financial instruments

The following exceptions are applicable with respect to the above general criteria:

● |  | Equity instruments whose fair value cannot be determined in a sufficiently objective manner and financial derivatives that have those instruments as their underlying asset and are settled by delivery of those instruments are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at acquisition cost; this may be adjusted, where appropriate, for any impairment loss (see Note 8).

● |  | Accumulated other comprehensive income arising from financial instruments classified at the consolidated balance sheet date as “Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale” are recognized with the corresponding entry under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income- Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss – Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Impairment losses on financial assets

Definition of impaired financial assets carried at amortized cost

A financial asset is considered impaired – and therefore its carrying amount is adjusted to reflect the effect of impairment – when there is objective evidence that events have occurred, which:

● |  | In the case of debt instruments (loans and advances and debt securities), reduce the future cash flows that were estimated at the time the instruments were acquired. So they are considered impaired when there are reasonable doubts that the carrying amounts will be recovered in full and/or the related interest will be collected for the amounts and on the dates initially agreed.

● |  | In the case of equity instruments, it means that their carrying amount may not be fully recovered.

As a general rule, the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is adjusted with a charge to the consolidated income statement for the period in which the impairment becomes known. The recoveries of previously recognized impairment losses are reflected, if appropriate, in the consolidated income statement for the year in which the impairment is reversed or reduced, with an exception: any recovery of previously recognized impairment losses for an investment in an equity instrument classified as financial assets available for sale is not recognized in the consolidated income statement, but under the heading “ Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Available-for-sale financial assets” in the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 30).

In general, amounts collected on impaired loans and receivables are used to recognize the related accrued interest and any excess amount is used to reduce the unpaid principal.

When the recovery of any recognized amount is considered remote, such amount is written-off on the consolidated balance sheet, without prejudice to any actions that may be taken in order to collect the amount until the rights extinguish in full either because it is time-barred debt, the debt is forgiven, or other reasons.

Impairment on financial assets

The impairment on financial assets is determined by type of instrument and other circumstances that could affect it, taking into account the guarantees received by the owners of the financial instruments to assure (in part or in full) the performance of the financial assets. The BBVA Group recognizes impairment charges directly against the impaired financial asset when the likelihood of recovery is deemed remote, and uses an offsetting or allowance account when it recognizes non-performing loan provisions for the estimated losses.

Impairment of debt securities measured at amortized cost

With regard to impairment losses arising from insolvency risk of the obligors (credit risk), a debt instrument, mainly Loans and receivables, is impaired due to insolvency when a deterioration in the ability to pay by the obligor is evidenced, either due to past due status or for other reasons.

F-19

##### Table of Contents

The BBVA Group has developed policies, methods and procedures to estimate incurred losses on outstanding credit risk. These policies, methods and procedures are 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 is calculated based on whether the impairment losses are determined individually or collectively. First it is determined whether there is objective evidence of impairment individually for individually significant debt instrument, and collectively for debt instrument that are not individually significant. In the case where the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment in the case of debt instrument analyzed individually will be included in a group of debt instrument with similar risk characteristics and collectively impaired is analyzed.

In determining whether there is objective evidence of impairment the Group uses observable data on 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 counterparty.

● |  | 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 prices, etc.).

Impairment losses on financial assets individually evaluated for impairment

The amount of the impairment losses incurred on financial assets represents the excess of their respective carrying amounts over the present values of their expected future cash flows. These cash flows are discounted using the original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective rate determined under the contract.

As an exception to the rule described above, the market value of listed debt instruments is deemed to be a fair estimate of the present value of their expected future cash flows.

The following is to be taken into consideration when estimating the future cash flows of debt instruments:

● |  | All the amounts that are expected to be recovered over the remaining life of the debt instrument; including, where appropriate, those which may 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 include an estimate for the possibility of collecting accrued, past-due and uncollected interest.

● |  | The various types of risk to which each debt instrument is subject.

● |  | The circumstances in which collections will foreseeably be made.

Impairment losses on financial assets collectively evaluated for impairment

With regard to the collective impairment analysis, financial assets are grouped by risk type considering the debtor’s capacity to pay based on the contractual terms. As part of this analysis, the BBVA Group estimates the impairment loan losses that are not individually significant, distinguishing between those that show objective evidence of impairment, and those that do not show objective evidence of impairment, as well as the impairment of significant loans that the BBVA Group has deemed as not showing an objective evidence of impairment.

F-20

##### Table of Contents

With respect to financial assets that have no objective evidence of impairment, the Group applies statistical methods using historical experience and other specific information to estimate the losses that the Group has incurred as a result of events that have occurred as of the date of preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements but have not been known and will be apparent, individually after the date of submission of the information. This calculation is an intermediate step until these losses are identified on an individual level, at which these financial instruments will be segregated from the portfolio of financial assets without objective evidence of impairment.

The incurred loss is calculated taking into account three key factors: exposure 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 principal 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 balance sheet date, the Group evaluates the whole amount expected to be obtained over the remaining life of the financial asset. The recoverable amount from executable secured collateral is estimated based on the property valuation, discounting the necessary adjustments to adequately account for the potential fall in value until its execution and sale, as well as execution costs, maintenance costs and sale costs.

In addition, to identify the possible incurred but not reported losses (IBNR) in the unimpaired portfolio, an additional parameter called “LIP” (loss identification period) has to be introduced. The LIP parameter is the period between the time at which the event that generates a given loss occurs and the time when the loss is identified at an individual level. The analysis of the LIPs is carried out on the basis of uniform risk portfolios.

When the property right is contractually acquired at the end of the foreclosure process or when the assets of distressed borrowers are purchased, the asset is recognized in the financial statements (see Note 2.2.4).

Impairment of other debt instruments classified as financial assets available for sale

The impairment losses on other debt instruments included in the “Available-for-sale financial asset” portfolio are equal to the excess of their acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment), after deducting any impairment loss previously recognized in the consolidated income statement over their fair value.

When there is objective evidence that the negative differences arising on measurement of these debt instruments are due to impairment, they are no longer considered as “Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Available-for-sale financial assets” and are recognized in the consolidated income statement.

If all, or part of the impairment losses are subsequently recovered, the amount is recognized in the consolidated income statement for the year in which the recovery occurred, up to the amount previously recognized in the income statement.

Impairment of equity instruments

The amount of the impairment in the equity instruments is determined by the category where they are recognized:

● |  | Equity instruments classified as available for sale: When there is objective evidence that the negative differences arising on measurement of these equity instruments are due to impairment, they are no longer registered as “Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Available-for-sale financial assets” and are recognized in the consolidated income statement. In general, the Group considers that there is objective evidence of impairment on equity instruments classified as available-for-sale when significant unrealized losses have existed over a sustained period of time due to a price reduction of at least 40% or over a period of more than 18 months.

When applying this evidence of impairment, the Group takes into account the volatility in the price of each individual equity instrument to determine whether it is a percentage that can be recovered through its sale in the market; other different thresholds may exist for certain equity instruments or specific sectors.

In addition, for individually significant investments, the Group compares the valuation of the most significant equity instruments against valuations performed by independent experts.

F-21

##### Table of Contents

Any recovery of previously recognized impairment losses for an investment in an equity instrument classified as available for sale is not recognized in the consolidated income statement, but under the heading “ Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Available-for-sale financial assets” in the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 30).

● |  | Equity instruments measured at cost: The impairment losses on equity instruments measured at acquisition cost are equal to the excess of their carrying amount over the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the market rate of return for similar equity instruments. In order to determine these impairment losses, save for better evidence, an assessment of the equity of the investee is carried out (excluding Accumulated other comprehensive income due to cash flow hedges) based on the last approved (consolidated) balance sheet, adjusted by the unrealized gains at measurement date.

Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated income statement for the year in which they arise as a direct reduction of the cost of the instrument. These impairment losses may only be recovered subsequently in the event of the sale of these assets.

2.2.2 | Transfers and derecognition of financial assets and liabilities

The accounting treatment of transfers of financial assets is determined by the form in which risks and benefits associated with the financial assets involved are transferred to third parties. Thus the financial assets are only derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet when the cash flows that they generate are extinguished, when their implicit risks and benefits have been substantially transferred to third parties or when the control of financial asset is transferred even with no physical transfer or substantial retention of such assets. In the latter case, the financial asset transferred is derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet, and any right or obligation retained or created as a result of the transfer is simultaneously recognized.

Similarly, financial liabilities are derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet only if their obligations are extinguished or acquired (with a view to subsequent cancellation or renewed placement).

The Group is considered to have transferred substantially all the risks and benefits if such risks and benefits account for the majority of the risks and benefits involved in ownership of the transferred financial assets. If substantially all the risks and benefits associated with the transferred financial asset are retained:

● |  | The transferred financial asset is not derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet and continues to be measured using the same criteria as those used before the transfer.

● |  | A financial liability is recognized at the amount equal to the amount received, which is subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value with changes in the income statement, whichever the case.

● |  | Both the income generated on the transferred (but not derecognized) financial asset and the expenses of the new financial liability continue to be recognized.

2.2.3 | Financial guarantees

Financial guarantees are considered to be those contracts that require their issuer to make specific payments to reimburse the holder of the financial guarantee for a loss incurred when a specific borrower breaches its payment obligations on the terms – whether original or subsequently modified – of a debt instrument, irrespective of the legal form it may take. Financial guarantees may take the form of a deposit, bank guarantee, insurance contract or credit derivative, among others.

In their initial recognition, financial guarantees are recognized as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value, which is generally the present value of the fees, commissions and interest receivable from these contracts over the term thereof, and the Group simultaneously recognize a corresponding asset in the consolidated balance sheet for the amount of the fees and commissions received at the inception of the transactions and the amounts receivable at the present value of the fees, commissions and interest outstanding.

Financial guarantees, irrespective of the guarantor, instrumentation or other circumstances, are reviewed periodically so as to determine the credit risk to which they are exposed and, if appropriate, to consider whether a provision is required for them. The credit risk is determined by application of criteria similar to those established for quantifying impairment losses on debt instruments measured at amortized cost (see Note 2.2.1).

The provisions recognized for financial guarantees considered impaired are recognized under the heading “Provisions - Provisions for contingent risks and commitments” on the liability side in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 24). These provisions are recognized and reversed with a charge or credit, respectively; to “Provisions or reversal of provision” in the consolidated income statements (see Note 46).

F-22

##### Table of Contents

Income from financial guarantees is recorded under the heading “Fee and commission income” in the consolidated income statement and is calculated by applying the rate established in the related contract to the nominal amount of the guarantee (see Note 40).

2.2.4 | Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale and liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale

The heading “Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale and liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale” in the consolidated balance sheets includes the carrying amount of assets that are not part of the BBVA Group’s operating activities. The recovery of this carrying amount is expected to take place through the price obtained on its disposal (see Note 21).

This heading includes individual items and groups of items (“disposal groups”) and disposal groups that form part of a major operating segment and are being held for sale as part of a disposal plan (“discontinued operations”). The individual items include the assets received by the subsidiaries from their debtors, in full or partial settlement of the debtors’ payment obligations (assets foreclosed or donated in repayment of debt and recovery of lease finance transactions), unless the Group has decided to make continued use of these assets. The BBVA Group has units that specialize in real estate management and the sale of this type of asset.

Symmetrically, the heading “Liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale” in the consolidated balance sheets reflects the balances payable arising from disposal groups and discontinued operations. Profit or loss from non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are generally measured, at the acquisition date and at any later date deemed necessary, at either their carrying amount or the fair value of the property (less costs to sell), whichever is lower.

In the case of real estate assets foreclosed or received in payment of debts, they are initially recognized at the lower of: the restated carrying amount of the financial asset and the fair value at the time of the foreclosure or receipt of the asset less estimated sales costs. The carrying amount of the financial asset is updated at the time of the foreclosure, treating the real property received as a secured collateral and taking into account the credit risk coverage that would correspond to it according to its classification prior to the delivery. For these purposes, the collateral will be valued at its current fair value (less sale costs) at the time of foreclosure. This carrying amount will be compared with the previous carrying amount and the difference will be recognized as a provision increase, if applicable. On the other hand, the fair value of the foreclosed asset is obtained by appraisal, evaluating the need to apply a discount on the asset derived from the specific conditions of the asset or the market situation for these assets, and in any case, deducting the company’s estimated sale costs.

At the time of the initial recognition, these real estate assets foreclosed or received in payment of debts, classified as “Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale and liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale” are valued at the lower of: their restated fair value less estimated sale costs and their carrying amount; a deterioration or impairment reversal can be recognized for the difference if applicable.

Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale groups classified as held for sale are not depreciated while included under this heading.

Fair value of non-current assets and disposable instruments held for sale from foreclosures or recoveries is based, mainly, in appraisals or valuations made by independent experts on a yearly based or less should there be evidence of impairment. Gains and losses generated on the disposal of assets and liabilities classified as non-current held for sale, and liabilities included in disposal groups classified as held for sale as well as impairment losses and, where pertinent, the related recoveries, are recognized in “Profit or (-) loss from non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale not qualifying as discontinued operations” in the consolidated income statement (see Note 50). The remaining income and expense items associated with these assets and liabilities are classified within the relevant consolidated income statement headings.

Income and expenses for discontinued operations, whatever their nature, generated during the year, even if they have occurred before their classification as discontinued operations, are presented net of the tax effect as a single amount under the heading “Profit from discontinued operations” in the consolidated income statement, whether the business remains on the balance sheet or is derecognized from the balance sheet. As long as an asset remains in this category, it will not be amortized. This heading includes the earnings from their sale or other disposal.

2.2.5 | Tangible assets

Property, plant and equipment for own use

This heading includes the assets under ownership or acquired under lease finance, intended for future or current use by the BBVA Group and that it expects to hold for more than one year. It also includes tangible assets received by the consolidated entities in full or partial settlement of financial assets representing receivables from third parties and those assets expected to be held for continuing use.

Property, plant and equipment for own use are presented in the consolidated balance sheets at acquisition cost, less any accumulated depreciation and, where appropriate, any estimated impairment losses resulting from comparing this net carrying amount of each item with its corresponding recoverable amount.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, on the basis of the acquisition cost of the assets less their residual value; the land is considered to have an indefinite life and is therefore not depreciated.

The tangible asset depreciation charges are recognized in the accompanying consolidated income statements under the heading “Depreciation” (see Note 45) and are based on the application of the following depreciation rates (determined on the basis of the average years of estimated useful life of the various assets):

Type of Assets |  | Annual Percentage
Buildings for own use |  |  |  | 1% - 4%
Furniture |  |  |  | 8% - 10%
Fixtures |  |  |  | 6% - 12%
Office supplies and hardware |  |  |  | 8% - 25%

The BBVA Group’s criteria for determining the recoverable amount of these assets, in particular buildings for own use, is based on independent appraisals that are no more than 3-5 years old at most, unless there are indications of impairment.

At each reporting date, the Group entities analyze whether there are internal or external indicators that a tangible asset may be impaired. When there is evidence of impairment, the Group analyzes whether this impairment actually exists by comparing the asset’s net carrying amount with its recoverable amount (as the higher between its recoverable amount less disposal costs and its value in use). When the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down to the recoverable amount and depreciation charges going forward are adjusted to reflect the asset’s remaining useful life.

Similarly, if there is any indication that the value of a tangible asset has been recovered, the consolidated entities will estimate the recoverable amounts of the asset and recognize it in the consolidated income statement, recording the reversal of the impairment loss registered in previous years and thus adjusting future depreciation charges. Under no circumstances may the reversal of an impairment loss on an asset raise its carrying amount above that which it would have if no impairment losses had been recognized in prior years.

Running and maintenance expenses relating to tangible assets held for own use are recognized as an expense in the year they are incurred and recognized in the consolidated income statements under the heading “Administration costs - Other administrative expenses - Property, fixtures and equipment” (see Note 44.2).

Other assets leased out under an operating lease

The criteria used to recognize the acquisition cost of assets leased out under operating leases, to calculate their depreciation and their respective estimated useful lives and to recognize the impairment losses on them, are the same as those described in relation to tangible assets for own use.

Investment properties

The heading “Tangible assets - Investment properties” in the consolidated balance sheets reflects the net values (purchase cost minus the corresponding accumulated depreciation and, if appropriate, estimated impairment losses) of the land, buildings and other structures that are held either to earn rentals or for capital appreciation through sale and that are neither expected to be sold off in the ordinary course of business nor are destined for own use (see Note 17).

The criteria used to recognize the acquisition cost of investment properties, calculate their depreciation and their respective estimated useful lives and recognize the impairment losses on them, are the same as those described in relation to tangible assets held for own use.

F-24

##### Table of Contents

The BBVA Group’s criteria for determining the recoverable amount of these assets is based on independent appraisals that are no more than one year old at most, unless there are indications of impairment.

2.2.6 | Inventories

The balance under the heading “Other assets - Inventories” in the consolidated balance sheets mainly includes the land and other properties that the BBVA Group’s real estate entities hold for development and sale as part of their real estate development activities (see Note 20).

The cost of inventories includes those costs incurred in during their acquisition and development, as well as other direct and indirect costs incurred in getting them to their current condition and location.

In the case of the cost of real-estate assets accounted for as inventories, the cost is comprised of: the acquisition cost of the land, the cost of urban planning and construction, non-recoverable taxes and costs corresponding to construction supervision, coordination and management. Borrowing cost incurred during the year form part of cost, provided that the inventories require more than a year to be in a condition to be sold.

Properties purchased from customers in distress, which the Group manages for sale, are measured at the acquisition date and any subsequent time, at either their related carrying amount or the fair value of the property (less costs to sell), whichever is lower. The carrying amount at acquisition date of these properties is defined as the balance pending collection on those assets that originated said purchases (net of provisions).

Impairment

The amount of any subsequent adjustment due to inventory valuation for reasons such as damage, obsolescence, reduction in sale price to its net realizable value, as well as losses for other reasons and, if appropriate, subsequent recoveries of value up to the limit of the initial cost value, are registered under the heading “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on non-financial assets” in the accompanying consolidated income statements (see Note 48) for the year in which they are incurred.

In the case of Real-Estate assets above mentioned, if the fair value less costs to sell is lower than the carrying amount of the loan recognized in the consolidated balance sheet, a loss is recognized under the heading “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on non-financial assets” in the consolidated income statement for the period. In the case of real-estate assets accounted for as inventories, the BBVA Group’s criterion for determining their net realizable value is mainly based on independent appraisals no more than one year old, or less if there are indications of impairment.

Inventory sales

In sale transactions, the carrying amount of inventories is derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet and recognized as an expense under the income statement heading “Other operating expenses – Changes in inventories” in the year in which the income from its sale is recognized. This income is recognized under the heading “Other operating income – Financial income from non-financial services” in the consolidated income statements (see Note 42).

2.2.7 | Business combinations

A business combination is a transaction, or any other deal, by which the Group obtains control of one or more businesses. It is accounted for by applying the acquisition method.

According to this method, the acquirer has to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed, including those that the acquired entity had not recognized in the accounts. The method involves the measurement of the consideration received for the business combination and its allocation to the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities measured according to their fair value, at the purchase date, as well as the recognition of any non-controlling participation (minority interests) that may arise from the transaction.

In a business combination achieved in stages, the acquirer shall remeasure its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss, if any, in profit or loss under the heading “Gains (losses) on derecognized of non-financial assets and subsidiaries, net” of the Consolidated Income Statements. In prior reporting periods, the acquirer may have recognized changes in the value of its equity interest in the acquiree in other comprehensive income. If so, the amount that was recognized in other comprehensive income shall be recognized on the same basis as would be required if the acquirer had disposed directly of the previously held equity interest.

F-25

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the acquirer shall recognize an asset in the consolidated balance sheet under the heading “Intangible asset - Goodwill” if on the acquisition date there is a positive difference between:

● |  | the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of all the non-controlling interests and the fair value of stock previously held in the acquired business; and

● |  | the net fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

If this difference is negative, it shall be recognized directly in the income statement under the heading “Gain on Bargain Purchase in business combinations”.

Non-controlling interests in the acquired entity may be measured in two ways: either at their fair value; or at the proportional percentage of net assets identified in the acquired entity. The method of valuing non-controlling interest may be elected in each business combination. BBVA Group has always elected for the second method.

2.2.8 | Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents a portion of consideration transferred in advance by the acquiring entity for the future economic benefits from assets that cannot be individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill is never amortized. It is subject periodically to an impairment analysis, and is written off if there has been impairment.

Goodwill is assigned to one or more cash-generating units that expect to be the beneficiaries of the synergies derived from the business combinations. The cash-generating units represent the Group’s smallest identifiable asset groups that generate cash flows for the Group and that are largely independent of the flows generated from the Group’s other assets or groups of assets. Each unit or units to which goodwill is allocated:

● |  | is the lowest level at which the entity manages goodwill internally.

● |  | is not larger than an operating segment.

The cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment (including the allocated goodwill in their carrying amount). This analysis is performed at least annually or more frequently if there is any indication of impairment.

For the purpose of determining the impairment of a cash-generating unit to which a part of goodwill has been allocated, the carrying amount of that cash-generating unit, adjusted by the theoretical amount of the goodwill attributable to the non-controlling interests, in the event they are not valued at fair value, is compared with its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit is equal to the fair value less sale costs and its value in use, whichever is greater. Value in use is calculated as the discounted value of the cash flow projections that the unit’s management estimates and is based on the latest budgets approved for the coming years. The main assumptions used in its calculation are: a sustainable growth rate to extrapolate the cash flows indefinitely, and the discount rate used to discount the cash flows, which is equal to the cost of the capital assigned to each cash-generating unit, and equivalent to the sum of the risk-free rate plus a risk premium inherent to the cash-generating unit being evaluated for impairment.

If the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit exceeds the related recoverable amount, the Group recognizes an impairment loss; the resulting loss is apportioned by reducing, first, the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to that unit and, second, if there are still impairment losses remaining to be recognized, the carrying amount of the remainder of the assets. This is done by allocating the remaining loss in proportion to the carrying amount of each of the assets in the unit. In the event the non-controlling interests are measured at fair value, the deterioration of goodwill attributable to non-controlling interests will be recognized. In any case, an impairment loss recognized for goodwill shall not be reversed in a subsequent period.

Goodwill impairment losses are recognized under the heading “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on non-financial assets – Intangible assets” in the consolidated income statements (see Note 48).

Other intangible assets

These assets may have an indefinite useful life if, based on an analysis of all relevant factors, it is concluded that there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash flows for the consolidated entities. In all other cases they have a finite useful life.

F-26

##### Table of Contents

Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized according to the duration of this useful life, using methods similar to those used to depreciate tangible assets. The defined useful time intangible asset is made up mainly of IT applications acquisition costs which have a useful life of 3 to 5 years. The depreciation charge of these assets is recognized in the accompanying consolidated income statements under the heading “Depreciation” (see Note 45).

The consolidated entities recognize any impairment loss on the carrying amount of these assets with charge to the heading “Impairment or (-) reversal of impairment on non - financial assets- Intangible assets” in the accompanying consolidated income statements (see Note 48). The criteria used to recognize the impairment losses on these assets and, where applicable, the recovery of impairment losses recognized in prior years, are similar to those used for tangible assets.

2.2.9 | Insurance and reinsurance contracts

The assets of the BBVA Group’s insurance subsidiaries are recognized according to their nature under the corresponding headings of the consolidated balance sheets and the initial recognition and valuation is carried out according to the criteria set out in IFRS 4.

The heading “Reinsurance assets” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets includes the amounts that the consolidated insurance subsidiaries are entitled to receive under the reinsurance contracts entered into by them with third parties and, more specifically, the share of the reinsurer in the technical provisions recognized by the consolidated insurance subsidiaries.

The heading “Liabilities under insurance contracts” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets includes the technical provisions for direct insurance and inward reinsurance recognized by the consolidated insurance subsidiaries to cover claims arising from insurance contracts in force at period-end (see Note 23).

The income or expenses reported by the BBVA Group’s consolidated insurance subsidiaries on their insurance activities is recognized, in accordance with their nature, in the corresponding items of the consolidated income statements.

The consolidated insurance entities of the BBVA Group recognize the amounts of the premiums written to the income statement and a charge for the estimated cost of the claims that will be incurred at their final settlement to their consolidated income statements. At the close of each year the amounts collected and unpaid, as well as the costs incurred and unpaid, are accrued.

The most significant provisions registered by consolidated insurance entities with respect to insurance policies issued by them are set out by their nature in Note 23.

According to the type of product, the provisions may be as follows:

● |  | Life insurance provisions:

Represents the value of the net obligations undertaken with the life insurance policyholder. These provisions include:

| – | Provisions for unearned premiums. These are intended for the accrual, at the date of calculation, of the premiums written. Their balance reflects the portion of the premiums received until the closing date that has to be allocated to the period from the closing date to the end of the insurance policy period.

| – | Mathematical reserves: Represents the value of the life insurance obligations of the insurance entities at year-end, net of the policyholder’s obligations, arising from life insurance contracted.

● |  | Non-life insurance provisions:

| – | Provisions for unearned premiums. These provisions are intended for the accrual, at the date of calculation, of the premiums written. Their balance reflects the portion of the premiums received until year-end that has to be allocated to the period between the year-end and the end of the policy period.

| – | Provisions for unexpired risks: The provision for unexpired risks supplements the provision for unearned premiums by the amount by which that provision is not sufficient to reflect the assessed risks and expenses to be covered by the consolidated insurance subsidiaries in the policy period not elapsed at year-end.

● |  | Provision for claims:

This reflects the total amount of the outstanding obligations arising from claims incurred prior to year-end. Insurance subsidiaries calculate this provision as the difference between the total estimated or certain cost of the claims not yet reported, settled or paid, and the total amounts already paid in relation to these claims.

F-27

##### Table of Contents

● |  | Provision for bonuses and rebates:

This provision includes the amount of the bonuses accruing to policyholders, insurees or beneficiaries and the premiums to be returned to policyholders or insurees, as the case may be, based on the behavior of the risk insured, to the extent that such amounts have not been individually assigned to each of them.

● |  | Technical provisions for reinsurance ceded:

Calculated by applying the criteria indicated above for direct insurance, taking account of the assignment conditions established in the reinsurance contracts in force.

● |  | Other technical provisions:

Insurance entities have recognized provisions to cover the probable mismatches in the market reinvestment interest rates with respect to those used in the valuation of the technical provisions.

The BBVA Group controls and monitors the exposure of the insurance subsidiaries to financial risk and, to this end, uses internal methods and tools that enable it to measure credit risk and market risk and to establish the limits for these risks.

2.2.10 | Tax assets and liabilities

Expenses on corporate income tax applicable to the BBVA Group’s Spanish entities and on similar income taxes applicable to consolidated foreign entities are recognized in the consolidated income statement, except when they result from transactions on which the profits or losses are recognized directly in equity, in which case the related tax effect is also recognized in equity. The total corporate income tax expense is calculated by aggregating the current tax arising from the application of the corresponding tax rate to the tax for the year (after deducting the tax credits or discounts allowable for tax purposes) and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities recognized in the consolidated income statement.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities include temporary differences, defined as the amounts to be payable or recoverable in future years arising from the differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax bases (the “tax value”), and tax loss and tax credit or discount carry forwards (see Note 19).

The “Tax Assets” line item in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets includes the amount of all the assets of a tax nature, and distinguishes between: “Current” (amounts recoverable by tax in the next twelve months) and “Deferred” (which includes the amount of tax to be recovered in future years, including those arising from tax losses or credits for deductions or rebates that can be compensated). The “Tax Liabilities” line item in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets includes the amount of all the liabilities of a tax nature, except for provisions for taxes, broken down into: “Current” (income tax payable on taxable profit for the year and other taxes payable in the next twelve months) and “Deferred” (the amount of corporate tax payable in subsequent years).

Deferred tax liabilities attributable to taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities are recognized as such, except where the Group can control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is unlikely that it will reverse in the future. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is considered probable that the consolidated entities will have sufficient taxable profits in the future against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized and are not from the initial recognition (except in the case of a business combination) of other assets or liabilities in a transaction that does not affect the fiscal outcome or the accounting result.

The deferred tax assets and liabilities recognized are reassessed by the consolidated entities at each balance sheet date in order to ascertain whether they are still current, and the appropriate adjustments are made on the basis of the findings of the analyses performed. In those circumstances in which it is unclear how a specific requirement of the tax law applies to a particular transaction or circumstance, and the acceptability of the definitive tax treatment depends on the decisions taken by the relevant taxation authority in future, the entity recognizes current and deferred tax liabilities and assets considering whether it is probable or not that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. Thus, if the entity concludes that it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the entity uses the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the taxation authorities.

The income and expenses directly recognized in equity that do not increase or decrease taxable income are accounted for as temporary differences.

2.2.11 | Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities

The heading “Provisions” in the consolidated balance sheets includes amounts recognized to cover the BBVA Group’s current obligations arising as a result of past events. These are certain in terms of nature but uncertain in terms of amount and/or settlement date. The settlement of these obligations is deemed likely to entail an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits (see Note 24). The obligations may arise in connection with legal or contractual provisions, valid expectations formed by Group entities relative to third parties in relation to the assumption of certain responsibilities or through virtually certain developments of particular aspects of the regulations applicable to the operation of the entities; and, specifically, future legislation to which the Group will certainly be subject. The provisions are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets when each and every one of the following requirements is met:

● |  | They represent a current obligation that has arisen from a past event.

● |  | At the date referred to by the Consolidated Financial Statements, there is more probability that the obligation will have to be met than that it will not.

● |  | It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.

● |  | The amount of the obligation can be reasonably estimated.

Among other items, these provisions include the commitments made to employees by some of the Group entities (mentioned in Note 2.2.12), as well as provisions for tax and legal litigation.

Contingent assets are possible assets that arise from past events and whose existence is conditional on, and will be confirmed only by, the occurrence or non-occurrence of events beyond the control of the Group. Contingent assets are not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet or in the consolidated income statement; however, they will be disclosed, should they exist, in the Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, provided that it is more likely than not that these assets will give rise to an increase in resources embodying economic benefits.

Contingent liabilities are possible obligations of the Group that arise from past events and whose existence is conditional on the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events beyond the control of the Group. They also include the existing obligations of the Group when it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle them; or when, in extremely rare cases, their amount cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet or the income statement (excluding contingent liabilities from business combination) but are reported in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.2.12 | Pensions and other post-employment commitments

Below we provide a description of the most significant accounting criteria relating to post-employment and other employee benefit commitments assumed by BBVA Group entities (see Note 25).

Short-term employee benefits

Benefits for current active employees which are accrued and settled during the year and for which a provision is not required in the entity´s accounts. These include wages and salaries, social security charges and other personnel expenses.

Costs are charged and recognized under the heading “Administration costs – Personnel expenses – Other personnel expenses” of the consolidated income statement (see Note 44.1).

Post-employment benefits – Defined-contribution plans

The Group sponsors defined-contribution plans for the majority of its active employees. The amount of these benefits is established as a percentage of remuneration and/or as a fixed amount.

The contributions made to these plans in each period by BBVA Group entities are charged and recognized under the heading “Administration costs – Personnel expenses – Defined-contribution plan expense” of the consolidated income statement (see Note 44.1).

F-29

##### Table of Contents

Post-employment benefits – Defined-benefit plans

Some Group entities maintain pension commitments with employees who have already retired or taken early retirement, certain closed groups of active employees still accruing defined benefit pensions, and in-service death and disability benefits provided to most active employees. These commitments are covered by insurance contracts, pension funds and internal provisions.

In addition, some of the Spanish entities have offered certain employees the option to retire before their normal retirement age, recognizing the necessary provisions to cover the costs of the associated benefit commitments, which include both the liability for the benefit payments due as well as the contributions payable to external pension funds during the early retirement period.

Furthermore, certain Group entities provide welfare and medical benefits which extend beyond the date of retirement of the employees entitled to the benefits.

All of these commitments are quantified based on actuarial valuations, with the amounts recorded under the heading “Provisions – Provisions for pensions and similar obligations” and determined as the difference between the value of the defined-benefit commitments and the fair value of plan assets at the date of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (see Note 25).

Current service cost are charged and recognized under the heading “Administration costs – Personnel expenses – Defined-benefit plan expense” of the consolidated income statement (see Note 44.1).

Interest credits/charges relating to these commitments are charged and recognized under the headings “Interest income” and “Interest expense” of the consolidated income statement (see Note 37).

Past service costs arising from benefit plan changes as well as early retirements granted during the period are recognized under the heading “Provisions or reversals of provisions” of the consolidated income statement (see Note 46).

Other long-term employee benefits

In addition to the above commitments, certain Group entities provide long service awards to their employees, consisting of monetary amounts or periods of vacation granted upon completion of a number of years of qualifying service.

These commitments are quantified based on actuarial valuations and the amounts recorded under the heading “Provisions – Other long-term employee benefits” of the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 24).

Valuation of commitments: actuarial assumptions and recognition of gains/losses

The present value of these commitments is determined based on individual member data. Active employee costs are determined using the “projected unit credit” method, which treats each period of service as giving rise to an additional unit of benefit and values each unit separately.

In establishing the actuarial assumptions we taken into account that:

● |  | They should be unbiased, i.e. neither unduly optimistic nor excessively conservative.

● |  | They should be mutually compatible and adequately reflect the existing relationship between economic variables such as price inflation, expected wage increases, discount rates and the expected return on plan assets, etc. Future wage and benefit levels should be based on market expectations, at the balance sheet date, for the period over which the obligations are to be settled.

● |  | The interest rate used to discount benefit commitments is determined by reference to market yields, at the balance sheet date, on high quality bonds.

The BBVA Group recognizes actuarial gains/losses relating to early retirement benefits, long service awards and other similar items under the heading “Provisions or reversal of provisions” of the consolidated income statement for the period in which they arise (see Note 46). Actuarial gains/losses relating to pension and medical benefits are directly charged and recognized under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income – Items that will not be reclassified to profit or loss – Actuarial gains or (-) losses on defined benefit pension plans” of equity in the consolidated balance sheet (see Note 30).

2.2.13 | Equity-settled share-based payment transactions

Provided they constitute the delivery of such equity instruments following the completion of a specific period of services, equity-settled share-based payment transactions are recognized as an expense for services being provided by employees, by way of a balancing entry under the heading “Shareholders’ equity – Other equity” in the consolidated balance sheet (Note 44.1.1). These services are measured at fair value for the employees services received, unless such fair value cannot be calculated reliably. In such case, they are measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted, taking into account the date on which the commitments were granted and the terms and other conditions included in the commitments.

When the initial compensation agreement includes what may be considered market conditions among its terms, any changes in these conditions will not be reflected in the consolidated income statement, as these have already been accounted for in calculating the initial fair value of the equity instruments. Non-market vesting conditions are not taken into account when estimating the initial fair value of equity instruments, but they are taken into account when determining the number of equity instruments to be issued. This will be recognized on the consolidated income statement with the corresponding increase in total equity.

2.2.14 | Termination benefits

Termination benefits are recognized in the accounts when the BBVA Group agrees to terminate employment contracts with its employees and has established a detailed plan.

2.2.15 | Treasury stock

The value of common stock issued by the BBVA Group’s entities and held by them - basically, shares and derivatives on the Bank’s shares held by some consolidated entities that comply with the requirements to be recognized as equity instruments - are recognized as a decrease to net equity, under the heading “Shareholders’ funds - Treasury stock” in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 29).

These financial assets are recognized at acquisition cost, and the gains or losses arising on their disposal are credited or debited, as appropriate, to the heading “Shareholders’ funds - Retained earnings” in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 28).

2.2.16 | Foreign-currency transactions and exchange differences

The BBVA Group’s functional currency, and thus the currency in which the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are presented, is the euro. Thus, all balances and transactions denominated in currencies other than the euro are deemed to be denominated in “foreign currency”.

Conversion to euros of the balances held in foreign currency is performed in two consecutive stages:

● |  | Conversion of the foreign currency to the functional currency (currency of the main economic environment in which the entity operates); and

● |  | Conversion to euros of the balances held in the functional currencies of the entities whose functional currency is not the euro.

Conversion of the foreign currency to the functional currency

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies carried out by the consolidated entities (or accounted for using the equity method) are initially accounted for in their respective currencies. Subsequently, the monetary balances in foreign currencies are converted to their respective functional currencies using the exchange rate at the close of the financial year. In addition,

● |  | Non-monetary items valued at their historical cost are converted to the functional currency at the exchange rate in force on the purchase date.

● |  | Non-monetary items valued at their fair value are converted at the exchange rate in force on the date on which such fair value was determined.

● |  | Income and expenses are converted at the period’s average exchange rates for all the operations carried out during the period. When applying this criterion the BBVA Group considers whether significant variations have taken place in exchange rates during the financial year which, owing to their impact on the statements as a whole, require the application of exchange rates as of the date of the transaction instead of such average exchange rates.

F-31

##### Table of Contents

The exchange differences produced when converting the balances in foreign currency to the functional currency of the consolidated entities are generally recognized under the heading “Exchange differences (net)” in the consolidated income statements (see Note 41). However, the exchange differences in non-monetary items, measured at fair value, are recognized temporarily in equity under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Exchange differences” in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 30).

Conversion of functional currencies to euros

The balances in the interim financial statements of consolidated entities whose functional currency is not the euro are converted to euros as follows:

● |  | Assets and liabilities: at the average spot exchange rates as of the date of each of the interim consolidated financial statements.

● |  | Income and expenses and cash flows are converted by applying the exchange rate in force on the date of the transaction, and the average exchange rate for the financial year may be used, unless it has undergone significant variations.

● |  | Equity items: at the historical exchange rates.

The exchange differences arising from the conversion to euros of balances in the functional currencies of the consolidated entities whose functional currency is not the euro are recognized under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income – Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Exchange differences” in the interim consolidated balance sheets (Notes 30 and 31 respectively). Meanwhile, the differences arising from the conversion to euros of the interim financial statements of entities accounted for by the equity method are recognized under the heading “ Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss - Entities accounted for using the equity method” (Note 30) until the item to which they relate is derecognized, at which time they are recognized in the income statement.

The breakdown of the main consolidated balances in foreign currencies, with reference to the most significant foreign currencies, is set forth in Appendix VII.

Venezuela

Local interim financial statements of the Group subsidiaries in Venezuela are expressed in Venezuelan Bolivar, and converted into euros for the interim consolidated financial statements, as indicated below, since Venezuela is a country with strong exchange restrictions and has different rates officially published:

● |  | On February 10, 2015, the Venezuelan government announced the creation of a new foreign-currency system called “Sistema Marginal de Divisas” (SIMADI).

● |  | The Group used the SIMADI exchange rate from March 2015 for the conversion of the financial statements of the Group companies located in Venezuela for their Consolidated Financial Statements. The SIMADI exchange rate started to reflect the exchange rate of actual transactions increasing rapidly to approximately 200 Venezuelan bolivars per U,S. dollar (approximately 218 Venezuelan bolivars per euro), however, from May, and during the second half of 2015 the trend was confirmed, the SIMADI exchange rate had hardly fluctuated, reaching as of December 31, 2015 216.3 Venezuelan bolivars per euro, which could be considered unrepresentative of the convertibility of the Venezuelan currency.

● |  | In February 2016, the Venezuelan government approved a new exchange rate agreement which sets two new mechanisms that regulate the purchase and sale of foreign currency (DICOM) and the suspension of the SIMADI exchange rate.

● |  | In May 2017, Venezuela Central Bank created el “Comité de Subastas de Divisas”, whose object is to administer, regulate and manage the DICOM, with autonomy for the exercise of its functions.

● |  | From December 31, 2015, the Board of Directors considers that the use of the new exchanges rates and, previously, SIMADI for converting bolivars into euros in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements does not reflect the true picture of the financial statements of the Group and the financial position of the Group subsidiaries in Venezuela.

● |  | Consequently, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Group has used in the conversion of the financial statements of these foreign exchange rates amounting to 4,302 and 1,893 Venezuelan bolivars per euro, respectively. These exchanges rates have been calculated taking into account the estimated evolution of inflation in Venezuela at those dates (122.2% and 300%, respectively) by the Research Service of the Group (see Note 2.2.20).

2.2.17 | Recognition of income and expenses

The most significant criteria used by the BBVA Group to recognize its income and expenses are as follows.

● |  | Interest income and expenses and similar items:

As a general rule, interest income and expenses and similar items are recognized on the basis of their period of accrual using the effective interest rate method. The financial fees and commissions that arise on the arrangement of loans and advances (basically origination and analysis fees) are deferred and recognized in the income statement over the expected life of the loan. The direct costs incurred in originating these loans and advances can be deducted from the amount of financial fees and commissions recognized. These fees are part of the effective interest rate for the loans and advances. Also dividends received from other entities are recognized as income when the consolidated entities’ right to receive them arises.

Once a debt instrument has been impaired, an interest income is recognized applying the effective interest rate used to discount the estimated recoverable cash flows on the carrying amount of the asset.

● |  | Commissions, fees and similar items:

Income and expenses relating to commissions and similar fees are recognized in the consolidated income statement using criteria that vary according to the nature of such items. The most significant items in this connection are:

F-33

##### Table of Contents

| - |  | Those relating to financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, which are recognized when collected/paid.

| - |  | Those arising from transactions or services that are provided over a period of time, which are recognized over the life of these transactions or services.

| - |  | Those relating to single acts, which are recognized when this single act is carried out.

● |  | Non-financial income and expenses:

These are recognized for accounting purposes on an accrual basis.

● |  | Deferred collections and payments:

These are recognized for accounting purposes at the amount resulting from discounting the expected cash flows at market rates.

2.2.18 | Sales and income from the provision of non-financial services

The heading “Other operating income” in the consolidated income statements includes the proceeds of the sales of assets and income from the services provided by the Group entities that are not financial institutions. In the case of the Group, these entities are mainly real estate and service entities (see Note 42).

2.2.19 | Leases

Lease contracts are classified as finance leases from the inception of the transaction, if they substantially transfer all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the asset forming the subject-matter of the contract. Leases other than finance leases are classified as operating leases.

When the consolidated entities act as the lessor of an asset in finance leases, the aggregate present values of the lease payments receivable from the lessee plus the guaranteed residual value (normally the exercise price of the lessee’s purchase option on expiration of the lease agreement) are recognized as financing provided to third parties and, therefore, are included under the heading “Loans and receivables” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (see Note 13).

When the consolidated entities act as lessors of an asset in operating leases, the acquisition cost of the leased assets is recognized under “Tangible assets – Property, plant and equipment – Other assets leased out under an operating lease” in the consolidated balance sheets (see Note 17). These assets are depreciated in line with the criteria adopted for items of tangible assets for own use, while the income arising from the lease arrangements is recognized in the consolidated income statements on a straight-line basis within “Other operating expenses” (see Note 42).

If a fair value sale and leaseback results in an operating lease, the profit or loss generated from the sale is recognized in the consolidated income statement at the time of sale. If such a transaction gives rise to a finance lease, the corresponding gains or losses are accrued over the lease period.

The assets leased out under operating lease contracts to other entities in the Group are treated in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as for own use, and thus rental expense and income is eliminated and the corresponding depreciation is recognized.

2.2.20 | Entities and branches located in countries with hyperinflationary economies

In order to assess whether an economy is under hyperinflation, the country’s economic environment is evaluated, analyzing whether certain circumstances exist, such as:

● |  | The country’s population prefers to keep its wealth or savings in non-monetary assets or in a relatively stable foreign currency;

● |  | Prices may be quoted in a relatively stable foreign currency;

● |  | Interest rates, wages and prices are linked to a price index;

● |  | The cumulative inflation rate over three years is approaching, or exceeds, 100%.

The fact that any of these circumstances is present will not be a decisive factor in considering an economy hyperinflationary, but it does provide some reasons to consider it as such.

F-34

##### Table of Contents

Since 2009, the economy of Venezuela can be considered hyperinflationary under the above criteria. As a result, the financial statements of the BBVA Group’s entities located in Venezuela have therefore been adjusted to correct for the effects of inflation in accordance with IAS 29 “ Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies”.

The breakdown of the General Price Index and the inflation index used as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 for the inflation restatement of the financial statements of the Group companies located in Venezuela is as follows:

General Price Index |  | June 2017 (**) |  |  | December 2016 (*) |
GPI |  |  |  |  |  |  | 9,431.60 |
Average GPI |  |  |  |  |  |  | 5,847.74 |
Inflation of the period |  |  | 122.2% |  |  |  | 300.0% |

(*) At the date of preparation of consolidated financial statements in 2016, the Venezuelan government had not released the official inflation figures. The Group had estimated the inflation rate applicable to December 31, 2016, based on the best estimate of BBVA Research of the Group (300%) in line with other estimates made by various international organizations.

(**) At the date of preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements, the Venezuelan government had not released the official inflation figures. As of June 30, 2017, as in the Annual Report of 2016, the group estimated the applicable inflation rate.

The losses recognized under the heading “Profit attributable to the parent company” in the accompanying consolidated income statement as a result of the adjustment for inflation on net monetary position of the Group entities in Venezuela amounted to €7.7 and €38.5 million in the first semester of 2017 and 2016 respectively.

2.3 | Recent IFRS pronouncements

Changes introduced in 2017

The following amendments to the IFRS standards or their interpretations (hereinafter “IFRIC”) came into force after January 1, 2017. They have not had a significant impact on the BBVA Group’s Consolidated Financial Statements corresponding to the period ended June 30, 2017.

IAS 12 – “Income Taxes. Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses”

The amendments made to IAS 12 clarify the requirements on recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealized losses. The following aspects are clarified:

| ● |  | An unrealized loss on a debt instrument measured at fair value gives rise to a deductible temporary difference regardless of whether the holder expects to recover its carrying amount by holding the debt instrument until maturity or by selling the debt instrument.

| ● |  | An entity assesses the utilization of deductible temporary differences in combination with other deductible temporary differences. In circumstances in which tax laws restricts the utilization of tax losses, an entity would assess a deferred tax asset in combination with other deferred tax assets of the appropriate type.

| ● |  | An entity’s estimate of future taxable profit can include the recovery of its assets for amounts more than their carrying amounts if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that it is probable that the entity will achieve this.

| ● |  | An entity’s estimate of future taxable profit excludes tax deductions resulting from the reversal of deductible temporary difference.

The European Union has not approved the adoption of the amendments.

IAS 7 – “Statement of Cash Flows. Disclosure Initiative”

The amendments to IAS 7 introduce the following new disclosure requirements related to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, to enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in those liabilities: changes from financing cash flows; changes arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses; the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates; changes in fair values; and other changes.

Liabilities arising from financing activities are liabilities for which cash flows were, or future cash flows will be, classified in the statement of cash flows as cash flows arising from financing activities. Additionally, the disclosure requirements also

F-35

##### Table of Contents

apply to changes in financial assets if cash flows from those financial assets were, or future cash flows will be, included in cash flows from financing activities.

The European Union has not approved the adoption of the amendments.

Annual improvements cycle to IFRSs 2014-2016 – Minor amendments to IFRS 12

The annual improvements cycle to IFRSs 2014-2016 includes minor changes and clarifications to IFRS 12 – Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities. The European Union has not still approved the adoption of the amendments, which is expected in the third quarter of 2017.

Standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective as of June 30, 2017

New International Financial Reporting Standards together with their interpretations had been published at the date of preparation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements, but are not obligatory as of June 30, 2017. Although in some cases the IASB permits early adoption before they come into force, the BBVA Group has not done so as of this date, as it is still analyzing the effects that will result from them.

IFRS 9 - “Financial instruments”

As of July, 24, 2014, IASB issued the IFRS 9 which will replace IAS 39 and includes a new classification and assessment requirements of financial assets and liabilities, impairment requirements of financial assets and hedge accounting policy.

| ● |  | Classification and assessment of financial assets and liabilities

The classification of financial assets will depend on the company’s business model used for management purposes and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows, resulting in the measurement of such financial assets at amortized cost, fair value with changes in other comprehensive income and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss, net.

The combined effect of applying the company’s business model and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows may result in differences in the stock of financial assets measured at amortized cost or at fair value compared to IAS 39, although the Group does not expect significant changes in this regard.

With regard to financial liabilities, the classification categories proposed by IFRS 9 are similar to those contained in IAS 39, so there should not be very significant differences except for the requirement to recognize changes in fair value related to own credit risk as a component of equity, in the case of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss.

Based on the analysis carried out, no significant changes are expected in the classification or valuation method of the financial assets and liabilities, maintaining a balance sheet structure similar to the current one.

| ● |  | Financial assets impairments

Impairment requirements will apply to financial assets measured at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income, and to lease receivables and certain loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts.

At initial recognition, an allowance is required for expected credit losses resulting from default events that may occur within the next 12 months (“12 month expected credit losses”).

In the event of a significant increase in credit risk, an allowance is required for expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of the financial instrument (“lifetime expected credit losses”).

The assessment of whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition should be performed for each reporting period by considering the change in the risk of default occurring over the remaining life of the financial instrument. The assessment of credit risk, and the estimation of expected credit losses, should be performed so that they are probability-weighted and unbiased and shall include all available information that is relevant to the assessment, including information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable expectations of future events and economic conditions at the reporting date.

For the purposes of the implementation of IFRS 9, the BBVA Group considers the following definitions:

Although IFRS 9 does not specifically define default, BBVA applies a definition of default that is consistent with the definition used for internal credit risk management purposes for the relevant financial instrument and consider qualitative indicators when appropriate. However, there is a rebuttable presumption that default does not occur later than when a financial asset is 90 days past due unless an entity has reasonable and supportable information to demonstrate that a more lagging default criterion is more appropriate. The definition of default used for these purposes shall be applied consistently to all financial instruments unless information that demonstrates that another default definition is more appropriate for a particular financial instrument becomes available.

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 financial asset is credit-impaired includes observable data about the following events:

| a) | Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower.

| b) | A breach of contract (e.g. a default or past due event).

| c) | A lender having granted a concession to the borrower – for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty – that the lender would not otherwise consider.

| d) | It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.

| e) | The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

| f) | The purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit losses.

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.

Significant increase in credit risk

Expected credit losses are based on 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses depending on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.

The objective of the impairment requirements is to recognize lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments for which there has been significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition (whether assessed on an individual or collective basis) considering all reasonable and supportable information, including that which is forward-looking.

In assessing whether credit risk has increased significantly, an entity should use the change in the risk of default occurring over the expected remaining life of the financial instrument, rather than the change in the magnitude of loss if the default were to occur (i.e. change in the amount of expected credit losses). Therefore, changes in loss given default (LGD) are not considered for this purpose, although they are incorporated in the resulting measurement of expected credit losses.

The assessment can be done both in an individual basis and in a collective basis (group of financial instruments with similar credit risk situation). Although the standard introduces a number of operational simplifications/practical expedients, the Groups does not expect to use them as a general rule.

Stage 1– without significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition

According to IFRS 9, financial assets which are not considered to have significantly increased in credit risk have loss allowances measured at an amount equal to 12 months expected credit losses.

Stage 2– significantly increased in credit risk since initial recognition

In accordance with IFRS 9, when the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, the entity shall measure a loss allowance for the financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.

Stage 3 - Impaired

When there is objective evidence that the loan is credit impaired, the financial asset is transferred to this category.

As a result, the goal is for the recognition and measurement of impairment to be more proactive and forward-looking than under the current incurred loss model of IAS 39.

| ● |  | Hedge accounting

IFRS 9 will also affect hedge accounting, because the focus of the Standard is different from that of the current IAS 39, as it tries to align the accounting requirements with economic risk management. IFRS 9 will also permit to apply hedge accounting to a wider range of risks and hedging instruments. The Standard does not address the accounting for macro hedging strategies. To avoid any conflict between the current macro hedge accounting and the new general hedge accounting requirements, IFRS 9 includes an accounting policy choice to continue applying hedge accounting according to IAS 39.

Macro-hedges accounting is being developed as a separate project. The companies have the option to continue applying the hedge accounting as established by IAS39 until the project is completed. According to the analysis carried out to date, the Group expects to continue applying IAS 39 to its hedge accounting.

The IASB has established January 1, 2018, as the mandatory application date, with the possibility of early adoption.

During 2016 and the first semester of 2017, the Group has been analyzing this new Standard and the implications it will have in 2018 on the classification of portfolios and the valuation models for financial instruments, focusing on impairment loss models for financial assets through expected loss models.

In the second semester of 2017, the Group will continue working on the definition of accounting policies, on the implementation of the Standard, which has implications both on the financial statements and on the Group´s daily operations (initial and subsequent risk assessment, changes in systems, management metrics, etc.), and also on the models used for the presentation of financial statements.

As of the date of preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group does not have an estimation of the quantitative impact that this Standard will have on January 1, 2018 when it will come into force.

Amended IFRS 7 - “Financial instruments: Disclosures”

The IASB modified IFRS 7 in December 2011 to include new disclosures on financial instruments that entities will have to provide as soon as they apply IFRS 9 for the first time.

IFRS 15 - “Revenue from contracts with customers”

IFRS 15 contains the principles that an entity shall apply to account for revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer.

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, in accordance with contractually agreed. It is considered that the good or service is transferred when the customer obtains control over it.

The new Standard replaces IAS 18 - Revenue IAS 11 - Construction Contracts, IFRIC 13 - Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 - Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 - Transfers of Assets from Customers and SIC 31 – Revenue-Transactions Involving Advertising Services.

This Standard will be applied to the accounting years starting on or after January 1, 2018, although early adoption is permitted.

IFRS 15 – “Clarifications to IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

The amendments to the Revenue Standard clarify how some of the underlying principles of the new Standard should be applied. Specifically, they clarify how to:

| ● |  | Identify a performance obligation (the promise to transfer a good or a service to a customer) in a contract.

F-38

##### Table of Contents

| ● |  | Determine whether a company is a principal (the provider of a good or service) or an agent (responsible for arranging for the good or service to be provided) and

| ● |  | Determine whether the revenue from granting a license should be recognized at a point in time or over time.

In addition to the clarifications, the amendments include two additional reliefs to reduce cost and complexity for a company when it first applies the new Standard.

The amendments will be applied at the same time as the IFRS 15, i.e. to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, although early application is permitted.

Amended IFRS 10 – “Consolidated Financial Statements” and Amended IAS 28 - “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”

The amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 establish that when an entity sells or transfers assets are considered a business (including its consolidated subsidiaries) to an associate or joint venture of the entity, the latter will have to recognize any gains or losses derived from such transaction in its entirety. Notwithstanding, if the assets sold or transferred are not considered a business, the entity will have to recognize the gains or losses derived only to the extent of the interests in the associate or joint venture with unrelated investors.

These changes will be applicable to accounting periods beginning on the effective date, still to be determined, although early adoption is allowed.

IFRS 16 – “Leases”

On January 13, 2016 the IASB issued the IFRS 16 which will replace IAS 17. The new standard introduces a single lessee accounting model and will require a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of 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.

With regard 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 standard will be applied to the accounting years starting on or after January 1, 2019, although early application is permitted if IFRS 15 is also applied.

IFRS 2 – “Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions”

The amendments made to IFRS 2 provide requirements on three different aspects:

| ● |  | When measuring the fair value of a cash-settled share-based payment vesting conditions, other than market conditions, shall be taken into account by adjusting the number of awards included in the measurement of the liability arising from the transaction.

| ● |  | A transaction in which an entity settles a share-base payment arrangement net by withholding a specified portion of the equity instruments to meet a statutory tax withholding obligation will be classified as equity settled in its entirety if, without the net settlement feature, the entire share-based payment would otherwise be classified as equity-settled.

| ● |  | In case of modification of a share-based payment from cash-settled to equity-settled, the modification will be accounted for derecognizing the original liability and recognizing in equity the fair value of the equity instruments granted to the extent that services have been rendered up to the modification date; any difference will be recognized immediately in profit or loss.

These amendments will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, although early application is permitted.

Amended IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts”

The amendments made to IFRS 4 address the temporary accounting consequences of the different effective dates of IFRS 9 and the forthcoming insurance contracts Standard, by introducing two optional solutions:

● |  | The deferral approach or temporary exemption, that gives entities whose predominant activities are connected with insurance the option to defer the application of IFRS 9 and continue applying IAS 39 until 2021.

● |  | The overlay approach, that gives all issuers of insurance contracts the option to recognize in other comprehensive income, rather than profit or loss, the additional accounting volatility that may arise from applying IFRS 9 compared to applying IAS 39 before applying the forthcoming insurance contracts Standard.

These modifications will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, although early application is permitted.

Annual improvements cycle to IFRSs 2014-2016 – Minor amendments to IFRS 1 and IAS 28

The annual improvements cycle to IFRSs 2014-2016 includes minor changes and clarifications to IFRS 1- Frist-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards and IAS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, which will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, although early application is permitted to amendments to IAS 28.

IFRIC 22- Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration

The Interpretation addresses how to determine the date of the transaction, and thus, the exchange rate to use to translate the related asset, expense or income on initial recognition, in circumstances in which a non-monetary prepayment asset or a non-monetary deferred income liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration is recognized in advance of the related asset, income or expense. It requires that the date of the transaction will be the date on which an entity initially recognizes the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability.

If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, the entity shall determine a date of the transaction for each payment or receipt of advance consideration.

The interpretation will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, although early application is permitted.

Amended IAS 40 – Investment Property

The amendment states that an entity shall transfer a property to, or from, investment property when, and only when, there is evidence of a change in use. A change in use occurs when the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property.

The amendments will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, although early adoption is allowed.

IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts

IFRS 17 establishes the principles for the accounting for insurance contracts and supersedes IFRS 4. The new standard introduces a single accounting model for all insurance contracts and requires the entities to use updated assumptions.

An entity shall divide the contracts into groups and recognize and measure groups of insurance contracts at the total of:

● |  | the fulfilment cash flows, that comprises the estimate of future cash flows, an adjustment to reflect the time value of money and the financial risk associated with the future cash flows and a risk adjustment for non-financial risk; and

● |  | the contractual service margin that represents the unearned profit.

F-40

##### Table of Contents

The amounts recognized in the statement of financial performance shall be disaggregated into insurance revenue, insurance service expenses and insurance finance income or expenses. Insurance revenue and insurance service expenses shall exclude any investment components. Insurance revenue shall be recognized over the period the entity provides insurance coverage and in proportion to the value of the provision of coverage that the insurer provides in the period.

The new Standard will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021, although early adoption is allowed.

IFRIC 23– Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

IFRIC 23 provides guidance on how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments.

If the entity considers that it is probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the Interpretation requires the entity to determine taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits or tax rates consistently with the tax treatment used or planned to be used in its income tax filings.

If the entity considers that it is not probable that the taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the Interpretation requires the entity to use the most likely amount or the expected value (sum of the probability. weighted amounts in a range of possible outcomes) in determining taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates. The method used should be the method that the entity expects to provide the better prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty.

The interpretation will be applied to the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, although early application is permitted.

4. | Shareholder remuneration system

In accordance with BBVA’s shareholder remuneration policy communicated in October 2013, which established the distribution of an annual pay-out of between 35% and 40% of the profits obtained in each financial year and the progressive reduction of the remuneration via “Dividend Options”, so that the shareholders’ remuneration would ultimately be fully in cash, on February 1, 2017 BBVA announced that it was expected to be proposed for the consideration of the competent governing bodies the approval of a capital increase to be charged to voluntary reserves for the instrumentation of one “Dividend Option” in 2017, being the subsequent shareholders’ remunerations that could be approved fully in cash.

This fully in cash shareholders’ remuneration policy would be composed, for each financial year, of an interim distribution on account of the dividend of such financial year (which is expected to be paid in October) and a final dividend (which would be paid once the financial year has ended and the profit allocation has been approved, which is expected for April), subject to the applicable authorizations by the competent governing bodies.

Shareholder remuneration scheme

During 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 a shareholder remuneration system called the “Dividend Option” was implemented.

Under such remuneration scheme, BBVA offered its shareholders the possibility to receive all or part of their remuneration in the form of BBVA newly-issued ordinary shares; whilst maintaining the possibility for BBVA shareholders to receive their entire remuneration in cash by selling the free allocation rights assigned to each holder in each capital increase either to BBVA (in execution of the commitment assumed by BBVA to acquire the free allocation rights attributed to the shareholders at a guaranteed fixed price) or by selling their free allocation rights on the market at the prevailing market price at that time. However, the execution of the commitment assumed by BBVA was only available to whoever had been originally assigned such rights of free allocation and only in connection with the rights of free allocation initially allocated at such time.

On March 29, 2017, the Board of Directors of BBVA resolved to execute the capital increase to be charged to voluntary reserves approved by the AGM held on March 17, 2017, under agenda item three, to implement a “Dividend Option” this year. As a result of this increase, the Bank’s share capital increased by €49,622,955.62 by the issuance of 101,271,338 newly-issued ordinary shares of BBVA at 0.49 euros par value. 83.28% of the right owners opted to receive newly-issued BBVA ordinary shares. The other 16.72% of the right owners opted to sell the rights of free allocation assigned to them to BBVA, and as a result, BBVA acquired 1,097,962,903 rights (at a gross price of €0.131 each) for a total amount of €143,833,140.29. This amount is registered in “Total Equity-Dividends and Remuneration” of the consolidated balance sheet as of June, 30, 2017 (see Note 26).

On September 28, 2016, the Board of Directors of BBVA approved the execution of the second of the share capital increases to be charged to voluntary reserves, as agreed by the AGM held on March 11, 2016. As a result of this increase, the Bank’s share capital increased by €42,266,085.33 through the issuance of 86,257,317 BBVA newly-issued ordinary shares at a €0.49 par value each. 87.85% of the right owners have opted to receive newly-issued BBVA ordinary shares. The other 12.15% of the right owners opted to sell the rights of free allocation assigned to them to BBVA, and as a result, BBVA acquired 787,374,942 rights for a total amount of €62,989,995.36. The price at which BBVA has acquired such rights of free allocation (in execution of said commitment) was €0.08 per right, registered in “Total Equity-Dividends and Remuneration” of the consolidated balance sheet as of December, 31, 2016 (see Note 26).

On March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors of BBVA approved the execution of the first of the share capital increases to be charged to voluntary reserves, as agreed by the AGM held on March 11, 2016. As a result of this increase, the Bank’s share capital increased by €55,702,125.43 through the issuance of 113,677,807 BBVA newly-issued ordinary shares at a €0.49 par value each. 82.13% of the right owners have opted to receive newly-issued BBVA ordinary shares. The other 17.87% of the right owners opted to sell the rights of free allocation assigned to them to BBVA, and as a result, BBVA acquired 1,137,500,965 rights for a total amount of €146,737,624.49. The price at which BBVA has acquired such rights of free allocation (in execution of said commitment) was €0.129 per right, registered in “Total Equity-Dividends and Remuneration” of the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 (see Note 26).

Dividends

The Board of Directors, at its meeting held on June 22, 2016, approved the payment in cash of €0.08 (€0.0648 withholding tax) per BBVA share, as the first gross interim dividend against 2016 results. The dividend was paid on July 12, 2016.

##### Table of Contents

The Board of Directors, at its meeting held on December 21, 2016, approved the payment in cash of €0.08 (€0.0648 withholding tax) per BBVA share, as the second gross interim dividend against 2016 results. The dividend was paid on January 12, 2017. The total amount of the second dividend of 2016, after deducting the treasury shares held by the Group’s companies, amounted to €525 million and was recognized under the heading “Stockholders’ funds – Interim dividends” charged in the “Financial liabilities at amortized cost – Other financial liabilities (see Note 22.4) of the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016.

5. | Earnings per share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated in accordance with the criteria established by IAS 33. For more information see Glossary of terms.

The Bank issued additional share capital in 2017 and 2016 (see “Dividend Option” Program in 2016 in Note 26). In accordance with IAS 33, when events, other than the conversion of potential shares, have changed the number of shares outstanding without a corresponding change in resources, the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period and for all the periods presented shall be adjusted. The prior year weighted average number of shares is adjusted by applying a corrective factor.

The calculation of earnings per share is as follows:

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share |  | June 2017 |  |  | June 2016 (*) |
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share (millions of euros) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Profit attributable to parent company |  |  | 2,306 |  |  |  | 1,832 |
Adjustment: Additional Tier 1 securities (1) |  |  | (147) |  |  |  | (114) |
Profit adjusted (millions of euros) (A) |  |  | 2,159 |  |  |  | 1,718 |
Profit from discontinued operations (net of non-controlling interest) (B) |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |
Denominator for basic earnings per share (number of shares outstanding) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted average number of shares outstanding (2) |  |  | 6,626 |  |  |  | 6,410 |
Weighted average number of shares outstanding x corrective factor (3) |  |  | 6,626 |  |  |  | 6,626 |
Adjustment: Average number of estimated shares to be converted (3) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Adjusted number of shares - Basic earning per share (C) |  |  | 6,626 |  |  |  | 6,626 |
Adjusted number of shares - diluted earning per share (D) |  |  | 6,626 |  |  |  | 6,626 |
Earnings per share |  |  | 0.33 |  |  |  | 0.26 |
Basic earnings per share from continued operations (Euros per share)A-B/C |  |  | 0.33 |  |  |  | 0.26 |
Diluted earnings per share from continued operations (Euros per share)A-B/D |  |  | 0.33 |  |  |  | 0.26 |
Basic earnings per share from discontinued operations (Euros per share)B/C |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |
Diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations (Euros per share)B/D |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |

| (1) | Remuneration in the period related to contingent convertible securities, recognized in equity (see Note 22.3).

| (2) | Weighted average number of shares outstanding (millions of euros), excluded weighted average of treasury shares during the period.

| (3) | Corrective factor, due to the capital increase with pre-emptive subscription right, applied for the previous years.

| (*) | Data recalculated due to the mentioned corrective factor (see Notes 26 and 29).

As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, there were no other financial instruments or share options awarded to employees that could potentially affect the calculation of the diluted earnings per share for the years presented. For this reason, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for both dates.

6. | Operating segment reporting

The information about operating segments is presented in accordance with IFRS 8. Operating segment reporting represents a basic tool in the oversight and management of the BBVA Group’s various activities. The BBVA Group compiles reporting information on disaggregated business activities. These business activities are then aggregated in accordance with the organizational structure determined by the BBVA Group and, ultimately, into the reportable operating segments themselves.

During the first half of 2017, there have not been significant changes in the reporting structure of the operating segments of the BBVA Group compared to the structure existing at the end of 2016. The structure of the operating segment is as follows:

● |  | Banking activity in Spain

Includes, as in previous years, the Retail Network in Spain, Corporate and Business Banking (CBB), Corporate & Investment Banking (CIB), BBVA Seguros and Asset Management units in Spain. It also includes the portfolios, finance and structural interest-rate positions of the euro balance sheet.

● |  | Non Core Real Estate

Covers specialist management in Spain of loans to developers in difficulties and real-estate assets mainly coming from foreclosed assets, originated from both, residential mortgages, as well as loans to developers. New loan production to developers or loans to those that are not in difficulties are managed by Banking activity in Spain.

● |  | The United States

Includes the Group´s business activity in the country through the BBVA Compass group and the BBVA New York branch.

● |  | Mexico

Includes all the banking and insurance businesses in the country.

● |  | Turkey

Includes the activity of the Garanti Group.

● |  | South America

Includes BBVA´s banking and insurance businesses in the region.

● |  | Rest of Eurasia

Includes business activity in the rest of Europe and Asia, i.e. the Group´s retail and wholesale businesses in the area.

Lastly, the Corporate Center is comprised of the rest of the assets and liabilities that have not been allocated to the operating segments. It includes: the costs of the head offices that have a corporate function; management of structural exchange-rate positions; specific issues of capital instruments to ensure adequate management of the Group’s global solvency; portfolios and their corresponding results, whose management is not linked to customer relations, such as industrial holdings; certain tax assets and liabilities; funds due to commitments with employees; goodwill and other intangibles.

7.1 | General risk management and control model

The BBVA Group has an overall risk management and control model (hereinafter ‘the model’) tailored to their individual business, their organization and the geographies in which they operate, allowing them to develop their activity in accordance with their strategy and policy control and risk management defined by the governing bodies of the Bank and adapt to a changing economic and regulatory environment, tackling risk management globally and adapted to the circumstances of each instance. The model establishes a system of appropriate risk management regarding risk profile and strategy of the Group.

This model is applied comprehensively in the Group and consists of the basic elements listed below:

● |  | Governance and organization.

● |  | Risk appetite framework.

● |  | Decisions and processes.

● |  | Assessment, monitoring and reporting.

● |  | Infrastructure.

The Group encourages the development of a risk culture to ensure consistent application of the control and risk management model in the Group, and to ensure that the risk function is understood and assimilated at all levels of the organization.

7.1.1 Governance | and organization

The governance model for risk management at BBVA is characterized by a special involvement of its corporate bodies, both in setting the risk strategy and in the ongoing monitoring and supervision of its implementation.

Thus, as developed below, the corporate bodies are the ones that approve this risk strategy and corporate policies for the different types of risk, being the risk function responsible for the management, its implementation and development, reporting to the governing bodies.

The responsibility for the daily management of the risks lies on the businesses which abide in the development of their activity to the policies, standards, procedures, infrastructure and controls, based on the framework set by the governing bodies, which are defined by the function risk.

To perform this task properly, the risk function in the BBVA Group is configured as a single, comprehensive and independent role of commercial areas.

Corporate governance system

BBVA Group has developed a corporate governance system that is in line with the best international practices and adapted to the requirements of the regulators in the countries in which its various business units operate.

The Board of Directors (hereinafter also referred to as “the Board”) approves the risk strategy and oversees the internal management and control systems. Specifically, in relation to the risk strategy, the Board approves the Group’s risk appetite statement, the core metrics (and their statements) and the main metrics by type of risk (and their statements), as well as the general risk management and control model.

The Board of Directors is also responsible for approving and monitoring the strategic and business plan, the annual budgets and management goals, as well as the investment and funding policy, in a consistent way and in line with the approved Risk Appetite Framework. For this reason, the processes for defining the Risk Appetite Framework proposals and strategic and budgetary planning at Group level are coordinated by the executive area for submission to the Board.

With the aim of ensuring the integration of the Risk Appetite Framework into management, on the basis established by the Board of Directors, the Executive Committee approves the metrics by type of risk in relation to concentration, profitability and reputational risk and the Group’s basic structure of limits at geographical area, risk type, asset type and portfolio level. This Committee also approves specific corporate policies for each type of risk.

F-48

##### Table of Contents

Lastly, the Board has set up a Board committee focus on risks, the Risk Committee, that assists the Board and the Executive Committee in determining the Group’s risk strategy and the risk limits and policies, respectively, analyzing and assessing beforehand the proposals submitted to those bodies. The amendment of the Group’s risk strategy and of its elements is the exclusive power of the BBVA Board of Directors, while the Executive Committee is responsible for amending the metrics by type of risk within its scope of decision and the Group’s basic structure of limits, when applicable. In both cases, the amendments follow the same decision-making process described above, so the proposals for amendment are submitted by the Chief Risk Officer (“CRO”) and later analyzed, first by the Risks Committee, for later submission to the Board of Directors or to the Executive Committee, as appropriate.

Moreover, the Risks Committee, the Executive Committee and the Board itself conduct proper monitoring of the risk strategy implementation and of the Group’s risk profile. The risks function regularly reports on the development of the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework metrics to the Board and to the Executive Committee, after their analysis by the Risks Committee, whose role in this monitoring and control work is particularly relevant.

The head of the risk function in the executive hierarchy is the Group’s CRO, who carries out its functions with the independence, authority, rank, experience, knowledge and resources to do so. He is appointed by the Board of the Bank as a member of its Senior Management, and has direct access to its corporate bodies (Board, Executive Standing Committee and Risk Committee), who reports regularly on the status of risks to the Group.

The CRO, for the utmost performance of its functions, is supported by a cross composed set of units in corporate risk and the specific risk units in the geographical and / or business areas of the Group structure. Each of these units is headed by a Risk Officer for the geographical and/or business area who, within his/her field of competence, carries out risk management and control functions and is responsible for applying the corporate policies and rules approved at Group level in a consistent manner, adapting them if necessary to local requirements and reporting to the local corporate bodies.

The Risk Officers of the geographical and/or business areas report both to the Group’s CRO and to the head of their geographical and/or business area. This dual reporting system aims to ensure that the local risk management function is independent from the operating functions and that it is aligned with the Group’s corporate risk policies and goals.

Organizational structure and committees

The risk management function, as defined above, consists of risk units from the corporate area, which carry out cross-cutting functions, and risk units from the geographical and/or business areas.

● |  | The corporate area’s risk units develop and present the Group’s risk appetite proposal, corporate policies, rules and global procedures and infrastructures to the CRO, within the action framework approved by the corporate bodies, ensure their application, and report either directly or through the CRO to the Bank’s corporate bodies. Their functions include:

| – | Management of the different types of risks at Group level in accordance with the strategy defined by the corporate bodies.

| – | Risk planning aligned with the risk appetite framework principles defined by the Group.

| – | Monitoring and control of the Group’s risk profile in relation to the risk appetite framework approved by the Bank’s corporate bodies, providing accurate and reliable information with the required frequency and in the necessary format.

| – | Prospective analyses to enable an evaluation of compliance with the risk appetite framework in stress scenarios and the analysis of risk mitigation mechanisms.

| – | Management of the technological and methodological developments required for implementing the Model in the Group.

| – | Design of the Group’s Internal Control model and definition of the methodology, corporate criteria and procedures for identifying and prioritizing the risk inherent in each unit’s activities and processes.

| – | Validation of the models used and the results obtained by them in order to verify their adaptation to the different uses to which they are applied.

F-49

##### Table of Contents

● |  | The risk units in the business units develop and present to the Risk Officer of the geographical and/or business area the risk appetite framework proposal applicable in each geographical and/or business area, independently and always within the Group’s strategy/risk appetite framework. They also ensure that the corporate policies and rules approved consistently at a Group level are applied, adapting them if necessary to local requirements; they are provided with appropriate infrastructures for management and control of their risks, within the global risk infrastructure framework defined by the corporate areas; and they report to their corporate bodies and/or to senior management, as appropriate.

The local risk units thus work with the corporate area risk units in order to adapt to the risk strategy at Group level and share all the information necessary for monitoring the development of their risks.

The risk function has a decision-making process to perform its functions, underpinned by a structure of committees, where the Global Risk Management Committee (GRMC) acts as the highest committee within Risk. It proposes, examines and, where applicable, approves, among others, the internal risk regulatory framework and the procedures and infrastructures needed to identify, assess, measure and manage the material risks faced by the Group in its businesses, and the determination of risk limits by portfolio. The members of this Committee are the Group’s CRO and the heads of the risk units of the corporate area and of the most representative geographical and/or business areas.

The GRMC carries out its functions assisted by various support committees which include:

● |  | Global Credit Risk Management Committee: It is responsible for analyzing and decision-making related to wholesale credit risk admission.

● |  | Wholesale Credit Risk Management Committee: its purpose is the analysis and decision-making regarding the admission of wholesale credit risk of certain customer segments of the BBVA Group.

● |  | Work Out Committee: its purpose is to be informed about decisions taken under the delegation framework regarding risk proposals concerning clients on Watch List levels 1 and 2 and clients classified as NPL of certain customer segments of the BBVA Group, as well the sanction of proposals regarding entries, exits and changes of the Special Monitoring list.

● |  | Monitoring, Assessment & Reporting Committee: It guarantees and ensures the appropriate development of aspects related to risk identification, assessment, monitoring and reporting, with an integrated and cross-cutting vision.

● |  | Asset Allocation Committee: The executive authority responsible for analyzing and deciding on credit risk issues related to processes aimed at achieving a portfolios combination and composition that, under the restrictions imposed by the Risk Appetite framework, allows to maximize the risk adjusted profit subject to an appropriate risk-adjusted return on equity.

● |  | Technology & Analytics Committee: It ensures an appropriate decision-making process regarding the development, implementation and use of the tools and models required to achieve an appropriate management of those risks to which the BBVA Group is exposed.

● |  | Corporate Technological Risks and Operational Control Committee: It approves the Technological Risks and Operational Control Management Frameworks in accordance with the General Risk Management Model’s architecture and monitors metrics, risk profiles and operational loss events.

● |  | Global Markets Risk Unit Global Committee: It is responsible for formalizing, supervising and communicating the monitoring of trading desk risk in all the Global Markets business units, as well as coordinating and approving GMRU key decisions activity, and developing and proposing to GRMC the corporate regulation of the unit.

● |  | Corporate Operational and Outsourcing Risk Admission Committee: It identifies and assesses the operational risks of new businesses, new products and services, and outsourcing initiatives.

● |  | Retail Risk Committee: It ensures the alignment of the practices and processes of the retail credit risk cycle with the approved risk tolerance and with the business growth and development objectives established in the corporate strategy of the Group.

● |  | AM Global Risk Steering Committee: its purpose is to develop and coordinate the strategies, policies, procedures, and infrastructure necessary to identify, assess, measure and manage the material risks facing the bank in the operation of businesses linked to BBVA Asset Management.

F-50

##### Table of Contents

● |  | Global Insurance Risk Committee: its purpose is to guarantee the alignment and the communication between all the Insurance Risk Units in the BBVA Group. It will do this by promoting the application of standardized principles, policies, tools and risk metrics in the different regions with the aim of maintaining proper integration of insurance risk management in the Group.

● |  | COPOR: its purpose is to analyze and make decision in relation to the operations of the various geographies in which Global Markets is present.

Each geographical and/or business area has its own risk management committee (or committees), with objectives and contents similar to those of the corporate area, which perform their duties consistently and in line with corporate risk policies and rules.

Under this organizational scheme, the risk management function ensures the risk strategy, the regulatory framework, and standardized risk infrastructures and controls are integrated and applied across the entire Group. It also benefits from the knowledge and proximity to customers in each geographical and/or business area, and transmits the corporate risk culture to the Group’s different levels. Moreover, this organization enables the risks function to conduct and report to the corporate bodies integrated monitoring and control of the entire Group’s risks.

Internal Risk Control and Internal Validation

The Group has a specific Internal Risk Control unit. Its main function is to ensure there is an adequate internal regulatory framework, a process and measures defined for each type of risk identified in the Group (and for those other types of risk that may potentially affect the Group). It controls their application and operation, as well as ensuring the integration of the risk strategy into the Group’s management. In this regard, the Internal Risk Control unit verifies the performance of their duties by the units that develop the risk models, manage the processes and execute the controls. Its scope of action is global, from the geographical point of view and the type of risks.

The Group’s Head of Internal Risk Control is responsible for the function and reports on its activities and informs of its work plans to the CRO and to the Board’s Risks Committee, assisting it in any matters where requested. For these purposes the Internal Risks Control department has a Technical Secretary’s Office, which offers the Committee the technical support it needs to better perform its duties.

In addition, the Group has an Internal Validation unit, which reviews the performance of its duties by the units that develop the risk models and of those that use them in management. Its functions include review and independent validation at internal level of the models used for management and control of risks in the Group.

7.1.2 | Risk appetite framework

The Group’s risk appetite framework, approved by the Board, determines the risks (and their level) that the Group is willing to assume to achieve its business objectives considering an organic evolution of its business. These are expressed in terms of solvency, liquidity and funding profitability, recurrent earnings, cost of risk or other metrics, which are reviewed periodically as well as in case of material changes to the entity’s business or relevant corporate transactions. The definition of the risk appetite has the following goals:

● |  | To express the maximum levels of risk it is willing to assume, at both Group and geographical and/or business area level.

● |  | To establish a set of guidelines for action and a management framework for the medium and long term that prevent actions from being taken (at both Group and geographical and/or business area level) that could compromise the future viability of the Group.

● |  | To establish a framework for relations with the geographical and/or business areas that, while preserving their decision-making autonomy, ensures they act consistently, avoiding uneven behavior.

● |  | To establish a common language throughout the organization and develop a compliance-oriented risk culture.

● |  | Alignment with the new regulatory requirements, facilitating communication with regulators, investors and other stakeholders, thanks to an integrated and stable risk management framework.

F-51

##### Table of Contents

Risk appetite framework is expressed through the following elements:

Risk appetite statement

Sets out the general principles of the Group’s risk strategy and the target risk profile. The Group’s Risk appetite statement is:

BBVA Group’s risk policy is designed to achieve a moderate risk profile for the entity, through: prudent management and a responsible universal banking business model targeted to value creation, risk-adjusted return and recurrence of results; diversified by geography, asset class, portfolio and clients; and with presence in emerging and developed countries, maintaining a medium/low risk profile in every country, and focusing on a long term relationship with the client.

Core metrics and statements

Based on the risk appetite statement, statements are established to set down the general risk management principles in terms of solvency, profitability, liquidity and funding.

● |  | Solvency: a sound capital position, maintaining resilient capital buffer from regulatory and internal requirements that supports the regular development of banking activity even under stress situations. As a result, BBVA proactively manages its capital position, which is tested under different stress scenarios from a regular basis.

● |  | Liquidity and funding: A sound balance-sheet structure to sustain the business model. Maintenance of an adequate volume of stable resources, a diversified wholesale funding structure, which limits the weight of short term funding and ensures the access to the different funding markets, optimizing the costs and preserving a cushion of liquid assets to overcome a liquidity survival period under stress scenarios.

● |  | Income recurrence and profitability: A sound margin-generation capacity supported by a recurrent business model based on the diversification of assets, a stable funding and a customer focus; combined with a moderate risk profile that limits the credit losses even under stress situations; all focused on allowing income stability and maximizing the risk-adjusted profitability.

In addition, the core metrics define, in quantitative terms, the principles and the target risk profile set out in the risk appetite statement and are in line with the strategy of the Group. Each metric has three thresholds (traffic-light approach) ranging from a standard business management to higher deterioration levels: Management reference, Maximum appetite and Maximum capacity. The Group’s Core metrics are:

|  | Metric
Solvency |  | Economic Solvency
| Regulatory Solvency: CET1 Fully Loaded
Liquidity and Funding |  | Loan to Stable Costumer Deposits (LTSCD)
| Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR)
Income recurrence and profitability |  | Net margin / Average Total Assets
| Cost of Risk
| Return on Equity (ROE)

By type of risk metrics and statements

Based on the core metrics, statements are established for each type of risk reflecting the main principles governing the management of that risk and several metrics are calibrated, compliance with which enables compliance with the core metrics and the statement of the Group. By type of risk metrics define the strategic positioning per type of risk and have a maximum appetite level.

Basic limits structure (core limits)

The purpose of the basic limits structure or core limits is to manage risks on an ongoing basis within the thresholds tolerated by core and “by type of risk” metrics; so they are a breakdown by geography and portfolio of the same metrics or complementary metrics.

F-52

##### Table of Contents

In addition to this framework, there’s a Management limits level that is defined and managed by the Risk Area developing the core limits, in order to ensure that the early management of risks by subcategories or by subportfolios complies with that core limits and, in general, with the risk appetite framework.

The following graphic summarizes the structure of BBVA’s Risk appetite framework:

The corporate risk area works with the various geographical and/or business areas to define their risk appetite framework, which will be coordinated with and integrated into the Group’s risk appetite to ensure that its profile fits as defined.

The risk appetite framework defined by the Group expresses the levels and types of risk that the Bank is willing to assume to be able to implement its strategic plan with no relevant deviations, even in situations of stress. The risk appetite framework is integrated in the management and determines the basic lines of activity of the Group, because it sets the framework within the budget is developed.

During the first six months of 2017 and the year 2016, the Risk Appetite metrics evolved in line with the set profile.

7.1.3 Decisions and processes

The transfer of risk appetite framework to ordinary management is supported by three basic aspects:

● |  | A standardized set of regulations

● |  | Risk planning

● |  | Comprehensive management of risks over their life cycle

Standardized regulatory framework

The corporate GRM area is responsible for proposing the definition and development of the corporate policies, specific rules, procedures and schemes of delegation based on which risk decisions should be taken within the Group.

This process aims for the following objectives:

● |  | Hierarchy and structure: well-structured information through a clear and simple hierarchy creating relations between documents that depend on each other.

● |  | Simplicity: an appropriate and sufficient number of documents.

● |  | Standardization: a standardized name and content of document.

● |  | Accessibility: ability to search for, and easy access to, documentation through the corporate risk management library.

The approval of corporate policies for all types of risks corresponds to the corporate bodies of the Bank, while the corporate risk area endorses the remaining regulations.

F-53

##### Table of Contents

Risk units of geographical and / or business areas continue to adapt to local requirements the regulatory framework for the purpose of having a decision process that is appropriate at local level and aligned with the Group policies. If such adaptation is necessary, the local risk area must inform the corporate GRM area, which must ensure the consistency of the set of regulations at the level of the entire Group, and thus must give its approval prior to any modifications proposed by the local risk areas.

Risk planning

Risk planning ensures that the risk appetite framework is integrated into management through a cascade process for establishing limits and profitability adjusted to the risk profile, in which the function of the corporate area risk units and the geographical and/or business areas is to guarantee the alignment of this process against the Group’s risk appetite framework in terms of solvency, profitability, liquidity and funding.

It has tools in place that allow the risk appetite framework defined at aggregate level to be assigned and monitored by business areas, legal entities, types of risk, concentrations and any other level considered necessary.

The risk planning process is present within the rest of the Group’s planning framework so as to ensure consistency among all of them.

Daily risk management

All risks must be managed comprehensively during their life cycle, and be treated differently depending on the type.

The risk management cycle is composed of 5 elements:

● |  | Planning: with the aim of ensuring that the Group’s activities are consistent with the target risk profile and guaranteeing solvency in the development of the strategy.

● |  | Assessment: a process focused on identifying all the risks inherent to the activities carried out by the Group.

● |  | Formalization: includes the risk origination, approval and formalization stages.

● |  | Monitoring and reporting: continuous and structured monitoring of risks and preparation of reports for internal and/or external (market, investors, etc.) consumption.

● |  | Active portfolio management: focused on identifying business opportunities in existing portfolios and new markets, businesses and products.

7.1.4 Assessment, monitoring and reporting

Assessment, monitoring and reporting is a cross-cutting element that should ensure that the Model has a dynamic and proactive vision to enable compliance with the risk appetite framework approved by the corporate bodies, even in adverse scenarios. The materialization of this process has the following objectives:

● |  | Assess compliance with the risk appetite framework at the present time, through monitoring of the core metrics, metrics by type of risk and the basic structure of limits.

● |  | Assess compliance with the risk appetite framework in the future, through the projection of the risk appetite framework variables, in both a baseline scenario determined by the budget and a risk scenario determined by the stress tests.

● |  | Identify and assess the risk factors and scenarios that could compromise compliance with the risk appetite framework, through the development of a risk repository and an analysis of the impact of those risks.

● |  | Act to mitigate the impact in the Group of the identified risk factors and scenarios, ensuring this impact remains within the target risk profile.

● |  | Supervise the key variables that are not a direct part of the risk appetite framework, but that condition its compliance. These can be either external or internal.

F-54

##### Table of Contents

This process is integrated in the activity of the risk units, both of the corporate area and in the business units, and it is carried out during the following phases:

● |  | Identification of risk factors, aimed at generating a map with the most relevant risk factors that can compromise the Group’s performance in relation to the thresholds defined in the risk appetite framework.

● |  | Impact evaluation. This involves evaluating the impact that the materialization of one (or more) of the risk factors identified in the previous phase could have on the risk appetite framework metrics, through the occurrence of a given scenario.

● |  | Response to undesired situations and realignment measures. Exceeding the parameters will trigger an analysis of the realignment measures to enable dynamic management of the situation, even before it occurs.

● |  | Monitoring. The aim is to avoid losses before they occur by monitoring the Group’s current risk profile and the identified risk factors.

● |  | Reporting. This aims to provide information on the assumed risk profile by offering accurate, complete and reliable data to the corporate bodies and to senior management, with the frequency and completeness appropriate to the nature, significance and complexity of the risks.

7.1.5 Infrastructure

The infrastructure is an element that must ensure that the Group has the human and technological resources needed for effective management and supervision of risks in order to carry out the functions set out in the Group’s risk Model and the achievement of their objectives.

With respect to human resources, the Group’s risk function has an adequate workforce, in terms of number, skills, knowledge and experience.

With regards to technology, the Group ensures the integrity of management information systems and the provision of the infrastructure needed for supporting risk management, including tools appropriate to the needs arising from the different types of risks for their admission, management, assessment and monitoring.

The principles that govern the Group risk technology are:

● |  | Standardization: the criteria are consistent across the Group, thus ensuring that risk handling is standardized at geographical and/or business area level.

● |  | Integration in management: the tools incorporate the corporate risk policies and are applied in the Group’s day-to-day management.

● |  | Automation of the main processes making up the risk management cycle.

● |  | Appropriateness: provision of adequate information at the right time.

Through the “Risk Analytics” function, the Group has a corporate framework in place for developing the measurement techniques and models. It covers all the types of risks and the different purposes and uses a standard language for all the activities and geographical/business areas and decentralized execution to make the most of the Group’s global reach. The aim is to continually evolve the existing risk models and generate others that cover the new areas of the businesses that develop them, so as to reinforce the anticipation and proactiveness that characterize the Group’s risk function.

Also the risk units of geographical and / or business areas have sufficient means from the point of view of resources, structures and tools to develop a risk management in line with the corporate model.

7.1.6 Risk culture

BBVA considers risk culture to be an essential element for consolidating and integrating the other components of the Model. The culture transfers the implications that are involved in the Group’s activities and businesses to all the levels of the organization. The risk culture is organized through a number of levers, including the following:

| ● |  | Communication: promotes the dissemination of the Model, and in particular the principles that must govern risk management in the Group, in a consistent and integrated manner across the organization, through the most appropriate channels. GRM has a number of communication channels to facilitate the transmission of information and knowledge among the various teams in the function and the Group, adapting the frequency, formats and recipients based on the proposed goal, in order to strengthen the basic principles of the risk function.

F-55

| The risk culture and the management model thus emanate from the Group’s corporate bodies and senior management and are transmitted throughout the organization.

| ● |  | Training: its main aim is to disseminate and establish the model of risk management across the organization, ensuring standards in the skills and knowledge of the different persons involved in the risk management processes.

|  | Well defined and implemented training ensures continuous improvement of the skills and knowledge of the Group’s professionals, and in particular of the GRM area, and is based on four aspects that aim to develop each of the needs of the GRM group by increasing its knowledge and skills in different fields such as: finance and risks, tools and technology, management and skills, and languages.

| ● |  | Motivation: the aim in this area is for the incentives of the risk function teams to support the strategy for managing those teams and the function’s values and culture at all levels. Includes compensation and all those elements related to motivation – working environment, etc. which contribute to the achievement Model objectives.

7.2 Risk factors

As mentioned earlier, BBVA has processes in place for identifying risks and analyzing scenarios that enable the Group to manage risks in a dynamic and proactive way.

The risk identification processes are forward looking to ensure the identification of emerging risks and take into account the concerns of both the business areas, which are close to the reality of the different geographical areas, and the corporate areas and senior management.

Risks are captured and measured consistently using the methodologies deemed appropriate in each case. Their measurement includes the design and application of scenario analyses and stress testing and considers the controls to which the risks are subjected.

As part of this process, a forward projection of the risk appetite framework variables in stress scenarios is conducted in order to identify possible deviations from the established thresholds. If any such deviations are detected, appropriate measures are taken to keep the variables within the target risk profile.

To this extent, there are a number of emerging risks that could affect the Group’s business trends. These risks are described in the following main blocks:

● |  | Macroeconomic and geopolitical risks

|  | According to the latest information available, global growth has continued to give signs of improvement in the first half of 2017, although the most recent figures also suggest some stabilization looking forward. The general improvement in confidence and global trade are underpinning the economic acceleration. In addition, central banks are continuing their support and there is relative calm in the financial markets. Performance in the developed economies continues to be positive, above all in Europe. In contrast, in Latin America recent trends suggest moderate growth, although with differences between the countries.

|  | The main global uncertainties include the pending adjustment of the high level of corporate debt in China or the final definition of the economic policy of the government of The United States in a scenario of normalization of monetary policy.

|  | In this regard, the Group’s geographical diversification is a key element in achieving a high level of revenue recurrence, despite the environmental conditions and economic cycles of the economies in which it operates.

● |  | Regulatory and reputational risks

| – | Financial institutions are exposed to a complex and ever-changing regulatory environment defined by governments and regulators. This can affect their ability to grow and the capacity of certain businesses to develop, and result in stricter liquidity and capital requirements with lower profitability ratios. The Group constantly monitors changes in the regulatory framework that allow for anticipation and adaptation to them in a timely manner, adopt best practices and more efficient and rigorous criteria in its implementation.

##### Table of Contents

| – | The financial sector is under ever closer scrutiny by regulators, governments and society itself. Negative news or inappropriate behavior can significantly damage the Group’s reputation and affect its ability to develop a sustainable business. The attitudes and behaviors of the group and its members are governed by the principles of integrity, honesty, long-term vision and best practices through, inter alia, internal control Model, the Code of Conduct, tax strategy and Responsible Business Strategy of the Group.

● |  | Business, operational and legal risks

| – | New technologies and forms of customer relationships: Developments in the digital world and in information technologies pose significant challenges for financial institutions, entailing threats (new competitors, disintermediation…) but also opportunities (new framework of relations with customers, greater ability to adapt to their needs, new products and distribution channels...). Digital transformation is a priority for the Group as it aims to lead digital banking of the future as one of its objectives.

| – | Technological risks and security breaches: The Group is exposed to new threats such as cyber-attacks, theft of internal and customer databases, fraud in payment systems, etc. that require major investments in security from both the technological and human point of view. The Group gives great importance to the active operational and technological risk management and control. One example was the early adoption of advanced models for management of these risks (AMA - Advanced Measurement Approach).

| – | The financial sector is exposed to increasing litigation, so the financial institutions face a large number of proceedings which economic consequences are difficult to determine. The Group manages and monitors these proceedings to defend its interests, where necessary allocating the corresponding provisions to cover them, following the expert criteria of internal lawyers and external attorneys responsible for the legal handling of the procedures, in accordance with applicable legislation.

7.3 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 party.

It is the most important risk for the Group and includes counterparty risk, issuer risk, settlement risk and country risk management.

The principles underpinning credit risk management in BBVA are as follows:

● |  | Availability of basic information for the study and 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 owed.

● |  | Establishment of adequate and sufficient guarantees that allow effective recovery of the operation, this being considered a secondary and exceptional method of recovery when the first has failed.

Credit risk management in the Group has an integrated structure for all its functions, allowing decisions to be taken objectively and independently throughout the life cycle of the risk.

● |  | At Group level: frameworks for action and standard rules of conduct are defined for handling risk, specifically, the circuits, procedures, structure and supervision.

● |  | At the business area level: they are responsible for adapting the Group’s criteria to the local realities of each geographical area and for direct management of risk according to the decision-making circuit:

| – | Retail risks: in general, the decisions are formalized according to the scoring tools, within the general framework for action of each business area with regard to risks. The changes in weighting and variables of these tools must be validated by the corporate GRM area.

| – | Wholesale risks: in general, the decisions are formalized by each business area within its general framework for action with regard to risks, which incorporates the delegation rule and the Group’s corporate policies.

##### Table of Contents

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 balance sheets, exposure to credit risk is considered equal to its carrying amount (not including impairment losses), with the sole exception of derivatives and hedging derivatives.

● |  | The maximum credit risk exposure on financial guarantees granted is the maximum that the Group would be liable for if these guarantees were called in, and that is their carrying amount.

● |  | Our 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, reflects the difference between original commitments and fair values on the reporting date (mark-to-market). As indicated in Note 2.2.1, derivatives are accounted for as of each reporting date at fair value in accordance with IAS 39.

| – | 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 given 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 default. 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 BBVA Group 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, depending on the fluctuation of market prices.

The breakdown by counterparty and product of loans and advances, net of impairment losses, classified in the different headings of the assets, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is shown below:

7.3.2 Mitigation of credit risk, collateralized credit risk and other credit enhancements

In most cases, maximum credit risk exposure is reduced by collateral, credit enhancements and other actions which mitigate the Group’s exposure. The BBVA Group 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 not sufficient instrument for accepting risks, as the assumption of risks by the Group 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 policy of accepting risks is therefore organized into three different levels in the BBVA Group:

● |  | Analysis of the financial risk of the operation, 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 assumed, 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.

The procedures for the management and valuation of collateral are set out in the Corporate Policies (retail and wholesale), which establish the basic principles for credit risk management, including the management of collaterals assigned in transactions 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 mutual funds, etc. All the collaterals assigned must be properly drawn up and entered in the corresponding register. They must also have the approval of the Group’s legal units.

The following is a description of the main types of collateral for each financial instrument class:

● |  | Financial instruments held for trading: The guarantees or credit enhancements obtained directly from the issuer or counterparty are implicit in the clauses of the instrument.

● |  | Derivatives and hedging derivatives: In derivatives, credit risk is minimized through contractual netting agreements, where positive- and negative-value derivatives with the same counterparty are offset for their net balance. There may likewise be other kinds of guarantees, depending on counterparty solvency and the nature of the transaction.

● |  | Other financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss and Available-for-sale financial assets: The guarantees or credit enhancements obtained directly from the issuer or counterparty are inherent to the structure of the instrument.

● |  | Loans and receivables:

| – | Loans and advances to credit institutions: These usually only have the counterparty’s personal guarantee.

| – | Loans and advances to customers: Most of these loans and advances are backed by personal guarantees extended by the own customer. There may also be collateral to secure loans and advances to customers (such as mortgages, cash collaterals, pledged securities and other collateral), or to obtain other credit enhancements (bonds, hedging, etc.).

| – | Debt securities: The guarantees or credit enhancements obtained directly from the issuer or counterparty are inherent to the structure of the instrument.

Collateralized loans granted by the Group as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 excluding balances deemed impaired, is broken down in Note 13.2.

● |  | Financial guarantees, other contingent risks and drawable by third parties: These have the counterparty’s personal guarantee.

7.3.3 Credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired

The BBVA Group has tools (“scoring” and “rating”) that enable it to rank the credit quality of its operations and customers based on an assessment and its correspondence with the probability of default (“PD”) scales. To analyze the performance of PD, the Group has a series of tracking tools and historical databases that collect the pertinent internally generated information, which can basically be grouped together into scoring and rating models.

Scoring

Scoring is a decision-making model that contributes to both the arrangement and management of retail loans: consumer loans, mortgages, credit cards for individuals, etc. Scoring is the tool used to decide to originate a loan, what amount should be originated and what strategies can help establish the price, because it is an algorithm that sorts transactions by their credit quality. This algorithm enables the BBVA Group to assign a score to each transaction requested by a customer, on the basis of a series of objective characteristics that have statistically been shown to discriminate between the quality and risk of this type of transactions. The advantage of scoring lies in its simplicity and homogeneity: all that is needed is a series of objective data for each customer, and this data is analyzed automatically using an algorithm.

There are three types of scoring, based on the information used and on its purpose:

● |  | Reactive scoring: measures the risk of a transaction requested by an individual using variables relating to the requested transaction and to the customer’s socio-economic data available at the time of the request. The new transaction is approved or rejected depending on the score.

● |  | Behavioral scoring: scores transactions for a given product in an outstanding risk portfolio of the entity, enabling the credit rating to be tracked and the customer’s needs to be anticipated. It uses transaction and customer variables available internally. Specifically, variables that refer to the behavior of both the product and the customer.

● |  | Proactive scoring: gives a score at customer level using variables related to the individual’s general behavior with the entity, and to his/her payment behavior in all the contracted products. The purpose is to track the customer’s credit quality and it is used to pre-approved new transactions.

Rating

Rating tools, as opposed to scoring tools, do not assess transactions but focus on the rating of customers instead: companies, corporations, SMEs, general governments, etc. A rating tool is an instrument that, based on a detailed financial study, helps determine a customer’s ability to meet his/her financial obligations. The final rating is usually a combination of various factors: on one hand, quantitative factors, and on the other hand, qualitative factors. It is a middle road between an individual analysis and a statistical analysis.

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. Moreover, scorings only include objective variables, while ratings add qualitative information. And although both are based on statistical studies, adding a business view, rating tools give more weight to the business criterion compared to scoring tools.

For portfolios where the number of defaults is very low (sovereign risk, corporates, financial entities, etc.) the internal information is supplemented by “benchmarking” of the external rating agencies (Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch). To this end, each year the PDs compiled by the rating agencies at each level of risk rating are compared, and the measurements compiled by the various agencies are mapped against those of the BBVA master rating scale.

##### Table of Contents

Once the probability of default of a transaction or customer has been calculated, a “business cycle adjustment” is carried out. This is a means of establishing a measure of risk that goes beyond the time of its calculation. The aim is to capture representative information of the behavior of portfolios over a complete economic cycle. This probability is linked to the Master Rating Scale prepared by the BBVA Group to enable uniform classification of the Group’s various asset risk portfolios.

The table below shows the abridged scale used to classify the BBVA Group’s outstanding risk as of June 30, 2017:

These different levels and their probability of default were calculated by using as a reference the rating scales and default rates provided by the external agencies Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s. These calculations establish the levels of probability of default for the BBVA Group’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 available.

As indicated in Note 2.2.1, although they have been derecognized from the consolidated balance sheet, the BBVA Group continues to attempt to collect on these written-off financial assets, until the rights to receive them are fully extinguished, either because it is time-barred financial asset, the financial asset is condoned, or other reasons.

7.3.6 Refinancing and restructuring operations

Group policies and principles with respect to refinancing and restructuring operations

Refinancing and restructuring operations (see definition in the Glossary) 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 BBVA Group policies.

The BBVA Group’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 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.

These general principles are adapted in each case according to the conditions and circumstances of each geographical area in which the Group operates, and to the different types of customers involved.

In the case of retail customers (private individuals), the main aim of the BBVA Group’s policy on refinancing and restructuring loan 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 BBVA Group originally entered into.

● |  | Customers subject to refinancing and restructuring operations are excluded from marketing campaigns of any kind.

In the case of non-retail customers (mainly companies, enterprises and corporates), refinancing/restructuring is authorized according to an economic and financial viability plan based on:

● |  | Forecasted future income, margins and cash flows to allow entities to implement cost adjustment measures (industrial restructuring) and a business development plan that can help reduce the level of leverage to sustainable levels (capacity to access the financial markets).

● |  | Where appropriate, the existence of a divestment plan for assets and/or operating segments that can generate cash to assist the deleveraging process.

● |  | The capacity of shareholders to contribute capital and/or guarantees that can support the viability of the plan.

F-71

##### Table of Contents

In accordance with the Group’s policy, the conclusion of a loan refinancing and restructuring operation does not imply the loan is reclassified from “impaired” or “standard under special monitoring” to outstanding risk; such a reclassification must be based on the analysis mentioned earlier of the viability.

The Group maintains the policy of including risks related to refinanced and restructured loans as either:

● |  | “Impaired assets”, as although the customer is up to date with payments, they are classified as impaired for reasons other than their default when there are significant doubts that the terms of their refinancing may not be met; or

● |  | “Normal-risk assets under special monitoring” until the conditions established for their consideration as normal risk are met).

The conditions established for “standard under special monitoring” to be reclassified out of this category are as follows:

● |  | The customer must have paid past-due amounts (principal and interest) since the date of the renegotiation or restructuring of the loan or other objective criteria, demonstrating the borrower´s ability to pay, have been verified; and

● |  | At least two years must have elapsed since completion of the renegotiation or restructuring of the loan;

● |  | It is unlikely that the customer will have financial difficulties and, therefore, it is expected that the customer will be able to meet its loan payment obligations (principal and interest) in a timely manner.

The BBVA Group’s refinancing and restructuring policy provides for the possibility of two modifications in a 24 month period for loans that are not in compliance with the payment schedule.

The internal models used to determine allowances for loan losses consider the restructuring and renegotiation of a loan, as well as re-defaults on such a loan, by assigning a lower internal rating to restructured and renegotiated loans than the average internal rating assigned to non-restructured/renegotiated loans. This downgrade results in an increase in the probability of default (PD) assigned to restructured/renegotiated loans (with the resulting PD being higher than the average PD of the non- renegotiated loans in the same portfolios).

For quantitative information on refinancing and restructuring operations see Appendix X.

7.4 Market risk

7.4.1 Market risk portfolios

Market risk originates as a result of movements in the market variables that impact the valuation of traded financial products and assets. The main risks generated can be classified as follows:

● |  | Interest-rate risk: This arises as a result of exposure to movements in the different interest-rate curves involved in trading. Although the typical products that generate sensitivity to the movements in interest rates are money-market products (deposits, interest-rate futures, call money swaps, etc.) and traditional interest-rate derivatives (swaps and interest-rate options such as caps, floors, swaptions, etc.), practically all the financial products are exposed to interest-rate movements due to the effect that such movements have on the valuation of the financial discount.

● |  | Equity risk: This arises as a result of movements in share prices. This risk is generated in spot positions in shares or any derivative products whose underlying asset is a share or an equity index. Dividend risk is a sub-risk of equity risk, arising as an input for any equity option. Its variation may affect the valuation of positions and it is therefore a factor that generates risk on the books.

● |  | Exchange-rate risk: This is caused by movements in the exchange rates of the different currencies in which a position is held. As in the case of equity risk, this risk is generated in spot currency positions, and in any derivative product whose underlying asset is an exchange rate. In addition, the quanto effect (operations where the underlying asset and the instrument itself are denominated in different currencies) means that in certain transactions in which the underlying asset is not a currency, an exchange-rate risk is generated that has to be measured and monitored.

● |  | Credit-spread risk: Credit spread is an indicator of an issuer’s credit quality. Spread risk occurs due to variations in the levels of spread of both corporate and government issues, and affects positions in bonds and credit derivatives.

● |  | Volatility risk: This occurs as a result of changes in the levels of implied price volatility of the different market instruments on which derivatives are traded. This risk, unlike the others, is exclusively a component of trading in derivatives and is defined as a first-order convexity risk that is generated in all possible underlying assets in which there are products with options that require a volatility input for their valuation.

The metrics developed to control and monitor market risk in BBVA Group are aligned with market practices and are implemented consistently across all the local market risk units.

Measurement procedures are established in terms of the possible impact of negative market conditions on the trading portfolio of the Group’s Global Markets units, both under ordinary circumstances and in situations of heightened risk factors.

The standard metric used to measure market risk is Value at Risk (“VaR”), which indicates the maximum loss that may occur in the portfolios at a given confidence level (99%) and time horizon (one day). This statistic value is widely used in the market and has the advantage of summing up in a single metric the risks inherent to trading activity, taking into account how they are related and providing a prediction of the loss that the trading book could sustain as a result of fluctuations in equity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The market risk analysis considers risks, such as credit spread, basis risk, volatility and correlation risk.

Most of the headings on the Group’s balance sheet subject to market risk are positions whose main metric for measuring their market risk is VaR. This table shows the accounting lines of the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 in which there is a market risk in trading activity subject to this measurement:

Although the prior table shows details the financial positions subject to market risk, it should be noted that the data are for information purposes only and do not reflect how the risk is managed in trading activity, where it is not classified into assets and liabilities.

With respect to the risk measurement models used in BBVA Group, the Bank of Spain has authorized the use of the internal model to determine bank capital requirements deriving from risk positions on the BBVA S.A. and BBVA Bancomer trading book, which jointly account for around 65% and 66% of the Group’s trading-book market risk as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. For the rest of the geographical areas (mainly South America, Garanti and BBVA Compass), bank capital for the risk positions in the trading book is calculated using the standard model.

The current management structure includes the monitoring of market-risk limits, consisting of a scheme of limits based on VaR, economic capital (based on VaR measurements) and VaR sub-limits, as well as stop-loss limits for each of the Group’s business units.

The model used estimates VaR in accordance with the “historical simulation” methodology, which involves estimating losses and gains that would have taken place in the current portfolio if the changes in market conditions that took place over a specific period of time in the past were repeated. Based on this information, it infers the maximum expected loss of the current portfolio within a given confidence level. This model has the advantage of reflecting precisely the historical distribution of the market variables and not assuming any specific distribution of probability. The historical period used in this model is two years. The historical simulation method is used in BBVA S.A., BBVA Bancomer, BBVA Chile, BBVA Colombia, Compass Bank and Garanti.

##### Table of Contents

VaR figures are estimated following two methodologies:

● |  | VaR without smoothing, which awards equal weight to the daily information for the previous two years. This is currently the official methodology for measuring market risks for the purpose of monitoring compliance with risk limits.

● |  | VaR with smoothing, which gives a greater weight to more recent market information. This metric supplements the previous one.

In the case of South America (except BBVA Chile and BBVA Colombia), a parametric methodology is used to measure risk in terms of VaR.

At the same time, and following the guidelines established by the Spanish and European authorities, BBVA incorporates metrics in addition to VaR with the aim of meeting the Bank of Spain’s regulatory requirements with respect to the calculation of bank capital for the trading book. Specifically, the new measures incorporated in the Group since December 2011 (stipulated by Basel 2.5) are:

● |  | VaR: In regulatory terms, the VaR charge incorporates the stressed VaR charge, and the sum of the two (VaR and stressed VaR) is calculated. This quantifies the losses associated with the movements of the two risk factors inherent to market operations (interest rates, FX, RV, credit, etc.). Both VaR and stressed VaR are rescaled by a regulatory multiplier set at three and by the square root of ten to calculate the capital charge.

● |  | Specific Risk: Incremental Risk Capital (“IRC”) Quantification of the risks of default and downgrading of the credit ratings of the bond and credit derivative positions in the portfolio. The specific capital risk by IRC is a charge exclusively used in the geographical areas with the internal model approved (BBVA S.A. and Bancomer). The capital charge is determined according to the associated losses (at 99.9% in a 1-year horizon under the hypothesis of constant risk) due to the rating migration and/or default state the issuer of an asset. In addition, the price risk is included in sovereign positions for the items specified.

● |  | Specific Risk: Securitization and correlation portfolios. Capital charge for securitizations and the correlation portfolio to include the potential losses associated at the level of rating a specific credit structure (rating). Both are calculated by the standard method. The scope of the correlation portfolios refers to the FTD-type market operation and/or tranches of market CDOs and only for positions with an active market and hedging capacity.

Validity tests are performed regularly on the risk measurement models used by the Group. They estimate the maximum loss that could have been incurred in the positions with a certain level of probability (backtesting), as well as measurements of the impact of extreme market events on risk positions (stress testing). As an additional control measure, backtesting is conducted at trading desk level in order to enable more specific monitoring of the validity of the measurement models.

Market risk in the first half of 2017

The Group’s market risk remains at low levels compared with the risk aggregates managed by BBVA, particularly in terms of credit risk. This is due to the nature of the business. During the first half of 2017 the average VaR was €29 million, below the figure of the first semester of 2016, with a high on January 11, 2017 of €34 m. The evolution in the BBVA Group’s market risk during the first half of 2017, measured as VaR without smoothing (see Glossary) with a 99% confidence level and a 1-day horizon (shown in millions of Euros) is as follows:

F-74

##### Table of Contents

By type of market risk assumed by the Group’s trading portfolio, the main risk factor for the Group continues to be that linked to interest rates, with a weight of 46% of the total at the end of the first half of 2017 (this figure includes the spread risk). The relative weight has decreased compared with the close of 2016 (58%). Exchange-rate risk accounts 22%, increasing its proportion with respect to December 2016 (13%), while equity, volatility and correlation risk have increased, with a weight of 32% at the close of the first half of 2017 (vs. 29% at the close of 2016).

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 the balance of VaR was €26 million in both periods. These figures can be broken down as follows:

|  |  |  |  |  | Millions of Euros |  |  |  |  |  |

Validation of the model

The internal market risk model is validated on a regular basis by backtesting in both BBVA S.A. and Bancomer. The aim of backtesting is to validate the quality and precision of the internal market risk model used by BBVA Group to estimate the maximum daily loss of a portfolio, at a 99% level of confidence and a 250-day time horizon, by comparing the Group’s results and the risk measurements generated by the internal market risk model. These tests showed that the internal market risk model of both BBVA, S.A. and Bancomer is adequate and precise.

Two types of backtesting have been carried out during the first half of 2017 and during the year 2016:

● |  | “Hypothetical” backtesting: the daily VaR is compared with the results obtained, not taking into account the intraday results or the changes in the portfolio positions. This validates the appropriateness of the market risk metrics for the end-of-day position.

F-75

##### Table of Contents

● |  | “Real” backtesting: the daily VaR is compared with the total results, including intraday transactions, but discounting the possible minimum charges or fees involved. This type of backtesting includes the intraday risk in portfolios.

In addition, each of these two types of backtesting was carried out at the level of risk factor or business type, thus making a deeper comparison of the results with respect to risk measurements.

For the period between the end of the first semester of 2016 and the end of the first semester of 2017, it was carried out the backtesting of the internal VaR calculation model, comparing the daily results obtained with the estimated risk level estimated by the internal VaR calculation model. At the end of the semester the comparison showed the internal VaR calculation model was working correctly, within the “green” zone (0-4 exceptions), thus validating the internal VaR calculation model, as has occurred each year since the internal market risk model was approved for the Group.

Stress test analysis

A number of stress tests are carried out on BBVA Group’s trading portfolios. First, global and local historical scenarios are used that replicate the behavior of an extreme past event, such as for example the collapse of Lehman Brothers or the “Tequilazo” crisis. These stress tests are complemented with simulated scenarios, where the aim is to generate scenarios that have a significant impact on the different portfolios, but without being anchored to any specific historical scenario. Finally, for some portfolios or positions, fixed stress tests are also carried out that have a significant impact on the market variables affecting these positions.

Historical scenarios

The historical benchmark stress scenario for the BBVA Group is Lehman Brothers, whose sudden collapse in September 2008 led to a significant impact on the behavior of financial markets at a global level. The following are the most relevant effects of this historical scenario:

● |  | Credit shock: reflected mainly in the increase of credit spreads and downgrades in credit ratings.

● |  | Increased volatility in most of the financial markets (giving rise to a great deal of variation in the prices of different assets (currency, equity, debt).

● |  | Liquidity shock in the financial systems, reflected by a major movement in interbank curves, particularly in the shortest sections of the euro and dollar curves.

Simulated scenarios

Unlike the historical scenarios, which are fixed and therefore not suited to the composition of the risk portfolio at all times, the scenario used for the exercises of economic stress is based on Resampling methodology. This methodology is based on the use of dynamic scenarios are recalculated periodically depending on the main risks held in the trading portfolios. On a data window wide enough to collect different periods of stress (data are taken from 1-1-2008 until today), a simulation is performed by resampling of historic observations, generating a loss distribution and profits to analyze most extreme of births in the selected historical window. The advantage of this resampling methodology is that the period of stress is not predetermined, but depends on the portfolio maintained at each time, and making a large number of simulations (10,000 simulations) allows a richer information for the analysis of expected shortfall than what is available in the scenarios included in the calculation of VaR.

The main features of this approach are: a) the generated simulations respect the correlation structure of the data, b) flexibility in the inclusion of new risk factors and c) to allow the introduction of a lot of variability in the simulations (desirable to consider extreme events).

The impact of the stress test under multivariable simulation of the risk factors of the portfolio (Expected shortfall 95% to 20 days) as of June 30, 2017 is as follows:

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Millions of Euros |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

7.4.2 Structural risk

The Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO) is the key body for the management of structural risks relating to liquidity/funding, interest rates, solvency and currency rates. Every month, with representatives from the areas of Finance, Risks and Business Areas, this committee monitors the above risks and is presented with proposals for managing them for its approval. These management proposals are made proactively by the Finance area, taking into account the risk appetite framework and with the aim of guaranteeing recurrent earnings and preserving the entity’s solvency. All the balance-sheet management units have a local ALCO, assisted constantly by the members of the Corporate Center. There is also a corporate ALCO where the management strategies in the Group’s subsidiaries are monitored and presented.

Structural interest-rate risk

The structural interest-rate risk (“SIRR”) is related to the potential impact that variations in market interest rates have on an entity’s net interest income and equity. In order to properly measure SIRR, BBVA takes into account the main sources that generate this risk: repricing risk, yield curve risk, option risk and basis risk, which are analyzed from two complementary points of view: net interest income (short term) and economic value (long term).

ALCO monitors the interest-rate risk metrics and the Finance area carries out the management proposals for the structural balance sheet. The management objective is to ensure the stability of net interest income and book value in the face of changes in market interest rates, while respecting the internal solvency and limits in the different balance-sheets and for BBVA Group as a whole; and complying with current and future regulatory requirements.

BBVA’s structural interest-rate risk management control and monitoring is based on a set of metrics and tools that enable the entity’s risk profile to be monitored correctly. A wide range of scenarios are measured on a regular basis, including sensitivities to parallel movements in the event of different shocks, changes in slope and curve, as well as delayed movements. Other probabilistic metrics based on statistical scenario-simulating methods are also assessed, such as income at risk (“IaR”) and economic capital (“EC”), which are defined as the maximum adverse deviations in net interest income and economic value, respectively, for a given confidence level and time horizon. Impact thresholds are established on these management metrics both in terms of deviations in net interest income and in terms of the impact on economic value. The process is carried out separately for each currency to which the Group is exposed, and the diversification effect between currencies and business units is considered after this.

In order to evaluate its effectiveness, the model is subjected to regular internal validation, which includes backtesting. In addition, the banking book’s interest-rate risk exposures are subjected to different stress tests in order to reveal balance sheet vulnerabilities under extreme scenarios. This testing includes an analysis of adverse macroeconomic scenarios designed specifically by BBVA Research, together with a wide range of potential scenarios that aim to identify interest-rate environments that are particularly damaging for the entity. This is done by generating extreme scenarios of a breakthrough in interest rate levels and historical correlations, giving rise to sudden changes in the slopes and even to inverted curves.

The model is necessarily underpinned by an elaborate set of hypotheses that aim to reproduce the behavior of the balance sheet as closely as possible to reality. Especially relevant among these assumptions are those related to the behavior of “accounts with no explicit maturity”, for which stability and remuneration assumptions are established, consistent with an adequate segmentation by type of product and customer, and prepayment estimates (implicit optionality). The hypotheses are reviewed and adapted, at least on an annual basis, to signs of changes in behavior, kept properly documented and reviewed on a regular basis in the internal validation processes.

The impacts on the metrics are assessed both from a point of view of economic value (gone concern) and from the perspective of net interest income, for which a dynamic model (going concern) consistent with the corporate assumptions of earnings forecasts is used.

The table below shows the profile of average sensitivities to net interest income and value of the main entities in BBVA Group in the first half of 2017 (certain information within this table is provisional. Its distribution should not be significantly affected):

| (*) | Percentage of “1 year” net interest income forecast for each unit.

| (**) | Percentage of net assets for each unit.

| (***) | In Europe downward movement allowed until more negative level than current rates.

In the first half of 2017 in Europe remained expansionary monetary policy, maintaining rates at 0%. In USA the rising rate cycle initiated by the Federal Reserve in 2015 was intensified. In Mexico and Turkey, the upward cycle has continued because of weak currencies and inflation prospects. In South America, monetary policy has been expansive, with rate declines in most of the economies where the Group operates, with the exception of Argentina, where rates increased during the first half of 2017.

The BBVA Group in all its Balance Sheet Management Units (“BSMUs”) maintains a positive sensitivity in its net interest income to an increase in interest rates. Turkey helps to diversify the Group’s net exposure due to the opposite direction of its position on Europe. The higher sensitivities in the net interest income, relatively speaking, are observed in mature markets (Europe and USA), where, however, the negative sensitivity in their net interest income to decrease in interest rates is limited by the plausible downward trend in interest rates. The Group maintains a moderate risk profile, according to its target risk, through effective management of its balance sheet structural risk.

Structural exchange-rate risk

In BBVA Group, structural exchange-rate risk arises from the consolidation of holdings in subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the euro. Its management is centralized in order to optimize the joint handling of permanent foreign currency exposures, taking into account the diversification.

The corporate Assets and Liabilities Management unit, through ALCO, designs and executes hedging strategies with the main purpose of controlling the potential negative effect of exchange-rate fluctuations on capital ratios and on the equivalent value in euros of the foreign-currency earnings of the Group’s subsidiaries, considering transactions according to market expectations and their cost.

The risk monitoring metrics included in the framework of limits are integrated into management and supplemented with additional assessment indicators. At corporate level they are based on probabilistic metrics that measure the maximum deviation in the Group’s Capital, CET1 (“Common Equity Tier 1”) ratio, and net attributable profit. The probabilistic metrics make it possible to estimate the joint impact of exposure to different currencies taking into account the different variability in exchange rates and their correlations.

The suitability of these risk assessment metrics is reviewed on a regular basis through backtesting exercises. The final element of structural exchange-rate risk control is the analysis of scenarios and stress with the aim of identifying in advance possible threats to future compliance with the risk appetite levels set, so that any necessary preventive management actions can be taken. The scenarios are based both on historical situations simulated by the risk model and on the risk scenarios provided by BBVA Research.

As for the market, in the first half of 2017 it is noteworthy the US dollar weakness, determining the underperformance against the euro of the Turkish lira and the currencies of Andean area in South America, while, on the contrary, Mexican peso appreciated significantly against US dollar, on the basis of better growth expectations for this economy.

The Group’s structural exchange-rate risk exposure level has remained fairly stable since the end of 2016 mostly due to the hedging policy, focused on Mexican peso and Turkish lira, intended to keep low levels of sensitivity to movements in the exchange rates of emerging currencies against the euro. The risk mitigation level in capital ratio due to the book value of BBVA Group’s holdings in foreign emerging currencies stood at around 70% and, as of the end of the first half of 2017, CET1 ratio sensitivity to the appreciation of 1% in the euro exchange rate for each currency is: US Dollar: +1.2 bps; Mexican peso -0.2 bps; Turkish Lira -0.1 bps; other currencies: -0.3 bps. On the other hand, hedging of emerging-currency denominated earnings of the first half of 2017 has reached a 61%, concentrated in Mexican peso and Turkish lira.

Structural equity risk

BBVA Group’s exposure to structural equity risk stems basically from investments in industrial and financial companies with medium- and long-term investment horizons. This exposure is mitigated through net short positions held in derivatives of their underlying assets, used to limit portfolio sensitivity to potential falls in prices.

Structural management of equity portfolios is the responsibility of the Group’s units specializing in this area. Their activity is subject to the corporate risk management policies for equity positions in the equity portfolio. The aim is to ensure that they are handled consistently with BBVA’s business model and appropriately to its risk tolerance level, thus enabling long-term business sustainability.

The Group’s risk management systems also make it possible to anticipate possible negative impacts and take appropriate measures to prevent damage being caused to the entity. The risk control and limitation mechanisms are focused on the exposure, annual operating performance and economic capital estimated for each portfolio. Economic capital is estimated in accordance with a corporate model based on Monte Carlo simulations, taking into account the statistical performance of asset prices and the diversification existing among the different exposures.

Stress tests and analyses of sensitivity to different simulated scenarios are carried out periodically to analyze the risk profile in more depth. They are based on both past crisis situations and forecasts made by BBVA Research. This checks that the risks are limited and that the tolerance levels set by the Group are not at risk.

Backtesting is carried out on a regular basis on the risk measurement model used.

In the market, it is remarkable the outperformance of stock markets in the first half of 2017, especially the Spanish stock exchange. It is also noteworthy the drop from the high levels of the previous year. This outperformance led to a significant increase in the value of Group’s equity portfolios as of the end of June 2017, and has favored the sale of the stake in China Citic Bank, realizing the accumulated capital gains.

Structural equity risk, measured in terms of economic capital, has remained stable in the period since the sale of the stake in China Citic Bank.

The aggregate sensitivity of the BBVA Group’s consolidated equity to a 1% fall in the price of shares of the companies making up the equity portfolio remained at around -€35 million as of June 30, 2017 and -€38 million as of December 31, 2016. This estimate takes into account the exposure in shares valued at market prices, or if not applicable, at fair value (excluding the positions in the Treasury Area portfolios) and the net delta-equivalent positions in derivatives on the same underlyings.

7.4.3 Financial Instruments offset

Financial assets and liabilities may be netted, i.e. they are presented for a net amount on the consolidated balance sheet only when the Group’s entities satisfy with the provisions of IAS 32-Paragraph 42, so they have both the legal right to net recognized amounts, and the intention of settling the net amount or of realizing the asset and simultaneously paying the liability.

In addition, the Group has presented as gross amounts assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet for which there are master netting arrangements in place, but for which there is no intention of settling net. The most common types of events that trigger the netting of reciprocal obligations are bankruptcy of the entity, surpassing certain level of indebtedness threshold, failure to pay, restructuring and dissolution of the entity.

In the current market context, derivatives are contracted under different framework contracts being the most widespread developed by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) and, for the Spanish market, the Framework Agreement on Financial Transactions (“CMOF”). Almost all portfolio derivative transactions have been concluded under these framework contracts, including in them the netting clauses mentioned in the preceding paragraph as “Master Netting Agreement”, greatly reducing the credit exposure on these instruments. Additionally, in contracts signed with professional counterparties, the collateral agreement annexes called Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) are included, thereby minimizing exposure to a potential default of the counterparty.

Moreover, in transactions involving assets purchased or sold under a purchase agreement there is a high volume transacted through clearing houses that articulate mechanisms to reduce counterparty risk, as well as through the signature of various master agreements for bilateral transactions, the most widely used being the Global Master Repurchase Agreement (GMRA), published by International Capital Market Association (“ICMA”), to which the clauses related to the collateral exchange are usually added within the text of the master agreement itself.

Management of liquidity and structural finance within the BBVA Group is based on the principle of the financial autonomy of the entities that make it up. This approach helps prevent and limit liquidity risk by reducing the Group’s vulnerability in periods of high risk. This decentralized management avoids possible contagion due to a crisis that could affect only one or several BBVA Group entities, which must cover their liquidity needs independently in the markets where they operate. Liquidity Management Units (LMUs) have been set up for this reason in the geographical areas where the main foreign subsidiaries operate, and also for the parent BBVA S.A., within the Euro currency scope, which includes BBVA Portugal.

Finance Division, through Global ALM, manages BBVA Group’s liquidity and funding. It plans and executes the funding of the long-term structural gap of each LMUs and proposes to ALCO the actions to adopt in this regard in accordance with the policies and limits established by the Standing Committee.

As first core element, the Bank’s target behavior in terms of liquidity and funding risk is characterized through the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and the Loan-to-Stable-Customer-Deposits (LtSCD) ratio. LCR is a regulatory measurement aimed at ensuring entities’ resistance in a scenario of liquidity stress within a time horizon of 30 days. BBVA, within its risk appetite framework and its limits and alerts schemes, has established a level of requirement for compliance with the LCR ratio both for the Group as a whole and for each of the LMUs individually. The internal levels required are geared to comply sufficiently and efficiently in advance with the implementation of the regulatory requirement of 2018, at a level above 100%.

Throughout the first half of 2017 the level of the LCR for BBVA Group has remained above 100%. At the European level the LCR ratio was effective beginning October 1, 2015, with an initial required level of 60%, and a phased-in level of up to 100% in 2018.

The LtSCD measures the relation between the net credit investment and stable funds. The aim is to preserve a stable funding structure in the medium term for each of the LMUs making up BBVA Group, taking into account that maintaining an adequate volume of stable customer funds is key to achieving a sound liquidity profile.

Customer funds captured and managed by business units are defined as stable customer funds. These funds usually show little sensitivity to market changes and are largely non-volatile in terms of aggregate amounts per operation, thanks to customer linkage to the unit. Stable funds in each LMU are calculated by analyzing the behavior of the balance sheets of the different customer segments identified as likely to provide stability to the funding structure, and by prioritizing an established relationship and applying bigger haircuts to the funding lines of less stable customers. The main base of stable funds is composed of deposits by individual customers and small businesses.

For the purpose of establishing the (maximum) target levels for LtSCD in each LMU and providing an optimal funding structure reference in terms of risk appetite, GRM-Structural Risks identifies and assesses the economic and financial variables that condition the funding structures in the various geographical areas. The behavior of the indicators reflects that the funding structure remained robust in the first half of 2017 and in the year 2016, in the sense that all the LMUs maintain levels of self-funding with stable customer funds higher than the required levels.

LtSCD by LMU |  | June 2017 |  | December 2016
Group (average) |  | 112% |  | 113%
Eurozone |  | 112% |  | 113%
Bancomer |  | 114% |  | 113%
Compass |  | 110% |  | 108%
Garanti |  | 122% |  | 124%
Other LMUs |  | 105% |  | 107%

The second core element in liquidity and funding risk management is to achieve proper diversification of the funding structure, avoiding excessive reliance on short-term funding and establishing a maximum level of short-term borrowing comprising both wholesale funding as well as less stable funds from non-retail customers. Regarding long-term funding, the maturity profile does not show significant concentrations, which enables adaptation of the anticipated issuance schedule to the best financial conditions of the markets. Finally, concentration risk is monitored at the LMU level, with a view to ensuring the right diversification both per counterparty and per instrument type.

The third element promotes the short-term resilience of the liquidity risk profile, making sure that each LMU has sufficient collateral to address the risk of wholesale markets closing. Basic Capacity is the short-term liquidity risk management and control metric that is defined as the relationship between the available explicit assets and the maturities of wholesale liabilities and volatile funds, at different terms, with special relevance being given to 30-day maturities.

Each entity maintains an individual liquidity buffer, both Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA and its subsidiaries, including BBVA Compass, BBVA Bancomer, Garanti Bank and the Latin American subsidiaries.

Stress analyses are also a basic element of the liquidity and funding risk monitoring system, as they help anticipate deviations from the liquidity targets and limits set out in the risk appetite as well as establish tolerance ranges at different management levels. They also play a key role in the design of the Liquidity Contingency Plan and in defining the specific measures for action for realigning the risk profile.

For each of the scenarios, a check is carried out whether the Bank has sufficient liquid assets to meet the liquidity commitments/outflows in the various periods analyzed. The analysis considers four scenarios, one core and three crisis-related: systemic crisis; unexpected internal crisis with a considerable rating downgrade and/or affecting the ability to issue in wholesale markets and the perception of business risk by the banking intermediaries and the bank’s customers; and a mixed scenario, as a combination of the two aforementioned scenarios. Each scenario considers the following factors: liquidity existing on the market, customer behavior and sources of funding, impact of rating downgrades, market values of liquid assets and collateral, and the interaction between liquidity requirements and the performance of the bank’s asset quality.

The results of these stress analyses carried out regularly reveal that BBVA has a sufficient buffer of liquid assets to deal with the estimated liquidity outflows in a scenario such as a combination of a systemic crisis and an unexpected internal crisis, during a period in general longer than 3 months for LMUs, including a major downgrade in the bank’s rating (by up to three notches).

Beside the results of stress exercises and risk metrics, Early Warning Indicators play an important role in the corporate model and also in the Liquidity Contingency Plan. These are mainly financing structure indicators, related to asset encumbrance, counterparty concentration, outflows of customer deposits, unexpected use of credit lines, and market indicators, which help to anticipate potential risks and capture market expectations.

The matrix shows the retail nature of the funding structure, with a loan portfolio being mostly funded by customer deposits. On the outflows side of the matrix, the “demand” maturity bucket mainly contains the retail customers sight accounts whose behavior shows a high level of stability. According to internal methodology they are estimated to mature on average in more than three years.

In the Euro Liquidity Management Unit (LMU), solid liquidity and funding situation, where activity has continued to generate liquidity, as the evolution of deposits has shown a positive trend decreasing the credit gap. In addition, over the first half of 2017 the Euro LMU made issues in the public market for €3.5 billion, which has allowed it to obtain funding at favorable price conditions.

In Mexico, sound liquidity position, the dependence on wholesale financing remains low and closely associated with the securities portfolios. In the second quarter of 2017, BBVA Bancomer made two local issuances at 3 and 5 years for € 338 million.

In the United States, the containment of the cost of liabilities has led to an increase in the credit gap. At the end of June, 2017 BBVA Compass successfully issued 5 year senior debt for USD 750 million after two years out of the markets.

In Turkey, comfortable liquidity situation with modest widening in total credit gap due to the acceleration of the Turkish Lira lending activity in sector. During the first half of 2017, Garanti realized $1,250 million foreign currency and €150 million equivalent Turkish lira long term issuances. In addition to that, the syndication loans have been almost fully rolled over in the second quarter.

The liquidity position of the rest of subsidiaries has continued to be sound, maintaining a solid liquidity position in all the jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Access to capital markets of these subsidiaries has also been maintained with recurring issuances in the local market.

In this context, BBVA has maintained its objective of strengthening the funding structure of the different Group entities based on growing their self-funding from stable customer funds, while guaranteeing a sufficient buffer of fully available liquid assets, diversifying the various sources of funding available, and optimizing the generation of collateral available for dealing with stress situations in the markets.

7.5.2 Asset encumbrance

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the encumbered (those provided as collateral for certain liabilities) and unencumbered assets are broken down as follows:

|  |  |  |  | Millions of Euros |
|  |  |  |  | Encumbered assets |  |  | Non-Encumbered assets |
June 2017 |  |  |  |  | Book value of Encumbered assets |  |  | Market value of Encumbered assets |  |  | Book value of non- encumbered assets |  |  | Market value of non- encumbered assets |
Equity instruments |  |  |  |  |  |  | 1,912 |  |  |  | 1,912 |  |  |  | 8,463 |  |  |  | 8,463 |

Loans and Advances and other assets |  |  |  |  |  |  | 85,886 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 482,478 |  |  |  | - |
|  |  |  |  | Millions of Euros |
|  |  |  |  | Encumbered assets |  |  | Non-Encumbered assets |
December 2016 |  |  |  |  | Book value of Encumbered assets |  |  | Market value of Encumbered assets |  |  | Book value of non- encumbered assets |  |  | Market value of non- encumbered assets |
Equity instruments |  |  |  |  |  |  | 2,214 |  |  |  | 2,214 |  |  |  | 9,022 |  |  |  | 9,022 |

Loans and Advances and other assets |  |  |  |  |  |  | 94,718 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 495,109 |  |  |  | - |

The committed value of “Loans and Advances and other assets” corresponds mainly to loans linked to the issue of covered bonds, territorial bonds or long-term securitized bonds (see Note 22.3) as well as those used as a guarantee to access certain funding transactions with central banks. Debt securities and equity instruments respond to underlying that are delivered in repos with different types of counterparties, mainly clearing houses or credit institutions, and to a lesser extent central banks. Collateral provided to guarantee derivative operations is also included as committed assets.

7.6 Operational Risk

Operational risk is defined as one that could potentially cause losses due to human errors, inadequate or faulty internal processes, system failures or external events. This definition includes legal risk but excludes strategic and/or business risk and reputational risk.

F-85

##### Table of Contents

Operational risk is inherent to all banking activities, products, systems and processes. Its origins are diverse (processes, internal and external fraud, technology, human resources, commercial practices, disasters, suppliers). Operational risk management is a part of the BBVA Group global risk management structure.

Operational risk management framework

Operational risk management in the Group is based on the value-adding drivers generated by the advanced measurement approach (AMA), as follows:

● |  | Active management of operational risk and its integration into day-to-day decision-making means:

| – | Knowledge of the real losses associated with this type of risk.

| – | Identification, prioritization and management of real and potential risks.

| – | The existence of indicators that enable the Bank to analyze operational risk over time, define warning signals and verify the effectiveness of the controls associated with each risk.

● |  | The above helps create a proactive model for making decisions about control and business, and for prioritizing the efforts to mitigate relevant risks in order to reduce the Group’s exposure to extreme events.

● |  | Improved control environment and strengthened corporate culture.

● |  | Generation of a positive reputational impact.

● |  | Model based on three lines of defense, aligned with international best practices.

Operational Risk Management Principles

Operational risk management in BBVA Group should:

● |  | Be aligned with the risk appetite framework statement set out by the Board of BBVA.

● |  | Anticipate the potential operational risks to which the Group would be exposed as a result of new or modified products, activities, processes, systems or outsourcing decisions, and establish procedures to enable their evaluation and reasonable mitigation prior to their implementation.

● |  | Establish methodologies and procedures to enable a regular reassessment of the relevant operational risks to which the Group is exposed in order to adopt appropriate mitigation measures in each case, once the identified risk and the cost of mitigation (cost/benefit analysis) have been considered, while preserving the Group’s solvency at all times.

● |  | Identify the causes of the operational losses sustained by the Group and establish measures to reduce them. Procedures must therefore be in place to enable the capture and analysis of the operational events that cause those losses.

● |  | Analyze the events that have caused operational risk losses in other institutions in the financial sector and promote, where appropriate, the implementation of the measures needed to prevent them from occurring in the Group.

● |  | Identify, analyze and quantify events with a low probability of occurrence and high impact in order to evaluate their mitigation. Due to their exceptional nature, it is possible that such events may not be included in the loss database or, if they are, they have impacts that are not representative.

● |  | Have an effective system of governance in place, where the functions and responsibilities of the areas and bodies involved in operational risk management are clearly defined.

These principles reflect BBVA Group’s vision of operational risk, on the basis that the resulting events have an ultimate cause that should always be identified, and that the impact of the events is reduced significantly by controlling that cause.

Irrespective of the adoption of all the possible measures and controls for preventing or reducing both the frequency and severity of operational risk events, BBVA ensures at all times that sufficient capital is available to cover any expected or unexpected losses that may occur.

7.7 Risk concentration

Policies for preventing excessive risk concentration

In order to prevent the build-up of excessive concentrations of credit risk at the individual, country and sector levels, BBVA Group maintains maximum permitted risk concentration indices updated at individual and portfolio sector levels tied to the various observable variables within the field of credit risk management.

The limit on the Group’s exposure or financial commitment to a specific customer therefore depends on the customer’s credit rating, the nature of the risks involved, and the Group’s presence in a given market, based on the following guidelines:

● |  | The aim is, as much as possible, to reconcile the customer’s credit needs (commercial/financial, short-term/long-term, etc.) with the interests of the Group.

● |  | Any legal limits that may exist concerning risk concentration are taken into account (relationship between risks with a customer and the capital of the shareholder´s entity that assumes them), the markets, the macroeconomic situation, etc.

Risk concentrations by geography

The breakdown of the main figures in the most significant foreign currencies in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is set forth in Appendix X.

Sovereign risk concentration

Sovereign risk management

The risk associated with the transactions involving sovereign risk is identified, measured, controlled and tracked by a centralized unit integrated in the BBVA Group’s Risk Area. Its basic functions involve the preparation of reports in the countries where sovereign risk exists (called “financial programs”), tracking such risks, assigning ratings to these countries and, in general, supporting the Group in terms of reporting requirements for any transactions involving sovereign risk. The risk policies established in the financial programs are approved by the relevant risk committees.

The country risk unit tracks the evolution of the risks associated with the various countries to which the Group are exposed (including sovereign risk) on an ongoing basis in order to adapt its risk and mitigation policies to any macroeconomic and political changes that may occur. Moreover, it regularly updates its internal ratings and forecasts for these countries. The methodology is based on the assessment of quantitative and qualitative parameters which are in line with those used by certain multilateral organizations such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, rating agencies and export credit organizations.

For additional information on sovereign risk in Europe see Appendix X.

Valuation and impairment methods

The valuation methods used to assess the instruments that are subject to sovereign risks are the same ones used for other instruments included in the relevant portfolios and are detailed in Note 8.

Specifically, the fair value of sovereign debt securities of European countries has been considered equivalent to their listed price in active markets (Level 1 as defined in Note 8).

Risk related to the developer and Real-Estate sector in Spain

One of the main Group activities of the Group in Spain is focused on developer and mortgage loans. The policies and strategies established by the Group to deal with risks related to the developer and real-estate sector are explained below:

F-87

##### Table of Contents

Policies and strategies established by the Group to deal with risks related to the developer and real-estate sector

BBVA has teams specializing in the management of the Real-Estate Sector risk, given its economic importance and specific technical component. This specialization is not only in the Risk-Acceptance teams, but throughout the handling, commercial, problem risks and legal, etc. It also includes the research department of the BBVA Group (BBVA Research), which helps determine the medium/long-term vision needed to manage this portfolio. Specialization has been increased and the management teams in the areas of recovery and the Real Estate Unit itself have been reinforced.

The policies established to address the risks related to the developer and real-estate sector, aim to accomplish, among others, the following objectives: to avoid concentration in terms of customers, products and regions; to estimate the risk profile for the portfolio; and to anticipate possible worsening of the portfolio.

Specific policies for analysis and admission of new developer risk transactions

In the analysis of new operations, the assessment of the commercial operation in terms of the economic and financial viability of the project has been one of the constant points that have helped ensure the success and transformation of construction land operations for customers’ developments.

With regard the participation of the Risk Acceptance teams, they have a direct link and participate in the committees of areas such as Recoveries and the Real Estate Unit. This guarantees coordination and exchange of information in all the processes.

The following strategies have been implemented with customers in the developer sector: avoidance of large corporate transactions, which had already reduced their share in the years of greatest market growth; non active participation in the second-home market; commitment to public housing financing; and participation in land operations with a high level of urban development security, giving priority to land open to urban development.

Risk monitoring policies

The base information for analyzing the real estate portfolios is updated monthly. The tools used include the so-called “watch-list”, which is updated monthly with the progress of each client under watch, and the different strategic plans for management of special groups. There are plans that involve an intensification of the review of the portfolio for financing land, while, in the case of ongoing promotions, they are classified based on the rate of progress of the projects.

These actions have enabled BBVA to identify possible impairment situations, by always keeping an eye on BBVA’s position with each customer (whether or not as first creditor). In this regard, key aspects include management of the risk policy to be followed with each customer, contract review, deadline extension, improved collateral, rate review (repricing) and asset purchase.

Proper management of the relationship with each customer requires knowledge of various aspects such as the identification of the source of payment difficulties, an analysis of the company’s future viability, the updating of the information on the debtor and the guarantors (their current situation and business course, economic-financial information, debt analysis and generation of funds), and the updating of the appraisal of the assets offered as collateral.

BBVA has a classification of debtors in accordance with legislation in force in each country, usually categorizing each one’s level of difficulty for each risk.

Based on the information above, a decision is made whether to use the refinancing tool, whose objective is to adjust the structure of the maturity of the debt to the generation of funds and the customer’s payment capacity.

As for the policies relating to risk refinancing with the developer and real-estate sector, they are the same as the general policies used for all of the Group’s risks (see Note 7.3.6). In the developer and real estate sector, they are based on clear solvency and viability criteria for projects, with demanding terms for additional guarantees and legal compliance, given a refinancing tool that standardizes criteria and variables when considering any refinancing operation.

In the case of refinancing, the tools used for enhancing the Bank’s position are: the search for new intervening parties with proven solvency and initial payment to reduce the principal debt or outstanding interest; the improvement of the debt bond in order to facilitate the procedure in the event of default; the provision of new or additional collateral; and making refinancing viable with new conditions (period, rate and repayments), adapted to a credible and sufficiently verified business plan.

Policies applied in the management of real estate assets in Spain

The policy applied for managing these assets depends on the type of real-estate asset, as detailed below.

| ● |  | In the case of completed homes, the final aim is the sale of these homes to private individuals, thus reducing the risk and beginning a new business cycle. Here, the strategy has been to help subrogation (the default rate in this channel of business is notably lower than in any other channel of residential mortgages) and to support customers’ sales directly, using BBVA’s own channel (BBVA Services and our branches), creating incentives for sale and including sale orders for BBVA. In exceptional case we have even accepted partial haircuts, with the aim of making the sale easier.

| ● |  | In the case of ongoing home construction, the strategy has been to help and promote the completion of the construction in order to transfer the investment to completed homes. The whole developer Works in Progress portfolio has been reviewed and classified into different stages with the aim of using different tools to support the strategy. This includes the use of developer accounts-payable financing as a form of payment control, the use of project monitoring supported by the Real Estate Unit itself, and the management of direct suppliers for the works as a complement to the developer’s own management.

| ● |  | With respect to land, the fact that the risk of rustic land is not significant simplifies the management. Urban management and liquidity control to tackle urban planning costs are also subject to special monitoring.

For quantitative information about the risk related to the developer and Real-Estate sector in Spain see Appendix X.

8. Fair value

8.1 Fair value of financial instrument

The fair value of financial instrument is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is therefore a market-based measurement and not specific to each entity.

All financial instruments, both assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, which at that point is equivalent to the transaction price, unless there is evidence to the contrary in the market. Subsequently, depending on the type of financial instrument, it may continue to be recognized at amortized cost or fair value through adjustments in the consolidated income statement or equity.

When possible, the fair value is determined as the market price of a financial instrument. However, for many of the financial assets and liabilities of the Group, especially in the case of derivatives, there is no market price available, so its fair value is estimated on the basis of the price established in recent transactions involving similar instruments or, in the absence thereof, by using mathematical measurement models that are sufficiently tried and trusted by the international financial community. The estimates of the fair value derived from the use of such models take into consideration the specific features of the asset or liability to be measured and, in particular, the various types of risk associated with the asset or liability. However, the limitations inherent in the measurement models and possible inaccuracies in the assumptions and parameters required by these models may mean that the estimated fair value of an asset or liability does not exactly match the price for which the asset or liability could be exchanged or settled on the date of its measurement.

As part of the process established in the Group for determining the fair value in order to ensure that trading portfolio assets are properly valued, BBVA has established, at a geographic level, a structure of New Product Committees responsible for validating and approving new products or types of financial assets and liabilities before being contracted. Local responsible for valuation, are independent from the business (see Note 7) are members of these Committees.

These areas are required to ensure, prior to the approval stage, the existence of not only technical and human resources, but also adequate informational sources to measure the fair value these financial assets and liabilities, in accordance with the rules established by the Global Valuation Area and using models that have been validated and approved by the Risk Analytics Department that reports to Global Risk Management.

Additionally, for financial assets and liabilities that show significant uncertainty in inputs or model parameters used for valuation, criteria is established to measure said uncertainty and activity limits are set based on these. Finally, these measurements are compared, as much as possible, against other sources such as the measurements obtained by the business teams or those obtained by other market participants.

F-89

##### Table of Contents

The process for determining the fair value requires the classification of the financial assets and liabilities according to the measurement processes used as set forth below:

● |  | Level 1: Measurement using market observable quoted prices for the financial instrument in question, secured from independent sources and trading in referred to active markets - according to the Group policies. This level includes, listed equity instruments, some debt securities, some derivatives and mutual funds.

● |  | Level 2: Measurement that applies techniques using inputs drawn from observable market data.

● |  | Level 3: Measurement using techniques where some of the material inputs are not derived from market observable data. As of June 30, 2017, the affected instruments accounted for approximately 0.12% of financial assets and 0.02% of the Group’s financial liabilities registered at fair value. Model selection and validation is undertaken by control areas outside the market units.

Below is a comparison of the carrying amount of the Group’s financial instruments in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and their respective fair values.

The main techniques used for the assessment of the main financial instruments classified in Level 3, and its main unobservable inputs, are described below:

● |  | The net present value (net present value method): This technique uses the future cash flows of each debt security, which are established in the different contracts, and discounted to their present value. This technique often includes many observable inputs, but may also include unobservable inputs, as described below:

| – | Credit Spread: This input represents the difference in yield of a debt security and the reference rate, reflecting the additional return that a market participant would require to take the credit risk of that debt security. Therefore, the credit spread of the debt security is part of the discount rate used to calculate the present value of the future cash flows.

| – | Recovery rate: This input represents the percentage of principal and interest recovered from a debt instrument that has defaulted.

● |  | Comparable prices (similar asset prices): This input represents the prices of comparable financial instruments and benchmarks used to calculate a reference yield based on relative movements from the entry price or current market levels. Further adjustments to account for differences that may exist between financial instrument being valued and the comparable financial instrument may be added. It can also be assumed that the price of the financial instrument is equivalent to the other.

● |  | Net asset value: This input represents the total value of the financial assets and liabilities of a fund and is published by the fund manager thereof.

● |  | Gaussian copula: This model is used to integrate default probabilities of credit instruments referenced to more than one underlying CDS. The joint density function used to value the instrument is constructed by using a Gaussian copula that relates the marginal densities by a normal distribution, usually extracted from the correlation matrix of events approaching default by CDS issuers.

● |  | Black 76: variant of Black Scholes model, whose main application is the valuation of bond options, cap floors and swaptions where the behavior of the Forward and not the Spot itself, is directly modeled.

● |  | Heston: This model, typically applied to equity OTC options, assumes stochastic behavior of volatility. According to which, the volatility follows a process that reverts to a long-term level and is correlated with the underlying equity instrument. As opposed to local volatility models, in which the volatility evolves deterministically, the Heston model is more flexible, allowing it to be similar to that observed in the short term today.

● |  | Libor market model: This model assumes that the dynamics of the interest rate curve can be modeled based on the set of forward contracts that compose the interest rate underlying. The correlation matrix is parameterized on the assumption that the correlation between any two forward contracts decreases at a constant rate, beta, to the extent of the difference in their respective due dates. The input “Credit default volatility” is a volatility input of the credit factor dynamic. The multifactorial frame of this model makes it ideal for the valuation of instruments sensitive to the slope or curve, including interest rate option.

Adjustments to the valuation for risk of default

The credit valuation adjustments (“CVA”) and debit valuation adjustments (“DVA”) are a part of derivative instrument valuations, both financial assets and liabilities, to reflect the impact in the fair value of the credit risk of the counterparty and its own, respectively.

These adjustments are calculated by estimating Exposure At Default, Probability of Default and Loss Given Default, for all derivative products on any instrument at the legal entity level (all counterparties under a same ISDA / CMOF) in which BBVA has exposure.

As a general rule, the calculation of CVA is done through simulations of market and credit variables to calculate the expected positive exposure, given the Exposure at Default and multiplying the result by the Loss Given Default of the counterparty. Consequently, the DVA is calculated as the result of the expected negative exposure given the Exposure at Default and multiplying the result by the Loss Given Default of the counterparty. Both calculations are performed throughout the entire period of potential exposure.

The information needed to calculate the exposure at default and the loss given default come from the credit markets (Credit Default Swaps or iTraxx Indexes), where rating is available. For those cases where the rating is not available, BBVA implements a mapping process based on the sector, rating and geography to assign probabilities of both probability of default and loss given default, calibrated directly to market or with an adjustment market factor for the probability of default and the historical expected loss.

The amounts recognized in the Consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 related to the valuation adjustments to the credit assessment of the derivative asset as “Credit Valuation Adjustments” (“CVA”) and the derivative liabilities were €201 million and €179 million respectively. The impact recorded under “Gains or (-) losses on financial assets and liabilities held for trading, net” in the consolidated income statement during the first semester of 2017 and 2016 corresponding to the mentioned adjustments was a net impact of -€60 million and €17 million respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the profit/loss on sales of financial instruments classified as Level 3 recognized in the accompanying consolidated income statement was not material.

Transfers between levels

The Global Valuation Area, in collaboration with the Technology and Methodology Area, has established the rules for a proper financials assets held for trading classification according to the fair value hierarchy defined by international accounting standards.

On a monthly basis, any new assets added to the portfolio are classified, according to this criterion, by the accounting subsidiary. Then, there is a quarterly review of the portfolio in order to analyze the need for a change in classification of any of these assets.

The amount of financial instruments that were transferred between levels of valuation during the first semester of 2017 is not material relative to the total portfolios, basically corresponding to the above revisions of the classification between levels because these financial instruments had modified some of its features. Specifically:

• | Transfers between Levels 1 and 2 represents mainly debt securities, which are either no longer listed on an active market (transfer from Level 1 to 2) or are just starting to be listed (transfer from Level 2 to 1).

• | Transfers from Level 1 to Level 3 affect equity instruments, using variables not obtained from observable date in the market.

• | Transfers between Levels 3 and 2 are carried out in equity instruments that change from applying commonly accepted valuation techniques using market observable data to using others that do not apply observable data.

Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis is performed on financial instruments with significant unobservable inputs (financial instruments included in level 3), in order to obtain a reasonable range of possible alternative valuations. This analysis is carried out on a monthly basis, based on the criteria defined by the Global Valuation Area taking into account the nature of the methods used for the assessment and the reliability and availability of inputs and proxies used. In order to establish, with a sufficient degree of certainty, the valuating risk that is incurred in such assets without applying diversification criteria between them.

As of June 30, 2017, the effect on profit for the period and total equity of changing the main unobservable inputs used for the measurement of Level 3 financial instruments for other reasonably possible unobservable inputs, taking the highest (most favorable input) or lowest (least favorable input) value of the range deemed probable, would be as follows:

8.1.2 | Fair value of financial instruments carried at cost

The valuation technique used to calculate the fair value of financial assets and liabilities carried at cost are presented below:

• | The fair value of “Cash and cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits” approximates their book value, as it is mainly short-term balances.

• | The fair value of the “Loans and receivables”, “Held-to-maturity investments” and “financial liabilities at amortized cost” was estimated using the method of discounted expected future cash flows using market interest rates at the end of each year. Additionally, factors such as prepayment rates and correlations of default are taken into account.

The following table presents the fair value of key financial instruments carried at amortized cost in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, broken down according to the method of valuation used for the estimation:

Financial instruments at cost

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 there were equity instruments and certain discretionary profit-sharing arrangements in some entities which were recognized at cost in the Group’s consolidated balance sheets because their fair value could not be reliably determined, as they were not traded in organized markets and reliable unobservable inputs are not available. On the above dates, the balances of these financial instruments recognized in the portfolio of available-for-sale financial assets amounted to €621 million and €565 million, respectively.

The table below outlines the financial instruments carried at cost that were sold in the six months period ended June 30, 2017 and during the year 2016:

|  | Millions of Euros |

8.2 Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

As indicated in Note 2.2.4, non-current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their fair value less costs to sell and its carrying amount. As of June 30, 2017 nearly the entire book value of the non-current assets held for sale from foreclosures or recoveries approximate their fair value (see Note 20 and 21). The global valuation of the portfolio of assets has been carried out using a statistical methodology based on real estate and local macroeconomic variables.

Real estate properties have been appraised individually considering a hypothetical stand-alone sale and not as part of a real estate portfolio type of sale.

The portfolio of Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale by type of asset and inventories as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is provided below by hierarchy of fair value measurements:

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the most significant balances within financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss related to assets and liabilities linked to insurance products where the policyholder bears the risk (“Unit-Link”). This type of product is sold only in Spain, through BBVA Seguros SA, insurance and reinsurance and in Mexico through Seguros Bancomer S.A. de CV.

Since the liabilities linked to insurance products in which the policyholder assumes the risk are valued the same way as the assets associated to these insurance products, there is no credit risk component borne by the Group in relation to these liabilities.

Debt securities

During the first semester 2017, the debt securities recoveries recognized in the heading “Impairment or reversal of impairment on financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss- Available- for-sale financial assets” in the accompanying consolidated income statement amounted to €11 million. In the first semester of 2016 the impairment recognized was €125 million (see Note 47).

For the rest of debt securities, the 89.1% of the unrealized losses recognized under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss– Available-for-sale financial assets” and originating in debt securities were generated over more than twelve months. However, no impairment was recognized, as following an analysis of these unrealized losses we concluded that they were temporary due to the following reasons: the interest payment dates of all the fixed-income securities have been satisfied; and because there is no evidence that the issuer will not continue to meet its payment obligations, nor that future payments of both principal and interest will not be sufficient to recover the cost of the debt securities.

Equity instruments

As mentioned in Note 2.2.1, as a general policy, the Group considers that there is objective evidence of impairment on equity instruments classified as available-for-sale when, in a consistent manner, significant unrealized losses have existed over a sustained period of time due to a price reduction of at least 40% or over a period of more than 18 months.

However, when assessing the objective evidence of impairment, the Group takes into account the price volatility of each instrument individually, to determine whether it is a recoverable amount if sold to the market. There may be other thresholds for certain specific securities or sectors.

As of June 30, 2017, the Group’s most significant investment in equity instruments classified as available for sale was the participation in Telefónica, S.A. (Telefónica), which accounted for approximately 70% of the portfolio of listed equity instruments classified as available for sale financial assets.

The Group periodically monitors the valuation of its participation in Telefónica, taking into account the volatility of the share price and the estimated amount recoverable through its sale in the market.

BBVA considers that the use of volatility is an appropriate reference for categorizing investments with similar risk profiles when determining if there is a prolonged decline in value. The comparison of the volatility of Telefónica’s shares with other market benchmarks shows a clearly lower level of volatility in these shares in the periods observed until June 2017.

As a consequence, beginning 2012, the time threshold that the Group monitors when assessing the possible existence of impairment in the case of Telefónica’s participation when there is a prolonged decline in share price is calculated by using its volatility analysis, being greater than 18 months.

As of June 30, 2017, Telefónica shares had been below the average share acquisition cost for a period of 19.4 months, within the range contemplated in the specific policy for these securities. As of that date, the unrealized loss for Telefónica amounted to €880 million and is recorded in equity under “Accumulated other comprehensive income – Items that may be reclassified to profit and loss – Available for sale financial assets”.

In the first six months of 2017, the unrealized losses recognized under the heading “Accumulated other comprehensive income - Items that may be reclassified to profit or loss– Available-for-sale financial assets” resulting from equity instruments are not significant in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

19. Tax assets and liabilities

19.1 Consolidated tax group

Pursuant to current legislation, the BBVA Consolidated Tax Group includes the Bank (as the parent company) and its Spanish subsidiaries that meet the requirements provided for under Spanish legislation regulating the taxation regime for the consolidated profit of corporate groups.

The Group’s non-Spanish other banks and subsidiaries file tax returns in accordance with the tax legislation in force in each country.

19.2 Years open for review by the tax authorities

The years open to review in the BBVA Consolidated Tax Group as of June 30, 2017 are 2014 and subsequent years for the main taxes applicable.

The remainders of the Spanish consolidated entities in general have the last four years open for inspection by the tax authorities for the main taxes applicable, except for those in which there has been an interruption of the limitation period due to the start of an inspection.

In the year 2017 as a consequence of the tax authorities examination reviews, inspections were initiated until the year 2013 inclusive, all of them signed in acceptance during the year 2017. In this way, these inspections did not constitute any material amount for the understanding of the consolidated annual accounts and their impact was provisioned.

In view of the varying interpretations that can be made of some applicable tax legislation, the outcome of the tax inspections of the open years that could be conducted by the tax authorities in the future could give rise to contingent tax liabilities which cannot be reasonably estimated at the present time. However, the Group considers that the possibility of these contingent liabilities becoming actual liabilities is remote and, in any case, the tax charge which might arise therefore would not materially affect the Group’s accompanying interim consolidated financial statements.

With respect to the changes in assets and liabilities due to deferred tax contained in the above table, the following should be pointed out:

- The evolution of the deferred tax assets and liabilities (without taking into consideration the guaranteed deferred tax asset and the tax losses) in net terms is a decrease of €280 million mainly motivated by the operation of the corporate income tax in which differences between accounting and taxation produce movements in the deferred taxes.

- The increase in tax losses is mainly due to the generation of negative tax bases and deductions during year 2017.

On the assets and liabilities due to deferred tax contained in the above table, those included in section 19.4 above have been recognized against the entity’s equity, and the rest against earnings for the year.

As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the estimated amount of temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, which were not recognized deferred tax liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets taxes, amounted to 874 million euros.

Of the deferred tax assets contained in the above table, the detail of the items and amounts guaranteed by the Spanish and Portuguese governments, broken down by the items that originated those assets is as follows:

|  |  |  | Millions of Euros |
Secured tax assets |  |  |  | June 2017 |  |  | December 2016 |
Pensions |  |  |  |  | 1,894 |  |  |  | 1,901 |
Impairment losses |  |  |  |  | 7,530 |  |  |  | 7,530 |
Total |  |  |  |  | 9,424 |  |  |  | 9,431 |

As of June 30, 2017, non-guaranteed net deferred tax assets of the above table amounted to €3,376 million (€3,568 as of December 31, 2016), which broken down by major geographies is as follows:

● |  | Spain: Net deferred tax assets recognized in Spain totaled €1,941 million as of June 30, 2017 (€2,007 as of December 31, 2016). €1,191 million of the figure recorded in the first semester ended June 30, 2017 for net deferred tax assets related to tax credits and tax loss carry forwards and €750 million relate to temporary differences.

● |  | Mexico: Net deferred tax assets recognized in Mexico amounted to €713 million as of June 30, 2017 (€698 million as of December 31, 2016). 99.95% of deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2017 relate to temporary differences. The remainders are tax credits carry forwards.

● |  | South America: Net deferred tax assets recognized in South America amounted to €249 million as of June 30, 2017 (€362 million as of December 31, 2016). All the deferred tax assets relate to temporary differences.

● |  | The United States: Net deferred tax assets recognized in The United States amounted to €288 million as of June 30, 2017 (€345 million as of December 31, 2016). All the deferred tax assets relate to temporary differences.

The first two issuances are listed in the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited and the last two issuances are listed in the Global Exchange Market of the Irish Stock Exchange. Furthermore, these four issuances qualify as additional tier 1 capital of the Bank and/or the Group in accordance with Regulation UE 575/2013 (see Note 26).

These perpetual securities will be converted into newly issued ordinary shares of BBVA if the CET 1 ratio of the Bank or the Group is less than 5.125%, in accordance with their respective terms and conditions.

These issues may be fully redeemed at BBVA´s option only in the cases contemplated in their respective terms and conditions, and in any case, in accordance with the provisions of the applicable legislation.

23. Liabilities under reinsurance and insurance contracts

The Group has insurance subsidiaries mainly in Spain and Latin America (mostly in Mexico). The main product offered by the insurance subsidiaries is life insurance to cover the risk of death (risk insurance) and life-savings insurance. Within life and accident insurance, a distinction is made between freely sold products and those offered to customers who have taken mortgage or consumer loans, which cover the principal of those loans in the event of the customer’s death.

There are two types of life-saving insurance products: individual insurance, which seeks to provide the customer with savings for retirement or other events, and group insurance, which is taken out by employers to cover their commitments to their employees.

The insurance business is affected by different risks, including those that are related to the BBVA Group such as credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and operational risk and the methodology for risk measurement applied in the insurance activity is similar (see Note 7), although it has a differentiated management due to the particular characteristics of the insurance business, such as the coverage of contracted obligations and the long term of the commitments. Additionally, the insurance business generates certain specific risks, of a probabilistic nature:

● |  | Technical risk: arises from deviations in the estimation of the casualty rate of insurances, either in terms of numbers, the amount of such claims and the timing of its occurrence.

● |  | Biometric risk: depending on the deviations in the expected mortality behavior or the survival of the insured persons.

The insurance industry is highly regulated in each country. In this regard, it should be noted that the insurance industry is undergoing a gradual regulatory transformation through new capital regulations risk-based, which have already been published in several countries.

The most significant provisions recognized by consolidated insurance subsidiaries with respect to insurance policies issued by them are under the heading “Liabilities under “Insurance and reinsurance contracts” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The modeling methods and techniques used to calculate the mathematical reserves for the insurance products are actuarial and financial methods and modeling techniques approved by the respective country’s insurance regulator or supervisor. The most important insurance entities are located in Spain and Mexico (which together account for approximately 87% of the insurance revenues), where the modeling methods and techniques are reviewed by the insurance regulator in Spain (General Directorate of Insurance) and Mexico (National Insurance and Bonding Commission), respectively. The modeling methods and techniques used to calculate the mathematical reserves for the insurance products are based on IFRS and primarily involve the valuation of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the technical interest rate for each policy. To ensure this technical interest rate, asset-liability management is carried out, acquiring a portfolio of securities that generate the cash flows needed to cover the payment commitments assumed with the customers.

The table below shows the key assumptions used in the calculation of the mathematical reserves for insurance products in Spain and Mexico, respectively as of June 30, 2017:

Ongoing legal proceedings and litigation

Different entities of the BBVA Group are frequently party to legal actions in a number of jurisdictions (including, among others, Spain, Mexico and the United State) arising in the ordinary course of business. According to the procedural status of these proceedings and the criteria of the legal counsel, BBVA considers that, except for the proceeding mentioned below, none of such actions is material, individually or as a whole, and with no significant impact on the operating results, liquidity or financial situation at a consolidated or individual level of the Bank. The Group´s Management believes that the provisions made in respect of such legal proceedings are adequate.

Regarding the consequences of the invalidity of the clauses of limitation of interest rates in mortgage loans with consumers (the so-called “cláusulas suelo”) the legal situation is as follows:

| ● |  | The Spanish Supreme Court, in a judgment dated May 9, 2013, rendered on a collective claim against BBVA among others, and that is definitive, resolved unanimously that those clauses should be deemed as invalid if they did not comply with certain requirements of material transparency set forth in the referred judgment. In addition, that judgment determined that there were no grounds for the refund of the amounts collected pursuant to those clauses before May 9, 2013.

| ● |  | As communicated to the market by means of Relevant Event dated June 12, 2013, BBVA ceased to apply, in execution of that judgment, as from May 9, 2013, the “cláusula suelo” in all mortgage loan agreements with consumers in which it had been included.

In an individual claim, the Provincial Court of Alicante raised a preliminary ruling to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), for the CJEU to determine if the time limitation for the refund of the amounts set forth by the Supreme Court complies with Directive 93/13/EEC. On July 13, the opinion of the Advocate-General of the CJEU was published and in its conclusions it stated that the European directive did not oppose to a Member State’s Supreme Court limiting, due to exceptional circumstances, the restorative effects of the invalidity to the date on which its first judgment in this regard was issued.

Last December 21, the CJEU published its sentence that decided the preliminary ruling raised by the Provincial Court of Alicante and other national judicial bodies, in the sense that the Supreme Court’s case law that limited in time the restorative effects related to the unfair declaration of a clause included in an agreement between a consumer and a professional is contrary to Article 6.1 of Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair terms in consumer contracts.

After the mentioned CJEU’s decision, BBVA made, once analyzed the portfolio of mortgage loans to consumers, in which the “cláusulas suelo” had applied, a provision of €577 million (with an impact on the attributed profit of approximately €404 million, as communicated to the market in the Relevant Event dated December 21, 2016), to cover future claims that could be filed. In the first half of 2017, no additional provisions were made regarding to this matter.

25. Post-employment and other employee benefit commitments

As stated in Note 2.2.12, the Group has assumed commitments with employees including short-term employee benefits, defined contribution and defined benefit plans (see Note 44.1), healthcare and other long-term employee benefits.

The Group sponsors defined-contribution plans for the majority of its active employees with the plans in Spain and Mexico being the most significant. Most defined benefit plans are closed to new employees and with liabilities relating largely to retired employees, the most significant being those in Spain, Mexico, the United States and Turkey. In Mexico, the Group provides medical benefits to a closed group of employees and their family members, both active service and in retirement.

25.1 Defined benefit plans

Defined benefit commitments relate mainly to employees who have already retired or taken early retirement, certain closed groups of active employees still accruing defined benefit pensions, and in-service death and disability benefits provided to most active employees. For the latter the Group pays the required premiums to fully insure the related liability. The change in these pension commitments during the year ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is presented below:

The balance under the heading “Provisions - Pensions and other post-employment defined benefit obligations” of the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 includes €345 million relating to post-employment benefit commitments to former members of the Board of Directors and the Bank’s Management (see Note 54).

The most significant commitments are those in Spain and Mexico and, to a lesser extent, in the United States and Turkey. The remaining commitments are located mostly in Portugal and South America. Unless otherwise required by local regulation, all defined benefit plans have been closed to new entrants, who instead are able to participate in the Group´s defined contribution plans. Both the costs and the present value of the commitments are determined by independent qualified actuaries using the “projected unit credit” method.

In order to guarantee the good governance of these plans, the Group has established specific benefits committees. These benefit committees include members from the different areas of the business to ensure that all decisions are made taking into consideration all of the associated impacts. Both the costs and the present value of the commitments are determined by independent qualified actuaries using the “projected unit credit” method.

##### Table of Contents

The following table sets out the key actuarial assumptions used in the valuation of these commitments as of December 31, 2016:

|  | 2016 |
Actuarial Assumptions |  | Spain |  |  | Mexico |  | USA |  | Turkey |
Discount rate |  |  | 1.50% |  |  | 9.95% |  | 4.04% |  |  | 11.50% |
Rate of salary increase |  |  | 1.50% |  |  | 4.75% |  | 3.00% |  |  | 9.30% |

Mortality tables |  |  | PERM/F 2000P |  |  | EMSSA97 (adjustment EMSSA09) |  | RP 2014 |  |  | CSO2001 |

The actuarial hypotheses used are the same as of December, 31 2016 except in Spain where the discount rates are 0.50% and 1.75% depending on the type of commitment.

In addition to the commitments to employees shown above, the Group has other less material long-term employee benefits. These include long-service awards, which consist of either an established monetary award or some vacation days granted to certain groups of employees when they complete a given number of years of service. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the actuarial liabilities for the outstanding awards amounted to €64 million, and €69 million, respectively. These commitments are recorded under the heading “Provisions - Other long-term employee benefits” of the accompanying consolidated balance sheet (see Note 24).

As described above, the Group maintains both pension and medical post-employment benefit commitments with their employees.

Post-employment commitments and similar obligations

These pension commitments relate mostly to pensions where the employees are already receiving payment, and which have been determined based on salary and years of service in accordance with the specific plan rules. For most plans pension payments are due on retirement, death and long term disability.

In addition, during the six months ended June 2017, Group entities in Spain offered certain employees the option to take early retirement (that is, earlier than the age stipulated in the collective labor agreement in force). This offer was accepted by 489 employees (259 employees during the six months ended June 30, 2016). These commitments include both the compensation and indemnities due as well as the contributions payable to external pension funds during the early retirement period. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the value of these commitments amounted to €2,434 million and €2,559, respectively.

In Spain, local regulation requires that pension and death benefit commitments must be funded, either through the assets held for a qualified pension plan or an insurance contract.

In the Spanish entities these commitments are covered by insurance contracts which meet the requirements of the accounting standard regarding the non-recoverability of contributions. However, a significant number of the insurance contracts are with BBVA Seguros, S.A.–consolidated subsidiary and related party – and consequently these policies cannot be considered plan assets under IAS 19. For this reason, the liabilities insured under these policies are fully recognized under the heading “Provisions – Pensions and other post-employment defined benefit obligations” of the accompanying consolidated balance sheet (see Note 24), while the related assets held by the insurance company are included within the Group´s consolidated assets (registered according to the classification of the corresponding financial instruments). As of June 30, 2017 the value of these separate assets was €2,775 million, representing direct rights of the insured employees held in the consolidated balance sheet, hence these benefits are effectively fully funded.

On the other hand, some pension commitments have been funded through insurance contracts with insurance companies not related to the Group, and can therefore be considered qualifying insurance policies and plan assets under IAS 19. In this case the accompanying consolidated balance sheet reflects the value of the obligations net of the fair value of the qualifying insurance policies. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the aforementioned insurance policies (€336 million and €358 million, respectively) exactly match the value of the corresponding obligations and therefore no amount for this item has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Pensions benefits are paid by the insurance companies with whom BBVA has insurance contracts and to whom all insurance premiums have been paid. The premiums are determined by the insurance companies using “cash flow matching” techniques to ensure that benefits can be met when due, guaranteeing both the actuarial and interest rate risk.

In Mexico, there is a defined benefit plan for employees hired prior to 2001. Other employees participate in a defined contribution plan. External funds/trusts have been constituted locally to meet benefit payments as required by local regulation.

In The United States there are mainly two defined benefit plans, both closed to new employees, who instead are able to join a defined contribution plan. External funds/trusts have been constituted locally to fund the plans, as required by local regulation.

In 2008, the Turkish government passed a law to unify the different existing pension systems under a single umbrella of Social Security. Such system provides for the transfer of the various prior funds established.

The financial sector is in this stage at present, maintaining these pension commitments managed by external pension funds (foundations) established for that purpose.

The foundation that maintains the assets and liabilities relating to employees of Garanti in Turkey, as per the local regulatory requirements, has registered an obligation pending future social security transfer.

Furthermore, Garanti has set up a defined benefit pension plan for employees, additional to the social security benefits, reflected in the consolidated balance sheet.

In Mexico there is a medical benefit plan for employees hired prior to 2007. New employees from 2007 are covered by medical insurance policy. An external trust has been constituted locally to fund the plan, in accordance with local legislation and Group policy.

In Turkey employees are currently provided with medical benefits through a foundation in collaboration with the social security system, although local legislation prescribes the future unification of this and similar systems into the general social security system itself.

The valuation of these benefits and their accounting treatment follow the same methodology as that employed in the valuation of pension commitments.

Plan assets

The majority of the Group´s defined benefit plans are funded by plan assets held in external funds/trusts legally separate from the Group sponsoring entity. However, in accordance with local regulation, some commitments are not externally funded and covered through internally held provisions, principally those relating to early retirements in Spain.

F-142

##### Table of Contents

Plan assets are those assets which will be used to directly settle the assumed commitments and which meet the following conditions: they are not part of the Group sponsoring entity´s assets, they are available only to pay post-employment benefits and they cannot be returned to the Group sponsoring entity.

To manage the assets associated with defined benefit plans, BBVA Group has established investment policies designed according to criteria of prudence and minimizing the financial risks associated with plan assets.

The investment policy consists of investing in a low risk and diversified portfolio of assets with maturities consistent with the term of the benefit obligation and which, together with contributions made to the plan, will be sufficient to meet benefit payments when due, thus mitigating the plans‘ risks.

In those countries where plan assets are held in pension funds or trusts, the investment policy is developed consistently with local regulation. When selecting specific assets, current market conditions, the risk profile of the assets and their future market outlook are all taken into consideration. In all the cases, the selection of assets takes into consideration the term of the benefit obligations as well as short-term liquidity requirements.

The risks associated with these commitments are those which give rise to a deficit in the plan assets. A deficit could arise from factors such as a fall in the market value of plan assets, an increase in long-term interest rates leading to a decrease in the fair value of fixed income securities, or a deterioration of the economy resulting in more write-downs and credit rating downgrades.

The table below shows the allocation of plan assets of the main companies of the BBVA Group as of June 30, 2017:

The AGM held on March 11, 2016 adopted, under agenda item three, four resolutions on capital increase to be charged to voluntary reserves, to once again implement the shareholder remuneration system called the “Dividend Option” (see Note 4), conferring, pursuant to article 297.1 a) of the Spanish Corporate Enterprises Act, on the Board of Directors the authority to set the date on which the resolutions to increase capital will carried out, within one year from the date of approval of the AGM resolution, including the power to refrain from executing any of the capital increases, when deemed advisable.

By virtue of the referred AGM resolution, on March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors of BBVA approved the execution of the first of the capital increases to be charged to voluntary reserves, in accordance with the terms and conditions approved by the AGM.

Likewise, the AGM resolved to confer to the Board of Directors the authority to exclude pre-emptive subscription rights, although this power was limited to ensure the nominal amount of the capital increases resolved or effectively carried out to cover the conversion of mandatory convertible issues in issue of this authority (without prejudice to anti-dilution adjustments), with exclusion of pre-emptive subscription rights and of those likewise resolved or carried out with exclusion of pre-emptive subscription rights in use of the authority to increase the share capital conferred by the AGM held on March 17, 2017, under agenda item four, do not exceed the maximum nominal amount, overall, of 20% of the share capital of BBVA at the time of the authorization, not being this limit applicable to the contingent convertible issues.

In use of the authority mentioned above, BBVA carried out, on May 24, 2017 the fifth issuance of perpetual contingent convertible securities, convertible into newly issued ordinary shares of BBVA (additional tier 1 instrument), with exclusion of pre-emptive subscription rights of shareholders, for a total nominal amount of €500 million.

The qualification of this issuance as additional tier 1 capital has been requested (see Note 22.3).

Likewise, BBVA has carried out, in use of the previous authority (in effect until March 16, 2017) regarding the issue of convertible securities conferred by the AGM, four additional issuances of perpetual contingent convertible securities, convertible into newly issued ordinary shares of BBVA (additional tier 1 instrument), with exclusion of pre-emptive subscription rights of shareholders (in April 2013 for an amount of $1.5 billion, in February 2014 and February 2015 for an amount of €1.5 billion each one, and in April 2016 for an amount of €1 billion).

28.1 Legal reserve

Under the amended Corporations Act, 10% of any profit made each year must be transferred to the legal reserve. The transfer must be made until the legal reserve reaches 20% of the common stock.

The legal reserve can be used to increase the common stock provided that the remaining reserve balance does not fall below 10% of the increased capital. While it does not exceed 20% of the common stock, it can only be allocated to offset losses exclusively in the case that there are not sufficient reserves available.

28.2 Restricted reserves

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank’s restricted reserves are as follows:

|  |  |  |  | Millions of Euros

Restricted reserve for retired capital |  |  |  |  |  | 88 |  | 88

Restricted reserve for redenomination of capital in euros |  |  |  |  |  | 2 |  | 2

The main variation is related to the conversion to euros of the interim financial statements balances from consolidated entities whose functional currency is not euros. In this regard, the increase in item “Foreign currency translation” in the above table in the first semester of 2017 is mainly related to the depreciation of the Mexican peso and the Turkish lira, partially offset by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the euro (see Note 2.2.16).

32. Capital base and capital management

Capital base

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, equity is calculated in accordance with current regulation on minimum capital base requirements for Spanish credit institutions –both as individual entities and as consolidated group– and how to calculate them, as well as the various internal capital adequacy assessment processes they should have in place and the information they should disclose to the market.

The minimum capital base requirements established by the current regulation are calculated according to the Group’s exposure to credit and dilution risk, counterparty and liquidity risk relating to the trading portfolio, exchange-rate risk and operational risk. In addition, the Group must fulfill the risk concentration limits established in said regulation and the internal corporate governance obligations.

As a result of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) carried out by the European Central Bank (ECB), BBVA has received a communication from the ECB requiring BBVA to maintain, on a consolidated basis, effective from January 1, 2017, a phased-in total capital of 11.125% and on an individual bases, a phased-in total capital of 10.75%.

This total capital requirement of 11.125% includes: i) the minimum CET1 capital ratio required under Pillar 1 (4.5%); ii) Pillar 1 Additional Tier 1 capital requirements (1.5%); iii) Pillar 1 Tier 2 capital requirements (2%); iv) Pillar 2 CET1 capital requirement (1.5%); v) the capital conservation buffer (CCB) (1.25% CET1 in a phased-in term and 2.5% in a fully loaded term) and vi) the Other Systemic Important Institution buffer (OSII) (0.375% CET1 in a phased-in term and 0.75% in a fully loaded term).

Since BBVA has been excluded from the list of global systemically important financial institutions in 2016 (which is updated every year by the Financial Stability Board (FSB)), as of January 1, 2017, the G-SIB buffer will not apply to BBVA in 2017, (notwithstanding the possibility that the FSB or the supervisor may include BBVA on it in the future).

However, the supervisor has informed BBVA that it is included on the list of other systemically important financial institutions, and a D-SIB buffer of 0.75% of the fully-loaded ratio applies at the consolidated level. It will be implemented gradually from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2019.

The CET1 requirement on phased-in terms stands at 7.625% on a consolidated basis and 7.25% on an individual basis.

The changes in the Tier 1 Capital Ratio (CET1) in the previous table are mainly explained by the generation of results, net of dividend and remuneration payments, the reduction of risk-weighted assets, mainly due to the depreciation of currencies (especially significant for the Turkish lira and the US dollar) and the negative impact on minority stakes and deductions for the increase of the phase-out schedule of 80% in 2017, compared to 60% in 2016.

Additionally, the acquisition of an additional 9.95% in Garanti Bank and the sale of a 1.7% stake in CNCB with an impact of approximately -13 basis points of CET.

During the first half of the year, the Group has carried out an issue, classified as additional capital instruments (TIER I), of preference shares that may eventually be converted into ordinary shares of BBVA amounting to 500 million euros A positive impact of 13 basis points, as well as several issues of subordinated debt computable as TIER II instruments with an impact of about 50 basis points as of June 30, 2017.

The total ratio grows to 15.50%, taking into account the effects discussed above.

Capital management

Capital management in the BBVA Group has a twofold aim:

| ● |  | Maintain a level of capitalization according to the business objectives in all countries in which it operates and, simultaneously.

| ● |  | Maximize the return on shareholders’ funds through the efficient allocation of capital to the different units, a good management of the balance sheet and appropriate use of the various instruments forming the basis of the Group’s equity: shares, preferred securities and subordinate debt.

This capital management is carried out determining the capital base and the solvency ratios established by the prudential and minimum capital requirements also have to be met for the entities subject to prudential supervision in each country.

The current regulation allows each entity to apply its own internal ratings-based (IRB) approach to risk assessment and capital management, subject to Bank of Spain approval. The BBVA Group carries out an integrated management of these

44.1.1 Share-based employee remuneration

These amounts have been recognized with a corresponding entry under the heading “Shareholders’ funds - Other equity instruments” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, net of tax effect.

The characteristics of the Group’s remuneration plans based on equity instruments are described below.

System of Variable Remuneration in Shares

In BBVA, the annual variable remuneration applying generally to all employees consists of one incentive, to be paid in cash, awarded once a year and linked to the achievement of predetermined objectives and to a sound risk management

F-162

##### Table of Contents

based on the design of incentives that are aligned with the company’s long-term interests, taking into account current and future risks (hereinafter, the “Annual Variable Remuneration”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the remuneration policy for BBVA Group, in force until 2016, had a specific settlement and payment system for the Annual Variable Remuneration applicable to those employees and senior managers, including the executive directors and members of BBVA Senior Management, whose professional activities may have a significant impact on the Group’s risk profile or perform control functions (hereinafter, the “Identified Staff”), which included, among others, the payment in shares of part of their Annual Variable Remuneration.

This remuneration policy was approved, with respect to BBVA directors, by the Annual General Shareholders’ Meeting held on March 13, 2015.

The specific rules of the settlement and payment system of 2016 Annual Variable Remuneration for executive directors and members of the Senior Management are described in Note 54, while the rules listed below were applicable to the rest of the Identified Staff:

● |  | The Annual Variable Remuneration of Identified Staff members would be paid in equal parts in cash and in BBVA shares.

● |  | The payment of 40% of the Annual Variable Remuneration, both in cash and in shares, would be deferred in its entirety for a three–year period. Its accrual and payment would be subject to compliance with certain multi-year performance indicators related to the share performance and the Group’s fundamental control and risk management metrics regarding solvency, liquidity and profitability, which would be calculated over the deferral period (hereinafter “Multi-year Performance Indicators”). These Multi-year Performance Indicators could lead to a reduction in the amounts deferred, and might even bring it down to zero, but they would not be used under any circumstances to increase the aforementioned deferred remuneration.

● |  | All the shares delivered pursuant to the rules indicated above would be withheld for a period of one year from the date of delivery. This withholding would be applied over the net amount of the shares, after discounting the necessary part to pay any tax accruing on the shares received.

● |  | A prohibition was also established against hedging, both regarding vested shares that were withheld and shares whose delivery was pending.

● |  | Moreover, circumstances were established under which the payment of the deferred Annual Variable Remuneration could be limited or impeded (“malus” clauses), as well as the adjustment to update these deferred parts.

● |  | Finally, the variable component of the remuneration corresponding to a financial year for the Identified Staff would be limited to a maximum amount of 100% of the fixed component of total remuneration, unless the General Meeting resolved to increase such limit which, in any event, could not exceed 200% of the fixed component of total remuneration.

In this regard, the Annual General Meetings held on 2014 and 2015 resolved, in line with applicable legislation, the application of the maximum level of variable remuneration up to 200% of the fixed remuneration for a specific group of employees whose professional activities have a material impact on the Group’s risk profile or are engaged in control functions, and to enlarge this group, whose variable remuneration will be subject to the maximum threshold of 200% of the fixed component of their total remuneration, respectively. This is entirely consistent with the Recommendations Report issued by the BBVA’s Board of Directors on February 3, 2015.

According to the settlement and payment scheme mentioned above, during the first semester of 2017, members of the Identified Staff received 6,481,409 shares corresponding to the initial payment of 2016 Annual Variable Remuneration to be delivered in shares.

Additionally, the remuneration policy prevailing until 2014 provided for a specific settlement and payment scheme for the variable remuneration of the Identified Staff that established a three-year deferral period for the Annual Variable Remuneration, being the deferred amount paid in thirds over this period.

According to this prior scheme, during the first semester of 2017, the members of the Identified Staff received the shares corresponding to the deferred parts of the Annual Variable Remuneration in shares from previous years, and their corresponding adjustments in cash, were delivered to the beneficiary members of the Identified Staff, resulting in (i) a total amount of 943,955 shares corresponding to the second deferred third of the 2014 Annual Variable Remuneration and €697,583 as adjustments for updates of the shares granted; and (ii) a total amount of 437,069 shares corresponding to the last deferred third of the 2013 Annual Variable Remuneration and €501,318 in adjustments for updates.

Additionally, in line with specific regulation applicable in Portugal and Brazil, BBVA identifies those employees that, according to local regulators, should be subject to a specific settlement and payment scheme of the Annual Variable Remuneration.

According to this regulation, during the first semester 2017 a number of 49,798 shares corresponding to the initial payment of 2016 Annual Variable Remuneration were delivered to these beneficiaries.

Additionally, during the first semester 2017 the shares corresponding to the deferred parts of the Annual Variable Remuneration and their corresponding adjustments in cash, were delivered to these beneficiaries, giving rise in 2017, of a total of 10,485 shares corresponding to the first deferred third of the 2015 Annual Variable Remuneration, and €3,869 as adjustments for updates of the shares granted; a total of 7,201 shares corresponding to the second third of the 2014 Annual Variable Remuneration, and €5,322 as adjustments for updates of the shares granted; and a total of 5,757 shares corresponding to the final third of the 2013 Annual Variable Remuneration, and €6,603 as adjustments for updates of the shares granted.

Additionally, BBVA Compass’ remuneration structure included a long-term incentive programme in shares for employees in certain key positions. This plan is applicable for a three-year term and consisted in the delivery of a number of shares to its beneficiaries, subject to their permanence in the company for a period of three years.

During the first semester of 2017, a number of 331,111 shares corresponding to this programme were delivered.

Remuneration policy applicable from 2017 onwards

The Bank has modified its remuneration policy applicable to the Identified Staff and to BBVA Directors for the years 2017, 2018 and 2019, aimed at improving alignment with new regulatory requirements, best market practices and BBVA’s organization and internal strategy. This policy was approved, with respect to Identified Staff, by the Board of Directors held in 9 February 2017, and, with respect to BBVA directors, by the General Shareholders’ Meeting held on March 17, 2017.

The new remuneration policy includes a specific settlement and payment system of the Annual Variable Remuneration applicable to the Identified Staff, including directors and senior management, under the following rules, among others:

● |  | A significant percentage of variable remuneration – 60% in the case of executive directors, Senior Management and those Identified Staff members with particularly high variable remuneration, and 40% for the rest of the Identified Staff– shall be deferred over a five- year period, in the case of executive directors and Senior Management, and over a three-year period, for the remaining Identified Staff.

● |  | 50% of the variable remuneration of each year (including both upfront and deferred portions), shall be established in BBVA shares, albeit a larger proportion (60%) in shares shall be deferred in the case of executive directors and Senior Management.

● |  | The variable remuneration will be subject to ex ante adjustments, so that it will not be accrued, or will be accrued in a reduced amount, should a certain level of profit or capital ratio not be obtained. Likewise, the Annual Variable Remuneration will be reduced upon performance assessment in the event of negative evolution of the Bank’s results or other parameters such as the level of achievement of budgeted targets.

● |  | The deferred component of the variable remuneration (in shares and in cash) may be reduced in its entirety, yet not increased, based on the result of multi-year performance indicators aligned with the Bank’s fundamental risk management and control metrics, related to the solvency, capital, liquidity, funding or profitability, or to the share performance and recurring results of the Group.

● |  | During the entire deferral period (5 or 3 years, as applicable) and retention period, variable remuneration shall be subject to malus and clawback arrangements, both linked to a downturn in financial performance of the Bank, specific unit or area, or individual, under certain circumstances.

● |  | All shares shall be withheld for a period of one year after delivery, except for those shares required to honor the payment of taxes.

● |  | No personal hedging strategies or insurance may be used in connection with remuneration and responsibility that may undermine the effects of alignment with sound risk management

● |  | The deferred amounts in cash subject to multi-year performance indicators that are finally paid shall be subject to updating, in the terms determined by the Bank’s Board of Directors, upon proposal of the Remunerations Committee, whereas deferred amounts in shares shall not be updated.

● |  | Finally, the variable component of the remuneration of the Identified Staff members shall be limited to a maximum amount of 100% of the fixed component of total remuneration, unless the General Meeting resolves to increase this percentage up to 200%.

In this regard, the General Meeting held on March, 17 2017 resolved to increase the maximum level of variable remuneration to 200% of the fixed component for a number of risk takers (replacing the previous ones), in the terms indicated in the Report of Recommendations issued for this purpose by the Board of Directors dated 9 February 2017.

In accordance with the new remuneration policy applicable to the Identified Staff, malus and clawback arrangements will be applicable to the Annual Variable Remuneration awarded as of the year 2016, inclusive, for each member of the Identified Staff.

The first disbursement in shares under this new policy will be the upfront payment of the 2017 Annual Variable Remuneration to be paid in shares, which will take place in the first half of 2018.

| ● |  | Remuneration system in shares with deferred delivery for non-executive directors

BBVA has a remuneration system in shares with deferred delivery for its non-executive directors, which was approved by the General Meeting held on March 18, 2006 and extended by resolutions of the General Meeting held on March 11, 2011 and on March 11, 2016, for a further five-year period in each case.

This system is based on the annual allocation to non-executive directors of a number of “theoretical shares”, equivalent to 20% of the total remuneration in cash received by each director in the previous year, according to the average closing prices of the BBVA share during the sixty trading sessions prior to the Annual General Meeting approving the corresponding financial statements for each year.

These shares will be delivered to each beneficiary, where applicable, on the date they cease in their position as directors for any reason other than serious breach of their duties.

The number of “theoretical shares” allocated in the first semester of 2017 to each non-executive director beneficiary of the remuneration system in shares with deferred delivery, corresponding to 20% of the total remuneration received in cash by said directors in 2016, is as follows:

|  | Theoretical shares allocated in 2017 |  |  | Theoretical shares accumulated to 30th June 2017 |
Tomás Alfaro Drake |  |  | 10,630 |  |  |  | 73,082 |
José Miguel Andrés Torrecillas |  |  | 14,002 |  |  |  | 23,810 |
José Antonio Fernández Rivero |  |  | 11,007 |  |  |  | 102,053 |

● |  | Pension commitments

The Bank has undertaken pension commitments in favor of the Chief Executive Officer and the executive director Head of GERPA, in accordance with the Bylaws, the Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors and their respective contracts entered into with the Bank, which include a pension scheme to cover retirement, disability and death.

With respect to the Chief Executive Officer, the Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, approved by the 2017 General Meeting, provides for a new benefits framework which entails a change of the former defined-benefit scheme to a defined-contribution scheme, according to which the Chief Executive Officer is entitled, provided he does not leave his position as Chief Executive Officer due to serious breach of duties, to a retirement benefit when he reaches the legal age established for these purposes, which amount shall result from the funds accumulated by the Bank until December 2016 for pension commitments under his previous scheme and the sum of the annual contributions made by the Bank as of January 1, 2017, to cover said benefit under the new pension scheme, in addition to the corresponding accumulated yields.

The amount determined as annual fixed contribution to cover the retirement benefit under the new defined-contribution scheme for the Chief Executive Officer amounts to €1,642 thousand, amount which shall be updated in the same proportion as the annual fixed remuneration for the Chief Executive Officer in the terms established in the Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, approved by the 2017 General Meeting.

In the event the contractual relationship terminates before he reaches the retirement age, for reason other than serious breach of duties, the retirement benefits corresponding to the Chief Executive Officer when he reaches the retirement age shall be calculated solely on the basis of the contributions made by the Bank up to the termination date in addition to the corresponding accumulated yields, with no additional contributions to be made by the Bank.

Pursuant to the new Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, 15% of the annual contributions made from the year 2016 onwards to cover pension commitments shall be based on variable components and be considered “discretionary pension benefits”, subject to share delivery, retention and clawback conditions as determined in applicable regulations, as well as to those conditions of variable remuneration applicable pursuant to said Policy.

In accordance with the new Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, during the first semester of 2017, €804 thousand has been recorded to cover pension commitments undertaken with the Chief Executive Officer, amount which covers the contributions for retirement, disability and death, with the total accumulated fund to cover retirement commitments standing at €16,605 thousand.

As regards the executive director Head of GERPA, the pension scheme established in the Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, approved by the 2017 General Meeting, provides for a defined-contribution regime amounting to 30% of his annual fixed remuneration each financial year as of January 1, 2017.

Pursuant to the foregoing, the executive director Head of GERPA shall be entitled, when he reaches the retirement age, to the benefits arising from the contributions made by the Bank to cover such pension commitments, plus the corresponding accumulated yields up to that date, provided he does not leave his position due to serious breach of his duties. In the event of voluntary termination of contractual relationship before he reaches the retirement age, benefits shall be limited to 50% of the contributions made by the Bank to that date, plus the corresponding accumulated yields, with the Bank’s contributions ceasing upon leave of directorship.

As in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, and in application of the Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, as approved by the 2017 General Meeting, 15% of the annual contributions made from the year 2016 onwards to cover pension commitments shall be based on variable components and be considered “discretionary pension benefits”, subject to share delivery, retention and clawback conditions as determined in applicable regulations, as well as to those conditions of variable remuneration applicable pursuant to said Policy.

Therefore, in accordance with the new Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, during the first semester of 2017, €178 thousand has been recorded to cover pension commitments undertaken with the executive director Head of GERPA, amount which covers the contributions for retirement, disability and death, with the total accumulated fund to cover retirement commitments standing at €726 thousand.

There are no other pension obligations undertaken in favor of other executive directors.

During the first semester of 2017, €3,001 thousand has been recorded to cover pension commitments undertaken with members of the Senior Management, excluding executive directors, amount which covers the contributions for retirement, disability and death, with the total accumulated fund to cover retirement commitments standing at €53,526 thousand.

Likewise, in accordance with the Remuneration Policy for BBVA’s Identified Staff, 15% of the annual contributions made from the year 2016 onwards to cover pension commitments for the members of the Senior Management shall be based on variable components and be considered “discretionary pension benefits”, subject to share delivery, retention and clawback conditions as determined in applicable regulations, as well as to those conditions of variable remuneration applicable pursuant to said Policy.

● |  | Extinction of contractual relationship

In accordance with the Remuneration Policy for BBVA Directors, approved by the 2017 General Meeting, the Bank has no commitments to pay severance indemnity to executive directors.

The new contractual framework for the Chief Executive Officer and the executive director Head of GERPA includes a post-contractual non-compete agreement for a period of two years after they cease as BBVA executive directors, in accordance to which they shall receive remuneration in an amount equivalent to two times their annual fixed remuneration, which shall be paid periodically through monthly payments over course of the two years of non-competition, provided that leave of directorship is not due to death, retirement, disability or serious breach of duties.

55. Other information

55.1 Environmental impact

Given the activities BBVA Group entities engage in, the Group has no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could have a significant effect on its consolidated equity, financial situation and profits. Consequently, as of June 30, 2017, there is no item in the Group’s accompanying consolidated financial statements that requires disclosure in an environmental information report pursuant to Ministry of Economy Order JUS/206/2009 dated January 28, and consequently no specific disclosure of information on environmental matters is included in these financial statements.

APPENDIX VIII Information on data derived from the special accounting registry

a) | Mortgage market policies and procedures

Information required pursuant to Circular 5/2011 of the Bank of Spain is indicated as follows.

The Bank has express policies and procedures in place regarding its activities in the mortgage market, which provide for full compliance with applicable regulations.

The mortgage origination policy is based in principles focused on assessing the adequate ratio between the amount of the loan, and the payments, and the income of the applicant. Applicants must in all cases prove sufficient repayment ability (present and future) to meet their repayment obligations, for both the mortgage debt and for other debts detected in the financial system. Therefore, the applicant’s repayment ability is a key aspect within the credit decision-making tools and retail risk acceptance manuals, and has a high weighting in the final decision.

During the mortgage risk transaction analysis process, documentation supporting the applicant’s income (payroll, etc.) is required, and the applicant’s position in the financial system is checked through automated database queries (internal and external). This information is used for calculation purposes in order to determine the level of indebtedness/compliance with the remainder of the system. This documentation is kept in the transaction’s file.

In addition, the mortgage origination policy assesses the adequate ratio between the amount of the loan and the appraisal value of the mortgaged asset. The policy also establishes that the property to be mortgaged be appraised by an independent appraisal company as established by Circular 3/2010 and Circular 4/2016. BBVA selects those companies whose reputation, standing in the market and independence ensure that their appraisals adapt to the market reality in each region. Each appraisal is reviewed and checked before the loan is granted and, in those cases where the loan is finally granted, it is kept in the transaction’s file.

As for issues related to the mortgage market, the Finance Division annually defines the wholesale finance issue strategy, and more specifically mortgage bond issues, such as mortgage covered bonds or mortgage securitization. The Assets and Liabilities Committee (“ALCO”) tracks the budget monthly. The volume and type of assets in these transactions is determined in accordance with the wholesale finance plan, the trend of the Bank’s “Loans and receivables” outstanding balances and market conditions.

The Board of the Bank authorizes each of the issues of Mortgage Transfer Certificate and/or Mortgage Participation issued by BBVA to securitize loans and mortgage loans, Likewise, the Board of Directors authorize, under the power delegated by the Annual General Meeting held on March 13, 2015 under item three of the agenda and its own powers, the establishment of a Base Prospectus for the issue of fixed-income securities through which the mortgage-covered bonds are implemented.

As established in article 24 of Royal Decree 716/2009, the volume of outstanding mortgage-covered bonds issued by a bank may not exceed 80% of a calculation base determined by adding the outstanding principal of all the loans and mortgage loans in the bank’s portfolio that are eligible and are not covered by the issue of Mortgage Bonds, Mortgage Participations or Mortgage Transfer Certificates. For these purposes, in accordance with the aforementioned Royal Decree 716/2009, in order to be eligible, loans and mortgage loans must, on a general basis: (i) be secured by a first mortgage on the freehold; (ii) the loan’s amount may not exceed 80% of the appraisal value for home mortgages, and 60% for other mortgage lending; (iii) be established on assets exclusively and wholly owned by the mortgagor; (iv) have been appraised by an independent appraisal company unrelated to the Group and authorized by the Bank of Spain; and (v) the mortgaged property must be covered at least by a current damage insurance policy.

The Bank has set up a series of controls for mortgage covered bonds, which regularly control the total volume of issued mortgage covered bonds issued and the remaining eligible collateral, to avoid exceeding the maximum limit set by Royal Decree 716/2009, and outlined in the preceding paragraph. In the case of securitizations, the preliminary portfolio of loans and mortgage loans to be securitized is checked according to an agreed procedures engagement, by the Bank’s external auditor as required by the Spanish Securities and Exchange Commission. There is also a series of filters through which some mortgage loans and credits are excluded in accordance with legal, commercial and risk concentration criteria.

##### Table of Contents

In addition to the restructuring and refinancing transactions mentioned in this section, loans that were not considered impaired or renegotiated have been modified based on the criteria set out in paragraph 59 (c) of IAS 39. These loans have not been classified as renegotiated or impaired, since they were modified for commercial or competitive reasons (for instance, to improve our relationship with the client) rather than for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial situation.

The table below provides a roll forward of refinanced assets during the first half of 2017:

Glossary

Additional Tier 1 Capital |  | Includes: Preferred stock and convertible perpetual securities and deductions.
Adjusted acquisition cost |  | The acquisition cost of the securities less accumulated amortizations, plus interest accrued, but not net of any other valuation adjustments.
Amortized cost |  | The amortized cost of a financial asset is the amount at which it was measured at initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus, as warranted, the cumulative amount taken to profit or loss using the effective interest rate method of any difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount, and minus any reduction for impairment or change in measured value.
Associates |  | Companies in which the Group has a significant influence, without having control. Significant influence is deemed to exist when the Group owns 20% or more of the voting rights of an investee directly or indirectly.
Available-for-sale financial assets |  | Available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets are debt securities that are not classified as held-to-maturity investments or as financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and equity instruments that are not subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities and have not been designated as at FVTPL.
Basic earnings per share |  | Calculated by dividing “Profit attributable to Parent Company” corresponding to ordinary shareholders of the entity by the weighted average number of shares outstanding throughout the year (i.e., excluding the average number of treasury shares held over the year).
Basis risk |  | Risk arising from hedging exposure to one interest rate with exposure to a rate that reprices under slightly different conditions.
Business combination |  | A business combination is a transaction, or any other event, through which a single entity obtains the control of one or more businesses.
Cash flow hedges |  | Those that hedge the exposure to variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction and could affect profit or loss.
Commissions |  | Income and expenses relating to commissions and similar fees are recognized in the consolidated income statement using criteria that vary according to their nature. The most significant income and expense items in this connection are: · Fees and commissions relating linked to financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, which are recognized when collected. · Fees and commissions arising from transactions or services that are provided over a period of time, which are recognized over the life of these transactions or services. · Fees and commissions generated by a single act are accrued upon execution of that act.

Consolidated statements of cash flows |  | The indirect method has been used for the preparation of the consolidated statement of cash flows. This method starts from the entity’s consolidated profit and adjusts its amount for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expense associated with cash flows classified as investment or finance. As well as cash, short-term, highly liquid investments subject to a low risk of changes in value, such as cash and deposits in central banks, are classified as cash and equivalents. When preparing these financial statements the following definitions have been used: · Cash flows: Inflows and outflows of cash and equivalents. · Operating activities: The typical activities of credit institutions and other activities that cannot be classified as investment or financing activities. · Investing activities: The acquisition, sale or other disposal of long-term assets and other investments not included in cash and cash equivalents or in operating activities. · Financing activities: Activities that result in changes in the size and composition of the Group’s equity and of liabilities that do not form part of operating activities.
Consolidated statements of changes in equity |  | The consolidated statements of changes in equity reflect all the movements generated in each year in each of the headings of the consolidated equity, including those from transactions undertaken with shareholders when they act as such, and those due to changes in accounting criteria or corrections of errors, if any. The applicable regulations establish that certain categories of assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair value with a charge to equity. These charges, known as “Valuation adjustments” (see Note 31), are included in the Group’s total consolidated equity net of tax effect, which has been recognized as deferred tax assets or liabilities, as appropriate.
Consolidated statements of recognized income and expenses |  | The consolidated statements of recognized income and expenses reflect the income and expenses generated each year. Such statement distinguishes between income and expenses recognized in the consolidated income statements and “Other recognized income (expenses)” recognized directly in consolidated equity. “Other recognized income (expenses)” include the changes that have taken place in the year in the “Valuation adjustments” broken down by item. The sum of the changes to the heading “Other comprehensive income “ of the consolidated total equity and the consolidated profit for the year comprise the “Total recognized income/expenses of the year”.
Consolidation method |  | Method used for the consolidation of the accounts of the Group’s subsidiaries. The assets and liabilities of the Group entities are incorporated line-by-line on the consolidate balance sheets, after conciliation and the elimination in full of intragroup balances, including amounts payable and receivable. Group entity income statement income and expense headings are similarly combined line by line into the consolidated income statement, having made the following consolidation eliminations: a) income and expenses in respect of intragroup transactions are eliminated in full. b) profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions are similarly eliminated. The carrying amount of the parent’s investment and the parent’s share of equity in each subsidiary are eliminated.
Contingencies |  | Current obligations of the entity arising as a result of past events whose existence depends on the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events independent of the will of the entity.

Option risk |  | Risks arising from options, including embedded options.
Other financial assets/liabilities at fair value through profit or loss |  | Instruments designated by the entity from the inception at fair value with changes in profit or loss. An entity may only designate a financial instrument at fair value through profit or loss, if doing so more relevant information is obtained, because: a) It eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency (sometimes called “accounting mismatch”) that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognizing the gains and losses on them on different bases. It might be acceptable to designate only some of a number of similar financial assets or financial liabilities if doing so a significant reduction (and possibly a greater reduction than other allowable designations) in the inconsistency is achieved. b) The performance of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities is managed and evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to the entity´s key management personnel. These are financial assets managed jointly with “Liabilities under insurance contracts” measured at fair value, in combination with derivatives written with a view to significantly mitigating exposure to changes in these contracts’ fair value, or in combination with financial liabilities and derivatives designed to significantly reduce global exposure to interest rate risk.

Renegotiated Operation |  | An operation whose financial conditions are modified when the borrower is not experiencing financial difficulties, and is not expected to experience them in the future, i.e. the conditions are modified for reasons other than restructuring.
Repricing risk |  | Risks related to the timing mismatch in the maturity and repricing of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet short and long-term positions.
Restructured Operation |  | An operation whose financial conditions are modified for economic or legal reasons related to the holder’s (or holders’) current or foreseeable financial difficulties, in order to enable payment of the loan (principal and interest), because the holder is unable, or is expected to be unable, to meet those conditions in a timely and appropriate manner, even if such modification is provided for in the contract. In any event, the following are considered restructured operations: operations in which a haircut is made or assets are received in order to reduce the loan, or in which their conditions are modified in order to extend their maturity, change the amortization table in order to reduce the amount of the installments in the short term or reduce their frequency, or to establish or extend the grace period for the principal, the interest or both; except when it can be proved that the conditions are modified for reasons other than the financial difficulties of the holders and, are similar to those applied on the market on the modification date for operations granted to customers with a similar risk profile.

Significant influence |  | Is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control of those policies. If an entity holds, directly or indirectly (i.e. through subsidiaries), 20 per cent or more of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the entity has significant influence, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. Conversely, if the entity holds, directly or indirectly (i.e. through subsidiaries), less than 20 per cent of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the entity does not have significant influence, unless such influence can be clearly demonstrated. A substantial or majority ownership by another investor does not necessarily preclude an entity from having significant influence. The existence of significant influence by an entity is usually evidenced in one or more of the following ways: a) representation on the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee; b) participation in policy-making processes, including participation in decisions about dividends or other distributions; c) material transactions between the entity and its investee; d) interchange of managerial personnel; or e) provision of essential technical information.

Control is presumed to exist when the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than one half of an entity’s voting power, unless, exceptionally, it can be clearly demonstrated that ownership of more than one half of an entity’s voting rights does not constitute control of it. Control also exists when the parent owns half or less of the voting power of an entity when there is: a) an agreement that gives the parent the right to control the votes of other shareholders; b) power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity under a statute or an agreement; power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors or equivalent governing body and control of the entity is by that board or body; c) power to cast the majority of votes at meetings of the board of directors or equivalent governing body and control of the entity is by that board or body.

This risk metric estimates the maximum loss that may occur in a portfolio’s market positions for a particular time horizon and given confidence level VaR figures are estimated following two methodologies: a) VaR without smoothing, which awards equal weight to the daily information for the immediately preceding last two years. This is currently the official methodology for measuring market risks vis-à-vis limits compliance of the risk. b) VaR with smoothing, which weights more recent market information more heavily. This is a metric which supplements the previous one. VaR with smoothing adapts itself more swiftly to the changes in financial market conditions, whereas VaR without smoothing is, in general, a more stable metric that will tend to exceed VaR with smoothing when the markets show less volatile trends, while it will tend to be lower when they present upturns in uncertainty.
