As of December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, within “Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss”, liabilities linked to insurance products where the policyholder bears the risk ("Unit-Link") are recorded. Since the liabilities linked to insurance produ cts 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. In addition, the assets and liabilities are included in these headings to reduce inconsistencies (asymmetries) in the valuation of those operations and those used to manage their risk.
