The primary risk factors associated with the derivative instruments undertaken relate to exchange rates, interest rates, and equity income. In managing these and other market risk factors, the Bank employs practices that encompass the measurement and monitoring of the utilization of limits previously established by internal committees, the portfolios' value at risk, sensitivities to interest rate fluctuations, foreign exchange exposure, liquidity gaps, among other practices that enable the control and monitoring of risks, which could potentially impact Banco Santander's positions across the various markets in which it operates. Based on this management model, the Bank has been able to optimize the risk-reward ratio, even amidst conditions of significant volatility, through the use of operations involving derivative instruments. The fair value of derivative financial instruments is determined using market price quotations when available. The fair value of swaps is calculated through discounted cash flow modeling techniques, reflecting appropriate risk factors. The fair value of forward and futures contracts is also determined based on market price quotations for exchange-traded derivatives or employing methodologies similar to those used for swaps. The fair value of options is calculated using mathematical models, such as the Black-Scholes model, implied volatilities, and the fair value of the corresponding asset. Current market prices are utilized to determine volatilities. For derivatives that do not have prices directly disclosed by exchanges, the fair value is ascertained through pricing models that leverage market information, inferred from the disclosed prices of more liquid assets. This process involves extracting interest rate curves and market volatilities from these prices, which are then used as input data for the models. a) Derivative Financial Instruments a.1) Derivative Financial Instruments Recorded in the Off-Balance Sheet and Equity Accounts.

Total Return Swaps – TRS These are credit derivatives in which the return from the reference obligation is exchanged for a cash flow, and where upon the occurrence of a credit event, the protection buyer typically has the right to receive from the protection seller the equivalent of the difference between the updated value and the fair value of the benchmark obligation at the contract's settlement date. Credit Default Swaps – CDS These are credit derivatives where, upon the occurrence of a credit event, the protection buyer is entitled to receive from the protection seller an amount equal to the difference between the face value of the CDS contract and the fair value (fair value) of the benchmark obligation at the settlement date of the contract. In exchange, the seller receives a fee for providing the protection. Below, the composition of the Credit Derivatives portfolio shown by its reference value.

During the period, there were no credit events associated with the precipitating factors specified in the contracts. a.6) Accounting Hedge There are three types of hedge accounting: Fair Value Hedge, Cash Flow Hedge and Foreing Currency Investments Hedge. The derivatives used as hedging instruments are represented as follows: a.6.I ) Fair Value Hedge The Bank's fair value hedging strategy involves mitigating exposure to fair value fluctuations, specifically regarding interest receipts and payments on recognized assets and liabilities. The fair value management methodology adopted by the Bank segregates transactions based on risk factors (e.g., BRL/USD exchange rate risk, fixed interest rate risk in BRL, USD exchange rate coupon risk, inflation risk, interest risk, etc.). The transactions generate exposures that are consolidated by risk factor and compared with pre-established internal thresholds. To mitigate fluctuations in fair value associated with the receipt and payment of interest, the Bank employs interest rate swap contracts concerning fixed-rate assets and liabilities. The Bank utilizes fair value hedge in the following manner: • Designates Foreign Currency Swaps + Coupon versus % CDI and Fixed BRL Interest Rate or contracts USD Futures (DOL, DDI/DI) as a derivative instrument in Hedge Accounting structures, with foreign currency loan operations as the hedged item. • The Bank maintains an active loan portfolio originated in fixed-rate U.S. Dollars at Santander EFC, whose transactions are recorded in Euros. To manage this currency mismatch, the Bank designates a Foreign Currency Swap, exchanging Floating Euros for Fixed U.S. Dollars, as a hedge against market risk for the corresponding loans. • The Bank is subject to a pre-fixed interest rate risk stemming from Government Securities (NTN-F and LTN) held within its Financial Assets portfolio, which are measured through Other Comprehensive Income. To manage this risk mismatch, the Bank enters into DI futures contracts on the exchange or engages in interest rate swaps, designating these as derivative instruments within a Hedge Accounting structure. • The Bank is exposed to IPCA (broad consumer price index) risk stemming from debentures within its available-for-sale securities portfolio. To manage this exposure, the Bank enters into IPCA futures contracts ("DAP") on the exchange and designates them as derivative instruments within a Hedge Accounting structure. Santander assesses effectiveness requirements through: • Demonstration of the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument through a qualitative test and, if not met, through quantitative tests that compare the market value of the hedged items, corresponding to the hedged risk, with the value of the hedging instruments. Additionally, a quantitative test of the variations in the market values of the hedging instrument and the hedged item is performed prospectively; • Calculation of the hedge ratio, which corresponds to the ratio between the quantity of items effectively hedged by Santander and the quantity of hedging instruments effectively used; • Assessment of the predominance of credit risk, carried out through the analysis of the credit risk exposure of the hedged items and the hedging instruments; In fair value hedges, both gains and losses on hedging instruments and on the hedged items (attributable to the type of risk being hedged) are recognized directly in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

(*) | The Bank employs market risk hedging strategies, the targets of which are assets in its portfolio, which is why we present the liabilities side of the respective instruments. For structures that have futures as instruments, we provide the balance of the daily adjustment calculated, recorded in the off-balance sheet account.
a.6.II) Cash Flow Hedge The Bank's cash flow hedging strategies consist of hedging against exposure to fluctuations in cash flows, interest payments, and currency exchange rates, which are attributable to changes in interest rates affecting recognized assets and liabilities, as well as exchange rate fluctuations impacting unrecognized assets and liabilities. The Bank utilizes cash flow hedge in the following manner: • The Bank engages in active swaps indexed to fixed US Dollars and liabilities in foreign currency, designating these as hedging instruments within a Cash Flow Hedge structure, where the hedged items are foreign currency loans negotiated with third parties via its offshore branches and Brazilian external debt securities measured at amortized cost. • The Bank enters into Dollar Futures or DDI + DI Futures (Synthetic Dollar Futures) contracts and designates them as hedging instruments within a Cash Flow Hedge structure, where the hedged items are the Bank's portfolio of Dollar-denominated loans and Promissory Notes in the available-for-sale securities portfolio measured at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income. • The Bank maintains a portfolio of assets indexed to the Euro and traded in offshore branches. In the transaction, the value of the asset in Euros will be converted to Dollars at the exchange rate specified in the foreign exchange contract for the transaction. After this conversion, the principal amount of the transaction, now denominated in Dollars, will be adjusted by either a floating or a fixed rate. The assets will be hedged with a Cross-Currency Swap to transfer the Euro risk to LIBOR + Coupon. Santander assesses effectiveness requirements through: • Demonstration of the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument through a qualitative test and, if not met, through quantitative tests that compare the market value of the hedged items, corresponding to the hedged risk, with the value of the hedging instruments. Additionally, a quantitative test of the variations in the market values of the hedging instrument and the hedged item is performed prospectively; • Calculation of the hedge ratio, which corresponds to the ratio between the quantity of items effectively hedged by Santander and the quantity of hedging instruments effectively used; • Assessment of the predominance of credit risk, carried out through the analysis of the credit risk exposure of the hedged items and the hedging instruments; In this hedging strategy, the effectiveness tests are conducted by comparing two proxies, one for the hedged item and another for the hedging instrument. The hedged item proxy is a "conceptual" swap, where the passive leg mimics the part of the Stable Portion intended for protection, and the active pre-fixed leg mirrors the set of futures designated as the hedge, consistent with the market rates on the hedge designation day. The hedge instrument proxy is a "conceptual" swap, in which the active leg consists of the number of futures contracts designated as the hedge, and the passive pre-fixed leg represents the rate negotiated at the acquisition of these contracts. The proxy remains stable throughout the strategy as the contracts are held to maturity. Any ineffectiveness is recognized in the income statement under the line item "Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities (net)." In cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument is temporarily recognized in equity under the line item "Other Comprehensive Income - Cash Flow Hedges" (note 25) until the projected transactions take place. At that point, this portion is recognized in the consolidated statements of income, except if the projected transactions result in the recognition of non-financial assets or liabilities, in which case this portion will be included in the cost of the financial asset or liability. The ineffective portion of the change in the value of foreign exchange hedging derivatives is recognized directly in the consolidated statements of income. Furthermore, the ineffective portion of gains and losses on cash flow hedge instruments in a foreign operation is directly recognized in "Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities (net)" in the consolidated income statements.
