1.	Company information:

Banco de Chile is authorized to operate as a commercial bank since September 17, 1996, being, in conformity with the stipulations of article 25 of Law No. 19,396, the legal continuation of Banco de Chile resulting from the merger of the Banco Nacional de Chile, Banco Agrícola and Banco de Valparaiso, which was constituted by public deed dated October 28, 1893, granted before the Notary Public of Santiago, Mr. Eduardo Reyes Lavalle, authorized by Supreme Decree of November 28, 1893.

The Bank is a Corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Chile, regulated by the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market (“CMF”).

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Principles:

(a)

Basis of preparation:

Legal dispositions

Decree Law No. 3,538 of 1980, according to the text replaced by the first article of Law No. 21,000 that “Creates the Commission for the Financial Market”, provides in numeral 6 of its article 5 that the Commission for the Market Financial (CMF) may "set the standards for the preparation and presentation of reports, balance sheets, statements of situation and other financial statements of the audited entities and determine the principles under which they must keep their accounting".

Subsidiaries

Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 incorporate financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries. According IFRS 10 – “Consolidated Financial Statements”. Control requires exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to affect those returns through power over an investee. Specifically the Bank have power over the investee when has existing rights that give it the ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee.

When the Bank has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, but these voting rights are enough to have the ability to direct the relevant activities unilaterally, then conclude the Bank has control. The Bank considers all factors and relevant circumstances to evaluate if their voting rights are enough to obtain the control, which it includes:

●

The amount of voting rights that the Bank has, related to the amount of voting rights of the others stakeholders;

Associates and Joint Ventures

Associates

An associate is an entity over whose operating and financial management policy decisions the Bank has significant influence, without to have the control over the associate. Significant influence is generally presumed when the Bank holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Other considered factors when determining whether the Bank has significant influence over another entity are the representation on the board of directors and the existence of material intercompany transactions. The existence of these factors could determine the existence of significant influence over an entity even though the Bank had participation less than 20% of the voting rights.

Investments in associates where exists significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method. In accordance with the equity method, the Bank’s investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently increased or decreased to reflect the proportional participation of the Bank in the net income or loss of the associate and other movements recognized in its shareholders’ equity. Goodwill arising from the acquisition of an associate is included in the net book value, net of any accumulated impairment loss.

Joint Ventures

Joint Ventures are joint arrangements whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint control exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

According to IFRS 11 "Joint Arrangements", an entity will determine the type of joint arrangement in which it is involved, and may classify the agreement as a "Joint operation" or a "Joint venture".

For investments defined like “Joint Venture”, they will be registered according equity method.

Investments in other companies that, for their characteristics, are defined like “Joint Ventures” are the following:

Artikos S.A.

Servipag Ltda.

Financial asset and liability valuation criteria:

Measurement is the process of determining the monetary amounts at which the elements of the financial statements are to be recognized and carried in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the Consolidated Statement of Other Comprehensive Income. This involves selecting the particular basis or method of measurement.

In the Consolidated Financial Statements several measuring bases are used with different levels mixed among them. These bases or methods include the following:

(i)

Initial recognition

The Bank and its subsidiaries recognize loans to customers, trading and investment securities, deposits, debt issued and subordinated liabilities and other assets o liabilities on the date of negotiation. Purchases and sales of financial assets performed on a regular basis are recognized as of the trade date on which the Bank committed to purchase or sell the asset.

(ii)

Classification

Assets, liabilities and income accounts have been classified in conformity with standards issued by the CMF.

(iii)

Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

The Bank and its subsidiaries derecognize a financial asset (or where applicable part of a financial asset) from its Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the contractual rights to the cash flows of the financial asset have expired or when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset are transferred during a transaction in which all ownership risks and rewards of the financial asset are transferred. Any portion of transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Bank is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

When the Bank transfers a financial asset, it assesses to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. In this case:

(a)

If substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred, it is derecognized, and any rights or obligations created or retained upon transfer are recognized separately as assets or liabilities.

(b)

If substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been retained, the Bank continues to recognize it.

(c)

If substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are neither transferred nor retained, the Bank will determine if it has retained control of the financial asset. In this case:

(i)

If the Bank has not retained control, the financial asset will be derecognized, and any rights or obligations created or retained upon transfer will be recognized separately as assets or liabilities.

(ii)

If the Bank has retained control, it will continue to recognize the financial asset in the Consolidated Financial Statement by an amount equal to its exposure to changes in value that can experience and recognize a financial liability associated to the transferred financial asset.

The Bank derecognizes a financial liability (or a portion thereof) from its Consolidated Statement of Financial Position if, and only if, it has extinguished or, in other words, when the obligation specified in the corresponding contract has been paid or settled or has expired.

(iv)

Offsetting

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Statement of Financial Position if, and only if, the Bank has the legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realize an asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Income and expenses are shown net only if accounting standards allow such treatment, or in the case of gains and losses arising from a group of similar transactions such as the Bank’s trading activities.

(v)

Valuation at amortized cost

Amortized cost is the amount at which a financial asset or liability is measured at initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization (calculated using the effective interest rate method) of any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount and minus any reduction for impairment.

(vi)

Fair value measurements

Fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between participants in a main market (or more advantageous) at the measurement date under current market conditions, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using a valuation technique. The most objective and common fair value is the price that you would pay on an active, transparent and deep market ("quoted price" or "market price").

When available, the Bank estimates the fair value of an instrument using quoted prices in an active market for that instrument. A market is considered active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available and represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis.

If a market for a financial instrument is not active, the Bank establishes fair value using a valuation technique. These valuation techniques include the use of recent market transactions between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, if available, as well as references to the fair value of other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flows and options pricing models.

The chosen valuation technique use the maximum observable market data, relies as little as possible on estimates performed by the Bank, incorporates factors that market participants would consider in setting a price and is consistent with accepted economic methodologies for pricing financial instruments. Inputs into the valuation technique reasonably represent market expectations and include risk and return factors that are inherent in the financial instrument. Periodically, the Bank calibrates the valuation techniques and tests it for validity using prices from observable current market transaction in the same instrument or based on available observable market information.

Fair value measurements, continued:

The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is the transaction price (i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or received) unless the fair value of that instrument is evidenced by comparison with other observable current market transactions in the same instrument (i.e. without modification or repackaging) or based on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from observable markets. However, when transaction price provides the best evidence of fair value at initial recognition, the financial instrument is initially measured at the transaction price and any difference between this price and the value initially obtained from a valuation model is subsequently recognized in incomes.

On the other hand, it should be noted that the Bank has financial assets and liabilities offset each other’s market risks, based on which average market prices are used as a basis for determining their fair value.

Then, the fair value estimates obtained from models are adjusted for any other factors, such as liquidity risk or model uncertainties; to the extent that the Bank believes that a third-party market participant would take them into account in pricing a transaction.

The Bank’s fair value disclosures are included in Note No. 39.

(f)

According to rules, the Bank not register as own portfolio the instruments bought within resale agreements.

The Bank also carries out operations under repurchase agreements as a form of financing. The investments that are sold under repurchase obligation and that serve as collateral for borrowings are classified as “Financial Assets held-for-trading” or “Available-for-sale Instruments”. The obligation to repurchase the investment is classified in the liability as “Obligations under repurchase agreements”, which is valued in accordance with the agreed-upon interest rate.

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 it not exist operations corresponding to securities lending.

(l)

Derivative instruments:

A “Financial Derivative” is a financial instrument whose value changes in response to changes in an observable market variable (such as an interest rate, exchange rate, the price of a financial instrument or a market index, including credit ratings), whose initial investment is very small in relation to other financial instruments with a similar response to changes in market conditions and which is generally settled at a future date.

The Bank maintains contracts of Derivative financial instruments, for cover the exposition of risk of foreign currency and interest rate. These contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at their cost (included transactions costs) and subsequently measured at fair value. Derivative instruments are reported as an asset when their fair value is positive and as a liability when negative under the item “Derivative Instruments”.

Changes in fair value of derivative contracts held for trading purpose are included under “Profit (loss) net of financial operations”, in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

In addition, the Bank includes in the valorization of derivatives the “Credit valuation adjustment” (CVA), to reflect the counterparty risk in the determination of fair value and the Bank’s own credit risk, known as “Debit valuation adjustment” (DVA).

Certain embedded derivatives in other financial instruments are treated as separate derivatives when their risk and characteristics are not closely related to those of the main contract and if the contract in its entirety is not recorded at its fair value with its unrealized gains and losses included in income.

At the moment of subscription of a derivative contract must be designated by the Bank as a derivative instrument for trading or hedging purposes.

Allowance for individual evaluations:

An individual analysis of debtors is applied to individuals and companies that are of such significance with respect to size, complexity or level of exposure to the bank, that they must be analyzed in detail.

Likewise, the analysis of borrowers should focus on its credit quality related to the ability to payment, to have sufficient and reliable information, and to analyze in regard to guarantees, terms, interest rates, currency and revaluation, etc.

For purposes of establish the allowances, the bank must asses the credit quality, then classify to one of three categories of loans portfolio: Normal, Substandard and Non-complying Loans, it must classify the debtors and their operations related to loans and contingent loans in the categories that apply.

v.i.1

Normal Loans and Substandard Loans:

Normal loans: correspond to borrowers who are up to date on their payment obligations and show no sign of deterioration in their credit quality. Loans classified in categories A1 through A6.

Substandard loans: includes all borrowers with insufficient payment capacity or significant deterioration of payment capacity that may be reasonably expected not to comply with all principal and interest payments obligations set forth in the credit agreement.

This category also includes all loans that have been non-performing for more than 30 days. Loans classified in this category are B1 through B4.

As a result of individual analysis of the debtors, the banks must classify them in the following categories, assigning, subsequently, the percentage of probability of default and loss given default resulting in the following percentage of expected loss:

Classification	Category of the debtors	Probability of default (%)		Loss given default (%)		Expected loss (%)
Normal Loans	A1		0.04		90.0		0.03600

To determine the amount of allowances to be constitute for normal and substandard portfolio, previously should be estimated the exposure to subject to the allowances, which will be applied to respective expected loss (expressed in decimals), which consist of probability of default (PD) and loss given default (LGD) established for the category in which the debtor and/or guarantor belong, as appropriate.

The exposure affects to allowances applicable to loans plus contingent loans minus the amounts to be recovered by way of the foreclosure of financial or real guarantees of the operations. In addition, in qualified cases, the substitution of the credit risk of the direct debtor for the credit quality of the guarantor may be admitted. Loans mean the book value of credit of the respective debtor, while for contingent loans, the value resulting from to apply the indicated in No. 3 of Chapter B-3 of Banking Accounting Standards Compendium.

In the case of real guarantees, the Bank must demonstrate that the value assigned to this deduction reasonably reflects the value that it would obtain in the sale of the assets or capital instruments. Also, in qualified cases, the direct debtor’s credit risk may be substituted for the credit quality of the guarantor. In no case may the guaranteed securities be discounted from the amount of the exposure, since this procedure is only applicable when it comes to financial or real guarantees.

The banks must use the following equation:

Provision _debtor = (ESA-GE) x (PD _debtor /100)x(LGD _debtor /100)+GE x(PD _guarantor/100)x(LGD _guarantor/100)

Where:

ESA

= Exposure subject to allowances, (Loans + Contingent Loans) – Financial Guarantees

= Guaranteed exposure

However, the Bank must maintain a minimum provision level of 0.50% over normal portfolio and contingents loans.

v.i.2

Non-complying Loans:

The non-complying portfolio includes the debtors and their credits for which their recovery is considered remote, as they show an impaired or no payment capacity. This category comprises all debtors who have stopped paying their creditors or with visible evidence that they will stop doing so, as well as those for which a forced restructuring of their debts is necessary, reducing the obligation or postponing the payment of the principal or interest and, in addition, any debtor that has 90 days overdue or more in the payment of interest or principal of any credit.

Non-complying Loans, continued:

This portfolio is composed of the debtors belonging to categories C1 to C6 of the rating scale and all credits, including 100% of the amount of contingent loans, held by those same debtors.

For purposes to establish the allowances on the non-complying loans, the Bank disposes the use of percentage of allowances to be applied on the amount of exposure, which corresponds to the amount of loans and contingent loans that maintain the same debtor. To apply that percentage, must be estimated a expected loss rate, less the amount of the exposure the recoveries by way of foreclosure of financial or real guarantees that to support the operation and, if there are available specific background, also must be deducting present value of recoveries obtainable exerting collection actions, net of expenses associated with them. This loss percentage must be categorized in one of the six levels defined by the range of expected actual losses by the Bank for all transactions of the same debtor.

These categories, their range of loss as estimated by the Bank and the percentages of allowance that must be applied on the amount of exposures, are listed in the following table:

Type of Loan	Classification	Expected loss	Allowance (%)
Non-complying loans	C1	Up to 3 %		2
	C2	More than 3% up to 20%		10
	C3	More than 20% up to 30%		25
	C4	More than 30 % up to 50%		40
	C5	More than 50% up to 80%		65
	C6	More than 80%		90

For these loans, the expected loss must be calculated in the following manner:

	Expected loss	= (TE – R) / TE
	Allowance	= TE x (AP/100)

Where:

= total exposure

= recoverable amount based on estimates of collateral value and collection efforts

= allowance percentage (based on the category in which the expected loss should be classified).

No obligation of the debtor with the bank with more than 30 calendar days overdue.

No new refinances granted to pay its obligations.

At least one of the payments includes amortization of capital.

If the debtor has a credit with partial payment periods less than six months, has already made two payments.

If the debtor must pay monthly fees for one or more credits, has paid four consecutive dues.

Allowances for group evaluations

Group evaluations are relevant to address a large number of operations whose individual amounts are low, and whether they are natural persons or small companies. Such assessments, and the criteria for application, must be consistent with the transaction of give the credit. Require the formation of groups of loans with similar characteristics in terms of type of debtors and conditions agreed, to establish technically based estimates by prudential criteria and following both the payment behavior of the group that concerned as recoveries of defaulted loans and consequently provide the necessary provisions to cover the risk of the portfolio.

Banks may use two alternative methods for determining provisions for retail loans that are evaluated as a group.

Under first method, it will be used the experience to explain the payment behavior of each homogeneous group of debtors and recoveries through collateral and of collection process, when it correspond, with objective of to estimate directly a percentage of expected losses that will be apply to the amount of the loans of respective group.

Under second method, the banks will segment to debtors in homogeneous groups, according described above, associating to each group a determined probability of default and a percentage of recovery based in a historic analysis. The amount of provisions to register it will be obtained multiplied the total loans of respective group by the percentages of estimated default and of loss given the default.

In both methods, estimated loss must be related with type of portfolio and terms of operations.

The Bank to determine its provisions has opted for using second method.

In the case of consumer loans, collateral are not considered for the purpose of estimating the expected loss.

To the extent that the CMF has a standard methodology, the Bank must recognize minimum provisions in accordance with them. The constitution of provisions will be made considering the highest value obtained between the respective standard method and the internal method.

The Bank must discriminate between provisions on the normal portfolio and on the portfolio in default, and those that protect the risks of contingent credits associated with those portfolios.

Standard method of provisions for group portfolio

The standard methodologies presented below establish the variables and parameters that determine the provision factor for each type of portfolio that the CMF has defined as representative, according to the common characteristics shared by the operations that comprise them.

Residential mortgage portfolio

According to the established by the CMF, the provision factor applicable, represented by expected loss over the mortgage loans, it will depend to the past due of each credit and the relation, at the end of month, between outstanding capital and the value of the mortgage guarantees (CMG), according the following table:

	Provision factor applicable according past due and CMG
		Past due days at the end-month
CMG	Concept	0	1-29		30-59		60-89		Non – Complying Loans
CMG ≤ 40%	PD (%)	1.0916		21.3407		46.0536		75.1614		100.0000

In the event that a single debtor maintains more than one home mortgage loan with the bank and one of them is 90 days or more behind, all such loans will be assigned to the defaulted portfolio, calculating the provisions for each one of them. They agree with their respective percentages of CMG.

Commercial portfolio

To determine the allowances of the commercial portfolio, the Bank must consider the standard methods presented below, as applicable to commercial leasing operations or other types of commercial loans. Then, the applicable provision factor will be assigned considering the parameters defined for each method.

Commercial Leasing Operations

The provision factor must be applied to the current value of commercial leasing operations (including the purchase option) and will depend on the default of each operation, the type of leased asset and the relationship between the current value of each operation and the leased asset value (PVB) at each month-end, as indicated in the following tables:

Probability of default (PD) applicable according to default and type of asset (%)
	Type of asset

The determination of the PVB relationship will be made considering the appraisal value expressed in UF for real estate and in Chilean pesos for non-real estate, recorded at the time of the respective loan granting, taking into account possible situations that may be causing temporary increases in the assets prices at that time.

Generic commercial placements and factoring

In the case of factoring operations and other commercial placements, other than those indicated above, the provision factor, applicable to the amount of the placement and the exposure of the contingent loan risk (as indicated in paragraph 3 of Chapter B-3 ), will depend on the default of each operation and the relationship that exists at the end of each month, between the obligations that the debtor has with the bank and the value of the collateral that protect them (PTVG), as indicated in the following tables:

The collaterals used for the purposes of calculating the PTVG relationship of this method may be specific or general, including those that are simultaneously specific and general. Collateral can only be considered if, according to the respective coverage clauses, it was constituted in the first degree of preference in favor of the Bank and only guarantees the debtor’s credits with respect to which it is imputed (not shared with other debtors).

The invoices assigned in the factoring operations will not be considered for purposes of calculating the PTVG. The excess of collateral associated with mortgage loans referred to in numeral 3.1.1 Residential mortgage portfolio in Chapter B-1 of CNC may be considered, computed as the difference between 80% of the property’ commercial value, according to with the conditions set out in that framework, and the mortgage loan that guarantees.

For the calculation of the PTVG ratio, the following considerations must be taken:

Transactions with specific collaterals: when the debtor granted specific collateral for generic commercial loans and factoring, the PTVG ratio is calculated independently for each covered transaction, such as the division between the amount of the loans and the contingent loans exposure and the collateral’s value of the covered product.

ii.

Transactions with general collaterals: when the debtor granted general or general and specific collaterals, the Bank calculates the respective PTVG, jointly for all generic commercial loans and factoring and not contemplated in the preceding paragraph i), as the quotient between the sum of the amounts of the loans and exposures of contingent loans and the general, or general and specific collateral that, according to the scope of the remaining coverage clauses, safeguard the loans considered in the numerator aforementioned coverage ratio.

(v.ii.2)

Portfolio in default

The portfolio in default includes all placements and 100% of the amount of the contingent loans, of the debtors that the closing of a month presents a delay equal to or greater than 90 days in the payment of the interest of the capital of any credit. It will also include debtors who are granted a credit to leave an operation that has more than 60 days of delay in their payment, as well as those debtors who were subject to forced restructuring or partial forgiveness of a debt.

They may exclude from the portfolio in default: a) mortgage loans for housing, which delinquent less than 90 days, unless the debtor has another loan of the same type with greater delinquency; and, b) credits for financing higher studies of Law No. 20,027, which do not yet present the non-compliance conditions indicated in Circular No. 3,454 of December 10, 2008.

All credits of the debtor must be kept in the Default Portfolio until there is a normalization of their ability or payment behavior, without prejudice to punishment of each particular credit that meets the condition indicated in point (vi) of this letter in order to remove a debtor from the Default Portfolio, once the circumstances that lead to classification in this portfolio according to the present rules have been overcome, at least the following copulative conditions must be met:

No obligation of the debtor with the bank with more than 30 calendar days overdue.

No new refinances granted to pay its obligations.

At least one of the payments includes amortization of capital. This condition does not apply in the case of debtors who only have credits for financing higher education in accordance with Law No. 20,027.

If the debtor has a credit with partial payment periods less than six months, has already made two payments.

If the debtor must pay monthly fees for one or more credits, has paid four consecutive dues.

The debtor does not appear with unpaid debts direct according to the information recast by CMF, except for insignificant amounts.

Provisions related to financing with FOGAPE COVID-19 guarantee

On July 17, 2020, the CMF requested to determine specific provisions of the credits guaranteed by the FOGAPE COVID-19 guarantee, for which the expected losses must be determined estimating the risk of each operation, without considering the substitution of credit quality of the guarantee, according to the corresponding individual or group analysis method, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter B-1 of the CNC. This procedure must be carried out in an aggregate manner, grouping all those operations to which the same deductible percentage is applicable.

The deductible will be applied by the Fund Administrator, which must be borne by each financial institution and does not depend on each particular operation, but is determined based on the total of the balances guaranteed by the Fund, for each group of companies that have the same coverage, according to their net sales size.

(v.iv)

Provisions related to financing with FOGAPE Reactivation guarantee.

To determine the provisions of the amounts guaranteed by the FOGAPE Reactivation, the Bank considers the substitution of the credit quality of the debtors for that of the FOGAPE, for all the types of financing indicated, up to the amount covered by the aforementioned guarantee. Naturally, the option to consider the risk attributable to FOGAPE may be made while said guarantee remains in force, without considering the capitalized interest, in accordance with the provisions of article 17 of the Fund Regulations.

Likewise, for the computation of the provisions of the amount not covered by the guarantee, corresponding to the debtors, the treatment must be differentiated according to the level of default of the refinanced credit and the grace period, which must consider the cumulative consecutive months grace period between the refinanced loan and other prior measures. For this purpose, the following situations should be considered:

Refinancing with less than 60 days past due and less than 180 days of grace.

When the Bank grants the refinancing and is the current creditor, depending on the methodology used in accounting for provisions (standard or internal method) for the group portfolio, the computation of default and the expected loss parameters remain constant at the time to carry out the refinancing, as long as no payment is due.

In the case of debtors evaluated on an individual basis, their risk category is maintained at the time of rescheduling, which does not prevent them from being reclassified to the category that corresponds to them, in the event of a worsening of their payment capacity.

In its credit granting policies, the Bank considers at least the following aspects:

A robust procedure for the categorization of viable debtors, which considers at least the sector and its solvency and liquidity situation.

Efficient mechanisms for monitoring the debtor’s situation, with formally defined internal governance.

ii.

Interest is charged in the months of grace, in accordance with the guidelines established in article 15 letter a) of the Regulation, or there is a demand for payment in another credit with the bank. In the latter case, if noncompliance is observed, the carry forward rules contained in numerals 2.2 and 3.2 of Chapter B-1 of the CNC must be considered, depending on whether it is a credit subject to individual or group evaluation, respectively.

Refinancing with grace periods greater than 360 days.

The Bank must apply the provisions established in Chapter B-1 of the CNC, considering the operation as a forced renegotiation and, therefore, apply the provisions that correspond to the portfolio in default.

(vi)

Charge-offs

Generally, the charge-offs are produced when the contractual rights on cash flows end. In case of loans, even if the above does not happen, it will proceed to charge-offs the respective asset balances.

The charge-off refers to derecognition of the assets in the Statement of Financial Position, related to the respective transaction and, therefore, the part that could not be past-due if a loan is payable in installments, or a lease.

The charge-off must be to make using credit risk provisions constituted, whatever the cause for which the charge-off was produced.

Loan loss recoveries

Cash recoveries on charge-off loans including loans that were reacquired from the Central Bank of Chile are recorded directly in income in the Consolidated Statement of Income, as a reduction of the “Provisions for Loan Losses” item.

In the event that there are recovery in assets, is recognized in income the revenues for the amount they are incorporated in the asset. The same criteria will be followed if the leased assets are recovered after the charge-off of a lease operation, to incorporate those to the asset.

Any renegotiation of a credit already written off does not give rise to income, as long as the operation remains to have an impaired quality; the actual payments received must be treated as recoveries of credits written off, as indicated above.

Therefore, renegotiated credit can be recorded as an asset only if it has not deteriorated quality; also recognizing revenue from activation must be recorded like recovery of loans.

The same criteria should apply in the case that was give credit to pay a charge-off loan.

Investment instruments:

Investment instruments are classified into two categories: Investments to maturity and Instruments available for sale. The category of Investments to maturity includes only those instruments in which it have the capacity and intention to hold them until their expiration date. The other investment instruments are considered as available-for-sale.

Financial assets held-to-maturity are recorded at their cost plus accrued interest and indexations less impairment provisions made when the carrying amount exceeds the estimated recoverable amount.

A financial asset classified as available-for-sale is initially recognized at its fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset, subsequently measured at their fair value based on market prices or valuation models. Unrealized gains or losses as a result of fair value adjustments are recorded in “Other comprehensive income” within Equity. When these investments are sold, the cumulative fair value adjustment existing within equity is recorded directly in income under “Net financial operating income”.

Interest and indexations of financial assets held-to-maturity and available-for-sale are included in the line item “Interest revenue”.

The Bank may reclassify financial assets from the Available-for-sale instruments category to Held-to-maturity investments, due to a change in intent and the Bank’s ability to hold them to maturity. The carrying amount of the financial asset fair value at the date of reclassification will be converted into its new amortized cost and any result from that asset, which had previously been recognized in other comprehensive income, will be taken to profit or loss over the remaining life period of the investment held to maturity, using the effective interest rate method.

Investment securities, which are subject to hedge accounting, are adjusted according to the rules for hedge accounting as described in Note No. 2 letter (l).

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets are identified as non-monetary assets (separately identifiable from other assets) without physical substance which arise as a result of a legal transaction or are developed internally by the consolidated entities. They are assets whose cost can be estimated reliably and from which the consolidated entities have control and consider it probable that future economic benefits will be generated. Intangible assets are recorded initially at acquisition cost and are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated amortization or any accumulated impairment losses.

Software or computer programs purchased by the Bank and its subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses.

The subsequent expense in software assets is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefit for the specific asset. All other expenses are recorded as an expense as incurred.

Amortization is recorded in income using the straight-line amortization method based on the estimated useful life of the software, from the date on which it is available for use. The estimated useful life of software is a maximum of 6 years.

(p)

Property and equipment:

Property and equipment includes the amount of land, real estate, furniture, computer equipment and other installations owned by the consolidated entities and which are for own use. These assets are stated at historical cost less depreciation and accumulated impairment. This cost includes expenses than have been directly attributed to the asset’s acquisition.

Depreciation is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property and equipment.

Estimated useful lives for 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

- Buildings		50 years
- Installations		10 years
- Equipment		5 years
- Supplies and accessories		5 years

Maintenance expenses relating to those assets held for own uses are recorded as expenses in the year in which they are incurred.

Deferred taxes and income taxes:

The income tax provision of the Bank and its subsidiaries has been determined in conformity with current legal provisions.

The Bank and its subsidiaries recognize, when appropriate, deferred tax assets and liabilities for future estimates of tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the book and tax values of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured based on the tax rate expected to be applied, in accordance with current tax law, in the year that deferred tax assets are realized or liabilities are settled. The effects of future changes in tax legislation or tax rates are recognized in deferred taxes starting on the date of publication of the law approving such changes.

Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is likely that future tax profits will be sufficient to recover deductions for temporary differences. According to instructions from the CMF, deferred taxes are presented in the Statement of Financial Position according to IAS 12 “Income Tax”.

The Bank classifies and measures investments in companies in accordance with IFRS 5 “Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations” when it expects to recover the carrying amount mainly through the sale of said investments. In order to carry out this reclassification, the Bank ensures that it meets the requirements established for it:

It must be available in its present condition for immediate sale and its sale must be highly probable.

For a sale to be highly probable, the appropriate level of management must be committed to a plan to sell the asset (or disposal group), and a program to find a buyer and complete such plan must have been actively initiated.

Likewise, the sale should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year of the classification date.

The Bank will recognize any impairment loss on non-current assets held for sale, as a reduction in the value of said assets to fair value less costs to sell.

As of December 31, 2021, the Bank classified in this category the investment held in the company Nexus SA, which is measured at book value, since it represents the lower value in relation to fair value less costs of sale (See Notes No. 5 letter (i), No. 14 letter (a) and No. 18 letter (a)).

(s)

Assets received in lieu of payment:

Assets received or awarded in lieu of payment of loans and accounts receivable from customers are recorded, in the case of assets received in lieu of payment, at the price agreed by the parties, or otherwise, when the parties do not reach an agreement, at the amount at which the Bank is awarded those assets at a judicial auction.

Assets received in lieu of payment are classified under “Other Assets” and they are recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or net realizable value, less charge-off and presented net of a portfolio valuation allowance. The CMF requires regulatory charge-offs if the asset is not sold within a one year of foreclosure.

(t)

Investment properties:

Investments properties are real estate assets held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both, but are not held-for-sale in the ordinary course of business or used for administrative purposes. Investment properties are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss and are presented under “Other Assets”.

(u)

Debt issued:

Financial instruments issued by the Bank are classified in the Statement of Financial Position under “Debt issued” items, where the substance of the contractual arrangement results in the Bank having an obligation either to deliver cash or another financial asset to the holder or to satisfy the obligation other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash.

Debt issued is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on the issue and costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate.

Provisions and contingent liabilities:

Provisions are liabilities involving uncertainty about their amount or maturity. They are recorded in the Statement of Financial Position when the following requirements are jointly met:

a present obligation has arisen from a past event;

ii)

as of the date of issuance of the financial statements it is probable that the Bank or its subsidiaries have to disburse resources to settle the obligation; and

iii)

the amount can be reliably measured.

A contingent asset or liability is any right or obligation arising from past events whose existence will be confirmed by one or more uncertain future events which are not within the control of the Bank.

Contingent credits are understood as operations or commitments in which the Bank assumes a credit risk by committing itself to third parties, in the event of a future event, to make a payment or disbursement that must be recovered from its clients.

The following are classified as contingent credits in the complementary information:

Guarantees and sureties: Comprises guarantees, sureties and standby letters of credit. In addition it includes payment guarantees for purchases in factoring transactions.

ii.

Confirmed foreign letters of credit: Corresponds to letters of credit confirmed by the Bank.

iii.

Documentary letters of credit: Includes documentary letters of credit issued by the Bank which have not yet been negotiated.

iv.

Documented guarantee with promissory notes.

Undrawn credit lines: The unused amount of credit lines that allow customers to draw without prior approval by the Bank (for example, using credit cards or overdrafts in checking accounts).

vi.

Other credit commitments: Amounts not yet lent under committed loans, which must be disbursed at an agreed future date when events contractually agreed upon with the customer occur, such as in the case of irrevocable lines of credit linked to the progress of projects, or credits for higher studies referred to in Law No. 20,027.

Other contingent loans: Includes any other kind of commitment by the Bank which may exist and give rise to lending when certain future events occur. In general, this includes unusual transactions such as pledges made to secure the payment of loans among third parties or derivative contracts made by third parties that may result in a payment obligation and are not covered by deposits.

Exposure to credit risk on contingent loans:

In order to calculate provisions on contingent loans, as indicated in Chapter B-3 of the Accounting Standards Compendium of the CMF, the amount of exposure that must be considered shall be equivalent to the percentage of the amounts of contingent loans indicated below:

Type of contingent loan	Exposure
a) Guarantors and pledges		100	%
b) Confirmed foreign letters of credit		20	%
c) Documentary letters of credit issued		20	%
d) Guarantee deposits		50	%
e) Undrawn credit lines		35	%
f) Other loan commitments:
- College education loans Law No. 20,027		15	%
- Others		100	%
g) Other contingent loans		100	%

Notwithstanding the above, when dealing with transactions performed with customers with overdue loans as indicated in Chapter B-1 of the CNC of the CMF, that exposure shall be equivalent to 100% of its contingent loans.

Provisions for minimum dividends:

According with the Accounting Standards Compendium of the CMF, the Bank records within liabilities the portion of net income for the year that should be distributed to comply with the Corporations Law or its dividend policy. For these purposes, the Bank establishes a provision in a complementary equity account within retained earnings.

Distributable net income is considered for the purpose of calculating a minimum dividends provision, which is defined as that which results from reducing or adding to net income the value of price-level restatement for the concept of restatement or adjustment of paid-in capital and reserves for the year.

(x)

Employee benefits:

(i)

Staff accrued vacations

The annual costs of vacations and staff benefits are recognized on an accrual basis.

(ii)

Short-term benefits

The Bank has a yearly bonus plan for its employees based on their ability to meet objectives and their individual contribution to the company’s results, consisting of a given number or portion of monthly salaries. It is provisioned for based on the estimated amount to be distributed.

(iii)

Staff severance indemnities

Banco de Chile has recorded a liability for long-term severance indemnities in accordance with employment contracts it has with certain employees. The liability, which is payable to specified retiring employees with 30 or 35 years of service, is recorded at the present value of the accrued benefits, which are calculated by applying a real discount rate to the benefit accrued as of year-end over the estimated average remaining service year.

Employee benefits, continued:

(iii)

Staff severance indemnities, continued:

Obligations for this defined benefits plan are valued according to the projected unit credit actuarial valuation method, using inputs such as staff turnover rates, expected salary growth in wages and probability that this benefit will be used, discounted at current long-term rates (5.70% as of December 31, 2021 and 2.31% as of December 31, 2020).

The discount rate used corresponds to the rate of 10-year Bonds in pesos of the Central Bank of Chile (BCP).

Losses and gains caused by changes in actuarial variables are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. There are no other additional costs that must be recognized by the Bank.

(y)

Earnings per share:

The basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the net income attributed to the Bank’s owners in a period and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during that period.

Diluted earnings per share are determined similarly to basic earnings, but the weighted average number of outstanding shares is adjusted to take into account the potential dilutive effect of the options on shares, warrants and convertible debt. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 there are no concepts to adjust.

(z)

Interest revenue and expense:

Interest income and expenses are recognized in the income statement using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate which exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument (or a shorter period) where appropriate, to the carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. To calculate the effective interest rate, the Bank determines cash flows by taking into account all contractual conditions of the financial instrument, excluding future credit losses.

The effective interest rate calculation includes all fees and other amounts paid or received that form part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are directly attributable to the purchase or issuance of a financial asset or liability.

For its impaired portfolio and high risk loans and accounts receivables from clients, the Bank has applied a conservative position of discontinuing accrual-basis recognition of interest revenue in the income statement; they are only recorded once received.

Summary of Significant Accounting Principles, continued:

Interest revenue and expense, continued:

As of December 31, 2021, the Bank applies the suspension of the recognition of interest and readjustments on an accrual basis for credits in the Income Statement, when the credit or one of its installments has been 90 days or more past due in its payment.

Until 2020, the Bank applied the suspension in the following cases:

Loans with individual evaluation:

Loans classified in categories C5 and C6: Accrual is suspended by the sole fact of being in the impaired portfolio.

Loans classified in categories C3 and C4: The accrual is suspended after have fulfilled three months in the impaired portfolio.

Group evaluation loans:

Any credit, with the exception of those that have real guarantees that reach at least 80%: The accrual is suspended when the credit or one of its installments has reached six months of delay in its payment.

Notwithstanding the above, in the case of loans subject to individual evaluation, recognition of income from accrual of interest and readjustments can be maintained for loans that are being paid normally and which correspond to obligations whose cash flows are independent, as can occur in the case of project financing.

The suspension of recognition of revenue on an accrual basis means that, while the credits are kept in the impaired portfolio, the related assets included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position will increase with no interest, or fees and adjustments in the Consolidated Statements of Income, and income will not be recognized for these items, unless they are actually received.

(aa)

Fees and commissions:

Revenue and expenses from fees are recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement using the criteria established in IFRS 15 “Revenue from contracts with customers”.

Under IFRS 15, revenues are recognized considering the terms of the contract with customers. Revenue is recognized when or as the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the goods or services committed to the customer.

Under IFRS 15, revenues are recognized using different criteria depending on their nature. The most significant are:

−

Those that correspond to a singular act, when the act that originates them takes place.

−

Those that originate in transactions or services that are extended over time, during the life of such transactions or services.

Commissions on loan commitments and other fees related to credit operations are deferred (together with the incremental costs directly related to the placement) and recognized as an adjustment to the effective interest rate of the placement. In the case of loan commitments, when there is no certainty of the date of effective placement, the commissions are recognized in the period of the commitment that originates it on a linear basis.

The fees registered by the Bank correspond mainly to:

−

Commissions for lines of credit and overdrafts: they are accrued in the period related to the granting of lines of credit and overdrafts in current account.

Identifying and measuring impairment:

Financial assets, different to loans to customers

Financial assets are reviewed throughout each year, and especially at each reporting date, to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of a loss event that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and the loss event had an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset that can be reliably calculated.

An impairment loss for financial assets (different to loans to customers) recorded at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted using the effective interest rate original.

An impairment loss on a financial asset available-for-sale is calculated based on its fair value. In this case, the objective evidence includes a significant and prolonged decline, under the original investment cost in the fair value of the investment.

If there is evidence of impairment, any amount previously recognized in equity, net gains (losses) not recognized in the income statement, are removed from equity and recognized in the income statement for the year, presenting as net gains (losses) related to financial assets available-for-sale. This amount is determined as the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any repayment and amortization) and the current fair value of the asset, less any impairment loss on that investment that has been previously recognized in the Income Statement.

When the fair value of the available-for-sale debt security recovers to, at least, amortized cost, it is no longer considered impaired and subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in equity.

All impairment losses are recognized in the incomes statement. Any cumulative loss related to available-for-sale financial assets recognized previously in equity is transferred to the incomes statement.

An impairment loss can only be reversed if it can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized. The amount of the reversal is recorded in the Income Statements up to the amount previously recognized as impairment. An impairment loss is reversed if, in a subsequent period, the fair value of the debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss.

Identifying and measuring impairment, continued:

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the non-financial assets of the Bank and its subsidiaries, excluding investment properties and deferred tax assets, are reviewed throughout the year and especially at each reporting date, to determine if any indication of impairment exists. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is then estimated.

Impairment losses recognized in prior years are assessed at each reporting date in search of any indication that the loss has decreased or disappeared. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimations used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reverted only to the extent that the book value of the asset does not exceed the carrying.

The Bank assesses at each reporting date and on an ongoing basis whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, the Bank estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the major value between fair value (less costs to sell) and its value in use. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, share prices and other available fair value indicators.

Impairment losses related to goodwill cannot be reversed in future years.

Financial and operating leases:

(i) The Bank acting as lessor

Assets leased to customers under agreements which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, with or without ultimate legal title, are classified as finance leases. When assets held are subject to a finance lease, the leased assets are derecognized and a receivable is recognized which is equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating, and arranging a finance lease are incorporated into the receivable through the discount rate applied to the lease. Finance lease income is recognized over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the finance lease.

Assets leased to customers under agreements which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases.

The leased investment properties, under the operating lease modality, are included in the statement of financial position as "Other assets" and depreciation is determined on the book value of these assets, applying a proportion of the value in a systematic way on the economic use of the estimated useful life. Lease income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(ii) The Bank acting as lessee

A contract is, or contains a lease, if one party has the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for a regular payment.

On the start date of a lease, a right-to-use assets leased is determined at cost, which includes the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability plus other disbursements made.

The amount of the lease liability is measured at the present value of future lease payments that have not been paid on that date, which are discounted using the Bank's incremental financing interest rate.

The right-of-use asset is measured using the cost model, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated losses due to impairment of value, depreciation of the right-of-use asset, is recognized in the Income Statements based on the linear depreciation method from the start date and until the end of the lease term.

The monthly variation of the UF for the contracts established in said monetary unit should be treated as a new measurement, therefore the UF readjustment modifies the value of the lease liability, and in parallel, the amount of the right-of-use asset must be adjusted by this effect.

After the start date, the lease liability is measured by lowering the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and the modifications to the lease.

According to IFRS 16 "Leases" the Bank does not apply this rule to contracts whose duration is 12 months or less and those that contain an underlying asset of low value. In these cases, payments are recognized as a lease expense.

Fiduciary activities:

The Bank provides trust and other fiduciary services that result in the holding or investing of assets on behalf of the clients. Assets held in a fiduciary capacity are not reported in the Financial Statements, as they are not the assets of the Bank. Contingencies and commitments arising from this activity are disclosed in Note No. 26 letter (a).

(ae)

Customer loyalty program:

The Bank maintains a loyalty program to provide incentives to its customers, which allows to acquire goods and/or services, based on the exchange of prize points ("Dolares-Premio"), which are granted based on the purchases made with Bank's credit cards and the compliance of certain conditions established in said program. The consideration for the prizes is made by a third party. In accordance with IFRS 15, these associated benefit plans have the necessary provisions to meet the delivery of committed future performance obligations.

(af)

Additional provisions:

In accordance to the CMF regulations, the banks have recorded additional allowances for its individually evaluated loan portfolio, taking into consideration the expected impairment of this portfolio. The calculation of this allowance is performed based on the Bank’s historical experience and considering possible future adverse macroeconomic conditions or circumstances that could affect a specific sector.

The provisions made in order to forestall the risk of macroeconomic fluctuations should anticipate situations reversal of expansionary economic cycles in the future, could translate into a worsening in the conditions of the economic environment and thus, function as a countercyclical mechanism accumulation of additional provisions when the scenario is favorable and release or assignment to specific provisions when environmental conditions deteriorate.

According to the above, additional provisions must always correspond to general provisions on commercial, consumer or mortgage loans, or segments identified, and in no case may be used to offset weaknesses of the models used by the Bank.

As of December 31, 2021 the additional provisions amounted Ch$540,252 million (Ch$320,252 million in December 2020), which are presents in the item “Provisions” of the liability in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. See Notes Relevant Events and Note Provisions.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

Standards approved and/or modified by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and by the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market (CMF):

Standards and interpretations that have been adopted in these Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of the date of issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements, the new accounting pronouncements issued by both the IASB and the CMF, which have been adopted by the Bank and its subsidiaries, are detailed below:

Accounting standards issued by IASB.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts and IFRS 16 Leases. Interest Rate Benchmark Reform.

In August 2020, the IASB issued a set of amendments related to phase 2 of the Benchmark Reform of Interbank Offering Rates (IBOR) and other benchmark interest rates amending IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16.

The amendments complement the changes issued during 2019 and focus on the effects on the financial statements when a company replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate. The amendments in phase two refer to changes that affect the contractual cash flows. A company does not need to write off / adjust the book value of financial instruments for changes, but rather update the effective interest rate to reflect the change to an alternative benchmark. In the case of hedge accounting, a company does not need to discontinue hedge accounting when making the changes required by the reform if the hedge meets other hedge accounting criteria. Regarding disclosures, the company must disclose information about the new risks arising from the reform and how it manages the transition to the alternative benchmark rates.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Early adoption of modifications is also allowed.

Banco de Chile has worked on the transition of reference rates, implementing an action plan that includes, among other aspects, identifying the main exposures and risks related to the LIBOR transition, developing products linked to the new reference rate, adaptation of systems, reviewing of current contracts and renegotiation with some clients, which will allow us to face the challenges imposed by the changes in the reference rates. According to the previous review, the number and amount of the operations is not significant in relation to the total current portfolio and no material effects are observed in results for the Bank or its subsidiaries.

IFRS 16 Leases. Extends the one-year term of Covid-19-related lease concessions.

In March 2021, the IASB published modifications to IFRS 16 that allow the accounting of concessions or rental facilities due to the effects of the pandemic declared by Covid-19 to be extended until June 30, 2022. The original amendment to IFRS 16 was issued in May 2020 and applied to lease contract facilities that reduce only lease payments due until June 30, 2021.

The implementation of this amendment did not have material impact on Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries.

Other instructions issued by the CMF - Letters to Management.

Treatment of provisions and other effects of financing under the FOGAPE Reactivation program.

1) By letter to Management dated April 23, 2021, the CMF reported transitory measures for the exceptional treatment of loan allowances in the commercial portfolio, in order to facilitate the implementation of payment alternatives for debtors who meet certain requirements.

The conditions for using the flexibility measures for the treatment of allowances are:

−

Fully evaluate the financial and credit condition of the debtors who will be eligible for the granting of the flexibilization conditions. It is not allowed to include debtors in default in accordance with the regulations.

−

Debtors who are up to date or have a default of no more than 30 days at the time of rescheduling.

−

Grace periods or postponement credits, of this measure or another, may not add up to more than 6 consecutive months.

−

Have special consideration with those debtors who have availed themselves of previous postponement measures, and must have demonstrated a good behavior in the payment of their installments during the period between postponements.

In the case of grace periods or postponement credits, and depending on the methodology used in accounting for provisions (standard or internal method) for the group portfolio, the computation of arrears and the expected loss parameters will remain constant until that the payment system is normalized. Once the payment deferral period has elapsed and if the debtor does not pay the next obligation to be due, it must be recognized in the next installment of default to the one found in the standard matrix or in the corresponding provision model at the time of flexibilization in order to recognize their credit risk.

In the case of debtors evaluated on an individual basis, their risk category will be maintained at the time of rescheduling until the payment regime is normalized, which does not prevent that for the grace periods and deferral credit from being reclassified to the corresponding category, in the event of signs of worsening in the debtor's ability to pay and other variables considered in the internal methods.

Postponements or rescheduling, in its different modalities, including those that allow to lower the financial burden of the debtors, as long as they comply with the indicated conditions, will not be considered forced renegotiations and therefore, will not lead to the classification of said debtors in default.

The validity of the exceptional period for the treatment of provisions is extended until July 31, 2021.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, continued

(Free translation of Consolidated Financial Statements originally issued in Spanish)

New Accounting Pronouncements, continued:

2) By letter to Management dated August 13, 2021, the CMF established that in consideration that the FOGAPE Reactivation Regulation was modified by Supreme Decree No. 254 dated June 26, 2021, allowing guaranteed financing to companies that file up to 89 days past due, to the extent that its annual sales are less than 25,000 UF, and may also contemplate grace periods, it is considered essential to distinguish the prudential treatment applicable to those operations that are granted under such conditions.

To determine the provisions of the amounts guaranteed by FOGAPE Reactivation applicable to those financing operations granted by banks under the new conditions indicated in the Regulations, the following treatment of provisions was established:

To determine the provisions for the amounts guaranteed by FOGAPE Reactivation, banks may consider substituting the credit quality of the debtors for that of FOGAPE, for all types of financing indicated, up to the amount covered by the referred guarantee. Naturally, the option to consider the risk attributable to FOGAPE may be made while said guarantee is in force, without considering the capitalized interest.

The computation of the provisions of the amount not covered by the guarantee, corresponding to the debtors, the treatment must be differentiated according to the level of arrears of the refinanced loan and the grace period, which must consider the cumulative consecutive months of grace between the refinanced credit and other previous measures. For this purpose, the following situations should be considered:

Refinancing with less than 60 days past due and less than 180 days of grace.

When the institution granting the refinancing is the current creditor, depending on the methodology used in accounting for provisions (standard or internal method) for the group portfolio, the computation of the default and the expected loss parameters will remain constant at the time of refinancing, as long as no payment is required.

In the case of debtors evaluated on an individual basis, their risk category will be maintained at the time of rescheduling, which does not prevent them from being reclassified to the corresponding category, due to a worsening of their payment capacity.

Refinancing between 60 and 89 days past due or grace periods greater than 180 days and less than 360 days.

The guidelines established in the previous point will be applied, and at least one of the following conditions must also be met:

The Bank in its credit granting policies consider at least the following aspects:

	a.	A robust procedure for the categorization of viable debtors, which take into account at least the sector and its solvency and liquidity situation.

Efficient mechanisms for monitoring the debtor's situation, with formally defined internal governance.

New Accounting Pronouncements, continued:

ii. Interest is charged in the months of grace, in accordance with the guidelines established in letter a) of Article 15 of the Regulations, or there is a demand for payment in another credit with the bank. In the latter case, if non-compliance is observed, the carry-over rules contained in numerals 2.2 and 3.2 of Chapter B-1 of the CNC must be considered, depending on whether it is a loan subject to individual or group evaluation, respectively.

Refinances with grace periods of more than 360 days.

The Bank must apply the provisions established in Chapter B-1 of the CNC, considering the operation as forced renegotiation and, therefore, apply the provisions that correspond to the portfolio in default.

Other regulations adopted.

Law No. 21,320

On April 20, 2021, Law No. 21,320 that modifies consumer protection law (Law No. 19,496), prohibiting and limiting certain extrajudicial debt collection actions was enacted. Among other matters, this new law (i) limits the number and type of out-of-court collection measures, (ii) requires keeping detailed records of such actions up to two years after they have been initiated, and (iii) prohibits continuing with out-of-court collection actions once a collection has been initiated in court.

Law No. 21,342

On June 1, 2021, Law No. 21,342 was published in the Official Newspaper, which established the obligation to implement an occupational health safety protocol for the gradual and safe return of employees to their workplace within the framework of the health alert decreed on the occasion of the Covid-19 disease. The aforementioned law established, among other matters, the obligation to contract mandatory insurance in favor of employees who carry out their work in-person, to finance or reimburse the costs of hospitalization and rehabilitation of the employees associated with the Covid-19 disease, in the terms and scope indicated in said standard. The implementation of this law had no material impact for Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries.

New standards and interpretations that have been issued but its date of application have not yet come into force:

The following is a summary of new standards, interpretations and improvements to the International Financial Reporting Standards issued by IASB that are not yet effective as of December 31, 2021, are detailed below:

Accounting standards issued by IASB.

IAS 28 — Investments in Associates and Joint Venture, and IFRS 10 — Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2014, the IASB published this modification, which clarifies the scope of the profits and losses recognized in a transaction that involves an associate or joint venture, and that this depends on whether the asset sold or contribution constitutes a business. Therefore, the IASB concluded that all gains or losses should be recognized against loss of control of a business.

In February 2021, the IASB published amendments to IAS 1 to require companies to disclose material information on accounting policies, the foregoing in order to improve the disclosures of their accounting policies and provide useful information to investors and other users of financial statements.

Prior to the amendment, there was some uncertainty as to whether the exemption applied to transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations, transactions for which companies recognize both an asset and a liability.

The amendments clarify that the exemption does not apply and that companies are required to recognize deferred taxes on such transactions. The purpose of the amendments is to reduce the diversity in reporting deferred tax on leases and decommissioning obligations.

Accounting standards issued by the CMF.

Circulars No. 2,243, No. 2,249 and N° 2,295 - Amends Compendium of Accounting Standards for Banks.

On December 20, 2019, the CMF published Circular No. 2,243, which updates the instructions of the Accounting Standards Compendium (CNC) for Banks.

The changes seek achieve greater convergence with IFRS, as well as an improvement in the quality of financial information, to contribute to the financial stability and transparency of the banking system.

The main changes introduced to the CNC correspond to:

1) Incorporation of IFRS 9 with the exception of the Chapter 5.5 on impairment of loans classified as “financial assets at amortized cost”. This exception is mainly due to prudential criteria set by the CMF. These criteria have given rise, over time, to the establishment of standard models that the banking institutions must apply to determine the impairment of the loan portfolio (Chapter B-1 of the CNC, for provisions).

2) Changes in the presentation formats of the Statement of Financial Position and Income Statement, when adopting IFRS 9 in replacement of IAS 39.

3) Incorporation of new presentation formats for the Statement of Other Comprehensive Income and the Statement of Changes in Equity and guidelines on financing and investment activities for the Statement of Cash Flows.

4) Incorporation of a financial report “Management Comments” (according to the IASB Practice Document No. 1), which will complement the information provided by the financial and annual statements.

5) Modifications of some notes of the financial statements, among which are: Financial assets at amortized cost and Risk management, in order to better comply with the disclosure criteria contained in the IFRS 7. In addition, disclosures about related parties are aligned according to IAS 24.

6) Changes in the accounting plan of Chapter C-3 of the CNC, both in the accounts coding as well as in their description. The foregoing corresponds to the detailed information of the formats for the Statement of Financial Position, the Income Statement and the Statement of Other Comprehensive Income.

New Accounting Pronouncements, continued:

7) Modification of the criteria for the suspension of the recognition of interest income and UF indexation on an accrual basis, for any credit with a default equal to or greater than 90 days (Chapter B-2 of the CNC).

Pursuant to the regulations described above, the Bank's Management determined to implement in advance during the year 2021 the rule of suspension of the recognition of interest and UF indexation on an accrual basis at 90 days of default, which did not have a significant impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. It should be noted that before the change, the suspension of the recognition of interest income and UF indexation for loans evaluated as a group occurred at 6 months of default, while for loans subject to individual evaluation; the suspension was carried out based on to the classification of the client and its permanence in the impaired portfolio.

8) Adaptation of the limitations and precisions to the use of IFRS contained in Chapter A-2 of the CNC.

In accordance with that established under the Circular No. 2,249 dated April 20, 2020, the new standard will be applicable from January 1, 2022, with a transition date of January 1, 2021, for purposes of the comparative Financial Statements that must be published from March 2022. Nevertheless, the change in criteria for the suspension of the recognition of interest income and UF indexation on an accrual basis as provided in Chapter B-2, shall be adopted no later than January 1, 2022.

On October 7, 2021, the CMF issued Circular No. 2,295, which updates the Compendium of Accounting Standards for Banks (CNCB) that is in force from 2022 and introduces various adjustments to the files of the Information System Manual.

In this way, the accounting information necessary to agree the Financial Statements with the full implementation of Basel III is incorporated, in addition to making some clarifications in its instructions, arising both from the internal analysis and from inquiries received from actors of the banking system.

Likewise, this Circular adds a term to implement the criterion for grouping debtors whose aggregate exposure must be measured jointly, established in literal i) of No. 3 of Chapter B-1, which must be considered as of July 1, 2022.

The modifications introduced in files, tables and forms of the Manual of the Information System for Banks, they must be considered based on the information referred to the month of January 2022.

The Bank and its subsidiaries have structured an implementation project and have established various Committees to ensure its proper execution. All this in order to comply with the new standards required for the preparation and presentation of the Financial Statements.

The main equity effects measured as of January 1, 2022 correspond to the valuation of financial assets due to the adoption of IFRS 9 in replacement of IAS 39, in provisions for contingent loans because of the modification of the Credit Conversion Factor (CCF) and in deferred taxes associated with these modifications. The foregoing generated an increase in equity for an approximate net amount of Ch$70,508 million.

Relevant Events, continued:

Financial Statements, more than 89% of the target population has completed their vaccination process, also beginning from the month of August the process of inoculation of a booster dose and in January 2022 a second booster dose.

The Government and the Central Bank of Chile have maintained countercyclical measures, which have contributed to a gradual recovery in activity. At the fiscal level, the government has implemented direct measures close to 10 points of GDP, which has been complemented by other indirect measures (including resources to finance Fogape-Covid credits and the employment protection law, among others). On February 3, 2021, Law No. 21,307 was published in the official newspaper, which modifies the Guarantee Fund for Small and Medium-sized Entrepreneurs (Fogape) in order to promote the reactivation and recovery of the economy, which modifies the Decree Law No. 3,472, of 1980, of the Ministry of Finance, which creates the Guarantee Fund for Small Entrepreneurs (Reactive Fogape). Since the beginning of the program and until December 31, 2021, the Bank has carried out 27,087 operations for an aggregate amount of Ch$1,285,479 million.

For its part, the Central Bank of Chile has maintained a series of unconventional measures, among which the establishment of the Loan Increase Conditional Credit Facility program (FCIC by its Spanish initials) a special financial line for banking companies complemented with the activation of a “Liquidity Credit Line” (LCL) and purchases of bonds in the financial market, among others. As of December 31, 2021, the Bank has made use of these financing facilities for an amount of Ch$4,348,460 million (Ch$3,110,600 million as of December 31, 2020). To access the FCIC, the Bank has established guarantees in favor of the Central Bank of Chile for a total amount of approximately Ch$3,665,592 million, corresponding to commercial placements of the individual portfolio of high credit quality for Ch$3,024,118 million, and securities of fixed income for an approximate amount of Ch$641,474 million. In the case of the LCL, the guarantee provided corresponds to the reserve held by the Bank.

Additionally, the National Congress approved three reforms to the Political Constitution of the Republic that allowed withdrawals of up to 10% of the resources available in individual capitalization accounts, which allowed an aggregate withdrawal that exceeded US$55,000 million in the fourth quarter, in addition during the year 2020 the Law was approved that established an Emergency Family Income (IFE) that corresponds to a benefit for vulnerable families making transfers that accumulate more than US$25,000 million. All these resources generated significant pressure on the prices of goods and services, increases in long-term interest rates, increased liquidity levels of natural and legal persons, and decreased default levels of the banking industry with respect to the default levels observed prior to the start of the pandemic. As a result of the significant increase in the inflation rate, the Central Bank increased the Monetary Policy Rate by 350 basis points during the second semester, placing it at 4.0% at the end of the year.

Even though the impact of the pandemic on our operating results has been significant and its effects will persist over time, its magnitude will depend on the duration and depth of the consequent effects generated, as well as the impact on structural variables, including the trend growth of the economy, levels of investment and employment. Additionally, in accordance with the current policy on the matter, the Bank has established additional incremental provisions for Ch$220,000 million during this fiscal year, thus totaling Ch$540,252 million as of December 31, 2021.

Business Segments, continued:

The financial information used to measure the performance of the Bank’s business segments is not comparable with similar information from other financial institutions because each institution relies on its own definitions. The accounting policies applied to the segments is the same as those described in the summary of accounting principles. The Bank obtains the majority of the results for: interest, indexation and commissions and financial operations and changes, discounting provisions for credit risk and operating expenses. Management is mainly based on these concepts to evaluate the performance of the segments and make decisions about the goals and allocations of resources of each unit. Although the results of the segments reconcile with those of the Bank at the total level, this is not necessarily the case in terms of the different concepts, given that management is measured and controlled individually and not on a consolidated basis, applying the following criteria:

The net interest margin of loans and deposits is obtained aggregating the net financial margins of each individual operation of credit and uptake made by the bank. For these purposes, the volume of each operation and its contribution margin are considered, which in turn corresponds to the difference between the effective rate of the customer and the internal transfer price established according to the term and currency of each operation. Additionally, the net margin includes the result of interest and indexation from the accounting hedges.

Provisions for credit risk are determined at the customer level based on the characteristics of each of their operations. In the case of additional provisions, these are assigned to the different business segments based on the credit risk weighted assets that each segment has

The capital and its financial impacts on outcome have been assigned to each segment based on the risk-weighted assets.

Operational expenses are reflected at the level of the different functional areas of the Bank. The allocation of expenses from functional areas to business segments is done using different allocation criteria, at the level of the different concepts and expense items.

Taxes are managed at a corporate level and are not allocated to business segments.

For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 there was no income from transactions with a customer or counterparty that accounted for 10% or more of the Bank's total revenues.

Derivative Instruments and Accounting Hedges, continued:

(b)

Fair value Hedges:

The Bank uses cross-currency swaps and interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged elements attributable to interest rates in financial instruments or loans. The aforementioned hedge instruments change the effective cost of long-term assets from a fixed interest rate to a floating rate, decreasing the duration and modifying the sensitivity to the shortest segments of the curve.

Below is a detail of the hedged elements and instruments under fair value hedges as of December 31, 2021 and 2020:

	2021		2020
	MCh$		MCh$

Commercial loans		1,788		5,031
Corporate bonds		—		29,508

Hedge instrument
Cross currency swap		1,788		5,031
Interest rate swap		—		29,508

(c)

Cash flow Hedges:

(c.1)

The Bank uses cross currency swaps to hedge the risk from variability of cash flows attributable to changes in the interest rates and foreign exchange of foreign banks obligations and bonds issued abroad in US Dollars, Hong Kong dollars, Swiss Franc, Japanese Yens, Peruvian Sol, Australian Dollars, Euros and Norwegian kroner. The cash flows of the cross currency swaps equal the cash flows of the hedged items, which modify uncertain cash flows to known cash flows derived from a fixed interest rate.

Additionally, these cross currency swap contracts used to hedge the risk from variability of the Unidad de Fomento (“CLF”) in assets flows denominated in CLF until a nominal amount equal to the portion notional of the hedging instrument CLF, whose readjustment impact the item “Interest Revenue” of the Income Financial Statements.

Provision for minimum dividends:

The Board of Directors of Banco de Chile agreed for the purposes of minimum dividends, to establish a provision of 60% of the net income resulting from reducing or adding to the net income for the corresponding year, the value effect of the monetary unit of paid capital and reserves, as a result of any change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) between the month prior to the current month and the month of November of the previous year. The amount to be reduced of the liquid income for the year ended as of December 31, 2021 amounted to Ch$253,094 million (Ch$95,989 million as of December 31, 2020).

As indicated, as of December 31, 2021, the amount of the net income determined in accordance with the preceding paragraph is equivalent to Ch$539,828 million (Ch$367,119 million as of December 31, 2020). Consequently, the Bank recorded a provision for minimum dividends under “Provisions” as of December 31, for an amount of Ch$323,897 million (Ch$220,271 million in December 2020), which reflects as a counterpart an equity reduction for the same amount in the item “Retained earnings”.

Earnings per share:

(i)

Basic earnings per share:

Basic earnings per share are determined by dividing the net income attributable to the Bank ordinary equity holders in a year between the weighted average number of shares outstanding during that year, excluding the average number of own shares held throughout the period.

(ii)

Diluted earnings per share:

In order to calculate the diluted earnings per share, both the amount of income attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding, net of own shares, must be adjusted for all the inherent dilutive effects to the potential common shares (stock options, warrants and convertible debt).

During the year 2021 it was made a credit to equity for Ch$182,376 million (credit to equity of Ch$10,358 million in 2020). The income tax effect presented a charge to equity of Ch$49,241 million (charge of Ch$2,797 million in December 2020).

The valuation adjustment of investments available for sale originates from fluctuations in the fair value of such portfolio, with a charge or credit to equity. During the year 2021, it was made a charge to equity for Ch$109,930 million (charge of Ch$3,026 million during the year 2020). The deferred tax effect meant a credit to equity of Ch$4,118 million (credit to equity of Ch$816 million in December 2020).

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities:

Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries have defined a corporate framework for valuation and control related with the process to the fair value measurement.

Within the established framework includes the Product Control Unit, which is independent of the business areas and reports to the Financial Management and Control Division Manager. This function befall to the Financial Control, Treasury and Capital Manager, through the Financial Risk Information and Control Section, is responsible for independent verification of price and results of trading (including derivatives) and investment operations and all fair value measurements.

To achieve the appropriate measurements and controls, the Bank and its subsidiaries, take into account at least the following aspects:

(i)

Industry standard valuation.

To value financial instruments, Banco de Chile uses industry standard modeling; quota value, share price, discounted cash flows and valuation of options through Black-Scholes-Merton, according to the case. The input parameters for the valuation correspond to rates, prices and levels of volatility for different terms and market factors that are traded in the national and international market and that are provided by the main sources of the market.

(ii)

Quoted prices in active markets.

The fair value for instruments with quoted prices in active markets is determined using daily quotes from electronic systems information (such as Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago, Bloomberg, LVA and Risk America, etc). This quote represents the price at which these instruments are regularly traded in the financial markets.

(iii)

Valuation techniques.

If no specific quotes are available for the instrument to be valued, valuation techniques will be used to determine the fair value.

Due to, in general, the valuation models require a set of market parameters as inputs, the aim is to maximize information based on observable or price-related quotations for similar instruments in active markets. To the extent there is no information in direct from the markets, data from external suppliers of information, prices of similar instruments and historical information are used to validate the valuation parameters.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

(iv)

Fair value adjustments.

Part of the fair value process considers three adjustments to the market value, calculated based on the market parameters, including; a liquidity adjustment, a Bid/Offer adjustment and an adjustment is made for credit risk of derivatives (CVA and DVA). The calculation of the liquidity adjustment considers the size of the position in each factor, the particular liquidity of each factor, the relative size of Banco de Chile with respect to the market, and the liquidity observed in transactions recently carried out in the market. In turn, the Bid/Offer adjustment, represents the impact on the valuation of an instrument depending on whether the position corresponds to a long (bought) or a short (sold).To calculate this adjustment is used the direct quotes from active markets or indicative prices or derivatives of similar assets depending on the instrument, considering the Bid, Mid and Offer, respectively. Finally, the adjustment made for CVA and DVA for derivatives corresponds to the credit risk recognition of the issuer, either of the counterparty (CVA) or of Banco de Chile (DVA).

Liquidity value adjustments are made to trading instruments (including derivatives) only, while Bid / Offer adjustments are made for trading instruments and available for sale. Adjustments for CVA / DVA are carried out only for derivatives.

(v)

Fair value control.

A process of independent verification of prices and interest rates is executed daily, in order to control that the market parameters used by Banco de Chile in the valuation of the financial instruments relating to the current state of the market and from them the best estimate derived of the fair value. The objective of this process is to control that the official market parameters provided by the respective business areas, before being entered into the valuation, are within acceptable ranges of differences when compared to the same set of parameters prepared independently by the Financial Risk Information and Control Section. As a result, value differences are obtained at the level of currency, product and portfolio. In the event significant differences exist, these differences are scaled according to the amount of individual materiality of each market factor and aggregated at the portfolio level, according to the grouping levels within previously defined ranges. These ranges are approved by the Finance, International and Financial Risk Committee.

Complementary and in parallel, the Financial Risk Information and Control Section generates and reports on a daily basis Profit and Loss (“P&L”) and Exposure to Market Risks, which allow for proper control and consistency of the parameters used in the valuation.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

(vi)

Judgmental analysis and information to Management.

In particular cases, where there are no market quotations for the instrument to be valued and there are no prices for similar transactions instruments or indicative parameters, a specific control and a reasoned analysis must be carried out in order to estimate the fair value of the operation. Within the valuation framework described in the Reasonable Value Policy (and its procedure) approved by the Board of Directors of Banco de Chile, a required level of approval is set in order to carry out transactions where market information is not available or it is not possible to infer prices or rates from it.

(a)

Hierarchy of instrument valued at Fair value:

Banco de Chile and its subsidiaries, classify all the financial instruments among the following levels:

Level 1:

These are financial instruments whose fair value is calculated at quoted prices (unadjusted) in extracted from liquid and deep markets. For these instruments there are quotes or prices (return internal rates, quote value, price) the observable market, so that assumptions are not required to determine the value.

In this level, the following instruments are considered: currency futures, debt instruments issued by the Treasury and the Central Bank of Chile, which belong to benchmarks, mutual fund investments and equity shares.

For the instruments of the Central Bank of Chile and the General Treasury of the Republic, all those mnemonics belonging to a Benchmark, in other words corresponding to one of the following categories published by the Santiago Stock Exchange, will be considered as Level 1: Pesos-02, Pesos-03, Pesos-04, Pesos-05, Pesos-07, Pesos-10, UF-02, UF-04, UF-05, UF-07, UF-10, UF-20, UF-30. A Benchmark corresponds to a group of mnemonics that are similar in duration and are traded in an equivalent way, i.e., the price (return internal rates in this case) obtained is the same for all the instruments that make up a Benchmark. This feature defines a greater depth of market, with daily quotations that allow classifying these instruments as Level 1.

In the case of debt issued by the Chilean Government, the internal rate of return of the market is used to discount all flows to present value. In the case of mutual funds and equity shares, the current market price per share, which multiplied by the number of instruments results in the fair value.

The preceding described valuation methodology is equivalent to the one used by the Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago (Santiago Stock Exchange) and correspond to the standard methodology used in the market.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

Level2:

They are financial instruments whose fair value is calculated based on prices other than in quoted in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, directly (that is, as prices or internal rates of return) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices or internal rates of return from similar instruments). These categories include:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Inputs data other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

Inputs data corroborated by the market.

At this level there are mainly derivatives instruments, debt issued by banks, debt issues of Chilean and foreign companies, issued in Chile or abroad, mortgage claims, financial brokerage instruments and some issuances by the Central Bank of Chile and the General Treasury of the Republic, which do not belong to benchmarks.

To value derivatives, depends on whether they are impacted by volatility as a relevant market factor in standard valuation methodologies; for options the Black-Scholes-Merton formula is used; for the rest of the derivatives, forwards and swaps, discounted cash flows method is used.

For the remaining instruments at this level, as for debt issues of level 1, the valuation is done through cash flows model by using an internal rate of return that can be derived or estimated from internal rates of return of similar securities as mentioned above.

In the event that there is no observable price for an instrument in a specific term, the price will be inferred from the interpolation between periods that have observable quoted price in active markets. These models incorporate various market variables, including the credit quality of counterparties, exchange rates and interest rate curves.

Level 3:

These are financial instruments whose fair value is determined using non-observable inputs data neither for the assets or liabilities under analysis nor for similar instruments. An adjustment to an input that is significant to the entire measurement can result in a fair value measurement classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if the adjustment uses significant non-observable data entry.

The instruments likely to be classified as level 3 are mainly Corporate Debt by Chilean and foreign companies, issued both in Chile and abroad.

Valuation Techniques and Inputs for Level 3 Instrument:

Type of Financial Instrument	Valuation Method	Description: Inputs and Sources
Local Bank and Corporate Bonds	Discounted cash flows model	Since inputs for these types of securities are not observable by the market, we model interest rate of returns for them based on a Base Yield (Central Bank Bonds) and issuer spread. These inputs (base yield and issuer spread) are provided on a daily basis by third party price providers that are widely used in the Chilean market.

Offshore Bank and Corporate Bonds	Discounted cash flows model	Since inputs for these types of securities are not observable by the market, we model interest rate of returns for them based on a Base Yield (US-Libor) and issuer spread. These inputs (base yield and issuer spread) are provided on a weekly basis by third party price providers that are widely used in the Chilean market.

With the purpose of determining the sensitivity of the financial investments to changes in significant market factors, the Bank has made alternative calculations at fair value, changing those key parameters for the valuation and which are not directly observable in screens. In the case of the financial assets listed in the table above, which correspond to Bank Bonds and Corporate Bonds, it was considered that, since there are no current observables prices, the input prices will be based on brokers’ quotes. The prices are usually calculated as a base rate plus a spread. For Local Bonds it was determined to apply a 10% impact on the price, while for the Off Shore Bonds (associated with national issuers as of December 31, 2021 and 2020) it was determined to apply a 10% impact only on the spread, since the base rate is covered by interest rate swaps instruments in the so-called accounting hedges. The 10% impact is considered reasonable, taking into account the market performance of these instruments and comparing it against the bid / offer adjustment that is provisioned by these instruments.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities, continued:

(f)

Levels of other assets and liabilities, continued:

The Bank determines the fair value of these assets and liabilities according to the following:

●

Short-term assets and liabilities: For assets and liabilities with short-term maturity, it is assumed that the book values approximate to their fair value. This assumption is applied to the following assets and liabilities:

Assets:		Liabilities:

-	Cash and deposits in banks	-	Current accounts and other demand deposits
-	Transactions in the course of collection	-	Transactions in the course of payments
-	Investments under resale agreements	-	Obligations under repurchase agreements
-	Loans and advance to domestic banks

●

Loans to Customers and Advance to foreign banks: Fair value is determined by using the discounted cash flow model and internally generated discount rates, based on internal transfer rates derived from our internal transfer price process. Once the present value is determined, we deduct the related loan loss allowances in order to incorporate the credit risk associated with each contract or loan. As we use internally generated parameters for valuation purposes, we categorize these instruments in Level 3.

●

Investment Instruments Until Maturity: The fair value is calculated with the methodology of the Stock Exchange, using the IRR observed in the market. Because the instruments that are in this category correspond to Treasury Bonds that are Benchmark, they are classified in Level 1.

●

Letters of Credit and Bonds: In order to determine the present value of contractual cash flows, we apply the discounted cash flow model by using market interest rates that are available in the market, either for the instruments under valuation or instruments with similar features that fit valuation needs in terms of currency, maturities and liquidity. The market interest rates are obtained from third party price providers widely used by the market. As a result of the valuation technique and the quality of inputs (observable) used for valuation, we categorize these financial liabilities in Level 2.

●

Saving Accounts, Time Deposits, Borrowings from Financial Institutions, Subordinated Bonds and Other borrowings financial: The discounted cash flow model is used to obtain the present value of committed cash flows by applying a bucket approach and average adjusted discount rates that derived from both market rates for instruments with similar features and our internal transfer price process. As we use internally generated parameters and/or apply significant judgmental analysis for valuation purposes, we categorize these financial liabilities in Level 3.

Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities:

The Bank trades financial derivatives with foreign counterparties using ISDA Master Agreement (International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.), under legal jurisdiction of the City of New York – USA or London – United Kingdom. Legal framework in these jurisdictions, along with documentation mentioned, it allows Banco de Chile the right to anticipate the maturity of the transaction and then, offset the net value of those transactions in case of default of counterparty. Additionally, the Bank has negotiated with these counterparties an additional annex (CSA Credit Support Annex), that includes other credit mitigating, such as entering margins on a certain amount of net value of transactions, early termination (optional or mandatory) of transactions at certain dates in the future, coupon adjustment of transaction in exchange for payment of the debtor counterpart over a certain threshold amount, etc.

Below are detail the contracts susceptible to offset:

Measurement Methodology

Regarding to Credit Risk, provision levels and portfolio expenses are the basic measures for determining the credit quality of our portfolio.

Banco de Chile permanently evaluates its loan portfolio, timely recognizing the associated level of risk of the loan portfolio. For this, there are specific guidelines for the development of provision models under local regulations in accordance with the instructions issued by the CMF, as well as under IFRS 9 and stress tests; these guidelines and the models developed are approved by the Board of Directors.

As a result of this evaluation, on both individual and group portfolios, the level of provisions that the bank should constitute is determined, in the event of customers payment default.

The individual evaluation mainly applies to the Bank's portfolio of legal persons that, due to their size, complexity or indebtedness, requires a more detailed level of knowledge and a case-by-case analysis. Each debtor is assigned one of the 16 risk categories defined by the CMF, in order to establish the provisions in a timely and appropriate manner. The review of the portfolio risk classifications is carried out permanently considering the financial situation, payment behavior and the environment of each client.

The group evaluation mainly applies to the portfolio of natural persons and smaller companies. These assessments are carried out monthly through statistical models that allow estimating the level of provisions necessary to cover the portfolio risk. The consistency analysis of the models is carried out through an independent validation of the unit that develops them and, subsequently, through the analysis of retrospective tests that allow to compare the real losses with the expected ones.

During 2021, the Bank maintained prudential adjustments to the provisioning models made in 2020, in particular to its Probability of Default (PD) parameters, following a conservative and prospective approach in this regard. Also, in December a new update of the parameters of the internal models of provisions was carried out.

In order to validate the quality and robustness of the risk assessment processes, the Bank annually performs a test of the sufficiency of provisions for the total loan portfolio, thus verifying that the provisions established are sufficient to cover the losses that could derive from the credit operations granted. The result of this analysis is presented to the Board of Directors, who manifests itself on the sufficiency of the provisions in each fiscal year.

Banco de Chile has additional provisions with the objective of protecting itself from the risk of unpredictable economic fluctuations that may affect the macroeconomic environment or the situation of a specific economic sector. At least once a year, the amount of additional provisions to be constituted or released is annually proposed to the Portfolio Risk Committee and subsequently to the Board of Directors for approval.

Measurement Methodology, continued:

In this context, during 2021 the Bank constituted additional provisions taking into account various prospective analyzes regarding the impacts derived from the pandemic, among them: effects of the measures adopted by local and global health authorities for its mitigation, expectations of deterioration of the cycle and local macroeconomic projections of variables such as unemployment and economic growth.

The monitoring and control of risks are carried out mainly based on limits established by the Board of Directors. These limits reflect the Bank's business and market strategy, as well as the level of risk that it is willing to accept, with additional emphasis on the selected industries.

The Bank develops its capital planning process in an integrated manner with its strategic planning, in line with the risks inherent to its activity, the economic and competitive environment, its business strategy, corporate values, as well as its governance, management and risk control. As part of the capital planning process and, in line with what is required by the regulator, it has incorporated the new calculations of Risk-Weighted Assets and stress tests in the dimensions of credit, market and operational risk, as well as the Comprehensive Measurement of financial and non-financial risks.

Along with the above, during 2021, the Bank updated its Risk Appetite Framework, through which it is possible to identify, evaluate, measure, mitigate and control proactively and in advance all relevant risks that could materialize in the normal course of their business. To this end, the Bank uses different management tools and defines an adequate structure of alerts and limits, which are part of said Framework, which allow it to constantly monitor the performance of different indicators and implement timely corrective actions, in the event that are required. The result of these activities is part of the annual self-assessment report of effective equity that is reported to the CMF.

Credit Risk:

Credit risk considers the likelihood that the counterparty in the credit operation will not be able to fulfill its contractual obligation due to incapacity or financial insolvency, and this leads to a potential credit loss.

The Bank seeks an adequate risk-return relation and an appropriate balance of the risks assumed, through a permanent credit risk management considering the processes of admission, monitoring and recovery of the loans granted. Likewise, it continuously manages risk knowledge, from a comprehensive approach, in order to contribute to the business and anticipate threats that could damage the solvency, quality of the portfolio, permeating a unique risk culture towards the Corporation.

The foregoing has the permanent challenge of establishing a risk management framework for the different business segments served by the Bank, responding to regulatory requirements and commercial dynamism, being part of the digital transformation, and contributing from the perspective of risks to the various businesses addressed, through a vision of the portfolio that allows managing, resolving and controlling the business approval process efficiently and proactively.

In the business segments, the application of additional management processes is taken into consideration, to the extent required, for those financing requests that that will have a greater exposure to environmental and/or social risks.

In this respect, the Bank integrates the socio-environmental criteria in its evaluations for the granting of financing destined to the development of projects, whether national or regional and that can generate an impact of this type, where they are executed. For the financing of projects, they must have the corresponding permits, authorizations, patents and studies, according to the impact they generate. In addition, the Bank has specialized units for serving large clients, through which the financing of project development is concentrated, including those of Public Works concessions that contemplate the construction of infrastructure, mining, electrical, real estate developments that can generate an environmental impact.

Credit policies and processes materialize in the following management principles, which are addressed with a specialized approach according to the characteristics of the different markets and segments served, recognizing the singularities of each one of them:

Apply a rigorous evaluation in the admission process, based on established credit policies, standards and procedures, together with the availability of sufficient and accurate information. Thus, it corresponds to analyze the generation of flows and solvency of the client to meet their payment commitments and, when the characteristics of the operation merit it, must constitute adequate collateral that allow mitigating the risk incurred with the client.

Credit Risk, continued:

Have permanent and robust portfolio tracking processes, through systems that alert both the potential signs of impairment of clients, with respect to the conditions of origin. That they also alert possible business opportunities with those that present a better payments quality and behavior.

To develop credit risk modeling guidelines, both in regulatory aspects (provisions, capital, stress tests) and management (admission, management, collection), for efficient decision-making at different stages of the credit process.

Have a collection structure with timely, agile and effective processes that allow management to be carried out in accordance with the different types of clients and the types of breaches that arise, always in strict adherence to the regulatory framework and the Bank's reputational definitions.

Maintain an efficient administration in work teams organization, tools and availability of information that allow an optimal credit risk management.

Based on these management principles, the credit risk divisions contribute to the business and anticipate threats that may affect the solvency and quality of the portfolio. In particular, during the years 2020 and 2021 the solidity of these principles and the role of credit risk have made it possible to respond adequately to the challenges derived from the pandemic, providing timely responses to clients while maintaining the solid fundamentals that characterize the Bank's portfolio in its different segments and products.

In continuity with the previous year, various measures to support clients have been implemented, such as participation in the loan program associated with the Fogape Fund - Reactivation, Law No. 21,299 on the postponement of mortgage loan installments and relaxation of collection, among others, with the aim of temporarily making payment conditions more flexible and supporting clients with new facilities to cover their needs arising from the existing health contingency.

Within the framework of risk management, during this year, a permanent and focused monitoring of the portfolios and the results of the temporary measures implemented has continued.

For the development and strengthening of a risk culture in the Bank, during 2021 the training and education of executives has been promoted, diffusing risk knowledge from a comprehensive perspective. It is with this in matters of environmental and social risks, training has been carried out for commercial and risk company executives to further ensure that these factors and their impacts are taken into account in the credit analysis and evaluation processes. Specifically, employees from various areas were trained in the Socio-environmental Risk Analysis course taught by the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI).

Retail Segments:

In these segments, admission management is carried out mainly through a risk evaluation that uses scoring tools and an adequate credit attribution model to approve each operation. These evaluations take into consideration the level of indebtedness, payment capacity and the maximum acceptable exposure for the client.

For these segments, the Bank’s risk functions are segregated and distributed in the following areas:

−

Retail Admission and Regulatory Area, performs the evaluation of operations and clients, with specialization by products and segments. Maintains a framework of policies and standards that ensure the quality of the portfolio according to the desired risk, defining guidelines for the admission of clients and their respective parameterization in the evaluation systems. These definitions are released to commercial and risk areas through programs and continuous training, and their application is monitored through credit review processes.

−

Model Area, is responsible for developing, maintaining and updating credit risk models, whether for regulatory or management uses, in accordance with local and international regulations, determining the most appropriate functional specifications and statistical techniques for the development of the required models. These models are validated by the Model Validation Area and presented to the corresponding government bodies, such as the “Technical Committee for the Supervision and Development of Internal Models”, the Portfolio Risk Committee or the Board of Directors, as appropriate.

−

Retail Tracking and Models Area, is in charge of measuring the behavior of portfolios especially through the monitoring of the main indicators of the aggregate portfolio and the analysis of layers, reported in management reports, generating relevant information for decision-making in different instances defined. Also, special follow-ups are generated according to relevant events in the environment.

This Area also ensures that the different strategies executed meet the risk quality objectives that determined their implementation. Additionally, through the model monitoring function, they monitor the risk models, ensuring compliance with the defined standards to ensure their predictive and discriminating power, identifying the possible associated risks.

−

Models Validation Area, is responsible for performs an independent review of the credit and treasury risk models, both in the construction and implementation stages. It considers the validation of compliance with the guidelines established by the Board of Directors, addressing aspects such as governance, data quality, modeling and implementation techniques, and documentation. The results of the review are presented and placed in consideration of the respective Committees, as appropriate.

Retail Segments, continued:

−

Collection Area performs a cross-collection management in the Bank and centralizes recovery management in retail segments through Socofin, Bank’s subsidiary. Define refinancing criteria and payment agreements with customers, maintaining an adequate risk-return ratio, together with the incorporation of robust tools for a differentiated collection management according to the institutional policies.

Wholesale Segments:

In these segments, admission management is carried out through an individual evaluation of the client and the relationship of the rest of the group with the Bank is also considered if it belongs to a group of companies. This individual evaluation - and group if applicable - considers, among others, generation capacity, financial capacity with emphasis on equity solvency, exposure levels, industry variables, evaluation of partners and management, and aspects of the operation such as financing structure, term, products and possible collaterals.

The indicated evaluation is supported by a rating model that allows greater homogeneity in the evaluation of the client and his group. This evaluation also includes specialized areas in some segments that by their nature require expert knowledge, such as real estate, construction, agriculture, financial, international, among others.

In a centralized manner, a permanent monitoring of the portfolio is carried at the individual level off business segments and economic sectors, based on periodically updated information from both the client and the industry. Through this process, alerts are generated that ensure the correct and timely recognition of the risk of the individual portfolio and the special conditions established in the admission stage are monitored, such as controls of financial covenants, coverage of certain collaterals and conditions imposed at the time of approval.

Additionally, within the Admission areas, joint monitoring tasks are carried out that allow monitoring the development of operations from their gestation to their recovery, with the aim of ensuring the correct and timely identification of portfolio risks, and to manage in advance those cases with higher risk levels.

Upon detection of clients that show signs of impairment or default with any condition, the commercial area to which the client belongs, together with the Wholesale Credit Risk Division, establish action plans for their regularization. In those more complex cases where specialized management is required, the Special Assets Management area, belonging to the Wholesale Credit Risk Division, is directly in charge of collection management, establishing action plans and negotiations based on the particular characteristics of each client.

Collaterals and Other Credit Enhancements:

The amount and type of collateral required depends on the counterparty’s credit risk assessment.

The Bank has guidelines regarding the acceptability of types of collateral and valuation parameters.

The main types of collateral obtained are:

●

For commercial loans: Residential and non-residential real estate, liens and inventory.

●

For retail loans: Mortgages loans on residential property.

The Bank also obtains collateral from parent companies for loans granted to their subsidiaries.

Management makes sure its collateral is acceptable according to both external standards and internal policies guidelines and parameters. The Bank has approximately 242,870 collateral assets (240,087 in December 2020), the majority of which consist of real estate. The following table contains guarantees value as of December 31:

The Bank also uses mitigating tactics for credit risk on derivative transactions. To date, the following mitigating tactics are used:

●

Accelerating transactions and net payment using market values at the date of default of one of the parties.

●

Option for both parties to terminate early any transactions with a counterparty at a given date, using market values as of the respective date.

●

Margins established with time deposits by customers who have FX forwards with subsidiary Banchile Corredores de Bolsa S.A.

The value of the guarantees that the Bank maintains related to the loans individually classified as impaired as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 amounted Ch$28,189 million and Ch$98,653 million, respectively.

The value guarantees related to past due loans but no impaired as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 amounted Ch$177,169 million and Ch$133,949 million respectively.

(e)

Credit Quality by Asset Class:

The Bank determines the credit quality of financial assets using internal credit ratings. The rating process is linked to the Bank’s approval and monitoring processes and is carried out in accordance with risk categories established by current standards. Credit quality is continuously updated based on any favorable or unfavorable developments to customers or their environments, considering aspects such as commercial and payment behavior as well as financial information.

The Bank also conducts reviews of companies in certain industry sectors that are affected by macroeconomic or sector-specific variables. Such reviews allow the Bank to timely establish any necessary allowance loan losses that are sufficient to cover losses for potentially uncollectable loans.

Market Risk:

Market Risk refers to the loss that the Bank could face due to a liquidity shortage to honor the payments, or to close financial transactions in a timely manner (Liquidity Risk), or due to adverse movements in the values of market variables (Risk Price).

(a) Liquidity Risk:

Liquidity Risk Measurement and Limits

The Bank manages the Liquidity Risk separately for each sub-category: Trading Liquidity Risk and Funding Liquidity Risk.

Trading Liquidity Risk is the inability to close, at current market prices, the financial positions opened mainly from the Trading Book (which is daily valued at market prices and the value differences instantly reflected in the Income Statement). This risk is controlled by establishing limits on the positions amounts of the Trading Book in accordance with what is estimated to be closed in a short time period. Additionally, the Bank incorporates a negative impact on the Income Statement whenever it considers that the size of a certain position in the Trading Book exceeds the reasonable amount, negotiated in the secondary markets, which would allow the exposure to be offset without altering market prices.

Funding Liquidity Risk refers to the Bank's inability to obtain sufficient cash to meet its immediate obligations. This risk is managed by a minimum amount of highly liquid assets called liquidity buffer, and establishing limits and controls of internal metrics, among which the Market Access Report (“MAR”) stands out, which estimates the amount of funding that the Bank would need from wholesale financial counterparties, for the next 30 and 90 days in each of the relevant currencies of the balance sheet, to face a cash need as a result of the operation under business as usual conditions.

The use of MAR within year 2021 is illustrated below (LCCY = local currency; FCCY = foreign currency):

	MAR LCCY + FCCY MMM$				MAR FCCY MMUS$
	1 - 30 days		1 - 90 days		1 - 30 days		1 - 90 days

Maximum		1,290		3,765		1,550		2,712
Minimum		-1,530		647		-866		238
Average		130		2,330		208		1,271

The bank also monitors the amount of assets denominated in local currency that is funded by liabilities denominated in foreign currency, including all tenors and the cash flows generated by full delivery derivatives payments. This metric is referred to as Cross Currency Funding. The bank oversees and limits this amount in order to take precautions against not only Banco de Chile’s event but also against a systemic adverse environment generated by a country risk event that might trigger lack of foreign currency funding.

The use of Cross Currency Funding within year 2021 is illustrated below:

	Cross Currency Funding MMUS$

Maximum		3,637
Minimum		1,446
Average		2,582

The Bank establishes thresholds that alert behaviors outside the expected ranges at a normal or prudent level of operation, in order to protect other dimensions of liquidity risk such as, for example, maturities concentration of fund providers, the diversification of sources of funds either by type of counterparty or type of product, among others.

The evolution over time of the Bank's financial ratios that can detect structural changes in its balance sheet characteristics is monitored, such as those presented in the following table and whose relevant use values during the year 2021 are shown below:

	Liquid Assets/ Net Funding <30 days			Liabilities>1 year/ Assets >1 year			Deposits/ Loans

Maximum		216	%		106	%		72	%
Minimum		161	%		92	%		65	%
Average		192	%		97	%		68	%

Additionally, some market index, prices and monetary decisions taken by the Central Bank of Chile are monitored to detect structural changes in market conditions that can trigger a liquidity shortage or even a financial crisis.

Liquidity Risk, continued:

Furthermore, the Liquidity Risk Management Policy enforces to perform stress tests periodically which are controlled against potentially accessible action plans in each modeled scenario, according with the guidelines established in the Liquidity Contingency Plan. This process is essential in determining the liquidity risk appetite framework of the institution.

The Bank measures and controls the mismatch of cash flows under regulatory standards with the C46 index report, which represents the net cash flows expected over time as a result of the contractual maturity of almost all assets and liabilities. Additionally, the Commission for the Financial Market (hereinafter, “CMF”) authorized Banco de Chile, among others, to report the adjusted C46 index. This allows the Bank to report, in addition to the regular C46 index, outflow behavior assumptions of certain specific elements of the liability, such as demand deposits and time deposits. In addition, the regulator also requires some rollover assumptions for the loan portfolio.

The CMF establish the following limits for the C46:

Foreign Currency balance sheet items: 1-30 days C46 index < 1 x Tier-1 Capital

All Currencies balance sheet items: 1-30 days C46 index < 1 x Tier-1 Capital

All Currencies balance sheet items: 1-90 days C46 index < 2 x Tier-1 Capital

The use of this index in year 2021 is illustrated below:

	Adjusted C46 All CCYs as part of Basic Capital						Adjusted C46 FCCY as part of Basic Capital
	1 - 30 days			1 - 90 days			1 - 30 days

Maximum		0.17			0.14			0.36
Minimum		(0.22	)		(0.23	)		0.08
Average		(0.02	)		(0.02	)		0.22
Regulatory Limit		1.0			2.0			1.0

Additionally, the regulatory entities have introduced other metrics that the Bank uses in its management, such as the Liquidity Coverage Ratio ("LCR") and Net Stable Financing Ratio ("NSFR"), using assumptions similar to those used in the international banking. Only for the first one, a limit implementation calendar has been established and that during the year 2021 was with a minimum level of 80%. The evolution of the LCR and NSFR metrics during the year 2021 are shown below:

	LCR			NSFR

Maximum		2.46			1.13
Minimum		1.78			1.07
Average		2.09			1.10
Regulatory Limit		0.8	(*)		N/A

This is the current minimum value for the year 2021 and that increases 0.1 annually until reaching 1.0 in the year 2023.

Price Risk:

Price Risk Measurement and Limits

The measurement and management of Price Risk are carried out through the use of several metrics developed internally by the Bank, both for the Trading Book and for the Accrual Book (the Accrual Book includes all balance sheet items, even those of the Trading book but in such case these are reported at an interest rate adjustment period of one day, thus not generating accrual interest rate risk). In addition, the Bank reports metrics to regulatory entities according to the models defined by them.

The bank has established internal limits for the exposures of the Trading Book. In fact, FX positions (FX delta), interest rate sensitivities generated by the derivatives and debt securities portfolios (DV01 or also referred as to rho) and the FX options volatility sensitivity (vega) are measured, reported and controlled against their limits. Limits are established on an aggregate basis but also for some specific tenor points. The use of these limits is daily monitored, controlled and reported by independent control functions to the senior management of the bank. The internal governance framework also establishes that these limits must be approved by the board and reviewed at least annually.

The Bank measures and controls the risk for the Trading Book portfolios using the Value-at-Risk (VaR). The model uses a 99% confidence level and the most recent one-year observed rates, prices and yields data.

The use of VaR within year 2021 is illustrated below:

	Value-at-Risk 99% one-day confidence level MCh$

Maximum		1,606
Minimum		425
Average		971

Additionally, the Bank performs measuring, limiting, controlling and reporting interest rate exposures and risks for the Accrual Book using internally developed methodologies based on the differences in the amounts of assets and liabilities considering the interest rate repricing dates. Exposures are measured according to the Interest Rate Exposure or IRE metric and their corresponding risks using the Earnings-at-Risk or EaR metric.

The regulatory risk measurement for the Trading Book (C41 report, replaced in December 2021 by the APRM report, from the spanish Activos Ponderados por Riesgo Mercado) is produced by utilizing guidelines provided by the Central Bank of Chile (hereinafter, “BCCh”) and the CMF, which are adopted based on standardized BIS methodologies. The referred methodologies estimate the potential loss that the bank may incur considering standardized fluctuations of the value of market factors such as FX rates, interest rates and volatilities that may adversely impact the value of FX spot positions, interest rate exposures, and volatility exposures, respectively. In addition, correlation factors are included to represent non-parallel changes in the yield curve.

The risk measurement for the Banking Book, according to normative guidelines (C40 report), as a result of interest rate fluctuations is carried out through the use of standardized methodologies provided by regulatory entities (BCCh and CMF). The report includes models for reporting interest rate gaps and standardized adverse interest rate fluctuations. In addition to this, the regulatory entity has requested banks to establish internal limits for this regulatory risk measurement. Limits must be established separately for short-term and long-term balance. The short-term risk limit should be expressed as a percentage of the Net Interest Margin or NIM plus the revenue collected from commissions that depend on the level of the interest rate; the long-term risk limit cannot exceed a specific percentage of the amount of effective equity.

In addition to the above, the Market Risk Policy of Banco de Chile enforces to perform daily stress tests for the Trading Book and monthly for the Accrual Book, additionally a stress test for the AFS (available for sale) portfolio is included, which is reported daily. The output of the stress testing process is monitored against corresponding trigger levels: in the case those triggers are breached, the senior management is notified in order to implement further actions, if necessary. In addition, the results during the month for the trading activities are controlled against defined loss levels and in case such levels are exceeded, senior management is also notified.

Price Risk Sensitivity Analysis

The Bank uses stress tests as the main sensitivity analysis tool for Price Risk. The analysis is implemented for the Trading Book, Accrual Book and the AFS portfolio separately. The Bank has adopted this tool as it is considered more useful than fluctuations in business as usual scenario, such as VaR or EaR, given that:

(i)

The financial crisis show market factors fluctuations that are materially larger than those used in the VaR with 99% of confidence level or EaR with 99% of confidence level.

(ii)

The financial crisis also show that correlations between these fluctuations are materially different from those used in the VaR computation, since a crisis precisely indicates severe disconnections between the behaviors of market factors fluctuations respect to the patterns observed under normal conditions.

(iii)

Trading liquidity dramatically diminishes during financial distress and especially in emerging markets. Therefore, the overnight VaR number might not be representative of the loss for trading portfolios in such environment since closing exposures period may exceed one business day. This may also happen when calculating EaR, even considering three months as the closing period.

The impacts are determined by mathematical simulations of fluctuations in the values of market factors, and also, estimating the changes of the economic and /or accounting value of the financial positions.

In order to comply with IFRS 7.40, the following exercise was included illustrating an estimation of the impact of extreme but reasonable fluctuations of interest rates, swaps yields, FX rates and exchange volatility, which are used for valuing Trading Book, Accrual Book and the AFS portfolio. Given that the Bank’s portfolio includes positions denominated in nominal and real interest rates, these fluctuations must be aligned with extreme but realistic Chilean inflation changes forecasts.

The exercise is implemented by multiplying the sensitivities by the fluctuations obtained as the results of mathematical simulations over a two-week time horizon and using the maximum historical volatility, within a significant period of time, in each of the market factor present in the Trading Book, in the case of the AFS portfolio a four-week time horizon is used due to liquidity constrains; Accrual Book impacts are estimated by multiplying cumulative gaps by forward interest rates fluctuations modeled over a three-month time horizon and using the maximum historical volatility of interest fluctuations but limited by maximum fluctuations and / or levels observed within a significant period of time. It is relevant to note that the methodology might ignore some portion of the interest rates convexity, since it is not captured properly when large fluctuations are modeled. In any case, given the magnitude of the changes, the methodology may be reasonable enough for the purposes and scope of the analysis.

The following table illustrates the fluctuations resulting from the main market factors in the maximum stress test exercise, or more adverse, for the Trading Book.

The directions or signs of these fluctuations are those that correspond to those that generate the most adverse impact at the aggregate level.

The worst impact on the Bank’s Trading Book as of December 31, 2021, as a result of the simulation process described above, is as follows:

Most Adverse Stress Scenario P&L Impact Trading Book (MCh$)
CLP Interest Rate			(2,365	)
Derivatives	(432	)
Debt instruments	(1,933	)
CLF Interest Rate			(11,313	)
Derivatives	118
Debt instruments	(11,431	)
Interest rate USD offshore			(64	)
Domestic/offshore interest rate spread USD			(48	)
Banking spread			(389	)
Total Interest rates			(14,179	)
Total FX and FX Options			137
Total			(14,042	)

The modeled scenario would generate losses in the Trading Book for approximately MCh$14,042. In any case, such fluctuations would not result in material losses compared to Basic Capital or to the P&L estimate for the next 12-months.

The impact on the Accrual Book for the next 12 months as of December 31, 2021, which does not necessarily mean a net loss(gain) but a greater(lower) net income from funds generation (resulting net interest rate generation), is illustrated below:

Most Adverse Stress Scenario 12-Month Revenue Accrual Book (MCh$)
Impact by Base Interest Rate shocks	(391,392	)
Impact due to Spreads Shocks	(16,255	)
Higher / (Lower) Net revenues	(407,647	)

The impact on the AFS portfolio it is show in the followings tables. First are the main fluctuation in the market factors, due to the scenarios provided for the stress test meltdown (more adverse), for this portfolio.

The worst impact on the Bank’s AFS portfolio as of December 31, 2021, as a result of the simulation process described above, is as follows:

Most Adverse Stress Scenario P&L Impact AFS portfolio (MCh$)

Interest rate USD offshore	—
Domestic/offshore interest rate spread USD	—

Corporative spread	220
Total	(162,252	)

The modeled scenario would generate losses in the AFS portfolio for approximately MCh$162,252, which would potentially be reflected in Other Comprehensive Income accounts.

The main negative impact on the Trading Book would occur as a result of an increase in local interest rates, especially for the Debt instruments, the same applies to the AFS portfolio. The lowest potential income in the next 12 months in the Accrual Book would occur in a scenario of a sharp inflation price fall. In any case, the impacts would be less than the annual budgeted profits of the Bank.

Requirements and Capital Management:

The main objectives of the Bank’s capital management are to ensure the adequacy and quality of its capital, at a consolidated level, based on managing the risks it faces in its operations, establishing sufficient capital levels, through the definition of an internal objective, which supports both the business strategy and stress scenarios in the short and medium terms, thus ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, a solid credit rating and adequate capital clearances. During 2021, the Bank has comfortably met the required capital requirements.

As part of its Capital Management Policy, the Bank has established capital adequacy alerts and limits, which are monitored by the governance structures that the Bank has established for these purposes, including the Capital Management Committee. During 2021, none of the internal alerts defined by the Bank were activated as part of the Capital Risk Appetite Framework.

The Bank manages capital based on its strategic objectives, its risk profile and its ability to generate cash flows, as well as the economic and business context in which it operates. Consequently, the Bank may modify the amount of payment of dividends to its shareholders or issue basic capital, additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital instruments. The adequacy of the Bank’s capital is monitored using, among other measures, the indices and rules established by the CMF, as well as the alerts and internal limits that the capital management committee and board of directors have defined for such purposes.

Capital Requirements

In accordance with the General Banking Law, the effective equity of a bank may not be less than 8% of its risk-weighted assets (RWA), net of required provisions. Additionally, it establishes that the Basic Capital may not be less than 4.5% of its APR or 3% of its total assets. Regarding Tier 1 capital, corresponding to the sum of Basic Capital, bonds with no maturity date and preferred shares, it is established that it may not be less than 6% of their RWAs, net of required provisions. Likewise, banking entities must comply, as established by current regulations or regulators, with capital buffers, such as the conservation buffer, the systemically important buffer, the countercyclical buffer and/or capital charges by pillar 2.

Adoption of the Basel III standard

In 2019, the CMF began the regulatory process for the implementation of Basel III standards in Chile, as established in Law No. 21,130 that Modernizes Banking Legislation. During the years 2020 and 2021, the CMF promulgated the different regulations for the adequacy of the Basel III standard for local banking, which are applicable as of December 1, 2021. The regulation includes the standard methodologies to determine, among others, Credit, Operational and Market Risk-Weighted Assets, regulatory capital, leverage ratio and systemically important banks. Additionally, the regulations describe requirements and conditions applicable to: (i) the application of internal models for the calculation of certain risk-weighted assets, (ii) the issuance of hybrid capital instruments, (iii) market disclosure requirements (Pillar 3), (iv) the principles for determining capital buffers (countercyclical and conservation), (v) additional requirements to which banks defined as systemically important and (vi) the criteria to determine additional capital requirements for banks with deficiencies identified in the supervision process (Pillar 2), among others.

Requirements and Capital Management, continued:

The aforementioned Basel III banking solvency standards consider a series of transitory regulations. These measures include: i) the gradual adoption of the conservation buffer and requirements for systemic banks, ii) the gradual application of adjustments to regulatory capital, iii) the temporary substitution of additional tier 1 capital (AT1) for tier 2 capital instruments, that is, subordinated bonds and additional provisions and iv) gradualness to continue recognizing subordinated bonds issued by banking subsidiaries as effective equity.

Subsequent Events:

On January 27, 2022, the Board of Directors of Banco de Chile agreed to convene an Ordinary Shareholders Meeting on March 17, 2022 in order to propose, among other matters, the following:

The following distribution of profits for the year ended on December 31, 2021:

Deduct and withhold from the net income of the year, an amount equivalent to the effect of inflation of the paid capital and reserves according to the variation of the Consumer Price Index that occurred between November 2020 and November 2021, amounting to Ch$253,093,655,744 which will be added to retained earnings from previous periods.

Distribute in the form of dividend the remaining liquid profit, corresponding to a dividend of Ch$5.34393608948 to each of the 101,017,081,114 shares of the Bank
