| (b) | Fair Value Hedges:
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, no fair value hedges are held.
| (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, Norwegian kroner and Mexican peso. 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 are 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 and UF indexation Revenue” of the Income Financial Statements.

With respect to CLF assets hedged; these are revalued monthly according to the variation of the UF, which is equivalent to monthly reinvest the assets until maturity of the relationship hedging.
| (c.4) | The unrealized results generated during the year 2024 by those derivative contracts that conform the hedging instruments in this cash flow hedging strategy, have been recorded with charge to equity amounting to Ch$21,798 million (credit to equity of Ch$113,183 million and charge to equity of Ch$215,476 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively). The net effect of taxes charge to equity amounts to Ch$15,913 million (a credit to equity of Ch$82,624 million and a charge to equity of Ch$157,297 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively).
The accumulated balance for this concept as of December 31, 2024 corresponds to a charge to equity amounted to Ch$12,397 million (a credit to equity amounting to Ch$9,401 million as of December 31, 2023 and a charge to equity amounting to Ch$103,782 million as of December 31, 2022).
| (c.5) | The effect of the cash flow hedging derivatives that offset the result of the hedged instruments corresponds to a credit to income of Ch$100,566 million in 2024 (a charge to result for Ch$4,320 million in 2023 and a credit to income for Ch$251,371 million in 2022).
| (c.6) | As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was not any inefficiency in the cash flow hedge, because both, hedged item and hedge instruments, are mirrors of each other, it means that all variation of value attributable to rate and revaluation components are netted totally.
| (c.7) | As of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Bank had no hedges of net investments in foreign businesses.
