Exchange Rates

Chile has two currency markets, the Mercado Cambiario Formal, or the Formal Exchange Market, and the Mercado Cambiario Informal, or the Informal Exchange Market. According to Law 18,840, the organic law of the Central Bank and the Central Bank Act (Ley Orgánica Constitucional del Banco Central de Chile), the Central Bank determines which purchases and sales of foreign currencies must be carried out in the Formal Exchange Market. Pursuant to Central Bank regulations currently in effect, all payments, remittances or transfers of foreign currency abroad which are required to be effected through the Formal Exchange Market may be effected with foreign currency procured outside the Formal Exchange Market. The Formal Exchange Market is comprised of the banks and other entities so authorized by the Central Bank. The Informal Exchange Market is comprised of entities that are not expressly authorized to operate in the Formal Exchange Market, such as certain foreign exchange houses and travel agencies, among others. The Central Bank is empowered to require that certain purchases and sales of foreign currencies be carried out on the Formal Exchange Market. The conversion from pesos to U.S. dollars of all payments and distributions with respect to the ADSs described in this Report must be transacted at the spot market rate in the Formal Exchange Market.

Both the Formal and Informal Exchange Markets are driven by free market forces. Current regulations require that the Central Bank be informed of certain transactions and that they be effected through the Formal Exchange Market. In order to keep the average exchange rate within certain limits, the Central Bank may intervene by buying or selling foreign currency on the Formal Exchange Market. On November 28, 2019, the Central Bank announced a program of actively intervening in the exchange market beginning on December 2, 2019 until May 29, 2020, in an amount of up to U.S.$20 billion.

The U.S.$ Observed Exchange Rate (dólar observado), which is reported by the Central Bank and published daily in the Chilean newspapers, is the weighted average exchange rate of the previous business day’s transactions in the Formal Exchange Market. The Central Bank has the power to intervene by buying or selling foreign currency on the Formal Exchange Market to attempt to maintain the Observed Exchange Rate within a desired range. Even though the Central Bank is authorized to carry out its transactions at the Observed Exchange Rate, it generally uses spot rates for its transactions. Other banks generally carry out authorized transactions at spot rates as well.

Purchases and sales of foreign currencies may be legally carried out in the Informal Exchange Market. The Informal Exchange Market reflects transactions carried out at informal exchange rates by entities not expressly authorized to operate in the Formal Exchange Market. There are no limits imposed on the extent to which the rate of exchange in the Informal Exchange Market can fluctuate above or below the Observed Exchange Rate. In recent years, the variation between the Observed Exchange Rate and the Informal Exchange Rate has not been significant. On September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 the exchange rate in the Informal Exchange Market as published by Reuters at 1:30 pm on these days was Ch$728.60 and Ch$656.74 respectively, or 0.40% more and 0.72% less, respectively, than the Central Bank’s published observed exchange rate for such dates of Ch$725.68 and Ch$661.50, respectively, per U.S.$1.00.

The following table sets forth the annual low, high, average and period-end observed exchange rate for U.S. dollars for each of the following periods, as reported by the Central Bank. We make no representation that the Chilean peso or the U.S. dollar amounts referred to herein actually represent, could have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars or Chilean pesos, as the case may be, at the rates indicated, at any particular rate or at all. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not report a noon buying rate for pesos.

Dividends

Under the New General Banking Law (as defined herein), a Chilean bank may only pay a single dividend per year (i.e., interim dividends are not permitted). Santander-Chile’s annual dividend is proposed by its Board of Directors and is approved by the shareholders at the annual ordinary shareholders’ meeting held the year following that in which the dividend is generated. For example, the 2019 dividend must be proposed and approved during the first four months of 2020. Following shareholder approval, the proposed dividend is declared and paid. Historically, the dividend for a particular year has been declared and paid no later than one month following the shareholders’ meeting. Dividends are paid to shareholders of record on the fifth day preceding the date set for payment of the dividend. The applicable record dates for the payment of dividends to holders of ADSs will, to the extent practicable, be the same.

Under the New General Banking Law, a bank must distribute cash dividends in respect of any fiscal year in an amount equal to at least 30% of its net income for that year, as long as the dividend does not result in the infringement of minimum capital requirements. The balances of our distributable net income are generally retained for use in our business (including for the maintenance of any required legal reserves). Although our Board of Directors currently intends to pay regular annual dividends, the amount of dividend payments will depend upon, among other factors, our then current level of earnings, capital and legal reserve requirements, as well as market conditions, and there can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of future dividends.

Dividends payable to holders of ADSs are net of foreign currency conversion expenses of The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary (the “Depositary”) and will be subject to the Chilean withholding tax currently at the rate of 35% (subject to credits in certain cases as described in “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—Material Tax Consequences of Owning Shares of Our Common Stock or ADSs” in our 2018 20-F).

Under the Foreign Investment Contract (as defined herein), the Depositary, on behalf of ADS holders, is granted access to the Formal Exchange Market to convert cash dividends from Chilean pesos to U.S. dollars and to pay such U.S. dollars to ADS holders outside Chile, net of taxes, and no separate registration by ADS holders is required. In the past, Chilean law required that holders of shares of Chilean companies who were not residents of Chile to register as foreign investors under one of the foreign investment regimes contemplated by Chilean law in order to have dividends, sale proceeds or other amounts with respect to their shares remitted outside Chile through the Formal Exchange Market. On April 19, 2001, the Central Bank deregulated the Exchange Market and eliminated the need to obtain approval from the Central Bank in order to remit dividends, but at the same time this eliminated the possibility of accessing the Formal Exchange Market. These changes do not affect the current Foreign Investment Contract, which was signed prior to April 19, 2001, which grants access to the Formal Exchange Market with prior approval of the Central Bank. See “Item 10. Additional Information—D. Exchange Controls” in our 2018 20-F.

The following table presents dividends declared and paid by us in nominal terms in the past four years:

Year |  | Dividend Ch$ millions (1) |  |  | Dividend U.S.$ millions (2) |  |  | Per share Ch$/share (3) |  |  | Per ADS U.S.$/ADS (4) |  |  | % over earnings (5) |

B. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the following risk factors, and the risk factors set forth under “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors” in our 2018 20-F, which should be read in conjunction with all the other information presented in this Report and in our 2018 20-F. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not know about or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our business operations. Any of the following risks, if they actually occur, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, prospects and financial condition.

8

We are subject to market risks that are presented both in this subsection and in “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our 2018 20-F.

Credit, market and liquidity risk may have an adverse effect on our credit ratings and our cost of funds. Any downgrade in Chile’s, our controlling shareholders or our credit rating would likely increase our cost of funding, require us to post additional collateral or take other actions under some of our derivative contracts and adversely affect our interest margins and results of operations.

Credit ratings affect the cost and other terms upon which we are able to obtain funding. Rating agencies regularly evaluate us, and their ratings of our debt are based on a number of factors, including our financial strength and conditions affecting the financial services industry generally. In addition, due to the methodology of the main rating agencies, our credit rating is affected by the rating of Chile’s sovereign debt. If Chile’s sovereign debt is downgraded, our credit rating would also likely be downgraded by an equivalent amount.

In August 2017, Fitch Ratings Ltd. (“Fitch”) downgraded our main ratings from A+ to A following a similar action on the sovereign rating of the Republic of Chile. Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) placed the Bank’s ratings on Outlook Negative in August 2017 and reaffirmed this rating and outlook in November 2017. In August 2018, the Bank’s outlook changed from negative to stable by S&P after the outlook for the sovereign rating of the Republic of Chile.

In July 2018, Moody’s downgraded our main rating to A1 from Aa3, after revising the sovereign rating of the Republic of Chile to A1 as well. Moody’s currently has a stable outlook on the Republic of Chile’s sovereign rating and on our rating as well.

In March 2019, Japan Credit Rating Agency started covering Santander Chile, assigning us an international rating of A+ (stable), after assigning the sovereign rating of the Republic of Chile AA- (stable).

In addition, our ratings may be adversely affected by any downgrade in the ratings of our parent company, Santander Spain. The long-term debt of Santander Spain is currently rated investment grade by the major rating agencies: A2 (stable) by Moody’s, A (stable) by S&P and A- (stable) by Fitch.

Any downgrade in our debt credit ratings would likely increase our borrowing costs and may require us to post additional collateral or take other actions under some of our derivative contracts, and could limit our access to capital markets and adversely affect our commercial business. For example, a ratings downgrade could adversely affect our ability to sell or market certain of our products, engage in certain longer-term and derivatives transactions and retain our customers, particularly customers who need a minimum rating threshold in order to invest. In addition, under the terms of certain of our derivative contracts and other financial commitments we may be required to maintain a minimum credit rating or terminate such contracts or post collateral. Any of these results of a ratings downgrade could reduce our liquidity and have an adverse effect on us, including our operating results and financial condition.

While certain potential impacts of these downgrades are contractual and quantifiable, the full consequences of a credit rating downgrade are inherently uncertain, as they depend upon numerous dynamic, complex and inter-related factors and assumptions, including market conditions at the time of any downgrade, whether any downgrade of our long-term credit rating precipitates downgrades to our short-term credit rating, and assumptions about the potential behaviors of various customers, investors and counterparties. Actual outflows could be higher or lower than the preceding hypothetical examples, depending upon certain factors including which credit rating agency downgrades our credit rating, any management or restructuring actions that could be taken to reduce cash outflows and the potential liquidity impact from loss of unsecured funding (such as from money market funds) or loss of secured funding capacity. Although unsecured and secured funding stresses are included in our stress testing scenarios and a portion of our total liquid assets is held against these risks, a credit rating downgrade could still have a material adverse effect on us.

In addition, if we were required to cancel our derivatives contracts with certain counterparties and were unable to replace such contracts, our market risk profile could be altered.

9

There can be no assurance that the rating agencies will maintain the current ratings or outlooks. Failure to maintain favorable ratings and outlooks could increase our cost of funding and adversely affect interest margins, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

We are subject to regulatory capital and liquidity requirements that could limit our operations, and changes to these requirements may further limit and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Chilean banks are required by the New General Banking Law to maintain regulatory capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets, net of required loan loss allowance and deductions, and paid-in capital and reserves (“core capital”) of at least 3% of total assets, net of required loan loss allowances. As we are the result of the merger between two predecessors with a relevant market share in the Chilean market, we are currently required to maintain a minimum regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 11%. As of September 30, 2019, the ratio of our regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets, net of loan loss allowance and deductions, was 12.8% and our core capital ratio was 10.2%. Certain developments could affect our ability to continue to satisfy the current capital adequacy requirements applicable to us, including:

| ● | the increase of risk-weighted assets as a result of the expansion of our business or regulatory changes;

| ● | the failure to increase our capital correspondingly;

| ● | losses resulting from a deterioration in our asset quality;

| ● | declines in the value of our investment instrument portfolio;

| ● | changes in accounting standards;

| ● | changes in provisioning guidelines that are charged directly against our equity or net income; and

| ● | changes in the guidelines regarding the calculation of the capital adequacy ratios of banks in Chile.

On January 19, 2019, the Chilean government enacted Law No. 21,130, that amends, among others, the General Banking Law (the General Banking Law, as amended, is referred to herein as the “New General Banking Law”) and establishes new capital regulations for banks in Chile in line with Basel III standards and the merger of the banking regulator with the FMC, with all current SBIF powers being transferred to the FMC. The FMC was created by Law 21,000 in 2017 and started operations December 14, 2017 (eliminating the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance as of January 15, 2018). As of June 1, 2019, the SBIF merged with the FMC, which became the SBIF’s legal successor.

Therefore, the FMC has become the sole supervisor for the Chilean financial system overseeing insurance companies, companies with publicly traded securities, credit unions, credit card and prepaid card issuers, and banks. The FMC is responsible for the proper functioning, development and stability of the financial market, facilitating the participation of market agents and defending public faith in the financial system. To do so, it must maintain a general and systemic vision of the market, considering the interests of investors and policyholders. It is also responsible for ensuring that the persons or entities audited, from their initiation until they are liquidated or otherwise terminated, comply with the laws, regulations, statutes and other provisions that govern them.

The FMC is in charge of a Council, which is composed of five members, who must be recognized professionals or have academic prestige in matters relating to the financial system and who are appointed as follows:

| ● | A Commissioner appointed by the President of Chile who is the chairman of the FMC.

| ● | Four commissioners appointed by the President of Chile through supreme decree by the Ministry of Finance, after ratification by four sevenths of members of the Senate at a session specially convened for that purpose.

10

The FMC Council’s responsibilities include regulating, sanctioning and defining general supervision policies. In addition, there is a prosecutor in charge of investigations and the chairman of the FMC is responsible for this supervision. The FMC acts in coordination with the Central Bank.

Under the New General Banking Law, minimum capital requirements have increased in terms of amount and quality. Total Regulatory Capital remains at 8% of risk-weighted assets which includes credit, market and operational risk. Minimum Tier 1 capital increased from 4.5% to 6% of risk-weighted assets, of which up to 1.5% may be Additional Tier 1 (AT1), either in the form of preferred shares or perpetual bonds, both of which may be convertible to common equity. The FMC also establishes the conditions and requirements for the issuance of perpetual bonds and preferred equity. Tier 2 capital is now set at 2% of risk-weighted assets. Additional capital demands are incorporated through a Conservation Buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, setting a Total Equity Requirement of 10.5% of risk-weighted assets. The Central Bank may set an additional Counter Cyclical Buffer of up to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets with agreement from the FMC. Both buffers must be comprised of core capital.

The FMC, with agreement from the Central Bank, may impose additional capital requirements for Systemically Important Banks (“SIB”) of between 1-3.5% of risk-weighted assets. Notably, the Central Bank may require: (1) the addition of up to 2% to the core capital to a bank’s total assets ratios; (2) a reduction in the technical reserve requirement trigger from 2.5 times regulatory capital to 1.5 times regulatory capital; and/or (3) a reduction in the interbank loan limit to 20% of regulatory capital of any SIB. While the FMC has not yet established the criteria to assess which banks will be considered SIBs, it is likely that we will be classified as a SIB, given our size and market share and as explained below because of the FMC’s proposed regulation on SIBs.

The following table sets forth a comparison between the regulatory capital demands under the previous law, and those under the New General Banking Law:

Capital requirements: Basel III, previous GBL and new requirements
Capital categories |  | Previous Law |  |  | New General Banking Law |
(% over risk weighted assets)
(1) Total Tier 1 Capital (2+3) |  |  | 4.5 |  |  |  | 6 |
(2) Shareholders’ Equity |  |  | 4.5 |  |  |  | 4.5 |
(3) Additional Tier 1 Capital (AT1) |  |  | — |  |  |  | 1.5 |
(4) Tier 2 Capital |  |  | 3.5 |  |  |  | 2 |
(5) Total Regulatory Capital (1+4) |  |  | 8 |  |  |  | 8 |
(6) Conservation Buffer |  |  | 2% over regulatory capital in order to be classified in Category A solvency. |  |  |  | 2.5 |
(7) Total Equity Requirement (5+6) |  |  | 8 |  |  |  | 10.5 |
(8) Counter Cyclical Buffer |  |  | — |  |  |  | up to 2.5 |
(9) SIB* Requirement |  |  | Up to 6% in case of a merger |  |  |  | Between 1 - 3.5 |

| * | Systemically Important Banks

The New General Banking Law also incorporates Pillar II capital requirements with the objective of assuring an adequate management of risk. The FMC, with at least four votes from the Council of the FMC, will have the power to impose additional regulatory capital demands of up to 4% of risk-weighted assets, either Tier I or Tier II, if it determines that the previous capital levels and buffers are not enough for a particular financial institution. The FMC will be responsible for establishing weightings for risk-weighted assets as a separate regulation based on the implementation of standard models, subject to agreement from the Central Bank.

The FMC will have until December 1, 2020 to establish the weightings. Until then, banks must maintain regulatory capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets, net of required loan loss allowance and deductions, and paid-in capital and reserves (“core capital”) of at least 3% of total assets, net of required loan loss allowances. We must maintain a minimum regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 11%. As of September 30, 2019 our ratio of regulatory capital to risk weighted assets was 12.8%.

11

The FMC has already started publishing drafts for consultation. On August 12, 2019, the FMC published their first draft for the identification and core capital charge for those banks considered SIBs. There are a total of four factors that are then weighted to reach a market share:

| 1. | Size (weighted at 30%): Includes total assets consolidated in the domestic market.

| 2. | Domestic interconnection (weighted at 30%): Includes assets and liabilities with financial institutions (banks and non-banks) and assets in circulation in the Chilean financial market (equity and fixed income).

| 3. | Domestic substitution (weighted at 20%): Includes the share in local payments, assets in custody, deposits and loans.

| 4. | Complexity (weighted at 20%): Includes factors that could lead to greater difficulties regarding costs and/ or time for the orderly resolution of the Bank. These include notional amount of OTC derivatives, inter-jurisdictional assets and liabilities and available-for-sale assets.

The minimum amount of the sum of the factors to be considered systemic is 1000 bp, equivalent to a weighted participation of 10% of all four factors. The core capital additional charge depends on the size of the total factor, set out in the table below:

Systemic Level |  | Range (bp) |  | Core capital additional charge (% of risk-weighted assets)
I |  | 1000-1300 |  | 1.0%-1.25%
II |  | 1300-1800 |  | 1.25%-1.75%
III |  | 1800-2000 |  | 1.75%-2.5%
IV |  | >=2000 |  | 2.5%-3.5%

With information as of December 31, 2018, the FMC estimated that six banks will qualify as systemic, with two banks in systemic level I and four banks in level II. In total, it is estimated that the six banks will need US$ 2.5 billion in additional capital in order to meet the new capital requirements under this item. Under these rules we are considered systemic and initial estimates place us in the systemic level II category.

On September 13, 2019, the FMC published the risk weightings for operational risk. In order to estimate the operational risk coefficient, two factors are considered:

| 1. | The business indicator component (BIC): A component that considers interest income, interest earning assets, dividend income, financial transactions, fees, and other operational income and expenses. These are then multiplied by a marginal coefficient.

| 2. | Internal Loss Multiplier (ILM): This component is based on 10 years of historical operational losses, or at least five years in some special cases.

According to FMC and assuming and ILM of 1 for all banks, operational risk weightings for the financial system would require an additional 8% of risk weighting as of December 2018. According to our current estimates the growth of our risk-weighted assets will be similar to the average for the system estimated by the FMC.

On November 19, 2019, the FMC published for consultation a new regulation on regulatory capital to comply with effective net worth rules in accordance with Basel III and the New General Banking Law. The new regulation will become effective on December 1, 2020 and will be gradually implemented and adjusted to be fully in place by December 1, 2024.

Pursuant to the proposed regulation, there will be three levels of capital: ordinary capital level 1 or CET1 (basic capital), additional capital level 1 or AT1 (perpetual bonds and preferred stock) and capital level 2 or T2 (subordinated bonds and voluntary provisions). Regulatory capital will be composed of the sum of CET1, AT and T2 after making some deductions, mainly for intangible assets, hybrid securities issued by foreign subsidiaries, partial deduction for deferred taxes and some reserve and profit accounts. Had the capital requirements been in place as of December 31, 2018, the FMC calculated that the implementation of the capital requirements would have led to a decrease of 8% the regulatory capital of the whole Chilean banking system.

12

It is expected that by the end of 2019 or in the first quarter of 2020, the FMC will publish the risk weighting model for credit risk. As this is the core of the reform, it is still too difficult to estimate the total impact the new weightings will have on our local capital ratios. For the purposes of reporting to our parent company, we calculate this ratio using a model approved by the European Central Bank standards. In this scenario, our core capital ratio is 12.5% and our regulatory capital ratio is 15.5% as of September 30, 2019. No assurance can be given that the Chilean BIS III model will be similar to those used for us by our parent company.

We may also be required to raise additional capital in the future in order to maintain our capital adequacy ratios above the minimum required levels. Our ability to raise additional capital may be limited by numerous factors, including: our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows; any necessary government regulatory approvals; our credit ratings; general market conditions for capital raising activities by commercial banks and other financial institutions; and domestic and international economic, political and other conditions. If we require additional capital in the future, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such capital on favorable terms, in a timely manner or at all. Furthermore, the FMC may increase the minimum capital adequacy requirements applicable to us. Accordingly, although we currently meet the applicable capital adequacy requirements, we may face difficulties in meeting these requirements in the future. If we fail to meet the capital adequacy requirements, we may be required to take corrective actions. These measures could materially and adversely affect our business reputation, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if we are unable to raise sufficient capital in a timely manner, the growth of our loan portfolio and other risk-weighted assets may be restricted, and we may face significant challenges in implementing our business strategy. As a result, our prospects, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

The SBIF (now the FMC) and the Central Bank published new liquidity standards in 2015 and ratios that must be implemented and calculated by all banks. These will eventually replace the current regulatory limits described above. These new liquidity standards are in line with those established in Basel III. The most important liquidity ratios that will eventually be adopted by Chilean banks are:

| ● | Liability concentration per institutional and wholesale counterparty. Banks will have to calculate the percentage of their liabilities coming from institutional and wholesale counterparties, including ratios regarding renovation, renewals, restructurings, maturity and product concentration of these counterparties.

| ● | Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), which measures the percentage of liquid assets over net cash outflows. The new guidelines also define liquid assets and the formulas for calculating net cash outflows.

| ● | Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR), which will measure a bank’s available stable funding relative to its required stable funding. Both concepts are also defined in the new regulations.

Beginning on March 30, 2016, banks began reporting these ratios to the Central Bank and the SBIF (now the FMC). The final limits and results for the LCR were published in May 2018, with minimum LCR of 60% starting from January 1, 2019, gradually increasing by 10% until reaching 100%. The initial limits banks must meet in order to comply with the other liquidity ratios have not been published yet. For this reason, we cannot yet determine the effect that the implementation of these models will have on our business. Such effect could be material and adverse if it materially increases the liquidity we are required to maintain

We are subject to substantial regulation and regulatory and governmental oversight which could adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition.

As a financial institution, the Chilean regulatory authorities subject us to extensive regulations, inspections, examinations, inquiries, audits and other regulatory requirements, which may materially affect our businesses. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet all of the applicable regulatory requirements and guidelines, or that we will not be subject to sanctions, fines, restrictions on our business or other penalties in the future as a result of noncompliance. If sanctions, fines, restrictions on our business or other penalties are imposed on us for failure to comply with applicable requirements, guidelines or regulations, our business, financial condition, results of operations and our reputation and ability to engage in business may be materially and adversely affected.

In their supervisory roles, the regulators seek to maintain the safety and soundness of financial institutions with the aim of strengthening the protection of customers and the financial system. They accomplish this by utilizing a variety of regulatory tools, including the collection of information by way of prudential returns, reports obtained from skilled persons, visits to firms and regular meetings with management to discuss issues such as performance, risk management and strategy. In general, these regulators have a more outcome-focused regulatory approach that involves more proactive enforcement and more punitive penalties for infringement. As a result, we face increased supervisory scrutiny (resulting in increased internal compliance costs and supervision fees), and in the event of a breach of our regulatory obligations, we would likely face stringent regulatory fines.

13

Changes in regulations may also cause us to face increased compliance costs and limitations on our ability to pursue certain business opportunities and provide certain products and services. As some new or amended banking laws and new regulations have been recently adopted, the manner in which those laws and related regulations are applied to the operations of financial institutions is still evolving. Moreover, to the extent these recently adopted regulations are implemented inconsistently in the various jurisdictions in which we operate, we may face higher compliance costs. No assurance can be given generally that laws or regulations will be adopted, enforced or interpreted in a manner that will not have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

The main regulations and regulatory and governmental oversight that can adversely impact us include but are not limited to the following (see more details on “Item 4. Information on the Company—B. Business Overview—Regulation and Supervision” in our 2018 20-F):

We are subject to regulation by the FMC and by the Central Bank with regard to certain matters, including reserve requirements, interest rates, foreign exchange mismatches and market risks. Chilean laws, regulations, policies and interpretations of laws relating to the banking sector and financial institutions are continually evolving and changing. Any new reforms could result in increased competition in the industry and thus may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Pursuant to the New General Banking Law, all Chilean banks may, subject to the approval of the FMC, engage in certain businesses other than commercial banking depending on the risk associated with such business and their financial strength. Such additional businesses include securities brokerage, mutual fund management, securitization, insurance brokerage, leasing, factoring, financial advisory, custody and transportation of securities, loan collection and financial services. The New General Banking Law also applies to the Chilean banking system a modified version of the capital adequacy guidelines issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices and limits the discretion of the FMC to deny new banking licenses. There can be no assurance that regulators will not in the future impose more restrictive limitations on the activities of banks, including us. Any such change could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Historically, Chilean banks have not paid interest on amounts deposited in checking accounts. We have begun to pay interest on some checking accounts under certain conditions. If competition or other factors lead us to pay higher interest rates on checking accounts, to relax the conditions under which we pay interest or to increase the number of checking accounts on which we pay interest, any such change could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

The New General Banking Law also changed the way banking institutions facing economic difficulties are treated, shifting the focus from resolution planning to anticipating potential adverse situations that may affect a bank and or the banking system or that imply the dissolution and liquidation of a bank. To that extent, banks are obliged to inform the FMC whenever they are in any of a certain number of specified situations and present an Early Regularization Plan for approval by the FMC. Banks in such situations are able to undertake a preventive capital increase or receive a three-year term loan from another bank, which is considered as capital. In case the Regularization Plan fails or is not presented by the bank, the FMC will appoint a Delegated Inspector or even a Provisional Administrator. We cannot assure you that we will not face such situations in the future, which could have a material adverse impact on us.

Currently, a credit line associated with a current account accrues interest until the client pays off the credit line. Starting January 1, 2020, a new law regarding the automatic credit line payments will come into effect. This law provides that the credit line associated with current accounts will automatically be paid off when the funds are available in the current account. Bank clients will have the option to turn off this feature of automatic discount, but must expressly and voluntarily do so. In this manner, there may be a negative material impact on the future accrual of interest under this item for the Bank. We estimate this change will lead to a negative impact of Ch$20,000 million on our net interest income in 2020.

A draft bill currently in Congress proposes to regulate prepayment commissions. This bill eliminates the prepayment fee for all interest-bearing loans, permitting the debtor to pay off the principal and interest accrued at any given time during the duration of a loan, unless otherwise expressly specified in the contract. This bill also prohibits grace periods to accrue interest. This bill is still in the early phases of congressional discussion so we cannot predict what impact, if any, they may have on the Bank but no assurance can be given that any such change will not have a material impact on our future revenue.

14

Finally, another draft bill currently in Congress also proposes to change the financial institutions’ responsibility for credit card and internet fraud, such that banks would become responsible for all damages that are caused by deficiencies in the security of technological systems in their payment systems. Additionally, the card issuer will be responsible for all fraud and will subsequently have the ability to seek payment from those responsible of the crime. The bill also intends to protect users from fraud, which they were unaware of. If this bill is passed, the Bank could be adversely affected by having to reimburse a larger amount of users of cards issued by us due to fraudulent transactions. There could also be additional costs due to stricter due diligence and more robust processes in order to safeguard the Bank from additional payments.

Changes to the pension fund system may affect the funding mix of the Bank.

The current pension fund system dates from the 1980s when pensions went from being state-funded to privately-funded, requiring Chilean employees to set aside 10% of their wages. While the system is widely regarded as a success, the demographics of Chilean society have changed and there have been modifications to the system. As of December 31, 2018, the Chilean pension fund management companies (Administradoras de Fondos de Pensiones, or “AFPs”) had U.S.$6,473 million invested in the Bank via equity, deposits and fixed income. In November 2018, the Chilean government presented a proposal for pension reform to Congress for discussion. The proposed bill includes measures to open the pension fund management industry to new institutions, lower entrance barriers to the industry, enhance the powers of the Superintendency of Pensions and introduce the FMC as a supervisory entity, among other reforms. The amount each worker must set aside is also likely to increase from the current 10% of wages to up to 15%. The additional cost of these measures will be gradually introduced and will be at the cost of the employer, which could raise personnel expenses for us.

As a result of the social unrest in Chile that ultimately led to riots in mid-October 2019, the government has also been discussing making additional changes to the proposed bill. These changes include gradually increasing basic pensions until 2022, depending on the age of the pensioner, and introducing a social insurance scheme for events such as longevity. On November 26, 2019, the Ministry of Finance and the Chilean Senate reached an agreement to increase the basic pension for pensioners 80 years or older by 50% starting on December 1, 2019. The government sent a bill to the Chilean Congress to implement such agreement, by which, in addition to the 50% increase for pensioners 80 years and older, basic pensions for, pensioners from 75 to 79 years old will increase by 30% on December 1, 2019 and will be equalized by January 1, 2021 to the basic pension for pensioners of 80 years and older, and basic pensions for pensioners of less than 75–years old will be increased by 25% on December 1, 2019, 40% in the aggregate from January 1, 2021, and will be equalized to basic pensions for pensioners from 75 to 79 years old by January 1, 2022. Although the bill is currently being discussed and widely expected to be approved, we are unable to predict the final provisions of the law. The potential adverse effect of the proposed law on our financial condition and results of operations cannot yet be determined.

A change in labor laws in Chile or a worsening of labor relations in the Bank could impact our business.

As of September 30, 2019 on a consolidated basis, we had 11,037 employees, of which 75.4% were unionized. In February 2018, a new collective bargaining agreement was signed with the main unions ahead of schedule, which became effective on September 1, 2018 and expires on August 31, 2021, though it may also be renegotiated ahead of schedule with the consent of our management and the unions. We generally apply the terms of our collective bargaining agreement to unionized and non-unionized employees. We have traditionally had good relations with our employees and their unions, but we cannot assure you that in the future, a strengthening of cross-industry labor movements will not materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

There is currently a new labor reform being discussed in Congress, which, among other items, would shorten the work week from 45 hours to 40 hours, excluding lunch breaks. There is also discussion to increase minimum wage currently set at Ch$301,000/month (US$415/month). At Santander Chile, the weekly working hours agreed under the collective bargaining agreement we have with our employees are 40 hours (excluding lunch breaks) and our minimum wage is set above the legal minimum. Despite this, we cannot assure you at this time that the new labor reform will not have material impact on our expenses.

These and any additional legislative or regulatory actions in Chile, Spain, the European Union, the United States or other countries, and any required changes to our business operations resulting from such legislation and regulations, could result in reduced capital availability, significant loss of revenue, limit our ability to continue organic growth (including increased lending), pursue business opportunities in which we might otherwise consider engaging and provide certain products and services, affect the value of assets that we hold, require us to increase our prices and therefore reduce demand for our products, impose additional costs on us or otherwise adversely affect our businesses. Accordingly, we cannot provide assurance that any such new legislation or regulations would not have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future.

Political, legal, regulatory and economic uncertainty arising from social unrest and the outcome social reforms, as well as the referendum on Chile’s constitution, could adversely impact the Bank’s business.

In October 2019, the government of Chile announced an increase in subway fares, which led to massive protests and a rise in social unrest as a result of growing public concern over perceived social inequality. Some groups of protestors have vandalized public and private assets in Santiago and other major cities. The protests and associated violence have caused commercial disruption throughout the country, especially in Santiago and other large cities, such as Valparaiso, Concepcion, Antofagasta and La Serena. In response to these events, the government announced a social agenda intended to increase basic pensions, expand social health coverage, and reduce and stabilize tariffs for some public services (such as public transportation and electricity) distributed to regulated clients.

To fund these initiatives, the government and the opposition reached an agreement regarding a new tax reform. The main points of the new agreement are: (i) a new marginal rate for top personal tax bracket is 40%, up from 35%, (ii) a higher property tax for high value properties, (iii) limitations on the use of retained losses as a means of reducing taxes, (iv) a special tax regime for SMEs (sales below approximately US$3 million/year) to avoid owner-operated SMEs from paying a higher tax bill than the income tax rate paid by workers with similar income levels, (v) new tax rules for investment vehicles, and (vi) a long-term plan to review tax exemptions for several economic sectors.

Finally, important political and social actors claim that the social unrest reflects the desire of a new social contract. Chile’s current constitution dates to 1980. On November 15, 2019, the majority of the local political parties agreed on a new constitutional process, to be initiated by a referendum to vote on two matters: (i) if there should there be a new constitution (ii) if so, should the convention for drafting the constitution be comprised of an elected mixed assembly or entirely comprised of elected citizens. This referendum will take place in April 2020, and then elections for the bodies that will draft the new constitution, if that is decided, will be held in October 2020. Each new article of the constitution would have to first be approved by two thirds of the new body. The body will have up to a year starting in October 2020 to complete the draft of the constitution. A plebiscite with compulsory participation would then be held to ratify the new constitution, if the option for a new constitution wins.

As a consequence of the social unrest and the political agreement to vote on a new constitution, there was increased volatility in the Chilean stock market and exchange rate fluctuations that resulted in a weakening of the Chilean peso against the U.S. dollar. The peso has depreciated 19.1% since October 18, 2019, when the more serious events started, to a record high level of Ch$828.25 on November 29, 2019, prompting the Central Bank to inject liquidity into the economy in U.S. dollars. The share prices and bond spreads of local banks, including ours, suffered significant declines in the market as social protests continued in the country. In addition, many banks and other financial institutions experienced physical damages at their branches and ATMs a result of violence and vandalism associated with the protests. Although most of our damages are insured, seventy of the Bank’s branches and some of our ATM machines suffered varying levels of damage during this period due to vandalism and pillaging, with 15 of such 70 branches being destroyed.

From a business perspective, we saw an increase in October of early non-performance levels among SMEs and consumer loans due to reduced working hours, and as a result reduced revenues and wages, in the economy as a whole. While we believe that this increase will be temporary, we expect to see an increase in unemployment in November, and as a result, further increases in non-performance levels in November. Accordingly, we are expecting a temporary increase in impairment charges and in our risk expenses in the fourth quarter of 2019. Profits of banks operating in Chile decreased 50.8% in October 2019 as compared with the prior month. Furthermore, we have cut our GDP forecast for Chile to 1.7% and 1.5% for 2019 and 2020, respectively and the budget deficit estimate has been increased to 3.2% of Chilean GDP in 2020.

News of the political agreement on a new constitution have reduced volatility of the markets and unrest levels have improved since then. The long-term effects of this social unrest are hard to predict, but could include slower economic growth and higher unemployment rates, which could adversely affect our profitability and prospects. For example, an increase in the unemployment rate beyond what we are expecting, or for a longer period than we are expecting, could diminish demand for loans and decrease our customers’ ability to repay their loans, increasing the risk of loan losses. There is also uncertainty regarding the details of the process of the referendum on whether or not to replace the current constitution, which are yet to be defined. If social unrest in Chile continues or worsens, it could have a negative impact on economic growth and the business environment in Chile overall, which could have an adverse effect on our business and prospects.

We rely on third parties and affiliates for important products and services.

Third party vendors and certain affiliated companies provide key components of our business infrastructure such as loan and deposit servicing systems, back office and business process support, information technology production and support, internet connections and network access. Relying on these third parties and affiliated companies can be a source of operational and regulatory risk to us, including with respect to security breaches affecting such parties. For example, in mid-2019, there was a theft of credit and debit card information from the systems of our main ATM network transaction processor in Chile which led to the loss of customers’ credit card information, including our customers. Although this breach did not have a material effect on our business and we have not faced any litigation as a result of this breach, we cannot assure you that we will not be impacted by any future breaches of the systems of our third party service providers, which could lead to a loss of sensitive customer data and expose us to litigation or other negative consequences. We are also subject to risk with respect to security breaches affecting the vendors and other parties that interact with these service providers. As our interconnectivity with these third parties and affiliated companies increases, we increasingly face the risk of operational failure with respect to their systems. We may be required to take steps to protect the integrity of our operational systems, thereby increasing our operational costs and potentially decreasing customer satisfaction.

In addition, any problems caused by these third parties or affiliated companies, including as a result of them not providing us their services for any reason, or performing their services poorly, could adversely affect our ability to deliver products and services to customers and otherwise conduct our business, which could lead to reputational damage and regulatory investigations and intervention. For instance, one of the third parties with which we store our data suffered a disruption of their systems in mid-2018. While we determined that our customer data was not affected, for security reasons we were forced to shut down certain of our online systems for a day and a half and we ultimately transferred our data to a new third-party service provider. Any disruptions of our third party service providers’ systems in the future could lead to a loss of sensitive data and expose us to litigation or other negative consequences that are outside our control. Moreover, replacing these third party vendors could also entail significant delays and expense. Further, the operational and regulatory risk we face as a result of these arrangements may be increased to the extent that we restructure such arrangements. Any restructuring could involve significant expense to us and entail significant delivery and execution risk which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial condition

C. Recent Developments

Political and Economic Conditions in Chile

In October 2019, the government of Chile announced an increase in subway fares, which led to massive protests and a rise in social unrest as a result of growing public concern over perceived social inequality. Since mid-October, Chile has continued to experience a significant level of social unrest. There are numerous demands by the population for more economic inclusion and fairer social relationships. In response to these events, the government announced a social agenda intended to increase minimum wages and basic pensions, expand health coverage, and reduce and stabilize certain public services tariffs (such as public transportation and electricity). This package would cost U.S.$1.2 billion and would be financed through budget adjustments, a rise in the top marginal income tax to 40% from 35%, higher property taxes for the wealthiest Chileans and sovereign debt financing. Going forward, we expect political discussion to focus on four possible structural reforms: (i) pensions; (ii) further labor reforms (iii) taxes; and (iv) the Constitution.

Regarding potential pension reforms, the government’s proposal is to increase basic pensions by 20% and to introduce a still unspecified social insurance scheme for certain events (e.g. life insurance). Currently, the majority of workers in Chile must contribute 10% of their salary to a private pension company. This figure will most likely rise to between 13 and 15%, with a part of such increase funding a collective pension for the retirees not having pensions at acceptable levels. On November 26, 2019, the Ministry of Finance and the Chilean Senate reached an agreement to increase the basic pension for pensioners 80 years or older by 50% starting on December 1, 2019. The government sent a bill to the Chilean Congress to implement such agreement, by which, in addition to the 50% increase for pensioners 80 years and older, basic pensions for, pensioners from 75 to 79 years old will increase by 30% on December 1, 2019 and will be equalized by January 1, 2021 to the basic pension for pensioners of 80 years and older, and basic pensions for pensioners of less than 75–years old will be increased by 25% on December 1, 2019, 40% in the aggregate from January 1, 2021, and will be equalized to basic pensions for pensioners from 75 to 79 years old by January 1, 2022. These measures would be gradually introduced and would be a cost of the employer, thus potentially raising personnel expenses.

17

There is also a new labor reform currently being discussed in Congress, which, among other reforms, would shorten the work week from 45 hours to 40 hours, excluding lunch breaks. There is also discussion to increase minimum wage currently set at Ch$301,000/month (US$415/month) to between Ch$350,000/month (USD$475/month approximately) and Ch$550,000/month (USD$755/month approximately). At Santander Chile, the collective bargaining agreement we have with our employees already sets the average work week at 40 hours, excluding lunch, and our minimum wage is set above the legal minimum. Despite this, we cannot assure at this time that the new labor reform will not have material impact on our expenses.

On taxes, the government and the opposition reached an agreement regarding a new tax reform. The main points of the new agreement are: (i) a new marginal rate for top personal tax bracket of 40%, up from 35%, (ii) a higher property tax for high value properties, (iii) limitations on the use of retained losses as a means of reducing taxes, (iv) a special tax regime for SMEs (sales below U.S.$3 million/year) to avoid owner operated SMEs from paying a higher tax bill than the income tax rate paid by workers with similar income levels, (v) new tax rules for investment vehicles, and (vi) a long-term plan to review tax exemptions for several economic sectors.

Finally, as important political and social actors claim that the social unrest reflects the desire of a new social contract, most of the political parties of the government coalition and the opposition announced on November 15, 2019 an agreement to replace the current constitution, which dates from 1980 under the regime of General Augusto Pinochet, but whose last relevant reform dates from the presidency of Ricardo Lagos in 2005. Chile’s current constitution dates to 1980. In April 2020, citizens will be asked in a plebiscite if they want a new constitution drafted and if so, to choose between two mechanisms: a fully elected independent Constitutional Assembly or a mixed assembly comprised of newly elected members and current members of Congress. If citizens vote for a new constitution, they will vote again in October 2020 to choose the members of the Constitutional Assembly according to the mechanism approved in the April 2020 plebiscite. The provisions of the new constitution shall have to be approved by a 2/3 majority of the members of the constitutional convention and the agreed text of the new constitution shall be subject to further approval by referendum.

As a result of these events, our GDP forecasts for 2019 and 2020 have been reduced. For 2019, our GDP forecast was cut from 2.4% to 1.7% and for 2020 we cut our forecast for GDP growth from 3.0% to 1.5%. Furthermore, we expect the budget deficit to reach 3.2% of GDP during 2020 due to the higher expenditure than expected. The peso has depreciated 19.1% since October 18, 2019, when the more serious events started, to a record high of Ch$828.25 on November 29, 2019, which may cause an increase in inflation and has prompted the Central Bank to implement USD liquidity measures to lower the exchange rate. Unemployment is expected to worsen due to the social unrest, mainly in the commerce and tourism sectors. A further increase in the unemployment rate could decrease demand for loans and increase the risk of loan losses. After the approval of the reforms and the agreement to discuss them, as well as a new constitution, mentioned above social unrest has diminished. However, if social unrest in Chile continues or worsens again, it could have a negative impact on economic growth and the business environment in Chile.

In October 2019, the Bank’s year to date consolidated net income for continuing operations totaled Ch$457,677 million, a decrease 6.3% compared to results as of October 2018. This fall was mainly due to the social unrest in recent weeks and a resulting 8.5% increase in provision expenses as compared to October 2018. This increase in provision expense was mainly due to an increase in short-term non-performance as a result of the social disruption occurring in Chile, which led to lower business activity and a temporary increase in early non-performing loan indicators (1-89 days of non-performance), especially in the SME segment and consumer loans. We expect to see similar trends in November. As a result of the social unrest, the Bank has experienced some business disruption in the fourth quarter of 2019 thus far, including experiencing damages at 70 of its 381 branches (of which 15 have been destroyed), as well as some damages to ATM machines. The majority of this damage is covered by insurance, but there have been certain increases in security and clean-up costs that are not covered by insurance.

Other Developments

On October 7, 2019, Banco Santander-Chile created a subsidiary company called “Klare Corredora de Seguros S.A.” authorized by the FMC, by resolution N ° 6,780 of September 26, 2019. This company will operate an open digital platform to broker insurance online.

On October 11, 2019, the Bank completed the sale of a significant part of its participation in Nexus S.A., which provide services for credit card transactions, for an aggregate amount of Ch$1,930 million. This investment was registered as an asset available for sale in our financial statement as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. See Note 35 to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

On November 15, 2019, the FMC, by resolution N ° 7,722, approved Banco Santander Chile’s acquisition of 51% of the shares of Santander Consumer Chile S.A., a car financing company in Chile, whose remaining 49% is owned by our parent company, Banco Santander, S.A., for an aggregate amount of Ch$62,136 million. This sale was approved by the Bank’s shareholders on August 27, 2019. Santander Consumer Chile S.A. had total loans of Ch$441,333 million as of September 30, 2019, of which Ch$12,003 million were nonperforming.

ITEM 2. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

| A. | Accounting Standards and critical accounting policies

Please see Note 1 to our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2019.

| B. | Differences between IFRS and Chilean Bank GAAP

Chilean Bank GAAP, as prescribed by the Compendium of Accounting Standards of the FMC (the “Compendium”), differs in certain respects from IFRS. The main differences that should be considered by an investor are set forth below. We do not consider these differences to be material individually or in the aggregate.:

Suspension of Income Recognition on Accrual Basis

In accordance with the Compendium, financial institutions must suspend recognition of income on an accrual basis in their statements of income for certain loans included in the impaired portfolio. IFRS 9 and IAS 39 did not allow the suspension of accrual of interest on financial assets for which an impairment loss has been determined. As of January 1, 2018, the Bank adopted IFRS 9. Under IFRS 9, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of financial assets, except for financial assets that have subsequently become credit-impaired (or “Stage 3”), for which interest revenue is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to their amortized cost (i.e., net of ECL provision). Off-balance interests are recorded as interest income only if the Bank receives the related payments. This difference does not materially impact our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Charge-offs and Accounts Receivable

The Compendium requires companies to establish deadlines for the charge-off of loans and accounts receivable. IFRS does not require any such deadline for charge-offs. A charge-off due to impairment would be recorded, if and only if, all efforts at collection of the loan or account receivable had been exhausted. Accordingly, this difference does not materially impact our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Assets Received in Lieu of Payment

The Compendium requires that the initial value of assets received in lieu of payment be the value agreed upon with a debtor as a result of the loan settlement or the value awarded in an auction, as applicable. These assets are required to be written off one year after their acquisition, if the assets have not been previously disposed of. IFRS requires that assets received in lieu of payment be initially accounted for at fair value. Subsequently, asset valuation depends on the classification provided by the entity for that type of asset. No deadline is established for charging-off an asset. The Bank has adjusted its Audited Consolidated Financial Statements accordingly.

19

Loan loss allowances

Prior to the adoption of IFRS 9 on January 1, 2018, the Bank calculated loan loss allowances in accordance with IAS 39. The main difference between Chilean GAAP and IFRS 9 and IAS 39 regarding loan loss allowances is that loan loss allowances under Chilean GAAP are calculated using expected loss models based on specific guidelines set by the FMC, which in turn are based on an expected losses approach while IAS 39 used an incurred loss approach. According to both Chilean Bank GAAP and IFRS, loan loss allowances are calculated using expected loss models. The models adopted with IFRS 9 used an expected loss approach, however these are not in accordance with specific guidelines under Chilean Bank GAAP given by the FMC. The FMC has not yet adopted IFRS 9 for banks and therefore the Bank has adjusted the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements to fully comply with IFRS standards. The most significant impact of IFRS 9 on the bank’s financial statements arises from the new impairment requirements. Impairment losses will increase and become more volatile for financial instruments in the scope of the IFRS 9 impairment model. Based on the assessment made the total impact (net of tax) of the adoption of IFRS 9 on the opening balance on the Bank’s equity at January 1, 2018 is Ch$82,454 million (net of tax).

Provisions for country risk and for contingent loan risk

Under Chilean GAAP, the Bank provisions for country risk to cover the risk taken when holding or committing resources with any foreign country. These allowances are established according to country risk classifications established by the FMC and therefore are not in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. Our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements have been adjusted accordingly.

Also under Chilean GAAP, the Bank has established allowances related to the undrawn available credit lines and contingent loans in accordance with the FMC. Prior to the adoption of IFRS 9, IAS 39 only permitted allowances following internal models based on incurred debt. With the adoption of IFRS 9, provisions for contingent loans are calculated based on expected credit loss. The Bank has adjusted its Audited Consolidated Financial Statements accordingly.

These differences do not materially impact our financial statements.

Deferred taxes

This provision is made in accordance with the Bank’s internal policy, pursuant to which at least 30% of net income for the period is distributed, except in the case of a contrary resolution adopted at the respective shareholders’ meeting by unanimous vote of the outstanding shares. While the Bank uses the same policy under Chilean GAAP and IFRS, the net income used to calculate the provision is adjusted in accordance with IFRS principles. However for the distribution of dividends, the Bank uses the net income according to Chilean GAAP.

Provision for mandatory dividends

This provision is made in accordance with the Bank’s internal policy, pursuant to which at least 30% of net income for the period is distributed, except in the case of a contrary resolution adopted at the respective shareholders’ meeting by unanimous vote of the outstanding shares. While the Bank uses the same policy under Chilean GAAP and IFRS, the net income used to calculate the provision is adjusted in accordance with IFRS principles. However for the distribution of dividends, the Bank uses the net income according to Chilean GAAP.

Please see Note 36 to our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, for a reconciliation of our Chilean Bank GAAP balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 and income statement for the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 to IFRS.

| C. | Operating Results

Chilean Economy

All of our operations and substantially all of our customers are located in Chile. Accordingly, our financial condition and results of operations are substantially dependent upon economic conditions prevailing in Chile. In 2018, the Chilean economy grew approximately 4.0% compared to 1.5% in 2017. During 2019 the Chilean economy has been growing at a slower rate, negatively affected by the fall in global growth due to the China-U.S. trade war and social unrest in Chile since October 2019.

As of December 2018, the unemployment rate was 7.0% compared to 6.4% in 2017. The higher unemployment rate in 2018 was due to a large increase of persons seeking to enter the workforce in light of enhanced domestic economic growth and the influx of immigrants from various Latin American nations. As of September 2019, the unemployment rate has stabilized at 7.0%. However, as a result of the social unrest that began in October 2019, the unemployment rate is expected to increase in the fourth quarter of 2019.

The exchange rate depreciated in 2018 by 13.1% compared to an appreciation of 7.8% in 2017. The exchange rate depreciated an additional 4.4% as of September 30, 2019 and a further 19.1% depreciation since October 18, 2019, when the more serious social unrest erupted, to a record of Ch$828.25 on November 29, 2019. Despite this depreciation, CPI inflation remained low at a 2.2% annual rate as of September 30, 2019. Given the slower economic growth in the first nine months of 2019 and an inflation rate consistently below the Central Bank’s target of 3%, the Central Bank has been relaxing monetary policy throughout much of 2019. The current Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) is 1.75% compared to 2.75% at the end of 2018. Chile’s economic growth is not expected to improve in 2020 and inflation is expected to continue to remain below 3%, with our current estimate at 2.7% for 2019 and 2.6% in 2020. As a result, we expect the Central Bank to continue lowering the MPR. However we cannot assure you that this monetary policy will not be affected by the recent social unrest in Chile.

The growth of the Chilean banking sector evolved in line with overall economic developments and the acquisition carried out by Chilean banks of loan portfolios previously owned by non-banks. Total loans as of September 30, 2019, in the Chilean financial system, excluding loans held abroad by Chilean banks, and grew 11.5% year-on-year. Total customer deposits (defined as time deposits plus checking accounts), excluding amounts held by Chilean banks abroad increased 6.1% year-on-year as of September 30, 2019. The non-performing loan (defined as loans with an installment that is at least 90 days past-due) to total loans ratio remained stable at 1.9% as of September 30, 2019, compared to 1.9% as of December 31, 2018.

Segmentation criteria

The Bank manages and measures the performance of its operations by business segments. The information disclosed in this note is not necessarily comparable to that of other financial institutions, since it is based on management’s internal information system by segment. Inter-segment transactions are conducted under normal arm’s length commercial terms and conditions. Each segment’s assets, liabilities, and income include items directly attributable to the segment to which they can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Due to changes aimed at improving relations with its customers and streamlining processes, the Bank has modified its internal structure: these changes consist in internal components (the aggregation of subsegments) but do not modify the existing segments or their managers. For this reason, the disclosure has been adapted (simplified) to reflect how the Bank is currently managed. Under IFRS 8, the Bank has aggregated operating segments with similar economic characteristics according to the aggregation criteria specified in the standard. A reporting segment consists of clients that are offered differentiated but, considering how their performance is measured, are homogenous, thus they form part of the same reporting segment. Overall, this aggregation has no significant impact on the understanding of the nature and effects of the Bank’s business activities and the economic environment. The information relating to 2019 and 2018 has been prepared using the current criteria so that the figures presented are comparable. The Bank’s reportable segments are (i) Retail banking, (ii) Middle-market, (iii) Corporate and Investment Banking and (iv) Corporate Activities (“Other”).

Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

The following discussion and tables presents financial information for Santander-Chile as of the dates and for each of the periods indicated. Financial information for Santander-Chile as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 has been derived from our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with local Chilean Bank GAAP. These consolidated financial statements differ in some respects from our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and included in the 2018 20-F. See “—B. Differences between IFRS and Chilean Bank GAAP.”

The following table should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this Report.

Results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 decreased 0.2% to Ch$436,301 million compared to the same period of 2018. Our return on annualized average equity in the period was 16.8% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 18.3% in the same period in 2018.

Net operating profit before loan losses in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 was Ch$1,419,909 million, an increase of 3.0% compared to the same period of 2018. Our net interest income decreased 1.5% compared to the same period in 2018. Our net interest margin decreased to 4.0% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 from 4.4% in the corresponding period of 2018. Net interest margins were mainly negatively affected by the lower UF inflation rate in 2018 compared to 2019.

Net fees and commission income decreased 5.8% to Ch$210,384 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily caused by lower fees in the middle market and corporate and investment banking segments, which were negatively affected by lower economic growth in the year, as well as a 26.5% decrease in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to the lower collection of insurance-related fees, mainly property and casualty, due to a change in methodology for estimating incident rates. This was partially offset by fee growth in various products in the retail banking and middle-market segments, primarily due to a positive client base, cross-selling and product growth.

Total financial transactions, net, which is the sum of net income from financial operations and foreign exchange profit (loss), totaled Ch$152,575 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 120.1% compared to the same period in 2018. These results include the results of our Treasury Division’s trading business and financial transactions with customers, as well as the results of our Financial Management Division. Client treasury services totaled Ch$103,989 million in the nine-month period ended September 2019, a rise of 67.4% compared to the same period in 2018 due to higher volatility in interest rate and foreign exchange markets that resulted in higher demand for hedging and a rise in business volumes of tailor-made treasury and transactional banking services to large corporate clients. The results from non-client treasury income increased 575.3% and totaled a gain of Ch$48,586 million in the nine-month period ended September 2019 compared to Ch$7,195 million in the same period in 2018. This increase was mainly due to larger income generated from the sale of fixed income instruments classified as available for sale, following a sharp decline in long-term rates in the local market.

Other operating income totaled a gain of Ch$15,920 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, compared to Ch$28,757 million in the same period in 2018. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the income from the assets received in lieu of payment and the recovery of assets previously charged-off and lower income from the release of generic provisions for non-credit contingencies.

Provisions for loan losses, net of recoveries totaled Ch$268,443 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 representing a 6.6% increase compared to the same period of 2018. Provisions for loan losses (excluding recoveries and charge-offs during the period) decreased 1.8% as a result of a moderate improvement in asset quality in the period. Non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans improved from 2.2% as of September 30, 2018 to 2.0% as of September 30, 2019. Provision expenses in the period also included the impact of incorporating the changes to the Bank’s provisioning models for commercial loans analyzed on a group basis in accordance with the Circulars No. 3,638 and No. 3,647 issued by the FMC. The impact of implementing this regulation led to an increase of approximately 4% of our stock of provisions for credit risk, or Ch$31 billion, which is included in the results of provision for loans losses.

Charge-offs of loans totaled Ch$111,678 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 17.6% compared to the same period of 2018. This was mainly due to acceleration of legal and collection proceedings related to various specific lenders, mainly in the middle-market segment, which permitted the Bank to accelerate the charge-off period of these clients.

Recovery of loans previously charged-off decreased 5.7% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period of 2018, primarily due to 13.4% and 20.4% decreases in recoveries for commercial loans and mortgage loans, respectively, partially offset by higher gains from the sale of charged-off loans.

As a result of the factors mentioned above, net operating profit increased 2.2% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to September 30, 2018 and totaled Ch$1,151,466 million.

Operating expenses increased 5.2% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The efficiency ratio was 40.6% for September 30, 2019 compared to 40.0% for September 30, 2018. 2.2% of this increase is attributable to an increase in personnel salaries and expenses mainly due to higher benefit costs and severance payments partially offset by a decrease in our headcount.

Administrative expenses decreased 2.7% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the corresponding period in 2018, mainly due to the implementation of IFRS 16 during 2019, which led to certain rental expenses being recorded under the depreciation and amortization line item. Excluding this effect, administrative expenses increased 11.2% in the period, mainly due to IT investments to develop the Bank’s digital platform and branch renovations.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 35.9% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 and totaled Ch$78,441 million. This rise was mainly due to the adoption of IFRS 16 in 2019 that resulted in certain branch rental expenses being reclassified as depreciation and amortization. Excluding this impact, amortization and depreciation expenses would have decreased 8.3% in the period.

Other operating expenses were Ch$39,640 million in the first nine months of 2019, a 22.9% increase compared to the same period in 2018, mainly due to higher costs from life insurance and general product insurance policies.

23

Income from investments in associates and other companies totaled Ch$821 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of 23.1% compared to the same period of 2018. This is largely a result of the fact that we are currently in the process of selling our equity participation in Transbank S.A., Redbanc S.A. and sold our participation in Nexus S.A. on October 19, 2019. For this reason, the results from our investment in these companies, which provide services for credit card transactions, ATMs and credit card processing, respectively, are no longer recorded in this line item and are now considered as net income from discontinued operations.

Total income tax expense by the Bank in the first nine months of 2019 totaled Ch$117,265 million, a 5.2% decrease compared to the same period in 2018, mainly due to a 1.6% decrease in net income before taxes. The Bank paid an effective tax rate of 21.2% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to 22.1% in the first nine months of 2018.

(1) | Consists mainly of net interest income from the Financial Management Division and the cost of funding our fixed income trading portfolio. Each segment obtains funding from its clients. Any surplus deposits are transferred to the Financial Management Division, which in turn makes such excess available to other areas that need funding. The Financial Management Division also sells the funds it obtains in the institutional funding market at a transfer price equal to the market price of the funds. This segment also includes intra-segment income and activities not assigned to a given segment or product line.

(2) | Net interest margin is annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 Our net interest income totaled Ch$1,041,030 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of 1.5% from Ch$1,056,767 million in the same period of 2018. Average interest earning assets increased 7.2% in the same period, driven mainly by lending in the Retail banking and Middle-market segments.

While interest income from our reporting segments grew 1.2% during the period, net interest margin in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased to 4.0% compared to 4.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to the lower UF inflation in the first nine months of 2019. Because the Bank has more interest earning assets indexed to the UF than interest bearing liabilities, the lower inflation rate in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the first nine months of 2018 caused our average nominal interest rate earned on interest earning assets indexed to the UF to decrease from 6.2% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 to 5.6% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018.

The average nominal interest rate for interest earning assets denominated in pesos decreased from 8.7% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 to 8.4% in the same period of 2018. This reduction was mainly due to a lower yielding loan mix because to larger growth in commercial loans and mortgages, which tend to be lower yielding, and a lower rate environment that has reduced yields and triggered higher levels of refinancing.

Average nominal interest rate earned on interest earning assets |  | Sept 30, 2019 |  |  | Sept 30, 2018 |
Ch$ |  |  | 8.4 | % |  |  | 8.7 | %
UF |  |  | 5.6 | % |  |  | 6.2 | %
Foreign currencies |  |  | 3.9 | % |  |  | 3.3 | %
Total |  |  | 6.5 | % |  |  | 6.8 | %

The average rate paid on all of our interest bearing liabilities remained stable at 3.5% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. On the one hand, the rate paid on UF denominated liabilities decreased from 5.4% to 4.8% in the periods being analyzed, as a result of the lower UF inflation in 2019 compared to 2018. On the other hand, the average nominal interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities denominated in pesos increased 20 basis points to 3.4%. Despite the fact that the Central Bank lowered the monetary policy rate by 75 basis points in 2019 to 2.0%, on average it was still higher than the rate set by the Central Bank in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, resulting in a higher funding costs in nominal pesos, mainly time deposits. The depreciation of the peso also resulted in a higher average nominal rate paid over liabilities denominated in foreign currency.

Average nominal interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities |  | Sept 30, 2019 |  |  | Sept 30, 2018 |
Ch$ |  |  | 3.4 | % |  |  | 3.2 | %
UF |  |  | 4.8 | % |  |  | 5.4 | %
Foreign currencies |  |  | 2.4 | % |  |  | 2.1 | %
Total |  |  | 3.5 | % |  |  | 3.5 | %

The changes in net interest income by segment in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 as compared to 2018 were as follows:

| ● | Net interest income from Retail banking decreased 0.5%. The balance of loans in this segment rose 8.8% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019. Despite this increase in the loan portfolio, our continued focus on less riskier client, mainly higher income earners, and the lower rate environment, negatively affected margins in this segment. The highest growing loan product was residential mortgage loans, which also experienced high levels of refinancing as long-term rates fell considerably during the year. Time deposits costs also decreased in this segment, but at a slower pace.

| ● | Net interest income from the Middle-market segment increased 8.7%, higher than the loan growth of 5.1% in this segment also due to improvements in funding costs. Loan growth has been more selective, focusing on the potential return net of risk with a focus on cash management, which is positive for margin growth, such as the spread between the rate on deposits and the Central Bank rate.

| ● | Net interest income in Corporate and Investment banking decreased 2.7% primarily driven by a decrease of 12.4% in loan balances in this segment. Negative loan growth and a lower rate environment negatively affected margins in this segment. This was partially offset by the growth of non-lending products especially cash management, which had a positive impact on funding costs.

25

| ● | Other net interest income consists mainly of net interest income from the Bank’s ALCO, which includes the available-for-sale investment portfolio, deposits in the Central Bank, the financial cost of supporting our cash position and investment portfolio for trading, the interest income from which is recognized as net income from financial operations and not interest income. The result of the Bank’s inflation gap is also included in this line. The net interest income included as “other” decreased from a gain of Ch$74,324 million in the first nine months of 2019 to a gain of Ch$46,943 million in the first nine months of 2018. This was due to the lower inflation rate in the first nine months of 2019. As the Bank has more assets than liabilities linked to inflation when inflation decreases, margins also decrease. The lower rate environment also lowered the yield earned by the Bank’s ALCO over its available for sale investment portfolio.

Fee and commission income

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Net fees and commission income decreased 5.8% to Ch$210,384 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was caused by lower fees in the Corporate and Investment banking segment as a result of lower economic growth during 2019 and was partially offset by continued positive client base, cross-selling and product growth that drove fee growth in the Retail banking and the Middle-market segments. The following table shows our client growth for the periods indicated:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, 2019 |  |  | % Change |
Total clients (1) |  |  | 3,411,170 |  |  |  | (0.8 | %)
Active clients (2) |  |  | 1,493,642 |  |  |  | 3.3 | %

The following table sets forth certain components of our income from services (net of fees paid to third parties directly connected to providing those services, principally fees relating to credit card processing and ATM network administration) in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |

Others |  |  | 43,313 |  |  |  | 58,285 |  |  |  | (25.7 | %)
Total fees and commission income, net |  |  | 210,384 |  |  |  | 223,447 |  |  |  | (5.8 | %)

Fees from credit, debit and ATM cards decreased 4.6% in the first nine months of 2019. This was mainly due to adjustments made to our cobranding mileage program with Latam Airlines, resulting in higher credit card expenses, which led to a decrease in fees and commissions income, net from credit, debt and ATM cards in the period.

26

Fees from collections decreased 26.5% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to the lower collection of insurance related fees, mainly property and casualty insurance on mortgage loans due to a change in the methodology for estimating incident rates.

Insurance brokerage fees increased 29.1%, primarily due to positive cross-selling efforts to clients through online services, as well as in branches.

Fees from letters of credit and other contingent operations increased 3.7% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. During the period the activity of our international and foreign trade financing businesses with clients benefitted from the depreciation of the peso as most revenues are in U.S. dollars.

Fees from checking accounts increased 6.3% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was mainly due to a rise in the Bank’s checking account base. The amount of clients with a checking account rose 9.4% in the nine month period ended September 2019, totaling 1,046,743.

Brokerage and custody fees decreased 0.3% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018 due to lower activity in the local equity market during the year.

Fees from lines of credit increased 32.4% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018, primarily driven by the rise in checking accounts with lines of credit attached.

The 25.7% decrease in other fee income in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018 was mainly due to a fall in advisory and investment banking fees in Corporate and Investment Banking due to lower transaction volume in 2019 compared to the previous period. Other fees also include fees from brokerage of mutual funds, which increased 1.7% to Ch$35,031 million. Though the Bank is no longer in the asset management business, it serves as an exclusive broker for Santander Asset Management. The increase during the period is mainly due to efforts to move our clients from time deposits, that are less attractive to our clients in the lower interest rate environment, to mutual funds.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated our fee income broken down by segment and sub-segment for the periods indicated:

Total fees and commission income, net |  |  | 210,384 |  |  |  | 223,447 |  |  |  | (5.8 | %)

Fees from Retail banking increased 2.9% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018 mainly driven by insurance brokerage, checking account fees, lines of credit fees and asset management fees. During the period, this growth has been partially offset by the decrease in card fees as mentioned above.

Fees from the Middle-market segment increased 3.6%, primarily due to higher fees from letters of credit and cash management, partially offset by a decrease in investment banking fees due to lower economic growth.

Fees from the Corporate and Investment banking segment decreased 25.0% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. In 2018, the Bank won an important share of the investment banking, cash management and advisory services for the large projects being developed in Chile. The amount of these projects diminished significantly in the first nine months of 2019.

Fees in Other decreased Ch$2,931 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018 to a loss of Ch$9,014 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to a change in the methodology for estimating incident rates. This concept has not been segmented.

Total financial transactions, net |  |  | 152,575 |  |  |  | 69,312 |  |  |  | 120.1 | %

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Total financial transactions, net, which is the sum of net income from financial operations and foreign exchange profit (loss), totaled Ch$152,575 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 120.1% compared to the same period in 2018. These results include the results of our Treasury Division’s trading business and financial transactions with customers, as well as results from our Financial Management Division.

Internal Bank policy does not allow significant foreign currency mismatches and requires that the results included in Total financial transactions, net include not only the market-to-market of our foreign currency spot position, but also the results of the derivatives used to hedge currency risk. The mark-to-market of our spot position is included in the line item Foreign exchange profit (loss), net. This line item also includes the effect of those derivatives accounted for under hedge accounting rules. The derivatives used to hedge foreign currency risk are classified as trading and included in the line item Net income from financial operations. For more details regarding our management and exposure to foreign currency risk, see “Item 4.— Market Risk: Qualitative Disclosure—Market risk – local and foreign financial management.”

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our net income (loss) from financial operations:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |

Net income (loss) from financial operations |  |  | 28,609 |  |  |  | 15,370 |  |  |  | 86.1 | %

The results from net income (loss) from financial operations totaled a gain of Ch$28,609 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to a gain of Ch$15,370 million in the same period in 2017. This increase was mainly due to:

| (i) | Gains (losses) in the sub-item derivatives classified as trading. Movements in foreign currency and local versus foreign interest rates affect this line item because it includes the valuation adjustments of our derivatives classified as trading, which are mainly comprised of forwards, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps. In the first nine months of 2019, the average exchange rate in this period depreciated 4.4% compared to an average depreciation of 7.5% in the same period in 2018. At the same time, local rates fell sharply and the yield curve flattened. The latter resulted in a larger loss from derivatives classified as trading. These derivatives are mainly economic hedges for the Bank’s funding risk in U.S. dollars through interbank loans, deposits in foreign currency and commercial paper.

| (ii) | The 38.8% higher gains from trading investments was mainly due to the sharp decline in rates across the Chilean portfolio in the first nine months of 2019. In this line item, the mark-to-market and interest income of the trading fixed income portfolio are recognized. This fixed income portfolio is mainly comprised of Central Bank instruments and Chilean Treasury sovereign debt.

28

| (iii) | The results from our available-for-sale portfolio increased significantly to Ch$49,734 million in the nine month-period ended September 30, 2019 due to higher realized gains from the available-for-sale-portfolio, especially following the sharp decline in local rates in the third quarter of 2019.

| (iv) | Other results totaled a gain of Ch$4,407 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to a loss of Ch$590 million in the same period of 2018. This was mainly due to higher results from the sale of charged-off loans that totaled Ch$3,270 million in the period compared to Ch$792 million in the same period in 2018.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our net results from foreign exchange profit (loss):

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |
|  | (in millions of Ch$) |
Net profit or loss from foreign currency exchange differences |  |  | (57,234 | ) |  |  | (85,994 | ) |  |  | (33.4 | %)
Hedge-accounting derivatives |  |  | 176,881 |  |  |  | 133,035 |  |  |  | 33.0 | %
Translation gains and losses over assets and liabilities indexed to foreign currencies, net |  |  | 4,319 |  |  |  | 6,901 |  |  |  | (37.4 | %)
Net results from foreign exchange profit (loss) |  |  | 123,966 |  |  |  | 53,942 |  |  |  | 129.8 | %

The net result from foreign exchange transactions totaled a gain of Ch$123,966 million in the nine month period ended September 2019 compared to Ch$53,942 million in the same period of 2018. This increase was mainly due to the following factors:

| (i) | Included in these results is the sub-line item Net profit or loss from foreign currency exchange differences which totaled a loss of Ch$57,234 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to a loss of Ch$85,994 million in the same period of 2018. This result includes the mark-to-market of the Bank’s spot foreign currency position and results from our client foreign currency business, such as currency transactions and market making. In the first nine months of 2019, the average peso to dollar exchange rate depreciated 4.4% compared to an average depreciation of 7.5% in such exchange rate in the same period in 2018. Given that we maintain net liability spot position in foreign currency, mainly US$, this generated the net loss in this sub-line item.

| (ii) | Results from the sub-item hedge-accounting derivative that are used to hedge the foreign currency risk of our long-term foreign currency funding. These derivatives produced a gain of Ch$176,881 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to a gain of Ch$133,035 million in the same period of 2018. These results are attributable to the exchange rate movement described above. The derivatives under hedge accounting are mainly derivatives used to hedge long-term bond funding in foreign currency.

| (iii) | Finally, the Bank has some assets and liabilities that are in Chilean pesos, but indexed to foreign currency. This position produced a translation gain in the first nine months of 2019 of Ch$4,319 million. This exposure is also hedged.

In order to more easily compare the results from financial transactions, net, we present the following table that separates these results by lines of business.

(1) | The Financial Management Division manages the structural interest rate risk, the structural position in inflation-indexed assets and liabilities, capital requirements and liquidity levels. The aim of the Financial Management Division is to provide stability and continuity in our net interest income from commercial activities, and to ensure that we comply with internal and regulatory limits regarding liquidity, regulatory capital, reserve requirements and market risk.

29

Client treasury services totaled Ch$103,989 million in the nine-month period ended September 2019, a rise of 67.4% compared to the same period in 2018 due to higher volatility in interest rate and foreign exchange markets that resulted in higher demand for hedging and a rise in business volumes of tailor-made treasury and transactional banking services to large corporate clients. These results may vary year-to-year as some large operations with corporate clients may not be repeated in subsequent years.

The results from non-client treasury income increased 575.3% and totaled a gain of Ch$48,586 million in the nine-month period ended September 2019 compared to Ch$7,195 million in the same period in 2018. These results include the income from sale of loans, including charged-off loans, proprietary trading and the results from our Financial Management Division. This department manages the structural interest rate risk, the structural position in inflation-indexed assets and liabilities, capital requirements and liquidity levels. The aim of the Financial Management Division is to provide stability and continuity in our net interest income from commercial activities, and to ensure that we comply with internal and regulatory limits regarding liquidity, regulatory capital, reserve requirements and market risk. The increase in this Division results was mainly due to larger revenue generated from the sale of fixed income instruments classified as available for sale, following the sharp decline in long-term rates in the local market.

Other operating income totaled a gain of Ch$15,920 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, compared to Ch$28,757 million in the corresponding period in 2018. This decrease was mainly due to (i) a decrease in the income from the assets received in lieu of payment and the recovery of assets previously charged-off; and (ii) lower income from the release of generic provisions for non-credit contingencies.

(2) | Non-performing loans include the aggregate unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest on all loans with at least one installment at least 90 days past-due.

(3) | Impaired loans include: (A) for loans individually evaluated for impairment, (i) the carrying amount of all loans to clients that are rated C1 through C6 and (ii) the carrying amount of loans to an individual client with a loan that is non-performing, regardless of category, excluding residential mortgage loans, if the past-due amount on the mortgage loan is less than 90 days; and (B) for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, (i) the carrying amount of total loans to a client, when a loan to that client is non-performing or has been renegotiated, excluding performing residential mortgage loans, and (ii) if the loan that is non-performing or renegotiated is a residential mortgage loan, all loans to that client.

(4) | Allowance for loan losses for loans and accounts receivable from customers, including Ch$8 million as of September 30, 2019, Ch$28 million as of September 30, 2018 in allowance for loan losses for interbank loans.

(5) | Calculated as allowance for loan losses divided by non-performing loans.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Provisions for loan losses, net of recoveries totaled Ch$268,443 million in the first nine months of 2019, an increase of 6.6% compared to the amount of provisions recorded in the same period of 2018.

Provision for loan losses, which includes the full amount of provisions recognized as a result of loan growth and change in risk totaled Ch$220,867 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of 1.8% compared to the same period of 2018. This was mainly due to growth of the loan portfolio accompanied by a slight improvement in asset quality. Impaired loans over total loans reached 5.8% as of September 30, 2019 compared to 6.0% as of September 30, 2018 and non-performing loans compared to total loans improved from 2.2% to 2.0% in the same periods being analyzed.

At the same time in 2019, the Bank re-calibrated its consumer loan provisioning model and implemented a standard provisioning model for commercial loans analyzed on a group basis as mandated by the FMC. In anticipation of the recalibration, we recognized additional provisions of Ch$20 billion in the third quarter of 2018 and released this additional provision in April 2019 upon implementation of the recalibration. See Note 28 to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

In accordance with the Circulars No. 3,638 and No. 3,647 issued by the FMC, as of July 1, 2019, the Bank began applying the standard provisioning model for commercial loans analyzed on a group basis. The impact of implementing this regulation implied an increase of approximately 4%, or Ch$31 billion of the stock of provisions for credit risk, which is included in the results of provision for loans losses.

31

Charge-offs of loans totaled Ch$111,678 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 17.6% compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was primarily due to (i) a 102.2% increase in charge-offs in commercial loans as a result of legal and collection proceedings for various specific lenders, mainly in the Middle-market segment, that permitted the Bank to accelerate the charge-off period for these clients and (ii) a 31.4% increase in mortgage loans as a result of high loan growth in these products in the last few years, as well as the fact that we were comparing to a low level in this portfolio in the first nine months of 2018, partially offset by a 19.3% decrease in charge-offs for consumer loans as a result of an improvement in asset quality. The following table shows charge-offs by type of loan for the periods indicated:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |

Commercial loans |  |  | (51,457 | ) |  |  | (25,447 | ) |  |  | 102.2 | %
Total charge-offs |  |  | (111,678 | ) |  |  | (94,936 | ) |  |  | 17.6 | %

Recovery of loans previously charged-off decreased 5.7% and totaled Ch$64,102 million in the nine month period being analyzed. This decrease was primarily due to 13.4% and 20.4% decreases in recoveries for commercial loans and mortgage loans, respectively, partially offset by higher gains from the sale of charged-off loans. In some instances, we will sell a portfolio of charged-off loans to a third party. Gain (loss) on these charged-off loans is recognized as net income from financial transactions. In the first nine months of 2019 gains from the sale of charged-off loans totaled Ch$3,270 million, as compared to Ch$792 million in the first nine months of 2018.

The following table shows recoveries of loans previously charged-off by type of loan for the periods indicated:

The provision expense for consumer loans decreased 7.2% during the first nine months of 2019. This was mostly due to improvements in asset quality of this portfolio, mainly due to the Bank’s on-going strategy of focusing consumer loan growth among mid to high income earners. The consumer non-performing loans ratio improved from 2.0% in September 2018 to 1.6% in September 2019.

32

The provision expense for loan loss for commercial loans increased 56.4% mainly due to increase charge-offs as described above and to the impact from the change in the provisioning model for commercial loans analyzed on a group basis. Asset quality improved in commercial loans with the NPL ratio improving from 2.6% as of September 30, 2018 to 2.4% as of September 2019.

Provisions for mortgage loans increased from Ch$241 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to Ch$6,489 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This was mainly due to the high growth of mortgage loans in recent periods. Overall asset quality continued to improve with the impaired mortgage loan ratio growing from 4.8% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018 to 4.9% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, whereas non-performing loan ratio improved from 1.7% to 1.5%.

Net provisions expense from retail banking increased 21.2% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to September 30, 2018. This was mainly due to the change in provisioning model for commercial loans analyzed on a group basis, which mostly includes lending to SMEs.

Net provision expense from the Middle-market segment increased 65.2% due to the acceleration of charge-offs mentioned above.

Net provision expense from Corporate investment banking totaled provisions of Ch$2,770 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to a release of provisions of Ch$226 million for the same period of 2018, due to provisions set aside for specific clients in this loan book.

Total provisions, net included in Other reached a gain of Ch$16,946 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to an expense of Ch$25,367 million in 2018. In Other provision expense, we mainly include the impact of the fluctuation of the exchange rate on our provision expense. The recognition of Ch$20 billion of additional provisions in the first nine months of 2018 and the reversal of these provisions in the first nine months of 2019 is also recognized here.

We believe that our loan loss allowances are currently adequate for all known and estimated incurred losses.

Operating expenses

The following table sets forth information regarding our operating expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |
|  | (in millions of Ch$) |
Personnel salaries and expenses |  |  | (304,293 | ) |  |  | (297,692 | ) |  |  | 2.2 | %
Administrative expenses |  |  | (178,046 | ) |  |  | (183,080 | ) |  |  | (2.7 | %)
Depreciation and amortization |  |  | (78,441 | ) |  |  | (57,738 | ) |  |  | 35.9 | %
Impairment |  |  | - |  |  |  | (39 | ) |  |  | --% |
Other operating expenses |  |  | (39,640 | ) |  |  | (32,266 | ) |  |  | 22.9 | %
Total operating expenses |  |  | (600,420 | ) |  |  | (570,815 | ) |  |  | 5.2 | %
Efficiency ratio(1) |  |  | 40.6 | % |  |  | 40.0 | % |  |  |  |

(1) | The efficiency ratio is the ratio of total operating expenses to total operating income. Total operating income consists of net interest income, fee income, financial transactions, net and other operating income, net.

For the nine months ended September 3, 2019 and 2018. Operating expenses in the first nine months of 2019 increased 5.2% compared to the corresponding period in 2018. The efficiency ratio was 40.6% for September 30, 2019 and 40.0% for September 30, 2018.

The 2.2% increase in personnel salaries and expenses was mainly due to higher costs of benefits following the signing of a new collective bargaining agreement with the Bank’s main union in 2018 and higher severance payments. In the same period, the Bank’s headcount fell 3.5% to 11,037 employees as of September 30, 2019.

Administrative expenses decreased 2.7% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the corresponding period in 2018, mainly due to the implementation of IFRS 16 during 2019. As a result, rental expenses for branches are now recognized in the line item depreciation and amortization. Excluding this effect, administrative expenses increased 11.2% in the period, mainly due to IT investments to develop the Bank’s digital platform, which is allowing the Bank to consolidate the branches and create efficiencies in the long-term. This includes: (i) SuperDigital, a mobile app, which provides non-banked clients access to transactional banking services with a digital prepaid debit and credit card, (ii) Santander Life, a digital banking service that rewards clients for positive credit and saving behavior through the accumulation of “Merits” which results in reduced interest rates on loan products, (iii) Klare, a digital open platform being developed for selling insurances products, (iv) other digital processes for back office functions and (v) the opening and transformation of branches into the new WorkCafé format. As of September 30, 2019, the Bank had a total of 381 branches, 50 of which were in the WorkCafé format. The table below provides a breakdown of the Bank’s branch network during the periods indicated.

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |
Traditional branches |  |  | 252 |  |  |  | 263 |  |  |  | (4.2 | %)
WorkCafé |  |  | 50 |  |  |  | 28 |  |  |  | 78.6 | %
Middle-market centers |  |  | 7 |  |  |  | 8 |  |  |  | (12.5 | %)
Santander Select |  |  | 43 |  |  |  | 47 |  |  |  | (8.5 | %)
Payment centers and others |  |  | 29 |  |  |  | 31 |  |  |  | (6.5 | %)
Total branches |  |  | 381 |  |  |  | 377 |  |  |  | 1.1 | %

34

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 35.9% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 and totaled Ch$78,441 million. This increase was mainly due to the adoption of IFRS 16 in 2019 that reclassified certain branch rental expenses as depreciation and amortization. Excluding this impact, amortization and depreciation expenses would have decreased 8.3% in the period. There were no impairment charges up to September 2019, compared to Ch$39 million for the first nine months of 2018.

Other operating expenses were Ch$39,640 million in the first nine months of 2019, a 22.9% increase compared to the same period in 2018. This increase in other operating expenses was mainly due to higher costs from life insurance and general product insurance policies, which totaled Ch$14,472 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018, increasing a 161.6%. This higher cost of insurance was to cover cybersecurity risk for the Bank and our clients. See “Note 32—Other operating income and expenses” to our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for more detail on Other operating expenses.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our personnel salaries, administrative and depreciation and amortization expenses broken down by business segment. These amounts exclude impairment and other operating expenses.

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |
|  | (in millions of Ch$) |
Retail banking |  |  | (428,194 | ) |  |  | (410,417 | ) |  |  | 4.3 | %
Middle-market |  |  | (71,726 | ) |  |  | (68,331 | ) |  |  | 5.0 | %
Corporate and investment banking |  |  | (50,438 | ) |  |  | (48,493 | ) |  |  | 4.0 | %
Other |  |  | (10,422 | ) |  |  | (11,269 | ) |  |  | (7.5 | %)
Total personnel, administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization (1) |  |  | (560,780 | ) |  |  | (538,510 | ) |  |  | 4.1 | %

(1) | Excludes impairment and other operating expenses.

By business segment, the 4.1% increase in costs excluding impairment and other operating expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the corresponding period in 2018 was mainly due to higher IT investments across all business segments and the costs of branch transformations in Retail banking.

Income from investments in associates and other companies

Income from investments in associates and other companies totaled Ch$821 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of 23.1% compared to the same period of 2018. As described above we are currently in the process of selling our equity participation in Transbank S.A., Redbanc S.A. and Nexus S.A., which provide services for credit card transactions, ATMs and credit card processing, respectively, and thus the following investments in associates were classified as non-current assets held for sale as of the dates indicated:

|  |  |  |  |  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |
As of September 30, |  |  | Participation % |  |  | Assets Ch$mn |  |  | Result Ch$mn |  |  | Result Ch$mn |
Transbank |  |  |  | 25.00 |  |  |  | 19,093 |  |  |  | 1,442 |  |  |  | 3,371 |
Nexus |  |  |  | 12.90 |  |  |  | 2,414 |  |  |  | 136 |  |  |  | 482 |
Redbanc |  |  |  | 33.43 |  |  |  | 2,943 |  |  |  | 121 |  |  |  | 302 |
Total |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 24,450 |  |  |  | 1,699 |  |  |  | 4,155 |

Income tax

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  | % Change |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |
|  | (in millions of Ch$) |
Net income before tax |  |  | 551,867 |  |  |  | 560,889 |  |  |  | (1.6 | %)
Income tax expense |  |  | (117,265 | ) |  |  | (123,761 | ) |  |  | (5.2 | %)
Effective tax rate(1) |  |  | 21.2 | % |  |  | 22.1 | % |  |  |  |

(1) | The effective tax rate is the income tax expense divided by net income before tax.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Total income tax expense by the Bank in the first nine months of 2019 totaled Ch$117,265 million, a 5.2% decrease compared to the same period in 2018. This was mainly due to the 1.6% decrease in net income before taxes in the periods being analyzed. The Bank paid an effective tax rate of 21.2% in the first nine months of 2019 compared to 22.1% in the first nine months of 2018. The lower effective tax rate was mainly due to the lower CPI inflation rate in 2019 compared to 2018. The Bank, in its Chilean tax book accounting, must re-measure its capital each year for the variation in CPI inflation. See “Note 13—Current and Deferred Taxes” of the Consolidated Financial Statements for more detail on income tax expense.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Santander-Chile’s liquidity depends upon its (i) capital, (ii) reserves and (iii) financial investments, including investments in government securities. To cover any liquidity shortfalls and to augment its liquidity position, Santander-Chile has established lines of credit with foreign and domestic banks and also has access to Central Bank borrowings.

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations and commercial commitments by time remaining to maturity. As of the date of this filing, the Bank does not have significant purchase obligations.

Risk-Weighted Assets and Regulatory Capital

We currently have regulatory capital in excess of the minimum requirement under the current Chilean regulations. According to the New General Banking Law, a bank is required to have regulatory capital of at least 8.0% of its risk-weighted assets, net of required loan loss allowances, and paid-in capital and reserves (i.e., core capital) of at least 3.0% of its total assets, net of required loan loss allowances. For these purposes, the regulatory capital of a bank is the sum of: (1) the bank’s core capital; (2) subordinated bonds issued by the bank valued at their placement price for an amount up to 50.0% of its core capital, provided that the value of the bonds is required to be decreased by 20.0% for each year that elapses during the period commencing six years prior to their maturity; and (3) its voluntary allowances for loan losses, for an amount of up to 1.25% of its risk-weighted assets. Santander-Chile does not have goodwill, but if it did, this value would be required to be deducted from regulatory capital. When calculating risk weighted assets, we also include off-balance sheet contingent loans. The merger of Old Santander Chile and Santiago on August 1, 2002 required a special regulatory pre-approval of the SBIF (now the FMC), which was granted on May 16, 2002. The resolution granting this pre-approval imposed a regulatory capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 12.0% for the merged bank. This requirement was reduced to 11.0% by the SBIF (now the FMC) effective January 1, 2005. For purposes of weighing the risk of a bank’s assets, the New General Banking Law considers five different categories of assets, based on the nature of the issuer, the availability of funds, and the nature of the assets and the existence of collateral securing such assets.

37

The following table sets forth our consolidated and risk-weighted assets and regulatory capital as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 as required by the FMC.

Financial Investments

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets trading investments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), “held to maturity” investments, “available-for-sale” investments (AFS) and “loans and accounts receivable from customers.” The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

38

Income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets at FVTPL — Trading investments

Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as at fair value through profit or loss.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

| ● | it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or

| ● | on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Bank manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

| ● | it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

| ● | such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

| ● | the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Bank’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or

| ● | it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 permits the entire combined contract to be designated as at FVTPL.

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘net income (expense) from financial operations’ line item.

Held to maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates that the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment.

Available-for-sale investments (AFS investments)

AFS investments are non-derivatives that are either designated as AFS or are not classified as (a) loans and accounts receivable from customers, (b) held-to-maturity investments or (c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (trading investments).

Financial instruments held by the Bank that are traded in an active market are classified as AFS and are stated at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Bank also has investments in financial instruments that are not traded in an active market but that are also classified as AFS investments and stated at fair value at the end of each reporting period (because the directors consider that fair value can be reliably measured). Changes in the carrying amount of AFS monetary financial assets relating to changes in foreign currency rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method and dividends on AFS equity investments are recognized in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of available-for-sale investments are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of Valuation Adjustment. When the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the investments revaluation reserve is reclassified to profit or loss.

39

Dividends on AFS equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Bank’s right to receive the dividends is established.

The fair value of AFS monetary financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated into Chilean pesos as the described in f) above. The foreign exchange gains and losses that are recognized in profit or loss are determined based on the amortized cost of the monetary asset.

AFS equity investments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured and derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity investments are measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at the end of each reporting period.

Detail regarding the financial investments discussed above is presented below.

Working Capital

As a bank, we satisfy our working capital needs through general funding, the majority of which derives from deposits and other borrowings from the public. (See “Item 3. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Deposits and Other Borrowings” in our 2018 20-F). In our opinion, our working capital is sufficient for our present needs.

Cash Flow

The tables below set forth our main sources of cash. The subsidiaries are not an important source of cash flow for us and therefore have no impact on our ability to meet our cash obligations. No legal or economic restrictions exist on the ability of subsidiaries to transfer funds to us in the form of loans or cash dividends as long as these subsidiaries abide by the regulations of the Ley General de Bancos and the Ley de Sociedad Anónimas regarding loans to related parties and minimum dividend payments. See our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed breakdown of the Bank’s cash flow.

|  | Millions of Ch$ |
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities |  |  | 417,979 |  |  |  | 821,784 |

Our operating activities generated cash of Ch$417,979 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to Ch$821,784 million in the same period in 2018. This decrease was due to a net increase in other assets due to the depreciation of the peso, which resulted in higher threshold amounts on our derivative contracts, partially offset by lower loan growth.

Net cash (used in) provided by investment activities |  |  | (35,568 | ) |  |  | (52,534 | )

During the first nine months of 2019, the Bank’s investment activities consumed cash in an amount of Ch$35,568 million compared to Ch$52,534 million in the same period in 2018. This decrease was mainly due to a greater income from the sale of property, plant and equipment and lower purchases of property, plant and equipment (PP&E). For more information, please see Note 1 b) of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

In the first nine months of 2019 and the first nine months of 2018, the net cash used in financing activities can be mainly explained by the Bank’s annual dividend payment each year.

Other Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Commitments

In the normal course of our business, we are party to transactions with off-balance sheet risk. These transactions expose us to credit risk in addition to amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The most important off-balance sheet item is contingent loans. Contingent loans consist of guarantees granted by us in Ch$, UF and foreign currencies (principally U.S.$), unused letters of credit and commitments to extend credit such as overdraft protection and credit card lines of credit. Such commitments are agreements to lend to a customer at a future date, subject to the customer compliance with the contractual terms. Since a substantial portion of these commitments is expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amount of commitments does not necessarily represent our actual future cash requirements. We use the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as we do for granting loans, therefore, in the opinion of our management, our outstanding commitments represent normal credit risk.

The following table presents the Bank’s outstanding contingent loans as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

|  | As of September 30, |  |  | As of December 31, |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |

Capital Expenditures

The following table reflects capital expenditures in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |
|  | (in millions of Ch$) |
Land and Buildings |  |  | 5,769 |  |  |  | 22,781 |
Machinery, Systems and Equipment |  |  | 14,242 |  |  |  | 11,876 |
Furniture, Vehicles, Other |  |  | 5,017 |  |  |  | 2,896 |
Total |  |  | 25,028 |  |  |  | 37,553 |

The decrease in capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2019 was mainly due to lower expenses for branch remodeling as the Bank reaches its targets for the transformation of branches into the WorkCafé format, partially offset by higher expenses for technological initiatives to improve back-office functions, reduce obsolescence of internal systems and cybersecurity initiatives.

C. Selected Statistical Information

The following information is included for analytical purposes and should be read in conjunction with our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as the discussion in this “Item 3. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.” The UF is linked to, and is adjusted daily to reflect changes in, the previous month’s Chilean consumer price index. See “Item 4.— Market Risk: Quantitative Disclosure—Impact of Inflation.”

Average Balances, Income Earned from Interest-Earning Assets and Interest Paid on Interest-Bearing Liabilities

The average balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, including interest and readjustments received and paid, have been calculated on the basis of daily balances for us on an unconsolidated basis. Such average balances are presented in Chilean pesos, UFs and in foreign currencies (principally U.S. dollars). Figures from our subsidiaries have been calculated on the basis of monthly balances. The average balances of our subsidiaries, except Santander S.A. Agente de Valores, have not been categorized by currency. As such it is not possible to calculate average balances by currency for such subsidiaries on the basis of daily, weekly or monthly balances.

The nominal interest rate has been calculated by dividing the amount of interest and principal changes in the UF index (gain or loss) during the period by the related average balance, both amounts expressed in constant pesos.

Foreign exchange gains or losses on foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities are not included in interest income or expense. When a financial asset becomes credit-impaired and is, therefore, regarded as “Stage 3,” the Bank suspends the interest income recognition in the income statement. Similarly, mark-to-market gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are not included in interest income or expenses. Interest is not recognized on non-performing loans. Non-performing loans that are past-due for 90 days or less have been included in each of the various categories of loans, and therefore affect the various averages. Non-performing loans consist of loans as to which either principal or interest is past-due (i.e., non-accrual loans) and restructured loans earning no interest.

Included in interbank deposits are checking accounts maintained in the Central Bank and foreign banks. Such assets have a distorting effect on the average interest rate earned on total interest-earning assets because currently balances maintained in Chilean peso amounts do not earn interest, and the only balances held in a foreign currency that earn interest are those maintained in U.S. dollars, but those only earn interest on the amounts that are legally required to be held for liquidity purposes. Additionally, this account includes interest earned by overnight investments. Consequently, the average interest earned on such assets is comparatively low. We maintain these deposits in these accounts to comply with statutory requirements and to facilitate international business, rather than to earn income.

The following tables show, by currency of denomination, average balances and, where applicable, interest amounts and real rates for our assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

The loan categories are as follows:

Commercial loans

Commercial loans are long-term and short-term loans, including checking overdraft lines for companies, granted in Chilean pesos, inflation linked, U.S.$ linked or denominated in U.S.$. The interest on these loans is fixed or variable and is used primarily to finance working capital or investments. General commercial loans also include factoring operations.

Foreign trade loans are fixed rate, short-term loans made in foreign currencies (principally U.S.$) to finance imports and exports.

Checking account debtors mainly include mortgage loans (fixed and variable rate) that are inflation-indexed long-term loans with monthly payments of principal and interest secured by a real property mortgage. These loans can be endorsed to a third party.

52

Factoring transactions mainly include short-term loans to companies with a fixed monthly nominal rate backed by a company invoice.

Leasing transactions are agreements for the financial leasing of capital equipment and other property.

Other loans and accounts receivable loans include other loans and accounts payable.

Mortgage loans

Mortgage mutual loans mainly include mortgage loans (fixed and variable rate) that are inflation-indexed long-term loans with monthly payments of principal and interest secured by a real property mortgage. These are financed by issuing mortgage bonds.

Mortgage finance bond backed loans are inflation-indexed, fixed or variable rate, long-term loans with monthly payments of principal and interest secured by a real property mortgage that are financed with mortgage finance bonds. At the time of approval, these types of mortgage loans cannot be more than 75.0% of the lower of the purchase price or the appraised value of the mortgaged property or such loan will be classified as a commercial loan. Mortgage bonds are our general obligations, and we are liable for all principal and accrued interest on such bonds. In addition, if the issuer of a mortgage finance bond becomes insolvent, the New General Banking Law’s liquidation procedures provide that these types of mortgage loans with their corresponding mortgage bonds shall be auctioned as a unit and the acquirer must continue paying the mortgage finance bonds under the same conditions as the original issuer.

Other mortgage mutual loans mainly include mortgage loans (fixed and variable rate) that are inflation-indexed long-term loans with monthly payments of principal and interest secured by a real property mortgage. These are financed by our general borrowings.

Consumer loans

Installment consumer loans are loans to individuals, granted in Chilean pesos, generally on a fixed rate nominal basis, to finance the purchase of consumer goods or to pay for services.

Consumer loans through lines of credit are checking overdraft lines to individuals, granted in Chilean pesos, generally on a fixed rate nominal basis and linked to an individual’s checking account.

Credit card loans include credit card balances subject to nominal fixed rate interest charges.

Classification of Loan Portfolio

The Bank continuously evaluates the entire loan portfolio and contingent loans, as it is established by the FMC, to timely provide the necessary and sufficient provisions to cover expected losses associated with the characteristics of the debtors and their loans, which determine payment behavior and recovery.

The Bank has established allowances to cover probable losses on loans and account receivables in accordance with instructions issued by the Financial Markets Commission (FMC) and models of credit risk rating and assessment approved by the Board’s Committee, including the amendments introduced by Circular No. 3,573 (and its further modifications) applicable as of January 1, 2016 which establishes a standard method for residential mortgage loans and complements and specifies instructions on provisions and loans classified in the impaired portfolio, and subsequent amendments.

The Bank uses the following models established by the FMC, to evaluate its loan portfolio and credit risk:

| ● | Individual assessment - where the Bank assesses a debtor as individually significant when their loans are significant, or when the debtor cannot be classified within a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics, due to its size, complexity or level of exposure

| ● | Group assessment - a group assessment is relevant for analyzing a large number of transactions with small individual balances due from individuals or small companies. The Bank groups debtors with similar credit risk characteristics giving to each group a default probability and recovery rate based on a historical analysis. The Bank has implemented standard models for mortgage loans, established in Circular N°3,573 (modified by Circular N°3,584), and internal models for commercial and consumer loans.

I. Allowances for individual assessment

An individual assessment of commercial debtors is necessary according to the FMC, in the case of companies which, due to their size, complexity or level of exposure, must be known and analyzed in detail.

The analysis of the debtor is primarily focused on their credit quality and their risk category classification of the debtor and of their respective contingent loans and loans These are assigned to one of the following portfolio categories: Normal, Substandard and Impaired. The risk factors considered are: industry or economic sector, owners or managers, financial situation and payment ability, and payment behavior.

54

The portfolio categories and their definitions are as follows:

i. | Normal Portfolio includes debtors with a payment ability that allows them to meet their obligations and commitments. Evaluations of the current economic and financial environment do not indicate that this will change. The classifications assigned to this portfolio are categories from A1 to A6.

ii. | Substandard Portfolio includes debtors with financial difficulties or a significant deterioration of their payment ability. There is reasonable doubt concerning the future reimbursement of the capital and interest within the contractual terms, with limited ability to meet short-term financial obligations. The classifications assigned to this portfolio are categories from B1 to B4.

iii. | Impaired Portfolio includes debtors and their loans where repayment is considered remote, with a reduced or no likelihood of repayment. This portfolio includes debtors who have stopped paying their loans or that indicate that they will stop paying, as well as those who require forced debt restructuration, reducing the obligation or delaying the term of the capital or interest, and any other debtor who is over 90 days overdue in his payment of interest or capital. The classifications assigned to this portfolio are categories from C1 to C6.

Normal and Substandard Portfolio

As part of individual assessment, the Bank classifies debtors into the following categories, assigning them a probability of non-performance (PNP) and severity (SEV), which result in the expected loss percentages.

Portfolio |  | Debtor’s Category |  | Probability of Non-Performance (%) |  |  | Severity (%) |  |  | Expected Loss (%) |
Normal portfolio |  | A1 |  |  | 0.04 |  |  |  | 90.0 |  |  |  | 0.03600 |
|  | A2 |  |  | 0.10 |  |  |  | 82.5 |  |  |  | 0.08250 |
|  | A3 |  |  | 0.25 |  |  |  | 87.5 |  |  |  | 0.21875 |
|  | A4 |  |  | 2.00 |  |  |  | 87.5 |  |  |  | 1.75000 |
|  | A5 |  |  | 4.75 |  |  |  | 90.0 |  |  |  | 4.27500 |
|  | A6 |  |  | 10.00 |  |  |  | 90.0 |  |  |  | 9.00000 |
Substandard portfolio |  | B1 |  |  | 15.00 |  |  |  | 92.5 |  |  |  | 13.87500 |
|  | B2 |  |  | 22.00 |  |  |  | 92.5 |  |  |  | 20.35000 |
|  | B3 |  |  | 33.00 |  |  |  | 97.5 |  |  |  | 32.17500 |
|  | B4 |  |  | 45.00 |  |  |  | 97.5 |  |  |  | 43.87500 |

The Bank first determines all credit exposures, which includes the accounting balances of loans and accounts receivable from customers plus contingent loans, less any amount recovered through executing the financial guarantees or collateral covering the operations. The percentages of expected loss are applied to this exposure. In the case of collateral, the Bank must demonstrate that the value assigned reasonably reflects the value obtainable on disposal of the assets or equity instruments. When the credit risk of the debtor is substituted for the credit quality of the collateral or guarantor, this methodology is applicable only when the guarantor or surety is an entity qualified in an assimilable investment grade by a local or international company rating agency recognized by the FMC. Guaranteed securities cannot be deducted from the exposure amount, only financial guarantees and collateral can be considered.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank must maintain a minimum provision of 0.5% over loans and contingent loans in the normal portfolio.

Impaired Portfolio

The impaired portfolio includes all loans and the entire value of contingent loans of the debtors that are over 90 days overdue on the payment of interest or principal of any loan at the end of the month. It also includes debtors who have been granted a loan to refinance loans over 60 days overdue, as well as debtors who have undergone forced restructuration or partial debt condonation.

55

The impaired portfolio excludes: a) residential mortgage loans, with payments less than 90 days overdue; and, b) loans to finance higher education according to Law 20,027, provided the breach conditions outlined in Circular No. 3,454 of December 10, 2008 are not fulfilled.

The provision for an impaired portfolio is calculated by determining the expected loss rate for the exposure, adjusting for amounts recoverable through available financial guarantees and deducting the present value of recoveries made through collection services after the related expenses.

Once the expected loss range is determined, the related provision percentage is applied over the exposure amount, which includes loans and contingent loans related to the debtor.

The allowance rates applied over the calculated exposure are as follows:

Classification |  | Estimated range of loss |  | Allowance |
C1 |  | Up to 3% |  |  | 2 | %
C2 |  | Greater than 3% and less than 20% |  |  | 10 | %
C3 |  | Greater than 20% and less than 30% |  |  | 25 | %
C4 |  | Greater than 30% and less than 50% |  |  | 40 | %
C5 |  | Greater than 50% and less than 80% |  |  | 65 | %
C6 |  | Greater than 80% |  |  | 90 | %

Loans are maintained in the impaired portfolio until their payment ability is normal, notwithstanding the write off of each particular credit that meets conditions of Title II of Chapter B-2. Once the circumstances that led to classification in the Impaired Portfolio have been overcome, the debtor can be removed from this portfolio once all the following conditions are met:

| i. | the debtor has no obligations of the debtor with the Bank more than 30 days overdue;

| ii. | the debtor has not been granted loans to pay its obligations;

| iii. | at least one of the payments include the amortization of capital;

| iv. | if the debtor has made partial loan payments in the last six months, two payments have already been made;

| v. | if the debtor must pay monthly installments for one or more loans, four consecutive installments have been made;

| vi. | the debtor does not appear to have bad debts in the information provided by the FMC, except for insignificant amounts.

II. Allowances for group assessments

Group assessments are used to estimate allowances required for loans with low balances related to individuals or small companies.

Group assessments require the formation of groups of loans with similar characteristics by type of debtor and loan conditions, in order to establish both the group payment behavior and the recoveries of their defaulted loans, using technically substantiated estimates and prudential criteria. The model used is based on the characteristics of the debtor, payment history, outstanding loans and default among other relevant factors.

The Bank uses methodologies to establish credit risk, based on internal models to estimate the allowances for the group-evaluated portfolio. This portfolio includes commercial loans with debtors that are not assessed individually, mortgage and consumer loans (including installment loans, credit cards and overdraft lines). These methods allow the Bank to independently identify the portfolio behavior and establish the provision required to cover losses arising during the year.

The customers are classified according to their internal and external characteristics into profiles, using a customer-portfolio model to differentiate each portfolio’s risk in an appropriate manner. This is known as the profile allocation method.

56

The profile allocation method is based on a statistical construction model that establishes a relationship through logistic regression between variables (for example default, payment behavior outside the Bank, socio-demographic data) and a response variable which determines the client’s risk, which in this case is over 90 days overdue. Hence, common profiles are established and assigned a Probability of Non-Performance (PNP) and a recovery rate based on a historical analysis known as Severity (SEV).

Therefore, once the customers have been profiled, and the loan’s profile assigned a PNP and a SEV, the exposure at default (EXP) is calculated. This exposure includes the book value of the loans and accounts receivable from the customer, plus contingent loans, less any amount that can be recovered by executing guarantees (for credits other than consumer loans).

Notwithstanding the above, on establishing provisions associated with housing loans, the Bank must recognize minimum provisions according to standard methods established by the FMC for this type of loan. While this is considered to be a prudent minimum base, it does not relieve the Bank of its responsibility to have its own methodologies of determining adequate provisions to protect the credit risk of the portfolio.

Standard method of residential mortgage loan provisions

As of January 1, 2016 and in accordance with Circular No. 3,573 issued by the FMC, the Bank began applying the standard method of provisions for residential mortgage loans. According to this method, the expected loss factor applicable to residential mortgage loans will depend on the default of each loan and the relationship between the outstanding principal of each loan and the value of the associated mortgage guarantee (Loans to Value, LTV) at the end of each month.

The allowance rates applied according to default and LTV are the following:

LTV Range |  | Days overdue at month end |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | 1-29 |  |  |  | 30-59 |  |  |  | 60-89 |  |  |  | Impaired portfolio |
LTV≤40% |  | PNP(%) |  |  | 1.0916 |  |  |  | 21.3407 |  |  |  | 46.0536 |  |  |  | 75.1614 |  |  |  | 100 |
|  | Severity (%) |  |  | 0.0225 |  |  |  | 0.0441 |  |  |  | 0.0482 |  |  |  | 0.0482 |  |  |  | 0.0537 |
|  | Expected Loss (%) |  |  | 0.0002 |  |  |  | 0.0094 |  |  |  | 0.0222 |  |  |  | 0.0362 |  |  |  | 0.0537 |
40%< LTV ≤80% |  | PNP(%) |  |  | 1.9158 |  |  |  | 27.4332 |  |  |  | 52.0824 |  |  |  | 78.9511 |  |  |  | 100 |
|  | Severity (%) |  |  | 2.1955 |  |  |  | 2.8233 |  |  |  | 2.9192 |  |  |  | 2.9192 |  |  |  | 3.0413 |
|  | Expected Loss (%) |  |  | 0.0421 |  |  |  | 0.7745 |  |  |  | 1.5204 |  |  |  | 2.3047 |  |  |  | 3.0413 |
80%< LTV ≤90% |  | PNP(%) |  |  | 2.5150 |  |  |  | 27.9300 |  |  |  | 52.5800 |  |  |  | 79.6952 |  |  |  | 100 |
|  | Severity (%) |  |  | 21.5527 |  |  |  | 21.6600 |  |  |  | 21.9200 |  |  |  | 22.1331 |  |  |  | 22.2310 |
|  | Expected Loss (%) |  |  | 0.5421 |  |  |  | 6.0496 |  |  |  | 11.5255 |  |  |  | 17.6390 |  |  |  | 22.2310 |
LTV >90% |  | PNP(%) |  |  | 2.7400 |  |  |  | 28.4300 |  |  |  | 53.0800 |  |  |  | 80.3677 |  |  |  | 100 |
|  | Severity (%) |  |  | 27.2000 |  |  |  | 29.0300 |  |  |  | 29.5900 |  |  |  | 30.1558 |  |  |  | 30.2436 |
|  | Expected Loss (%) |  |  | 0.7453 |  |  |  | 8.2532 |  |  |  | 15.7064 |  |  |  | 24.2355 |  |  |  | 30.2436 |

LTV =Loan capital/Value of guarantee

If the same debtor has more than one residential mortgage loan with the Bank and one of them over 90 days overdue, all their loans shall be allocated to the impaired portfolio, calculating provisions for each them in accordance with their respective LTV.

For residential mortgage loans related to housing programs and grants from the Chilean government, the allowance rate may be weighted by a factor of loss mitigation (LM), which depends on the LTV percentage and the price of the property in the deed of sale (S), as long as the debtor has contracted auction insurance provided by the Chilean government.

Standard method of commercial loan provisions

In accordance with the Circulars No. 3,638 and No. 3,647 of the FMC, as of July 1, 2019, the Bank began applying the standard model of provisions for student loans or other types of commercial loans. The impact of implementing these regulations implied an increase of approximately 4% of the stock of provisions for credit risk.

57

Prior to the implementation of the standard method, the Bank used its internal models for the determination of group business provisions.

| a. | Commercial leasing operations

For these transactions, the provision factor must be applied to the current value of commercial leasing operations (including the purchase option) and will depend on the delinquency of each transaction, the type of leased asset and the relationship, at closing of each month, between the current value of each transaction and the value of the leased asset (PVB), as indicated in the following tables.

Probability Non-Performance (PNP) by default and type of asset (%)

Default days at month closing |  | Type of asset |
|  | Real estate |  |  | Non real estate |
0 |  |  | 0.79 |  |  |  | 1.61 |
1-29 |  |  | 7.94 |  |  |  | 12.02 |
30-59 |  |  | 28.76 |  |  |  | 40.88 |
60-89 |  |  | 58.76 |  |  |  | 69.38 |
Impaired portfolio |  |  | 100.00 |  |  |  | 100.00 |

Severity (SEV) by stage and type of asset (%)

PVB Stage |  | Real estate |  |  | Non real estate |
PVB ≤ 40% |  |  | 0.05 |  |  |  | 18.2 |
40% < PVB ≤ 50% |  |  | 0.05 |  |  |  | 57.00 |
50% < PVB ≤ 80% |  |  | 5.10 |  |  |  | 68.40 |
80% < PVB ≤ 90% |  |  | 23.20 |  |  |  | 75.10 |
PVB > 90% |  |  | 36.20 |  |  |  | 78.90 |

PVB= Current value of transaction/leased asset value

The determination of the PVB relationship will be made considering the appraisal value, expressed in UF for real estate and Ch$ for non-real estate, recorded at the time of granting the respective loan, taking into account any situations that may be causing pricing rises of the asset at that time.

| b. | Student loans

For these transactions, the provision factor should be applied to the student loan and the exposure of the contingent credit, when applicable. The determination of this factor depends on the type of student loan and the enforceability of the payment of capital or interest, at the end of each month. When payment is due, the factor will also depend on its default.

For the purposes of the classification of the loan, a distinction is made between loans granted for the financing of higher studies in accordance with Law No. 20,027 (CAE) or loans guaranteed by the State, “Credito con aval del Estado”, and, on the other hand, the loans guaranteed by CORFO, a governmental agency for the promotion of the economy.

Probability Non-Performance (PNP) according enforceability, default and type of loan (%)
Is it the principal and interest enforceable |  | Default days at |  | Student loans |
|  | month closing |  | CAE |  |  | CORFO and other |
Yes |  | 0 |  |  | 5.2 |  |  |  | 2.9 |
|  | 1-29 |  |  | 37.2 |  |  |  | 15.0 |
|  | 30-59 |  |  | 59.0 |  |  |  | 43.4 |
|  | 60-89 |  |  | 72.8 |  |  |  | 71.9 |
|  | Impaired portfolio |  |  | 100.0 |  |  |  | 100.0 |

Yes |  |  | 70.9 |
No |  |  | 50.3 |  |  |  | 45.8 |

| a. | Factoring and other commercial loans

For factoring transactions and other commercial loans, the provision factor, applicable to the amount of the loans and the exposure of the contingent credit will depend on the default of each transaction 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.

Probability of Non-Performance (PNP) by default and PTVG stage (%)
Default days at |  | Guarantee |  |  |  |
month closing |  | PTVG ≤ 100% |  |  | PTVG > 100% |  |  | No collateral |
0 |  |  | 1.86 |  |  |  | 2.68 |  |  |  | 4.91 |
1-29 |  |  | 11.60 |  |  |  | 13.45 |  |  |  | 22.93 |
30-59 |  |  | 25.33 |  |  |  | 26.92 |  |  |  | 45.30 |
60-89 |  |  | 41.31 |  |  |  | 41.31 |  |  |  | 61.63 |
Impaired portfolio |  |  | 100.00 |  |  |  | 100.00 |  |  |  | 100.00 |

Severity (SEV) by PTVG stage (%)
Guarantee |  | PTVG stage |  | Factoring and other commercial loans without responsibility |  |  | Factoring with responsibility |
Guarantee |  | PTVG ≤ 60% |  |  | 5.0 |  |  |  | 3,2 |
|  | 60% < PTVG ≤ 75% |  |  | 20.3 |  |  |  | 12,8 |
|  | 75% < PTVG ≤ 90% |  |  | 32.2 |  |  |  | 20,3 |
|  | 90% < PTVG |  |  | 43.0 |  |  |  | 27,1 |
No guarantee |  |  |  |  | 56,9 |  |  |  | 35.9 |

The collateral 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. A collateral can only be considered if, according to the respective coverage clauses, it was constituted in the first priority of preference in favor of the bank and only secures the debtor’s credits with respect to which it is imputed (not shared with other debtors). The invoices assigned in the factoring transactions and the security associated with the mortgage loans, regardless of their coverage clause, will not be considered in the calculation.

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

| i. | Transactions with specific security: when the debtor granted specific guarantees, for generic commercial loans and factoring, the PTVG ratio is calculated independently for each secured transaction, such as the division between the amount of the loans and the contingent credit exposure and the value of the collateral that protects it.

| ii. | Transactions with general security: when the debtor granted general or general and specific guarantees, the Bank calculates the respective PTVG, jointly for all generic commercial loan and factoring not contemplated in the preceding paragraph i), as the division between the sum of the amounts of the loans and exposures of contingent credits and the general, or general and specific security that, according to the scope of the remaining coverage clauses, safeguards the loans considered in the numerator of the mentioned ratio.

59

The amounts of the collateral used in the PTVG ratio of numbers i) and ii) must be determined according to:

| - | The last valuation of the security, be its appraisal or fair value, according to the type of security in question. For the determination of fair value, the criteria indicated in Chapter 7-12 of the FMC’s Updated Collection of Standards (Recopilación Actualizada de Normas or RAN), on a reasonable estimate of value of the financial instrument, should be considered.

| - | Possible situations that could be causing temporary increases in the values of the guarantees.

| - | Limitations on the amount of coverage established in their respective clauses.

III. Additional provisions

According to FMC regulation, banks are allowed to establish provisions over the limits already described, to protect themselves from the risk of non-predictable economical fluctuations that could affect the macro-economic environment or a specific economic sector.

According to No. 10 of Chapter B-1 from the FMC Compendium of Accounting Standards (Compendio de Normas Contables), these provisions will be recorded in liabilities, similar to provisions for contingent loans.

IV. Charge-offs

As a general rule, charge-offs should be done when the contract rights over cash flow expire. In the case of loans, even if the above does not happen, the Bank will charge-off these amounts in accordance with Title II of Chapter B-2 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards (FMC).

These charge-offs refer to the derecognition from the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position of the respective loan, including any not yet due future payments in the case of installment loans or leasing transactions (for which partial charge-offs do not exist).

Charge-offs are always recorded as a charge to loan risk allowances according to Chapter B-1 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards, no matter the reason for the charge-off. Any payment received related to a loan previously charged-off will be recognized as recovery of loan previously charged-off at the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

Loan and accounts receivable charge-offs are recorded for overdue, past due, and current installments when they exceed the time periods described below since reaching overdue status:

Type of loan |  | Term |
Consumer loans with or without collateral |  |  | 6 months |
Other transactions without collateral |  |  | 24 months |
Commercial loans with collateral |  |  | 36 months |
Mortgage loans |  |  | 48 months |
Consumer leasing |  |  | 6 months |
Other non-mortgage leasing transactions |  |  | 12 months |
Mortgage leasing (household and business) |  |  | 36 months |

V. Recovery of loans previously charged off and accounts receivable from customers

Any recovery on “Loans and accounts receivable from customers” previously charged-off will be recognized as a reduction in the credit risk provisions in the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

Any renegotiation of a loan previously charged-off will not give rise to income, as long as the operation continues being considered as impaired. The cash payments received must be treated as recoveries of charged-off loans.

The renegotiated loan can only be included again in assets if it is no longer considered as impaired, also recognizing the capitalization income as recovery of charged-off loans.

ITEM 4. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Introduction

The principal types of risk inherent in Santander-Chile’s business are market, liquidity, operational and credit risks. The effectiveness with which we are able to manage the balance between risk and reward is a significant factor in our ability to generate long term, stable earnings growth. Toward that end, our Board and senior management places great emphasis on risk management.

Market Risk: Qualitative Disclosure

For qualitative disclosure regarding risk management please refer to Item 11 of our 2018 20-F. These policies and procedures remain in effect throughout 2019 and as of the date of this Report.

Market Risk: Quantitative Disclosure

Impact of inflation

Our assets and liabilities are denominated in Chilean pesos, Unidades de Fomento (UF) and foreign currencies. The Bank no longer recognizes inflation accounting and has eliminated price-level restatement in line with IFRS, but inflation impacts our results of operations as some loan and deposit products are contracted in UF. The UF is revalued in monthly cycles. Each day in the period beginning on the tenth day of the current month through the ninth day of the succeeding month, the nominal peso value of the UF is indexed up (or down in the event of deflation) in order to reflect a proportionate amount of the change in the Chilean Consumer Price Index during the prior calendar month. One UF equaled Ch$28,048.53 at September 30, 2019, Ch$27,565.79 at December 30, 2018 and Ch$27,357.45 at September 30, 2018. High levels of inflation in Chile could adversely affect the Chilean economy and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Negative inflation rates also negatively impact our results. Inflation measured as the variation of the UF for the first nine months of the year was 1.8% in the first nine months of 2019 and 2.1% in the first nine months of 2018. There can be no assurance that Chilean inflation will not change significantly from the current level. Although we currently benefit from moderate levels of inflation, due to the current structure of our assets and liabilities (i.e., a significant portion of our loans are indexed to the inflation rate, but there are no corresponding features in deposits or other funding sources that would increase the size of our funding base), there can be no assurance that our business, financial condition and result of operations in the future will not be adversely affected by changing levels of inflation. In summary:

| ● | UF-denominated assets and liabilities. The effect of any changes in the nominal peso value of our UF-denominated interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities is reflected in our results of operations as an increase (or decrease, in the event of deflation) in interest income and expense, respectively. Our net interest income will be positively affected by an inflationary environment to the extent that our average UF-denominated interest earning assets exceed our average UF-denominated interest bearing liabilities. Our net interest income will be positively affected by deflation in any period in which our average UF-denominated interest bearing liabilities exceed our average UF-denominated interest earning assets. Our net interest income will be negatively affected in a deflationary environment if our average UF-denominated interest earning assets exceed our average UF-denominated interest bearing liabilities.

| ● | Inflation and interest rate hedge. A key component of our asset and liability policy is the management of interest rate risk. The Bank’s assets generally have a longer maturity than our liabilities. As the Bank’s mortgage portfolio grows, the maturity gap tends to rise as these loans, which are contracted in UF, have a longer maturity than the average maturity of our funding base. As most of our long term financial instruments and mortgage loans are contracted in UF and most of our deposits are in nominal pesos, the rise in mortgage lending increases the Bank’s exposure to inflation and to interest rate risk. The size of this gap is limited by internal and regulatory guidelines in order to avoid excessive potential losses due to strong shifts in interest rates. In order to keep this duration gap below regulatory limits, the Bank issues long term bonds denominated in UF or interest rate swaps. The financial cost of the bonds and the efficient part of these hedges is recorded as net interest income. The average gap between our interest earnings assets and total liabilities linked to the inflation, including hedging, was Ch$4,039,499 million as of September 30, 2019 and Ch$4,294,039 million as of September 30, 2018.

64

| ● | The financial impact of the gap between our interest earning assets and liabilities denominated in UFs including hedges was in the results of the Bank Ch$69,559 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and Ch$88,828 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in the results from our UF gap was due to the lower UF inflation rate in the first nine months of 2019 compared to the first nine months of 2018.

Impact of inflation on net interest income |  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2019/2018 |

(1) | UF GAP is net interest income from asset and liabilities denominated in UFs and include the results from hedging the size of this gap via interest rate swaps.

| ● | Peso-denominated assets and liabilities. Interest rates prevailing in Chile during any period primarily reflect the inflation rate during the period and the expectations of future inflation. The sensitivity of our peso-denominated interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to changes to such prevailing rates varies. See “—Impact of Interest Rates.” We maintain a substantial amount of non-interest bearing peso-denominated demand deposits. Because such deposits are not sensitive to inflation, any decline in the rate of inflation would adversely affect our net interest margin on inflation indexed assets funded with such deposits, and any increase in the rate of inflation would increase the net interest margin on such assets. The ratio of the average of such demand deposits and average shareholder’s equity to average interest-earning assets was 31.1% and 30.6% as of September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Impact of Interest Rates

Interest rates earned and paid on our assets and liabilities reflect, to a certain degree, inflation, expectations regarding inflation, changes in short term interest rates set by the Central Bank and movements in long term real rates. The Central Bank manages short term interest rates based on its objectives of balancing low inflation and economic growth. Because our liabilities are generally re-priced sooner than our assets, changes in the rate of inflation or short term rates in the economy are reflected in the rates of interest paid by us on our liabilities before such changes are reflected in the rates of interest earned by us on our assets. Therefore, when short term interest rates fall, our net interest margin is positively impacted, but when short term rates increase, our interest margin is negatively affected. At the same time, our net interest margin tends to be adversely affected in the short term by a decrease in inflation rates since generally our UF-denominated assets exceed our UF-denominated liabilities. See “—Impact of Inflation.” An increase in long term rates has a positive effect on our net interest margin, because our interest earning assets generally have longer terms than our interest bearing liabilities. In addition, because our peso-denominated liabilities have relatively short re-pricing periods, they are generally more responsive to changes in inflation or short term rates than our UF-denominated liabilities. As a result, during periods when or expected inflation exceeds the previous period’s inflation, customers often switch funds from UF-denominated deposits to peso-denominated deposits, which generally bear higher interest rates, thereby adversely affecting our net interest margin.

Impact of foreign exchange fluctuations

The Chilean government’s economic policies and any future changes in the value of the Chilean peso against the U.S. dollar could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. The Chilean peso has been subject to significant devaluation in the past and may be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. The Central Bank exchange rate depreciated 4.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 7.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The peso has depreciated 19.1% since October 18, 2019, when the more serious social unrest started, to a record high level of CH$828.25 per U.S. dollar on November 29, 2019, prompting the Central Bank to inject liquidity in the economy in U.S. dollars and to begin to actively intervene the exchange market. See “Item 1. Key Information —C. Recent Developments – Political and Economic Conditions in Chile.”

A significant portion of our assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign currencies, principally the U.S. dollar, and we historically have maintained, and may continue to maintain, material gaps between the balances of such assets and liabilities. Because such assets and liabilities, as well as interest earned or paid on such assets and liabilities, and gains and losses realized upon the sale of such assets, are translated to Chilean pesos in preparing our financial statements, our reported income is affected by changes in the value of the Chilean peso relative to foreign currencies (principally the U.S. dollar).

67

In general, the Bank is not permitted, due to guidelines set by the ALCO and the Market Committee, to open a meaningful gap in foreign currency. Therefore, all foreign currency risk is included in the trading portfolio and is measured using VaR. The average VAR of our foreign currency position was U.S.$1.25 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2019.

Foreign currency |  | Nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 |  |  | Year ended December 31, 2018 |

Market risk –Regulatory method

The following table illustrates our market risk exposure according to the Chilean regulatory method, as of September 30, 2019 as defined by the Central Bank of Chile and approved by our Board of Directors. This model is a sensitivity model that estimates market risk with 75-125bp movements in interest rates over the trading portfolio and 200bp movements in rates over the non-trading portfolio. This information is sent to the FMC on a quarterly basis.

Liquidity Management

The Financial Management Division receives information from all the business units on the liquidity profile of their financial assets and liabilities, as well as breakdowns of other projected cash flows stemming from future businesses. On the basis of that information, the Financial Management Division maintains a portfolio of liquid short–term assets, comprised mainly of liquid investments, loans and advances to other banks, to make sure the Bank has sufficient liquidity. The business units’ liquidity needs are met through short–term transfers from the Financial Management Division to cover any short–term fluctuations and long–term financing to address all the structural liquidity requirements.

The Bank monitors its liquidity position every day, determining the future flows of its outlays and revenues. In addition, stress tests are performed at the close of each month, for which a variety of scenarios encompassing both normal market conditions and conditions of market fluctuation are used. The liquidity policy and procedures are subject to review and approval by the Bank’s Board. Periodic reports are generated by the Market Risk Department, providing a breakdown of the liquidity position of the Bank and its subsidiaries, including any exceptions and the corrective measures adopted, which are regularly submitted to the ALCO for review.

The Bank relies on demand deposits from Retail, Middle-Market and Corporates, obligations to banks, debt instruments, and time deposits as its main sources of funding. Although most obligations to banks, debt instruments and time deposits mature in over a year, customer (retail) and institutional deposits tend to have shorter maturities and a large proportion of them are payable within 90 days. The short–term nature of these deposits increases the Bank’s liquidity risk, and hence, the Bank actively manages this risk by continual supervision of the market trends and price management.

69

Liquidity risk management seeks to ensure that, even under adverse conditions, we have access to the funds necessary to cover client needs, maturing liabilities and capital requirements. Liquidity risk arises in the general funding for our financing, trading and investment activities. It includes the risk of unexpected increases in the cost of funding the portfolio of assets at appropriate maturities and rates, the risk of being unable to liquidate a position in a timely manner at a reasonable price and the risk that we will be required to repay liabilities earlier than anticipated.

The following table sets forth the balance of our liquidity portfolio managed by our Financial Management Division in the manner in which it is presented to the Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) and the Board. The ALCO has determined that our liquidity portfolio must be comprised of cash plus assets that can be readily convertible into cash either through the Chilean Central Bank window, overnight deposits or instruments or the local secondary market. The management of the Bank’s liquidity portfolio is performed by the Financial Management Division under rules determined by the ALCO.

Our general policy is to maintain liquidity adequate to ensure our ability to honor withdrawals of deposits, make repayments of other liabilities at maturity, extend loans and meet our own working capital needs. Our minimum amount of liquidity is determined by the statutory reserve requirements of the Central Bank. Deposits are subject to a statutory reserve requirement of 9.0% for demand deposits and 3.6% for Chilean peso-, UF- and foreign currency denominated time deposits with a term of less than a year. The Central Bank has statutory authority to increase these percentages to up to 40.0% for demand deposits and up to 20.0% for time deposits. In addition, a 100.0% special reserve (reserva técnica) applies to demand deposits, deposits in checking accounts, other demand deposits received or obligations payable on sight and incurred in the ordinary course of business, other than deposits unconditionally payable immediately. This special reserve requirement applies to the amount by which the total of such deposits exceeds 2.5 times the amount of a bank’s regulatory capital. Interbank loans are deemed to have a maturity of more than 30 days, even if payable within the following 10 days.

70

The Central Bank also requires us to comply with the following liquidity limits:

| ● | The sum of the liabilities with a maturity of less than 30 days may not exceed the sum of the assets with a maturity of less than 30 days by an amount greater than our Shareholders’ equity. This limit must be calculated in local currency and foreign currencies together as one gap. At September 30, 2019, the percentage of (i) our liabilities with a maturity of less than 30 days in excess of our assets with a maturity of less than 30 days to (ii) our capital and reserves was 49%, thus resulting in our compliance.

| ● | The sum of the liabilities in foreign currency with a maturity of less than 30 days may not exceed the sum of the assets in foreign currency with a maturity of less than 30 days by more than an amount greater than our Shareholders’ equity. At September 30, 2019, the percentage of (i) our liabilities with a maturity of less than 30 days in foreign currency in excess of our assets in foreign currency with a maturity of less than 30 days to (ii) our capital and reserves was 7%, thus resulting in our compliance.

| ● | The sum of the liabilities with a maturity of less than 90 days may not exceed the sum of the assets with a maturity of less than 90 days by more than 2 times our Shareholders’ equity. This limit must be calculated in local currency and foreign currencies together as one gap. At September 30, 2019, the percentage of (i) our liabilities with a maturity of less than 90 days in excess of our assets with a maturity of less than 90 days to (ii) our capital and reserves was 74%, thus resulting in our compliance.

New liquidity requirements in line with BIS III

The FMC and the Chilean Central Bank published new liquidity corporate governance standards and ratios that must be implemented and calculated by all banks. These will eventually replace the current regulatory limits imposed by the FMC and the Central Bank described above. These new liquidity standards are in line with those established in BIS III. The most important liquidity ratios that will eventually be adopted by Chilean banks are:

| ● | Liquid assets. The Bank’s must inform the liquid assets according to BIS III liquid levels. As of September 30, 2019, the breakdown of the Bank’s liquid assets by levels was the following:

|  | September 30, 2019 |
|  | Ch$ million |
Balance as of: |  |  |
Cash and cash equivalent |  |  | 1,305,539 |
Level 1 liquid assets (1) |  |  | 2,287,528 |
Level 2 liquid assets (2) |  |  | 15,864 |
Total liquid assets |  |  | 3,608,931 |

(1) | Includes instruments issued by the Central Bank of Chile or other central banks with a AAA rating, instruments issued by the Chilean government or other sovereign with a AAA rating and instruments issued by development banks with a AAA rating.

(2) | Includes instruments issued by governments, central banks and development banks of foreign countries with a risk rating of A- to AA+ and mortgage bonds issued by Chilean banks that are acceptable at the Chilean Central Bank’s repo window.

| ● | Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), which measures the percentage of Liquid Assets over Net Cash Outflows. As of September 30, 2019, this was 135.9%.

| ● | Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) which will measure a bank’s stable funding sources over required stables needs both concepts also defined in the new regulations. As of September 30, 2019, this was 97.91%.

The Central Bank and the FMC are still adjusting the methodology for calculating these ratios and the initial limits banks must meet in order to comply with these new ratios have not been published yet. For this reason, and even though the Bank has advanced liquidity management models, we cannot assure that the implementation of these models will not have a material effect on our business and that the figures presented above may change.

71

Derivative activities

At September 30, 2019, derivatives are valued at market price on the balance sheet and the net unrealized gain (loss) on derivatives is classified as a separate line item on the income statement. Notional amounts are not recorded on the balance sheet. Banks must mark to market derivatives. A derivative financial instrument held for trading purposes must be marked to market and the unrealized gain or loss recognized in the income statement. The FMC recognizes three kinds of hedge accounting: (i) cash flow hedges, (ii) fair value hedges and (iii) hedging of foreign investments.

| ● | When a cash flow hedge exists, the fair value movements on the part of the hedging instrument that is effective are recognized in equity. Any ineffective portion of the fair value movement on the hedging instrument is recognized in the income statement.

| ● | When a fair value hedge exists, the fair value movements on the hedging instrument and the corresponding fair value movements on the hedged item are recognized in the income statement. Hedged items in the balance sheet are presented at their market value.

| ● | When a hedge of foreign investment exposure exists (i.e. investment in a foreign branch), the fair value movements on the part of the hedging instrument that is effective are recognized in equity. Any ineffective portion of the fair value movement on the hedging instrument is recognized in the income statement.

We classify some of our derivative financial instruments as being held for trading, due to the guidelines from the FMC. We enter into derivative contracts with some clients who seek hedging instruments. However, substantially all of our derivatives are not actually used for speculative purposes. We also use derivatives to hedge our exposure to foreign exchange, interest rate and inflation risks. We had the following derivative financial instruments portfolio as of September 30, 2019:

|  | As of September 30, 2019 |
|  | Notional amount |  |  | Fair value |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CORPORATE INFORMATION

Banco Santander-Chile is a banking corporation (limited company) operating under the laws of the Republic of Chile, headquartered at Bandera N°140, Santiago. The corporation provides a broad range of general banking services to its customers, ranging from individuals to major corporations. Banco Santander-Chile and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Bank” or “Banco Santander-Chile”) offers commercial and consumer banking services, including (but not limited to) factoring, collection, leasing, securities and insurance brokering, mutual and investment fund management, and investment banking.

Banco Santander Spain controls Banco Santander-Chile through its holdings in Teatinos Siglo XXI Inversiones Ltda. and Santander Chile Holding S.A., which are controlled subsidiaries of Banco Santander Spain. As of September 30, 2019, Banco Santander Spain owns or controls directly and indirectly 99.5% of Santander Chile Holding S.A. and 100% of Teatinos Siglo XXI Inversiones Ltda. This makes Banco Santander Spain have control over 67.18% of the Bank’s shares.

a) | Basis of preparation

These Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Compendium of Accounting Standards issued by the Financial Market Comission (CMF) (exSuperintendency of Banks and Financial Institutions “SBIF”), the Chilean regulatory agency. Article 15 of the General Banking Law states that banks must apply accounting standards established by the CMF. For the topics not covered by the CMF, the Bank must apply generally accepted standards issued by the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G (Association of Chilean Accountants), coincident with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). In the event that any discrepancies exist between IFRS and accounting standards issued by the CMF (Compendium of Accounting Standards and Instructions), the latter shall prevail.

For purposes of these consolidated interim financial statements the Bank uses certain terms and conventions. References to “US$”, “U.S. dollars” and “dollars” are to United States dollars, references to “EUR” are to European Economic Community Euro, references to “CNY” are to Chinese Yuan, references to “JPY” are to Japanese yen, references to “CHF” are to Swiss franc, references to “AUD” references are to Australian dollar, references “Ch$” are to Chilean pesos, and references to “UF” are to Unidades de Fomento. The UF is an inflation-indexed Chilean monetary unit with a value in Chilean pesos that changes daily to reflect changes in the official Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) of the Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas (the Chilean National Institute of Statistics) for the previous month.

The Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements contain additional information to support the figures submitted in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Interim Statement of Income, Consolidated Interim Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Interim Statement of Changes in Equity and Consolidated Interim Statement of Cash Flows for the period. These contain narrative descriptions and details of these statements in a clear, relevant, reliable and comparable manner.

b) | Basis of preparation for the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

The Consolidated Interim Financial Statements as of September 30, 2019 and 2018 and December 31, 2018, include the financial statements of the entities over which the Bank has control (including structured entities); and includes the adjustments, reclassifications and eliminations needed to comply with the accounting and valuation criteria established by IFRS. Control is achieved when the Bank:

| I. | has power over the investee (i.e., it has rights that grant the current capacity of managing the relevant activities of the investee);
| II. | is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
| III. | has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The Bank reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

When the Bank has less than the majority of the voting rights of an investee, but it will be considered to have the power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities over the investee unilaterally. The Bank considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Bank’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, these include:

| ● | the size of the Bank’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders.
| ● | the potential voting rights held by the Bank, other vote holders or other parties.
| ● | the rights arising from other contractual agreements.
| ● | any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Bank has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Bank obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Bank loses control over the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed during the year are included in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income from the date the Bank gains control until the date when the Bank ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Bank and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Bank and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit in certain circumstances.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of the subsidiaries to ensure their accounting policies are consistent with the Bank’s accounting policies. All balances and transactions between consolidated entities are eliminated.

Changes in the consolidated entities ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying values of the Bank’s equity and the non-controlling interests’ equity are adjusted to reflect the changes to their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Bank.

In addition, third parties’ shares in the Bank’s consolidated equity are presented as “Non-controlling interests” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Changes in Equity. Their share in the income for the year is presented as “Attributable to non-controlling interest” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

The following companies are considered entities controlled by the Bank and are therefore within the scope of consolidation:

The details of non-controlling interest in all the subsidiaries can be seen in Note 23 – Non-controlling interest.

(*) On July 25, 2018, the company has ceased conducting foreign currency purcharse and sale operations, hence forth this operation will be carried out directly by the Bank.

ii. | Entities controlled by the Bank through other considerations

The following companies have been consolidated as of September 30, 2019 and 2018 and December 31, 2018 based on the fact that the relevant activities of them are determined by the Bank (companies complementary to the banking sector) and therefore the Bank exercises control:

| - | Santander Gestión de Recaudación y Cobranza Limitada (collection services).

| - | Bansa Santander S.A. (management of repossessed assets and leasing of properties).

iii. | Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Bank has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control or joint control. This ability is usually represented by a share equal to or higher than 20% of the voting rights of the Company and is accounted for using the equity method.

In the case of Cámara Compensación Alto Valor S.A., Banco Santander-Chile has a representative in the Board of Directors, which is why Management has concluded that it exercises significant influence over the same.

In the case of Servicios de Infraestructura de Mercado OTC S.A., the Bank participates, through its executives, actively in the administration, which is why Management has concluded that it exercises significant influence over it.

iv. | Share or rights in other companies

Entities over which the Bank has no control or significant influence are presented in this category. These holdings are shown at acquisition value (historical cost) less impairment, if any.

c) | Non-controlling interest

Non-controlling interest represents the portion of gains or losses and net assets which the Bank does not own, either directly or indirectly. It is presented separately in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income, and separately from shareholders’ equity in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position.

In the case of entities controlled by the Bank through other considerations, income and equity are presented in full as non-controlling interest, since the Bank controls them, but does not have any ownership.

d) | Reporting segments

The Bank's operating segments correspond to the units whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the highest decision-making authority. Two or more operating segments can be added into one, only when the aggregation is consistent with the basic principle of International Financial Reporting Standard 8 “Operating Segments” (IFRS 8) and the segments have similar economic characteristics and are similar in each one of the following aspects:

| i. | the nature of the products and services;

| ii. | the nature of the production processes;

| iii. | the type or category of customers to whom your products and services are destined;

| iv. | the methods used to distribute your products or provide services; and

| v. | if applicable, the nature of the regulatory framework, for example, banking, insurance, or public services.

The Bank reports separately on each operating segment that exceeds any of the following quantitative thresholds:

| i. | Its reported revenue, from both external customers and intersegment sales or transfers, is 10% or more of the combined internal and external revenue of all the operating segments.

| ii. | the absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is equal to or greater than 10%: (i) the combined reported profit of all the operating segments that did not report a loss; (ii) the combined reported loss of all the operating segments that reported a loss.

| iii. | its assets represent 10% or more of the combined assets of all the operating segments.

Operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative threshold may be treated as segments to be reported, in which case the information must be disclosed separately if management believes it could be useful for the users of the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Information about other business activities of the segments not separately reported is combined and disclosed in the “Other segments” category.

According to the information presented, the Bank’s segments were selected based on an operating segment being a component of an entity that:

| i. | Engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses from transactions with other components of the same entity);

| ii. | whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief executive officer, who makes decisions about resources allocated to the segment and assess its performance;

| iii. | for which discrete financial information is available.

e) | Functional and presentation currency

The Bank, in accordance with IAS 21 "Effects of Variations in Exchange Rates of the Foreign Currency", has defined as functional and presentation currency the Chilean Peso, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Bank operates, it also obeys the currency that influences the structure of costs and revenues.

Therefore, all balances and transactions denominated in currencies other than the Chilean Peso are considered as "Foreign currency".

f) | Foreign currency transactions

The Bank performs transactions in foreign currencies, mainly in U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and held by the Bank are translated to Chilean pesos based on the representative market rate published by Reuters at 1:30 p.m. on the month end date. The rate used was Ch$728.60 per US$1 for September, 2019 (Ch$656.74 per US$1 for September 2018, and Ch$697.76 per US$1 for December, 2018).

The amount of net foreign exchange gains and losses include recognition of the effects that exchange rate variations have on assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and the profits and losses on foreign exchange spot and forward transactions undertaken by the Bank.

g) | Definitions and classification of financial instruments

i. | Definitions

A “financial instrument” is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of an entity, and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

An “equity instrument” is a legal transaction that evidences a residual interest on the assets of an entity deducting all of its liabilities.

A “financial derivative” is a financial instrument whose value changes in response to changes with regard to an observed market variable (such as an interest rate, a foreign exchange rate, a financial instrument’s price, or a market index, including credit ratings), whose initial investment is very small compared with other financial instruments having a similar response to changes in market factors, and which is generally settled at a future date.

“Hybrid financial instruments” are contracts that simultaneously include a non-derivative host contract together with a financial derivative, known as an embedded derivative, which is not separately transferable and has the effect that some of the cash flows of the hybrid contract vary in a way similar to a stand-alone derivative. As of September 30, 2019 and 2018 and December 31, 2018, Banco Santander-Chile did not keep implicit derivatives in its portfolio.

ii. | Classification of financial assets for measurement purposes

Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets trading investments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), ‘held to maturity investments’, ‘available for sale investments’ (AFS) financial assets and ‘loans and accounts receivable from customers'. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

A conventional purchase or sale of financial assets is the purchase or sale of a financial asset that requires the delivery of the asset during a period that is generally regulated or arises from a convention established in the market. A conventional purchase or sale of financial assets will be recognized and written off, as appropriate, by applying the accounting of the date of contracting or that of the settlement date.

Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets that aren’t accounted for at fair value with changes in profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for loans and accounts receivables other than those financial assets classified at fair value through profit or loss.

Trading investments

Financial assets are classified as FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as fair value through profit or loss.

A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

| - | It has been acquired with the purpose of selling it in the short term; or

| - | on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Bank manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

| - | it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

| - | Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

| - | the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Bank's documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or

| - | it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and IAS 39 permits the entire combined contract to be designated as FVTPL.

Financial assets FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘net income (expense) from financial operations' line item.

Held to maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates that the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment.

Available for sale investments

AFS investments are non-derivatives that are either designated as AFS or are not classified as (a) loans and accounts receivable from customers, (b) held-to-maturity investments or (c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (trading investments).

Financial instruments held by the Bank that are traded in an active market are classified as AFS and are stated at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Bank also has investments in financial instruments that are not traded in an active market but that are also classified as AFS investments and stated at fair value at the end of each reporting period (because the directors consider that fair value can be reliably measured). Changes in the carrying amount of AFS monetary financial assets relating to changes in foreign currency rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method and dividends on AFS equity investments are recognised in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of available for sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of “Valuation Adjustment”. When the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the investments revaluation reserve is reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividends on AFS equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Bank's right to receive the dividends is established.

The fair value of AFS monetary financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated as the described in f) above. The foreign exchange gains and losses that are recognised in profit or loss are determined based on the amortised cost of the monetary asset.

Loans and accounts receivables from customers

Loans and accounts receivable from customers are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and accounts receivables from customers (including loans and accounts receivable from customers and interbank loans) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables where discounting effects are immaterial.

iii. | Classification of financial assets for presentation purposes

For presentation purposes, the financial assets are classified by their nature into the following line items in the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements:

● | Cash and deposits in banks: this line includes cash balances, checking accounts and on-demand deposits with the Central Bank of Chile and other domestic and foreign financial institutions. Amounts invested as overnight deposits are included in this item and in the corresponding items. If a special item for these operations is not mentioned, they will be included along with the accounts being reported.

● | Cash items in process of collection: this item includes values of documents in process of transfer and balances from operations that, as agreed, are not settled the same day, and purchase of currencies not yet received.

● | Trading investments: this item includes financial instruments held-for-trading and investments in mutual funds which must be adjusted to their fair value.

● | Investments under resale agreements: This item presents the balances corresponding to the transactions for the purchase of instruments with an agreement and the securities loans. In accordance with current regulations, the Bank does not register as its own portfolio those papers purchased with retro-purchase agreements.

● | Financial derivative contracts: financial derivative contracts with positive fair values are presented in this item. It includes both independent contracts as well as derivatives that should and can be separated from a host contract, whether they are for trading or accounted for as derivatives held for hedging, as shown in Note 7.

| ● | Trading derivatives: includes the fair value of derivatives which do not qualify for hedge accounting, including embedded derivatives separated from hybrid financial instruments.

| ● | Hedging derivatives: includes the fair value of derivatives designated as being in a hedging relationship, including the embedded derivatives separated from the hybrid financial instruments.

● | Interbank loans: this item includes the balances of transactions with domestic and foreign banks, including the Central Bank of Chile, other than those reflected in certain other financial asset classifications listed above.

● | Loans and accounts receivables from customers: these loans are non-derivative financial assets for which fixed or determined amounts are charged, that are not listed on an active market and which the Bank does not intend to sell immediately or in the short term. When the Bank is the lessor in a lease, and it substantially transfers the risks and rewards incidental to the leased asset, the transaction is presented in loans and accounts receivable from customers while the leased asset is removed from the Bank´s financial statements.

● | Investment instruments: are classified into two categories: held-to-maturity investments, and available-for-sale investments. The held-to-maturity investment classification includes only those instruments for which the Bank has the ability and intent to hold to maturity. The remaining investments are treated as available for sale.

iv. | Classification of financial liabilities for measurement purposes

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities FVTPL or other financial liabilities.

Financial liabilities FVTPL

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the bank does not possess any financial liabilities FVTPL.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities (including loans and accounts payable) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

v. | Classification of financial liabilities for presentation purposes

Financial liabilities are classified by their nature into the following items in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position:

● | Deposits and other on-demand liabilities: this includes all on-demand obligations except for term savings accounts, which are not considered on-demand instruments in view of their special characteristics. Obligations whose payment may be required during the period are deemed to be on-demand obligations. Operations which become callable the day after the closing date are not treated as on-demand obligations.

● | Cash items in process of collection: this item includes balances from asset purchase operations that are not settled the same day, and sale of currencies not yet delivered.

● | Obligations under repurchase agreements: this includes the balances of sales of financial instruments under securities repurchase and loan agreements. The Bank does not record as own portfolio instruments acquired under repurchase agreements.

● | Time deposits and other time liabilities: this shows the balances of deposit transactions in which a term at the end of which they become callable has been stipulated.

● | Financial derivative contracts: this includes financial derivative contracts with negative fair values (i.e. a liability of the Bank), whether they are for trading or for hedge accounting, as set forth in Note 7.

| ● | Trading derivatives: includes the fair value of derivatives which do not qualify for hedge accounting, including embedded derivatives separated from hybrid financial instruments.

| ● | Hedging derivatives: includes the fair value of derivatives designated as being in a hedging relationship, including the embedded derivatives separated from the hybrid financial instruments.

● | Obligations with banks: Includes obligations with other banks in the country, with foreign banks or with the Central Bank of Chile and which were not classified in any previous definition.

● | Issued debt instruments: there are three types of instruments issued by the Bank: obligations under letters of credit, subordinated bonds and senior bonds placed in the local and foreign market.

● | Other financial liabilities: this item includes credit obligations to persons other than domestic banks, foreign banks, or the Central Bank of Chile, for financing purposes or operations in the normal course of business.

h) | Valuation of financial instruments and recognition of fair value changes

Generally, financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, which, in the absence of evidence against it, is deemed to be the transaction price. Financial instruments, other than those measured at fair value through profit or loss, are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, and at the end of each reporting period, financial instruments are measured with the following criteria:

i. | Valuation of financial instruments

Financial assets are measured according to their fair value, gross of any transaction costs that may be incurred in the course of a sale, except for credit investments and held to maturity investments.

According to IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, “fair value” is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e. an exit price) regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. When measuring fair value an entity shall take into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND FOR THE NINE-MONTS PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

The fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: (a) in the principal market for the asset or liability, or (b) in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Even when there is no observable market to provide pricing information in connection with the sale of an asset or the transfer of a liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement shall assume that the transaction takes place, considered from the perspective of a potential market participant who intends to maximize value associated with the asset or liability.

When using valuation techniques, the Bank shall maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs as available. If an asset or a liability measured at fair value has a bid price and an ask price, the price within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances shall be used to measure fair value regardless of where the input is categorized within the fair value hierarchy (i.e. Level 1, 2 or 3). IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

Every derivative is recorded in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position at fair value as previously described. This value is compared to the valuation at the trade date. If the fair value is subsequently measured positive, this is recorded as an asset, if the fair value is subsequently measured negative, this is recorded as a liability. The fair value on the trade date is deemed, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, to be the transaction price. The changes in the fair value of derivatives from the trade date are recorded in “Net income (expense) from financial operations” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

Specifically, the fair value of financial derivatives included in the portfolios of financial assets or liabilities held for trading is deemed to be their daily quoted price. If, for exceptional reasons, the quoted price cannot be determined on a given date, the fair value is determined using similar methods to those used to measure over the counter (OTC) derivatives. The fair value of OTC derivatives is the sum of the future cash flows resulting from the instrument, discounted to present value at the date of valuation (“present value” or “theoretical close”) using valuation techniques commonly used by the financial markets: “net present value” (NPV) and option pricing models, among other methods. Also, within the fair value of derivatives are included Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) and Debit Valuation Adjustment (DVA), all with the objective that the fair value of each instrument includes the credit risk of its counterparty and Bank´s own risk. Counterparty Credit Risk (CVA) is a valuation adjustment to derivatives contracted in non-organized markets as a result of exposure to counterparty credit risk. The CVA is calculated considering the potential exposure to each counterparty in future periods. Own-credit risk (DVA) is a valuation adjustment similar to the CVA, but generated by the Bank's credit risk assumed by our counterparties.

“Loans and accounts receivable from customers” and Held-to-maturity instrument portfolio are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is the acquisition cost of a financial asset or liability, plus or minus, as appropriate, prepayments of principal and the cumulative amortization (recorded in the consolidated income statement) of the difference between the initial cost and the maturity amount as calculated under the effective interest method. For financial assets, amortized cost also includes any reductions for impairment or uncollectibility. For loans and accounts receivable designated as hedged items in fair value hedges, the changes in their fair value related to the risk or risks being hedged are recorded in “Net income (expense) from financial operations”.

The “effective interest rate” is the discount rate that exactly matches the initial amount of a financial instrument to all its estimated cash flows over its remaining life. For fixed-rate financial instruments, the effective interest rate incorporates the contractual interest rate established on the acquisition date. Where applicable, the fees and transaction costs that are a part of the financial return are included. For floating-rate financial instruments, the effective interest rate matches the current rate of return until the date of the next review of interest rates.

The amounts at which the financial assets are recorded represent the Bank’s maximum exposure to credit risk as at the reporting date. The Bank has also received collateral and other credit enhancements to mitigate its exposure to credit risk, which consist mainly of mortgage guarantees, equity instruments and personal securities, assets under leasing agreements, assets acquired under repurchase agreements, securities loans and derivatives.

Capital instruments whose fair value cannot be determined sufficiently objectively and financial derivatives that have these instruments as underlying assets and are settled by delivery thereof are maintained at their acquisition cost, corrected, where appropriate, by losses for deterioration they have experienced.

| ii. | Valuation techniques

Financial instruments at fair value, determined on the basis of price quotations in active markets, include government debt securities, private sector debt securities, equity shares, short positions, and fixed-income securities issued.

In cases where price quotations cannot be observed in available markets, the Bank’s management determines a best estimate of the price that the market would set using its own internal models. In most cases, these models use data based on observable market parameters as significant inputs however for some valuations of financial instruments, significant inputs are unobservable in the market. To determine a value for those instruments, various techniques are employed to make these estimates, including the extrapolation of observable market data.

The most reliable evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is usually the transaction price, however due to lack of availability of market information, the value of the instrument may be derived from other market transactions performed with the same or similar instruments or may be measured by using a valuation technique in which the variables used include only observable market data, mainly interest rates.

The main techniques used as of September 30, 2019 and 2018 and as of December 31, 2018 by the Bank’s internal models to determine the fair value of the financial instruments are as follows:

| i. | In the valuation of financial instruments permitting static hedging (mainly forwards and swaps), the present value method is used. Estimated future cash flows are discounted using the interest rate curves of the related currencies. The interest rate curves are generally observable market data.

| ii. | In the valuation of financial instruments requiring dynamic hedging (mainly structured options and other structured instruments), the Black-Scholes model is normally used. Where appropriate, observable market inputs are used to obtain factors such as the bid-offer spread, exchange rates, volatility, correlation indexes and market liquidity.

| iii. | In the valuation of certain financial instruments exposed to interest rate risk, such as interest rate futures, caps and floors, the present value method (futures) and the Black-Scholes model (plain vanilla options) are used. The main inputs used in these models are observable market data, including the related interest rate curves, volatilities, correlations and exchange rates.

The fair value of the financial instruments calculated by the aforementioned internal models considers contractual terms and observable market data, which include interest rates, credit risk, exchange rates, quoted market price of shares and market rates of raw materials, volatility, prepayments and liquidity. The Bank’s management considers that its valuation models are not significantly subjective, since these methodologies can be adjusted and evaluated, as appropriate, through the internal calculation of fair value and the subsequent comparison with the related actively traded price.

iii. | Hedging transactions

The Bank uses financial derivatives for the following purposes:

| i. | To sell to customers who request these instruments in the management of their market and credit risks;

| ii. | to use these derivatives in the management of the risks of the Bank entities’ own positions and assets and liabilities (“hedging derivatives”), and

| iii. | to obtain profits from changes in the price of these derivatives (trading derivatives).

All financial derivatives that are not held for hedging purposes are accounted for as trading derivatives.

A derivative qualifies for hedge accounting if all the following conditions are met:

1. | The derivative hedges one of the following three types of exposure:

| a. | Changes in the value of assets and liabilities due to fluctuations, among others, in inflation (UF), the interest rate and/or exchange rate to which the position or balance to be hedged is subject (“fair value hedge”);

| b. | Changes in the estimated cash flows arising from financial assets and liabilities, commitments and highly probable forecasted transactions (“cash flow hedge”);

| c. | The net investment in a foreign operation (“hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation”).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

2. | It is effective in offsetting exposure inherent in the hedged item or position throughout the expected term of the hedge, which means that:

| a. | At the date of arrangement the hedge is expected, under normal conditions, to be highly effective (“prospective effectiveness”).

| b. | There is sufficient evidence that the hedge was actually effective during the life of the hedged item or position (“retrospective effectiveness”).

3. | There must be adequate documentation evidencing the specific designation of the financial derivative to hedge certain balances or transactions and how this effective hedge was expected to be achieved and measured, provided that this is consistent with the Bank’s management of own risks.

The changes in the value of financial instruments qualifying for hedge accounting are recorded as follows:

| a. | For fair value hedges, the gains or losses arising on both hedging instruments and the hedged items (attributable to the type of risk being hedged) are included as “Net income (expense) from financial operations” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

| b. | For fair value hedges of interest rate risk on a portfolio of financial instruments, gains or losses that arise in measuring hedging instruments and other gains or losses due to changes in fair value of the underlying hedged item (attributable to the hedged risk) are recorded in the Consolidated Interim Financial Statement of Income under “Net income (expense) from financial operations”.

| c. | For cash flow hedges, the change in fair value of the hedging instrument is included as “Cash flow hedge” in “Other comprehensive income”.

| d. | The differences in valuation of the hedging instrument corresponding to the ineffective portion of the cash flow hedging transactions are recorded directly in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income under “Net income (expense) from financial operations”.

If a derivative designated as a hedging instrument no longer meets the requirements described above due to expiration, ineffectiveness or for any other reason, hedge accounting treatment is discontinued. When “fair value hedging” is discontinued, the fair value adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged item arising from the hedged risk are amortized to gain or loss from that date, when applicable.

When cash flow hedges are discontinued any cumulative gain or loss of the hedging instrument recognized under “Other comprehensive income” (from the period when the hedge was effective) remains recorded in equity until the hedged transaction occurs, at which time it is recorded in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income, unless the transaction is no longer expected to occur, in which case any cumulative gain or loss is recorded immediately in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

iv. | Embedded Derivatives in hybrid financial instruments

Embedded Derivatives in other financial instruments or in other host contracts are accounted for separately as derivatives if 1) their risks and characteristics are not closely related to the host contracts, 2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative, and 3) provided that the host contracts are not classified as “Trading investments” or as other financial assets (liabilities) at fair value through profit or loss.

v. | Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial asset and liability balances are offset, i.e., reported in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position at their net amount, only if there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recorded amounts and the Bank intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 there is not offsetting of financial asset and liability balances.

vi. | Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities

The accounting treatment of transfers of financial assets is determined by the extent and the manner in which the risks and rewards associated with the transferred assets are transferred to third parties:

i. | If the Bank transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to third parties, as in the case of unconditional sales of financial assets, sales under repurchase agreements at fair value at the date of repurchase, sales of financial assets with a purchased call option or written put option deeply out of the money, utilization of assets in which the transferor does not retain subordinated debt nor grants any credit enhancement to the new holders, and other similar cases, the transferred financial asset is derecognized from the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position and any rights or obligations retained or created in the transfer are simultaneously recorded.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

ii. | If the Bank retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership associated with the transferred financial asset, as in the case of sales of financial assets under repurchase agreements at a fixed price or at the sale price plus interest, securities lending agreements under which the borrower undertakes to return the same or similar assets, and other similar cases, the transferred financial asset is not derecognized from the Consolidated Interim Financial Statement of Financial Position and continues to be measured by the same criteria as those used before the transfer. However, the following items are recorded:

| - | An associated financial liability for an amount equal to the consideration received; this liability is subsequently measured at amortized cost.
| - | Both the income from the transferred (but not removed) financial asset as well as any expenses incurred due to the new financial liability.

iii. | If the Bank neither transfers nor substantially retains all the risks and rewards of ownership associated with the transferred financial asset—as in the case of sales of financial assets with a purchased call option or written put option that is not deeply in or out of the money, securitization of assets in which the transferor retains a subordinated debt or other type of credit enhancement for a portion of the transferred asset, and other similar cases, the following distinction is made:

| a. | If the transferor does not retain control of the transferred financial asset: the asset is derecognized from the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position and any rights or obligations retained or created in the transfer are recognized.

| b. | If the transferor retains control of the transferred financial asset: it continues to be recognized in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position for an amount equal to its exposure to changes in value and a financial liability associated with the transferred financial asset is recorded. The net carrying amount of the transferred asset and the associated liability is the amortized cost of the rights and obligations retained, if the transferred asset is measured at amortized cost, or the fair value of the rights and obligations retained, if the transferred asset is measured at fair value.

Accordingly, financial assets are only derecognized from the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position when the rights over the cash flows they generate have terminated or when all the inherent risks and rewards of ownership have been substantially transferred to third parties. Similarly, financial liabilities are only derecognized from the Consolidated Interim Financial Statement Financial Position when the obligations specified in the contract are discharged or cancelled or the contract has matured.

i) | Recognizing income and expenses

The most significant criteria used by the Bank to recognize its revenues and expenses are summarized as follows:

i. | Interest revenue, interest expense, and similar items

Interest revenue, expense and similar items are recorded on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

However, when a given operation or transaction is past due by 90 days or more, originated from a refinancing or renegotiation, or when the Bank believes that the debtor poses a high risk of default, the interest and adjustments pertaining to these transactions are not recorded directly in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income unless they have been actually received.

This interest and adjustments are generally referred to as “suspended” and are recorded as memorandum accounts in they are reported as part of the complementary information thereto and as memorandum accounts. This interest is recognized as income, when collected.

The resumption of interest income recognition of previously impaired loans only occurs when such loans become current (i.e. payments were received such that the loans are contractually past-due for less than 90 days) or they are no longer classified under the C3, C4, C5, or C6 risk categories (for loans individually evaluated for impairment).

ii. | Commissions, fees, and similar items

Fee and commission income and expenses are recognized in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income using criteria stablished in IFRS 15 “Revenue from contracts with customers”.

Under IFRS 15, the Bank recognize revenue when (or as) satisfied a performance obligations by transferring a service (ie an asset) to a customer; under this definition an asset is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of that asset. The Bank considers the terms of the contract and its customary business practices to determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

The Bank transfers control of a good or service over time and, therefore, satisfies a performance obligation and recognises revenue over time, and/or the Bank satisfies the performance obligation at a point in time.

The main income arising from commissions, fees and similar items correspond to:

| - | Fees and commissions for lines of credits and overdrafts:includes accrued fees related to granting lines of credit and overdrafts in checking accounts.

| - | Fees and commissions for guarantees and letters of credit:includes accrued fees in the period relating to granting of guarantee payment for current and contingent third party obligations.

| - | Fees and commissions for card services:includes accrued and earned commissions in the period related to use of credit cards, debit cards and other cards.

| - | Fees and commissions for management of accounts:includes accrued commissions for the maintenance of checking, savings and other accounts.

| - | Fees and commissions for collections and payments:includes income arising from collections and payments services provided by the Bank.

| - | Fees and commissions for intermediation and management of securities:includes income from brokerage, placements, administration and securitie's custody services.

| - | Fees and commissions for insurance brokerage fees: includes income arising for insurances distribution.

| - | Other fees and commissions:includes income arising from currency changes,financial advisory, cashier check issuance, placement of financial products and onlilne banking services.

The main expense arising from commissions, fees and similar items correspond to:

| - | Compensation for card operation:includes commission expenses for credit and debit card operations related to income commissions card services.

| - | Fees and commissions for securities transactions:includes commissions expense for deposits, securities custody service and securitie's brokerage.

| - | Other fees and commissions:includes mainly expenses generayed from online services.

The Bank has incorporated disaggregated revenue disclosure and reportable segment relationship in Note 25.

Additionaly, the Bank maintains certain loyalty programme associated to its credit cards services, for which has deferred a percentage of the consideration received in the statement of financial position to comply with its related performance obligation according IFRS 15, or has liquidated on a monthly basis as far they arise.

iii. | Non-financial income and expenses

They are recognized in accordance with the criteria established in IFRS 15, identifying the performance obligation and when they are satisfied (accrued).

iv. | Commissions in the formalization of loans

The financial commissions that arise in the formalization of loans, mainly the opening or study and information commissions, are periodized and recorded in the Interim Statement of the Consolidated Income throughout the life of the loan.

j) | Impairment

i. | Financial assets:

A financial asset, other than that at fair value through profit and loss, is evaluated on each financial statement filing date to determine whether objective evidence of impairment exists.

A financial asset or group of financial assets will be impaired if, and only if, objective evidence of impairment exists as a result of one or more events that occurred after initial recognition of the asset (“event causing the loss”), and this event or events causing the loss have an impact on the estimated future cash flows of a financial asset or group of financial assets.

An impairment loss relating to financial assets recorded at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between the recorded amount of the asset and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

Individually significant financial assets are individually tested to determine their impairment. The remaining financial assets are evaluated collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.

All impairment losses are recorded in income. Any impairment loss relating to a financial asset available for sale previously recorded in equity is transferred to profit or loss.

The reversal of an impairment loss occurs only if it can be objectively related to an event occurring after the initial impairment loss was recorded. The reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss has been recognized for the asset in prior years. The reversal is recorded in income with the exception of available for sale equity financial assets, in which case it is recorded in other comprehensive income.

ii. | Non-financial assets:

The Bank’s non-financial assets, excluding investment properties, are reviewed at the reporting date to determine whether they show signs of impairment (i.e. its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount). If any such evidence exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated, in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

In connection with other assets, impairment losses recorded in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether the loss has decreased and should be reversed. The increased carrying amount of an asset other than goodwill attributable to a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Losses for goodwill impairment recognized through capital gains are not reversed.

k) | Property, plant, and equipment

This category includes the amount of buildings, land, furniture, vehicles, computer hardware and other fixed assets owned by the consolidated entities or acquired under finance leases. Assets are classified according to their use as follows:

i. | Property, plant and equipment for own use

Property, plant and equipment for own use includes but is not limited to tangible assets received by the consolidated entities in full or partial satisfaction of financial assets representing accounts receivable from third parties which are intended to be held for continuing own use and tangible assets acquired under finance leases. These assets are presented at acquisition cost less the related accumulated depreciation and, if applicable, any impairment losses resulting from comparing the net value of each item to the respective recoverable amount.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the acquisition cost of assets less their residual value, assuming that the land on which buildings and other structures stand has an indefinite life and, therefore, is not subject to depreciation.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

The Bank applies the following useful lives for the tangible assets that comprise its assets:

ITEM |  | Useful life (in months) |
Land |  |  | - |
Paintings and works of art |  |  | - |
Carpets and curtains |  |  | 36 |
Computers and hardware |  |  | 36 |
Vehicles |  |  | 36 |
IT systems and software |  |  | 36 |
ATMs |  |  | 60 |
Other machines and equipment |  |  | 60 |
Office furniture |  |  | 60 |
Telephone and communication systems |  |  | 60 |
Security systems |  |  | 60 |
Rights over telephone lines |  |  | 60 |
Air conditioning systems |  |  | 84 |
Other installations |  |  | 120 |
Buildings |  |  | 1,200 |

The consolidated entities assess at each reporting period whether there is any indicator that the carrying amount of any tangible asset exceeds its recoverable amount. If this is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and future depreciation charges are adjusted in accordance with the revised carrying amount and to the new remaining useful life.

The estimated useful lives of the items of property, plant and equipment held for own use are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to detect significant changes. If changes are detected, the useful lives of the assets are adjusted by correcting the depreciation charge to be recorded in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income in future years on the basis of the new useful lives.

Maintenance expenses relating to tangible assets held for own use are recorded as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

ii. | Assets leased out under operating leases

The criteria used to record the acquisition cost of assets leased out under operating leases, to calculate their depreciation and their respective estimated useful lives, and to record their impairment losses, are the same as those for property, plant and equipment held for own use.

l) | Leases

i. | Right-of-use assets and obligation for lease contract

The Bank is party to lease contracts for offices and branches, all those required to carry out its business activities. Contract terms are negotiated individually and include a wide range of terms and conditions.

Leases are recognized, measured and presented in accordance with IFRS 16 “Leases”. This requires that an asset be determined by right of use and its corresponding liability at the date that the asset is available for use. Each rental payment is distributed between the liability and the financial interest. Financial interest is charged to the financial margin during the period of the lease, as is the right-of-use asset that depreciates linearly over the duration of the contract.

The term of the lease includes the non-cancelable period established in the lease agreements, and they generally have a clause of automatic renewal, which are not included in the calculation of the lease liability since the clause requires mutual agreement. Additionally, each party has the ability to terminate the contract before expiration, upon notice. For both concepts, only the current contractual period for the calculation of the impact of this new regulation. While, for leases with undefined useful life undefined, the Bank has determined to assign a useful life equal to the longer non-cancelable period of its lease agreements.

The present value of the lease payments is determined using the discount rate that represents the incremental rate of the Bank at the start date of the contracts, based on the duration of each of them from the initial date of application.

The Bank has elected to apply IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach, and does not restate comparative figures. Thus, disclosures related to prior year were prepared under IAS 17 Leases.

At initial measurement, the Bank measures the right-of-use asset at cost. The rent of these leases are according in UF, and payable in Chilean pesos. According to the provisions of Circular No. 3,649 of the CMF (ex SBIF), the monthly variation in UF that affects the contracts established in said monetary unit should be treated as a new measurement, and therefore, readjustments should be recognized as a modification to the obligation and in parallel the amount of the asset must be adjusted for the right to use leased assets.

The Bank have elected the practical expediente by not to applying the new guidance to leases whose term will end within 12 months of the date of initial application. In those cases, the leases are accounted for as short-term leases, and the lease payments associated with them will be recognised as an expense from short-term leases.

The Bank has not entered into to lease agreements with guarantee clauses for residual value or variable lease payments.

ii. | Finance leases

Finance leases are leases that substantially transfer all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset to the lessee.

When a consolidated entity is the lessor of an asset, the sum of the present value of the lease payments receivable from the lessee, including the exercise price of the lessee’s purchase option at the end of the lease term, which is equivalent to one additional lease payment and so is reasonably certain to be exercised, is recognized as lending to third parties and is therefore included under “Loans and accounts receivable from customers” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position.

When a consolidated entity is a lessee, it reports the cost of leased assets in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Financial Position based on the nature of the leased asset, and simultaneously records a liability for the same amount (which is the lower of the fair value of the leased asset, and the sum of the present value of the lease payments payable to the lessor plus, if appropriate, the exercise price of the purchase option). The depreciation policy for these assets is the same as that for property, plant and equipment for own use.

In both cases, the finance income and finance expenses arising from these contracts are credited and debited, respectively, to “Interest income” and “Interest expense” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income so as to achieve a constant rate of return over the lease term.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

iii. | Operating leases

In operating leases, ownership of the leased asset and substantially all the risks and rewards incidental thereto remain with the lessor.

When a consolidated entity is the lessor, it reports the acquisition cost of the leased assets under "Property, plant and equipment”. The depreciation policy for these assets is the same as that for similar items of property, plant and equipment held for own use and revenues from operating leases is recorded on a straight line basis under “Other operating income” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

When a consolidated entity is the lessee, the lease expenses, including any incentives granted by the lessor, are charged on a straight line basis to “Other operating expenses” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income. As of January 1, 2019, IFRS 16 Leases apply to this type of lease.

m) | Factoring transactions

Factored receivables are valued at the amount disbursed by the Bank in exchange of invoices or other commercial instruments representing the credit which the transferor assigns to the Bank. The price difference between the amounts disbursed and the actual face value of the credits is recorded as interest income in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income using the effective interest method over the financing period.

When the assignment of these instruments involves no liability on the part of the assignee, the Bank assumes the risks of insolvency of the parties responsible for payment.

n) | Intangible assets

Intangible assets are identified as non-monetary assets (separately identifiable from other assets) without physical substance which arise as a result of legal or contractual rights. The Bank recognizes an intangible asset, whether purchased or self-created (at cost), when the cost of the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the Bank.

Intangible assets are recorded initially at acquisition or production cost and are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

Internally developed computer software is recorded as an intangible asset if, among other requirements (basically the Bank’s ability to use or sell it), it can be identified and its ability to generate future economic benefits can be demonstrated.

Intangible assets are amortized linearly based on the estimated useful life, which has been defined by default in 36 months, and can be modified to the extent that it is demonstrated that the Bank will benefit from the use of the intangible for a different period mentioned above.

Expenditure on research activities is recorded as an expense in the year in which it is incurred and cannot be subsequently capitalized.

o) | Cash and cash equivalents

The indirect method is used to prepare the cash flow statement, starting with the Bank’s consolidated pre-tax income and incorporating non-cash transactions, as well as income and expenses associated with cash flows, which are classified as investing or financing activities.

The cash flow statement was prepared considering the following definitions:

| i. | Cash flows: Inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents, such as deposits with the Central Bank of Chile, deposits in domestic banks, and deposits in foreign banks.

| ii. | Operating activities: Principal revenue-producing activities performed by banks and other activities that cannot be classified as investing or financing activities.

| iii. | Investing activities: The acquisition and disposal of long-term assets and other investments not included in cash and cash equivalents.

| iv. | Financing Activities: Activities that result in changes in the size and composition of equity and liabilities that are not operating or investing activities.

p) | Allowances for loan losses

The Bank continuously evaluates the entire loan portfolio and contingent loans, as it is established by the CMF, to timely provide the necessary and sufficient provisions to cover expected losses associated with the characteristics of the debtors and their loans, which determine payment behavior and recovery.

The Bank has established allowances to cover probable losses on loans and account receivables in accordance with instructions issued by Superintendency of Banks and Financial Institutions CMF (ex SBIF) and models of credit risk rating and assessment approved by the Board’s Committee, including the amendments introduced by Circular N°3,573 and N°3,584 which establishes a standard method for residential mortgage, commercialloans and complements and specifies instructions on provisions and loans classified in the impaired portfolio, and subsequent amendments.

The Bank uses the following models established by the CMF, to evaluate its loan portfolio and credit risk:

| - | Individual assessment - where the Bank assesses a debtor as individually significant when their loans are significant, or when the debtor cannot be classified within a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics, due to its size, complexity or level of exposure.

| - | Group assessment - a group assessment is relevant for analyzing a large number of transactions with small individual balances due from individuals or small companies. The Bank groups debtors with similar credit risk characteristics giving to each group a default probability and recovery rate based on a historical analysis. The Bank has implemented standard models for mortgage loans (Circular N°3,573 and N°3,584), and commercial loan (Circular N° 3,638 and N°3,647) and internal models for consumer loans.

I. | Allowances for individual assessment

An individual assessment of commercial debtors is necessary according to the CMF, in the case of companies which, due to their size, complexity or level of exposure, must be known and analyzed in detail.

The analysis of the debtor is primarily focused on their credit quality and their risk category classification of the debtor and of their respective contingent loans and loans These are assigned to one of the following portfolio categories: Normal, Substandard and Impaired. The risk factors considered are: industry or economic sector, owners or managers, financial situation and payment ability, and payment behavior.

The portfolio categories and their definitions are as follows:

i. | Normal Portfolio includes debtors with a payment ability that allows them to meet their obligations and commitments. Evaluations of the current economic and financial environment do not indicate that this will change. The classifications assigned to this portfolio are categories from A1 to A6.

ii. | Substandard Portfolio includes debtors with financial difficulties or a significant deterioration of their payment ability. There is reasonable doubt concerning the future reimbursement of the capital and interest within the contractual terms, with limited ability to meet short-term financial obligations. The classifications assigned to this portfolio are categories from B1 to B4.

iii. | Impaired Portfolio includes debtors and their loans where repayment is considered remote, with a reduced or no likelihood of repayment. This portfolio includes debtors who have stopped paying their loans or that indicate that they will stop paying, as well as those who require forced debt restructuration, reducing the obligation or delaying the term of the capital or interest, and any other debtor who is over 90 days overdue in his payment of interest or capital. The classifications assigned to this portfolio are categories from C1 to C6.

Normal and Substandard Compliance Portfolio

As part of individual assessment, the Bank classifies debtors into the following categories, assigning them a probability of non-performance (PNP) and severity (SEV), which result in the expected loss percentages:

Portfolio |  | Debtor’s Category |  | Probability of Non-Performance (%) |  |  | Severity (%) |  |  | Expected Loss (%) |

The Bank first determines all credit exposures, which includes the accounting balances of loans and accounts receivable from customers plus contingent loans, less any amount recovered through executing the financial guarantees or collateral covering the operations. The percentages of expected loss are applied to this exposure. In the case of collateral, the Bank must demonstrate that the value assigned reasonably reflects the value obtainable on disposal of the assets or equity instruments. When the credit risk of the debtor is substituted for the credit quality of the collateral or guarantor, this methodology is applicable only when the guarantor or surety is an entity qualified in a assimilable investment grade by a local or international company rating agency recognized by the CMF. Guaranteed securities cannot be deducted from the exposure amount, only financial guarantees and collateral can be considered.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank must maintain a minimum provision of 0.5% over loans and contingent loans in the normal portfolio.

Impaired Portfolio

The impaired portfolio includes all loans and the entire value of contingent loans of the debtors that are over 90 days overdue on the payment of interest or principal of any loan at the end of the month. It also includes debtors who have been granted a loan to refinance loans over 60 days overdue, as well as debtors who have undergone forced restructuration or partial debt condonation.

The impaired portfolio excludes: a) residential mortgage loans, with payments less than 90 days overdue; and, b) loans to finance higher education according to Law 20,027, provided the breach conditions outlined in Circular N°3,454 of December 10, 2008 are not fulfilled.

The provision for an impaired portfolio is calculated by determining the expected loss rate for the exposure, adjusting for amounts recoverable through available financial guarantees and deducting the present value of recoveries made through collection services after the related expenses.

Once the expected loss range is determined, the related provision percentage is applied over the exposure amount, which includes loans and contingent loans related to the debtor.

The allowance rates applied over the calculated exposure are as follows:

Classification |  | Estimated range of loss |  | Allowance |
C1 |  | Up to 3% |  |  | 2% |
C2 |  | Greater than 3% and less than 20% |  |  | 10% |
C3 |  | Greater than 20% and less than 30% |  |  | 25% |
C4 |  | Greater than 30% and less than 50% |  |  | 40% |
C5 |  | Greater than 50% and less than 80% |  |  | 65% |
C6 |  | Greater than 80% |  |  | 90% |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

Loans are maintained in the impaired portfolio until their payment ability is normal, notwithstanding the write off of each particular credit that meets conditions of Title II of Chapter B-2. Once the circumstances that led to classification in the Impaired Portfolio have been overcome, the debtor can be removed from this portfolio once all the following conditions are met:

| i. | The debtor has no obligations of the debtor with the Bank more than 30 days overdue;

| ii. | the debtor has not been granted loans to pay its obligations;

| iii. | at least one of the payments include the amortization of capital;

| iv. | if the debtor has made partial loan payments in the last six months, two payments have already been made;

| v. | if the debtor must pay monthly installments for one or more loans, four consecutive installments have been made;

| vi. | the debtor does not appear to have bad debts in the information provided by the CMF ( ex SBIF), except for insignificant amounts.

II. | Allowances for group assessments

Group assessments are used to estimate allowances required for loans with low balances related to individuals or small companies.

Group assessments require the formation of groups of loans with similar characteristics by type of debtor and loan conditions, in order to establish both the group payment behavior and the recoveries of their defaulted loans, using technically substantiated estimates and prudential criteria. The model used is based on the characteristics of the debtor, payment history, outstanding loans and default among other relevant factors.

The Bank uses methodologies to establish credit risk, based on internal models to estimate the allowances for the group-evaluated portfolio. This portfolio includes commercial loans with debtors that are not assessed individually, mortgage and consumer loans (including installment loans, credit cards and overdraft lines). These methods allow the Bank to independently identify the portfolio behavior and establish the provision required to cover losses arising during the year.

The customers are classified according to their internal and external characteristics into profiles, using a customer-portfolio model to differentiate each portfolio’s risk in an appropriate manner. This is known as the profile allocation method.

The profile allocation method is based on a statistical construction model that establishes a relationship through logistic regression between variables (for example default, payment behavior outside the Bank, socio-demographic data) and a response variable which determines the client’s risk, which in this case is over 90 days overdue. Hence, common profiles are established and assigned a Probability of Non-Performance (PNP) and a recovery rate based on a historical analysis known as Severity (SEV).

Therefore, once the customers have been profiled, and the loan’s profile assigned a PNP and a SEV, the exposure at default (EXP) is calculated. This exposure includes the book value of the loans and accounts receivable from the customer, plus contingent loans, less any amount that can be recovered by executing guarantees (for credits other than consumer loans).

Notwithstanding the above, on establishing provisions associated with mortgage and commercial loans, the Bank must recognize minimum provisions according to standard methods established by the CMF (ex SBIF) for those types of loans. While this is considered to be a prudent minimum base, it does not relieve the Bank of its responsibility to have its own methodologies of determining adequate provisions to protect the credit risk of the portfolio.

Standard method of residential mortgage loan provisions

As of January 1, 2016 and in accordance with Circular N° 3,573 issued by the CMF, the Bank began applying the standard method of provisions for residential mortgage loans. According to this method, the expected loss factor applicable to residential mortgage loans will depend on the default of each loan and the relationship between the outstanding principal of each loan and the value of the associated mortgage guarantee (Loans to Value, LTV) at the end of each month.

The allowance rates applied according to default and LTV are the following:

LTV Range |  | Default days at month closing |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | 1-29 |  |  |  | 30-59 |  |  |  | 60-89 |  |  |  | Impaired portfolio |

LTV =Loan capital/Value of guarantee

If the same debtor has more than one residential mortgage loan with the Bank and one of them over 90 days overdue, all their loans shall be allocated to the impaired portfolio, calculating provisions for each of them in accordance with their respective LTV.

For residential mortgage loans related to housing programs and grants from the Chilean government, the allowance rate may be weighted by a factor of loss mitigation (LM), which depends on the LTV percentage and the price of the property in the deed of sale (S), as long as the debtor has contracted auction insurance provided by the Chilean government.

Standard method of commercial loan provisions

In accordance with the Circular N°. 3,638 and N°. 3,647 issued by the CMF, as of July 1, 2019, the Bank began applying the standard model of provisions for student loans or other types of commercial loans. The impact of implementing these regulations implied an increase of approximately 4% of the stock of provisions for credit risk.

Prior to the implementation of the standard method, the Bank used its internal models for the determination of group business provisions.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

a. | Commercial leasing operations

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

Probability Non-Performance (PNP) by default and type of asset (%)

PVB > 90% |  |  | 36.20 |  |  |  | 78.90 |

PVB= Current valiue of operation/leased asset value

The determination of the PVB relationship will be made considering the appraisal value, expressed in UF for real estate and pesos for non-real estate, recorded at the time of granting the respective credit, taking into account any situations that may be causing pricing rises of the asset at that time.

b. | Student loans

For these operations, the provision factor should be applied to the student loan and the exposure of the contingent credit, when applicable. The determination of this factor depends on the type of student loan and the enforceability of the payment of capital or interest, at the end of each month. When payment is due, the factor will also depend on its default.

For the purposes of the classification of the loan, a distinction is made between those granted for the financing of higher studies granted in accordance with Law No. 20.027 (CAE) and, on the other hand, the CORFO guarantee credits or other student loans.

| c. | Generic comercial loans and factoring

For factoring operations and other commercial loans, the provision factor, applicable to the amount of the loans and the exposure of the contingent credit 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 real guarantees that protect them (PTVG), as indicated in the following tables:

Probability Non-Performance (PNP) by default and PTVG stage (%)

No guarantee |  |  |  | 56,9 |  | 35.9

The guarantees 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. A guarantee 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, nor the guarantees associated with the mortgage loans, regardless of their coverage clause, will not be considered in the calculation.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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

i. | Transactions with specific guarantees: when the debtor granted specific guarantees, for generic commercial loans and factoring, the PTVG ratio is calculated independently for each secured transaction, such as the division between the amount of the loans and the contingent credit exposure and the value of the real guarantee that protects it.

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

The amounts of the guarantees used in the PTVG ratio of numbers i) and ii) must be determined according to:

| - | The last valuation of the guarantee, be its appraisal or fair value, according to the type of real guarantee in question. For the determination of fair value, the criteria indicated in Chapter 7-12 of the Updated Collection of Standards should be considered.

| - | Possible situations that could be causing temporary increases in the values of the guarantees.

| - | Limitations on the amount of coverage established in their respective clauses.

III. | Additional provisions

According to CMF regulation, banks are allowed to establish provisions over the limits already described, to protect themselves from the risk of non-predictable economical fluctuations that could affect the macro-economic environment or a specific economic sector.

According to N°10 B-1 Chapter from the CMF Compendium of Accounting Standards, these provisions will be recorded in liabilities, similar to provisions for contingent loans.

The Board of Directors of the Bank approved the constitution of additional provisions at the end of the third quarter of 2018 for MCh$ 20,000, associated to the Bank's consumer portfolio, which were released in April 2019 (Note No. 28 ).

IV. | Charge-offs

As a general rule, charge-offs should be done when the contract rights over cash flow expire. In the case of loans, even if the above does not happen, the Bank will charge-off these amounts in accordance with Title II of Chapter B-2 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards (CMF).

These charge-offs refer to the derecognition from the Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position of the respective loan, including any not yet due future payments in the case of installment loans or leasing transactions (for which partial charge-offs do not exist).

Charge-offs are always recorded as a charge to loan risk allowances according to Chapter B-1 of the Compendium of Accounting Regulations, no matter the reason for the charge-off. Any payment received related to a loan previously charged-off will be recognized as recovery of loan previously charged-off at the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

Other transactions without collateral |  | 24 months
Commercial loans with collateral |  | 36 months
Mortgage loans |  | 48 months
Consumer leasing |  | 6 months
Other non-mortgage leasing transactions |  | 12 months
Mortgage leasing (household and business) |  | 36 months

V. | Recovery of loans previously charged off and accounts receivable from customers

Any recovery on “Loans and accounts receivable from customers” previously charged-off will be recognized as a reduction in the credit risk provisons in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

Any renegotiation of a loan previously charged-off will not give rise to income, as long as the operation continues being considered as impaired. The cash payments received must be treated as recoveries of charged-off loans.

The renegotiated loan can only be included again in assets if it is no longer considered as impaired, also recognizing the capitalization income as recovery of charged-off loans.

q) | Provisions, contingent assets, and contingent liabilities

Provisions are liabilities of uncertain timing or amount. Provisions are recognized in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position when the Bank:

i. | Has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past events, and

ii. | it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle these obligations and the amount of these resources can be reliably measured.

Contingent assets or contingent liabilities are any potential rights or obligations arising from past events whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence if one or more uncertain future events that are not wholly within control of the Bank.

The Consolidated Interim Financial Statements reflect all significant provisions for which it is estimated that the probability of having to meet the obligation is more than likely than not. Provisions are quantified using the best available information regarding the consequences of the event giving rise to them and are reviewed and adjusted at the end of accounting period. Provisions are used when the liabilities for which they were originally recognized are settled. Partial or total reversals are recognized when such liabilities cease to exist or are reduced.

Provisions are classified according to the obligation covered as follows:

- | Provisions for employee salaries and expenses

- | Provisions for mandatory dividends

- | Provisions for contingent loan risks

- | Provisions for contingencies

r) | Income taxes and deferred taxes

The Bank records, when appropriate, deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax effects attributable to differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities is based on the tax rate, in accordance with the applicable tax laws, using the tax rate that applies to the period when the deferred asset and liability will be recovered or settled. The future effects of changes in tax legislation or tax rates are recorded in deferred taxes from the date on which the law is enacted or substantially enacted.

Current taxes for the asset correspond to the provisional payments that exceed the provision for income tax or other loans at income tax, such as training expenses or donations to universities. Additionally, the monthly tax payment (P.P.M.) for recovering by profits absorbed by tax losses. In the case of liabilities they correspond to the provision for income tax calculated according to the results tax for the period, deducted the mandatory or voluntary provisional payments and other credits that apply to this obligation.

s) | Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires the Bank’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In certain cases, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) require that assets or liabilities be recorded or disclosed at their fair values. The fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between informed market participants at the measurement date. When available, quoted market prices in active markets have been used as the basis for measurement. When quoted market prices in active markets are not available, the Bank has estimated such values based on the best information available, including the use of internal modeling and other valuation techniques.

The Bank has established allowances to cover cover probable losses, to estimate allowances. These allowances must be regularly reviewed taking into consideration factors such as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, trends in forecasted portfolio quality, credit quality and economic conditions that may adversely affect the borrowers’ ability to pay. Increases in the allowances for loan losses are reflected as “Provision for loan losses” in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income.

Loans are charged-off when the contractual rights for the cash flows expire, however, for loans and accounts receivable from customers the bank will charge-off in accordance with Title II of Chapter B-2 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards issued by the CMF (ex SBIF). Charge-offs are recorded as a reduction of the allowance for loan losses.

The relevant estimates and assumptions made to calculate provisions are regularly reviewed by the Bank’s Management to quantify certain assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and commitments. Revised accounting estimates are recorded in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any affected future period.

These estimates are based on the best available information and mainly refer to:

- | Allowances for loan losses (Notes 8, 9, and 28)

- | Impairment losses of certain assets (Notes 7, 8, 9, 10, and 31)

- | The useful lives of tangible and intangible assets (Notes 11, 12 and 31)

- | The fair value of assets and liabilities (Notes 6, 7, 10 and 34)

- | Commitments and contingencies (Note 20)

- | Current and deferred taxes (Note 13)

t) | Non-current assets held for sale

The Bank will classify the respective investments in associates so far held in Redbanc, Transbank and Nexus as held for sale, in accordance with IFRS 5 “Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations”, because it expects to recover the amount in books primarily through the sale of such investments. In order to perform this reclassification, the Bank has made sure to comply with the requirements established for this:

| ● | It must be available in its current conditions for immediate sale and its sale must be highly probable.

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

| ● | I must also expect the sale to meet the conditions for recognition as a sale ended within the year following the date of classification.

For this, the Bank will measure investments at book value, given that it represents the lowest value in relation to fair value less costs to sell. Additionally, the Bank will recognize any impairment loss on non-current assets held for sale, such as a reduction in the value of those assets to fair value less costs to sell.

As of September 30, 2019, the Bank has classified non-current assets as held for sale. For more information see Note 35.

Assets received or awarded in lieu of payment.

Assets received or awarded in lieu of payment of loans and accounts receivable from clients are recognized at their fair value. A price is agreed upon by the parties through negotiation or, when the parties do not reach an agreement, at the amount at which the Bank is awarded those assets at a judicial auction. In the both cases, an independent appraisal is performed.

Any excess of the outstanding loan balance over the fair value is recognized in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Income under “Provision for loan losses”.

These assets are subsequently valued at the lower of the amount initially recorded and the net realizable value, which corresponds to its fair value (liquidity value determined through an independent appraisal) less their respective costs of sale. The difference between both are recognized in the Consolidated Statement under “Other operating expenses”.

At the end of each year the Bank performs an analysis to review the “selling costs” of assets received or awarded in lieu of payments which will be applied at this date and during the following year. On December 31, 2018 the average selling cost has been estimated at 2.2% of the appraisal value (3.4% for December 31, 2017). Additionally, every 18 months a review of the appraisals (independent) is carried out to adjust the fair value of the assets.

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net income attributable to the equity holders of the Bank by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated in a similar manner to basic earnings, but the weighted average number of outstanding shares is adjusted to take into consideration the potential diluting effect of stock options, warrants, and convertible debt. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank did not have any instruments that generated dilution.

v) | Temporary acquisition (assignment) of assets and liabilities

Purchases or sales of financial assets under non-optional repurchase agreements at a fixed price (repos) are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as an financial assignment based on the nature of the debtor (creditor) under “Deposits in the Central Bank of Chile,” “Deposits in financial institutions” or “Loans and accounts receivable from customers” (“Central Bank of Chile deposits,” “Deposits from financial institutions” or “Customer deposits”).

Differences between the purchase and sale prices are recorded as financial interest over the term of the contract.

IFRS 9, Financial Instruments - On November 12, 2009, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued IFRS 9, Financial Instruments. This Standard introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 specifies how an entity should classify and measure its financial assets. Requires that all financial assets are classified in their entirety on the basis of the entity's business model for the management of financial assets and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows of financial assets.

On October 28, 2010, the IASB published a revised version of IFRS 9, Financial Instruments. The revised Standard retains the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets that was published in November 2009, but adds guidelines on the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. Likewise, it has replicated the guidelines on the recognition of financial instruments and the implementation guides related from IAS 39 to IFRS 9. These new guidelines conclude the first phase of the IASB project to replace IAS 39. The other phases, impairment and hedge accounting, have not yet been finalized.

The guidance included in IFRS 9 on the classification and measurement of financial assets has not changed from those established in IAS 39. In other words, financial liabilities will continue to be measured either at amortized cost or at fair value with changes in results. The concept of bifurcation of derivatives incorporated in a contract for a financial asset has not changed Financial liabilities held for trading will continue to be measured at fair value with changes in results, and all other financial assets will be measured at amortized cost unless the value option is applied reasonable using the criteria currently in IAS 39.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there are two differences with respect to IAS 39:

- The presentation of the effects of changes in fair value attributable to the credit risk of a liability; and

- The elimination of the cost exemption for liabilities derivatives to be settled through the delivery of non-traded equity instruments.

On December 16, 2011, the IASB issued Mandatory Application Date of IFRS 9 and Disclosures of the Transition, deferring the effective date of both the 2009 and 2010 versions to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015 . Prior to the amendments, the application of IFRS 9 was mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 2013. The amendments change the requirements for the transition from IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement to IFRS 9.

In addition, they also modify IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures to add certain requirements in the reporting period in which the date of application of IFRS 9 is included. Finally, on July 24, 2014, it is established that the date Effective application of this rule will be for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2018.

On November 19, 2013 ASB issued "Amendment to IFRS 9: hedge accounting and amendments to IFRS 9, IFRS 7 and IAS 39", which includes a new general hedge accounting model, which is more closely aligned with risk management, providing more useful information to the users of the financial statements. On the other hand, the requirements relating to the fair value option for financial liabilities were changed to address the credit risk itself, this improvement establishes that the effects of changes in the credit risk of a liability should not affect the result of the period a unless.

the liabilities remain to negotiate; the early adoption of this modification is permitted without the application of the other requirements of IFRS 9. In addition, it conditions the effective date of entry into force upon completion of the IFRS 9 project, allowing its adoption in the same way.

On July 24, 2014, the IASB published the final version of IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, including the regulations already issued together with a new expected loss model and minor modifications to the classification and measurement requirements for financial assets, adding a new category of financial instruments: assets at fair value with changes in other comprehensive result for certain debt instruments. It also includes an additional guide on how to apply the business model and testing of contractual cash flow characteristics.

On October 12, 2017, "Amendment to IFRS 9: Characteristics of Anticipated Cancellation with Negative Compensation" was published, which clarifies that according to the current requirements of IFRS 9, the conditions established in Test SPPI are not met if the Bank should make a settlement payment when the client decides to terminate the credit. With the introduction of this modification, in relation to termination rights, it is allowed to measure at amortized cost (or FVOCI) in the case of negative compensation.

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 - Sale and Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture - On September 11, 2014, the IASB published this amendment, which clarifies the scope of the gains and losses recognized in a transaction that involves to 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 of the gains or losses should be recognized against the loss of control of a business. Likewise, profits or losses resulting from the sale or contribution of a non-business subsidiary (IFRS 3 definition) to an associate or joint venture must be recognized only to the extent of unrelated interests in the associate or business set.

This standard was initially effective as of January 1, 2016, however, on December 17, 2015 the IASB issued "Effective Date of Amendment to IFRS 10 and IAS 28" indefinitely postponing the entry into force of this standard. As such, management will evaluate its potential effects when a new effective date is established.

Conceptual framework for financial reporting 2018 - This framework was issued on March 29, 2018, and its purpose is to: (a) assist the IASB in the development of IFRS regulations on a consistent basis of concepts, (b) assist preparers in the development of consistent accounting policies when there is no standard that applies to a particular transaction or other event, or when a standard allows a series of accounting policies; and (c) assist the parties in the understanding and interpretation of the regulations.

The revised framework includes a new chapter on measurement, guidelines for reporting financial performance, improvements to definition and guidance, and clarifications of important issues (for example: management functions, prudence and measurement of uncertainties in financial reporting).

The IASB also included an amendment that updates references to the framework in certain standards. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2020. Bank Management is evaluating the potential impact of this modification.

Amendments to IFRS 3 - Definition of a business - On October 22, 2018, the IASB published this amendment, which clarifies the business definition, with the objective of helping entities determine whether a transaction should be accounted for as a business combination. or as the acquisition of an asset. The modifications:

| (a) | Clarify that, to be considered a business, an acquired set of activities and assets must include, as a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together contribute significantly to the ability to produce products;

| (b) | eliminate the evaluation of whether market participants can replace the missing processes or supplies and continue with the production of products;

| (c) | add guides and illustrative examples to help entities assess whether a substantial process has been acquired;

| (d) | restrict the definitions of a business or products focusing on goods and services provided to customers and eliminate the reference to the ability to reduce costs; y

| (e) | they add an optional concentration test that allows a simplified evaluation of whether a set of activities and businesses acquired is not a business.

Entities are required to apply the amendments to transactions whose acquisition date is from the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2020. Early application is permitted. The Administration does not initially see an effect until a business combination is made.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

1. | IFRS 16 implementation

On January 1, 2019, IFRS 16 Leases has become effective; this standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. The objective is to ensure that lessees and lessors provide relevant information in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, thus a lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments.

IFRS 16 supersedes IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases—Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease.

The Bank has elected to adopt IFRS 16 using a modified retrospective approach at the date of initial application, therefore, it has recognise a right-of-use asset for an amount equal to the lease liability, which amounted MCh$154,284.

Below is the detail of impacts and reclassifications as of January 1, 2019:

|  | Balance as of December 31, 2018 |  |  | Additions |  |  | Reclassifications (*) |  |  | Balance as of January 01, 2019 |

Corporate Activities (“Other”)

This segment mainly includes the results of our Financial Management Division, which develops global management functions, including managing inflation rate risk, foreign currency gaps, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is managed mainly through wholesale deposits, debt issuances and the Bank’s available for sale portfolio. This segment also manages capital allocation by unit. These activities usually result in a negative contribution to income.

In addition, this segment encompasses all the intra-segment income and all the activities not assigned to a given segment or product with customers.

The segments’ accounting policies are those described in the summary of accounting policies. The Bank earns most of its income in the form of interest income, fee and commission income and income from financial operations. To evaluate a segment’s financial performance and make decisions regarding the resources to be assigned to segments, the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) bases his assessment on the segment's interest income, fee and commission income, and expenses.

Fair value hedge

The Bank uses cross-currency swaps, interest rate swaps and call money swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in fair value of hedged items attributable to interest rates. The aforementioned hedging instruments change the effective cost of long-term issuances from a fixed interest rate to a variable interest rate.

The hedged items and hedge instruments under fair value hedges as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, classified by term to maturity are as follows:

The Bank uses cross currency swaps to hedge the risk from variability of cash flows attributable to changes in the interest rates of mortgages, bonds and interbank loans at a variable rate. To cover the inflation risk in some items, both forwards as well as currency swaps are used.

The notional values of the hedged items as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and the periods when the cash flows will be generated are as follows:

b.3) Forecasted cash flows for exchange rate risk:

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank did not have cash flow hedges for exchange rate risk.

| c) | The accumulated effect of the mark to market adjustment of cash flow hedges produced by hedge instruments used in hedged cash flow was recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, specifically within Other comprehensive income as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and is as follows:

Net flows |  |  | (38,330 | ) |  |  | (47,248 | )

Since the inflows and outflows for both the hedged element and the hedging instrument mirror each other, the hedges are nearly 100% effective, which means that the fluctuations of fair value attributable to risk components are almost completely offset.

During the year, the bank did not have any cash flow hedges of forecast transactions.

d) | Below is a presentation of income generated by cash flow hedges amount that were reclassified from other comprehensive income to income for the year:

NOTE 22

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS (BASEL)

In accordance with Chilean General Banking Law, the Bank must maintain a minimum ratio of effective equity to risk-weighted consolidated assets of 8% net of required allowances, and a minimum ratio of basic equity to consolidated total assets of 3%, net of required allowances. However, as a result of the Bank’s merger in 2002, the CMF (ex SBIF) has determined that the Bank’s combined effective equity cannot be lower than 11% of its risk-weighted assets. Effective net equity is defined for these purposes as basic equity (capital and reserves) plus subordinated bonds, up to a maximum of 50% of basic equity.

Assets are allocated to different risk categories, each of which is assigned a weighting percentage according to the amount of capital required to be held for each type of asset. For example, cash, deposits in banks and financial instruments issued by the Central Bank of Chile have a 0% risk weighting, meaning that it is not necessary to hold equity to back these assets according to current regulations. Property, plant and equipment have a 100% risk weighting, meaning that a minimum capital equivalent to 11% of these assets must be held. All derivatives traded off the exchanges are also assigned a risk weighting, using a conversion factor applied to their notional values, to determine the amount of their exposure to credit risk, Off-balance-sheet contingent credits are also included for weighting purposes, as “Credit equivalents”.

According to Chapter 12-1 of the CMF (ex SBIF), Recopilación Actualizada de Normas [Updated Compilation of Rules] effective January 2010, the CMF changed existing regulation with the enforcement of Chapter B-3 from the Compendium of Accounting Standards, which changed the risk exposure of contingent allocations from 100% exposure to the following:

Type of contingent loan |  | Exposure |
a) Pledges and other commercial commitments |  |  | 100 | %
b) Foreign letters of credit confirmed |  |  | 20 | %
c) Letters of credit issued |  |  | 20 | %
d) Guarantees |  |  | 50 | %
e) Interbank guarantee letters |  |  | 100 | %
f) Available lines of credit |  |  | 35 | %
g) Other loan commitments: |  |  |  |
- Higher education loans Law N°, 20,027 |  |  | 15 | %
- Other |  |  | 100 | %
h) Other contingent loans |  |  | 100 | %

NOTE 33

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Associated and dependent entities are the Bank’s “related parties”, however, this also includes its “key personnel” from the executive staff (members of the Bank’s Board of Directors and Managers of Banco Santander-Chile and its affiliates, together with their close relatives), as well as the entities over which the key personnel could exercise significant influence or control.

The Bank also includes those companies that are part of the Santander Group worldwide as related parties, given that all of them have a common parent company i.e., Banco Santander S.A. (located in Spain).

Article 89 of the Ley de Sociedades Anónimas (Public Companies Act), which is also applicable to banks, states that any transaction with a related party must be made under equitable conditions similar to those that customarily prevail in the market.

Article 84 of the Ley General de Bancos (General Banking Act) establishes limits for loans that can be granted to related parties and prohibits lending to the Bank’s directors, General Manager, or representatives.

Transactions between the Bank and its related parties are specified below and have been divided into four categories:

Companies with relation to the Santander Group

This category includes all the companies that are controlled by the Santander Group around the world, and hence, it also includes the companies over which the Bank exercises any degree of control (Affiliates and special-purpose entities).

Associated companies

This category includes the entities over which the Bank exercises a significant degree of influence, in accordance with section b) of Note 1, and which generally belong to the group of entities known as “business support companies”.

Key personnel

This category includes members of the Bank’s Board of Directors and managers of Banco Santander-Chile and its affiliates, together with their close relatives.

Other

This category encompasses the related parties that are not included in the groups identified above and which are, in general, entities over which the key personnel could exercise significant influence or control.

The terms for transactions with related parties are equivalent to those which prevail in transactions made under market conditions or to which the corresponding considerations in kind have been attributed.

NOTE 34

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction on the main market (or the most advantageous) at the measurement date in the current market conditions (in other words, an exit price) regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated by using a different valuation technique. The measurement of fair value assumes the sale transaction of an asset or the transference of the liability happens within the main asset or liability market, or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

For financial instruments with no available market prices, fair values have been estimated by using recent transactions in analogous instruments, and in the absence thereof, the present values or other valuation techniques based on mathematical valuation models sufficiently accepted by the international financial community. In the use of these models, consideration is given to the specific particularities of the asset or liability to be valued, and especially to the different kinds of risks associated with the asset or liability.

These techniques are significantly influenced by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, the estimates of future cash flows and prepayment expectations. Hence, the fair value estimated for an asset or liability may not coincide exactly with the price at which that asset or liability could be delivered or settled on the date of its valuation, and may not be justified in comparison with independent markets.

Determination of fair value of financial instruments

Below is a comparison between the value at which the Bank’s financial assets and liabilities are recorded and their fair value as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Fair value is approximated to book value in the following accounts, due to their short-term nature in the following cases: cash and bank deposits, operations with liquidation in progress and buyback contracts as well as security loans.

In addition, the fair value estimates presented above do not attempt to estimate the value of the Bank’s profits generated by its business activity, nor its future activities, and accordingly, they do not represent the Bank’s value as a going concern.

Below is a detail of the methods used to estimate the financial instruments’ fair value.

| a) | Operations pending settlement, trading investments, available for sale investment instruments, repurchase agreements and securities loans

The estimated fair value of these financial instruments was established using market values or estimates from an available dealer, or quoted market prices of similar financial instruments. Investments with maturities of less than 1 year are evaluated at recorded value since they are considered as having a fair value not significantly different from their recorded value, due to their short maturity term. To estimate the fair value of debt investments or representative values in these lines of businesses, we take into consideration additional variables and elements, as long as they apply, including the estimate of prepayment rates and credit risk of issuers.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES, continued

| b) | Loans and accounts receivable from customers and interbank loans

Fair value of commercial, mortgage and consumer loans and credit cards is measured through a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis To do so, we use current market interest rates considering product, term, amount and similar loan quality. Fair value of loans with 90 days or more of delinquency are measured by means of the market value of the associated guarantee, minus the rate and term of expected payment. For variable rate loans whose interest rates change frequently (monthly or quarterly) and that are not subjected to any significant credit risk change, the estimated fair value is based on their book value.

| c) | Deposits

Disclosed fair value of deposits that do not bear interest and saving accounts is the amount payable at the reporting date and, therefore, equals the recorded amount. Fair value of time deposits is calculated through a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current interest rates from a monthly calendar of scheduled maturities in the market.

| d) | Short and long term issued debt instruments

The fair value of these financial instruments is calculated by using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the current incremental lending rates for similar types of loans having similar maturities.

| e) | Financial derivative contracts

The estimated fair value of financial derivative contracts is calculated using the prices quoted on the market for financial instruments having similar characteristics.

The fair value of interest rate swaps represents the estimated amount that the Bank expects to receive to cancel the contracts or agreements, considering the term structures of the interest curve, volatility of the underlying asset and credit risk of counterparties.

If there are no quoted prices from the market (either direct or indirect) for any derivative instrument, the respective fair value estimates have been calculated by using models and valuation techniques such as Black-Scholes, Hull, and Monte Carlo simulations, taking into consideration the relevant inputs/outputs such as volatility of options, observable correlations between underlying assets, counterparty credit risk, implicit price volatility, the velocity with which the volatility reverts to its average value, and the straight-line relationship (correlation) between the value of a market variable and its volatility, among others.

Fair value and hierarchy measurement

IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement, provides a hierarchy of reasonable values which separates the inputs and/or valuation technique assumptions used to measure the fair value of financial instruments. The hierarchy reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurement. The three levels of the hierarchy of fair values are the following:

● | Level 1: | the inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) on active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Bank can access on the measurement date.

● | Level 2: | inputs other than the quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

● | Level 3: | inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The hierarchy level within which the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The best evidence of a financial instrument’s fair value at the initial time is the transaction price (Level 1).

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES, continued

In cases where quoted market prices cannot be observed. Management makes its best estimate of the price that the market would set using its own internal models which in most cases use data based on observable market parameters as a significant input (Level 2) and, in very specific cases, significant inputs not observable in market data (Level 3). Various techniques are employed to make these estimates, including the extrapolation of observable market data.

Financial instruments at fair value and determined by quotations published in active markets (Level 1) include:

| - | Chilean Government and Department of Treasury bonds

Instruments which cannot be 100% observable in the market are valued according to other inputs observable in the market (Level 2).

The following financial instruments are classified under Level 2:

Type of financial instrument | Model used in valuation | Description
● Mortgage and private bonds | Present Value of Cash Flows Model | Internal Rates of Return (“IRRs”) are provided by RiskAmerica, according to the following criterion: If, at the valuation day, there are one or more valid transactions at the Santiago Stock Exchange for a given mnemonic, the reported rate is the weighted average amount of the observed rates. In the case there are no valid transactions for a given mnemonic on the valuation day, the reported rate is the IRR base from a reference structure, plus a spread model based on historical spread for the same item or similar ones.
● Time deposits | Present Value of Cash Flows Model | IRRs are provided by RiskAmerica, according to the following criterion: If, at the valuation day, there are one or more valid transactions at the Santiago Stock Exchange for a given mnemonic, the reported rate is the weighted average amount of the observed rates. In the case there are no valid transactions for a given mnemonic on the valuation day, the reported rate is the IRR base from a reference structure, plus a spread model based on issuer curves.
● Constant Maturity Swaps (CMS), FX and Inflation Forward (Fwd) , Cross Currency Swaps (CCS), Interest Rate Swap (IRS) | Present Value of Cash Flows Model | IRRs are provided by ICAP, GFI, Tradition, and Bloomberg according to this criterion: With published market prices, a valuation curve is created by the bootstrapping method and is then used to value different derivative instruments.
● FX Options | Black-Scholes | Formula adjusted by the volatility smile (implicit volatility). Prices (volatility) are provided by BGC Partners, according to this criterion: With published market prices, a volatility surface is created by interpolation and then these volatilities are used to value options.

In limited occasions significant inputs not observable in market data are used (Level 3). To carry out this estimate, several techniques are used, including extrapolation of observable market data or a mix of observable data.

The following financial instruments are classified under Level 3:

Type of financial instrument | Model used in valuation | Description
● Caps/ Floors/ Swaptions | Black Normal Model for Cap/Floors and Swaptions | There is no observable input of implicit volatility.
| Black – Scholes | There is no observable input of implicit volatility.
| Hull-White | Hybrid HW model for rates and Brownian motion for FX, There is no observable input of implicit volatility.
| Implicit Forward Rate Agreement (FRA) | Start Fwd unsupported by MUREX (platform) due to the UF forward estimate.
● Cross currency swap, Interest rate swap, Call money swap in Tasa Activa Bancaria (Active Bank Rate) TAB | Present Value of Cash Flows Model | Validation obtained by using the interest curve and interpolating at flow maturities, but TAB is not a directly observable variable and is not correlated to any market input.
| Present Value of Cash Flows Model | Valued by using similar instrument prices plus a charge-off rate by liquidity.
● Reconigtion bonds | Spread over risk free | Valuation by stochastic dynamic model to obtain discount rate.

Banco Santander has embarked on an internal process of developing its acquisition network, thereby abandoning investments in the companies that provided such services. Therefore, senior management has engaged in a buyer search plan for such shareholdings.

As required by IFRS 5, the Bank has presented the non-current asset classified as held for sale by isolating it from the rest of the investments in associates, in the same way it has presented the income associated with said investments as non-current results in a comparative way.

The following investments in associates were classified to non-current assets held for sale:
