d) Others On January 12, 2019, was published in the "Diario Oficial" Law 21,130 that modernizes Banking Legislation. This law introduces modifications, among other regulatory bodies, to the General Bank Law (LGB), to Law 21,000 creating the Financial Market Commission ("FMC" which replaces former SBIF), to the Organic Law of the State Bank of Chile and to the Tax Code. The main changes introduced by this law are the integration of the SBIF within the Financial Market Commission (FMC), new capital requirements in accordance with the international standards established by Basel III, in addition to new limits for credit operations. The new law adopts the highest international standards in banking regulation and supervision, strengthening international competitiveness and contributing to the financial stability of Chile. The FMC has issued three standards drafts for comment of a total of 16 that are required for the full fulfillment of the new capital requirements: - Identification of banks with systemic importance. - New standardized methodology to determine risk-weighted assets operational risk. - Methodology for computing regulatory capital. On December 20, 2019, the FMC issued Circular N°2,243 Compendium of Accounting Standards for banks, which incorporates the modifications introduced by the IASB through new standards such as IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (excluding impairment chapter), IFRS 16 Leases, IFRS15 Revenue from Contracts with customers and disclosures required by IFRS 7 Financial Instruments:Disclosures. The modifications pursue greater convergence to IFRS, improving disclosures and contributing to the transparency of the Chilean banking system. The new compendium (CNCB) is applicable from January 1, 2021, and for the purposes of comparative financial statement as of March 2021, 2020 will be a transition year. Sale of associates The Bank completed the sale of a significant part of its participation in Sociedad Nexus S.A., which reached 12.9% investment that was registered as an asset held for sale (see Note No. 39). Social unrest During October 2019, growing public concern over perceived social inequality led to a rise in social unrest. As a results, certain Bank's branches suffered different level of damages. As of December 31, 2019, the Bank recorded an impairment for an amount of MCh$2,726 (see Note 33), and expenses for MCh$1,823 as other operational expenses (see Note 34). Most of this damage was insured.
