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 December 31 2020, 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

The present Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Compendium of Accounting Standards (CNC) and instructions issued by the Commission for the Financial Market (CMF) (former Superintendency of Banks and Financial Institutions “SBIF”), an entity auditor that according to Law No. 21,000 that “Creates the Commission for the Financial Market”, provides in paragraph 6 of its article 5 that the Commission for the Financial Market (CMF) may “set the rules for the preparation and presentation of the reports, balance sheets, statements of situation and other financial statements of the audited entities and determine the principles according to which they must keep their accounting and in all that that is not treated by it if it does not contradict its instructions, must adhere to the generally accepted accounting criteria, which correspond to the technical standards issued by the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G., coinciding with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS or IFRS, for its acronym in English) agreed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). In case of discrepancies between the accounting principles and accounting criteria issued by the CMF (ex SBIF) in its Compendium of Accounting Standards and instructions, these will prevail last.

For purposes of these consolidated financial statements the Bank uses certain terms and conventions. References to “USD”, “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 Financial Statements contain additional information to support the figures submitted in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Income, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Consolidated 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 Financial Statements

The Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2021 and 2020 and December 2020, 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.

AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 and 2020 and DECEMBER 31, 2020

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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.

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 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 Statement of Changes in Equity. Their share in the income for the year is presented as “Attributable to non-controlling interest” in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

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

| i. | Entities controlled by the Bank through participation in equity

ii. | Entities controlled by the Bank through other considerations

The following companies have been consolidated 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).

| - | Multiplica SpA (Development card incentive programs).

| 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.

The following companies are considered “Associates” in which the Bank accounts for its participation using the equity method:

|  |  | Percentage of ownership share
|  | Place of Incorporation and operation | As of September 30, |  | As of December 31, |  | As of September 30,
|  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2020

Centro de Compensación Automatizado S.A. | Electronic fund transfer and compensation services | Santiago, Chile | 33.33 |  | 33.33 |  | 33.33
Sociedad Interbancaria de Depósito de Valores S.A. | Repository of publically offered securities | Santiago, Chile | 29.29 |  | 29.29 |  | 29.29
Cámara Compensación de Alto Valor S.A. | Payments clearing | Santiago, Chile | 15.00 |  | 15.00 |  | 15.00

Servicios de Infraestructura de Mercado OTC S.A. | Administration of the infrastructure for the financial market of derivative instruments | Santiago, Chile | 12.48 |  | 12.48 |  | 12.48

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 Statement of Income, and separately from shareholders’ equity in the Consolidated 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 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 (discounted spot) on the month end date. The rate used was Ch$811.46 per USD1 for September 2021 (Ch$784.33 per USD1 for September 2021 and Ch$712.47 for December 2020).

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, 2021 and 2020 and December 31, 2020, 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.

Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 and 2020 and DECEMBER 31, 2020

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 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.

| ● | 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, 2021 and, 2020 and December 21, 2020, the bank does not possess any financial liabilities FVTPL.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities (including interbank borrowings, issued debt instruments and other payables) are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized 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 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.

| vi. | Modified of financial assets

When the contractual modification of the cash flows has its origin in financial difficulties of the counterparty and said flows have been adapted so that it can comply with its payment obligations, this modification will not be considered as substantial and therefore will not imply the cancellation of the current financial instrument.

On the other hand, when the modification of the contractual flows originate for eminently commercial reasons, said modification will be considered as substantial and therefore will imply the cancellation of the original financial instrument and the recognition of a new one. Any difference that is generated between the book value of the derecognized financial instrument and the fair value of the new financial instrument will be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

| 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.

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).

Although the use of average prices is allowed as a practical resource to determine the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Bank makes a adjustment (FVA or fair value adjustment) when there is a gap between the purchase and sale price (close out cost).

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 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 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. In the case of derivative instruments contracted with Central Clearing Houses, in which the variation margin is contractually defined as a firm and irrevocable payment, this payment is considered as part of the fair value of the derivative.

“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”.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 and macrohedge

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”).

| 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 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 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 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 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 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 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, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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 Statement of Financial Position and any rights or obligations retained or created in the transfer are simultaneously recorded.

| 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 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 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 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 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 Financial Statement Financial Position when the obligations specified in the contract are discharged or cancelled or the contract has matured.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

| 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 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 (Note 24). 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 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.

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.

| - | 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.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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

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 Statement of the Consolidated Income throughout the life of the loan.

| j) | Impairment of 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 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

At inception of a contract the Bank assesses whether a contract contains a lease. A contract contains a lease if the contracts conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Bank assesses whether:

| ● | the contract involves the use of an identified asset – this may be specified explicitly or implicitly and should be physically distinct. If the supplier has a substantive substitution right, then the asset is not identified;

| ● | the Bank has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use, and

| ● | the Bank has the right to direct the use of the asset – this is decision-making purpose for which asset is use.

a. As a Lessee

The Bank recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date in accordance within IFRS 16 “Leases”. The main contracts that the Bank has are offices and branches related, which are necessary to carry out its activities.

At the beginning, the right-of-use asset is equal to the lease liability and is calculated as the present value of the lease payments discounted using the incremental interest rate at the commencement date, considering the lease term of each contract. The average incremental interest rate is 1.45%. After initial recognition, the right-of-use is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method in accordance with the lease term of the contract, and the lease liability is amortised in accordance with the effective interest method. Financial interest is accounted as interest expense, and depreciation as depreciation expense in each period.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

The term of the lease comprises non-cancelable periods established within each contract, while for lease contracts with an indefinite useful life, the Bank has determined to assign a useful life equal to the longer non-cancelable period of its lease agreements. The Bank has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Bank recognises lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any modification in the terms or lease should be treated as a new measurement.

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

b. As a lessor

When the Bank acts as a lessor, it determines at the beginning if it corresponds to a financial or operating lease. To do this, it evaluates whether it has substantially transferred all the risks and benefits of the asset. In the affirmative case, it corresponds to a financial lease, otherwise it is a financial lease. The Bank recognizes the lease income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

c. Third party financing

The Bank recognises the loans with third parties within “Loans and accounts receivable from customers” in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, 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, when at the inception of the lease it is reasonably certain that the lessee will exercise the option.

The finance income and expenses arising from these contracts are recorded under “Interest income” and “Interest expense” respectively, in Consolidated Statements of Income to achieve constant return rate over the lease term.

| 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 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 provisions for probable losses in credits and accounts receivable from customers in accordance with the instructions issued by the CMF (ex SBIF) and the credit risk rating and evaluation model approved by the Board of Directors, including the modifications introduced by Circulars N° 3,573 and N° 3,584 and their subsequent amendments which establish the standard method for residential mortgage loans and Circulars N° 3,638 and N° 3,647 related to commercial loans for group portfolio, complement and specify instructions on provisions and credits that make up the impaired portfolio.

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.

For the company Santander Consumer Finance Limitada the determination of the provision for credit risk is made using internal models under IFRS 9 to determine the expected losses for this default. These internal models are reviewed monthly and the modifications to said models are approved by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis, after review and approval by the Company’s General Management. These models collectively evaluate the receivables, for which said loans are grouped based on similar credit risk characteristics, which indicate the debtor’s ability to pay on the entire debt, principal and interest, in accordance with the terms of the contract. In addition, this allows evaluating a large number of transactions with low individual amounts, regardless of whether they belong to individuals or small companies. Therefore, debtors and loans with similar characteristics are grouped together and each group has a risk level assigned to it. During the first half of 2020, Santander Consumer Finance Limitada carried out a calibration of its credit risk provision models, with the aim of improving the prediction parameters of customer behavior and maintaining the statistical monitoring standards, which resulted in a higher provision with an effect on results of Ch$ 1,900 million.

| 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.

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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 (%)
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 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.

AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 and 2020 and DECEMBER 31, 2020

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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 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).

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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

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≤40% | PNP(%) | 1,0916 | 21,3407 | 46,0536 | 75,1614 | 100
Severity (%) | 0,0225 | 0,0441 | 0,0482 | 0,0482 | 0,0537

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 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.

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 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 (%)
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

80% < PVB ≤ 90% | 23.20 | 75.10
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.

Probability Non-Performance (PNP) according enforceability, default and type of loan (%)

No | 50.30 | 45.80

| 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 (%)

90% < PTVG | 43.00 | 27,10
No guarantee | 56,90 | 35.90

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.

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.

| d. | Provisions related to financing with a FOGAPE Covid-19 guarantee

On July 17, 2020, the CMF requested to determine specific provisions of the credits guaranteed by the FOGAPE Covid-19 guarantee, for which the expected losses must be determined estimating the risk of each operation, without considering the substitution of credit quality of the guarantee, according to the corresponding individual or group analysis method, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter B-1 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards. This calculation must be carried out in an aggregate manner, grouping all those operations to which the same deductible percentage is applicable. Therefore, the total amount of the expected losses resulting from the aggregate calculation of each group of operations must be contrasted with the respective total deductible amount that corresponds to them and proceed as follows, when the expected losses of the operations of a group to which the same percentage of deductible corresponds, determined according to the procedure indicated are less than or equal to the aggregate amount of the deductible, the provisions will be determined without considering the coverage of FOGAPE Covid-19, that is, without substituting the credit quality of the direct debtor for the guarantee and when they are greater than the aggregate amount of the deductible, the provisions will be determined using the substitution method provided in section 4.1 letter a) of Chapter B-1 of the Compendium of Accounting Standards and will be recognized in separate accounts at that of commercial, consumption and housing provisions. As of September 30, 2021, the Bank has established provisions for this concept of Ch$ 39,506 million (Note 9 and 28).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

| 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°09 B-1 Chapter from the CMF Compendium of Accounting Standards, these provisions will be recorded in liabilities, similar to provisions for contingent loans, see note 3 and 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 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 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 provisons in the Consolidated 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 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

| iii. | 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.

AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 and 2020 and DECEMBER 31, 2020

NOTE 01

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

The Consolidated 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 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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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)

| t) | Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations

As of September 30, 2021 and 2020 and December 31, 2020, the Bank classified the investments in associates held up to now in Redbanc and Transbank as held for sale, in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 5 “Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations”, because expects to recover the book value primarily through the sale of these investments. In order to carry out this reclassification, the Bank has ensured that it complies 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, 2021, the Bank has classified as “non-current assets held for sale” the investments in Transbank and Redbanc, while Nexus was sold in January 2020. For more information see Note 36.

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 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 2020 the average selling cost has been estimated at 3.2% of the appraisal value (3.1% for December 31, 2019). Additionally, every 18 months a review of the appraisals (independent) is carried out to adjust the fair value of the assets.

In general, it is estimated that these assets will be disposed of within a period of one year from their award date. In compliance with the provisions of article 84 of the General Banking Law, those goods that are not sold within said period are charged off in a single installment. On March 25, 2020, the CMF the CMF issued circular No. 2247 where it has resolved to grant an additional period of eighteen months for the sale of all assets that financial institutions have received in payment or are awarded between 1 March 2019 until September 30, 2020, also allowing the charge-off of said assets to be carried out in installments, proportional to the number of months between the date of receipt and the date set by the bank for disposal.

The The amendments are intended to help companies provide investors with useful information on the effects of the reform on the states financial institutions of those companies. The amendments complement those issued in 2019 and focus on the effects on the financial statements when a company replaces the rate of reference interest for an alternative reference rate as a result of the reform.

The modifications of this final phase refer to:

| ● | changes in contractual cash flows: a company will not have to derecognise or adjust the carrying amount of instruments due to the changes required by the reform, but will update the effective interest rate to reflect the change to the reference rate alternative;

| ● | hedge accounting - a business will not have to discontinue its hedge accounting just because it makes the changes required by the reform, if the hedge meets the other hedge accounting criteria; Y

| ● | disclosures: a company will be required to disclose information about new risks arising from the reform and how it manages the transition

at alternative reference rates.

These amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021, and early adoption is permitted. The Bank has been working since 2019 on the transition of different risk-free reference rates (hereinafter also “RFR”), including the LIBOR rate. In this context, the Bank’s work plan includes the identification of the impacted customers, the impacted areas, the various risks to which the Bank is exposed, the determination of work teams regarding each risk, the involvement of the high administration in a robust project governance plan and an action plan for each of the impacted identified risk/areas, which we allowed to face this challenge successfully, see note N° 35.

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.

Cash flow microhedges

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, 2021 and 2020 and December 31, 2020, the periods when the cash flows will be generated are the following:

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

As of September 30, 2021 and 2020 and December 31, 2020, 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 December 31, 2020 and 2019, and is as follows:

|  | As of September 30,
Hedged item |  | 2021 |  | 2020
|  | MCh$ |  | MCh$
Interbank loans |  | 1,317 |  | (2,036)

Chilean sovereign bond |  | - |  | -
Net flows |  | (314,336) |  | (34,902)

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.

During the month of May 2020, LATAM Airlines Group S.A initiated a reorganization process in the Court of the Southern District of New York under Chapter 11, a process whose main objective is for the airline to continue operating. In this context, LATAM has publicly indicated that its intention is to honor all current and future tickets, as well as travel vouchers, miles and frequent flyer programs. The Court of the Southern District of New York, agreed in the first hearing to honor and maintain the frequent flyer program, explicitly “in the ordinary course of business” (that is, without changes), since it considered it as an important asset for the company. Along the same lines, LATAM has formalized two tranches of the DIP (Debtor in Possession) financing proposal for a total of USD 2,200 million, managing to capture all the resources that LATAM has indicated as necessary to operate during the crisis. In October 2020, it made the first disbursement of USD 1,150 million of the DIP financing, which represents 50% of the amount available, which will allow it to reestablish its operation and work on the reorganization plan. On January 27, 2021, Latam Airlines’ request was approved to postpone, until September 30, 2021, the deadline to present its reorganization plan. Given the announcement made by the Chilean government regarding travel restrictions to and from abroad, LATAM Airlines Group reported that it has sufficient liquidity to face this period.

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%

On January 12, 2019, Law 21,130 that Modernizes Banking Legislation was published in the Official Gazette. This law introduces modifications, among other regulatory bodies, to the General Law of Banks (LGB), to Law 21,000 that created the Commission for the Financial Market, to the Organic Law of the State Bank of Chile and to the Tax Code. On March 30, 2020, the CMF informs on the flexibility to implement Basel III. In coordination with the Central Bank of Chile, they resolved to postpone the implementation of the capital requirements required by the standard by one year and to maintain the current general regulatory framework for banking capital requirements until December 2021. The new General Banking Law (updated through Law 21,130) defines general guidelines to establish a capital adequacy system in line with the international standards of Basel III, giving the CMF the power to dictate the framework of capital in a prudent manner. In particular, the CMF is empowered, with the prior favorable agreement of the Board of the Central Bank of Chile (BCCh), to define, through regulations, the new methodologies for calculating assets weighted by credit, market and operational risk; the conditions of issuance of hybrid instruments AT1, and the determination and capital charges for banks of local systemic importance. It also introduced conservation and counter-cyclical buffers and expanded the CMF’s powers to make prudential discounts to regulatory capital and require additional measures, including higher capital, from banks that present deficiencies in the supervisory evaluation process (pillar 2). The implementation of Basel III makes it possible to focus risk management towards a more comprehensive vision of them, with a focus on capital adequacy.

In accordance with the foregoing, last December the CMF completed the process of issuing the necessary regulations for the implementation in Chile of the capital framework of the Basel III standards. But in the current context of a coronavirus pandemic, the CMF, in coordination with the Central Bank of Chile and in line with the measures adopted by regulators at the international level, decided to postpone the implementation of the APR calculation for one year and maintain it temporarily the general regulatory framework in force until November 30, 2021.

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, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

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.

NOTE 34

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

| - | Mutual Funds

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.
• Guarantee deposits, guarantee received (Treshold) | Present Value of Cash Flows Model | Collateral associated to derivatives financial contracts: Swap Camara Promedio(CMS), FX and inflation Forward, Cross Currency Swap (CCS), Interest Rate Swap (IRS) y FX 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 | Valuation using prices of instruments with similar characteristics plus a penalty rate for liquidity.
| Present Value of Cash Flows Model | With the published market prices, the valuation curve is constructed using the bootstrapping method and then this curve is used to value the different derivatives.
• Reconigtion bonds | Spread over risk free | Valuation by stochastic dynamic model to obtain discount rate.

The Bank does not believe that any change in unobservable inputs with respect to level 3 instruments would result in a significantly different fair value measurement.

The following table presents the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Introduction and general description

The Bank, due to its activities with financial instruments is exposed to several types of risk. The main risks related to financial instruments that apply to the Bank are as follow:

Market risk: rises from holding financial instruments whose value may be affected by fluctuations in market conditions, generally including the following types of risk:

| a. | Foreign excharge risk: this arises as a consequence of fluctuations in market interest rates,

| b. | Interest rate risk: this arises as a consequence of fluctuations in market interest rates,

| c. | Price risk: this arises as a consequence of changes in market prices, either due to factor specific to the instrument itself or due to factors that affect all the instruments negotiated in the market,

| d. | Inflation risk: this arises as a consequence of changes in Chile’s inflation rate, whose effect would be mainly applicable to financial instruments denominated in UF.

Credit risk: this is the risk that one of the parties to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations for reason of insolvency or inability of the individuals or legal entitles in question to continue as a going concern, causing a financial loss to the other party.

Liquidity risk: is the possibility that an entity may be unable to meet its payment commitments, or that in order to meet them, it may have to raise funds with onerous terms or risk damage to its image and reputation.

Operating risk: this is a risk arising from human errors, system error, fraud or external events which may damage the Bank’s reputation, may have legal or regulatory implication, or cause financial losses.

Capital risk: is the risk that the Bank has insufficient quantity and / or quality of capital to meet the minimum requirements to operate as a bank, respond to market expectations regarding its creditworthiness and support the growth of its business and any strategies that may emerge in accordance with your strategic plan.

This note includes information on the Bank’s exposure to these risk an on its objetives, policies, and processes involved in their measurement and management.

Risk management structure

The Board of Directors is responsible for the establishment and monitoring of the Bank’s risk management structure and, to this end, has a corporate governance system in line with international recommendations and trends, adapted to the Chilean regulatory reality and adapted to best practices, advanced markets in which it operates, To better exercise this function, the Board of Directors has established the Comprehensive Risk Committee (“CIR”), whose main mission is to assist in the development of its functions related to the Bank’s control and risk management, Complementing the CIR in risk management, the Board also has 3 key committees: Assets and Liabilities Committee (CAPA), Markets Committee (“CDM”) and the Directors and Audit Committee (“CDA”), Each of the committees is composed of directors and executive members of the Bank’s management.

The CIR is responsible for developing Bank risk management policies in accordance with the guidelines of the Board of Directors, the Global Risk Department of Santander Spain and the regulatory requirements issued by the CMF, These policies have been created mainly to identify and analyze the risk faced by the Bank, establish risk limits and appropriate controls, and monitor risks and compliance with limits, The Bank’s risk management policies and systems are regularly reviewed to reflect changes in market conditions, and the products or services offered, The Bank, through the training and management of standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment, in which all its employees understand their duties and obligations.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Market risk

Market risk arises as a consequence of the activity maintained in the markets, through financial instruments whose value may be affected by variations in market conditions, reflected in changes in the different assets and financial risk factors, The risk can be mitigated through hedges through other products (assets / liabilities or derivatives), or by undoing the operation / open position, The objective of market risk management is the management and control of exposure to market risk within acceptable parameters.

There are four major risk factors that affect market prices: interest rates, exchange rates, price, and inflation, Additionally, and for certain positions, it is also necessary to consider other risks, such as spread risk, base risk, commodity risk, volatility or correlation risk.

Market risk management

The internal management of the Bank to measure market risk is mainly based on the procedures and standards of Santander Spain, which are based on analyzing management in three main components:

- | trading portfolio;

- | local financial management portfolio;

- | portfolio of foreign financial management,

The trading portfolio consists mainly of those investments valued at their fair value, free of any restriction for immediate sale and that are often bought and sold by the Bank with the intention of selling them in the short term in order to benefit from the short-term price variations, The financial management portfolios include all financial investments not considered in the trading portfolio.

The general responsibility for market risk lies with the ALCO, The Bank’s risk / finance department is responsible for the preparation of detailed management policies and their application in the Bank’s operations in accordance with the guidelines established by the ALCO and by the Global Risk Department of Banco Santander Spain.

The functions of the department in relation to the trading portfolio entail the following:

i, | apply “Value at Risk” (VaR) techniques to measure interest rate risk.

ii, | adjust the trading portfolios to the market and measure the profit and daily loss of commercial activities.

iii, | compare the real VAR with the established limits.

iv, | establish procedures to control losses in excess of predetermined limits and

v, | Provide information on the negotiation activities for the ALCO, other members of the Bank’s Management, and the Global Risk Department of Santander – Spain.

The functions of the department in relation to the financial management portfolios entail the following:

i, | apply sensitivity simulations (as explained below) to measure the interest rate risk of activities in local currency and the potential loss foreseen by these simulations and

ii, | provides the respective daily reports to the ALCO, other members of the Bank’s Management, and the Global Risk Department of Santander – Spain.

Market risk - Negotiation portfolio

The Bank applies VaR methodologies to measure the market risk of its trading portfolio, The Bank has a consolidated commercial position composed of fixed income investments, foreign currency trading and a minimum equity investment position, The composition of this portfolio consists essentially of bonds of the Central Bank of Chile, mortgage bonds and locally issued low-risk corporate bonds, At the end of the year, the trading portfolio did not present investments in stock portfolios.

NOTE 35

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

For the Bank, the VaR estimate is made under the historical simulation methodology, which consists of observing the behavior of the losses and gains that would have occurred with the current portfolio if the market conditions of a certain historical period were in force, , from that information, infer the maximum loss with a certain level of confidence, The methodology has the advantage of accurately reflecting the historical distribution of market variables and of not requiring any specific probability distribution assumption, All VaR measures are intended to determine the distribution function for the change in the value of a given portfolio, and once this distribution is known, to calculate the percentile related to the level of confidence needed, which will be equal to the value at risk in virtue of those parameters, As calculated by the Bank, the VaR is an estimate of the maximum expected loss of the market value of a given portfolio within a 1-day horizon at a confidence level of 99,00%, It is the maximum loss of a day in which the Bank could expect to suffer in a certain portfolio with a 99,00% confidence level, In other words, it is the loss that the Bank would expect to exceed only 1,0% of the time, The VaR provides a single estimate of market risk that is not comparable from one market risk to another, The returns are calculated using a 2 year time window or at least 520 data obtained from the reference date of VaR calculation backwards in time.

The Bank does not calculate three separate VaRs, A single VaR is calculated for the entire trading portfolio, which, in addition, is segregated by type of risk, The VaR program performs a historical simulation and calculates a profit and loss statement (G & P) for 520 data points (days) for each risk factor (fixed income, currencies and variable income), The G & P of each risk factor is added and a consolidated VaR calculated with 520 data points or days, At the same time, the VaR is calculated for each risk factor based on the individual G & P calculated for each factor, Moreover, a weighted VaR is calculated in the manner described above but which gives a weight greater than the 30 most recent data points, The largest of the two VaRs is reported.

The Bank uses the VaR estimates to deliver a warning in case the statistically estimated losses in the trading portfolio exceed the prudent levels and, therefore, certain predetermined limits exist.

Limitations of the VaR model

When applying this calculation methodology no assumption is made about the probability distribution of changes in risk factors, simply use the changes observed historically to generate scenarios for the risk factors in which each of the positions will be valued, in portfolio.

It is necessary to define a valuation function fj (xi) for each instrument j, preferably the same one that it uses to calculate the market value and results of the daily position, This valuation function will be applied in each scenario to generate simulated prices of all the instruments in each scenario.

In addition, the VaR methodology must be interpreted considering the following limitations:

- | Changes in market rates and prices may not be independent and identically distributed random variables, nor may they have a normal distribution, In particular, the assumption of normal distribution may underestimate the probability of extreme market movements;

- | The historical data used by the Bank may not provide the best estimate of the joint distribution of changes in risk factors in the future, and any modification of the data may be inadequate, In particular, the use of historical data may fail to capture the risk of possible extreme and adverse market fluctuations regardless of the period of time used;

- | a 1-day time horizon may not fully capture those market risk positions that can not be liquidated or hedged in one day, It would not be possible to liquidate or cover all positions in a day;

- | VaR is calculated at the close of business, however trading positions may change substantially during the trading day;

- | The use of 99% confidence level does not take into account, nor does it make any statement about, the losses that may occur beyond this level of trust, and

- | The model as such VaR does not capture all the complex effects of the risk factors on the value of the positions or portfolios, and therefore, could underestimate the potential loss.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

The Bank did not exceeded for the 2021 and 2020 periods the VaR limits in relation to the 3 components that make up the trading portfolio: fixed income investments, variable income investments and investments in foreign currency.

The Bank performs daily back-testing and, in general, it is discovered that trading losses exceed the estimated VaR almost one in every 100 trading days, At the same time, a limit was established for the maximum VaR that is willing to accept on the trading portfolio, In both 2021 and 2020, the Bank has remained within the maximum limit established for the VaR, even in those instances in which the real VaR exceeded the estimate.

The high, low and average levels for each component and for each year were the following:

VAR | 2021 MMUSD |  | 2020 MMUSD

High | 3.43 |  | 5.10

Market risk – local and foreign financial management

The Bank’s financial management portfolio includes most of the Bank’s assets and non-trading liabilities, including the loan / loan portfolio, For these portfolios, investment and financing decisions are heavily influenced by the Bank’s commercial strategies.

The Bank uses a sensitivity analysis to measure the market risk of local and foreign currency (not included in the trading portfolio), The Bank performs a scenario simulation which will be calculated as the difference between the present value of the flows in the chosen scenario (curve with parallel movement of 100 bp in all its tranches) and its value in the base scenario (current market) , All positions in local currency indexed to inflation (UF) are adjusted by a sensitivity factor of 0,57, which represents a change in the rate curve at 57 basis points in real rates and 100 basis points in nominal rates, The same scenario is carried out for net foreign currency positions and interest rates in US dollars, The Bank has also established limits regarding the maximum loss that these types of movements in interest rates may have on capital and net financial income budgeted for the year.

To determine the consolidated limit, the foreign currency limit is added to the local currency limit for both the net financial loss limit and the capital and reserve loss limit, using the following formula:

Bound limit = square root of a2 + b2 + 2ab

a: limit in national currency.

b: limit in foreign currency.

Since it is assumed that the correlation is 0. 2ab = 0.

Limitation of the sensitivity models

The most important assumption is the use of a change of 100 basis points in the yield curve (57 basis points for real rates), The Bank uses a change of 100 basis points given that sudden changes of this magnitude are considered realistic, The Global Risk Department of Santander Spain has also established comparable limits by country, in order to be able to compare, monitor and consolidate the market risk by country in a realistic and orderly manner.

In addition, the methodology of sensitivity simulations should be interpreted considering the following limitations:

- | The simulation of scenarios assumes that the volumes remain in the Bank’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and that they are always renewed at maturity, omitting the fact that certain considerations of credit risk and prepayments may affect the maturity of certain positions.

- | This model assumes an equal change in the entire performance curve of everything and does not take into account the different movements for different maturities.

- | The model does not take into account the sensitivity of volumes resulting from changes in interest rates.

- | The limits to the losses of budgeted financial income are calculated on the basis of expected financial income for the year that can not be obtained, which means that the actual percentage of financial income at risk could be greater than expected.

IBOR reform

In December 2020, the ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (IBA) launched a consultation on its intention to stop publishing LIBOR rates in currencies other than the dollar until December 31, 2021 and all other parameters of LIBOR in USD, after its publication on September 30, 2023.

The Bank has been working since 2019 on the transition of different risk-free reference rates (hereinafter also “RFR”), including the LIBOR rate. In this context, the Bank’s work plan includes the identification of the impacted customers, the impacted areas, the various risks to which the Bank is exposed, the determination of work teams regarding each risk, the involvement of the high administration in a robust project governance plan and an action plan for each of the impacted / identified risk areas, which will allow us to face the challenges imposed by the changes in the reference rates.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

To fulfill its functions, the CIR works directly with the Bank’s risk and control departments, whose joint objectives include:

- | evaluate those risks that, due to their size, could compromise the solvency of the Bank, or that present potentially significant operational or reputation risks;

- | ensure that the Bank is provided with the means, systems, structures and resources in accordance with the best practices that allow for the implementation of the strategy in risk management;

- | ensure the integration, control and management of all Bank risks;

- | execute the application throughout the Bank and its businesses of homogeneous risk principles, policies and metrics;

- | develop and implement a risk management model in the Bank, so that the risk exposure is properly integrated in the different decision-making processes;

- | identify risk concentrations and mitigation alternatives, monitor the macroeconomic and competitive environment, quantify sensitivities and the foreseeable impact of different scenarios on the positioning of risks; Y

- | manage the structural liquidity risks, interest rates and exchange rates, as well as the Bank’s own resources base.

To comply with the aforementioned objectives, the Bank (Administration and ALCO) carries out several activities related to risk management, which include: calculating the risk exposures of the different portfolios and / or investments, considering mitigating factors (guarantees, netting, collaterals, etc.); calculate the probabilities of expected loss of each portfolio and / or investments; assign the loss factors to the new operations (rating and scoring); measure the risk values of the portfolios and / or investments according to different scenarios through historical simulations; establish limits to potential losses based on the different risks incurred; determine the possible impacts of structural risks in the Consolidated Statements of Results of the Bank; set the limits and alerts that guarantee the Bank’s liquidity; and identify and quantify operational risks by business lines and thus facilitate their mitigation through corrective actions.

The CDA is primarily responsible for monitoring compliance with the Bank’s risk management policies and procedures, and for reviewing the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks the Bank faces.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one of the parties to the financial instrument contract fails to comply with its contractual obligations due to insolvency or disability of natural or legal persons and causes a financial loss in the other party, For purposes of credit risk management, the Bank consolidates all the elements and components of credit risk exposure (eg risk of individual default by creditor, innate risk of a line of business or sector, and / or geographical risk).

Mitigation of credit risk for loans and accounts receivable

The Board of Directors has delegated responsibility for credit risk management to the Comprehensive Risk Committee (CIR) and the Bank’s risk departments whose roles are summarized as follows:

- | Formulation of credit policies, in consultation with the business units, covering the requirements of guarantee, credit evaluation, risk rating and presentation of reports, documents and legal procedures in compliance with the regulatory, legal and internal requirements of the Bank.

- | Establish the structure of the authorization for the approval and renewal of credit applications, The Bank structures levels of credit risk by placing limits on the concentration of that risk in terms of individual debtors, groups of debtors, segments of industries and countries, The authorization limits are assigned to the respective officers of the business unit (commercial, consumption, PYMEs) to be monitored permanently by the Administration, In addition, these limits are reviewed periodically, The risk assessment teams at branch level interact regularly with clients, however for large operations, the risk teams of the parent company and even the CIR, work directly with clients in the evaluation of credit risks and preparation of credit risk, credit applications, Inclusively, Banco Santander Spain participates in the process of approving the most significant loans, for example to clients or economic groups with debt amounts greater than USD 40 million.

- | Limit concentrations of exposure to customers, counterparts, in geographic areas, industries (for accounts receivable or credits), and by issuer, credit rating and liquidity (for investments).

- | Develop and maintain the Bank’s risk classification in order to classify the risks according to the degree of exposure to financial loss faced by the respective financial instruments and with the purpose of focusing the management or risk management specifically on the associated risks.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

- | Review and evaluate credit risk The risk divisions of the Administration are largely independent of the commercial division of the bank and evaluate all credit risks in excess of the designated limits, prior to the approval of credits to customers or prior to the acquisition of specific investments, Credit renewals and revisions are subject to similar processes.

In the preparation of a credit request for a corporate client, the Bank verifies several parameters such as the debt service capacity (including, generally, projected cash flows), the client’s financial history and / or projections for the economic sector in which it operates, The risk division is closely involved in this process, All requests contain an analysis of the client’s strengths and weaknesses, a rating and a recommendation, The credit limits are not determined based on the outstanding balances of the clients, but on the direct and indirect credit risk of the financial group, For example, a limited company would be evaluated together with its subsidiaries and affiliates.

Consumer loans are evaluated and approved by their respective risk divisions (individuals, PYMEs) and the evaluation process is based on an evaluation system known as Garra (Banco Santander) and Syseva of Santander Banefe, both processes are decentralized, automated and they are based on a scoring system that includes the credit risk policies implemented by the Bank’s Board of Directors, The credit application process is based on the collection of information to determine the client’s financial situation and ability to pay, The parameters that are used to assess the credit risk of the applicant include several variables such as: income levels, duration of current employment, indebtedness, reports of credit agencies.

Mitigation of credit risk of other financial assets (investments, derivatives, commitments)

As part of the process of acquiring financial investments and financial instruments, the Bank considers the probability of uncollectibility of issuers or counterparties using internal and external evaluations such as independent risk evaluators of the Bank, In addition, the Bank is governed by a strict and conservative policy which ensures that the issuers of its investments and counterparties in transactions of derivative instruments are of the highest reputation.

In addition, the Bank operates with various instruments that, although they involve exposure to credit risk, are not reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, such as: guarantees and bonds, documentary letters of credit, guarantee slips and commitments to grant loans.

The guarantees and bonds represent an irrevocable payment obligation, In the event that a guaranteed client does not fulfill its obligations with third parties who are liable to the Bank, the latter will make the corresponding payments, so that these transactions represent the same exposure to credit risk as a common loan.

Documentary letters of credit are commitments documented by the Bank on behalf of the client that are guaranteed by the merchandise shipped to which they are related and, therefore, have a lower risk than direct indebtedness, Guarantee slips correspond to contingent commitments that are made effective only if the client does not comply with the performance of works agreed with a third party, guaranteed by them.

When it comes to commitments to grant credit, the Bank is potentially exposed to losses in an amount equivalent to the unused total of the commitment, However, the probable amount of loss is less than the unused total of the commitment, The Bank monitors the maturity of credit lines because generally long-term commitments have a higher credit risk than short-term commitments.

Maximun credit risk exposure

For financial assets recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, exposure to credit risk is equal to their book value, For financial guarantees granted, the maximum exposure to credit risk is the maximum amount that the Bank would have to pay if the guarantee were executed.

Exposure to credit risk in derivative contracts with abroad

As of September 30, 2021, the Bank’s foreign exposure, including the counterparty risk in the derivative portfolio, was USD 4,039.29 million or 2.46% of the assets, In the table below, the exposure to derivative instruments is calculated using the equivalent credit risk, which is equal to the net value of the replacement plus the maximum potential value, considering the collateral in cash, which mitigates the exposure.

Below, additional details are included regarding our exposure to those countries that have a rating of 1 and that correspond to the largest exposures, The following is the exposure as of September 30, 2021, considering the fair value of the derivative instruments.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Security interests and credit improvements

The maximum exposure to credit risk, in some cases, is reduced by guarantees, credit enhancements and other actions that mitigate the Bank’s exposure, Based on this, the constitution of guarantees is a necessary but not sufficient instrument in the granting of a loan; therefore, the acceptance of risk by the Bank requires the verification of other variables or parameters such as the ability to pay or generate resources to mitigate the risk incurred.

The procedures for the management and valuation of guarantees are included in the internal risk management policy, These policies establish the basic principles for the management of credit risk, which includes the management of guarantees received in transactions with customers, In this sense, the risk management model includes assessing the existence of appropriate and sufficient guarantees that allow the recovery of the loan to be carried out when the debtor’s circumstances do not allow it to meet its obligations.

The procedures used for the valuation of the guarantees are in accordance with the best practices of the market, which involve the use of valuations in real estate guarantees, market price in stock values, value of the shares in an investment fund, etc, All the collateral received must be properly instrumented and registered in the corresponding registry, as well as having the approval of the Bank’s legal divisions.

The Bank also has rating tools that allow ordering the credit quality of operations or clients, In order to study how this probability varies, the Bank has historical databases that store the information generated internally, The qualification tools vary according to the segment of the analyzed client (commercial, consumption, SMEs, etc,).

The following is a breakdown of impaired and non-impaired financial assets that have collateral, collateral or credit enhancements associated with the Bank as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank has difficulties in complying with the obligations associated with its financial obligations.

Liquidity risk management

The Bank is exposed daily to requirements of cash funds from several banking transactions such as current account drafts, payments of term deposits, guarantee payments, disbursements of derivative operations, etc, As is inherent in banking activity, the Bank does not hold funds in cash to cover the balance of those positions, since experience shows that only a minimum level of these funds will be withdrawn, which can be foreseen with a high degree of certainty.

The Bank’s approach to liquidity management is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it always has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations at maturity, under normal circumstances and stress conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking risk, of damage to the reputation of the Bank, The Board sets limits on a minimum portion of funds to be made available to meet such payments and on a minimum level of inter-bank operations and other lending facilities that should be available to cover drafts at unexpected levels of demand, which is reviewed periodically, On the other hand, the Bank must comply with regulatory limits dictated by the CMF for the mismatches of terms.

These limits affect the mismatches between future income and expenditure flows of the Bank considered individually and are the following:

i, | Mismatches of up to 30 days for all currencies, up to once the basic capital;

ii, | mismatches of up to 30 days for foreign currencies, up to once the basic capital; and

iii, | mismatches of up to 90 days for all currencies, twice the basic capital.

The treasury department receives information from all the business units on the liquidity profile of its financial assets and liabilities and details of other projected cash flows derived from future businesses, According to this information, treasury maintains a portfolio of liquid assets in the short term, composed largely of liquid investments, loans and advances to other banks, to ensure that the Bank maintains sufficient liquidity, The liquidity needs of the business units are met through short-term transfers from treasury to cover any short-term fluctuation and long-term financing to address all structural liquidity requirements.

The Bank monitors its liquidity position on a daily basis, determining the future flows of its expenses and revenues, In addition, stress tests are carried out at the end of each month, for which a variety of scenarios are used, covering both normal market conditions and fluctuation conditions, The liquidity policy and procedures are subject to review and approval by the Bank’s Board of Directors, Periodic reports are generated detailing the liquidity position of the Bank and its affiliates, including any exceptions and corrective measures adopted, which are regularly reviewed by the ALCO.

The Bank is based on client (retail) and institutional deposits, bonds with banks, debt instruments and time deposits as its main sources of financing, Although most of the obligations with banks, debt instruments and time deposits have maturities of more than one year, customer and retail deposits tend to have shorter maturities and a large proportion of them are payable within 90 days, days, The short-term nature of these deposits increases the liquidity risk of the Bank and therefore the Bank actively manages this risk by constantly monitoring market trends and price management.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Exposure to liquidity risk

One of the key measures used by the Bank to manage liquidity risk is the proportion of net liquid assets to customer deposits, For this purpose, the net liquid assets must include cash / cash, cash equivalents and debt investments for which there is an active and liquid market minus the deposits of the banks, fixed income securities issued, loans and other commitments maturing in next month, A similar measure, but not identical, is used as a calculation to measure the Bank’s compliance with the liquidity limit established by the CMF, where the Bank determines the mismatch between its rights and obligations according to maturity according to the estimated performance.

The proportions of the mismatches at 30 days in relation to capital and 90 days in relation to 2 times the capital are shown in the following table:

| As of September 30, 2021 |  | As of December 31, 2020

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Operating risk

Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect losses arising from a wide variety of causes related to the Bank’s processes, personnel, technology and infrastructure, and external factors that are not credit, market or liquidity, such as those related to legal or regulatory requirements, Operating risks arise from all Bank operations.

The objective of the Bank is the management of operational risk in order to mitigate economic losses and damages to the Bank’s reputation with a flexible structure of internal control.

The Bank’s Administration has the primary responsibility for the development and application of controls to deal with operational risks, This responsibility is supported by the overall development of the Bank’s standards for operational risk management in the following areas:

- | Requirements for the proper segregation of functions, including the independent authorization of operations

- | Requirements for reconciliation and supervision of transactions
- | Compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements

- | Documentation of controls and procedures

- | Requirements for the periodic evaluation of the applicable operational risks, and the adequacy of the controls and procedures to deal with the identified risks

- | Requirements for the disclosure of operating losses and the proposed corrective measures

- | Development of contingency plans

- | Training and professional development / training

- | Establishment of business ethics standards

- | Reduction or mitigation of risks, including contracting insurance policies if they are effective.

Compliance with Bank regulations is supported by a program of periodic reviews carried out by the Bank’s internal audit and whose examination results are presented internally to the management of the business unit examined and to the Directors and Audit Committee.

The Bank operates mainly in Chile, therefore most of its financial instruments are concentrated in that country. Refer to Note No. 09 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detail of the concentration by industry of the Bank’s credits and accounts receivable.

Capital risk

The Group defines capital risk as the risk that the Group or any of its companies may have an insufficient amount and/or quality of capital to: meet the minimum regulatory requirements in order to operate as a bank; respond to market expectations regarding its creditworthiness; and support its business growth and any strategic possibilities that might arise, in accordance with its strategic plan.

The objectives in this connection include most notably:

● | To meet the internal capital and capital adequacy targets.

● | To meet the regulatory requirements.

● | To align the Bank’s strategic plan with the capital expectations of external agents (rating agencies, shareholders and investors, customers, supervisors, etc.)

● | To support the growth of the businesses and any strategic opportunities that may arise.

The Group has a capital adequacy position that surpasses the levels required by regulations.

Capital management seeks to optimize the creation of value in the Bank and in its business segments. The Bank continually assesses its risk-return ratios through its basic capital, effective equity, economic capital, and return on equity. With regard to capital adequacy, the Banks carry out their internal process based on the CMF (ex SBIF) standards that are based on the Basel Capital Accord (Basel I) and as of December 1, 2020 the CMF will based on Basel III. Economic capital is the capital required to bear all the risk of commercial activity with a certain level of solvency.

Capital is managed according to the risk environment, the economic performance of Chile and the business cycle, Board may modify our current equity policies to address changes in the mentioned risk environment.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Minimum equity

Under the General Banking Law, a bank is required to have a minimum of UF 800,000 (approximately Ch$ 23,768 million or USD 32.4 million as of September 30, 2021) of paid-in capital and reserves, calculated in accordance with CMF.

Equity requirement

Chilean banks are required by the 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 (“basic capital”) of at least 3% of total assets, net of required loan loss allowances, Regulatory capital and basic capital are calculated based on the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the Compendium of Accounting Standards issued by the CMF, 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, 2021, the ratio of our regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets, net of loan loss allowance and deductions, was 14.67% and our core capital ratio was 5.81%.

Regulatory capital is defined as the aggregate of:

• | a bank’s paid-in capital and reserves, excluding capital attributable to subsidiaries and foreign branches or basic capital;

• | its subordinated bonds, valued at their placement price (but decreasing by 20% for each year during the period commencing six years prior to maturity), for an amount up to 50% of its basic capital; and

• | its voluntary allowances for loan losses for an amount of up to 1,25% of risk weighted-assets.

On August 21, 2020, circular No. 2265 was published indicating the new treatment, where the amounts of the credits that are guaranteed by the Chilean Treasury are incorporated into category 2 of the risk-weighted asset classification. , CORFO and FOGAPE, which consequently went from having a credit risk weight of 100% to 10%.

Since December 1, the regulatory capital definition has changed and is defined as follows:

• | Paid capital of the bank for ordinary shares subscribed and paid;

• | Premium paid for the instruments included in this capital component;

• | Reserves, both non-profit and non-profit, due to the depreciation of bonds without a fixed maturity term and due to the expiration of bonds without a fixed maturity term;

• | Items of “other accumulated comprehensive income”;

• | Retained earnings from previous years, profit (loss) for the year, net of provisions for minimum dividends, appreciation of bonds with no fixed maturity term and payment of interest and / or dividends of issued regulatory capital financial instruments;

| • | Non-controlling interest as indicated in the Compendium of Accounting Standards (CNC).

BASILEA III adoption in Chile

The new General Banking Law (updated through Law 21,130) defines general guidelines to establish a capital adequacy system in line with the international standards of Basel III, giving the CMF the power to dictate the framework of capital in a prudent manner. In particular, the CMF is empowered, with the prior favorable agreement of the Board of the Central Bank of Chile (BCCh), to define by regulation, the new methodologies for calculating assets weighted by credit, market and operational risk; the conditions of issuance of hybrid instruments AT1, and the determination and capital charges for banks of local systemic importance. It also introduced conservation and counter-cyclical buffers and expanded the CMF’s powers to make prudential discounts to regulatory capital and require additional measures, including higher capital, from banks that present deficiencies in the supervisory evaluation process (pillar 2). The implementation of Basel III makes it possible to focus risk management towards a more comprehensive vision of them, with a focus on capital adequacy.

In accordance with the foregoing, last December the CMF completed the process of issuing the necessary regulations for the implementation in Chile of the capital framework of the Basel III standards. But in the current context of a coronavirus pandemic, the CMF, in coordination with the Central Bank of Chile and in line with the measures adopted by regulators at the international level, decided to postpone the implementation of the APR calculation for one year and maintain it temporarily the general regulatory framework in force until November 30, 2021.

RISK MANAGEMENT, continued

Additionally, it was decided to advance in the transitory credit risk standard, a capital mitigation mechanism to facilitate the development of the debt agreement market, and that complements a similar treatment of state guarantees already granted by the CMF this year. In the case of Pillar 3, implementation was postponed until 2023.

The Bank, for its part, is already working on the implementation of the regulations through a multidisciplinary group, which are carrying out the necessary exercises and required developments, including the implementation of the files designed by the regulator for this purpose, taking into account consideration of the implementation schedule.

The basic capital and effective equity levels at the end of each period are as follows:

|  |  | Ratio
| As of September 30, |  | As of December 31, |  | As of September 30, |  | As of December 31,
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020

Basic capital / Common equity level 1 | 3,281,011 |  | 3,652,599 |  | 5.17 |  | 6.84
Regulatory capital | 4,952,600 |  | 5,143,843 |  | 14.16 |  | 15.37

Concentration of risk

The Bank operates mainly in Chile, so most of its financial instruments are concentrated in that country, Refer to Note 9 of the financial statements for a breakdown of the concentration by industry of the Bank’s receivables and accounts receivable.

NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Banco Santander-Chile 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.

Given the facts and circumstances arising from the social contingency in Chile and the global pandemic due to Covid-19 (situations beyond the Bank’s control), the process of sale of the shares has taken a longer time than initially estimated, however the Bank continues committed to the sale plan for said assets and to its acquisition network development plan, evidenced by the recent creation of a payment card operating company and the active search for potential buyers.

The following investments in associates were classified to non-current assets held for sale:

|  | As of September 30, 2021 | As of December 31, 2020
| Participation | Assets | Result | Assets | Result
