The provisions for Litigation and Other - current and non-current correspond to estimates made by the Administration, intended to cover eventual effects that may derive from the resolution of trials/claims or uncertainties to which the Company is exposed. Such trails/claims or uncertainties derive from transactions that are part of the normal course of CCU's business and the countries where it operates and whose details and scopes are not fully public knowledge, so that its detailed exposition could affect the interests of the Company and the progress of the resolution of these, according to the legal reserves of each administrative and judicial procedure. Therefore, based on the provisions of IAS 37 "Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets", paragraph 92, although the amounts provisioned in relation to these trials/claims or uncertainties are indicated, no further detail of the same at the closing of these Financial Statements. Significant litigation proceedings which the Company is exposed to at a consolidated level are detailed in Note 35 - Contingencies and commitments . Management believes that based on the development of such proceedings to date, the provisions established on a case by case basis are adequate to cover the possible adverse effects that could arise from these proceedings.
