In addition during 2022, given the recovery of the investment in the associate Reintegra S.A.S due to the eliminations of downstream transactions between Bancolombia S.A. and Reintegra S.A.S. The Bank management requested a valuation, to establish the recoverable amount of associate, which amounted to COP 8,735, based in value in use of associate. As a result of the valuation, the recoverable amount of the investment was lower than the book value, therefore, the Bank recorded an impairment in the Statement of Income for COP 7,688.

(1)For further information see Note 25.5 Dividends and net income on equity investments.
(2)During the year 2022, the impairment loss relates mainly to the fact that the Bank's management requested a valuation of joint ventures Fondo de Capital Privado Ruta del Sol compartment A to establish the recoverable amount based in value in use of the previously mentioned joint ventures, which amounted to COP 10,159. As a result of the valuation, the recoverable amount on both investments was lower than the book value, therefore, the Bank recorded an impairment in the Consolidated Statement of Income for COP 6,514. See Note 25.5 Dividends and net income on equity investments.
