NOTE 1. BASIS FOR THE PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES APPLIED

Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A. (the Company) was constituted on September 14, 1999, as financial services holding company organized under the laws of Argentina. The Company’s main asset is its interest in Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. (the Bank). Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. is a private-sector bank that offers a full spectrum of financial services both to individual and corporate customers.

PRESENTATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

These consolidated financial statements, which stem from accounting records, have been stated in thousands of Argentine Pesos and are presented in line with the provisions of the Argentine Central Bank’s (“B.C.R.A.”) Communiqué “A” 3147 and certain supplementary regulations regarding financial reporting requirements for the publication of quarterly/annual financial statements, with the guidelines of Technical Pronouncements Nos. 8 and 19 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (“F.A.C.P.C.E.”) and with the regulations of the National Securities Commission (“C.N.V.”) (Text amended in 2013). These financial statements include the balances corresponding to the operations carried out by Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A. and its subsidiaries.

The financial statements of Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A. have been consolidated on a line-by-line basis with those of its controlled companies, either directly or indirectly, which are detailed in Note 2.

Due to the fact that Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. is the Company’s main equity investment, a financial institution subject to the Argentine Central Bank regulations, and pursuant to the regulations of the C.N.V. (Text amended in 2013), the Company has adopted the valuation and disclosure criteria applied by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A., which in some significant aspects differ from Argentine GAAP in force in Buenos Aires (see Note 1.15).

Furthermore, the consolidated financial statements of Sudamericana Holding S.A. were prepared in accordance with the disclosure and valuation criteria approved by the Argentine Superintendent of Insurance, which in some aspects differ from Argentine GAAP in force in Buenos Aires, particularly regarding the valuation of investments in Secured Loans and certain Government Securities, recoverable values and deferral of acquisition expenses. Nevertheless, this departure has not produced a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements.

The comparative consolidated financial statements include the balances of its subsidiary abroad: Banco Galicia Uruguay S.A. (In liquidation). The conversion into Pesos of this subsidiary’s accounting balances was made in accordance with the following:

i. Assets and liabilities were converted into Pesos according to item 1.2 of this Note.

ii. Allotted capital has been computed for actually disbursed restated amounts.

iii. Retained earnings were determined as the difference between assets, liabilities and allotted capital.

iv. Net income for the period was determined by the difference between retained earnings at the beginning of the fiscal year and retained earnings at period-end.

v. Significant items arising from intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the Balance Sheet and the Income Statement.

CONSIDERATION OF THE EFFECTS OF INFLATION:

Argentine GAAP in force in Buenos Aires provide that financial statements shall be stated in constant currency, pursuant to the provisions of Technical Pronouncements Nos. 6 and 17 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (“F.A.C.P.C.E.”), as amended by Technical Pronouncement No. 39, approved by the Professional Council in Economic Sciences of Buenos Aires on April 16, 2014, as well as interpretation No. 8 of the F.A.C.P.C.E. Argentine GAAP provide that the adjustment for inflation shall be applied upon an inflationary context, which is present when, among other considerations, there exists an accumulated rate of inflation reaching or exceeding 100% during three years, taking into consideration, for such purpose, the domestic wholesale price index published by the Argentine Institute of Statistics and Census. The financial statements reflect the effects of the changes in purchasing power of the currency up to February 28, 2003, the adjustment for inflation having been discontinued from such date, pursuant to the provisions of Argentine G.A.A.P. in force in Buenos Aires and the requirements of Decree No. 664/03 of the Argentine National Executive Branch, Section 268 of General Resolution No. 7/05 of the Corporation Control Authority, Communiqué “A” 3921 of the Argentine Central Bank and General Resolution No. 441/03 of the C.N.V. Resolution M.D. No. 41/03 of the Professional Council in Economic Sciences of Buenos Aires (C.P.C.E.C.A.B.A.), which established the discontinuation of the recognition of the changes in the purchasing power of the currency, effective October 1, 2003.

Even though the controlling agencies have not issued a decision in this regard, at period-end, the conditions for the application of the adjustment for inflation would not be met. However, when reading and analyzing these financial statements one should take into consideration the existence of fluctuations in significant economic variables, which took place during the past fiscal years.

COMPARATIVE INFORMATION:

The comparative information in the Balance Sheet and the related Schedules and Notes corresponds to the end of the previous fiscal year, while that of the Income Statement, the Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Statement of Cash Flows and Cash Equivalents and the related Notes corresponds to the same period of the previous fiscal year. Certain figures in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been reclassified for purposes of their presentation in comparative format with those for this period.

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES:

The preparation of financial statements at a given date requires the Company to make estimates and assessments that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as well as the income and expenses accrued for the period/fiscal year. In this regard, the Company makes estimates in order to calculate, at any given moment, the allowance for uncollectible receivables, the depreciation and amortization charges, the recoverable value of assets, the income tax charge and the provisions for contingencies, among others. Future actual results may differ from estimates and assessments made as of the date that these financial statements were prepared.

Figures Stated in Thousands of Pesos ($) and Thousands of U.S. Dollars (US$)

MOST RELEVANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

1.1.        ASSETS AND LIABILITIES IN DOMESTIC CURRENCY

Monetary assets and liabilities which include, where applicable, the interest accrued at period/fiscal year-end, are stated in period-end currency and therefore require no adjustment whatsoever.

1.2.        ASSETS AND LIABILITIES IN FOREIGN CURRENCY

Foreign currency assets and liabilities have been stated at the U.S. Dollar exchange rate, set by the Argentine Central Bank, in force at the close of operations on the last working day of each month.

As of June 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, balances in U.S. Dollars were converted applying the reference exchange rate (figures stated in Pesos: $14.92, $13.005 and $9.0865, respectively) set by the Argentine Central Bank.

Assets and liabilities valued in foreign currencies other than the U.S. Dollar have been converted into the latter currency using swap rates provided by the Argentine Central Bank.

Interest receivable or payable has been accrued at period/fiscal year-end, where applicable.

1.3.        GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE SECURITIES

Argentine Central Bank regulations set forth, according to the assets’ most probable use, two valuation criteria for holdings of non-financial public sector debt instruments:

a. Fair Market Value: These holdings are government securities and monetary regulation instruments included in the volatilities or present values lists issued by the Argentine Central Bank.

These are recorded at the closing price for each class of securities in the corresponding markets or at their present value, plus the value of amortization and/or interest coupons due and receivable.

b. Acquisition Cost plus the I.R.R.: These include government securities and monetary regulation instruments issued by the Argentine Central Bank that are not included in the preceding item.

These holdings are recorded at their acquisition cost increased on an exponential basis according to their I.R.R. The monthly accrual is charged to income or an asset offset account, depending on the securities involved:

b.1. Government debt instruments subscribed through swap, payment or exchange by any other government debt instruments. In the case that the market value of each instrument is lower than its book value, 50% of the monthly accrual of the I.R.R. must be charged against an asset offset account. Said offset account shall be reversed by charging to income to the extent its balance exceeds the positive difference between the market value and book value.

b.2. Monetary regulation instruments issued by the Argentine Central Bank. The monthly accrual of the I.R.R. shall be charged to income.

b.3. Government securities that were not subscribed through swap with no volatility or present value informed by the Argentine Central Bank. These are recorded at the present value of cash flows discounted by the internal rate of return of instruments with similar characteristics, duration and volatility. When the book value exceeds the present value, the monthly accrual shall be recorded to an asset offset account.

Furthermore, those instruments subject to be valued at the fair market value and then decided to be valued at their acquisition cost plus the I.R.R. may be recorded in this item, when the purpose thereof is to obtain contractual cash flows. In these cases, the maximum amount to be used shall not exceed net liquid assets of 40% of deposits.

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, taking into account the above-mentioned valuation criteria, the Company records its holdings according to the following:

1.3.1.     Holdings Recorded at Fair Market Value

These holdings include trading securities that were valued according to what is stated in item a. above.

FOR THE PERIOD COMMENCED JANUARY 1, 2016 AND ENDED JUNE 30, 2016, PRESENTED IN COMPARATIVE FORMAT

Figures Stated in Thousands of Pesos ($) and Thousands of U.S. Dollars (US$)

The same criterion was applied to the securities used in loans, as guarantees, transactions to be settled and repo transactions, where appropriate.

1.3.2.     Holdings Recorded at their Acquisition Cost plus the I.R.R.

Holdings of government securities in Pesos and U.S. Dollars are recorded in this account, as detailed in Note 3.

The holding of such securities has been valued pursuant to the criterion stated in item b. above.

The same criterion was applied to the securities used in loans, as guarantees, transactions to be settled and repo transactions, where appropriate.

1.3.3.     Instruments Issued by the Argentine Central Bank

Holdings of instruments issued by the Argentine Central Bank, which are included in the volatilities list, have been valued at their closing price in the corresponding markets. The same criterion was applied to holdings of such securities used in loans, as guarantee, transactions to be settled and repo transactions, when appropriate.

Holdings of instruments issued by the Argentine Central Bank, which are not included in the volatilities list, have been valued at their acquisition cost increased on an exponential basis according to their I.R.R. The same criterion was applied to holdings of such securities used in loans, as guarantee and in repo transactions, when appropriate.

1.4.        ACCRUAL OF ADJUSTMENTS, INTEREST, EXCHANGE RATE DIFFERENCES, PREMIUMS ON FUTURE TRANSACTIONS AND VARIABLE INCOME

For foreign and local currency transactions with a principal adjustment clause, as well as for those in which rates have been prearranged for terms up to 92 days, the accrual has been recognized on a linear basis.

For local currency transactions at rates arranged for longer periods, interest has been accrued on an exponential basis.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. received deposits accruing a variable-rate yield pursuant to the Argentine Central Bank regulations. The fixed-rate yield of each transaction is accrued as per the above-mentioned paragraph, while variable-rate yield is accrued by applying the portion of the agreed yield to the positive variation in the underlying asset’s price, which is taken as a basis for determining said variation, occurred between the original arrangement term and the end of the month (See item 1.12. of this Note).

For lending and borrowing transactions, which according to the legal and/or contractual conditions may be applicable, the adjustment by the C.E.R. has been accrued.

For lending transactions, the Company does not recognize interest accrual when debtors are classified in an irregular status.

1.5.        OTHER RECEIVABLES RESULTING FROM FINANCIAL BROKERAGE

1.5.1.     Mutual Fund Units

The holdings of mutual fund units have been valued pursuant to the value published by the mutual fund manager at period/fiscal year-end, less estimated selling costs, when applicable.

1.5.2.     Financial Trust Debt Securities - Unlisted

Debt securities added at par have been valued at their technical value; the remaining holdings were valued at their acquisition cost increased on an exponential basis according to their I.R.R.

1.5.3.     Participation Certificates in Financial Trusts - Unlisted

Participation certificates in financial trusts are valued by taking into account the share in the assets and net of liabilities, which stem from the financial statements of the respective trusts, as modified by the application of the Argentine Central Bank regulations, when applicable.

Trusts — with government-sector assets as underlying assets — have been valued pursuant to the valuation criteria described in item 1.3.2 of this Note. In the particular case of the Participation Certificate in Galtrust I Financial Trust, it has been recorded according to what is stated in item 1.3.b.3 of this Note.

1.5.4.     Unlisted Notes and Debt Securities

These have been valued at their acquisition cost increased on an exponential basis according to their I.R.R.

As of June 30, 2016, debt securities of Banco Ciudad de Buenos Aires are recorded for a face value of $187,500, representing $192,600.

1.6.        RECEIVABLES FROM FINANCIAL LEASES

These receivables are recorded at the present value of the sum of periodic installments and residual values previously established and calculated pursuant to the terms and conditions agreed upon in the corresponding financial lease agreements by applying their I.R.R.

1.7.        EQUITY INVESTMENTS

The Company’s equity investments in companies where it has a significant interest were valued pursuant to the equity method.

The remaining equity investments were valued at their acquisition cost plus, when applicable, uncollected cash dividends and stock dividends from capitalized profits. An allowance for impairment of value has been established on such equity investments where the book value exceeds the equity method value.

1.8.        BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT AND MISCELLANEOUS ASSETS

Bank Premises and Equipment and Miscellaneous Assets have been valued at their acquisition cost, restated at constant currency as mentioned in this Note, net of the corresponding accumulated depreciation.

Financial leases that mainly transfer risks and benefits inherent to the leased property are recognized at the beginning of the lease either by the cash value of the leased property or the present value of cash flows established in the financial lease, whichever is lower.

Depreciation charges are calculated following the straight-line method, at rates determined based on the useful life assigned to the assets, which is 600 months for real estate, up to 120 months for furniture and fixtures and no more than 60 months for the balance of the assets.

The updated residual value of the assets, taken as a whole, does not exceed their value-in-use at period/fiscal year-end.

1.9.        INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets have been valued at their acquisition cost, restated in constant currency, as mentioned in this Note, net of the corresponding accumulated amortization, calculated proportionally over the estimated number of months of useful life.

Amortization has been recognized on a straight-line basis over 60 months for “Organization and Development Expenses”.

1.10.      MISCELLANEOUS LIABILITIES

1.10.1.   Liabilities – Customers Fidelity Program “Quiero”

The fair value of the points assigned to customers through the “Quiero” Program is estimated. Said value is assessed by means of the use of a mathematical model that takes into account certain assumptions of exchange percentages, the cost for the exchanged points based on the combination of available products and the preferences of the Bank’s customers, as well as the expiration term of the customers’ non-exchanged points. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the liabilities recorded under “Miscellaneous Liabilities – Others” for its customers’ non-exchanged points amounted to $311,697 and $286,497, respectively.

1.11.      ALLOWANCES AND PROVISIONS

1.11.1.   Allowances for Loan Losses

These have been established based upon the estimated default risk of the Company’s credit assistance granted through its subsidiaries, which results from an evaluation of debtors’ compliance with their payment obligations, their economic and financial condition, and the guarantees securing their related transactions, in line with the Argentine Central Bank regulations.

1.11.2.   Severance Payments

Severance payments are directly charged to expenses.

The amounts that the Company may possibly have to pay for labor lawsuits are recorded under “Liabilities – Provisions for Severance Payments”.

1.11.3.   Liabilities – Other Provisions

Provisions have been set up to cover contingent situations related to labor, commercial, legal, civil and tax issues and other miscellaneous risks that are likely to occur.

1.12.      DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING TRANSACTIONS

1.12.1.   Forward Purchase-Sale of Foreign Currency without Delivery of the Underlying Asset

Mercado Abierto Electrónico (M.A.E.) and Rosario Futures Exchange (RO.F.EX.) have trading environments for the closing, recording and settlement of financial forward transactions carried out among its agents. The general settlement mode for these transactions is without delivery of the traded underlying asset. Settlement is carried out on a daily basis, in Pesos, for the difference, if any, between the closing price of the underlying asset and the closing price or value of the underlying asset corresponding to the previous day, the difference in price being charged to income.

Forward purchase and sale transactions are recorded under Memorandum Accounts for the notional value traded. Accrued balances pending settlement are recorded in the category “Balances from Forward Transactions without Delivery of Underlying Asset to be Settled” under “Other Receivables Resulting from Financial Brokerage” and/or “Other Liabilities Resulting from Financial Brokerage”, where appropriate.

1.12.2.   Interest Rate Swaps

These transactions are conducted within the environment created by the M.A.E., and the settlement thereof is carried out on a monthly basis, in Pesos, for the difference between the cash flows calculated using a variable rate (Badlar for private banks for time deposits of 30 to 35 days) and the cash flows calculated using a fixed rate, or vice versa, on the notional value agreed, the difference in price being charged to income.

Sale transactions are recorded under Memorandum Accounts for the notional value traded.

Accrued balances pending settlement are recorded in the category “Balances from Interest Rate Swaps to be Settled” under “Other Receivables Resulting from Financial Brokerage” and/or “Other Liabilities Resulting from Financial Brokerage”, as appropriate.

1.12.3.   Call Options Bought and Written on Gold and U.S. Dollar Futures without Delivery of the Underlying Asset

These transactions have been conducted with the purpose of hedging the variable yield of the deposits received by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. and set forth by the Argentine Central Bank.

The deposit date, the term to exercise the option and the underlying asset are the same as those for the related deposit. Notional amounts have been computed so that the offset value of derivative instruments is similar to the variable yield of the investment. Changes in the value of the underlying asset at the time of the arrangement and at period/fiscal year-end, equivalent to the variable yield, have been recognized in income and are recorded under “Other Receivables Resulting from Financial Brokerage” and/or under “Other Liabilities Resulting from Financial

Brokerage”, as appropriate. Premiums received and/or paid have been accrued on a straight-line basis during the currency of the agreement.

Call options bought and written on gold futures have been recorded under “Memorandum Accounts – Debit-Derivatives - Notional Value of Call Options Bought” and under “Memorandum Accounts – Credit-Derivatives – Notional Value of Call Options Written”.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s management of financial risks is carried out within the limits of the policies approved by the Board of Directors in such respect. In that sense, “derivative instruments” carried out are means for the Company to hedge its risk exposures and/or used as a financial product to develop investment and trading strategies. In both cases, the use of these instruments is performed within the guidelines of internal policies set forth by the Bank.

1.13.     INCOME TAX

Pursuant to the Argentine Central Bank regulations, at Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. and Compañía Financiera Argentina S.A., the income tax charge is determined by applying the effective tax rate to the estimated taxable income, without considering the effect of any temporary differences between taxable and book income.

1.14.     MINIMUM PRESUMED INCOME TAX

The minimum presumed income tax is determined at the effective rate of 1% of the computable assets at fiscal year-end. Since this tax is supplementary to the income tax, the Company’s tax liability for each fiscal year is equal to the higher of the two taxes. However, if the minimum presumed income tax were to exceed income tax in a given fiscal year, such excess may be computed as a payment on account of the income tax that could be generated in any of the next ten fiscal years. The recognition of this right and its realization stem from the ability to generate future taxable income sufficient for offsetting purposes.

Based on the foregoing, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had total assets of $10,237 and $10,230, respectively.

The breakdown of outstanding tax credits and their probable expiration date are detailed below:

Date of Generation	Tax Credit as of				Expiration Date
	06.30.16		12.31.15

The Company has set up a provision for the minimum presumed income tax credit accrued during this period and the previous fiscal year, for $5,890 and $4,707, respectively, since its recovery is not likely at the issuance date of these financial statements.

1.15.     DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ARGENTINE CENTRAL BANK REGULATIONS AND ARGENTINE GAAP IN FORCE IN BUENOS AIRES

The main differences between the valuation and disclosure criteria applied to these consolidated financial statements and Argentine GAAP in force in Buenos Aires are detailed below:

1.15.1. Accounting for Income Tax according to the Deferred Tax Method

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. and Compañía Financiera Argentina S.A. determine the income tax charge by applying the effective tax rate to the estimated taxable income, without considering the effect of any temporary differences between book and taxable income.

Pursuant to Argentine GAAP in force, the income tax must be recognized using the deferred tax method and, therefore, deferred tax assets or liabilities must be established based on the aforementioned temporary differences. In addition, unused tax loss carry-forwards or tax credits that may be offset against future taxable income should be recognized as deferred assets, provided that taxable income is likely to be generated.

The application of this criterion, based on projections prepared by the aforementioned subsidiaries of the Company, would determine deferred tax assets amounting to $380,406 as of June 30, 2016 and $414,758 as of December 31, 2015.

1.15.2. Valuation of Government Securities

Argentine Central Bank regulations set forth specific valuation criteria for government securities recorded at their acquisition cost plus the I.R.R., which are described in 1.3.b. of this Note. Pursuant to Argentine GAAP in force in Buenos Aires, the above-mentioned assets must be valued at their current value.

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the application of this criterion would determine an increase in Shareholders’ Equity of about $9,027 and $38,418, respectively, due to the securities held by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.

1.15.3. Allowances for Receivables from the Non-Financial Public Sector

Current regulations issued by the Argentine Central Bank on the establishment of allowances provide that credits against the public sector are not subject to allowances for loan losses. Pursuant to Argentine GAAP, those allowances must be estimated based on the recoverability risk of the assets.

1.15.4. Debt Securities

Had the holding of debt securities of Banco Ciudad de Buenos Aires been marked to market, Shareholders’ Equity would have increased by $9,798.

1.15.5. Restructured Loans and Liabilities

Restructured loans and financial obligations are valued based on the actually restructured principal amounts plus accrued interest and principal adjustments, when applicable, minus collections or payments made.

Figures Stated in Thousands of Pesos ($) and Thousands of U.S. Dollars (US$)

Pursuant to Argentine GAAP, those restructured loans and liabilities, for which modification of original conditions imply a substitution of instruments, must be recorded on the basis of the best possible estimate of the amounts receivable or payable discounted at a market rate that reflects market evaluations on the time value of money and the specific risks of such assets and liabilities at the time of restructuring.

1.16.     ADOPTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (I.F.R.S.) BY THE C.N.V.

The C.N.V. has established the application of Technical Pronouncement No. 26 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences, which adopts the International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the I.A.S.B. (International Accounting Standards Board) for certain entities included within the public offering system, whether because of their capital or their Notes, or because they have requested to be included in such system, for financial statements corresponding to the fiscal years beginning from January 1, 2012.

The adoption of such standards is not applicable to the Company since the C.N.V., in Article 2 – Section I – Chapter I of Title IV: Periodic Reporting System of the C.N.V.’s Pronouncements (Text amended in 2013), exempts banks, insurance companies and companies that invest in banks and insurance companies.

Due to the foregoing, and since the Company complies with the requirements described below, which are set forth in the aforementioned article, these financial statements are presented pursuant to the valuation and disclosure criteria established by the Argentine Central Bank regulations:

- The Company’s corporate purpose is exclusively related to financial and investment activities;

- The interest in Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. accounts for 92.68% of the Company’s assets, being the Company’s main asset;

- 86.82% of the Company’s income stems from the interest in Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s income; and

- The Company has a 100% interest in Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A., thus having control over such institution.

In February 2014, the Argentine Central Bank decided financial institutions should comply with the I.F.R.S., and established an implementation schedule for such standards, to be effective for fiscal years starting on January 1, 2018. In accordance with the foregoing, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s Board of Directors has become aware of the roadmap established by the Argentine Central Bank and has appointed a coordinator and an alternate coordinator, who shall be in charge of the compliance process. On March 20, 2015, it approved the Implementation Plan required by the regulations, which was submitted on March 27, 2015.

In compliance with the provisions of Communiqué “A” 5635, at the meeting held on March 31, 2016, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s Board of Directors approved the second report on the progress made during the six-month period from September 2015 to March 2016. On such date, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s Audit Committee approved the Special Internal Audit Report related to the Implementation Plan’s level of progress with regard to achieving compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (I.F.R.S.).

Furthermore, the reporting requirements established by the Argentine Central Bank’s Communiqué “A” 5844, as supplemented, have been met.

NOTE 5. STATEMENT OF DEBTORS’ STATUS

The loan portfolio classification pursuant to the loan classification criteria set forth by the Argentine Central Bank is detailed as follows:

COMMERCIAL LOAN PORTFOLIO

Classification:	Description
Normal	Cash flow analysis shows that the customer is widely able to meet all of its financial commitments. Among the indicators that can reflect this situation, the following are worth noting: The customer shows a liquid financial situation, regularly complies with the payment of its obligations, has a qualified and honest management, has an appropriate information system, belongs to a sector of the economic activity or to a business sector that shows an acceptable future trend and is competitive with regard to the activities it conducts.
With Special Follow-Up – Under Observation	Cash flow analysis shows, at the time of carrying out the analysis, that the customer is able to meet all of its financial commitments. However, there are possible situations that, in case they are not duly controlled or else solved, could compromise the customer’s future repayment capacity.
With Special Follow-Up - Under Negotiation or under Refinancing Agreements	This category includes those customers who, when unable to meet their financial commitments pursuant to the terms and conditions agreed, irrefutably state their intention to refinance their debt.
With Problems	Cash flow analysis shows that the customer is unable to meet its financial commitments in a normal manner and that, in case such problems are not solved, they could result in a loss for the financial institution.
High Risk of Insolvency	Cash flow analysis shows that the customer is highly unlikely to meet all of its financial commitments.
Uncollectible	Customers’ debts included in this category are considered uncollectible. Even though there is some possibility of recovering these assets under certain circumstances in the future, it is evident they are uncollectible at the time of the analysis.
CONSUMER AND HOUSING LOAN PORTFOLIO
Classification:	Description
Normal Performance	This category includes customers who duly and timely comply with the payment of their commitments, or else with payment in arrears of less than 31 days. Provisional overdrafts shall be considered normal until day 61 from the granting date.
Inadequate Performance	This category includes customers with occasional late payments at the time of meeting their commitments, with payments in arrears of more than 31 days and up to 90 days.
Deficient Performance	This category includes customers who show some inability to meet their commitments, with payments in arrears of more than 90 days and up to 180 days.
Difficult Collection	This category includes customers with payments in arrears of more than 180 days and up to one year, or who are subject to judicial proceedings for collection, if their payments in arrears do not exceed one year.
Uncollectible	This category includes insolvent or bankrupt customers, with little or no possibility of collection, or with payments in arrears in excess of one year.

The Argentine Central Bank also provided for that, since June 2015, equity investments in companies devoted to the issuance of credit, debit and similar cards shall be deducted from the Computable Regulatory Capital (R.P.C.), progressively, reaching 100% in June 2018.

The Argentine Central Bank regulations require that 20% of the profits shown in the Income Statement at fiscal year-end, plus (or less), the adjustments made in previous fiscal years and, less, if any, the loss accumulated at previous fiscal year-end, be allocated to the legal reserve.

This proportion applies regardless of the ratio of the Legal Reserve fund to Capital Stock. Should the Legal Reserve be used to absorb losses, earnings shall be distributed only if the value of the Legal Reserve reaches 20% of the Capital Stock plus the Capital Adjustment.

The Argentine Central Bank sets rules for the conditions under which financial institutions can make distributions of profits. According to these rules, profits can be distributed as long as results of operations are positive after deducting not only the Reserves, which may be legally and statutory required, but also the following items from Unappropriated Retained Earnings: The difference between the book value and the market value of public sector assets and/or debt instruments issued by the Argentine Central Bank not valued at market price, the amounts capitalized for lawsuits related to deposits and any unrecorded adjustments required by the external auditors or the Argentine Central Bank.

Moreover, in order that a financial institution be able to distribute profits, said institution must comply with the capital adequacy rule, i.e. with the calculation of minimum capital requirements and the regulatory capital.

For these purposes, this shall be done by deducting from its assets and Unappropriated Retained Earnings all the items mentioned in the paragraph above.

Figures Stated in Thousands of Pesos ($) and Thousands of U.S. Dollars (US$)

Moreover, in such calculation, a financial institution shall not be able to compute the temporary reductions that affect minimum capital requirements, computable regulatory capital or its capital adequacy.

Since January 2016, the Argentine Central Bank determined that banks shall meet an additional capital conservation buffer apart from the minimum capital requirement equal to 3.5% of risk-weighted assets. This shall be made up only of Tier 1 Common Capital, net of deductible items. Distribution of profits shall be restricted when the Bank’s computable regulatory capital level and structure is within the range of the capital conservation buffer.

Distribution of profits shall require the prior authorization of the Argentine Central Bank’s Superintendent of Financial and Foreign Exchange Institutions, whose intervention shall have the purpose of verifying the aforementioned requirements have been fulfilled.

In addition to the aforementioned restrictions established by the Argentine Central Bank, which are applicable to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. and Compañía Financiera Argentina S.A., pursuant to Section 70 of the Argentine General Corporations Law, stock companies shall establish a reserve not lower than 5% of the realized and liquid profits shown in the Income Statement for the fiscal year, until 20% of the corporate capital is reached. In the event that said reserve is reduced for any reason, no profits can be distributed until its total refund.

At the Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of Compañía Financiera Argentina S.A., held on April 21, 2016, the company approved the allocation of 20% of its income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 as follows: $25,464 to Legal Reserve, $101,855 to a Discretionary Reserve for future distribution of profits, which would be made up of the total amount of $377,581. The amount of $300,000 is released from the accumulated reserve for the distribution of a cash dividend in proportion to the respective shareholdings, and subject to the Argentine Central Bank’s authorization (See Note 38).

Tarjeta Naranja S.A.’s Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on March 16, 2006 decided to set the maximum limit for the distribution of dividends at 25% of the realized and liquid profits of each fiscal year. This restriction shall remain in force as long as the company’s Shareholders’ Equity is below $300,000.

Pursuant to the Price Supplement of the Class XIII Notes, as well as in accordance with certain financial loan contracts, Tarjeta Naranja S.A. has agreed not to distribute dividends that may exceed 50% of the company’s net income. This restriction also applies in the event of any excess over certain indebtedness ratios.

NOTE 30. CONTRIBUTION TO THE DEPOSIT INSURANCE SYSTEM

Law No. 24485 and Decree No. 540/95 established the creation of the Deposit Insurance System to cover the risk attached to bank deposits, in addition to the system of privileges and safeguards envisaged in the Financial Institutions Law.

The National Executive Branch through Decree No. 1127/98 dated September 24, 1998 established the maximum amount for this insurance system to demand deposits and time deposits denominated either in Pesos and/or in foreign currency. From November 1, 2014 to April 30, 2016, such limit was established at $350. As from May 1, 2016, the Argentine Central Bank increased it to $450.

This system does not cover deposits made by other financial institutions (including time deposit certificates acquired through a secondary transaction), deposits made by parties related to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A., either directly or indirectly, deposits of securities, acceptances or guarantees and those deposits set up at an interest rate exceeding the one established regularly by the Argentine Central Bank based on a daily survey conducted by it. Deposits acquired through endorsement, placements made as a result of incentives other than interest rates and locked-up balances from deposits and other excluded transactions are also excluded. This system has been implemented through the constitution of the Deposit Insurance Fund (“FGD”), which is managed by a company called Seguros de Depósitos S.A. (SE.DE.S.A.). SE.DE.S.A.’s shareholders are the Argentine Central Bank and the financial institutions, in the proportion determined for each one by the Argentine Central Bank based on the contributions made to the fund.

The monthly contribution that institutions had to make to the Fund until March 2016 was 0.06%, except for time deposits in U.S. Dollars raised or renewed during the period from February 11, 2015 to January 31, 2016, for which it was 0.015 %.

Effective as of the contribution maturing in April 2016, the Argentine Central Bank established a 0.015% rate for the monthly average of all deposits.

NOTE 34. CONTINGENCIES

TAX ISSUES

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.

At the date of these financial statements, provincial tax collection authorities, as well as tax collection authorities from Buenos Aires, are in the process (in different degrees of completion) of conducting audits and assessments mainly regarding the Compensatory Bond granted by the National Government to compensate financial institutions for the losses generated by the asymmetric pesification of loans and deposits.

As regards the assessment of tax collection authorities from Buenos Aires, within the framework of the legal actions brought by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. with the purpose of challenging the assessment of the tax collection authorities, a preliminary injunction was granted by the Argentine Federal Court of Appeals in Administrative Matters for the amount corresponding to the Compensatory Bond, which was ratified by the Supreme Court of Justice. Therefore, the Court ordered the A.G.I.P. (Governmental Public Revenue Authority) to refrain from starting tax enforcement proceedings or otherwise requesting precautionary measures for such purpose until a final judgment is

issued. The proceedings are currently pending a decision by the Argentine Federal Court of Appeals in Administrative Matters with regard to the appeal filed by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. against the decision issued on the core issue by the Court of First Instance in November 2013. In any case, it is worth noting the decision issued by the federal prosecutor of the Court of Appeals was favorable to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.

With regard to the city of Buenos Aires’ claims on account of other items, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. adhered to the System for the Settlement of Tax Liabilities in Arrears (Law No. 3461 and the related regulations), which envisaged the total relief of interest and fines. The Bank’s adherence to such system was communicated within the framework of the respective cases before the corresponding judicial authorities.

In connection with the assessments made by tax collection authorities from the Province of Buenos Aires, under the framework of some of the processes under discussion at the Provincial Tax Court’s stage, at this stage of proceedings the decision issued was: (i) unfavorable to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s request regarding the items not related to the Compensatory Bond, and (ii) favorable with regard to the non-taxability thereof. Therefore, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. adhered to the System for the Regularization of Tax Debts (Regulatory Decision No. 12 and related decisions), which envisages discounts on the amounts not related to the Compensatory Bond. The Bank’s adherence to such system was communicated within the framework of the respective cases before the corresponding judicial authorities. In turn, the authorities from the Province of Buenos Aires objected to the judgment rendered by the Provincial Tax Court with regard to the Compensatory Bond, and requested the Court of Appeals in Administrative Matters of La Plata to set such decision aside. Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. entered an appearance and filed a motion for lack of jurisdiction, since it believes only the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice has jurisdiction to issue a decision on such a matter. On April 15, 2014, the aforementioned Court sustained the motion for lack of jurisdiction and ordered the proceedings to be filed. The authorities from the Province of Buenos Aires filed an appeal before the Supreme Court of Justice of the Province of Buenos Aires, which has not issued a decision to date.

Furthermore, regarding the claims made by the different jurisdictions, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has been expressing its disagreement regarding these adjustments at the corresponding administrative and/or legal proceedings.

These proceedings and their possible effects are constantly being monitored by Management. Even though Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. considers that it has complied with its tax liabilities in full pursuant to current regulations, the provisions deemed adequate pursuant to the evolution of each proceeding have been set up.

Tarjetas Regionales S.A.

At the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Argentine Revenue Service (A.F.I.P.), Provincial Revenue Boards and Municipalities are in the process of conducting audits and assessments, in different degrees of completion, at the companies controlled by Tarjetas Regionales S.A. Said agencies have served notices and made claims regarding taxes applicable to Tarjetas Regionales S.A.’s subsidiaries. Therefore, the companies are taking the corresponding administrative and legal steps in order to resolve such issues. The original amount claimed for taxes totals approximately $13,687.

Based on the opinions of their tax advisors, the companies believe that the above-mentioned claims are both legally and technically groundless and that taxes related to the claims have been correctly calculated in accordance with the tax regulations currently in force and existing case law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the companies have set up the provisions deemed appropriate pursuant to the evolution of each proceeding.

NOTE 35. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES

The tasks related to risk information and internal control of each of the controlled companies are defined and carried out, rigorously. This particularly affects the Bank, where the requirements are stringent, as it is a financial institution regulated by the Argentine Central Bank. Apart from applicable local regulations, the Company, in its capacity as a listed company in the United States of America, complies with the certification of its internal controls pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act (Sarbanes Oxley). Corporate risk management is monitored by the Audit Committee, which also gathers and analyzes the information submitted by the main controlled companies.

The specific function of the comprehensive management of Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s risks has been allocated to the Risk Management Division, guaranteeing its independence from the rest of the business areas since it directly reports to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s General Division and, at the same time, is involved in the decisions made by each area. In addition, the control and prevention of risks related to asset laundering, funding of terrorist activities and other illegal activities are allocated to the Prevention and Control of Money Laundering and Funding of Terrorist Activities Division. The aim of both divisions is to guarantee the Board of Directors are fully aware of the risks that Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. is exposed to, and to design and propose policies and procedures necessary to mitigate and control such risks.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has developed the Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (Proceso de Evaluación de Suficiencia de Capital - PESC) to assess the relationship between the Bank’s own available and necessary resources to maintain an appropriate risk profile. This process shall also allow for the identification of both the economic capital needs and the sources to meet such needs.

In turn, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has developed a risk appetite framework, which has risk acceptance levels, both on an individual and a consolidated basis. Within this framework, ratios have been established, which are regularly submitted to the Risk and Capital Allocation Committee.

Each of these ratios has an excess threshold and related actions in case of deviations.

FINANCIAL RISKS

Short- and medium-term financial risks are managed within the framework of policies approved by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s Board of Directors, which establishes limits to the different risk exposure and also considers their interrelation. Management is supplemented by “contingency plans” devised to face adverse market situations. Furthermore, “stress tests” that make it possible to assess risk exposure under historical and simulated scenarios are created, which identify critical levels of the different risk factors.

LIQUIDITY

Daily liquidity is managed according to the set strategy, which seeks to keep adequate liquid resources to mitigate the adverse effects caused by irregular variations in loans and deposits, in addition to coping with “stress” situations.

The current liquidity policy in force provides for the setting of limits and monitoring of a) liquidity as it relates to stock: a level of “Management Liquidity Requirement” was established as the excess over legal minimum cash requirements, taking into consideration the characteristics and behavior of Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s different liabilities, and the liquid assets that make up such liquidity were determined as well; and b) cash flow liquidity: gaps between the contractual maturities of consolidated financial assets and liabilities are analyzed and monitored. There is a cap for the gap between maturities, determined based on the gap accumulated against total liabilities permanently complied with during the first year.

Furthermore, the policy sets forth a contingency plan, by currency type, that determines the steps to be taken and the assets from which additional liquid resources can be obtained.

With the purpose of mitigating the liquidity risk that arises from deposit concentration per customer, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has a policy that regulates the concentration of deposits among the main customers.

CURRENCY RISK

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s current policy in force establishes limits in terms of maximum “net asset positions” (assets denominated in a foreign currency which are higher than the liabilities denominated in such currency) and “net liability positions” (assets denominated in a foreign currency which are lower than the liabilities denominated in such currency) for mismatches in foreign currency, as a proportion of Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s R.P.C.

An adequate balance between assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency is what characterizes the management strategy for this risk factor, seeking to achieve a full coverage of long-term asset-liability mismatches and allowing a short-term mismatch management margin that contributes to the possibility of improving certain market situations. Short- and long-term goals are attained by appropriately managing assets and liabilities and by using the financial products available in our market, particularly “dollar futures” both in institutionalized markets (M.A.E. and RO.F.EX.) and in forward transactions performed with customers.

Transactions in foreign currency futures (Dollar futures) are subject to limits that take into consideration the particular characteristics of each trading environment.

INTEREST RATE RISK

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s exposure to the “interest rate risk”, as a result of interest rate fluctuations and the different sensitivity of assets and liabilities, is managed according to the approved strategy. On the one hand, it considers a short-term horizon, seeking to keep the net financial margin within the levels set by the policy. On the other hand, it considers a long-term horizon, the purpose of which is to mitigate the negative impact on the present value of Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s Shareholders’ Equity in the face of changes in interest rates.

From a comprehensive viewpoint of risk exposure and contributing to including a “risk premium” in the pricing process, the aim is to systematically estimate the “economic capital” used up by the structural risk as per the financial statements (interest rate risk) and the contribution of the “price risk”, in its different expressions, to using up the capital.

MARKET RISK

Trading of and/or investment in government and corporate securities, currencies, derivatives and debt instruments issued by the Argentine Central Bank, which are listed on the capital markets and the value of which varies pursuant to

the variation of the market prices thereof, are included within the policy which limits the maximum authorized losses during a year.

The “price risk” (market) is daily managed according to the strategy approved, the purpose of which is to keep Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. present in the different derivatives, variable- and fixed-income markets while obtaining the maximum return as possible on trading, without exposing the latter to excessive risk levels. Finally, the designed policy contributes to providing transparency and facilitates the perception of the risk levels to which it is exposed.

In order to measure and monitor risks derived from the variation in the price of financial instruments frequently listed in the secondary markets that form the trading securities portfolio, a model known as “Value at Risk” (also known as “VaR”) is used. This model measures, for Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. individually, the possible loss that could be generated by the positions in securities and currencies under certain parameters. For financial instruments not frequently listed or with no representative listing in the secondary markets, the methodology known as DV01 is used. This entails estimating the change in value of a portfolio, for variations of one interest rate percentage point.

CROSS-BORDER RISK

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s foreign trade transactions and management of “treasury” resources imply assuming cross-border risk positions. These exposures related to cross-border assets are in line with Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s business and financial strategy, the purpose of which is to provide customers with efficient commercial assistance and to improve the management of available liquid resources within an appropriate risk and yield environment.

TRANSFER RISK

The possibility of diversifying funding sources, as contemplated by the liquidity strategy, by obtaining resources in foreign capital markets, involves the possible exposure to potential regulatory changes that hinder or increase the cost of the transfer of foreign currency abroad to meet liability commitments. The policy that manages the risk of transferring foreign currency abroad thus contributes to the liquidity strategy and pursues the goal of reaching an adequate balance between liabilities payable to local counterparties and those payable to foreign counterparties in a return-risk proportion that is adequate for Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s business and growth.

EXPOSURE TO THE NON-FINANCIAL PUBLIC SECTOR

With the purpose of regulating risk exposure with regard to the non-financial public sector, in the national, provincial and municipal jurisdictions, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. defined a policy which by design envisages risk exposure in each jurisdiction, as well as the “possible loss” of value related to such holdings.

CREDIT RISK

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. uses credit assessment and risk monitoring tools to allow its management on a prompt and controlled basis to control its level of exposure to potential risks and encourages a proper portfolio diversification, both in individual terms and by economic sector.

Strategically, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has decided to deepen its customers’ knowledge expressed in a specific policy, which allows for providing credit assistance to them according to their financing needs and based on their evaluated attributes, purposes and perspectives.

Several risk appetite indicators, calculated based on current and stress ratios, are monitored within the credit risk management in order to detect situations that may affect the normal course of business, the noncompliance with the strategy and undesired results and/or situations of vulnerability in the face of changes in market conditions.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s credit granting and analysis system is applied in a centralized manner and is based on the concept of “opposition of interests”, which takes place when risk management, credit and commercial duties are segregated, with respect to both retail and wholesale businesses. This allows for an ongoing and efficient monitoring of the quality of assets, an early management of problem loans, aggressive write-offs of uncollectible loans, and a conservative policy on allowances for loan losses.

OPERATIONAL RISK

Pursuant to the best practices and the guidelines determined by the Argentine Central Bank, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has an Operational Risk Management Division, through which it has implemented the Operational Risk Management Framework. This framework includes the Bank’s policies, practices, procedures and structures for the appropriate management of this Risk.

Operational Risk is the risk of losses due to the lack of conformity or due to failure of internal processes, the acts of people or systems, or due to external events. It includes legal risk, but does not include strategic and reputational risks.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. manages operational risk inherent to its products, activities, processes and material systems, technology and information security processes, as well as risks derived from subcontracted activities and from services rendered by providers. Such management includes the identification, assessment, monitoring, control and mitigation of operational risks.

Before launching or introducing new products, activities, processes or systems, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. makes sure its operational risks are appropriately assessed.

This way, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has the necessary structure and resources to be able to determine the operational risk profile and thus take the corresponding corrective measures, complying with the regulations set forth by the Argentine Central Bank on guidelines for operational risk management in financial institutions and operational risk events database.

The minimum capital requirement with regard to the operational risk is determined according to the Argentine Central Bank regulations.

An appropriate management of operational risks also helps improve customer service quality.

In compliance with Communiqué “A” 5398, securitization, concentration, reputational and strategic risks were identified as significant risks, and a computation and measurement method was developed, which is currently being implemented. These risks, together with those mentioned previously, were included in the Capital Adequacy Assessment Report (I.A.C., as per its acronym in Spanish), within the framework of Communiqué “A” 5515.

SECURITIZATION RISK

Securitization is an alternative source of financing and a mechanism for the transfer of risks to investors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, securitization activities and the fast innovation with regard to the techniques and instruments used in such activities also generate new risks, including the following:

i) Credit, market, liquidity, concentration, legal and reputational risks, due to the securitization positions held or invested, including, among others, liquidity facilities and credit enhancements granted; and

ii) Credit risk due to the underlying exposures with regard to securitization.

CONCENTRATION RISK

Risk concentration has to do with the exposure or groups of exposure with similar characteristics, for instance when they belong to the same debtor, counterparty or guarantor, geographic area or economic sector; or because they are secured by the same type of assets used as collateral, with the possibility of generating:

i) Losses with regard to income, regulatory capital, assets or the global risk level, that are significant enough to affect the financial strength of the financial institution or its ability to keep the financial institution’s main transactions;

ii) A major change in the financial institution’s risk profile.

REPUTATIONAL RISK

Reputational risk is defined as the risk associated with a negative perception of the financial institution by customers, counterparties, shareholders, investors, account holders, market analysts and other significant market players, which adversely affects the financial institution’s ability to keep existing business relationships or establish new relationships, and continue having access to funding sources such as the interbank market or the securitization market.

STRATEGIC RISK

Strategic risk is that which arises from an inappropriate business strategy or an adverse change in forecasts, parameters, goals and other functions that support such strategy. Even though estimating this risk is complex, institutions must develop new management techniques that include all the related aspects.

ASSET LAUNDERING, FUNDING OF TERRORIST ACTIVITIES AND OTHER ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES RISK

As regards the control and prevention of asset laundering and funding of terrorist activities, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. complies with the regulations set forth by the Argentine Central Bank, the Financial Information Unit and Law No. 25246, as amended, which creates the Financial Information Unit (U.I.F.), under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights with functional autarchy. The Financial Information Unit is in charge of analyzing, addressing and reporting the information received, in order to prevent and avoid both asset laundering and funding of terrorist activities.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has promoted the implementation of measures designed to fight against the use of the international financial system by criminal organizations. For such purposes, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has control policies, procedures and structures that are applied using a “risk-based approach”, which allow for the monitoring of transactions, pursuant to the “customer profile” (defined individually based on the information and documentation related to the economic, financial and tax condition of the customer), in order to detect such transactions that should be considered unusual, and to report them to the U.I.F. in applicable cases. The Anti-Money Laundering Unit (“U.A.L.” as per its initials in Spanish – Unidad Antilavado) is in charge of managing this activity, through the implementation of control and prevention procedures as well as the communication thereof to the rest of the organization by drafting related handbooks and training all employees. In addition, the management of this risk is regularly reviewed by Internal Audit.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has appointed a director as Compliance Officer, pursuant to Resolution 121/11 of the U.I.F., who shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with and implementation of the proceedings and obligations on the issue.

Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. contributes to the prevention and mitigation of risks from transaction-related criminal behaviors by being involved in the international regulatory standards adoption process.

In compliance with Communiqué “A” 5394 issued by the Argentine Central Bank, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. publishes on its website (http://www.bancogalicia.com.ar) a document entitled “Disciplina de Mercado” quarterly, which includes information related to the structure and adequacy of regulatory capital, the exposure to the different risks and the management thereof.

NOTE 36. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE TRANSPARENCY POLICY

GRUPO FINANCIERO GALICIA S.A.

Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A.’s Board of Directors is the Company’s highest management body. It is made up of eight (8) directors and three (3) alternate directors, who must have the necessary knowledge and skills to clearly understand their responsibilities and duties within the corporate governance, and to act with the loyalty and diligence of a good businessman.

As set out in its bylaws, the term of office for both directors and alternate directors is three (3) years; they are partially changed every year and may be reelected indefinitely.

The Company complies with the appropriate standards regarding total number of directors, as well as the number of independent directors. Furthermore, its bylaws provide for the flexibility necessary to adapt the number of directors to the possible changes in the conditions in which the Company carries out its activities, from three (3) to nine (9) directors.

The Board of Directors complies, in every relevant respect, with the recommendations included in the Code on Corporate Governance as Schedule IV to Title IV of the regulations issued by the National Securities Commission (Text amended in 2013).

It also monitors the application of the corporate governance policies provided for by the regulations in force through the Audit Committee and the Committee for Information Integrity. Periodically, the Committees provide the Board of Directors with information, and the Board gets to know the decisions of each Committee. What is appropriate is transcribed in the minutes drafted at the Board of Directors’ meetings.

The Audit Committee set by Capital Markets Law No. 26831 and the C.N.V.’s regulations is formed by three (3) independent directors, and the Committee for Information Integrity’s mission is to comply with the provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley.

Basic Holding Structure

Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A. is a company whose sole purpose is to conduct financial and investment activities as per Section 31 of the Argentine General Corporations Law. That is to say, it is a holding company whose activity involves managing its equity investments, assets and resources.

Within the group of companies in which the Company has an interest, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. stands out, in which the former has a controlling equity interest, being its main asset as well. Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A., as a banking institution, is subject to certain regulatory restrictions imposed by the Argentine Central Bank. In particular, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. can only hold a 12.5% interest in the capital stock of companies that do not carry out activities considered supplementary by the Argentine Central Bank. Therefore, the Company holds, either directly or indirectly, the remaining interests in several companies. In addition, the Company indirectly holds a number of equity investments in supplementary companies that belong to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. as the controlling company.

Since the Company is a holding company, it has a limited personnel structure, and, therefore, many of the business organization requirements, common for big productive institutions, cannot be applied to this company.

To conclude, one should note that the Company is under the control of a pure holding company, EBA Holding S.A., which has the number of votes necessary to hold the majority of votes at the Shareholders’ Meetings, although it does not have any managerial functions over the Company and the Company has no group relationship with EBA Holding S.A.

The aim of this policy is to provide an objective and fair basis, through the design and implementation of tools for the management of the fixed and variable compensation paid to each employee, based on the scope and complexity of each position’s responsibilities, individual performance with regard to compliance thereof, contribution to the Bank’s results and conformity to market values, with the purpose of:

With the purpose of gearing individuals towards the achievement of attainable results that contribute to the global performance of the Bank/Area, and to the increase in motivation for the common attainment of goals, differentiating individual contribution, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. has different variable compensation systems:

1. Business Incentives and/or Incentives through Commissions system for business areas.

2. Annual Bonus System for management levels, officers and the rest of the employees who are not included in the business incentives system. The annual bonus is determined based on individual performance and Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s results, and is paid in the first quarter of the next fiscal year. To determine the variable compensation for the senior management and middle management, the Bank uses the Management Performance Assessment System. This system has been designed to include both qualitative and quantitative K.P.I. (Key Performance Indicators). In particular, quantitative Key Performance Indicators are designed with respect to at least three minimum aspects:

- Results.

- Business volume or size.

- Projections: Indicators that protect the business for the future (For example: Quality, internal and external customer satisfaction, risk coverage, work environment, etc.).

The significance or impact of each of them is monitored and adjusted yearly pursuant to the strategy approved by the Board of Directors.

The interaction among these three aspects seeks to make incentives related to results and growth consistent with the risk thresholds determined by the Board of Directors.

In turn, there is no deferred payment of variable compensation subject to the occurrence of future events or in the long term, taking into consideration that the business environment in the Argentine financial system is characterized by being mainly transactional, with lending and borrowing transactions with a very short seasoning term.

Annual budget and management control – the latter carried out monthly in a general manner and quarterly in a more detailed manner - include different risk ratios, including the ratio between compensation and risks undertaken.

Variable compensation is only paid in cash. There are no payments in shares.

Every change to this policy is submitted to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s Human Resources and Governance Committee for its consideration.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD COMMENCED JANUARY 1, 2016 AND ENDED JUNE 30, 2016, PRESENTED IN COMPARATIVE FORMAT

Figures Stated in Thousands of Pesos ($) and Thousands of U.S. Dollars (US$)

NOTE 1. BASIS FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These financial statements have been stated in thousands of Argentine Pesos and prepared in accordance with disclosure and valuation accounting standards contained in the Technical Pronouncements issued by the F.A.C.P.C.E., approved by the C.P.C.E.C.A.B.A. and the C.N.V., with the considerations mentioned in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in relation to the criteria for the valuation of the subsidiaries Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. and Sudamericana Holding S.A.

The preparation of financial statements at a given date requires the Company’s Management to make estimates and assessments regarding events and/or situations and/or circumstances that affect or may affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at that date, as well as the income and expenses recorded for the period/fiscal year. The Company’s Management makes estimates in order to calculate, at any given moment, for example, the depreciation charges, the recoverable value of assets, the income tax charge and provisions for contingencies. Estimates and assessments made as of the date that these financial statements were prepared may differ from the situations, events and/or circumstances that may finally occur in the future.

On March 25, 2003, the Argentine National Executive Branch issued Decree No. 664 establishing that financial statements for fiscal years ending as from said date be stated in nominal currency. Consequently, in accordance with Resolution No. 441/03 of the C.N.V., the Company discontinued the restatement of its financial statements as of March 1, 2003. This criterion is not in line with Argentine GAAP, under which financial statements are to be restated until September 30, 2003. Nevertheless, this departure has not produced a significant effect on the financial statements.

The index used for restating the items in these financial statements was the domestic wholesale price index published by the Argentine Institute of Statistics and Census (I.N.D.E.C.).

The most significant accounting policies used in preparing the Financial Statements are listed below:

A. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES IN DOMESTIC CURRENCY

Monetary assets and liabilities which include, where applicable, the interest accrued at period/fiscal year-end, are stated in period-end currency and therefore require no adjustment whatsoever.

B. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES IN FOREIGN CURRENCY (U.S. DOLLARS)

The assets and liabilities in foreign currency were stated at the U.S. Dollar exchange rate set by the Argentine Central Bank, at the close of operations on the last business day of the period/fiscal year.

Interest receivable or payable has been accrued, where applicable.

C. INVESTMENTS

C.1. Current

Time and special checking account deposits have been measured at their face value, plus accrued interest at period/fiscal year-end.

Argentine mutual fund units have been valued at fiscal year-end closing price.

C.2. Non-current

The equity investments in companies are recognized using the equity method as of period/fiscal year-end.

The consolidated financial statements of Sudamericana Holding S.A. have been prepared pursuant to the regulations of the Argentine Superintendent of Insurance (S.S.N.), which differ from Argentine GAAP in certain aspects. Nevertheless, this departure has not produced a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD COMMENCED JANUARY 1, 2016 AND ENDED JUNE 30, 2016, PRESENTED IN COMPARATIVE FORMAT

Figures Stated in Thousands of Pesos ($) and Thousands of U.S. Dollars (US$)

The equity investments in Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. and Compañía Financiera Argentina S.A. have been recognized using the equity method, which arises from financial statements prepared in accordance with Argentine Banking GAAP, which differ in the aspects mentioned in Note 1.15. to the consolidated financial statements from Argentine GAAP.

D. GOODWILL

Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of shares in other companies, which is recorded under “Investments”, has been valued at its acquisition cost, net of the corresponding accumulated amortization, calculated proportionally over the estimated useful life.

Amortization is assessed on a straight-line basis in equal monthly installments, with an amortization term of 120 months. See Schedule B.

The updated residual value of the assets does not exceed their estimated recoverable value at period/fiscal year-end.

E. FIXED ASSETS

Fixed Assets have been valued at their acquisition cost, restated at constant currency as mentioned in this Note, net of the corresponding accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation charges are calculated following the straight-line method, at rates determined based on the useful life assigned to the assets, which is 60 months for hardware and software and furniture and fixtures. See Schedule A.

The updated residual value of the assets, taken as a whole, does not exceed their value-in-use at period/fiscal year-end.

F. FINANCIAL DEBT

Financial debt has been valued pursuant to the amount of money received, plus the accrued portion of interest as of period/fiscal year-end.

G. INCOME TAX AND MINIMUM PRESUMED INCOME TAX

The Company has recognized the income tax charge according to the deferred tax method, thus recognizing the temporary differences between measurements of accounting and tax assets and liabilities, at the rate in force (see Note 13 to the financial statements). Due to the unlikelihood that future taxable income may be enough to absorb tax loss carry-forwards, the Company has established an allowance for impairment of value with regard to such income and has not recorded tax loss carry-forwards. See Schedule E.

The Company determines the minimum presumed income tax at the effective rate of 1% of the computable assets at fiscal year-end. This tax is supplementary to the income tax. The Company’s tax liability for each fiscal year shall be determined by the higher of the two taxes. However, if the minimum presumed income tax were to exceed income tax in a given fiscal year, such excess may be computed as a payment on account of the income tax that could be generated in any of the next ten fiscal years.

The Company has set up a provision for the minimum presumed income tax credit accrued during this period and the previous fiscal year, for $5,745 and $4,497, respectively, since its recovery is not likely at the issuance date of these financial statements. See Schedule E.

H. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

H.1. Activity in the Shareholders’ Equity accounts has been restated as mentioned in paragraphs three and four of this Note.

the amortized classes and/or series without exceeding the Program’s total amount, and notwithstanding the fact that the maturity dates of the different classes and/or series issued occur after the Program’s expiration date, with amortization terms not shorter than the minimum term or longer than the maximum term permitted by the regulations set forth by the C.N.V., among other terms.

By means of Resolution No. 16113 dated April 29, 2009, the C.N.V. decided to authorize, with certain conditions, the creation of the Global Program. Such conditions were released on May 8, 2009.

The Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 14, 2010 approved an increase of US$40,000 in the amount of the Global Program for the Issuance of Notes, which was later confirmed by the Company’s Shareholders’ Meeting held on August 2, 2012.

On February 27, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the proceedings to begin to increase the amount of the program. On April 25, 2013, the C.N.V. authorized an increase in the maximum amount of the issuance of Simple Notes under the Global Program, not convertible into shares, for up to a F.V. of US$100,000 or its equivalent in other currencies.

On May 8, 2014, through Resolution No. 17343, the C.N.V. decided to authorize the extension of the term of the Global Program for five (5) years.

On July 27, 2015, Grupo Financiero Galicia S.A. issued Class VII Notes for a total amount of $160,000, maturing on July 27, 2017. Such Notes shall accrue interest at an annual nominal fixed rate of 27% during the first nine months and at a variable rate of BADLAR plus a nominal annual 4.25% rate for the following 15 months. Interest shall be paid on a quarterly basis, since October 27, 2015, and amortization shall be paid in one installment upon maturity.

⁽¹⁾ Settled upon maturity. ⁽²⁾ Annual nominal 27% fixed rate during the first nine months, and variable BADLAR plus a nominal annual 4.25% rate for the following 15 months.

The working capital concept may include, in the case of the Company, among others, investments in affiliated companies, financial investments such as time deposits, financial placements, mutual funds and cash and due from banks.

EQUITY INVESTMENTS

BANCO DE GALICIA Y BUENOS AIRES S.A.

Founded in 1905, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. is one of the largest private-sector banks in the Argentine financial system, and one of the leading providers of financial services in the country. Through affiliated companies and a variety of distribution channels, the Bank offers a full spectrum of financial services to both individual and corporate customers. Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. operates one of the most extensive and diversified distribution networks of the Argentine private financial sector, offering 528 branches, together with 126 points of contact gathered between regional credit-card companies and Compañía Financiera Argentina S.A.

In the first six months of fiscal year 2016, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. recorded net income amounting to $2,299,272, $540,225 higher than that recorded the previous fiscal year, representing a 30.7% increase. The increase in income, when compared to the same period of fiscal year 2015, mainly resulted from the increase of $2,863,588 in net operating income (net financial income plus net income from services). This effect was mainly mitigated by higher: i) administrative expenses of $2,089,427, and ii) provisions for loan losses of $266,697.

Net operating income for the first six months of fiscal year 2016 amounted to $12,273,499, a 30.4% increase as compared to the $9,409,911 recorded in the same period of the previous fiscal year. This positive evolution was due to an increase in net income from: i) net financial income (amounting to $1,830,148, a 34.0% increase), as a result of the increase in the volumes traded during the period, mitigated by a decrease in the financial margin; ii) net income from services (amounting to $1,033,440, a 25.7% increase), the most outstanding of which are commissions related to national and regional credit cards, deposit accounts and foreign trade. Administrative expenses totaled $7,728,670, with a 37.1% increase. Personnel expenses increased by 34.7% mainly due to the salary increase agreed upon with unions. The remaining administrative expenses totaled $3,444,988, 40.1% higher than those as of the same date in the prior fiscal year primarily due to higher tax expenses, movement of funds, maintenance and preservation, electricity and communications, rentals and security services, as a result of the higher activity level and the evolution of costs related to the different services rendered to Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A. Provisions for loan losses amounted to $1,341,437, 24.8% higher than those recorded in the same six-month period of the previous fiscal year, mainly as a result of the evolution of the arrears related to the individuals portfolio.

Total financing to the private sector amounted to $127,128,454, showing a 37.74% growth during the last twelve months, and total deposits reached $118,310,371^(*), growing 52.94% when compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year. As of June 30, 2016, Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.’s estimated share in loans to the private sector was 9.5%, while in deposits from the private sector was 9.6%, when compared to 9.2% and 8.7%, respectively, for the previous fiscal year.

NET INVESTMENT S.A.

The Company’s equity investment in Net Investment S.A.’s capital stock is 87.50%, whereas the remaining 12.50% is owned by Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A.

Net Investment S.A. was created to carry out Internet business transactions.

During 2011, Net Investment S.A.’s shareholders decided to change the corporate purpose in order to be able to make investments in companies that conduct supplementary and/or related activities.

On April 7, 2015, the company’s Board of Directors decided to exercise a put option on 325 shares in Weemba, Inc., representing the whole interest in this company, according to the Put Option Agreement executed on May 17, 2010. The option price amounted to US$15.39 (United States dollars fifteen with 39/100) per share. Such transaction was agreed to on April 23, 2015.

For fiscal year 2016, Net Investment S.A.’s Board of Directors is analyzing new business opportunities and alternatives.

compared to the previous fiscal year-end (December 2015), with an equity managed of $23,872,681 and a 9.6% market share.

In turn, the local funds market has increased the total funds managed by almost 17%, which shows a significant recovery in the pace of growth for the current period.

The above-mentioned external auditors conducted their reviews in accordance with the Argentine auditing standards provided in Technical Pronouncement No. 37 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (F.A.C.P.C.E.) for the review of interim-period financial statements. A review of interim-period financial statements involves making inquiries to the Company’s staff responsible for the preparation of the information included in the interim-period financial statements and in performing analysis procedures and other review procedures. The scope of these reviews is substantially more limited than that of an audit conducted in accordance with Argentine auditing standards. Therefore, a review does not allow us to obtain assurance that we will be aware of all the significant matters that could be identified in an audit. Therefore, we do not express an audit opinion on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows or on its consolidated financial statements.

Given that it is not our responsibility to exercise any management control, the reviews did not extend to the business criteria and decisions of the different areas of the Company, as these matters are the exclusive responsibility of the Board of Directors.

We also report that, in compliance with the legality control that is part of our field of competence, during this period we have applied the other procedures described in Section 294 of Law No. 19550, which we deemed necessary according to the circumstances, including, among others, the control over the creation and subsistence of the directors’ guarantee.

We believe that the work we performed provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

5. Based on our reviews, within the scope described in point 4. above, nothing has called our attention that would make us think that the interim financial statements and the consolidated financial statements mentioned in the first paragraph of this report are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Argentine Central Bank’s accounting standards.

In compliance with the legality control that is part of our field of competence, we have no observations to make.

6. Without changing our conclusion, as mentioned in Note 1.15, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting framework established by the Argentine Central Bank. Such standards differ, in certain aspects, from the professional accounting standards in force. In such note, the Company has identified and quantified the effect on the financial statements derived

from the different valuation and disclosure criteria, except that the quantification cannot be made for unfeasibility reasons.

7. Furthermore, we report the following:

i) The accompanying interim financial statements stem from accounting records kept, in all formal aspects, in compliance with legal regulations prevailing in Argentina; and

ii) We have read the Informative Review, the Additional Information to the Notes to the Financial Statements required by Section 68 of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange Regulations and Title IV, Chapter III, Article 12 of the Regulations of the National Securities Commission, and the Supplementary and Explanatory Statement by the Board of Directors, required by the Rules concerning Accounting Documentation of the Córdoba Stock Exchange Regulations, about which, insofar as concerns our field of competence, we have no significant observations to make.
