The Risk Management process at Itaú Unibanco seeks that:
 
 
Existing and potential risks to Itaú Unibanco’s positions are identified and measured;
 
Risk Management and Control institutional policies, procedures and methodologies are approved and aligned with the directives from the Board of Directors and the Itaú Unibanco’s strategies;

According to Resolution 3,988 of the National Monetary Council (CMN), BACEN Circular 3,547 and BACEN Circular Letter 3,565, Itaú Unibanco implemented a capital management structure and the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), having submitted to BACEN the last ICAAP report on April, 2014, with information regarding December 2013.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s adopts a prospective capital management attitude, which comprises of:
 
 
Identification and analysis of the material risks to which Itaú Unibanco is or may be exposed, and assessment of the adequate capital needed to face them;
 
Capital planning, which takes into account the strategic guidelines, economic environment and the Board of Directors directives;
 
Stress tests, aimed at analyzing Itau Unibanco’s funding level’s behavior under severe stress events;
 
Maintaining an updated capital contingency plan for situations where funding sources are unavailable or insufficient;
 
An internal capital adequacy assessment framework, which assesses the Referential Equity in relation to the adequacy of the capital needed to face the inherent risks;
 
Periodic capital adequacy management reports, submitted to the senior management and Board of Directors members.
 
The guidelines of the institutional capital management policy can be accessed at www.itau-unibanco.com/ri, under Corporate Governance, Regulations and Policies, Public Access Report – Capital Management.
 
1.1
Organizational Structure
 
Itaú Unibanco’s risk management organizational structure complies with Brazilian and international regulations and is aligned with the market’s best practices.  Credit, market, liquidity, operational and underwriting risks control is centrally performed by an independent division, ensuring the risks, to which Itaú Unibanco is exposed, are managed in accordance with the group risk appetite, policies and procedures in place.  This independent division is as well responsible for centralizing Itaú Unibanco’s capital management.  The purpose of the centralized control is to provide the Board and the Senior Management with a global perspective of Itaú Unibanco’s risk exposure, as well as with a prospective understanding of capital adequacy, enhancing the agility and optimization of corporate decisions.
 
Itaú Unibanco in-house developed information technology (IT) systems, managed to fully comply with Central Bank’s requirements on capital adequacy and risk measurement, in accordance with regulatory models and requirements in place.  It also monitors adherence to the qualitative and quantitative authorities’ minimum capital and risk management requirements.

Capital
 
2.1
Capital Management
 
The Board of Directors is the ultimate body in the Itaú Unibanco’s capital management and it is responsible for approving the capital management institutional policy and guidelines regarding the funding level of the conglomerate.  Also in ambit of capital management, through the ICAAP report, the Board of Directors approves:
 
 
the identification of material risks, the determination of the need for additional capital for the material risks and the internal methodologies for quantifying capital;
 
the capital plan in both normal and stress situations;
 
the capital contingency plan;
 
the internal assessment of capital adequacy;
 
the independent validation of ICAAP processes and models.
 
Additionally, the conclusions of and points of attention raised by auditors on capital management processes are submitted to the Board of Directors.
 
At the executive level, the Superior Risk Policy Committee (CSRisc) is responsible for approving risk assessment and capital calculation methodologies, as well as reviewing, monitoring and recommending capital-related documents and topics to the Board of Directors.  As for the Commissions and Committees governance, Itaú Unibanco has a dedicated structure for capital management, which consolidates information and coordinates related processes, all of which subject to verification by the independent validation, internal controls and audit areas.
 
The capital plan is consistent with the Itaú Unibanco’s strategic plan, and is aimed at ensuring the maintenance of an adequate and sustainable capital level, taking into account analyses of the economic, competitive and political environments, besides other external factors.  The capital plan comprises the following:
 
 
Short and long-term capital goals and projections of Itaú Unibanco, under normal and stress scenarios, according to the Board of Directors’ guidelines;
 
Main sources of capital;
 
Contingency capital plan, containing actions to be taken in case of a potential capital deficiency.
 
During its development, at least the following is considered:
 
 
Analysis of the threats and opportunities related to the economic and business environment;
 
Projections about balance sheets and income;
 
Targets for growth and/or market share;
 
Segments targeted by the institution and their related products;
 
Profit sharing policy and its impacts on capital.
 
As part of the capital plan, stress tests are applied, considering severe events, aiming at finding potential capital shortages.  The stress scenarios are approved by the Board of Directors and their impacts on capital are considered for devising the strategy, business positioning and capital.
 
Complementary to the capital assessment for Pillar 1 risks, Itaú Unibanco have been developing mechanisms for identifying and analyzing the materiality of other risks faced by the institution, besides methodologies for assessing and quantifying the need for additional capital to cover them.
 
In order to provide the necessary information for supporting decision taking by the Executives and the Board of Directors, management reports are prepared and presented at Commissions and Committees, informing about Itau Unibanco’s capital adequacy, as well as about the projections of future capital levels in normal and stress situations.

2.2
Capital Requirements in Place and in Progress
 
Itaú Unibanco’s minimum capital requirements follow the set of resolutions1 and circulars disclosed by the Central Bank of Brazil (BACEN) that implemented, in Brazil, the global capital requirement standards known as Basel III.  They are expressed as ratios of the capital available stated by the Referential Equity (PR), or Total Capital, composed of the Tier I Capital (which comprises the Common Equity and Additional Tier 1 Capital) and Tier II Capital, and the risk-weighted assets, or RWA.
 
The Total Capital, Tier 1 Capital and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratios were calculated on a consolidated basis, applied to the financial institutions included in Financial Conglomerate, up to December 31, 2014.  Beginning January 1, 2015, Financial Conglomerate was replaced by the Prudential Conglomerate2, which comprises not only financial institutions but also collective financing plans (“consórcios”), payment entities, factoring companies or companies that directly or indirectly assume credit risk, and investment funds in which the conglomerate retains substantially all risks and rewards.  The report based on the Prudential Conglomerate will be published on March 31, 2015.
 
For purposes of calculating these minimum capital requirements, the total RWA is determined as the sum of the risk-weighted asset amounts for credit risk, market risk, and operational risk.  Itaú Unibanco uses the standardized approaches to calculate these risk-weighted asset amounts described in paragraph 2.4 Risk-weighted Assets.
 
The minimum Total Capital requirement corresponds to 11 percent from October 1, 2013 to December 31, 2015, decreasing gradually to 8 percent through January 1, 2019.
 
As a consideration, BACEN standards establish an Additional Tier 1 Capital, which corresponds to the combination of the conservation (fixed) and countercyclical (variable) capital buffers, which, together with the requirements mentioned in the paragraph above, increase the requirements for long-term capital.
 
The standards also redefined new requirements to qualify instruments eligible for Tier 1 or Tier 2 Capital.  Additionally, establishes a gradual reduction of the eligibility of the instrument inventory issued pursuant to CMN Resolution 3,444.
 
The Basel III implementation calendar was set by the BACEN as follows.

(1) In 2016, the Common Equity Tier 1 Upper Limit is equal to the Lower Limit, as set by the Central Bank Circular No. 3741 of 29 December 2014.  In other years, it is considered the maximum.
 
The compliance of BACEN to the standards recommended by the Basel Committee was assessed at the end of 2013, under the Regulatory Consistency Assessment Programme (RCAP).  The rules effective in Brazil were considered compliant—pursuant to the BIS, Brazil is a compliant jurisdiction3 — i.e., the capital standards established in Brazil are also consistent with the internationally accepted minimum requirements.  The pointed out discrepancies were considered immaterial.
 

 

1 The standards that implemented the Basel III rules in Brazil were disclosed on March 1, 2013 through Resolutions No. 4,192 to No. 4,195 of the National Monetary Council (CMN) (Resolution No. 4,195 was revoked by Resolution No. 4,280 of December 31, 2013), together with 15 Circulars published by BACEN on March 4, 2013, as amended.

Minimum capital requirement for Insurance
 
The National Private Insurance Council (CNSP) enacted on February 18, 2013 CNSP Resolutions Nos. 280 (which repeals Circular No. 411), 283, and 284.  On September 25, 2014, the calculation requirements were changed by Resolution No. 316 of the National Council of Private Insurance (CNSP) (which revoked CNSP Resolutions No. 263, 269 and 302).  These rules address the regulatory capital rules required for the authorization and operation of life insurance, pension and capitalization companies and the rules for the allocation of capital arising from the underwriting and operational risk.
 
CNSP Resolution No. 228 of December 6, 2010, which addresses the criteria to establish additional capital based on the credit risk of the supervised entities, took effect in January 2011.
 
In addition to the underwriting, credit and operational risks, CNSP Resolution No. 317 was disclosed in December 2014, regulating the market risk capital.
 
2.3
Capital Composition
 
The PR, used to monitor compliance with the operational limits imposed by BACEN, is the sum of Tier I and Tier II, where:
 
 
Tier I:  comprises the Common Equity Tier I, based on the social capital, selected reserves and retained earnings, net from deductions and prudential adjustments, as well as the Additional Tier I Capital;
 
Tier II:  comprises as eligible instruments, primarily, subordinated debts, subject to prudential limits.
 
The table below presents the composition of the referential equity and its components Common Equity Tier I, Additional Tier I Capital and Tier II Capital, taking into consideration their respective deductions and prudential adjustments, as per Resolutions mentioned.

Risk-Weighted Asset (RWA)
 
According to CMN Resolutions Nos. 4,193 and 4,281, for assessing the minimum capital requirements, the RWA can be found by adding the portions, as shown below:
 
 
 
RWACPAD = portion relating to exposures to credit risk;
 
RWACAM = portion relating the exposures in gold, foreign exchange rate and assets subject to foreign exchange rate variations;
 
RWAJUR = portion relating to exposures subjects to variations of interest rates, interest coupons and coupon rates and classified in the Trading Portfolio;
 
RWACOM = portion relating to exposures subjects to variations in commodity prices;
 
RWAACS = portion relating to exposures subjects to variations in equities prices and classified in the Trading Portfolio;
 
RWAOPAD = portion relating to the calculation of operational risk capital requirements.
 
The portions mentioned above were calculated according to the procedures disclosed by BACEN, through Circulars and Circular Letters, and by CMN, through Resolutions.
 
The table below presents the consolidated evolution of RWA composition of Itaú Unibanco.  Each of the portions mentioned above will be presented in detail in the topics below.

Risk-Weighted Assets for Operational Risk (RWAOPAD)
 
Circular No. 3,640, in effect since October 2013, establishes new criteria for determining the portion of risk-weighted assets related to the capital required for operational risk (RWAOPAD) by means of a standardized approach.  In January 2014, Circular No. 3,675 became effective, supplementing the above mentioned Circular and introducing some amendments, such as:  the possibility of requiring the use of a basic indicator in the case of correction or improvement of the Standardized Approach and revocation of the provision that required capital allocation for the CONEF portion.
 
Additionally, the calculation, on a semiannual basis, of the exposure of RWAOPAD relating to June 30th and December 31st is maintained.

Capital Adequacy
 
Itaú Unibanco, through the ICAAP, assesses the adequacy of capital to face the incurred risks.  The capital is composed by regulatory capital for credit, market and operational risks and by the necessary capital to face other risks.
 
In order to ensure the robustness of Itaú Unibanco and the availability of capital to support business growth, Itaú Unibanco maintains PR levels above the minimum levels, according to the Basel ratio, Common Equity Tier I, Additional Tier I Capital and Tier II.
 
On December 31, 2014, the PR reached R$ 129,790 million, an increase of R$ 5,066 million compared to September 30th, 2014.

On December 31, 2014, the BIS ratio was 16.9%, an increase of 0.3 percentage point compared to the previous quarter.  The increase on Basel ratio is mainly due to generating of results, with a 4.1% increase in the Referential Equity accompanied by a low growth of total risk weighted exposure (RWA) which was 2.2% higher than in September 30, 2014.
 
The risk-weighted assets for credit risk (RWACPAD) reached R $ 706,081 million on December 31, 2014, an increase of 2.7% in the quarter, mainly due to the increase in the credit portfolio.
 
The fixed asset ratio shows the percentage at which the PR is committed to permanent assets.  Itaú Unibanco is within the maximum limit of 50% of the Adjusted PR, as established by BACEN.

To assess the adequacy of Itaú Unibanco’s capital, regardless of the regulatory requirements, an internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP) is in place.
 
The first stage of ICAAP consists of identifying and analyzing the materiality of the risks to which Itaú Unibanco is exposed.  Itaú Unibanco’s risk identification process is as follows:  (i) map any and all risks that might exist within the institution, taking into account its complexity, its business models, and its social and economic environment and analyzing the materiality, taking into account the initial mapping, of the risks identified under the structured approach and transparent assessment criteria.
 
Once the material risks are identified, the next stage consists of conducting an individual assessment of the need for additional capital to cover the risk.  For risks that capital needs are identified, internal methodologies are developed to quantify the capital required to protect the institution from any unexpected losses that could arise if such risks materialize.  As for those risks with some type of regulatory capital requirement (credit risk, trading book market risk, and operational risk), the adequacy of the required capital level to determine if the regulatory capital levels are adequate to cover all our exposures.
 
To ensure that the institution has an adequate, sustainable level of capitalization, in light of (i) the previously identified material risks, (ii) our business strategy, and (ii) the economic environment, it is also in place, under the ICAAP, a capital planning process.  Under this process, capital projections are prepared for the conglomerate, both in common baseline and stress scenarios, aimed at providing inputs to Senior Management and the Board of Directors on capital management.
 
Itaú Unibanco also has a capital contingency plan for cases where the sources of capital prove to be unfeasible or inadequate, or for cases where unforeseen events could affect our capital adequacy.  The capital contingency plan comprises a set of actions that would allow us to increase our capitalization levels, if required.
 
Finally, to complete all the steps above, our capital adequacy is assessed by comparing it with the total capital required to cover all material risks, obtained using internal methodologies.  This process is conducted annually and generates a report, which is submitted to the BACEN.
 
The output of the latest ICAAP conducted for December 2013, indicates that Itaú Unibanco not only has adequate capital to cover all material risks but also has a high capital buffer, thus ensuring the institution’s financial soundness.

Investments in other entities
 
4.1
Investments in other entities not classified in the trading book
 
The financial statements of Itaú Unibanco and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, as established by Brazilian Corporate Law, together with National Monetary Council, BACEN, and Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) regulations, in the latter case when such regulations are not inconsistent with BACEN regulations.
 
The permanent interests held in other entities, except those measured at book value (equity method of accounting), which we intend to hold for a long term, are classified in Permanent Assets and measured at their acquisition cost (cost method).  Investments measured under the cost method are stated at their historical amount, i.e., the price the company paid to acquire them.  The investor does not account for the profits or losses of an investee, except when related to the dividends based on profits obtained, when distributed.
 
Investments in other companies which there is no intention to hold for a long term are classified as Securities and, based on the designation defined pursuant to Management strategies, they are recognized at fair value, in other comprehensive income.
 
In accordance with the qualitative characteristics of useful financial information, Itaú Unibanco substantially applies its policies on a systematic basis, thus ensuring the consistency and comparability of its information, except when otherwise required by regulators, under amended regulations.
 
In 2014 there were no significant amendments to policies related to equity interests.
 
For further information on Itaú Unibanco’s accounting policies, please see Note 4 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements, that can be found on the website www.itau-unibanco.com.br/ri.
 
The following is the amount of investments not classified in the trading book and comprises the investments recognized in permanent assets, except the investments valued using the equity method, and the stock investments, classified as Securities not classified in the trading book.

Risk Management – Pillar 3

Credit Risk
 
5.1
Framework and Treatment
 
Credit risk is the possibility of losses associated with:  failure by a borrower, issuer or counterparty to fulfill their respective financial obligations as defined in the contracts; value loss of credit agreements resulting from deterioration of the borrower’s issuer’s or counterparty’s credit rating; reduction of profits or income; benefits granted upon subsequent renegotiations; or debt recovery costs.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s credit risk management and control structure establishes operational limits, risk mitigation mechanisms and processes, and instruments to measure, monitor and control risk that can quantify the credit risk inherent to all products, portfolio concentrations and the impacts of potential changes in the economic environment.  The Bank’s portfolio, policies and strategies are continuously monitored to ensure compliance with the rules and laws in effect in each country.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s credit risk management is the primary responsibility of all Business Areas and is aimed at maintaining the quality of the credit portfolio at levels that are consistent with the institution’s risk appetite, for each market segment in which it operates.  The Business Areas have to:
 
 
Follow up and closely monitor the portfolios under their responsibility;
 
Grant credit in accordance to the authority levels, market conditions, macroeconomic prospects, changes in markets and products and the effects of sector and geographic concentrations;
 
Manage credit risk adopting actions that provide sustainability to its business.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s credit policy is based on internal factors, such as:  client rating criteria, performance and evolution of the portfolio, default levels, return rates, and the allocated economic capital; and on external factors, related to the economic environment, interest rates, market default indicators, inflation and changes in consumption.
 
Itaú Unibanco has a structured process to maintain a diversified portfolio, which is considered appropriate by the institution.  The concentrations are monitored continuously for economic sectors, and largest debtors, allowing preventive measures to be taken to avoid the violation of the established limits.
 
The credit risk management governance is conducted through collegiate bodies that are subordinated to the Board of Directors or the executive structure of Itaú Unibanco, and act primarily by assessing the competitive market conditions, setting the credit limits for the institution, reviewing control practices and policies and approving the actions at the respective authority levels.  The risk communication and reporting process, including disclosure of institutional policies on credit risk management, are responsibility of this structure.
 
The credit risk control is carried out by an independent executive area segregated from the business units, as required by the current regulation.  Among others, the mains responsibilities of the credit risk control area are to:
 
 
Monitor and control the performance of the credit portfolios in view of the limits approved by senior management;
 
Conduct the centralized control of the credit risk segregated from the business units;
 
Manage the process of preparation, review and approval of institutional policies of credit risk, meeting the regulatory guidelines;
 
Monitor the adequacy of the level of the Referential Equity with respect to the credit risk assumed;
 
Assess the credit risk of the operations at the authority levels appointed by the credit commissions.
 
The policies and products’ evaluation process enables the Itaú Unibanco to identify potential risks in order to ensure that credit decisions make sense from an economic and risk perspective.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s centralized process for approving credit policies and validating models ensures the synchronization of credit actions.
 
The credit rating process for wholesale transactions is based on information such as the economic and financial condition of the counterparty, its cash-generating capabilities, the economic group to which it belongs, the current and prospective situation of the economic sector in which it operates.  Credit proposals are analyzed on a case-by-case basis through the approval governance.
 
With respect to retail transactions (individuals, small and medium companies), ratings are assigned based on statistical application and behavior score models.  Decisions are met based on continuously monitored scoring models.  Extraordinarily, an individual analysis of specific cases may be performed, in which case credit approval follows the applicable authority levels.

Itaú Unibanco
 
 

 
 
Risk Management – Pillar 3

 
 
Additionally, the risk assessment of both the retail segments and the wholesale segment incorporate client debts both to Itaú and the market.
 
Itaú Unibanco rates government securities and other debt instruments according to their credit quality with the purpose of managing the exposures.
 
Itaú Unibanco strictly controls credit exposure to clients and counterparties, acting on occasional limit breaches.  In this sense, contractual covenants may be used, such as the right to demand early payment or require of additional collateral.
 
Itaú Unibanco counts on a specific structure and processes aimed at ensuring that the country risk is managed and controlled, including:  (i) country risk governance; (ii) country ratings; (iii) credit limits for countries; (iv) limits monitoring; and (v) actions for limit breaches.
 
In line with the principles of CMN Resolution 3,721, Itaú Unibanco’s credit risk management structure and institutional policy are approved by its Board of Directors, applicable to all companies and subsidiaries in Brazil and abroad.
 
The guidelines of the institutional credit risk management policy can be accessed at http://www.itau-unibanco.com/ri, under Corporate Governance, Regulations and Policies, Public Access Report – Credit Risk.

Allowance for Loan Losses
 
In order to be hedged against losses arising from loan operations, Itaú Unibanco takes into consideration all the aspects that determine the client’s credit risk to determine the provision level that is appropriate to the risk incurred in each operation.  For each operation, the assessment and the client or economic group rating, the operation rating, and the possible existence of past due amounts are taken into account and the volume of the regulatory provision is determined.
 
Itaú Unibanco recognizes an allowance in addition to that minimum required by BACEN, aiming at ensuring an allowance level compatible with the expected loss, according to internal models credit risk measurement.  This allowance is usually quantified in view of the past performance of loan portfolios, based on exposure, probabilities of default and expected recovery in the event of default, of transactions.

Risk Management – Pillar 3

 
 
Mitigating Instruments
 
Itaú Unibanco uses guarantees aiming at increasing resiliencies in operations with credit risk.  The using guarantees can be personal guarantees, secured guarantees, legal structures with mitigating power and netting arrangements.  There are normative and institutional credit policies governing the use of collateral.
 
To be considered as risk reduction instrument, the guarantees need to comply with requirements and determinations of the regulations that govern the guarantees, whether internal or external and are legally valid (effective), enforceable and regularly evaluated.
 
The collaterals used can generate risk mitigation.  The impact of asset assignment collaterals and purchased credit derivative hedges results from the collateral replacement, where a borrower’s risk parameters are replaced by the guarantor’s risk parameters.  When used for managerial purposes, in the case of collateral assets and the legal structures with mitigation capabilities and offsetting agreements, risk mitigation in made based on methodologies jointly established and approved by the business units in charge of credit risk management and the centralized credit risk control department.
 
These methodologies take into consideration factors related to the legal enforceability of collaterals, the necessary costs of enforcing them, and the expected recoverable amount, taking into consideration market volatility and liquidity.
 
Itaú Unibanco also uses credit derivatives, such as single name CDS, to mitigate the credit risk of its portfolios of securities.  These instruments are priced based on models that use the fair value of market inputs, such as credit spreads, recovery rates, correlations and interest rates.
 
The credit limits are continuously monitored and changed according to client behavior.  Thus, the potential loss values represent a fraction of the amount available.
 
The table below presents the total amount mitigated by risk mitigating instruments, as defined in BACEN Circular No. 3,644, 3rd paragraph.
 
It is worth noting that purchase and sale commitments and residential real estate or first mortgage-backed loan operations are considered when determining risk weights assets.

Risk Management – Pillar 3

 
Counterparty Credit Risk
 
Itaú Unibanco sees the counterparty credit risk as a possibility of noncompliance, by a given counterparty, with obligations related to the settlement of transactions that involve the trading of financial assets with a bilateral risk, including those related to the settlement of derivative financial instruments.  Additionally, Itaú Unibanco includes the risk of deterioration of the credit quality of the counterparty in its risk assessment.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s structure for managing, monitoring and controlling the counterparty credit risk arising from derivative financial instruments and other complex financial instruments, as well as from operations with variable indexes, is inserted in the credit risk management structure.
 
From this quarter Itaú Unibanco enhanced its dissemination of information on exposures subject to counterparty risk credit.  The table below presents the notional value of the contracts subject to the counterparty credit risk.  According to Circular No. 3,644, for the calculation of the net global exposure to the counterparty credit risk arising from operations with derivative financial instruments, the application of the Future Potential Exposure Factor (FEPF) is considered.  In the case of unsettled operations, the application of the Unsettled Operation Credit Conversion Factor (FCL) is considered.  The application of these factors reduces the final exposure of the operations subject to the counterparty credit risk.

Acquisitions, Sale or Transfer of Financial Assets
 
The acquisition of financial assets follows the same policies and the same credit governance established for the portfolios originated at Itaú Unibanco, where decision-making is based on the objective assessment of the borrowers’ credit risk.  Financial asset acquisitions can aim at increasing loan portfolio diversification or meeting the clients’ demands for liquidity.  The purpose of the sale and transfer of financial assets is to meet investor demand for credit assets and be used as a portfolio credit risk management instrument.
 
Credit assignments (transfers of receivables) carried out through December 2011 were recorded in accordance with current regulation together with income recognition at the time of the assignment, regardless of the risks and benefits being retained or not.
 
Since beginning January 2012, as provided for by CMN Resolution No. 3,533 and supplementary regulation, accounting records take into consideration the retention or non-retention of risks and benefits on sale or transfers of financial assets.

Operations of Securitization
 
Itaú Unibanco’s portfolio includes securities arising from securitization processes.  The portfolio is made up of Securitized Real Estate Loans (CRI), quotas of Credit Rights Investment Funds (FIDC) and Agribusiness Receivables Certificate (CRA).
 
The CRIs are backed by real estate loans and predominantly are not subordinated.  The quotas of FIDCs are usually senior and backed by receivables, such as trade notes, promissory notes.  The CRAs are backed by receivables linked to agribusiness.
 
Itaú Unibanco classifies securities arising from securitization processes based on the governance of products determined, and the credit is approved at the proper authority levels.  The balances of these operations are presented below.

Credit Derivatives
 
Itaú Unibanco buys and sells credit protection mainly related to securities of the Brazilian government and securities of Brazilian listed companies in order to meet the needs of its customers.  When Itaú Unibanco sells contracts for credit protection, the exposure for a given reference entity may be partially or totally offset by a credit protection purchase contract of another counterparty for the same reference entity or similar entity.  The credit derivatives for which Itaú Unibanco is protection seller are credit default swap (CDS) and total return swap (TRS).
 
CDS is credit derivative in which, upon a credit event related to the reference entity pursuant to the terms of the contract, the protection buyer is entitled to receive, from the protection seller, the amount equivalent to the difference between the face value of the CDS contract and the fair value of the liability on the date the contract was settled, also known as the recovered amount.  The protection buyer does not need to hold the debt instrument of the reference entity for it to receive the amounts due pursuant to the CDS contract terms when a credit event occurs.
 
TRS is a transaction in which a party swaps the total return of a reference entity or of a basket of assets for regular cash flows, usually interest and a guarantee against capital loss.  In a TRS contract, the parties do not transfer the ownership of the assets.
 
The maximum potential loss that may be incurred with the credit derivative is based on the notional amount of the derivative.  Itaú Unibanco believes that, based on its historical experience, the maximum potential loss does not represent the actual level of loss.  It happens because, when a loss event occurs, the amount of maximum potential loss should be reduced from the notional amount by the recoverable amount.
 
The credit derivatives sold are not covered by guarantees, and during this period, Itaú Unibanco has not incurred any loss related to credit derivative contracts.
 
The table below shows the nominal value of purchased credit derivatives that are identical to those that Itaú Unibanco acts as seller of protection underlying values.

Market Risk
 
6.1
Framework and Treatment
 
Market risk is the possibility of losses resulting from fluctuations in the market values of positions held by a financial institution, usually the risks caused by variations in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, price indexes, equity and commodity prices, along with various indexes on these risk factors.
 
At Itaú Unibanco, market risk management is the process by which management monitors and controls risk of variations in the financial instruments, due to market movements, while aiming to optimize the risk-return ratio through an adequate limits structure, alerts, effective risk management models and related management tools.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s institutional policies and general market risk management framework are in line with the principles of CMN Resolution No. 3,464, and subsequent amendments.  These principles guide the institution’s approach to market risk control and management across all business units and legal entities of Itaú Unibanco.
 
The document that details the market risk control institutional policy is on the Investor Relations website www.itauunibanco.com/ri, in the route:  Corporate Governance, Rules and Policies, Public Access Report - Market Risk.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s market risk management strategy is aimed at balancing corporate business goals, taking into account, among other things:
 
 
Political, economic and market conditions;
 
The market risk profile of the portfolio; and
 
Expertise within the group to support operations in specific markets.
 
Itaú Unibanco’s market risk management framework is subject to the governance and hierarchy of committees, with specific limits assigned to different levels and classes of market risk.  These range covers from aggregated risk indicators at the portfolio level, to more granular limits at the individual desk level, and are aim to improve the process of risk monitoring and understanding as well as prevent risk concentration.  Limits and alerts are calibrated based on projections of future balance sheets, stockholders’ equity, liquidity, complexity and market volatility and the Itaú Unibanco’s risk appetite.  Limits are monitored on a daily basis, with compliance reported to and discussed at the relevant board and management Committees.  In addition, the daily risk reports used by the business and control areas are distributed to the executives officers.
 
The structure of limits and alerts follows Board of Directors guidelines.  These are approved by the CSRisc, after endorsement by the (Superior Institutional Treasury Committee) CSTI.  The process of setting these limit levels follows the governance approved by Itaú Unibanco´s financial conglomerate internal policies.  This structure of limits and alerts promotes the effectiveness and coverage of control and is reviewed at least annually.
 
The key principles underlying Itaú Unibanco’s market risk control structure are as follows:
 
 
Provide visibility and comfort for all senior management levels that market risks assumed must be in line with our risk-return objectives;
 
Provide disciplined and informed dialogue of the overall market risk profile and its evolution over time;
 
There must be transparency as to how the business works to optimize results;
 
The market risk control structure must provide early warning mechanisms to facilitate effective risk management, without obstructing the business objectives; and
 
Concentration of risks must be monitored and avoided.
 
Market risk management and control process is subject to periodic reviews, to ensure it reflects alignment with best market practices, and continuous improvement over time.
 
Market risk control is managed by a group that is independent from the different business units and is responsible for performing the daily activities of risk measurement, evaluation, analysis and reporting to relevant individuals and units, during normal and stress scenarios, according to established governance requirements.  They also monitor actions taken to readjust positions and/or levels of risk.  This area is also involved in the approval process of new financial products.  In addition, there is a structured process of communication and information flow, which provides information to the Superior Committees and ensures compliance with the requirements of Brazilian and foreign regulatory agencies.
 
Itaú Unibanco hedges transactions with clients and proprietary positions, including its foreign investments, in order to mitigate risk arising from fluctuations in market risk factors and maintain the positions on the breaching limits.  Derivatives are commonly used for these hedging activities.  When these transactions are classified as hedges for accounting purposes, specific supporting documentation is provided, including ongoing follow-up of hedge effectiveness (retrospective and prospective) and other changes in the accounting process.  The accounting and managerial hedging procedures are governed by the institutional polices of Itaú Unibanco.

Risk Management – Pillar 3

 
 
Hedge accounting considerations are presented in detail in explanatory notes of the Financial Statements.
 
Market risk framework categorizes transactions as part of either the Banking Book or the Trading Book, in accordance with general criteria established by CMN Resolution No. 3,464 and BACEN circular No. 3,354.
 
Trading Book is composed of all trades with financial and commodity instruments (including derivatives) undertaken with the intention of trading them.
 
Banking Book is predominantly characterized by portfolios originated from the banking business and operations related to the management of the institution’s balance sheet.  As a general rule, this book’s portfolios are intended to be either held to maturity, or sold in the medium and in the long run.
 
Market risk exposures inherent in various financial instruments, including derivatives, are composed of various risk factors.  A risk factor refers to a market parameter whose variation impacts a position’s valuation.  The main risk factors measured by Itaú Unibanco are as follow:
 
 
Interest rates:  the risk of losses from transactions subject to interest rates variation;
 
Other foreign interest rates:  the risk of losses from transactions subject to foreign interest rates variations;
 
FX Rates:  the risk of losses from positions subject to foreign exchange rate variation (e.g., foreign currency positions);
 
Brazilian inflation indexes:  the risk of losses from transactions subject to the variations in inflation-linked;
 
Equities and Commodities:  the risk of losses from transactions subject to equity or commodities price variations.
 
The CMN has regulations establishing the segregation of market risk exposure at a minimum into the following categories:  interest rates, FX rates, equities and commodities.  Brazilian inflation indexes are treated as a group of risk indicators and receive the same treatment of the others risk indicators, such as interest rates and FX rates and follows the governance and risk limits framework adopted by Itaú Unibanco for market risk management.
 
Market risk is analyzed based on the following key metrics:
 
 
Value at Risk:  a statistical metric that quantifies the maximum potential economic loss expected in normal market conditions, considering a defined holding period and confidence level;
 
Losses in Stress Scenarios (Stress Testing):  a simulation technique to evaluate the impact, in the assets, liabilities and derivatives of the portfolio, of various risk factors in extreme market situations (based on prospective and historic scenarios);
 
Stop Loss:  metrics that trigger a management review of positions, if the accumulated losses in a given period reach specified levels;
 
Concentration:  cumulative exposure of certain financial instrument or risk factor calculated at market value ("MtM - Mark to Market"); and
 
Stressed VaR:  statistical metric derived from VaR calculation, aimed at capturing the biggest risk in simulations of the current portfolio, taking into consideration the observable returns in historical scenarios of extreme volatility.
 
In addition to the risk metrics described above, sensitivity and loss control measures are also analyzed.  They include:
 
 
Gap Analysis:  accumulated exposure of the cash flows by risk factor, which are marked-to-market and positioned by settlement dates;
 
Sensitivity (DV01 – Delta Variation Risk):  impact on the market value of cash flows when a 1 basis point change is applied to current interest rates or on the index rates;
 
Sensitivities to Various Risk Factors (Greeks):  partial derivatives of a portfolio of options on the prices of the underlying assets, implied volatilities, interest rates and time.

Portfolio Analysis
 
Interest rate risk in the non-trading book
 
Interest rate risk corresponds to the potential loss associated with changes in market interest on index, maturity and investment and funding mismatches.  The interest rate risk management process of transactions classified in the non-trading book is consistent with the committee governance and hierarchy, and the limits approved for risk market management.  A mark-to-market methodology is adopted for the different products by calculating the sensitivity to the changes in interest rates, the value at risk (VaR), and stress tests are conducted to the entire book, as established in Itaú Unibanco’s institutional policies.
 
In treating the loan portfolios with material early settlements, the original maturities of the transactions are adjusted for the monthly revisions of their parameters, estimated from their historic bases, which accelerate the decrease of the originally contracted payment flows to better reflect the expected client behavior.
 
The product balances without a defined maturity, such as cash deposits and savings accounts, are separated into core and noncore portions, pursuant to statistical studies that analyze their historical and seasonal behaviors.  The core portion is distributed over time, thus generating an exposure to changes in interest rates, pursuant to internally approved methodologies.
 
The table below shows the sensitivity of the amount of the Banking Portfolio´s positions to changes in interest rate curves, using the methodology and stress scenarios adopted to manage this book’s risks at Itaú Unibanco for the fourth quarter of 2014.

In order to measure these sensitivities, the following scenarios are used:
 
 
Scenario I:  Shocks of 1 base point in interest rates and associated indexes;
 
Scenario II:  Shocks of 25 percent in interest fixed rates, currency coupon, inflation, interest rate indexes, both for growth and fall, considering the largest resulting losses per risk factor;
 
Scenario III:  Shocks of 50 percent in interest fixed rates, currency coupon, inflation, interest rate indexes, both for growth and fall, considering the largest resulting losses per risk factor.
 
As required by CVM Regulatory Instruction 475, Itaú Unibanco conducts sensitivity analysis against exceptional scenarios for market risk factors considered relevant.  The results can be found at Note No. 7j of the Financial Statements – BRGAAP, on the website www.itau-unibanco.com.br/ri.

VaR – Consolidated Itaú Unibanco
 
We improved our internal methodology to calculate Consolidated VaR, migrating from the “parametric” approach to a “historical simulation” approach (except for Foreign Units).  This new methodology carries out the full repricing of all positions, using the real historical distribution of assets.
 
The table below shows the Consolidated Total VaR, comprising both the Banking and Trading Book of Itaú Unibanco, and its subsidiaries abroad, showing where there are higher concentrations of market risk (subsidiaries abroad:  Itaú BBA International PLC, Banco Itaú Argentina S.A., Banco Itaú Chile S.A., Banco Itaú Uruguay S.A., Banco Itaú Paraguay S.A. and Itaú BBA Colombia S.A. - Corporación Financiera).

Itaú Unibanco maintained its conservative and diversification management style, having operated within low limits in relation to its capital through the period.  The Total Average VaR for the quarter remained below 1% of Itaú Unibanco’s consolidated stockholders’ equity.
 
The observed increase in Total VaR, compared to the previous quarter, is due to an increase in the market volatility levels and changes of position which together resulted in a change in the diversification effect.

VaR - Foreign Units
 
Itaú Unibanco’s foreign units are financial institutions based in different countries that operate with local treasuries, with market risk exposures monitored by local risk control groups.  These local treasury and risk control groups are subject to oversight by the equivalent structures of Itaú Unibanco at Group level.  The foreign units are Itaú BBA International, Banco Itaú Argentina, Banco Itaú Chile, Banco Itaú Uruguai, Banco Itaú Paraguai and Itaú BBA Colombia S.A. Corporación Financiera.
 
The consolidated exposure of market risk of the foreign units in the fourth quarter, when compared to the previous one, reflected an increase as can be seen in the table below.
 
The Total consolidated VaR of all the foreign units represents less than 1% of Itaú Unibanco’s net equity.

Backtesting
 
The effectiveness of the VaR model is validated by the use of backtesting techniques that compare hypothetic daily results with the estimated daily VaR.  The number of exceptions to the VaR pre-established limits should be consistent, within an acceptable margin, with the hypothesis of 99% confidence intervals (i.e., there is a 1% probability that financial losses could be greater than the losses estimated by the model), considering a range of 250 business days (ending on December 31, 2014).  The backtesting analysis presented below takes into consideration the ranges suggested by the Basel document “Supervisory Framework for the use of backtesting in conjunction with the internal models approach to market risk capital requirements.”  The ranges are divided into:
 
 
Green (0 to 4 exceptions):  corresponds to backtesting results that do not suggest any problems with the quality or accuracy of the models adopted;
 
Yellow (5 to 9 exceptions):  refers to an intermediate range group, which indicates the need to pay attention and/or monitoring and may indicate the need of reviewing the model; and

The exposure graph below illustrates the reliability of risk measures generated from the models used by Itaú Unibanco in the Trading Portfolio (International Units are not included in these graph, given the immateriality of amounts involved).

Operational Risk
 
7.1
Framework and Treatment
 
For Itaú Unibanco the operational risk is defined as the possibility of losses arising from failure, deficiency or inadequacy of internal process, people or systems or from external events that affect the achievement of strategic, tactical or operational objectives.  It includes legal risk associated with inadequacy or deficiency in contracts signed by the institution, as well as penalties due to noncompliance with laws and punitive damages to third parties arising from the activities undertaken by the Institution.
 
Itaú Unibanco internally classifies its risk events in:
 
 
Internal fraud;
 
External fraud;
 
Labor demands and deficient security in the workplace;
 
Inadequate practices related to clients, products and services;
 
Damages to own physical assets or assets in use by Itaú Unibanco;
 
Interruption of Itaú Unibanco’s activities;
 
Failures in information technology systems;
 
Failures in the performance, compliance with deadlines and management of activities at Itaú Unibanco.
 
In line with the principles of the CMN Resolution 3,380 and BACEN Circular 3,647, Itaú Unibanco has an operational risk management structure and institutional policy, which are annually approved by the Board of Directors and are applicable to its local and foreign companies and subsidiaries.
 
Operational risk management is the process composed of operational risk management and control activities, which objective is to support the institution in decision making processes, always searching for the proper identification and assessment of risks, the creation of value for stockholders and the protection of Itaú Unibanco’s assets and image.
 
Itaú Unibanco has a governance process that is structured through forums and committees that are subordinated to the Superior Audit and Operational Risk Management Committee (CSAGRO) and CSRisc, which, in turn, report to the Board of Directors, and by well-defined roles and responsibilities in order to reinforce the segregation of the business and management and control activities, ensuring independence between the areas and, consequently, well-balanced decisions with respect to risks.  This is reflected in the risk management process carried out on a decentralized basis under the responsibility of the business areas and by a centralized control carried out by the internal control, compliance and operational risk department by means of methodologies, training and certification of the control environment on an independent basis and providing tools for monitoring them.
 
The management structure seeks to identify, assess, mitigate, monitor and report the operational risk for the purpose of ensuring the quality of the control environment in accordance with the internal guidelines and regulation in effect.
 
The executive areas managers use corporate methodologies that are built and made available by the internal control, compliance and operational risk department.  Among the methodologies and tools used are the self-evaluation and the map of the organization’s prioritized risks, the approval of processes and products, the monitoring of key risk indicators that and the database of operational losses.  Therefore, Itaú Unibanco’s operational risk framework ensures a conceptual exclusive basis for the management of processes, systems, projects and new products and services.
 
Within the governance of the management process, there are specific operational risk, internal control and compliance forums where the consolidated reports on risk monitoring, controls, action plans and operational losses are regularly presented to the business area executives.
 
It is worth noting that the dissemination of the risk and control culture to the employees by means of training is an important pillar of the operational risk agenda, aimed at providing a better understanding of the matter and playing a relevant role in its mitigation.
 
A summarized version of the institutional operational risk management policy can be found on the website www.itauunibanco.com.br/ri under Corporate Governance, Regulations and Policies, Public Access Report – Operational Risk.

Crisis Management and Business Continuity
 
The purpose of Itaú Unibanco’s Business Continuity Program is to protect its employees, ensure the continuity of the critical functions of its business lines, safeguard revenue and sustain both a stable financial market in which it operates and the trust of its clients and strategic partners in the provision of services and products.
 
It is composed of procedures for relocating and/ or recovering operations in response to a variety of interruption levels, and can be divided into two key elements:
 
 
Crisis Management:  centralized communication and response processes to manage business interruption events and any other types of threats to the image and reputation of its identity before its employees, clients, strategic partners and regulators.  The structure has a command center that constantly monitors the daily operations, as well as the media channels in which Itaú Unibanco is mentioned.  The success of Crisis Management takes place through the Focal Agent Network, who are the representatives appointed by the business areas and that work in the monitoring of potential problems, resolution of crisis, resumption of business, improvement of processes and search for prevention actions;
 
Business Continuity Plans (PCN):  document with procedures and information, developed, consolidated and maintained available for use during possible incidents, allowing the resumption of critical activities in acceptable terms and conditions.  For the quick and safe resumption of the operations, Itaú Unibanco has established, in its PCN, corporate wide and customized actions for its line of business by means of:
 
Disaster Recovery Plan:  focused on the recovery of its primary data center, ensuring the continuity of the processing of critical systems within minimum pre-established periods;
 
Workplace Contingency Plan:  employees responsible for carrying out critical business functions have alternative facilities to perform their activities in the event the buildings in which they usually work become unavailable.  There is approximately 2,000 contingency dedicated seats that are fully equipped to meet the needs of the business areas in emergency situations.
 
Emergency Plan:  procedures aimed at minimizing the effects of emergency situations that may impact Itaú Unibanco’s facilities, with a preemptive focus;
 
Processes Contingency Plan:  alternatives (Plan B) to carry out the critical processes identified in the business areas.
 
In order to keep the continuity solutions aligned with the business requirements (processes, minimum resources, legal requirements, etc) the Program applies the following tools to understand the organization:
 
 
Business Impact Analysis (BIA):  evaluates the criticality and resumption requirement of the processes that support the delivery of products and services.  Through this analysis the businesses’ resumption priorities are defined.
 
Risk Assessment (RA):  evaluates the processes and the effectiveness of the controls in place to mitigate the inherent risks of interruption as well as to implement actions to the gaps eventually identified in the business;
 
Threats and Vulnerabilities Analysis (AVA):  identification of threats to the locations where Itaú Unibanco buildings are located.  The control’s efficiency is evaluated against the potential threats in order to eventually identify vulnerabilities so that controls are adjusted or implemented to enhance the resilience level of the firm’s critical facilities.

Liquidity Risk
 
8.1
Framework and Treatment
 
Liquidity risk is defined as the likelihood of the institution not being able to effectively honor its expected and unexpected obligations, current and future, including those from guarantees commitment, not affecting its daily operations and not incurring significant losses.
 
The liquidity control risk is carried out by an independent group of the business units and is responsible for determining the composition of the reserve, proposing assumptions for the performance of cash flows in different timeframes, proposing liquidity risk limits in accordance with the group risk appetite, communicating any mismatches, considering liquidity risk on an individual basis in the countries where Itaú Unibanco operates, simulating the behavior of cash flows in stress conditions, assessing and reporting in advance the risks inherent to new products and operations and reporting on the information required by the regulatory agencies.  All activities are subject to assessment by the independent validation, internal controls and audit departments.
 
The liquidity risk measurement has to comprise all financial trades of the companies of Itaú Unibanco, as well as possible contingent and unexpected exposures, such as those derived from settlement services, provision of sureties and guarantees, credit lines contracted and not used.
 
The liquidity policies of management and associated limits are established based on prospective scenarios, reviewed periodically and based on definitions from senior management.
 
The document that details the liquidity risk control institutional policy is on the Investor Relations website www.itau-unibanco.com/ri, in the route:  Corporate Governance, Rules and Policies, Public Access Report - Liquidity Risk.
 
Pursuant to the requirements of CMN Resolutions No. 4,090 and BACEN Circular No. 3,393, Itaú Unibanco makes monthly delivery of its Liquidity Risk Statements (DLR) to BACEN and the following items are regularly prepared and submitted to the senior management for monitoring and decision support:
 
 
Different scenarios for liquidity projections;
 
Contingency plans for crisis situations;
 
Reports and charts to enable monitoring risk positions;
 
Assessment of funding costs and alternatives;
 
Tracking the sort of funding sources through a continuous control of funding sources considering counterparty type, maturity and other aspects.

Other Risks
 
Insurance Risk
 
Products that compose portfolios of insurance companies of Itau Unibanco are related to life and elementary insurance, as well as pension plans and some “capitalização”.  Accordingly, Itaú Unibanco understands that the main risks inherent to these products are:
 
 
Underwriting Risk is the possibility of losses arising from insurance products, pension plans and capitalização that go against company’s expectations, directly or indirectly associated with technical and actuarial bases used for calculating premiums, contributions and technical provisions;
 
Market Risk is the possibility of losses resulting from fluctuations in market values of assets and liabilities that comprise technical actuarial reserves;
 
Credit Risk is the possibility of noncompliance, by a given debtor, with obligations related to the settlement of operations that involve the trading of financial assets of reinsurance;
 
Operational risk is the possibility of the occurrence of losses arising from the failure, deficiency or inadequacy of internal processes, people and systems, or from external events that affect the achievement of the strategic, tactical or operational objectives of the insurance, pension and capitalização operations;
 
Liquidity risk in insurance operations is the possibility of the institution not be able to honor timely its obligations to policyholders and beneficiaries of pension funds due to lack of liquidity of the assets comprising the actuarial technical reserves.
 
In line with good national and international practices and to ensure that risks arising from insurance products, pension plans and capitalização are properly identified, measured, evaluated, reported and approved in relevant forums, Itau Unibanco has a risk management framework, whose guidelines are established in institutional normative, approved by the Board, applicable to companies and subsidiaries at risk from insurance products, pension plans and capitalização, in Brazil and abroad.
 
Risk management process for insurance products, pension plans and capitalização is based on responsibilities defined and distributed between control and business areas, ensuring independence between them.  Itaú Unibanco chose to manage the risks arising from these products on a segregated basis, in accordance with the guidelines established by the institution for each type of risk in order to focus on the specifics of each risk of the insurance, pension and capitalização.
 
As part of the risk management process, there is a structure of collegiate forums whose decisions may be taken to higher commissions, thus ensuring compliance with several regulatory and internal requirements, as well as balanced decisions relative to risks.
 
 
Social and Environmental Risk
 
In business management, Itaú Unibanco continuously takes into consideration the potential of the risk of losses due to exposure to social and environmental events arising from the performance of its activities.  These events arise from the direct operation of Itaú Unibanco which, on its own, has an impact on the environment or human health.  Accordingly, the institution sees the social and environmental risk as the risk of losses arising from social and environmental losses caused by Itaú Unibanco in the development of its activities or by its actions, being its management structured by specific governance and formalized by means of policies.
 
In the governance of social and environmental issues, Itaú Unibanco has the Social and Environmental Risk Committee and its main responsibility is to propose institutional understandings on issues related to the exposure to the social and environmental risk of our activities and operations.  Additionally, the social and environmental risk is managed by the first line of defense in its daily activities with the support of the legal department and social and environmental risk analysis units dedicated to the business.  The business units also have the governance of approval of new products, which assesses the social and environmental risk, thus ensuring compliance with this requirement in all products and processes of the institution.
 
To this end, Itaú Unibanco has been developing many internal processes aimed at the management, control and mitigation of events that may lead to the occurrence of social and environmental risk.  These include, for example, the consideration of the social and environmental in the investments, processes of credit assignment, contracting suppliers, insurance underwriting and acquisition of real estate properties for its own use.  The other lines are responsible for assessing controls and the effectiveness of the risk management processes on an independent basis.

Risk Management – Pillar 3

 
 
Itaú Unibanco consistently seeks to evolve in the management of social and environmental risk, always paying attention to the challenges so as to monitor the changes in and demands of society.  Therefore, among other actions, we have assumed and incorporated into our internal processes a number of national and international voluntary commitments and pacts aimed at integrating social, environmental and governance aspects into our business.  The main ones are the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), the Charter for Human Rights – Ethos, the Equator Principles (EP), the Global Impact, the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program, the Pacto Nacional para Erradicação do Trabalho Escravo (National Pact for Eradicating Slave Labor), among others.  Our efforts to increase the knowledge of the assessment of the social and environmental criteria have been recognized as models in Brazil and abroad, as shown by the recurring presence of the institution in the major sustainability indexes abroad, such as the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, and in Brazil, such as the Corporate Sustainability Index, in addition to the many awards we have received.
 
Reputational Risk
 
Itaú Unibanco defines reputational risk as the risk arising from internal practices, risk events and external factors that may generate a negative perception of the institution among clients, counterparties, stockholders, investors, supervisors, commercial partners, among others, resulting in impacts on the value of the brand and financial losses, in addition to adversely affecting Itaú Unibanco’s capability to maintain existing commercial relations, start new businesses and continue to have access to financing sources.
 
Since the reputational risk directly or indirectly permeates all operations and processes of the institution, Itaú Unibanco’s governance is structured in a way to ensure that potential reputational risks are identified, analyzed and managed still in the initial phases of its operations and the analysis of new products.
 
Itaú Unibanco believes that our reputation is extremely important for us to achieve our long-term goals and this is why we try to align our speech with ethical and transparent practice and work, which is essential to raise the confidence of our stakeholders.
 
For the purpose of avoiding negative impacts on the perception of Itaú Unibanco’s image by the many stakeholders, the treatment given to reputational risk is structured by means of many processes and internal initiatives, which, in turn, are supported by internal policies, and their main purpose is to provide mechanisms for the monitoring, management, control and mitigation of the main reputational risks to which the institution is, or might be, exposed.  Among them are:
 
 
Process for the prevention and fight against the use of Itaú Unibanco in unlawful acts;
 
Crisis management process and business continuity;
 
Processes and guidelines of the governmental and institutional relations;
 
Corporate communication process;
 
Brand management process;
 
Ombudsman offices initiatives and commitment to customer satisfaction;
 
Ethics guidelines and prevention of corruption.
 
Regulatory Risk
 
Regulatory risk is considered at Itaú Unibanco as the risk arising from losses due to fines, sanctions and other penalties applied by regulatory agencies resulting from noncompliance with regulatory requirements.  The regulatory risk is managed through a structured process aimed at identifying changes in the regulatory environment, analyzing their impacts on the departments of the institution and monitoring the implementation of actions directed at adherence to the regulatory requirements.
 
Itaú Unibanco has a structured and consistent flow for addressing rules, covering the stages of recognition, distribution, monitoring and compliance, and all of these processes are established in internal policies.  The structure and flow for addressing the regulatory risk are composed of:  (i) monitoring of legislative bills, notices and public consultation; (ii) recognition of new rules for determining action plans; (iii) relationship with regulators; (iv) monitoring of action plans; and (v) prioritization of risks.
 
Model Risk
 
Itaú Unibanco’s risk management already has proprietary models for risk management that are continuously monitored, and reviewed whenever necessary, aiming at ensuring effectiveness in strategic and business decisions.
 
Model risk is defined as the risk that arises from the models used by Itaú Unibanco not reflecting, on a consistent basis, the relationships of variables of interest, creating results that systematically differ from those observed.  This risk may materialize mainly as a result of methodological inadequacies during its development or the use in different situations from those modeled.
 
45
Itaú Unibanco
 
 

 
 
Risk Management – Pillar 3

 
 
Itaú Unibanco uses the best market practices to manage the model risk to which it is exposed during the entire lifecycle of a model and the stages of which may be classified into four main ones:  development, implementation, validation and use.  The best practices that mark the model risk control at the institution include:  (i) certification of the quality of the database used; (ii) application of a list of essential steps to be taken during the development; (iii) conservatism in judgmental models (iv) use of external benchmarks; (v) approval of results generated in implementation; (vi) independent technical validation; (vii) assessments of use; (viii) assessments of the impact in the use; and (ix) monitoring of performance.
 
Country Risk
 
Country risk is defined as the risk of losses arising from noncompliance with the financial obligations in the terms agreed upon by borrowers, issuers, counterparties or guarantors as a result of actions taken by the government of the country where the borrower, issuer, counterparty or guarantor is located or of political, economic and social events related to that country.
 
Itaú Unibanco is present in many other countries in addition to Brazil.  In addition to the foreign units, we have a relationship with borrowers, issuers, counterparties and guarantors, mainly institutional, from many places in the world, regardless of whether we have a foreign unit in the place where the borrower, issuer, counterparty or guarantor is located.
 
In order to properly address the country risk, Itaú Unibanco has a specific and a process structure aimed at ensuring that the risk is managed and controlled.  These processes include:  (i) country risk governance; (ii) establishment of country ratings; (iii) determination of limits for countries; and (iv) monitoring of limits and treatment of noncompliance.
 
Business and Strategy Risk
 
Itaú Unibanco defines the business and strategy risk as the risk of a negative impact on the results or capital as a consequence of a faulty strategic planning, the making of adverse strategic decisions, the inability of Itaú Unibanco to implement the proper strategic plans and/or changes in its business environment.
 
Since the business and strategic risk can directly affect the creation of value and even the feasibility of the institution, Itaú Unibanco has implemented many mechanisms that ensure that both the business and the strategic decision-making processes follow proper governance standards, have the active participation of executives and the Board of Directors, are based on market, macroeconomic and risk information and are aimed at optimizing the risk-return ratio.
 
In order to treat risk properly, Itaú Unibanco has the governance standards and processes listed below that fully involve the senior management and the risk control and management department in business and strategic decisions so as to ensure that the risk is managed and that the decisions are sustainable.  Therefore, there is:
 
 
Governance that has qualified decision-makers who, at the same time, are properly motivated;
 
Budgeting process with the active participation of the risk control and management department;
 
Process for the assessment of new products before they are sold;
 
Specific structure for the assessment and prospection of mergers and acquisitions.

Enterprise Risk Management and Alignment of Incentives
 
In accordance with the scope and complexity of its operations, Itaú Unibanco established processes for effectively identifying, assessing, monitoring and controlling risks, besides adequately allocating the capital to segments.  In addition, Itaú Unibanco established processes, which enables the Executives and Board of Directors to hold a global view about the institution´s risk exposures, as well as a prospective view about the adequacy of its capital, besides promoting the alignment of incentives.  We describe some of these processes below:
 
Integrated monitoring of risks and capital adequacy
 
Itaú Unibanco has an integrated structure to monitor credit, market, operational, liquidity and reputational risks, as well as the capital adequacy in current and prospective views.  This structure combines complementary risk measurement types, aiming at getting an overall view of the exposures incurred by the institution.  The monitoring is regularly followed up and discussed at the executive and the Board of Directors levels, thus being used as an important risk management oversight tool of Itaú Unibanco.
 
Stress Test
 
The stress test performed by Itaú Unibanco is aimed at evaluating the solvency of the institution in extreme stress situations, as well as identifying areas that are more susceptible to stress impact that may undergo risk mitigation.  It is based on stressed projections of macroeconomic and credit variables, with the purpose of analyzing the added effect on income, capital and liquidity of the institution, consistent with the financial industry’s standards.  The test is performed on the main bank portfolios, simulating the impact on each business area through the calculation of stressed financial statements, under different scenarios approved by the Board of Directors, considering a horizon of two to three years.
 
The test results are reported to the top management and the Board of Directors supporting strategic decisions.
 
Risk-adjusted Compensation
 
The Compensation guidelines of Itaú Unibanco are aimed at attracting, retaining and compensating on merit its collaborators, encouraging prudent risk exposure levels in short-, medium- and long-term strategies, in line with the interests of its shareholders and regulatory authorities and line with the organization’s culture.  The governance structure of compensation and incentive to the prudent risk taking has been consolidating in line with the best international compensation and governance practices.  The Compensation Committee, in accordance with the CMN Resolution No. 3,921 and reporting to the Board of Directors is responsible for setting out the guidelines on models of compensation to collaborators and the policy on compensation of management members of the Conglomerate companies.
 
Compensation in Itaú Unibanco takes into account the strategy of the institution, the general and specific legislation that should be adopted for each business or region of operation, and the adequate risk management over time.  The variable compensation considers the current and potential risks, giving incentive to the achievement of sustainable results and discouraging decisions that involve excess risks.  The calculation of the aggregate and individual amounts considers, among others, long-term sustainable financial bases, adjustments to future payments in view of assumed risks, the results of the institution and/or of the area, when applicable, and the ratio between performance and risks incurred.
 
In accordance with the CMN Resolution No. 3,921, a portion of the variable compensation of statutory officers is paid in stocks (at least 50%) and a percentage is deferred for three years (at least 40% of variable compensation).  The deferred and unpaid portions must be reversed in case the institution has an unsatisfactory performance and the business unit has a negative performance.
 
Reflecting its concern with sustainable performance, Itaú Unibanco implements specific variable compensation practices for collaborators which roles and responsibilities have material impact on the risk of the bank, although they are not subject to the requirements of CMN Resolution No. 3,921.  For such collaborators, mechanisms are provided for making adjustments to bonus arising from compliance, risk as well as deferral events.
