To verify the correct identification of relationships and transaction with related parties, Grupo Aval has established a specific formal Procedure for the Identification and Disclosure of Balances and Transactions with Related Parties. Such procedure is communicated and made available to our personnel through Grupo Aval’s intranet. In application of this procedure, our members of the Board of Directors and our key management personnel are periodically required to identify close family members and entities over which such persons have significant influence. Such process is conducted by a written request containing the criteria that such person must consider in order to provide information on close family members and entities that must be disclosed as their related parties.

In addition, Grupo Aval Vice-Presidency of Accounting Consolidation periodically performs an evaluation of its controlling and non-controlling investments in other entities to identify if such entities should be treated as a related entity.

The following are some of the guidelines included in the abovementioned corporate framework:

This Reference Framework for Institutional Relations was also submitted to the consideration and approval of the Board of Directors of our subsidiaries and has been made available in the web sites of Grupo Aval and its subsidiaries.

Balances as of the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, with related parties, are detailed in the following tables:
