Presentation of Risk Management and Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA)
Strategies and processes
The purpose of the organization is based on assuming a prudential level of risks in order to generate yields and keep acceptable levels of capital and funding, and generate benefits on a recurring basis. Therefore, it is vital that the teams assigned to risk management are highly trained professionals.
The General Risks Policy of BBVA Argentina expresses the levels and types of risk the Entity is willing to take to carry out its strategic plan, with no relevant deviations, even under stress conditions. Along this line, the process for risks management is comprehensive and proportional to the economic size and importance of the financial institution.
To achieve its goals, BBVA Argentina uses a management model with two guiding principles for the decision-making process:
Prudential analysis: related to the management of the various risks acknowledged by the Entity.
Anticipation: it refers to the capacity to make decisions foreseeing relevant changes in the environment, the competition and customers that may have an impact in the mid-term.
This process is adequate, sufficiently proven, duly documented and periodically reviewed based on the changes to the Entity’s risk profile and the market.
In this regard, the Board of Directors and the Senior Management are highly committed to the identification, evaluation, follow-up, control and mitigation of significant risks. These bodies periodically review credit, financial and operational risks, which may potentially affect the success of BBVA Argentina’s activities, and place special emphasis on strategic, reputation and concentration risks.
Structure and organization
The Group has a formal organizational structure, with a set of roles and responsibilities, organized in a pyramidal structure that generates control instances from lower to higher levels, up to the highest decision-making bodies. The following are the areas that conform the structure and a list of their functions:
Risks Management Unit.
Committees.
Reporting Units.
Cross-Control Areas.
Risks Management Unit:
This is an area that is independent from the Bank’s business units, in charge of implementing the criteria, policies and procedures defined by the organization within the scope of credit (retail and wholesale), operational and market risk management, with a follow-up and control of proper application and proposing the actions necessary to the keep quality of risks within the defined goals. One of its main functions is to ensure proper information for the decision-making process at all levels, including relevant risk factors, such as:
Active management throughout the life of the risk.
Clear processes and procedures.
Integrated management of all risks through identification and quantification.
Generation, implementation and dissemination of advanced decision-making support tools.
Committees
Committees are responsible for risk management. This implies knowledge, assessment, weighting and potential mitigation. BBVA Argentina has an agile and proper structure of committees in charge of managing various risks.
Reporting Units
The Reporting Units are in charge of control procedures for risk in compliance with Central Bank regulations, determining the risk quota for each segment of economic activity and type of financing, preparing fundamental metrics setting forth the principles and general risk profile in the statement of Appetite for Risk. In addition, it is in charge of generating reports for the Risks Management Unit for decision-making process in accordance with internal credit policies and control organizations’ policies, reviewing processes and proposing alternatives.
Cross-Control Areas
Internal Control and Compliance Department - has the following main functions: to ensure that there is a sufficient internal regulatory framework; a process and measures defined for each type of risk; to control its application and operation; and to ensure that an assessment is made of the existence of a control environment and its adequate implementation and operation.
Model Validation - Internal Control and Compliance Department - who ensures that BBVA Argentina’s internal statistical risk models are adequate for their use, and must issue a well-founded and updated opinion on their adequate use.
The control and monitoring areas are in charge of giving cohesion to credit risk management and ensuring that the management of the rest of the critical risks for the Bank is carried out in accordance with the established standards.
Finally, Internal Audit, transversal to the business and support units.
Risk Appetite Framework
Risk appetite is a key element which provides the Group with a comprehensive framework to determine the risks and level of risks, expressed in terms of capital, liquidity, profitability, income recurrence, risk costs or other metrics.
Risk appetite is expressed through a statement containing the general principles for the Group’s strategy and quantitative metrics.
Stress Testing
In compliance with the provisions on “guidelines for risk management in Financial Institutions” set forth by the Argentine Central Bank, the Entity has developed a stress test program, within the Entity’s comprehensive risk management.
Stress test means the evaluation of the Entity’s financial position under an adverse but plausible scenario, which requires the simulation of scenarios to estimate the potential impact on the value of portfolios, profitability, solvency and liquidity for the purposes of identifying latent risks or detecting vulnerabilities.
a) Credit risk
The Bank defines credit risk as the possibility to sustain losses as a result of a debtor’s or counterparty’s noncompliance with the contractual obligations assumed.
Credit risk is present in on and off-balance sheet transactions, as well as settlement risk , that is to say, when a financial transaction cannot be completed or settled as agreed. Credit risk losses arise from a debtor’s or counterparty’s noncompliance with its obligations. Also, it takes into consideration several types of risks, such as country risk, and counterparty credit risk.
BBVA Argentina defines country risk as the risk of sustaining losses generated in investments and loans to individuals, companies, and governments due to the incidence of economic, political, and social events occurring in a foreign country.
Strategy and processes
BBVA Argentina develops its credit risk strategy defining the goals that will guide its granting activities, the policies to be adopted and the necessary practices and procedures to carry out those activities.
Additionally, the Risks Management Department, together with the rest of the Bank’s Management Departments, annually develops a budget process, which includes the main variables of credit risk:
Expected growth per portfolio and product.
Evolution of default ratio.
Evolution of write-off portfolios.
This way, the expected standard credit risk values are set for a term of one year. Afterwards, the real values obtained are compared with that budget, to assess the growth of the portfolio and its quality.
Also, maximum limits or exposures per economic activity are formalized, pursuant to the Group’s placement strategy, which are used to follow up credit portfolios. In case of deviations from the set limits, these are analyzed by the Risks Follow-Up Committees to take the necessary measures.
Origination
BBVA Argentina has credit risk origination policies in place, to define the criteria to obtain quality assets, establish risk tolerance levels and alignment of the credit activities with the strategy of BBVA Argentina and in accordance with the Group. The policy of accepting risks is therefore organized into three different levels within the Group:
Analysis of the financial risk of the transaction, based on the debtor’s capacity for repayment or funds generation.
The constitution of guarantees that are adequate, or at any rate generally accepted, for the risk assumed, in any of the generally accepted forms: monetary, secured, personal or hedge guarantees.
Assessment of the repayment risk (asset liquidity) of the guarantees received.
Monitoring
The Bank establishes certain monitoring procedures based on the banking area involved, as the admission stage is not the end of the process. Monitoring is as important as decision-making, since risk is dynamic and customers rely on themselves and the environment.
The main monitoring procedures carried out by the various Banking areas are:
Monitoring of the limit granted: Since customer profiles vary over time, the limits of products contracted are periodically reviewed for the purpose of broadening, reducing or suspending the limit assigned, based on the risk situation.
Maintenance of pre-approved limits: Customers’ characteristics, vary over time. Therefore, there is periodical maintenance of the pre-approved limits, taking into consideration changes in a customer’s situation (position of asset and liability and relationship). Likewise, there is a periodic follow-up of the evolution of the pre-approved limit amount for the purpose of controlling and ensuring the risk assigned in accordance with the desired risk levels.
Monitoring of rating tools: Rating tools are a reflection of the internal inputs and show the characteristics and biases of such inputs. Therefore, they need a long period to reduce or eliminate those biases through the inclusion of new information, correction of existing information and periodic reviews optimizing the results of back-tests.
Portfolio analysis: The portfolio analysis consists of a monitoring process and study of the complete cycle of portfolio risk for the purpose of analyzing the status of the portfolio, identifying potential paths towards improvements in management and forecasting future behavior.
Additionally, the following functions are carried out:
Monitoring of specific customers.
Monitoring of products.
Monitoring of units (branches, areas).
Other monitoring actions (samples, control of admission process and risk management, campaigns).
The priority in credit risk monitoring processes is focused mainly on problematic or potentially problematic customers for preventive purposes. The remaining aspects, the monitoring of products, units and other monitoring actions, are supplementary to the specific monitoring of customers.
Recovery
BBVA Argentina also has a Recoveries Area within Risk Management to mitigate the severity of credit portfolios, both regarding the Bank and its subsidiaries, as well as to provide the results directly through collections of write-off portfolios and indirectly through collections of active portfolios, which imply a reduction of allowances.
Scope and nature of information and/or risk measurement systems
BBVA Argentina has several tools to be used in credit risk management for effective risk control and to facilitate the entire process.
Mitigation of credit risk, collateralized credit risk and other credit enhancements
In most cases, maximum credit risk exposure is reduced by collateral, credit enhancements and other actions which mitigate the Group’s exposure. The Group applies a credit risk hedging and mitigation policy deriving from a banking approach focused on relationship banking. The existence of guarantees could be a necessary but not sufficient instrument for accepting risks, as the assumption of risks by the Group requires prior evaluation of the debtor’s capacity for repayment, or that the debtor can generate sufficient resources to allow the amortization of the risk incurred under the agreed terms.
The procedures for the management and valuation of collateral following the Corporate Policies (retail and wholesale), which establish the basic principles for credit risk management, including the management of collaterals assigned in transactions with customers.
The methods used to value the collateral are in line with the best market practices and imply the use of appraisal of real-estate collateral, the market price in market securities, the trading price of shares in investment funds, etc. All the collaterals received must be correctly assigned and entered in the corresponding register.
The following are the principal types of collateral managed by BBVA Argentina:
Guarantees: It includes sureties or unsecured instruments.
Joint and several guarantee: upon default on payment, the creditor may collect the unpaid amount from either the debtor or the surety.
Joint guarantee: in this case the guarantors and debt-holders are liable in proportion to their interest in the company / transaction and restricted to such amount or percentage.
Security interest: it includes guarantees based on tangible assets, which are classified as follows:
Mortgages: a mortgage does not change the debtor’s unlimited liability, who is fully liable. They are documented pursuant to the Group’s internal regulations for such purposes and are duly registered. Also, there is an independent appraisal, at market value, which enables a prompt sale.
Pledges: this includes chattel mortgages of motor vehicles or machinery, as well as liens on time deposits and investment funds. To be accepted, they shall be effective upon realization accordingly, be properly documented and approved by the Legal Services area.
Loan commitments
To meet the specific financial needs of customers, the Group’s credit policy also includes, among others, the granting of financial guarantees, letters of credit and lines of credit through checking account overdrafts and credit cards. Although these transactions are not recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, because they imply a potential liability for the Group, they expose the Group to credit risks in addition to those recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and are, therefore, an integral part of the Group’s total risk.
Hedging based on netting of on and off-balance sheet transactions
The Entity, within the limits defined by regulations regarding netting, negotiates with its customers the execution of master agreements (for instance, ISDA or CMOF) for the derivatives business, including the netting of off-balance sheet transactions.
The wording of each agreement determines in each case the transaction subject to netting. The reduction in the exposure of counterparty risk arising from the use of mitigation techniques (netting plus use of collateral agreements) implies a decrease in total exposure (current market value plus potential risk).
Main types of guarantors
The Group defines that the collateral shall be direct, explicit, irrevocable and unconditional in order to be accepted as risk mitigation. Furthermore, regarding admissible guarantors, BBVA Argentina accepts financial institutions (local or foreign), public entities, stock exchange companies, resident and non-resident companies, including insurance companies.
Credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired
The Group has tools (“scoring” and “rating”) that enable it to rank the credit quality of its transactions and customers based on an assessment and its correspondence with the PD scales. To analyze the performance of PD, the Group has a series of tracking tools and historical databases that collect the relevant internally generated information. These tools can be grouped together into scoring and rating models, being the main difference between ratings and scorings is that the latter are used to assess retail products, while ratings use a wholesale banking customer approach.
These different levels and their PD were calculated by using as a reference the rating scales and default rates. These calculations establish the PD levels for the Bank’s Master Rating Scale. Although this scale is common to the entire Group, the calibrations (mapping scores to PD sections/Master Rating Scale levels) are carried out at the country level.
Credit risk exposure and allowances
The table below sets forth the changes during 2025 and 2024 in the credit risk exposure and the impairment allowances booked under IFRS 9 in the consolidated statement of financial position or reversal of estimated impairment of financial assets at amortized cost, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, loan commitments and financial guarantees:

b) Financial risks
The Financial Risks Management of the Risks Management area applies the criteria, policies and procedures defined by the Board of Directors to manage, with a follow-up and control of its proper application, and proposing the necessary actions to maintain the quality of risk within the defined appetite for risk.
The financial risks management model of BBVA Argentina consists of the Market Risks and Structural Risks and Economic Capital Areas, which are coordinated for the control and follow-up of risks.
The management of these risks is in line with the basic principles of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, with a comprehensive process to identify, measure, monitor and control risks.
The organization of financial risks is completed with a scheme of committees in which it participates, for the purpose of having an agile management process integrated into the treatment of the various risks.
Among others:
Assets and liabilities Committee (ALCO).
Risk Management Committee (RMC).
Financial Risks Committee (FRC).
BBVA Argentina has many tools and systems to manage and follow-up market risk, to achieve effective risk control and treatment.
c) Market risk
BBVA Argentina considers market risk as the likelihood of losses of value of the trading portfolio as a consequence of adverse changes in market variables affecting the valuation of financial products and instruments.
The main market risk factors the Group is exposed to are as follows:
Interest rate risk: From exposure to changes in the various interest rate curves.
Foreign exchange risk: From changes in the various foreign exchange rates. All positions in a currency other than the currency of the consolidated statements of financial position create foreign exchange risk.
The main market risk metric is Value at Risk (“VaR”), a parameter to estimate the maximum loss expected for the trading portfolio positions with a 99% confidence level and a time horizon of 1 day.
Current management structure and procedures in force include the follow-up of a limits and alerts scheme in terms of VaR, economic capital, stress and stop loss.
The market risk measurement model is periodically validated through Back-Testing to determine the quality and precision of the VaR estimate.
The Market Risk management model contemplates procedures for communication in the event the risks levels defined are exceeded, establishing specific communication and acting circuits based on the exceeded threshold.
The market risk measurement perimeter is the trading portfolio (trading book) managed by the Global Markets unit. This portfolio mainly consists of:
Argentine Government Securities.
BCRA Liquidity Bills
Corporate Bonds.
Foreign exchange spot.
Derivatives (Exchange rate Futures and Forwards and Interest rate swaps).
The following tables show the trading portfolio total VaR and VaR per risk factors based on daily VaR information:

Interest rate risk
Structural interest risk (SIR) gathers the potential impact of market interest rate variations on the margin of interest and the equity value of BBVA Argentina.
The process to manage this risk has a limits structure to keep the exposure to this risk within levels that are consistent with the appetite for risk and the business strategy defined and approved by the Board of Directors.
Within the core metrics used for measurement, follow-up and control, the following stand out:
Margin at Risk (MaR): quantifies the maximum loss which may be recorded in the financial margin projected for 12 months under the worst case scenario of rate curves for a certain level of confidence.
Economic Capital (EC): quantifies the maximum loss which may be recorded in the economic value of the Group under the worst case scenario of rate curves for a certain level of confidence.
The Group additionally carries out an analysis of sensitivity of the economic value and the financial margin for parallel variations by +/- 100 basis points over interest rates.
The following table shows the sensitivity of the economic value (SEV), to +100 basis points variation presented as a proportion of Core Capital:
