(b) Accounting policies for the preparation of consolidated financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the legal provisions, rules, and accounting regulations issued by the National Financial System Supervisory Board (CONASSIF), the General Superintendence of Financial Entities (SUGEF) and the Central Bank of Costa Rica (BCCR), and in those matters that are not covered by those entities, according to the International Financial Reporting Standards as of January 1, 2011 (IFRS). Through communication C.N.S. 116-07 from December 18, 2007, the National Financial System Supervisory Board issued a reform to the regulations denominated "Accounting Standard Applicable to the Entities Supervised by SUGEF, SUGEVAL and SUPEN and to the non-financial issuers." The objective of such standard is to regulate the adoption and application of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the corresponding interpretations (SIC and IFRIC interpretations.")

Afterwards, through articles 8 and 5 of minutes corresponding to sessions 1034-2013 and 1035-2013, held on April 2, 2013, respectively, the National Financial System Supervisory Board made a change to the "Accounting standard applicable to the entities supervised by SUGEF, SUGEVAL, SUGEF and SUGESE and to the non-financial issuers." According to such document, the IFRS and its interpretations must be mandatorily applied by the supervised entities, in accordance with the texts in force as of January 1, 2011. This is for the audits as of December 31, 2015, except for the special treatments applicable to the supervised entities and non-financial issuers. The anticipated adoption of standards is not allowed.

Issuing new IFRSs or interpretation issued by the IASB, as well as any amendment to the adopted IFRSs to be applied by the entities under supervision will require a prior authorization by the National Financial System Supervisory Board (CONASSIF). The financial statements have been prepared based on historical costs as explained in the accounting policies below.

Historical costs are generally based on the fair value of the consideration for goods and services.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date, regardless of whether price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Bank takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability on the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for the stock-based payment transactions within the scope of IFRS 2, the lease transactions within the scope of IAS 17, and the measurements that have certain similarities with the fair value but which are not fair value, such as the net realizable value in IAS 2 or the value in use in IAS 36. In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirely, which are described as follows:

Level 1 - inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets

or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2 - inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable

for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs for asset or liability.

(c) Investment in other companies

Valuation of investments by the equity method

i. Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Bank. Control exists when the Bank has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. As prescribed by regulations, the financial statements must present investments in subsidiaries by the equity method rather than on a consolidated basis. Transactions that affect the equity of those companies, such as translation adjustments and unrealized gain or loss on valuation of investments, are recognized in the same manner in the Bank's equity, the effects are recorded in the account "Adjustment for valuation of investments in other companies".

The Bank and subsidiaries must analyze and assess the distribution of dividends in accordance with current internal and external regulations applicable to each entity. The distribution of dividends will be proposed by the Administration of each entity; it will transmit the proposal to the Board of Directors and subsequently send to the shareholders´meeting in the case of the subsidiaries. Once the amount to be distributed has been determined, the accumulated profits of previous periods and/or the capital stock will be reduced, if necessary.

(d) Moneda extranjera

i. Foreign currency transactions

ii. Monetary unit and foreign exchange regulations

As of January 30, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Central Bank of Costa Rica, in article 5 of the minutes of session 5677-2015, established a managed floating exchange rate regime starting February 2, 2015, whose main aspects are detailed below:

In this regime, the Central Bank of Costa Rica will allow the exchange rate to be freely determined by the foreign exchange market, but may participate in the market in a discretionary manner, to meet its own requirements of currency and those of the non-banking Public Sector, in order to avoid sharp exchange fluctuations.

The Central Bank of Costa Rica may carry out direct operations or use forex held- for-trading instruments it deems appropriate in accordance with the current regulations.

In its stabilization transactions, the Central Bank of Costa Rica will continue to use in the Foreign Currency Market (MONEX), the rules of engagement with the amendments provided for in this agreement. The Financial Stability Committee must determine the intervention procedures consistent with the strategy approved by the Board.

As established in the Chart of Accounts, assets and liabilities held in foreign currency should be expressed in colones at the exchange rate disclosed by the Central Bank of Costa Rica. Thus, as of March 31, 2018, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars were valued at the exchange rate of ¢562.40 for US$1.00 (¢566.42 and ¢554.43 for US$1.00 in December and March 2017, respectively).

Valuation in colones of monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency for the period ended March 31, 2018 gave rise to foreign exchange losses of ¢113.606.528.382 (¢72.456.721.547in March 2017), and gains of ¢113.434.282.936 (¢72.219.187.070 in March 2016), which are presented net in the consolidated income statement. Additionally, valuation of other assets and other liabilities gave rise to gains and losses, respectively, which are booked in "Other operating income" and "Other operating expenses", respectively. For the period ended March 31, 2017, valuation of other assets gave rise to losses of ¢65.279.150 (gains of ¢203.148.339 March 2017), and valuation of other liabilities gave rise to losses of ¢172.245.461 (gains of ¢188.059.461 March 2017).

iii. Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries (BICSA) The financial statements of BICSA are presented in U.S. dollars, which is its functional currency. The translation of the financial statements to colones was carried out as follows:

Assets and liabilities have been converted at the closing exchange rate.

Income and expenses have been converted at the average exchange rates in

effect during each year.

The equity is measured in terms of historical cost and has been converted using the exchange rate on the transaction date.

As result of BCR's interest in BICSA, net profits in the amount of ¢864.093.308 arose for the period ended March 31, 2018 (¢545.882.201 in March 2017), which are disclosed in the consolidated income statement. As result of the conversions for the period ended on March 31, 2018 and 2017, losses arose for exchange rate differences in the amount of ¢389.983.686 and icome for ¢716.351.584 respectively, shown in the equity section, in the account "Currency translation adjustment of the financial statements".

(e) Basis for the recognition of the consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the fair value basis for available-for-sale and held-for-trading assets. Other financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are recorded at amortized or historical cost. The accounting policies have been consistently applied.

(f) Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to both a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. The Bank's financial instruments include primary instruments: cash and due from banks, investments in financial instruments, loan portfolio, other receivables, obligations with the public, obligations with entities, and payables.

(i) Classification

Held-for trading financial instruments are instruments held by the Bank for short-term profit taking. Originated instruments are loans and other accounts receivable created by the Bank providing money to a debtor rather than with the intention of short-term profit taking. Available-for-sale assets are financial assets that are not held for trading purposes, originated by the Bank, or held to maturity. Available-for-sale assets include certain debt securities. In accordance with accounting standards issued by CONASSIF, as of January 1, 2008, investments in financial instruments made by regulated entities are to be classified as available-for-sale. Own investments in open investment funds are to be classified as held-for training financial assets. Own investments in closed investment funds are to be classified as available-for-sale. Entities regulated by SUGEVAL, SUGEF, SUPEN, and SUGESE may classify other investments as held-for trading financial instruments, provided there is an express statement of intent to trade them within 90 days from the acquisition date.

(ii) Recognition

The Bank recognizes available-for-sale assets on the date on which the Bank becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. From this date, any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the assets are recognized in equity. Held-to-maturity assets and originated loans and other accounts receivable are recognized using settlement date accounting, i.e. on the date they are transferred to the Bank. In 2018 and 2017, the Bank did not classify financial instruments as held to maturity, except for the securities received to capitalize the Bank. (See notes 5 and 18).

(iii) Measurement

Financial instruments are measured initially at fair value, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, available-for-sale assets are measured at fair value, except for any instrument that does not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured is stated at cost, including transaction costs less impairment losses.

All non-held-for-trading financial assets and liabilities, originated loans and other accounts receivable, and held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost less impairment losses. Any premium or discount is included in the carrying amount of the underlying instrument and amortized to finance income or expense using the effective interest method. Article 17 of the Accounting Regulations applicable to entities regulated by SUGEF, SUGEVAL, SUPEN and SUGESE and to Non-financial Issuers prescribes available-for-sale classification for investments in financial instruments by regulated entities.

(iv) Fair value measurement principles

The fair value of financial instruments is based on their quoted market price on the consolidated financial statement date without any deduction for transaction costs.

(v) Profits and losses on subsequent measurement

Profits and losses arising from a change in the fair value of available-for-sale assets are recognized directly in equity until the investment is considered to be impaired, at which time the loss is recognized in the consolidated income statement.When the financial assets are sold, collected, or otherwise disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity is transferred to the consolidated income statement.

(vi) De-recognition

A financial asset is derecognized when the Bank loses control over the contractual rights that comprise the asset. This occurs when the rights are realized, expire, or are surrendered. A financial liability is derecognized when it is extinguished.

(g) Cash and cash equivalents

The Bank considers cash and due from banks, demand and term deposits, and investment securities that the Bank has the intent to convert into cash within two months or less, with the exception of BICSA whose period is ninety days or less.

(h) Investments in financial instruments Investments in financial instruments that are classified as available-for-sale investments are valued at market prices using the price vector provided by Proveedor Integral de Precios de Centroamérica, S.A. (PIPCA). In accordance with accounting standards issued by CONASSIF, starting January 1, 2008, the Bank no longer classifies investments in financial instruments as held-to-maturity. However, pursuant to Law No. 8703 "Amendment to Law No. 8627 on the Ordinary and Extraordinary Budget of the Republic for Fiscal Year 2008," securities received to capitalize State-owned banks are to be classified as held-to-maturity and are not subject to market price valuation. The effect of market price valuation of available-for-sale investments and restricted financial instruments are included in the equity account with the caption "Adjustment for valuation of available-for-sale investments" until those investments are realized or sold. Regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized by the settlement date method, date of delivery in exchange for an asset. Investments in repurchase agreements (forward seller positions) and investment in securities with original maturities of less than 180 days are not valued at market prices.

Held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost by the effective interest method. In accordance with Law No. 8703, the Bank no longer classifies investments as held to maturity, except investments in financial instruments received to capitalize the Bank.

Held-for-trading investments are measured at fair value through profit or loss and are acquired with the intention of selling the financial instrument in the short term.

When a financial asset is acquired with accrued interest, interests are booked in a separate account as interest receivable. Investments in securities of BICSA:

The fair value of BICSA's investment in securities that are quoted in active markets are based on recent purchase prices. If a security is not quoted in an active market, its fair value is determined by using a valuation technique, such as the use of recent transactions, the analysis of discounted cash flows, and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants. Shares for which fair values cannot be reliably determined are measured at cost less impairment losses.

(i) Loan portfolio

Banco de Costa Rica - Loan portfolio:

SUGEF defines credits as any operation formalized by a financial intermediary irrespective of the type of underlying instrument or document, whereby the intermediary assumes the risks of either directly providing funds or credit facilities or guaranteeing that their customer will honor its obligations with third parties. Credits include loans, factoring, purchase of securities, guarantees in general, advances, checking account overdrafts, bank acceptances, interest, open letters of credit, and preapproved lines of credit. The loan portfolio is presented at the value of outstanding principal. Interest on loans is calculated based on the outstanding principal and contractual interest rates, and is accounted for as income on the accrual basis of accounting. Further, the Bank follows the policy of suspending interest accruals on loans with principal or interest that are more than 180 days past due. BICSA -Loan portfolio: Loans receivable are non-derivate financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and usually originate in providing resources for a loan. Loans are reported at their outstanding principal pending collection, less not generated interest and commissions and allowance for loan losses. Not earned commissions and interest are recognized as income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method.

(j) Allowance for doubtful accounts Banco de Costa Rica - Loan portfolio

The loan portfolio is valued in accordance with provisions established in SUGEF Directive 1-05 "Regulations for Borrower Classification", which was approved by CONASSIF on November 24, 2005, published in the Official Journal "La Gaceta" No. 238 on Friday, March 9, 2005, and effective as of October 9, 2006. Loan operations approved for individuals or legal entities with a total outstanding balance exceeding ¢65.000.000 (Group 1 under SUGEF Directive 1-05) are classified by credit risk. This classification takes into account the following considerations:

Creditworthiness, which includes an analysis of projected cash flows, an analysis of financial position, considers the experience in the line of business, quality of management, stress testing for critical variables, and an analysis of the creditworthiness of individuals, regulated financial intermediaries, and public institutions.

Historical payment behavior, which is determined by the borrower's payment history over the previous 48 months, considering servicing of direct loans, both current and settled, in the National Financial System as a whole. SUGEF is responsible of calculating the historical payment behavior level for borrowers reported by entities during the previous month.

Arrears

Pursuant to the aforementioned Directive, collateral may be used to mitigate risk for

purposes of calculating the allowance for loan impairment. The market value and its updates should be considered and adjusted at least once annually. Further, the percentage of acceptance of collateral is also a mitigating factor. Collateral must be depreciated six months after the most recent appraisal.

Risk categories are summarized as follows:

Level 4

Borrowers are to be classified in risk category E if they fail to meet the conditions for classification in risk categories A through D mentioned above, are in bankruptcy, a meeting of creditors, court protected reorganization procedure, or takeover, or if the Bank considers classification in such category to be appropriate. Pursuant to SUGEF Directive 1-05: "Regulation for Rating Debtors", as of January 1, 2014, the Bank must maintain a minimum amount of allowance resulting from the sum of generic and specific allowances, calculated in accordance with Transitory XII. The generic allowance must be at least equal to 0.5% of the total due balance, corresponding to the loan portfolio classified in A1 and A2 risk categories, without reducing the effect of mitigators of loan operations which apply to contingent credits.

The specific allowance is calculated on the covered and uncovered portion of each loan. The allowance on the exposed portion is equal to the total outstanding balance of each loan transaction less the weighted adjusted value of the relevant security. The resulting amount is multiplied by the percentage that corresponds to the risk category. The allowance on the covered part of each credit operation is equal to the amount corresponding to the covered part of the operation, multiplied by the appropriate percentage. From July 2016, in the case of the loan portfolio of individuals whose coverage ratio of debt service is above the reasonable indicator, an additional generic allowance of 1% should be applied on the indicated basis of calculation. In the case of individuals who have a mortgage or another type of loan (except consumer loans) or are transacting a new loan with the Bank, they will have a reasonable indicator of 35%, and for consumer loans of individuals not secured by mortgage, a reasonable indicator of 30%. The bank must keep this indicator updated, semiannually. SUGEF will verify the compliance in their normal supervisory duties.

In the case of loans denominated in foreign currency debtors placed among borrowers that don´t generate cash flows in foreign currency, an additional generic allowance of 1.5% must also be applied on the basis of calculation. The indicated generic allowance will be applied cumulatively, so that in the case of borrowers that don´t generate cash flows in foreign currency, with an indicator for service coverage greater than the reasonable indicator, the generic allowance applicable will be at least of 3% (0.5% + 1% + 1.5%).

Classification categories and specific allowance percentages for each risk category are as follows:

From July 2016, pursuant to SUGEF Directive 19-16, Agreement, "Regulation for the determination and recording of countercyclical allowance", a generic allowance is applied to that credit portfolio that shows no evidence of current impairment, as determined by the level of allowance expected in periods of economic recession and whose purpose is to mitigate the effects of the economic cycle on the financial results derived from the allowance for non-payment of loan portfolio. On a monthly basis, the Bank must record the expense per counter-cyclical component equivalent to a minimum of 7% of the positive result of the difference between income and expenses, before taxes and profit sharing of each month, until the balance of the account of the countercyclical component reaches the amount corresponding to the required balance of allowance for the entity. At the entry into force of this regulation, the required minimum percentage level of countercyclical allowance is 0.33%. As of March 31, 2018, the allowance disclosed in the accounting records amounts to ¢53.976.467.365 (¢51.661.659.043 y ¢50.120.131.982 a December and Marcha, 2017, respectively). As of March 31, 2018, December and March 2017, increases in the allowance for loan impairment resulting from the minimum allowance are included in the accounting records in compliance with article 17 of SUGEF Directive 1-05 "Regulation for Rating Debtors", prior authorization from SUGEF in compliance with article 10 of IRNBS.

As of March 31, 2018, December and March 2017, management considers the allowance to be sufficient to absorb any potential losses that could be incurred on recovery of the portfolio. Accounts and interest receivable - Banco de Costa Rica In order to qualify the risk of accounts and interest receivable unrelated to loan operations, the Bank considers the arrears based on ranges established for other assets in SUGEF Directive 1-05 "Regulations for Rating Debtors", approved by CONASSIF.

BICSA- Allowance for loan impairment BICSA assesses whether there is any objective evidence of impairment of a loan or loan portfolio. The amount of losses on certain loans during the period is recognized as provision expense in the operations result and increases a provision account for loan losses. When a loan is determined to be uncollectible, the unrecoverable amount is reduced of that provision account. Subsequent recoveries of previously written-off loans increase the provision account. Impairment losses are determined using two methods, which indicate whether there is objective evidence of impairment, i.e. individually for loans that are individually significant and collectively for loans that are not individually significant. Impairment losses on individually assessed loans are determined based on an exposure assessment on a case by case basis. If it is determined that there is no objective evidence of impairment for an individually significant loan, this loan is included in a group of loans with similar characteristics and is collectively assessed for impairment. The impairment loss is calculated by comparing the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loans current interest rate or the fair value of the loans collateral less the selling costs, to its current carrying value. The amount of any loss is recognized as a provision for losses in the consolidated income statement. The carrying value of impaired loans is reduced through the use of an allowance account for losses on loans.

For the purposes of a collective assessment of impairment, BICSA uses statistical models of historical trends for probability of default, opportunity for recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, and makes an adjustment if current economic and credit conditions are such that actual losses are higher or lower than those suggested by historical trends. Default and loss ratios as well as the expected term of future recoveries are regularly compared with actual outcomes to ensure they remain appropriate. If in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be linked objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized, the impairment loss is reversed through an adjustment to the provision account. The amount of the reversal is recognized in the consolidated income statement. Management considers the allowance for loan impairment to be sufficient. The regulatory authority periodically reviews the allowance for loan impairment as an integral part of its audits. The regulatory authority may require that additional allowances are recognized based on its evaluation of information available as of the date of the audits.

As of March 31, 2018, the allowance disclosed in the accounting records amounts to ¢70.550.697.936 (¢63.398.877.209 and ¢59.320.447.080 in December and March, 2017, respectively). BICSA -Accounts and interest receivable

In order to assess the allowance for accounts and interest receivable, BICSA applies the criteria mentioned in the section on the allowance for loan impairment.

(k) Securities sold under repurchase agreements

The Bank carries out transactions of securities sales under repurchase agreements at future dates and agreed prices. The obligation to repurchase sold securities is reflected as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet and disclosed at the value of the original agreement. The underlying securities are held in asset accounts. Finance expense recognized is calculated by the effective interest method. Interest is presented as finance expense in the consolidated income statement, and accrued interest payable in the consolidated balance sheet.

(l) Accounting for interest receivable

Interest receivable is accounted for on the accrual basis. Under current regulations, interest accrual is suspended on loan operations that are more than 180 days past due. Interest receivable on those loans is recorded when collected. BICSA does not suspend the recognition.

(m) Other receivables

The recoverability of these accounts is assessed by applying criteria similar to those established by SUGEF for the loan portfolio. If an account is not recovered within 120 days from the due date or from the date of its accounting record, an allowance is created for 100% of the outstanding balance. Items with no specified due date are considered enforceable immediately. BICSA applies the criteria mentioned in the section on the allowance for loan impairment.

(n) Realizable assets

Realizable assets are assets owned by the Bank for realization or sale. Included in this account are assets acquired as payment in kind, assets adjudicated in judicial auctions, assets acquired to be leased under finance and operating leases, goods produced for sale, idle property and equipment, and other realizable assets.

Notes to the consolidated finantial statements

March 31, 2018

(Continue)

Realizable assets are valued at the lower of cost and fair value. If fair value is less than the cost booked in the accounting records, an impairment allowance must be recorded for the difference between both values. Cost is the historical acquisition or production value in local currency; these assets should not be revalued or depreciated for accounting purposes, and they are to be recorded in local currency. The cost registered in the accounting records for a realizable asset may only be increased by the amount of improvements or additions, up to the amount by which they increase the asset's realizable value. Other expenditures related to realizable assets are to be recognized in the period incurred. The net realizable value of an asset should be used as its market value, which should be determined by applying strictly conservative criteria and is calculated by subtracting expenses to be incurred on the sale of the asset from its estimated selling price. The estimated selling price of the asset is determined by an appraiser based on current market conditions. Future expectations for market improvements are not considered and it is assumed that the assets must be sold in the shortest period of time possible to enable the Bank to recover the resources invested and use them for its business activities. For all realizable assets, the Bank should have reports from the appraisers which are to be updated at least annually. If an asset recorded in this group is used by the Bank, it should be reclassified to the appropriate account in the corresponding group. Pursuant to article 20-b of SUGEF Directive 1-05, "Regulations for Rating Debtors", the Bank is required to record an allowance for disposed assets and for realizable assets that were not sold or leased under operating or finance leases within two years from the acquisition or production date, for an amount equivalent to the carrying amount of the assets. The allowance must be established gradually by recording one-twenty-fourth of the value of such assets each month until the allowance is equivalent to 100% of the carrying amount, without exception. The recording of the allowance shall begin at closing date of the month in which the asset was i) acquired, ii) produced for sale or lease, or iii) disposed of.

(o) Offsetting

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the consolidated financial statements when the Bank has a legal right to set off the recognized balances and intends to settle on a net basis.

(p) Property, Furniture and Equiment

(i) Own assets

Property, furniture and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets for both tax and financial purposes. Leasehold improvements are amortized straight line over a period of sixty months, starting the month after the deferred charge is recorded. Leasehold improvements are amortized solely at the end of the term of the lease agreement. When the lessor or the Bank notifies the other party that it does not intend to renew the lease at the end of the original lease term or extension, the remaining balance is amortized over the remainder of the lease term.

Pursuant to requirements established by regulatory authorities, the Bank must have its real property appraised by an independent appraiser at least once every five years, in order to determine its net realizable value. If the realizable value is less than the carrying amount, he carrying amount must be adjusted to the appraisal value.

(ii) Leased assets Leases in terms of which the Bank assumes substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership are classified as financial leases.

At the beginning of the lease term, the financial leasing is recognized in the statement of financial position as an asset and a liability by the same amount, equal to the fair value of the leased assets or the present value of the minimum lease payments, if this were the lowest between the present value of the stipulated payments in the agreement discounted at the interest rate implicit in the operation, determined at the beginning of the lease. To calculate the present value of the minimum lease payments, the interest rate implicit in the lease is used as the discount factor, wherever practicable to determine; otherwise the incremental interest rate of the tenant loans is used. Any initial direct cost of the tenant will be added to the amount recognized as an asset.

(iii) Subsequent disbursements Costs incurred to replace a component of an item of property, furniture and equipment is capitalized and accounted for separately. Subsequent expenses are only capitalized when they increase the future economic benefits; otherwise, the will be recognized in the consolidated income statement when incurred.

(iv) Depreciation and amortization Depreciation and amortization are charged to the operating results on the straight-line method, using the annual depreciation rates established for tax purposes. When appraisals made by independent appraisers determine that the technical useful life is less than the remaining useful life calculated using applicable rates for tax purposes, the technical useful life is to be used. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Useful lives of assets owned by the Bank and subsidiaries, except for BICSA:

Building 50 years Vehicles 10 years Furniture and equipment 10 years Computer hardware 5 years

Leasehold improvements 5 years

Useful lives of assets owned by BICSA:

Properties 40 years Improvements 5 years Furniture and equipment 5 years Computer hardware 3 years

Vehicles 3 years

(v) Revaluation

At least every five years financial entities should assess the real estate by appraisals, stating the net realizable value of the property. If the realizable value of the assets is different from the one disclosed in the accounting records, the Bank must adjust the book value to the resulting value of the appraisal. These assets are depreciated by the straight-line method for financial and tax purposes, based on the expected life of the respective assets. The last appraisal was made in 2015, and it was recorded on November 30, 2015.

(q) Deferred charges

Deferred charges are valued at cost and recorded in local currency. These charges are not subject to revaluations or adjustments.

(r) Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired by the Bank are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Until May 2015, the Bank recognized amortization expense on goodwill acquired on shares, which will be amortized over a 5 years period, in compliance with the Accounting Regulations applicable to Entities Regulated by SUGEF, SUGEVAL, SUPEN, and SUGESE and to Non-financial Issuers.

Amortization of IT systems is charged to operation results on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful life is of five years.

Subsequent expenditures or disbursements are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits; otherwise they are recognized in the results as incurred.

(s) Impairment of assets

The carrying amount of an asset is reviewed on each consolidated balance sheet date, in order to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated income statement for assets carried at cost, and treated as a decrease in revaluation surplus for assets recorded at revalued amounts, until the amount of the surplus of the specific asset is sufficient to absorb the impairment loss.

The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its net selling price and value in use. The net selling price is equal to the value obtained in free transaction between seller and buyer. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows and disbursements derived from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life.

If in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be linked objectively to an event occurring after impairment loss was determined, the loss is reversed in the consolidated income statement or consolidated statement of changes in equity, as appropriate.

For Banco de Costa Rica, SUGEF establishes the following: regardless of the previously expressed, at least once every five years, financial institutions must have its property appraised by an independent appraiser, in order to determine the net realizable value of property and buildings, whose net book value exceeds 5% of the entity's equity. If the net realizable value of the assets appraised, taken as a whole, is less than the corresponding net carrying amount, the carrying amount is to be reduced to the appraisal value by adjusting assets that are significantly overstated. The decrease in the value of real property for use is recorded against account "331 - Adjustments for revaluation of assets."

In cases where an entity is aware of a significant overstatement in the carrying amount of one or more assets, regardless of the cause of the reduction in their value and/or the useful life originally assigned, the entity must hire an appraiser to perform a technical appraisal, immediately notify SUGEF of the results, and register the applicable adjustments in the accounting records.

(t) Obligations with the public

These are current obligations of the resources available to the Bank for the realization of its purposes provided by external sources, which are virtually inescapable and are reasonably identifiable and quantifiable.

(u) Accounts payable and other payables

Accounts payable and other payables are recognized at cost.

(v) Provisions

A provision is recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position if, as a result of a past event, the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. The provision made approximates settlement value; however, final amounts may vary. The estimated value of provisions is adjusted at the consolidated statement of financial position date, directly affecting the consolidated income statement.

Employees' legal benefits (severance pay)

Costa Rican legislation requires the Bank and its subsidiaries domiciled in Costa Rica to pay employees' legal benefits to employees dismissed without just cause, equivalent to a seven days' salary for employees with three to six months of service, 14 days salary for employees with between six months to one year of service, and compensation in accordance with the Workers Protection Law for those with more than one year of service. In the specific case of the Bank, this limit is increased to twenty months for personnel who have worked for more than twenty years and for those who have fewer years, it corresponds to seniority in the Employees' Association up to twenty months.

In February 2000, the Workers Protection Law was enacted and published. This law modifies the existing severance benefit system and establishes a mandatory supplemental pension plan, thereby amending several provisions of the Labor Code. Pursuant to the Workers Protection Law, all public and private employers must contribute 3% of monthly employee salaries during the entire term of employment. Contributions are collected through the Costa Rican Social Security Administration (CCSS) and are then transferred to pension fund operators selected by the employee. The Bank follows the practice of transferring to the Employee Association the severance benefits corresponding to each employee based on the employee's current salary. The amounts of severance benefits not transferred to the Employee Association are provisioned as indicated in the Collective Labor Agreement.

BICSA retirement savings plan for employees

BICSA offers its employees defined contribution pension plans in accordance with the conditions and practices in the jurisdictions where it operates. Under those plans, BICSA contributes specified amounts to a fund managed by a third party, and is under no legal obligation to make additional contributions in the event the fund has insufficient assets to pay employees their benefits.

BICSA has adopted a voluntary retirement savings plan in which BICSA contributes twice the amount contributed by employees, up to a maximum of 10% of the monthly salaries.

(ii) Deferred:

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. In accordance with this method, temporary differences are identified as either taxable temporary differences (which result in future taxable amounts) or deductible temporary differences (which result in future deductible amounts). A deferred tax liability represents a taxable temporary difference, while a deferred tax asset represents a deductible temporary difference. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is a reasonable probability that they will be realized. BICSA's Miami branch is subject to state and federal income taxes in the United States of America. Income tax expense is determined by using the separate currency pools method, as described in Section 1.882-5 of the U.S. Treasury Department Regulations.

A fund was created by Law No. 16 as of November 5, 1936, which has been amended on a number of occasions. The most recent amendment was included in Law No. 7107 dated October 26, 1988.

At least from December 31, 2014, banks must calculate and maintain at all times the amount of specific provision determined by the methodology specified in this agreement, which considers the balance due from each credit facility in any of the categories subject to provision, the present value of each available collateral as mitigation of risk, as established by type of guarantee in this agreement, and a table of weightings applied to the net amount exposed to loss of such credit facilities. In case of an excess of a specific provision calculated in accordance with this agreement over the estimate calculated in accordance with IFRS, this excess will be recorded as a regulatory reserve in the equity, that increases or decreases towards undistributed earnings. The balance of the regulatory reserves will not be considered as capital funds for purposes of calculating certain ratios or prudential ratios mentioned in the agreement. The Bank determines its country risk reserve in compliance with provisions established in general resolutions No.7-2000 and No.1- 2001 issued by the Superintendence of Banks of Panama. Agreement No.004-2013 indicates that the dynamic provision is a reserve constituted to meet possible future needs of specific provisions ruled by prudential banking regulations criteria. It is constituted with quarterly periodicity on credit facilities that do not have a specific provision assigned. i.e., credit facilities classified in normal category. This agreement regulates the methodology to calculate the amount of the dynamic provision, considering a minimum or maximum restriction applicable to the provision's amount determined on credit facilities classified in normal category. The dynamic provision is an equity account that increases or decreases with assignments to or from undistributed earnings. The credit balance of the dynamic provision is part of the regulatory capital but does not replace or compensates the net worth equity requirements set forth by the Superintendence.

Income tax - BICSA Costa Rica

BICSA SERVICIOS, S.A., as a surviving entity of the group of companies that formed BICSA Corporación Financiera, .S.A, was condemned by the Administrative Tax Court to the payment of income tax for the fiscal periods from 1999 to 2004. In strict compliance with the deadline for cancellation, the sum of ¢1.243.985 adduced in the announcement was paid by BICSA on November 29, 2013, charged to the provision that was maintained for the case.

Notwithstanding that the payment was made in order to avoid other sanctions, given the nonconformity that the institution maintained to the scope, a judicial contentious administrative proceeding had already been filed, in order to declare the absolute nullity and inefficiency of the determinative resolution No.DT10R-11-08 of the Large Taxpayers' Division, the resolution No.AU-10-4-135-08, the ruling of the Administrative Court No. 035-2012 and the resolution No. SFGCN-AL-075-12, all arising from the transfer of charges No. 2752000016446 of income taxes for the years 1999-2004. Together with the repayment of the sums objected, interest added, damages and losses are also claimed for a figure currently undetermined, but that would be determined in execution of an eventual favorable judgment.

In response to this action, in January 28, 2014 the Costa Rican State started a contentious administrative process against the bank (Harmfulness Process), referring to the party won by BICSA in administrative proceedings. In order to better manage both actions, the accumulation of the processes was proposed, and in March 2015, the Contentious Administrative Court decreed to accumulate them. On June 19, 2015, a preliminary hearing was convened, in which the controversial facts of the complaint were indicated and, in turn, the application of the expert opinions requested by BICSA was approved. On December 23, 2016, the memorial presented by one of the experts was notified, granting a period of 3 working days to the parties to refer to it. BICSA referred to it on January 9, 2017.

Subsequently, by resolution of February 17, 2017 of the Contentious Administrative Court, a period of 30 working days was granted to another of the experts, so that they could submit their report, which was provided to the Court on February 19, 2017. On April 21, 2017, BICSA referred to this expert opinion, within the period granted by the resolution of April 17, 2017. Refering to the references and consultations made by BICSA, the expert answered incompletely BICSA´s objections, so that on September 12, 2017, assessments were presented again regarding this expert´s opinion. The next step will be to determine a date for an oral hearing and later, the issuance of the sentence. As of March 31, 2018, December and March 2017, due to the merger between INS Pensiones Operadora de Pensiones Complementarias, S.A. and BCR Pensión Operadora de Planes de Pensiones Complementarias. S.A., a series of contingencies arose that have been reasonably covered with pledged securities from the seller. As of March 31, 2018, December and March 2017, BCR Valores Puesto de Bolsa, S.A. has an administrative proceeding filed by the Large Taxpayer Division of the Costa Rican Tax Administration against BCR Valores, S.A. relating to the Preliminary Adjustment Proposal for the Income Tax for the 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, by the Costa Rican Tax Administration (hereinafter DGT), which might be classified in the tax contingency item against such a subsidiary and which current status is as follows: on September 9, 2015, the DGT provided BCR Valores with the results of the reports on the allegations timely submitted by such an entity against the Provisional Tax Adjustment Proposal and the Sanctioning Resolution Proposal, notified to BCR Valores in July 2015. All this was related to the Income Tax Adjustments for 2012 and 2013, plus interest and the penalization, which as of that date amounted to ¢621,189,153 (as of September 09, 2015, such an amount had a small increase because it has continued to bear interest).

According to such reports, the DGT totally accepted the allegations of BCR-Valores regarding Adjustments A.3 Expenses from Legal Profit Sharing, and the partially Adjustment A-2 Expenses from Allowances and Provisions, and A-4 Non Deductible Expenses Associated with Non Taxable Income because such items were derogated totally and partially as indicated; consequently, they generated an decrease in taxes, plus the corresponding proportion from interest and the penalization, thereby generating in favor of BCR Valores a decrease in the total initial adjustment of taxes, interest, and penalization in the amount of ¢203.559.377. Regarding the other adjusted items, especially Adjustments A.1 for Returns on investments in foreign financial instruments, A.1.2 Increase in the taxable income from amortized discounts from investments in securities, all of which were confirmed by the DGT and for a total estimate of taxes plus interest and proportional penalties as of September 9, 2015 of ¢406.894.334. From that date to December 31, 2017 the amount of ¢32,114,170 has been generated as a result of current interests that are not included in the provisioned amount. During the hearing, a proposal was made to BCR Valores for the regularization of the adjustments confirmed during this first instance pursuant to the provisions contained in Articles 144 and 171, subparagraph 12 of the Tax Code of Standards and Procedures (CNPT) and 157 of the Tax Procedure Regulations, or there was an option to accept a 5 business day term, after which it might express its approval, disapproval, or partial disapproval of the proposal. BCR Valores accepted the second option by pointing out that it would issue its opinion within the granted term. As of March 31, 2018, December and March, 2017, BCR Valores Puesto de Bolsa, S.A, was against a lawsuit filed by Avicola La Aurora S. A., which is processed under the file 08-001181-1027-CA. As of March 31, 2018, December and March, 2017, BCR Valores Puesto de Bolsa, S.A. has a legal proceeding with file number 14-007525-1027 CA. As of March 31, 2018 and December, 2017, a lawsuite against BCR Valores Puesto de Bolsa, S.A. was filed by Dan Hoglund, which is rocessed under file 16-000208-1027-CA-2. As of March 31, 2018, December and March 2017, there are no contingencies and commitments for BCR Sociedad Administradora de Fondos de Inversión, S.A. that should be disclosed.

In repurchase and term operations, the Brokerage House is contingently liable for the short balance that arises when a security is settled for an amount that is less than the amount payable to the respective buyer. In accordance with the Regulations for Repurchase Operations and the Regulations for Term Operations, all such transactions have collaterals to cover those contingencies.

Securities backing repurchase agreements are held in custody at Central de Valores de la Bolsa Nacional de Valores. S.A. (CEVAL) or foreign depositories with which CEVAL has custody agreements.

a) Repurchase

The Brokerage House enters into agreements to buy or sell securities at certain future dates (repurchase agreements). Those agreements are comprised of securities that the parties undertake to sell or buy on an agreed upon date and at a stated price. The difference between the contractual value and the value of the security represents additional collateral for the operation, and corresponds to a portion of the security held in custody.

As of March 31, 2018, forward buyer and seller positions in repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements in which BCR Valores, S.A. Puesto de Bolsa (Brokerage House) participates, are as follows:

The agreements entered into by the Pension Fund Manager are found in chapter II of the Labor Protection Law, articles 14, 15, and thereafter. The applicable agreement is known as "Voluntary Supplemental Pension Plan Affiliation Agreement." Following is a general description of the nature of the agreements entered into: The Labor Protection Law seeks to establish mechanisms to expand coverage and strengthen the funding base for the Disability, Old Age, and Death System of the CCSS through supplemental pension funds. The aforementioned Law establishes a voluntary personal savings system, whereby contributions are recorded and controlled by the Centralized Collection System of the CCSS, or directly by the pension fund operators. A close relationship exists between the funds, plans, and agreements, the latter being a formal requirement for eligibility to access pension funds. The agreements define and stipulate the rights and obligations of both parties. The funds are separate equity funds administered by pension fund operators for a stated purpose, i.e. long-term savings to be used by the member as a supplemental pension fund. The funds are comprised of voluntary contributions from members and third-party contributors. The plans are a set of complementary conditions and benefits offered to the plan's beneficiaries.Financial income on investments in financial instruments

Where practicable, the following assumptions were used by management to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments both on and off the consolidated balance sheet: a) Cash and cash equivalents, interest receivable, accounts receivable, demand deposits and

customer savings deposits, interest payable, and other liabilities.

The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

b) Investments in financial instruments

The fair value of available-for-sale financial instruments is based on quoted market prices or prices quoted by brokers.

c) Securities sold under repurchase agreements

The carrying amount of funds owed under repurchase agreements maturing in one year or less approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

d) Loan portfolio Management determined the fair value of the loan portfolio by the discounted cash flow method.

e) Term deposits and loans payable Management determined the fair value of term deposits and loans payable by the discounted cash flow method.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific date, based on relevant market information and information concerning the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale of a particular financial instrument at a given date. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and. Therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Estimates could vary significantly if changes are made to those assumptions.

(38) Risk management

Comprehensive risk management Sophistication and uncertainty of financial markets involve managing risks that may impair the value of entities and of third party resources it manages. Given this reality, the Bank implemented a System of Comprehensive Risk management, (Hereinafter Sigir or Sistema), enabling it to achieve a proper balance between the expected benefits of the business strategy and the acceptance of a certain level of risk, through an effective risk-based management. Corporate governance of the risk management area Boards of Directors, committees and senior managers of member institutions of the Financial Conglomerate strengthen and ensure the above mentioned system, aware that it contributes to the improvement of institutional processes, and hence to the achievement of objectives and goals. Corporate risk management is led by the Risk Management and the Regulatory Control Area, depending on the General Board of Directors which has various administrative units responsible for the specific and comprehensive management of relevant risk to which the entity is exposed while in the subsidiaries there are risk managing areas responsible for this work. Objective of the Comprehensive Risk Management System The System aims to generate information that will support the decision making to locate the entity at a risk level consistent with its profile and risk appetite as well as it business flows, complexity, operations volume and economic environment, and thus lead to the achievement of institutional objective and goals. General Risk Principles and Policies The Conglomerate has policies, strategies and other corporate regulations for an effective comprehensive risk management, thus providing administrative, legal and technical certainty to the System, supporting the decision making: A robust regulatory framework to provide legal, technical and administrative

certainty for the functioning, evaluation and improvement of the System. Strategies that seek to strengthen the system's maturity level. The risk management culture is promoted at all levels of the organization, thereby

raising awareness of the importance of effective risk-based management.

Methodologies and measurement models are available for the valuation of the different types of risk, which are periodically subjected to retrospective and stress tests, to adjust the variables and factors that influence the exposure to risks.

Updated tools and systems are available to meet the needs of managing each type of risk.

Risk and contingency management plans are in place to deal with situations that prevent the fulfillment of the stated objectives, as well as for materialized events whose consequences may generate negative impacts on the entities.

Classification of significant risks

The relevant risks to the Bank are classified as follows: Financial Credit • Loan portfolio • Investment portfolio (counterparty) Market • Liquidity • Inflation • Exchange rates • Interest rates • Prices of assets and liabilities Operational • Operating • Legal • Technological Other • Strategic • Reputational • Trust management • Securitization management • Conglomerate (intragroup) • Money laundering and terrorism financing

Risk profile and limit structure

The members of the Conglomerate define a risk profile for each entity, which is reviewed and updated periodically by the risk taker and risk managing areas, and is approved by its board of directors. According to this profile, parameters of acceptability, appetite, tolerance limits and risk indicators defining the exposure levels to assume, are established, thereby generating alerts to deviations from normal behavior, enabling timely decision making.

Process of comprehensive risk management The process in risk assessments includes identification, analysis, evaluation, Management, review, documentation and risk communication. Types of risk assessments The process in risk assessments includes qualitative and quantitative assessments. The first correspond to specific analysis of the objectives of activities and substantial processes of the BCR Financial Conglomerate. The second refers to global analysis with quantitative risk measurements using mathematical and statistical methods and models.

In addition, during the period under study, the management generated reports about risk on new services and products or modification to existing ones, which are issued prior to its release to the market or the contracting of services.

Risk control framework Risk Control arises as result of the operation of the Internal Control System established in each of the Conglomerate Financiero BCR members, incorporating flow of processes and internal control activities to minimize risk exposure. The established risk assessments generate various alerts, recommendations and risk management plans, contributing to its overall and specific mitigation. In addition, there are contingency plans for unexpected events that may affect compliance with the risk tolerance limits. In addition, there is a continuous monitoring of tolerance limits and risk indicators, in order to reflect the degree of exposure in which each of its relevant risk types is found. Contingency plans are available to deal with unexpected events that affect compliance.

Mitigation coverage In accordance with the regulations, estimates and provisions are maintained. Implemented risk assessment models seek to establish additional capital requirements to cover non-expected losses. Likewise, BCR net worth equity indicator is evaluated to analyze its ability to respond to different types of risk, which, during the period under study, was higher than the 10% limit established by the General Superintendence of Financial Institutions. Evaluation of the effectiveness and maturity of the System Risk managing areas apply critical judgment on the effectiveness and maturity of the System using self-assessment tools for continuous improvement. Annually, a Model of Corporate Maturity is applied to evaluate the progress in management by type of risk. The results of this assessment are used to define strategies and work plans. Information generated by the Comprehensive Risk Management System During the period under analysis, the system generated timely and periodic reports for the Boards of Directors, Committees and other risk-taking areas of the BCR Financial Conglomerate, as a result of the Comprehensive Risk Management, or by the occurrence of significant events that should be known of for suitable decision making based on risk exposure and risk based business management. (a) Credit risk management

Definition Credit risk is the possibility of economic losses due to non-compliance with the conditions agreed upon by the debtor. Management of this risk contributes to the strength of BCR's equity in the long term by providing both tools and information to improve decision making, minimize losses and maintain risk exposure of the loan portfolio within established parameters. The General Board of Directors of the BCR has defined management strategies to control credit risk from portfolios to individual debtors, using tools and methodologies framed within the existing regulations developed internally.

Management methodology In general, models and systems measuring credit risk that accurately reflect the value of the positions and their sensitivity to various risk factors are applied in corporative information from reliable sources. The statistical support is complemented with expert criteria to analyze the borrower's ability to pay, as well a stress analysis on exposures to macroeconomic variables that are related to microeconomic and Bank's internal variables. For the quantitative analysis of the consolidated loan portfolio, by activity and currency, there is a model to quantify the average probability of payment, expected loss and Value at Risk (VaR), from which the margin of expected loss are derived. Moreover, the risk inherent to the activities and products of the Bank is identified and analyzed, as well as its feedback to the organization through the Executive Committee Finally, there are limits to exposure to credit risk, to control exposure levels. Exposure and risk management

As of march 2018, the percentage of arrears greater than 90 days was 2.43% (2.90% and 1.87% as of December and March 2017, respectively). The latter indicator is 0,57 percentage points below the regulatory limit to be in the normal range, with retail banking activities showing the highest delinquency. The dollar portfolio accounts for 37.12% (37.29% and 42.00% as of December and March 2017, respectively) of the total portfolio. It is important to mention that the loan portfolio has been managed strategically in order to attract customers with an acceptable risk profile. In addition, regular monitoring of the loans in foreign currency is given, and in particular, the portfolio of clients not generating income in foreign currency. While there is relative concentration in activities such as trade, housing, services and consumption, as shown in note 6ª of the financial statements (Loan Portfolio by Sector), limits by activity as well as by economic interest groups for the housing portfolio are defined, to achieve a loan structure in the medium and long term that is consistent with the risk appetite established by the Senior Management.

In addition, appropriate and timely communication mechanisms on exposure of the Bank to credit risk are implemented at all levels of the organizational structure, thus allowing a prospective view of the impact on the credit estimates and equity. The reports consider both the exposure resulting from position taking and possible deviations arising regarding the limits and defined tolerance levels. Also, the commercial area is kept informed on the inherent risks of the economic activities associated with credit underwriting, through specific studies and analysis of the credit underwriting goals previously approved by the General Board of Directors, as well as new credit instruments the Bank is planning to offer.

The Bank's financial instruments exposed to credit risk are detailed as follows:

Additionally, the countercyclical allowance is of ¢8.604.759.313 (¢7.505.330.641.and ¢5.117.629.944 as of December and March 2017, respectivily). As of December and March 31 de 2017, the Bank must maintain a structural allowance in the amount of ¢41.906.209.983 corresponding to the direct loan portfolio for ¢41.726.751.095 and contingent loans for ¢179.458.888) and ¢43.745.057.499 (corresponding to the direct loan portfolio for ¢43.447.168.623 and contingent loans for ¢297.888.876), respectively. SUGEF External Communication 021-2008 dated May 30, 2008 establishes that the expense for allowance for impairment and bad loans corresponds to the amount necessary to achieve the minimum structural allowance. Furthermore, there must be a duly documented technical justification for any excess above the minimum structural allowance, which is to be sent to SUGEF with the authorization request. The excess may not surpass 15% of the minimum required allowance for the loan portfolio. This notwithstanding, if any additional allowances are required above the 15%, they must be taken from net earnings for the period pursuant to article 10 of IRNBS. Following is an analysis of the balances of BICSA's loan portfolio, individually evaluated with an allowance according to the gross amount and the net amount after deducting the allowance for doubtful accounts resulting from the risk assessment in accordance with the applicable regulations:

(b) Market risk management

Definitions Market risk refers to potential losses that may occur in the value of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet due to adverse movements in the factors that determine their price, also known as risk factors, such as liquidity, interest rates, exchange rate and inflation, including the portfolios under management.

The liquidity risk is generated when the financial entity cannot meet the requirements or obligations with third parties due to insufficient cash flow, resulting from the outcome between term recoveries (asset operations) and term obligations (liability operations), or to improper price formation mechanism that disables the price to transform an asset and/or liability into cash.

Price of assets and inflations risk measures the potential losses that may occur in financial assets included in the Investment portfolios, and a decline in the purchasing power of the money flows received by the Bank.

The risk of interest rates measures the possibility that the entity incurs in losses as a result of changes in the present value of assets and liabilities in which the Bank holds positions on or off balance.

The exchange rate risk is the possibility of economic loss due to variations in the exchange rate. This risk also arises when the net result of the exchange rate adjustments does not compensate proportionally the adjustment in the value of assets in foreign currency, causing a reduction in the equity indicator or in any model affected negatively in the determination of the exchange rate risk by variations in this macro price, as in Camel's indicators or own statisticians. Risk management methodology Regarding the management of market risk for the BCR's investments portfolio, daily monitoring of risk factors (interests rates and exchange rate) impact is given through the Value at Risk methodology (VaR). In addition, the risk derived from the Price quotations of financial instruments in the market is monitored through the methodology of historical simulation of VaR calculations established in SUGEF's agreement 3-06; this allows the entity to manage the impact of this risk on the net worth adequacy.

Thus the institution also applies models (stop-loss) that help to limit, to a certain degree, losses by negative changes in securities prices. In terms of interest rates, the Bank is sensitive to this type of risk due to the mix of rates and terms, both in assets and liabilities. This sensibility is mitigated through the management of variable rates and the combination of terms monitored by internal models. Counterparty risk management is carried out through the fulfillment of the investments profile established by the Bank in its internal policies, and the reporting of issuers, which analyzes the financial statements and the default risk by issuers, according to internal studies and risk rating. These limits are monitored weekly as established in the policies for managing the BCR's investment in securities. The management of the liquidity risk is periodically assessed by daily updating of the BCR projected cash flows to six months through an automated application, for the preparation of the gap report to one and three months both in colones and in US dollars, as well as the implementation of the Coverage of Liquidity Index (ICL), established by SUGEF 17-13 from January 1, 2015 on, which seeks to strengthen the banks with a backup of high quality liquid assets, for the fulfillment of their commitments in a stress scenario of 30 days. In order to decrease the liquidity risk, following variables are taken into consideration: deposits volatility, debt levels, liability structure, and liquidity degree of assets, availability of funding and the overall effectiveness of the gap of timelines. Tolerance limits and risk indicators The main indicators for controlling the market risk limits are the following:

• Liquidity risk: VaR by currency both in colones and US dollars, term matching to one and

three month both in colones and in US dollars and coverage of Liquidity Index (ICL). • Price risk: VaR of the Investment portfolio through internal models. • Inflation risk: Variation of real financial income (ViR). • Exchange risk: VaR of the equity position through internal models and the daily

management of the equity positions.

Exposure and risk management (c) Liquidity risk

The Bank continues with the liquidity strategy that seeks to increase deposits with the public and reduce their volatility, as well as diversify sources of wholesale funding. The foregoing in order to achieve a consistent growth of deposits with their placements, which not only allows compliance with regulatory indicators but also strengthens the Bank and promotes the fulfillment of the commercial goals given by its budget. These efforts have not only been carried out at the Bank level, but have also permeated the BCR Financial Conglomerate; mainly in the topic of concentration of liabilities.

Cash and cash equivalents show a growing year-on-year trend in mainly all accounts except for current accounts and demand deposits, as an effect of the liquidity strategy for complying with regulatory liquidity indicators (see note 2 of cash and cash equivalents).

All the interests of demand deposits present an year-on-year increase of 3% due to an increase in the balances of current accounts and savings deposits. (See table of demand obligations with the public in note 4 of this document). Wholesale funding decreases by 13% as a total if compared to March 2017, mainly due to the payment of obligations with the Central Bank loans with foreign financial institutions abroad. (See note 5, obligations with financial institutions and the Central Bank). As of March 31, 2018, regarding regulatory indicators, the liquidity coverage indicator (ICL) was of 1.05 times in local currency and 1.06 times in dollars, complying with the satisfactory values for the limits defined by SUGEF 0.90 and according to the Entity's risk profile. In the following table at the end of March 2018, a decline in both currencies is observed, corresponding to the gradual increase of the regulatory limits established for this indicator, from 0.80 to 0.90:

(d) Price risk of the portfolio The Bank of Costa Rica administers two investment portfolios: own Funds and Development Credit Funds. In the case of own funds, a concentration of 59.42% is observed in instruments issued by the Ministry of Finance. In this sense and with the purpose of mitigating the price risk of these instruments, a strategy was defined in the investment position of this issuer. As part of this strategy, the Bank holds regular meetings with the National Treasury, to learn about their development regarding the attention of its obligations and the process of placing the issuance of internal debt to international investors. As for the result of the 21-day VaR indicator for the Own Funds portfolio in colones, it stands at 0.86% while in dollars it is around 2.26%. In the case of the CDF portfolio, the VaR is 0.52% in colones and 3.30% in foreign currency. This risk has shown a downward behavior compared to the previous quarter, as a result of the diversification of the investment portfolio Below are the results of the VaR methodology-SUGEF 03-06:

As part of the mitigation actions to contain the price risk, the Bank has a policy of having investment concentrations subject to price assessment not greater than 6% per instrument. At the end of March 2018, there was an excess of the limit in three positions, for which the mitigating measures are being applied in order to recover compliance with the established amounts.

In general terms, exposure to risk is conservative, according to the current investment profile.

(e) Counterparty risk Counterparty risk management is based on weekly monitoring compliance with the internal limits of investment by issuer. Additionally, from May 2016 a counterparty VaR is calculated that represents the maximum impact on the total of the portfolio that can be generated by variations in the risk ratings. Results as of March 31, 2018 are as follows:

Counterparty VaR

Local 99% Internacional

99% Expected loss ¢ 361.135.190.429 US$ 41.306.433 % of the portfolio 38.67% 25.23%

Results as of December 31, 2017 are as follows:

Counterparty VaR

Local 99% Internacional

99% Expected loss ¢ 388.649.480.493 US$ 36.511.418 % of the portfolio 37.17% 21.76%

Results as of March 31, 2017 are as follows:

Counterparty VaR

Local 99% Internacional

99% Expected loss ¢ 335.811.341.742 US$ 4.285.005 % of the portfolio 30.85% 30.43%

As a mitigator of this risk, counterparty studies of local issuers are carried out every six months; with respect to international issuers the study is annual.

(f) Interest rate risk

The Bank has a credit portfolio, investments and obligations with the public and with entities subject to variable interest rates and therefore sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates and cash flow risk. As of march 31, 2018, has developed a sensitivity analysis on possible variations in interest rates.

Within the gap report (rate-sensitive assets and liabilities) in local currency, a total difference of asset recovery less maturity of liabilities as of march 31, 2018, for ¢1.249.106.694.203 (¢1.268.624.039.118 and ¢1.320.839.446.901 as of December and March 2017, respectively) while in foreign currency the same difference is of ¢509.303.0222.986 (¢522.499.022.602 and ¢538.439.652.946 as of december and marchde 2017, respectively), being an improved inference in the balance sheet due to positive changes in interest rates, since the entity presents more assets than liabilities in both currencies. Regarding to term matching (sum of liquidity of assets and liabilities), as of march, 2018 the total amount in local currency was of ¢376.894.259.949 (¢379.770.945.163 and ¢370.733.566.517 as of december and march 2017, respectively), while in foreign currency, the collected data for the compliance of obligations was of ¢244.675.726.671 (¢217.950.801.050 and ¢198.147.065.176 as of December and March 2017, respectively), which shows the necessary solvency to meet the liquid liabilities of the Organization.

(g) Foreign exchange risk

The Bank incurs in transactions denominated in US dollars and Euros. This currency experiences periodic fluctuations with respect to the Costa Rican colon, in accordance with the monetary and exchange policies of the Central Bank of Costa Rica (BCCR). Therefore, any fluctuation in the value of the US Dollar affects the results, financial position and cash flows of the entity, which constantly monitors its net foreign currency exposure in order to minimize this risk. The sensitivity analysis carried out on the net exposure in this currency as of September 30, 2016 indicates that variations of up to 5% in the Costa Rican colon exchange rate would result in exchange losses or gains, depending on whether a devaluation or revaluation of the colon occurs.

The Bank uses two indicators to manage the foreign exchange risk: matching assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency and value at risk (VaR). The upper limit to the net foreign currency position of the dollarized daily assets was eliminated by the General Board of Directors in January 2017, in response to changes in the new Foreign Exchange Transaction Regulations. Instead, a proposal to completely mitigate the foreign exchange risk of equity sufficiency, raising the net position in foreign currency by around 40% of the total equity, was developed. In order to improve the dollar term match and the Liquidity Coverage Index in this same currency, Treasury Management had to keep a long position in foreign currency, reching US$161 million (US$1.585 million and US$147.55 million as of December and March 2017, respectively). This position could increase gradually according to the authorized plan to comply with the Central Bank Regulation.

The Bank has established a risk limit of 1.5% for the VaR to the open position in foreign currency. In the first quarter of 2018, the volatility of the exchange rate had a stable behavior, causing the daily VaR to fall from 0.39%, which is very loose as compared to the established limit.

The valuation of monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency is carried out with reference to the purchase exchange rate set by the BCCR the last business day of each month. As of March, 2018, it was ¢562.40 per US$1.00 (¢566.42 and ¢554.43 per US$1.00 December and March 2017, r respectively).

The net position is not covered with any instrument; however, the Bank considers it remains at an acceptable level for buying and selling US dollars in the market at the time it is considered as necessary.

The Bank faces this kind of risk when the value of its dollar-denominated assets and liabilities is affected by exchange rate variations, which is recognized in the income statement.

As of March 31, 2018 and 2017, the financial statements show a net foreign exchange loss of ¢172.245.477 and ¢237.534.477, respectively.

(h) Operational risk management

According to previous statements in compliance with the guidelines developed in the agreements of the Basel Committee and the intentions of the Supervisor, operating or operational risk is defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate use or unforeseen failure of processes, personnel and internal and even automated systems or due to external events. This definition includes technological and legal risks, according to the generalized definition and the previous committee, but excludes the strategic and reputational risk.

The objective of BCR Financial Conglomerate in operational risk management is to minimize the financial losses, as well as achieving efficiency and effectiveness in the execution of processes and optimize its Internal Control System

Essentially, the model of management and control of operational risk in the Conglomerate comprises a set of qualitative and quantitative techniques and tools that allow determining the risk level in the substantive processes; this from the estimate of the probability of occurrence of identified relevant events and their impact. It also includes the assessment of effectiveness of existing management measures, as well as the implementation of risk management plans.

Regarding the calculation of regulatory capital, the BCR uses the basic method; however, it has been proposed to soon start the project to evolve to the standard method proposed by the Basel Committee. However, the priority in the operational risk management continues to focus on prevention and mitigation in the relevant processes.

Moreover, there is a monitoring of the risk indicators related to the most relevant or critical activities of the Bank resulting in mitigating actions that prevent from materializing the events and contingency plans for those events that present for deviations from the acceptability of the established parameters.

Given the nature of the entity and the risks inherent to its activities, the risk of internal and external fraud is considered as relevant, for which periodic training programs are implemented on elements that collaborate in the early detection of cases, as well as prevention announcements that warn of the different types of fraud and their evolution in our environment. Likewise, there are contingency plans that will be activated in case of non-compliance with the tolerance limit.

Regarding the IT risk management, there is an availability and implementation of an annual risk assessment plan in accordance with provisions established by SUGEF 14-17 “Regulation on the management of information technology”. These exercises identify and analyze the main risk events that might affect the smooth operation of the technological platform to develop management plans for a proper control. In addition, the most relevant risks are considered, starting with the interruption of software applications (programs) that support the critical functions of the Entity.

As an improvement derived from the monitoring of this risk, the goal of program availability was increased. On the other hand, the risk of failed changes, which could lead to interruptions of critical business functions, has had an acceptable behavior in the last quarter, being above the tolerance defined for this risk. Finally, regarding the risk of vulnerabilities in the technological platform exposed to the Internet, the behavior has been within the parameters of acceptability, and risk appetite. It should be noted that for each of the aforementioned risks there are contingency plans that would be activated in case of breach of the tolerance or their limit. Comprehensive test of Business Continuity Related to the topic of going concern and as requested by the SUGEF 18-16 agreement, the Bank of Costa Rica recently updated the Business Impact Analysis (BIA) as part of the methodology used, taking into consideration the business activities and the related aspects, such as: regulations, laws, among others. Likewise the assets that support these services identified as critical are: resources, people, infrastructure, technology, among others. The commercial offices are the physical channel through which the bank offers its products and services to the clients and it is of great importance to have a plan, in case of an interruption of the priority services offered by the Bank. The Contingency Plan of the Commercial Offices contains the customer service protocols and the steps to be developed for the attention of the critical products identified in the Business Impact Analysis (BIA). The common scenario of interruption is mainly based on the non-availability of services, which is the effect on communication between a commercial office and the Bank's data center. The application of the contingency plan allows the personnel to exercise themselves in the event of a real affectation, in addition to identifying weaknesses, proposing improvements and adjusting the existing procedures.

The Business Continuity Unit manages the necessary adjustments for the correct functioning of the contingency plan with the commercial and technology areas, based on the identified errors and results obtained from the application of tests, as well as preparing programs for staff training to strengthen the culture in business continuity issues. It is through tests that the effectiveness and efficiency of the business continuity plans can be measured and evaluated; in addition, the results of these tests, allow the organization to acquire the capacity to support, respond and resume the normal operation of its functions within a prudential period of time, so that business is not compromised and thus minimize the negative impacts that an interruption has on the organization. Last, regarding the management of the risks of money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the permanent reinforcement of the culture in the business areas is maintained with respect to the approach and risk based management, which is directed to prevent operations of concealment and mobilization of capital of doubtful origin, money laundering, financing terrorist activities or the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction through the Bank. This management integrates evaluation factors normatively defined as: clients, products, services, channels and geographical areas.

(41) Transition to the International Financing Reporting Standards (IFRSs)

Through various resolutions, CONASSIF (the Board) agreed to partial adoption, starting January 1, 2004, of IFRSs promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). In order to regulate application of those Standards, the Board issued the Terms of the Accounting Regulations Applicable to Entities Regulated by SUGEF, SUGEVAL, SUPEN, and SUGESE and to Non-financial Issuers and approved a comprehensive revision of those regulations. On March 17, 2007 the Board adopted a comprehensive reform of the "Accounting standards applicable to supervised entities by SUGEF, SUGEVAL, SUPEN and SUGESE and nonfinancial issuers." On May 11, 2010, the Board issued private letter ruling CNS 413-10 to revise the Accounting Regulations Applicable to Entities Regulated by SUGEF, SUGEVAL, SUPEN, and SUGESE and to Non-financial Issuers (the Regulations), which mandate application by regulated entities of IFRSs and the corresponding interpretations issued by the IASB in effect as of January 1, 2008, except for the special treatment indicated in Chapter II of the aforementioned Regulations. Pursuant to the Regulations and in applying IFRSs in effect as of January 1, 2008, any new IFRSs or interpretations issued by the IASB, as well as any other revisions of IFRSs adopted that will be applied by regulated entities, will require the prior authorization of CONASSIF. On April 4, 2013 C.N.S. 1034/08 was issued, stating that, for the period starting January 1, 2014. IFRS 2011 shall be applied with exception of special treatments referred to in Chapter II of the rules for regulated financial entities. BICSA does not have exceptions in the application of the IFRS, therefore specific information of this subsidiary is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, when it is necessary to reveal differences It should be noted that superintendencies as a whole have begun to review the accounting base applicable in Costa Rica for financial institutions, and further convergence is expected with existing IFRS.

Following are some of the main differences between the accounting standards issued by the Board and IFRSs, as well as the IFRSs or interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRICs) yet to be adopted: a) IAS 1: Presentation of Financial Statements

New IAS I is effective as from the periods beginning on or after January 1, 2009. The presentation of financial statements required by the Board differs in some respects from presentation under IAS 1. Following are some of the most significant differences: SUGEF Standards do not allow certain transactions, such as clearing house balances, gains or losses on the sale of financial instruments, income taxes, among others, to be presented on a net basis. Given their nature, IFRSs require those balances to be presented net to prevent assets and liabilities or profit or loss from being overstated. Accounts receivable and payable are presented as part of the principal account of both assets and liabilities and not as other assets or liabilities.

b) IAS 1: Presentation of Financial Statements (revised)

IAS 1 requires an entity to disclose reclassification adjustments and income tax relating to each component of other comprehensive income. Reclassification adjustments are amounts reclassified to profit or loss in the current period that were previously recognized in other comprehensive income.

Revised IAS I changes the name of some financial statements, using "statement of financial position" instead of balance sheet.

IAS I require an entity to present a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period in a complete set of financial statements when the entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively or makes retrospective restatement. The financial statements presentation format is determined by the Board and can be different from the options permitted on certain IFRS and IAS.

c) IAS 7: Statements of Cash Flows

The Board has only authorized preparation of the cash flow statement using the indirect method. The direct method is also acceptable under IAS 7.

d) IAS 12: Income Tax The SUGEF Chart of Accounts presents the items of assets, liabilities and income and expenses by deferred income tax, separately. IAS 12 allows the net presentation of assets and liabilities when they arise from the same tax entity. Income or expenses under IAS 12 must be presented as part of the total income tax, net.

e) IAS 8: Accounting Policies. Changes in Accounting Estimates. and Errors

In some cases, SUGEF has authorized the reporting of notices of deficiencies received from Tax Authorities against prior period retained earnings.

f) IAS 16: Property, Plant and Equipment The Standard issued by the Board requires the revaluation of property through appraisals made by independent appraisers at least once every five years, eliminating the option to carry these assets at cost or to revalue other types of assets. Furthermore, SUGEF permits the conversion (capitalize) of the surplus revaluation directly in equity (only for state banks), without having to relocate previously to retained earnings, as required by IAS 16. Moreover, under IAS 16, depreciation continues on property, plant and equipment, even if the asset is idle. The Standard issued by the Board allows entities to suspend the depreciation of idle assets and reclassify them as realizable assets.

g) IAS 18: Revenue

The Board has allowed regulated financial entities to recognize loan fees and commissions collected prior to January 1, 2003 as revenue. Additionally, the Board has permitted the deferral of the credit fee formalization of 25%, 50%, and 100% of loan fees and commissions for transactions completed in 2003, 2004, and 2005, respectively. IAS 18 prescribes deferral of 100% of those fees and commissions over the loan term.

BANCO DE COSTA RICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

The Board has also allowed deferral of the net excess of loan fee income minus expenses incurred for activities such as assessment of the borrower's financial position, evaluation and recognition of guarantees, sureties, or other collateral instruments, negotiation of the terms of the instrument, preparation and processing of documents, and settlement of the operation. IAS 18 does not allow deferral on a net basis of loan fee income. Instead, it prescribes deferral of 100% of loan fee income, and permits the deferral of only certain incremental transaction costs, rather than all direct costs. Accordingly, when costs exceed income, loan fee income is not deferred, since the Board only allows the net excess of income over expenses to be deferred. This treatment does not conform to IAS 18 and IAS 39, which prescribe separate treatment for income and expenses (see comments on IAS 39). Starting as of January 1, 2014 the treatment of loan commissions was implemented as directed in IAS 18.

h) Revised IAS 19: Employee Benefits

This standard is modified to recognize that the discount rate to be used must correspond to bonds in local currency. The transition date is for periods beginning on or after Juanuary 1, 2016 and may be applied in advance, disclosing that fact. Any adjustment for its application must be made against retained earnings at the beginning of the period.

This standard is for application in the periods that begin in or after January, 1, 2013. It includes changes referring to the benefit plans defined for which it previously required that the measurements of the actuarial appraisals were recognized in the income statement or in the other comprehensive income. The new IAS 19 will require the changes in measurements to be included in other comprehensive income and the cost of services and net interest to be included in the income statement.

i) IAS 21: The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates The Board requires that the financial statements of regulated entities to be presented in colones as the functional currency.

j) IAS 23: Borrowing Costs

A company treats as part of general financing any financing originally made to develop an asset, when this asset is ready for use or sale.

k) IAS 24: Related Party Disclosures The International Accounting Standards Board revised IAS 24 in 2009 in order to: (a) simplify the definition of "related parties", clarify the meaning to be given to this term and eliminate the incoherencies of the definition; (b) Provide a partial exemption from the requirement of information disclosed by entities related to the government. This standard will be applied retroactively for the annual periods starting as from January 1, 2011.

l) IAS 27: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements

The Board requires that the financial statements of a parent entity to be presented separately, measuring its investments by the equity method. Under IAS 27, a parent is required to present consolidated financial statements. A parent company needs not to present consolidated financial statements when the ultimate or any intermediate parent of the parent produces consolidated financial statements available for public use, provided certain other requirements are also met. However, in this case. IAS 27 requires that investments be accounted for at cost. With the modifications to IAS 27 effective as of 2014, in the preparation of separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries and associates may be accounted for at cost, in accordance with IFRS 9 or using the equity method described in the IAS 28. However, the Council have not yet been adopted the modifications to IAS 27. In the case of financial groups, the holding company must consolidate the financial statements of all of the companies of the group in which it holds an ownership interest of twenty-five percent (25%) or more, irrespective of control. For such purposes, proportionate consolidation should not be used, except in the consolidation of investments in joint ventures. Amended IAS 27 (2008) requires accounting for changes in ownership interests by the Bank in a subsidiary, while maintaining control, to be recognized as an equity transaction. When the Bank loses control of a subsidiary, any interest retained in the former subsidiary will be measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The amendments to IAS 27 became mandatory for the Bank's 2010 consolidated financial statements. These amendments have not been adopted by the Board. The objective of this standard is to describe accounting treatment and disclosures required by subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when the entity presents separate financial statements.

m) IAS 28: Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures The Board requires consolidation of investments in companies in which an entity holds twenty-five percent (25%) or more equity interest, irrespective of any considerations of control. Such treatment does not conform to IAS 27 and IAS 28. The objective of this standard is to describe the accounting treatment for Investments in partners and it determines the requirements for the application of the method of equity participation when recording investments in associates and joint ventures.

n) Revised IAS 32: Financial Instruments: Presentation Revised IAS 32 provides new guidelines clarifying the classification of financial instruments as liabilities or equity (e.g. preferred shares), SUGEVAL determines whether those shares fulfill the requirements of capital stock.

o) Amendments to IAS 32: Financial Instruments - Presentation and IAS 1: Presentation of Financial Statements - Puttable Financial Instruments and Obligations Arising on Liquidation The amendments to the standards require puttable instruments and instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation to be classified as equity if certain conditions are met. These changes have not been adopted by the Board.

p) IAS 37: Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets SUGEF requires that a provision for possible losses must be booked for contingent assets. IAS 37 does not allow this type of provision.

q) IAS 38: Intangible Assets The commercial banks listed in article 1 of Internal Regulations National Banking System (Law No. 1644) may present organization and installation expenses as an asset in the balance sheet, however, those expenses must be fully amortized on the straight-line method over a maximum of five years. Similar procedure and term must be used for the amortization of goodwill acquired. Automatic applications should be amortized systematically by the straight line method during the term which produces economic benefits; such term could not exceed five years. Similar proceeding applies to obtained goodwill.

IAS 38 allows different methods to distribute an asset amortizable amount during useful life. Useful life of automatic applications could be longer than five years as stated by CONASIF standards. On the other hand, IFRS do not require annual goodwill amortization, only yearly assessment for impairment is required.

r) IAS 39: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement The Board requires that the loan portfolio be classified pursuant to SUGEF Directive 1-05 and that the allowance for loan impairment be determined based on that classification. It also allows excess allowances to be booked. IAS 39 requires that the allowance for loan impairment be determined based on a financial analysis of actual losses. IAS 39 also prohibits the recording of provisions for contingent accounts. Any excess allowances must be reversed in the income statement. Revised IAS 39 introduced changes with respect to classification of financial instruments, which have not been adopted by the Board. The revised version includes the following changes:

The option of classifying loans and receivables as available for sale was established.

Securities quoted in an active market may be classified as available for sale, held-for-

trading, or held to maturity. The "fair value option" was established to designate any financial instrument to be

measured at fair value through profit or loss, provided a series of requirements are met (e.g. the instrument has been measured at fair value since the original acquisition date.)

The category of loans and receivables was expanded to include purchased loans and receivables that are not quoted in an active market.

The Board has also allowed capitalization of direct costs incurred for assessment of the borrower's financial position, evaluation and recognition of guarantees, sureties, or other collateral instruments, negotiation of the terms of the instrument, and preparation and processing of documents, net of income from loan fees. However, IAS 39 only permits capitalization of incremental transaction costs, which are to be presented as part of the financial instrument and may not be netted against loan fee income (see comments on IAS 18).

(Continue)

Regular purchases and sales of securities are to be recognized using the settlement date accounting only. Depending on the type of entity, financial assets are to be classified as follows: a) Pooled portfolios.

Investments in pooled investment funds, pension and retirement savings accounts, and similar trusts are to be classified as available for sale.

b) Own investments of regulated entities.

Investments in financial instruments of regulated entities are to be classified as available for sale.

Own investments in open investment funds are to be classified as held-for-trade financial assets. Own investments in closed investment funds are to be classified as available for sale.

Entities regulated by SUGEVAL and SUGEF may classify other investments in financial instruments as held-for-trading investments, provided there is an express statement of intent to trade them within 90 days from the acquisition date.

Banks regulated by SUGEF may not classify investments in financial instruments as held to maturity. The above classifications do not necessarily adhere to the provisions of IAS 39.

The amendment to IAS 39 clarifies the existing principles that determine whether specific risks or portions of cash flows are eligible for designation in a hedging relationship. The amendments to IAS 39 became mandatory for 2010 financial statements, with retrospective application. This amendment has not been adopted by the Board.

s) IAS 40: Investment Property

IAS 40 allows entities to choose between the fair value model and the cost model to measure their investment property. The Standard issued by the Board only allows entities to use the fair value model to measure this type of assets, unless clear evidence for determining the fair value of the assets is unavailable.

t) Revised IFRS 3: Business Combinations (revised) IFRS 3 establishes that the business combination between entities under common control may be carried out at cost or at fair value. The Board only allows the accounting of these transactions by taking the assets and liabilities at their fair value. IFRS 3 includes following changes: The definition of “business” was enlarged, which will probably cause that more acquisitions will receive the treatment of “Business Combinations”. The contingent considerations will be measured at fair value and subsequent changes will be recorded in the results of the period. The transaction costs, except the costs for issuance of shares and debt instruments, will be recognized as expenses when they occur. Any prior participation in an acquired business will be measured at fair value with changes in results. Any uncontrolled interest (minority interest) will be measured either at fair value or at the proportional participation in the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree, by transaction. The revised IFRS 3 will become mandatory for the financial statements for 2010 and will be applied prospectively. This standard has not been adopted by the Board.

u) IFRS 5: Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

The Board requires that an allowance be booked for 100% of the carrying amount of assets that have not been sold within two years. IFRS 5 requires that such assets be recorded and measured at the lower of cost or fair value, discounting the future cash flows of assets to be sold in more than one year. Accordingly, assets could be understated, with excess allowances.

v) Amendments to IFRS 7: Financial Instruments – Disclosures In March 2009, the IASB issued certain amendments to IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosure, which requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements and liquidity risk in respect of financial instruments.

BANCO DE COSTA RICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

(Continue)

The amendments require that fair value measurement disclosures use a three-level fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in measuring fair values of financial instruments. Specific disclosures are required when fair value measurements are categorized as Level 3 (significant unobservable inputs) in the fair value hierarchy. The amendments require that any significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy be disclosed separately, distinguishing between transfers into and out of each level. Furthermore, changes in valuation techniques from one period to another, including the reasons therefor, are required to be disclosed for each class of financial asset. Furthermore, the definition of liquidity risk has been amended and it is now defined as the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The amendments require disclosure of a maturity analysis for non-derivative and derivative financial liabilities, but contractual maturities are required to be disclosed for derivative financial liabilities only when contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of cash flows. For issued financial guarantee contracts, the amendments require the maximum amount of the guarantee to be disclosed in the earliest period in which the guarantee could be called. These amendments have not been adopted by the Board.

w) IFRS 9: Financial Instruments IFRS 9 deals with classification and measurement of financial assets. The requirements of this Standard represent a significant change from the existing requirements in IAS 39 in respect of financial assets. The Standard contains two primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortized cost and fair value. The Standard eliminates the existing IAS 39 categories of held to maturity, available for sale, and loans and receivables. For an investment in an equity instrument which is not held for trading, the Standard permits an irrevocable election, at initial recognition, on an individual share-by-share basis, to present all fair value changes in other comprehensive income. No amount recognized in other comprehensive income would ever be reclassified to profit or loss at a later date. The standard requires that derivatives embedded in contracts with a host contract that is a financial asset within the scope of the standard not to be separated; instead the hybrid financial instrument is assessed in its entirety as to whether it should be measured at amortized cost or fair value. This standard requires entities to determine whether presenting the effects of changes in the credit risk of a liability designated at fair value through profit or loss would create an accounting mismatch based on facts and circumstances at the date on which the financial liability is initially recognized.

The objective of this IFRS is to establish the principles for the financial information about financial assets so that it will present useful and relevant information for the users of the financial statements facing the evaluation of the amounts, schedule and uncertainty of the future cash flows of the entity. The standard includes three chapters on recognition, impairment of financial assets and heading instruments. This standard supersedes IFRS 9 (2009), IFRS 9 (2010) and IFRS 9 (2013). However, for annual periods beginning in or before January 1, 2018, and entity may elect to apply previous versions of IFRS 9 if, and only if the corresponding date of the entity initial application is prior to February 1, 2015.

x) IFRS 10: Consolidated Financial Statements This Standard provides a revised control definition and application guidance. Therefore, this IFRS supersedes IAS 27 (2008) and SIC 12, Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities, and is applicable to all investees. Early application is permitted. Entities that apply this IFRS earlier must disclose that fact and apply IFRS 11, IFRS 12, IAS 27 (as amended in 2011), and IAS 28 (as amended in 2011) simultaneously. An entity is not required to make adjustments to the accounting for its involvement with an investee when entities are previously consolidated or unconsolidated in accordance with IAS 27 (2008), SIC 12, and this IFRS, continue to be consolidated or continue not to be consolidated. When application of this IFRS results in an investor consolidating an investee that is a business not previously consolidated, the investor: 1) must determine the date when the investor obtained control of that investee on the basis

of the requirements of this IFRS; and

2) will assess the assets, liabilities, and no-controlling interests as if acquisition accounting had been applied from that date.

If (2) is impracticable, then the deemed acquisition date must be the beginning of the earliest period for which retroactive application is practicable, which may be the current period. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. This standard has not been adopted by the Board.

It supersedes IAS 31, Interest in Joint Ventures and SIC 13, Jointly Controlled Entities, nonmonetary contributions by ventures.

z) IFRS 12: Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities This Standard was issued in May 2011 with an effective date of January 1, 2013.

IFRS 15 supersedes: a. IAS 11: Construction Contracts; b. IAS 18: Revenue; c. IFRIC 13: Customer loyalty programs; d. IFRIC 15: Agreements for the construction of real estate; e. IFRIC 18: Transfer of assets from customers; and f. SIC-31 Revenue —Barter transactions involving advertising services.

Revenue is important information for users of financial statements, assessing the situation and financial performance of an entity. However, the above requirements for the recognition of revenue on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) and both requirements sets needed improvement. The requirements for recognition of revenue from previous IFRS provided limited guidance and, therefore, the two main standards for the recognition of revenue, IAS 18 and IAS 11, could be difficult to apply to complex transactions. Furthermore, IAS 18 provided limited guidance on many important issues of revenue, such as accounting of agreements with multiple elements. Instead, US GAAP comprised broader aspects in the recognition of revenue, along with numerous requirements for industries or specific transactions, which resulted in a different accounting of similar transactions. Therefore, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the issuer of national standards in the United States, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), initiated a joint project to clarify the principles for recognition of revenue and to develop a common standard for revenue to IFRS and US GAAP that: a. Eliminates inconsistencies and weaknesses of the above requirements on revenue; b. Provides a solid framework to address the problems of revenue; c. Improves comparability of recognition practices of revenue between entities,

industries, jurisdictions and capital market; d. Provides more useful information to users of the financial statements through

disclosure requirements improved; and e. Simplify the preparation of the financial statements, reducing the number of

requirements that and entity must refer. The basic principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognizes revenue to represent transfer of goods or services committed to customers in exchange for an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to exchange of such goods or services. An entity recognizes revenue in accordance with the basic principle by applying the following steps:

a. Step 1: Identify the contract (contracts) with the client - a contract is an agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations. The requirements of IFRS 15 apply to each contract which has been agreed with a client and meets the specified criteria. In some cases, IFRS 15, requires an entity to combine contracts and accounted for as one. IFRS 15 also provides requirements for the posting contracts changes.

b. Step 2: Identify performance obligations in the contract - a contract includes commitments to transfer goods or services to a customer. If goods or services are different, commitments and performance obligation are accounted for separately. A good or service different if the client can take advantage of the good or service itself or with other resource that are available to the customer and commitment of the institution to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately recognizable from other contract commitments.

c. Step 3: To determine the transaction Price - the Price of transaction is the amount of

consideration in a contract to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of goods or services involved with the client. The transaction price can be a fixed amount of the consideration for the client, but may sometimes include a variable compensation in cash or other form. The transaction price is also adjusted by the value of money over time if the contract includes a significant financing component, as well as any consideration payable to the customer. If the consideration is variable, an entity shall estimate the amount of the consideration to which it shall be entitled to the exchange for goods or services involved. The estimated variable compensation amount is included in the price of transaction only to the extended that is highly likely that a significant reversal of the amount of income recognized accumulated to not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable compensation was subsequently resolved.

d. Step 4: Allocate the transaction price between performance obligations of the contract -

an entity usually allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative independent selling prices of each good or service involved in the contract. If a selling price is not observable independently, an entity shall estimate. Sometimes, the transaction price includes a discount or a variable amount of the consideration that relates entirely to a part of the contact. The requirements specify when an entity assigns the discount or variable consideration to one or more, but not all the performance obligations (different goods or services) of the contract.

e. Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation -an entity recognizes the revenue when (or as) it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring goods or services committed to the client (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service). The amount of income recognized is the amount allocated to the performance obligation satisfied. A performance obligation can be met at any given time (usually for commitments to serve the customer). For performance obligations that are satisfied overtime, an entity recognizes revenue over time by selecting an appropriate method to measure the progress of the entity toward complete satisfaction of that performance obligation.

The event that triggers the obligation and results in a liability to pay a levy is the activity that produces the levy payment, as established by law. For example, if the activity that results in the levy payment is to generate an income from ordinary activities in this period, and the calculation of this tax is based on income from ordinary activities that took place in an earlier period, the event that results in the obligation of the levy is the income generation in the current period. Generating revenue in the previous periods is necessary, but not sufficient to create a present obligation. An entity does not have an implied obligation to pay a levy to be generated by future period operation; as a result, the entity is economically compelled to continue operating in that future period. The preparation of financial statements under the going concern assumption does not imply that an entity has a present obligation to pay a levy to be generated by operations in future periods. The liability to pay a levy is recognized progressively if the event results in the obligation over a period (for example, if the activity that generates the payment of the tax occurs as established by law, over a period). For example, if the event that results in the obligation is the generation of a regular income for activities over a period, the corresponding liability is recognized as the entity produces that income. An entity shall apply this interpretation for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.

The Bank expressed partial disagreement with the proposed regulation and is expecting the administrative liquidation to be notified, containing concrete facts and legal principles motivating the differences in the tax bases and tax fees. Negotiations of the IV Collective Labor Agreement As of July 2015, during the negotiations of the IV Labor Collective Agreement, several agreements were reached, among them: Introduce a transitional article III that provides the following: 1. Institutional interest: For the institutional interest of strengthening and modernizing the Bank

and as part of the actions that must be carried out to rationalize the operational expenditure corresponding to payroll payment, it is considered necessary to manage a voluntary change of the working force who work under the scheme of base salary and pluses, so that, if they agree, they move to the nominal wage scheme.

2. Voluntary modification of the salary scheme: During the period of six months counted from

the day following the homologation of the present reform of the Fourth Collective Labor Convention, the person remunerated under the scheme of base salary and pluses added, is entitled, if expressly requested, voluntarily and according to their particular interest, to avail any of the following options:

Option one: Voluntary variation of common agreement, keeping the worker his position: In this case the employee, upon his request, has the right to change from the basic salary scheme to the nominal salary scheme, remaining in his position and without any modification of any of the current working conditions established, except, of course, with regard to the salary compensation scheme that would become the nominal wage scheme.

In this case the employee will be compensated for the damage caused, which is the monthly decrease in his current salary in relation to the nominal salary that corresponds to the same position he occupies, difference that will be multiplied by the number of years of continuous service in the Bank or fraction of six months or more.

The mutual agreement in which the corresponding compensation is established will be established by means of an alternative dispute resolution agreement (RCA), signed before the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.

Option two: Voluntary termination of the employment relationship with employer's liability: In this option, the Bank assumes that the employee will not accept a voluntary change of his salary scheme base and pluses, reason for which he has the right to terminate his employment contract, in a strictly voluntary way and the Bank accepting employer liability.

For this reason, the Bank will recognize in favor of the worker, the payment of a severance payment at a rate of one month's salary for each year worked continuously in the Bank or a fraction of six months or more, in accordance with the established in article 37 subsection3 of the Civil Service Statute.

The average salary will be calculated as established in article 30, subsection b) of the Labor Code.

The amount to be paid will consider the total accumulated monthly contribution made by the Bank and recorded in the individual accounts held by the employee in the Asosiación Solidarista, if affiliated, and in the Labor Capitalization Fund and Mandatory Pension Regime (3% in total). If, with the aforementioned contribution, it is not enough to cancel the severance of the periods that correspond to the employee, the Bank will make the corresponding adjustment.

In this case and before the termination of the employment relationship, the worker will be entitled to the payment of the other corresponding labor rights at the time of termination of his employment contract, which are: proportional vacations, proportional school salary and proportional Christmas bonus, among others.

The employee also will be entitled – if he started to work for the Bank before February 18, 2000 - to receive the total amount that is in his individual account of the Retirement Fund that is administered by BCR Pensiones. The mutual agreement documenting the termination of working relationship as well as the corresponding compensation will be reflected by an alternative dispute resolution agreement of (RAC) signed before the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.

3. Application of no options: The employee paid under the scheme of base salary and pluses

who has no interest whatsoever in availing himself of any of the above two options will maintain during his employment relationship in an unharmed manner all the conditions that he currently enjoys and consequently will fully maintain his stability and will not have any variation in his current working conditions or any labor impairment.

The Bank undertakes to refrain from exercising any kind of influence or pressure against the employees that are paid under the base salary scheme and pluses, so that they modify the scheme.

4. Right of the former employee to rejoin the Bank: The former employee who, under option

two, terminated the employment relationship with the Bank and who decides to return to the Bank´s service has the right to be hired in the same position which he occupied prior to the termination of the employment relationship.

following the termination of the employment relationship.

b. Within this period, when the former employee performs the corresponding admission request, the Bank will carry out the formalities to formalize its definitive contracting, which must be carried out within a term not exceeding three weeks, counted from the receipt of the admission request.
