Item 1
RELEVANT INFORMATION
Bogota. July 12, 2017.
Grupo Aval
Acciones y Valores S.A. (“Grupo Aval”) informs that Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody´s”) improved
the rating outlooks of Banco de Bogotá S.A., Grupo Aval Acciones y Valores S.A. and Grupo Aval Limited (from “negative”
to “stable”) and affirmed their ratings.
Among other reasons, the improvement in
Banco de Bogota's outlook and affirmation of its ratings consider that the bank has maintained a significantly improved level of
capital since completing its corporate restructuring in June 2016, sustained by sound earnings generation and lower capital consumption.
Additionally, the rating action in Banco
de Bogotá S.A. caused similar rating actions in Grupo Aval and Grupo Aval Limited. Moody’s acknowledged Grupo Aval's
relatively stable leverage ratios, and ample liquidity, with liquid assets sufficient to cover a meaningful portion of debt maturities
in the next three years.
Following please find the mentioned affirmed
ratings with a stable outlook:
