The Bank’s 2Q21 net interest income totaled Ps.25.5 billion, 4% or Ps.957 million lower than in 1Q21 and 15% or Ps.4.6 billion lower YoY as a result of different regulations adopted that set caps on lending rates and floors on deposit rates.

Banco Macro continued showing high solvency levels in 2Q21 with an integrated capital (RPC) of Ps.212.2 billion over a total capital requirement of Ps.45.2 billion. Banco Macro’s excess capital in 2Q21 was 369% or Ps.167 billion. Since the beginning of 2020 and due to inflation adjustments Equity has increased significantly leading to higher solvency levels (shown under Ordinary Capital Level 1).

2Q21 Earnings Release

 

Asset Quality

 

In 2Q21, Banco Macro’s non-performing to total financing ratio (under Central Bank rules) reached a level of 1.68%, up from 0.92% in 1Q21, and above the 1.52% posted in 2Q20.

 

Consumer portfolio non-performing loans increased 89b.p. (up to 1.88% from 0.89%) while Commercial portfolio non-performing loans increased 11b.p. in 2Q21 (up to 1.11% from 1%).

 

During 2020 Consumer portfolio non-performing loans ratio were positively impacted by measures adopted by the Central Bank of Argentina in the current Covid19 pandemic context, particularly the 60 day grace period that was added to debtor classification before a loan was considered as non performing and the possibility to refinance outstanding credit card balances. These measures were in place until March 31st, 2021.

 

In March 2021 through Communication “A” 7245, the Central Bank established a gradual transition in the definition of debtors for clients who chose to postpone the payment of installments. Financial entities must increase the grace period to classify their debtors in levels 1, 2 and 3, both for the commercial portfolio and for the consumer or housing portfolio, according to the following schedule: i) Until March 31, 2021, in 60 days, ii) Until May 31, 2021, in 30 days, and iii) As of June 1, 21, financial entities must classify their debtors according to the general debtor classification.

 

The coverage ratio (measured as total allowances under Expected Credit Losses over Non Performing loans under Central Bank rules) reached to 212.91% in 2Q21. Write-offs over total loans totaled 0.04%.

 

The Bank is committed to continue working in this area to maintain excellent asset quality standards.

Expected Credit Losses (E.C.L) (I.F.R.S.9)

 

The Bank records an allowance for expected credit losses for all loans and other debt financial assets not held at fair value through profit or loss, together with loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts, in this section all referred to as ‘financial instruments’. Equity instruments are not subject to impairment under IFRS 9. The ECL allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset (the lifetime expected credit loss), unless there has been no significant increase in credit risk since origination, in which case, the allowance is based on the 12 months expected credit loss.(For further information please see our 2020 20-F)

· Covid-19: In early March 2020, the World Health Organization recognized Coronavirus (Covid-19) as a pandemic that is severely affecting almost all countries around the world. The spread of this disease globally has forced the authorities to take drastic health and financial measures to contain and mitigate its effects on health and economic activity. Particularly in the Argentine Republic, on March 19, 2020, through Decree No. 297/2020, the Government established the “social, preventive and compulsory isolation” measure until March 31, 2020, which was then extended until June 7, 2020. Along with health protection rules, tax and financial measures were taken to mitigate the impact on the economy associated with the pandemic, including public direct financial assistance measures for part of the population, the establishment of financial and fiscal facilities for both individuals and companies. As regards measures related to the Entity’s business, the BCRA established maturities extensions, froze the mortgage loan installments and encouraged banks to lend to companies at reduced rates. In addition, the distribution of dividends of the finance institutions was suspended until December 31, 2021. In addition, in the mandatory quarantine context, the BCRA ruled that financial institutions would not be able to open their branches for public service during that period and should continue to provide services to users remotely. They could also trade with each other and their clients in the exchange market remotely. During quarantine, remote trading of stock exchanges and capital markets authorized by the CNV, the custodians and capital market agents registered with the CNV was admitted. In view of the extension of mandatory quarantine, the BCRA then decided that financial institutions would open their branches from Friday, April 3, 2020 for public attention through previous appointments obtained by the Bank’s website. The Bank is developing its activities under the conditions detailed above, giving priority to the compliance of social isolation measures by its employees, with the primary objective of taking care of the public health and well-being of all its stakeholders (employees, suppliers, customers, among others). To this end, it has put in place contingency procedures and has enabled its staff to carry out their tasks remotely. From a commercial point of view, it has emphasized maintaining a close relationship with its customers, trying to respond to their needs at this difficult time, sustaining all virtual channels of care to ensure operability and good response to requirements, monitoring compliance with their business obligations and monitoring the active portfolio in order to detect possible delays in collection and set new conditions for them.
