(2) Includes commissions and banking fees, income from insurance contracts and private pension and other income.
(3) The Recurring Return on Average Equity is obtained by dividing the Recurring Result (R$25,846 million and R$22,361 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively) by the Average Stockholders’ Equity adjusted by the dividends proposed (R$175,439 million and R$156,958 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively). The resulting amount is multiplied by the number of periods in the year to derive the annualized rate. The calculation bases of returns were adjusted by the dividends proposed after the balance sheet closing dates, which have not yet been approved at annual Stockholders' or Board meetings.
(4) The Return on Average Equity is calculated by dividing the Net Income (R$24,332 million and R$21,915 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively) by the Average Stockholders’ Equity adjusted by the dividends proposed (R$175,439 million and R$156,958 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively). This average considers the Stockholders’ Equity from the four previous quarters. The quotient of this division was multiplied by the number of periods in the year to arrive at the annual ratio. The calculation bases of returns were adjusted by the proposed dividend amounts after the balance sheet dates not yet approved at the annual shareholders 'meeting or at the Board of Directors' meetings.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 6-K and the description of our business in “Item 4. Information on the Company” in our 2022 Form 20-F. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in “Forward-Looking Statements” herein and in our 2022 Form 20-F.

 

Results of Operations

 

In August 2023, we entered into an agreement to sell all the shares of Banco Itaú Argentina. Due to this sale, the consolidated balance sheet of Itaú Unibanco as of September 30, 2023 does not include the balances of Banco Itaú Argentina, while the income statement for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 only reflected the results for the seven-month period ended July 31, 2023.

The table below presents our summarized consolidated statement of income for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The interest rates presented are expressed in Brazilian reais and include the effect of the variation of the real against foreign currencies. For more information on the products and services we offer, see “Item 4. Information on the Company” in our 2022 Form 20-F.

(ii) interest and similar expenses (R$(121,554) million and R$(78,406) million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively);
(iii) income of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (R$22,845 million and R$13,433 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively); and

(2) Includes commissions and banking fees, Income from insurance contracts and private pension and other income.

Nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to nine-month period ended September 30, 2022.

Net income attributable to owners of the parent company increased by 11.0% to R$24,332 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, from R$21,915 million for the same period of 2022. This is mainly due to a 9.9%, or R$10,532 million, increase in operating revenues and 21.3%, or R$1,271 million, decrease in current and deferred income and social contribution taxes, offset by a 10.1%, or R$5,763 million, increase in other operating income (expenses), and an 18.7%, or R$3,788 million, increase in expected loss from financial assets. These line items are further described below:

Net interest income increased by R$8,374 million, or 12.8%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, mainly due to increases in the following line items (i) R$35,698 million in interest and similar income, mainly due to increases of R$13,486 million in income from securities purchased under agreements to resell, R$12,935 million in loan operations income and R$5,445 million in financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income; (ii) R$9,412 million in income of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss; and (iii) R$6,412 million in foreign exchange results and exchange variations in foreign transactions. These increases were offset by an increase of R$43,148 million in interest and similar expenses.

oInterest and similar income increased by 26.3% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, due to higher income from securities purchased under agreements to resell and the positive effect of the growth of our loan portfolio, in addition to the positive impact of the repricing of our working capital, which set-off the lower credit spreads.
oInterest and similar expenses increased by 55.0% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, due to increases in the following line items: (i) R$18,500 million in expenses from deposits, especially in time deposits; (ii) R$15,057 million in expenses from securities sold under repurchase agreements; and (iii) R$11,619 million in interbank market funds. The increases mentioned above are a result of the increase in the volume of our operations and the slight increase in interest rates.

 

Please see “Note 21 – Interest and similar income and expenses and income of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details on interest and similar expenses.

 

Non-interest income increased by 5.3%, or R$2,158 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. This increase was mainly due to (i) a 35.4%, or R$1,347 million, increase in income from insurance contracts and private pension, due to higher insurance sales mainly related to group life products, credit life and mortgage insurance products, and the increase in our financial result of the period; and (ii) a 1.6%, or R$531 million, increase in commissions and banking fees, due to the higher transaction volume from credit and debit cards, both in the issuance and acquiring businesses.

 

The following chart shows the main components of our banking service fees for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, and 2022:

 

 

Please see “Note 22 – Commissions and Banking Fees” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details on banking service fees.

Expected Loss from Financial Assets

Our expected loss from financial assets increased by R$3,788 million, or 18.7%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, mainly due to an increase in expected loss with loan and lease operations of R$3,272 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022. This increase was mainly due to an increase in our credit portfolio and higher provisions in the Retail Business in Brazil, a result of the increase in origination of unsecured consumer credit products. Additionally, our provision for loan losses in the Wholesale business segment in Brazil was higher due to the normalization of the provision flow in this segment, due to the reversal of provision as a result of the upgrade of the credit ratings of certain clients in the segment in 2022.

Please see “Note 10 — Loan and Lease operations” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details on our loan and lease operations portfolio.

oNon-performing loans: We calculate our 90-day non-performing loan, or NPL ratio, as the value of our 90-day non-performing loans to our loan portfolio.

As of September 30, 2023, our 90-day NPL ratio was 3.5%, an increase of 40 basis points compared to September 30, 2022. This increase was due to the increase of 50 basis points in the 90-day NPL ratio in respect of our individuals loan portfolio, which experienced higher delinquency rates, and to the increase of 10 basis points in the NPL ratio of our companies loan portfolio. In the third quarter of 2023, we recorded sales of active portfolios with no risk retention to non-related companies. From these sales, R$101 million refer to active loans that were more than 90 days overdue, of which R$19 million from corporate segment in Brazil would still be an active loan portfolio at the end of the period if not sold. Additionally, we sold R$388 million which refers to active portfolios non-overdue or with short delinquency. These sales did not have a material impact on delinquency ratios.

We calculate our 15 to 90 days non-performing loan ratio as the value of our 15 to 90 days NPL to our loan portfolio. The 15 to 90 days NPL ratio is an indicator of early delinquency.

As of September 30, 2023, our 15 to 90 days NPL ratio was 2.4%, an increase of 10 basis points when compared to September 30, 2022. During this period our 15 to 90-day NPL ratio increased by 30 basis points in the 15 to 90-day NPL ratio of our individuals loan portfolio, which is returning to its pre-pandemic levels, mainly due to higher delinquency rates. This was partially offset by a decrease of 10 basis points in the NPL ratio of our companies loan portfolio, as of September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022.

The chart below shows a comparison of both NPL ratios for each quarter as of September 30, 2022, through September 30, 2023:

Coverage ratio (90 days): We calculate our coverage ratio as provisions for expected losses to 90-day non-performing loans. As of September 30, 2023, our coverage ratio in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil applicable to institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank, or BRGAAP, was 209% compared to a ratio of 215% as of September 30, 2022. This decrease was mainly due to an increase in 90-day NPL, concentrated in the individuals segment in Brazil and driven by the growth of our loan portfolio, especially in the Retail Business segment.

The chart below shows a comparison in the coverage ratios for each quarter as of September 30, 2022, through September 30, 2023:

 

Other Operating Income (Expenses) increased by 10.1% to an expense of R$62,935 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, from an expense of R$57,172 million for the same period of 2022. This increase was mainly due to the R$5,752 million, or 11.4%, increase in our general and administrative expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. This increase was due to: (i) the losses associated with the sale of Banco Itaú Argentina; (ii) the effects of our annual collective wage agreement; (iii) the increase in profit sharing expenses; (iv) higher expenses with data processing and telecommunications; and (v) higher expenses with depreciation and amortization.

Please see “Note 23 – General and Administrative Expenses” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details.

Current and deferred income and social contribution taxes amounted to an expense of R$4,685 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, from an expense of R$5,956 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, mainly driven by the increase in the average annualized long-term interest rate, or TJLP, from 6.64% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 to 7.22% in the same period of 2023.

Please see “Note 24 – Taxes” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details.

It also includes the following adjustments: (i) the recognition of the impact of capital allocation using a proprietary model; (ii) the use of funding and cost of capital at market prices, using certain managerial criteria; (iii) the exclusion or inclusion of extraordinary items from our results; and (iv) managerial adjustments and reclassifications applied to allow us to review our business analyses from the management point of view.

Extraordinary items correspond to relevant events (with a positive or negative accounting effect) identified in our results of operations for each relevant period. We apply a historically consistent methodology (approved by our governance procedures) pursuant to which relevant events are either not related to our core operations or are related to previous fiscal years. The provisions for restructuring are extraordinary items and, as such, do not impact the results and analysis regarding our segment information below.

For more information on our segments, see “Item 4. Information on the Company” in our 2022 Form 20-F and “Note 30 – Segment Information” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

The table below sets forth the summarized results from our operating segments for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023:

Nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022:

(a)Retail Business
   
 11 
 

This segment consists of business with retail customers, account holders and non-account holders, individuals and legal entities, high income clients (Itaú Uniclass and Personnalité) and the companies’ segment (microenterprises and small companies). It includes financing and credit assignments made outside the branch network, in addition to credit cards and payroll loans.

The following table sets forth our summarized consolidated statement of income with respect to our Retail Business segment for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, and 2022:

Net income  9,493  8,139   1,354 16.6
(1) Non-interest income include: commissions and banking fees; income from insurance and private pension operations before claim and selling expenses and other revenues.

 

Net income from our Retail Business segment increased by 16.6%, to R$9,493 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, from R$8,139 million for the same period of 2022. These results are explained as follows:

 

Operating revenues: increased by R$4,918 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, due to an increase of 8.9% in interest margin, due to a higher average credit volume. Moreover, non-interest income increased by 4.9% in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, driven by the increase in commissions and fees, as a result of the increase in acquiring revenues, due to the higher transaction volume from credit and debit cards and higher gains from “flex” products offered as part of our merchant services (advance payment of card receivables by the acquirer), and of the increase in card-issuing activities due to higher gains from interchange fees, driven by the increase in the transaction volume from credit cards, partially offset by the increase in expenses from reward programs. Revenues from insurance also increased, driven by the increase in earned premiums.

 

Cost of credit and claims increased by R$2,681 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, due to an increase in provisions for loan losses, driven by the increased origination in consumer credit and unsecured credit products.

 

Other operating income (expenses) increased by R$1,449 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, mainly due to higher personnel expenses, as a result of our annual collective wage agreement and the higher profit-sharing expenses, and higher administrative expenses, due to the increase in expenses with data processing and telecommunications, and depreciation and amortization.

 

Income tax and social contribution for the Retail Business segment, as well as for the Wholesale Business segment and Activities with the Market + Corporation segment, is calculated by adopting the full income tax rate, net of the tax effect of any payment of interest on capital. The difference between the income tax amount determined for each business segment and the effective income tax amount, as stated in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, is recorded under the Activities with the Market + Corporation segment. As discussed above under “Net income attributable to owners of the parent company - Current and deferred income and social contribution taxes,” our current and deferred income and social contribution taxes decreased due to a tax benefit from interest on capital.

(b) Wholesale Business

This business segment consists of products and services offered to middle-market companies, high net worth clients (Private Banking), and the operation of Latin American units and Itaú BBA, which is the unit responsible for business with large companies and investment banking operations.

The following table sets forth our summarized consolidated statement of income with respect to our Wholesale Business segment for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, and 2022:

 

Summarized Consolidated Statement of Income - Wholesale Business For the nine-month period ended

  (In millions of R$)    
Operating revenues 40,433  35,809   4,624  12.9

Net income 14,880  13,188   1,692  12.8
(1) Non-interest income include: commissions and banking fees; income from insurance and private pension operations before claim and selling expenses and other revenues.

Net income from the Wholesale Business segment increased by 12.8%, to R$14,880 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 from R$13,188 million for the same period of 2022. These results are explained as follows:

 

Operating revenues: increased by R$4,624 million, or 12.9%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, due to an increase of 19.0% in the interest margin, driven by the higher margin of liabilities recorded during the period. The 0.9% decrease in non-interest income was driven by lower volumes of economic advisory and brokerage services and lower gains from performance fees related to fund management activities. As of September 30, 2023, we participated in 163 local fixed-income transactions, which included debentures and promissory notes issuance, as well as securitization transactions, totaling R$47.4 billion, ranking first in volume and in number of operations pursuant to a ranking published by the Brazilian Financial and Capital Markets Association (Associação Brasileira das Entidades dos Mercados Financeiro e de Capitais, or ANBIMA). In the equity markets, we ranked first in number of operations, participating in 27 operations (including Block Trades), and first in volume with R$8.5 billion, both in Dealogic´s ranking, as of September 30, 2023. We also provided financial advisory services for twenty-eight M&A transactions in Brazil, totaling R$18 billion. As of September 30, 2023, we were ranked second place in number of M&A deals and sixth place in volume in Dealogic’s ranking.

   
 13 
 

 

Cost of credit and claims increased by R$2,620 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, due to the normalization in the provision for loan losses in the Wholesale Business segment in Brazil.

 

Other operating income (expenses) increased by R$857 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, mainly due to the higher personnel expenses as a result of the effects of the annual collective wage agreement, and the increase in administrative expenses due to higher expenses with data processing and telecommunications, and depreciation and amortization.

Income tax and social contribution for this business segment, as well as for the Retail Business and Activities with the Market + Corporation segments, is calculated by adopting the full income tax rate, net of the tax effect of any payment of interest on capital. The difference between the income tax amount determined for each segment and the effective income tax amount, as stated in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, is recorded under the Activities with the Market + Corporation segment. As discussed above, our current and deferred income and social contribution taxes decreased mainly due to a tax benefit from interest on capital.

(c)       Activities with the Market + Corporation

This segment consists of results from capital surplus, subordinated debt surplus and the net balance of tax credits and debits. It also includes the financial margin on market trading, treasury operating costs, and equity in earnings of companies not included in either of the other segments.

The following table sets forth our summarized consolidated statement of income with respect to our Activities with the Market + Corporation segment for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, and 2022:

(1) Non-interest income include: commissions and banking fees; income from insurance and private pension operations before claim and selling expenses and other revenues.

 

Net income from the Activities with the Market + Corporation segment increased by R$53 million, or 2.9%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022. We recorded an increase of R$1,102 million in other operating income (expenses), due to the tax benefit received in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022. This effect was partially offset by the increase of R$1,420 million in operating revenues.

Income tax and social contribution for this segment, as well as for the Retail Business and Wholesale Business segments, is calculated by adopting the full income tax rate, net of the tax effect of any payment of interest on capital. The difference between the income tax amount determined for each segment and the effective income tax amount, as stated in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, is recorded under the Activities with the Market + Corporation segment. As discussed above, our current and deferred income and social contribution taxes increased mainly due to an increase in income before tax and social contribution.

Total assets    2,509,117  2,321,066  188,051 8.1

September 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022.

Total assets increased by R$188,051 million, as of September 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to an increase in financial assets at amortized cost and in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. This result is further described below:

Financial assets at amortized cost increased by R$106,117 million, or 6.7%, as of September 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to an increase in interbank deposits, securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities at amortized cost, and compulsory deposits in the Central Bank of Brazil.

Interbank deposits, securities purchased under agreements to resell, securities at amortized cost increased by R$74,800 million, or 15.1%, as of September 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to an increase of (i) R$47,972 million in securities purchased under agreements to resell securities; and (ii) R$40,489 million in securities, mainly in corporate securities, especially in rural product notes (Cédula do Produtor Rural) and debentures.

Please see “Note 4 - Interbank Deposits and Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell”, “Note 9 - Financial assets at amortized cost – Securities” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details. 

Loan and lease operations portfolio decreased by R$3,618 million, or 0.4%, as of September 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to the decreases of (i) R$12,757 million in foreign loans – Latin America, mainly due to the impact of exchange variations, as well as the fact that we only consolidated the results of Banco Itaú Argentina until July 2023; and (ii) R$1,903 million in our corporate portfolio. The increase of R$9,823 million in our individuals loan portfolio, was due to increases of R$7,869 million in personal loans; and R$7,176 million in mortgage loans; which were partially offset by the decrease of R$6,947 million in credit cards, especially in installments with interest.

Deposits increased by R$60,846 million, or 7.0%, as of September 30, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to an increase of R$75,280 million in time deposits, due to the commercial strategy to focus on this product in the Retail Business segment and higher demand for fixed income products.

Please see “Note 15 – Deposits” to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements increased by R$64,242 million, or 21.9%, as of September 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to an increase of R$48,395 million in government securities.

Capital Management

 

Capital Adequacy

 

Through our Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process, or ICAAP, we assess the adequacy of our capital to face the risks to which we are subject. For ICAAP, capital is composed of regulatory capital for credit, market and operational risks, and by the necessary capital to cover other risks.

 

In order to ensure our capital soundness and availability to support business growth, we maintain capital levels above the minimum requirements, according to the Common Equity Tier I, Additional Tier I Capital, and Tier II minimum ratios.

 

Our Total Capital, Tier I Capital and Common Equity Tier I Capital ratios are calculated on a consolidated basis, applied to institutions included in our Prudential Conglomerate which comprises not only financial institutions but also consortium administrators (administradoras de consórcio), payment institutions, factoring companies or companies that directly or indirectly assume credit risk, and investment funds in which our Itaú Unibanco Group retains substantially all risks and rewards.

(1) The countercyclical capital buffer is fixed by the Financial Stability Committee and currently is set to zero.

As of September 30, 2023, our Total Capital reached R$197,653 million, an increase of R$12,238 million compared to December 31, 2022. Our Basel Ratio (calculated as the ratio between our Total Capital and the total amount of Risk Weighted Assets, or RWA) reached 16.3%, an increase of 130 basis points due to the results of the period and the reduction in risk-weighted assets due to the entry into force of Central Bank Resolution No. 229 and the evolution of internal models.

 

Additionally, the Fixed Asset Ratio (Índice de Imobilização) indicates the level of total capital committed to adjusted permanent assets. Itaú Unibanco Holding is within the maximum limit of 50% of total adjusted capital, as established by the Central Bank. On September 30, 2023, our Fixed Asset Ratio reached 20%, which represents a buffer of R$58,676 million.

 

 

 

Our Tier I ratio reached 14.6%, as of September 30, 2023, an increase of 100 basis points compared to June 30, 2023, due to the result of the period, the reduction in risk-weighted assets due to the entry into force of Central Bank Resolution No. 229 and evolution of internal models.

 

Please see “Note 32 – Risk and Capital Management” of our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for further details about regulatory capital.

 

Liquidity Ratios

The Basel III Framework introduced global liquidity standards, providing for minimum liquidity requirements and aims to ensure that banks can rely on their own sources of liquidity, leaving central banks as a lender of last resort. Basel III provides for two liquidity ratios to ensure that financial institutions have sufficient liquidity to meet their short-term and long-term obligations: (i) the liquidity coverage ratio, or LCR, and (ii) the net stable funding ratio, or NSFR.

   
 18 
 

We believe that the LCR and NSFR provide more relevant information than an analysis of summarized cash flows.

We present below a discussion of our LCR for the average of the three-month period ended on September 30, 2023, and NSFR as of September 30, 2023.

 

Liquidity Coverage Ratio

 

The LCR measures the short-term resistance of a bank’s liquidity risk profile. It is the ratio of the stock of high-quality liquid assets to expected net cash outflows over the next 30 days, assuming a scenario of idiosyncratic or systemic liquidity stress.

 

We calculate our LCR according to the methodology established in Central Bank Circular No. 3,749/2015. We measure our total high liquidity assets for the end of each period to cash outflows and inflows as the daily average value for each period. Pursuant to Central Bank regulations, effective as of January 1, 2019, the minimum LCR is 100%.

(1) High Quality Liquidity Assets correspond to inventories, in some cases weighted by a discount factor, of assets that remain liquid in the market even in periods of stress, that can easily be converted into cash and that are classified as low risk.
(2) Outflows — total potential cash outflows for a 30-day horizon, calculated for a standard stress scenario as defined by BACEN Circular 3,749.
(3) Inflows — total potential cash inflows for a 30-day horizon, calculated for a standard stress scenario as defined by BACEN Circular 3,749.

 

Our average LCR as of September 30, 2023 was 187.8% and, accordingly, above Central Bank requirements.

 

Net Stable Funding Ratio

 

The NSFR measures long-term liquidity risk. It is the ratio of available stable funding to required stable funding over a one-year time period, assuming a stressed scenario.

 

We calculate our NSFR according to the methodology established in Central Bank Circular No. 3,869/2017. The NSFR corresponds to the ratio of our available stable funds for the end of each period (recursos estáveis disponíveis, or ASF) to our required stable funds for the end of each period (recursos estáveis requeridos, or RSF).

 

Pursuant to Central Bank regulations, effective as of October 1, 2018, the minimum NSFR is 100%.

(1)  ASF – Available Stable Funding – refers to liabilities and equity weighted by a discount factor according to their stability, pursuant to Central Bank Circular 3,869/2017.
(2) RSF – Required Stable Funding – refers to assets and off-balance exposures weighted by a discount factor to their necessity, pursuant to Central Bank Circular 3,869/2017.

 

As of September 30, 2023, our ASF totaled R$1,224 billion, mainly due to capital and Retail Business and Wholesale Business funding, and our RSF totaled R$962 billion, particularly due to loans and financings with Wholesale Business and Retail Business customers, central governments and transactions with central banks.

As of September 30, 2023, our NSFR was 127.3% and, accordingly, above Central Bank requirements.

REGULATORY RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

We are subject to the regulation and supervision of various regulatory entities in the segments we operate. The supervision of these entities is essential to the structure of our business and directly impacts our growth strategies. Our 2022 Form 20-F contains disclosure of the regulations and supervision of various regulatory entities to which we are subject in “Item 4B. Business Overview - Supervision and Regulation.”

 

We describe below the material regulatory developments applicable to us that took place during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 and through the date of this Form 6-K.

 

Instant Payments

The Central Bank implemented an instant payment ecosystem in November 2020. The settlement of the system is centralized at the Central Bank. In addition to increasing the speed at which payments or transfers are made and received, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, all days of the year, the ecosystem increased market competitiveness and efficiency; lowered costs; and enhanced customer experience.

 

Central Bank Resolution No. 1/20, or the PIX Regulation, came into effect on September 1st, 2020, and established the Instant Payment Arrangement, or PIX System, payment scheme, and approved its regulation.

 

On February 17, 2023, the Central Bank published Resolution No. 293, which establishes additional rules for partnerships and outsourcing arrangements established within the PIX System by market participants, previously defined in Central Bank Resolution No. 269, which defines, among other things, “partnerships” within the PIX scheme as a commercial relationship between two or more institutions directly participating in the PIX scheme and “outsourcing” as a relationship between a participating institution and a non-participating private agent. Central Bank Resolution No. 269 also explicitly prohibits PIX related outsourcing arrangements in two cases: (i) when the third party offers transactional accounts; and (ii) when the third party does not hold a transactional account but initiates payment transactions through an account provided by a participating institution. The first type of outsourcing is expressly forbidden because the agent that holds a transactional account and wishes to offer PIX to its customers must necessarily be a PIX participant itself.

 

We are not part of any partnership scheme, nor do we outsource PIX System activities, but these changes increase market competitivity.

 

On September 26, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 342, which came into effect on September 28, 2023, and enhances rules mostly related to PIX System safety incidents, mainly referring to communication to data subjects when any incidents involving personal data occur, as well as the framework penalties the institution participating in the PIX System are subject to in cases of non-compliance with technical and regulatory safety requirements.

 

Open Finance

The Brazilian open finance comprises financial institutions, payment institutions and other Central Bank-licensed entities by making it possible to share, in a phased-in approach and through a secure, prompt, accurate and convenient manner, data on products and services, customer record data and customer transaction data upon customer’s authorization, via integration of information systems. Open finance also covers the provision of initiation payment services and forwarding loan proposals through digital correspondent agents.

 

On February 27, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 294, which came into effect on April 1, 2023, establishing, among other things, technical requirements, and operational procedures for the Open Finance implementation in Brazil. The main change introduced by this rule is related to the scope of the monitoring function assigned to the governance structure responsible for implementing Open Finance.

 

On October 26, 2023, the Central Bank issued Joint Resolution No. 7, which came into effect on October 30, 2023, and simplifies the process of renewing consents for data sharing in Open Finance. In order to ease the process for clients, the new rule allows participating institutions, such as us, to offer longer terms than the current 12-month limit for data sharing, while maintaining the provision allowing clients to revoke their consent at any time.

   
 24 
 

 

Foreign Exchange Transactions and Exposure

On October 17, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 348, that came into effect on November 1, 2023. This rule amends prior rules, provides, among other matters, that the execution of simultaneous foreign exchange transactions will no longer be required for foreign direct investments and granting of loans to foreign investors when there is no actual flow of funds involved in the underlying transaction, subject to other conditions as provided in Resolution No. 348. Foreign exchange transactions must still be followed in investments performed by non-resident investors in the Brazilian capital and finance markets.

 

Implementation of Basel III in Brazil

 

On March 16, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 303, that came into effect on July 1, 2023, which provides for changes in the calculation of the capital requirement related to credit risk exposures calculated through the internal ratings-based, or IRB, approach (RWACIRB). Resolution No. 303 introduces limits for some parameters, reduces the set of portfolios eligible to the IRB approaches and introduces several improvements to the applicable prudential regulation, including flexibility in the application process for the use of the IRB approaches, which now allows partial adoption by the institution, for specific portfolios. While the rule is applicable to financial institutions classified in segments S1, such as us, and S2, according to classifications issued by the Central Bank for the purposes of the proportional application of prudential regulation according to systemic risk, as of the date of this report, none of the institutions included in these segments, including us, uses IRB approaches, since adoption is optional and subject to prior approval by the Central Bank.

 

Pillar 3 Report

 

On March 23, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 306, that alters several prudential rules to include in their scope of application regulatory conglomerates (conglomerados prudenciais) led by payment institutions. Among other changes, two new topic sections were included in the Pillar 3 report. The first deals with the comparison between the RWA amounts calculated through the standard approach and through the IRB approaches, and the second with the disclosure of information related to assets subject to any impediment or restriction of negotiation due to a legal, regulatory, statutory or contractual aspect.

 

New Rules on Accounting Standards

On March 28, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 309, establishing, among other things, accounting procedures to (i) define the components of financial instruments which constitute payments of principal and interest on the principal value for the purposes of classification of financial assets; (ii) define the methodology for determining the effective interest rate of financial instruments; (iii) establish parameters to measure the expected loss associated with credit risk, including for setting minimum levels of allowance for expected losses associated with credit risk; and (iv) detail the information on financial instruments to be disclosed in explanatory notes. Resolution No. 309 will enter into effect on January 1, 2025, and it is in line with international pronouncement “IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments” issued by the IASB, applying to the individual statements of financial institutions operating in Brazil.

 

On October 20, 2023, the CVM issued Resolution No. 193, which came into effect on November 1, 2023 and establishes that publicly listed companies in Brazil (such as us), investment funds and securitization companies must prepare and disclose, subject to certain requirements, financial information reports related to sustainability and climate in accordance with international standards (IFRS S1 and IFRS S2) issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board, or ISSB. The compliance with such standards will become mandatory as of the fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2026.

 

New Regulatory Regime Applicable to Credit Derivatives

 

On April 20, 2023, the National Monetary Council, or CMN, issued Resolution No. 5,070, which entered into effect on June 1, 2023 and overhauled the rules governing the performance of credit derivative operations by financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank. The regulation considers two types of credit derivative: the credit default swap, or CDS, and the total return swap, or TRS. Among other matters, the regulation adjusts certain terms in line with the standards proposed by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, or ISDA; updates the list of institutions able to act as a counterparty receiving credit risk in transactions carried out with financial institutions; enables the possibility to specify credit indices, asset indices, baskets or reference portfolios as reference entities and obligations of the credit derivatives; permits the performance of credit derivatives with financial flows denominated or referenced in currency or price indices other than those denominating or indexing the reference obligation; permits for credit derivatives to have reference obligations of lower liquidity, as long as their pricing methodology complies with the rules contained in the regulatory framework applicable to derivatives; the expansion of the list of institutions able to act as suppliers of quoted values for the reference obligations, including regulatory or self-regulatory entities and international trading platforms; and the flexibilization of the requirement for maintaining ownership of the reference obligation by the counterparty transferring the risk, which will now be mandatory only in cases where the reference obligation is one or more credit or leasing transactions.

   
 25 
 

 

Fraud Prevention

 

The CMN and the Central Bank issued the Joint Resolution No. 6 and Resolution No. 343, which establish the obligation for financial institutions and other entities authorized by the Central Bank to share among each other information about frauds occurred within the National Financial System (Sistema Financeiro Nacional, or SFN), and Brazilian Payment System (Sistema de Pagamentos Brasileiro, or SPB), subject to the client’s prior contractual consent. The rule aims at reducing the asymmetry of data and information faced by these institutions to support procedures and controls in their fraud prevention processes, as well as improve their practices. Both resolutions entered into effect on November 1, 2023.

 

Changes to Risk Management Requirements

 

On June 29, 2023, the CMN issued Resolution No. 5,089, which amends prior regulation and introduces changes to risk management requirements applicable to financial institutions, such as us. Previously, country and transfer risks were included in the definition of credit risk. Pursuant to the new rule, they will now be considered autonomous risks. Under the new rule, country risk is defined as the possibility of losses associated or incurred due to events related to foreign jurisdictions, which includes sovereign risk, in the case of exposure to the central government of a foreign jurisdiction; and indirect country risk, in case of an event related to a foreign jurisdiction other than the one where the counterparty or the issuer of the risk mitigating instrument is located, associated with the exposure assumed by the applicable financial conglomerate, when the counterparty or the issuer may be significantly impacted by the respective event.

 

Transfer risk is now defined as the possibility of occurrence of obstacles in the currency conversion of the funds required for the settlement of obligations towards the financial conglomerate if these funds are held in a jurisdiction other than that where the respective settlement will take place.

 

The amendments introduced by Resolution No. 5,089 will enter into effect on January 1, 2024.

 

Limitations on Interest Rates Charged on Revolving Credit Charged in Connection with The Financing of Credit Card and Other Post-Paid Instrument Invoices

 

On October 3, 2023, the President of Brazil sanctioned Law No. 14,690, which introduces limitations to the interest rates charged on revolving credit charged in connection with the financing of credit card and other post-paid instrument invoices and ratifies the emergency program for renegotiation of debts of individuals in default depending on the category the debtor is, which in turn depends on the size of the debtor’s debt (Desenrola Brasil). This law establishes limitations with respect to interest limits and financial fees charged over the financing of the outstanding balance of credit card and other post-paid instrument invoices for credit card issuers such as us, which under the law are to be defined in self-regulations to be presented by issuers and approved by the Central Bank in up to 90 days as of the publication of the law, as well as other measures to prevent debtor default. In case the self-regulations are not approved in this period, Law No. 14,690 establishes that interest and other financial fees charged over the financing of the outstanding balance of credit card and other post-paid instrument invoices may not exceed the principal amount of the financed debt.

Other Recent Developments

 

Central Bank establishes guidelines for acceptance of Bank Credit Certificates as collateral for the issuance of Financial Liquidity Lines

 

On March 3, 2023, the Central Bank defined basic guidelines for the acceptance of Bank Credit Certificates (Cédulas de Crédito Bancário, or CCBs) as eligible collateral in the context of the issuance of Financial Liquidity Lines (Linhas Financeiras de Liquidez, or LFL) by the Central Bank, which aims at directing and coordinating the market for the developments necessary for effective operation as of the first quarter of 2024. In summary, book-entry and notarial CCBs deposited in Central Depositaries of financial assets will be eligible as collateral for LFLs.

 

The LFL were established by the Central Bank in 2021, as a structural measure to improve its operational framework for the purposes of supplying liquidity to the National Financial System, whether in response to market-wide dysfunctions or specific problems in some institutions. Currently, the only assets eligible to be offered as collateral are debentures and commercial certificates. These changes are expected to be implemented in the first quarter of 2024.

 

Central Bank issues regulations on the registration and centralized deposit of real estate receivables

 

On March 28, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 308, which came into effect on May 2, 2023. Resolution No. 308 regulates the activities of registration and centralized deposit of real estate receivables associated with real estate projects, and mainly enables, at the discretion of the market participants, the use of the services provided by the registering entities and central depositaries and the structure of the systems managed by these institutions to improve the management process of real estate receivables and the broader and more transparent access to the receivables agendas by potential financiers, which could contribute to the access to better credit conditions for developers and subdivision owners.

 

The Brazilian Federal Government empowers the Central Bank to regulate virtual assets market

 

On June 13, 2023, the Brazilian government issued the Decree No. 11,563, which came into effect on June 20, 2023, and regulates the virtual assets market law (Law No. 14,478 of December 21, 2022, or Law No. 14,478), and designates the Central Bank as the authority in charge of regulating and overseeing this market within the scope of this law.

 

New Brazilian transfer pricing legislation is published

 

On June 14, 2023, Law No. 14,596 was issued and changed the transfer pricing legislation by regulating the convergence of the Brazilian model to standards applied by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD. Under the new law, the allocation of taxable profits in cross-border transactions between related parties will start in accordance with international guidelines and the arm's length principle, departing from the fixed-margin methodologies previously applied in Brazil. Several provisions of this law pend further regulation.

 

Law No. 14,596 will enter into effect on January 1, 2024. Taxpayers may opt to anticipate the effects of Law No. 14,596, pursuant to its section 45, a specific provision which entered into effect on its publication date (June 15, 2023).

 

Central Bank issues rule regulating prudential treatment for exposures to receivables from public entities (precatórios)

 

The Brazilian financial system’s current exposure to receivables from public entities (precatórios) is less than 0.1% of its assets. Nevertheless, there has been a recent trend towards an increase in these assets on the balance sheets of financial institutions. Given this context, the Central Bank decided to regulate the prudential treatment of such exposures. On October 5, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 346, which establishes specific prudential treatment for financial institutions' exposure to receivables from public entities (precatórios) by recognizing the different risks involved in each stage of the legal proceeding that recognizes the receivables are due and payable, as well as the difference between precatórios and pre-precatório payments against the Federal Government and those owed by states, the Federal District and municipalities. The resolution incorporates prior regulation that defines the procedures for calculating the portion of RWA, relating to credit risk exposures subject to the calculation of the capital requirement using a standard approach (RWACPAD), and will enter into effect on January 2, 2024.

Brazilian Congress issues Law reforming rules applicable to the perfection and enforcement of in rem collateral

 

On October 30, 2023, Bill of Law No. 4,188/2021, known as the Legal Framework for Guarantees, was sanctioned by the President of Brazil, resulting in the publication of Law No. 14,711. The rule introduces important changes to the legal framework for collateral, and the result is expected to be greater legal security, a reduction in the spread on secured loans and greater availability of credit to borrowers. Its principal aim is to tackle the current problem of dead capital in the fiduciary sale of real estate – that is, the impossibility of the same property being used as collateral more than once. Thus, Law No. 14,711 promotes the following changes to Brazilian civil law in order to resolve the issue: (i) allowing a new fiduciary sale of the same property; (ii) the extension of the current guarantee to a new debt; and (iii) the introduction of the collateral agent into the Brazilian legal system. The new law also introduces several improvements related to the perfection and extrajudicial enforcement of collateral, including amendments and revocations of outdated laws, changes to collateral registration rules etc.

 

The Central Bank issues rule regarding the registration of credit card receivables

 

On October 30, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 349, which entered into effect on November 3, 2023, establishes the need for registration of receivables arising from transactions within the scope of payment schemes based on postpaid accounts (i.e., credit cards and other postpaid payment instruments) that are part of the Brazilian payment system. This rule improves measures adopted by prior rule that already aimed the time effectiveness for merchants to terminate prepayment of receivables agreements with acquirers. Merchant acquiring payment institutions (such as our subsidiary, Redecard Instituição de Pagamento S.A.) and registration entities have until April 1, 2024 to comply with these new obligations.

 

Central Bank digital currency, the “Real Digital,” or DREX

Currently, the Central Bank is holding a pilot project with respect to the creation of a national digital currency, called DREX. There are several rules governing the pilot project, such as Vote No. 31/2023, issued on March 6, 2023, pursuant to which the Central Bank reviewed the guidelines applicable to the DREX involving, among other matters (i) that tokenized assets will follow their respective regulatory regimes, so as not to generate asymmetry between the current and tokenized forms of these assets; (ii) the emphasis on the design of a distributed ledger technology, or DLT, that enables the registration of assets of various natures and the incorporation of technologies with smart contracts and programmable currency; and (iii) total adherence to the regulations concerning secrecy, data protection, and anti-money laundering.

 

Additionally, on April 27, 2023, the Central Bank issued Resolution No. 315, which establishes formal rules applicable to the pilot project of the “Real Digital” and institutes the Executive Management Committee of the “Real Digital” platform.

 

Resolution No. 315 provides that a select group of financial institutions subject to Central Bank supervision and that necessarily have the capacity to test, based on their corresponding business model, transactions involving the issuance, redemption or transfer of financial assets, as well as executing the simulation of financial flows resulting from trading events, when applicable to financial assets subject to the test, would be allowed to participate in the pilot project. On May 24, 2023, the regulator disclosed a list of 14 selected participants, which included us. The Central Bank will begin incorporating participants into the Real Digital Pilot platform by mid-June 2023.

 

Resolution No. 315 also establishes that, during the conduction of the pilot project, a forum will be created for the exchange of information and adequate orientation of the expectations in relation to the development of the “Real Digital” platform and the proposed tests.

 

Brazilian Senate approves Brazilian consumption tax reform

 

   
 28 
 

On November 8, 2023, the Brazilian Senate approved the consumption tax reform. The tax reform provides for the replacement of 5 taxes by two new value-added taxes, the Tax on Goods and Services (Imposto sobre Bens e Serviços, or IBS) and the Contribution on Goods and Services (Contribuição sobre Bens e Serviços, or CBS) within a 7-year transition period. The current taxes on consumption that will be replaced by the IBS and CBS include (i) tax on distribution of goods and services (Imposto sobre Circulação de Mercadorias e Serviços, or ICMS); (ii) tax on services (Imposto sobre Serviços, or ISS); (iii) tax on manufactured products (Imposto sobre Produtos Industrializados, or IPI); (iv) the Profit Participation Program Contribution (Programa de Integração Social, or PIS), and Social Security Financing Contribution (Contribuição para o Financiamento da Seguridade Social, or COFINS). The approved text of the tax reform also provides authorization for the Brazilian government to introduce a selective tax on goods and services that are harmful to health and/or the environment.

 

The tax reform is now under review by the Brazilian House of Representatives, for approval or new amendments, upon which it will return to the Senate (depending on the relevance of the changes) or be sent for presidential sanctioning.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - "Interim Financial Reporting" issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these consolidated financial statements based on our review.

 

Scope of review

 

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial Information (NBC TR 2410 - "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" and ISRE 2410 - "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity", respectively). A review of financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

Conclusion

 

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. and its subsidiaries as at September 30, 2023, and the consolidated financial performance for the quarter and nine-month period then ended and its consolidated cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, in accordance with IAS 34.

b) New accounting standards changes and interpretations of existing standards

I - Accounting standards applicable for period ended September 30, 2023

    •   IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts: The pronouncement replaces IFRS 4 – Insurance Contracts. IFRS 17 is applicable to all insurance and reinsurance contracts held as from January 1, 2023, with a transition date of January 1, 2022 for comparative purposes. The modified retrospective approach was adopted.

Transition to IFRS 17

The main changes identified by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING due to the adoption of IFRS 17 are related to the aggregation and measurement of insurance contracts and private pension. Further details on the material accounting policies adopted are included in Note 2d.

(i) Aggregation and Measurement of Insurance Contracts and Private Pension

IFRS 17 requires that insurance contracts be grouped in portfolios considering similar risks, their management, the contract issue period and the expected profitability at the time of initial recognition. The groups of insurance contracts and private pension are made up of contracts issued in the quarter.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING grouped insurance and health products in the Insurance portfolio and supplementary pension plans in the Private Pension portfolio.

The Insurance portfolio is made up mainly of products which cover life and property, divided into groups of contracts with the coverage period of each contract is one year or less and contracts of the coverage period longer. The Private Pension portfolio is made up of products with coverage for survival and risk of death and disability, comprising three groups: risk coverage plans and survival plans with and without direct participation features.

For measurement of the groups of insurance contracts and private pension, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING adopts the three measurement approaches: BBA, VFA and PAA, considering the characteristics of the existing insurance contracts and private pension: 

    •   Building Block Approach (BBA): applicable to all insurance contracts without direct participation features, corresponds to the standard model. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING applied this approach to insurance contracts and private pension with coverage over 1 year or which are onerous.

    •   Variable Fee Approach (VFA): applicable to insurance contracts with direct participation features are insurance contracts that are substantially investment-related service contracts under which an entity promises an investment return based on underlying items. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING applied this approach to the Free Benefit Generating Plan (PGBL) and Free Benefit Generating Life Plan (VGBL) private pension plans, since the contributions made by insured parties have a return based on the profitability of the investment fund specially organized in which funds are invested and the insured party has the possibility of earning income after the accumulation period.

    •   Premium Allocation Approach (PAA): applicable to insurance contracts lasting up to 12 months or when they produce results similar to those that would be obtained if the standard model were used. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING applied this approach to insurance contracts whose coverage periods are equal to or less than one year.

The initial recognition of groups of insurance contracts and private pension is performed by the total of:

    •   Contractual service margin, which represents the unearned profit that will be recognized as it provides insurance contract service in the future. 

    •   Fulfillment cash flows, composed of the present value of estimated cash inflows and outflows of funds over the period covered by the portfolio, risk adjusted for non-financial risk. The risk adjustment for non-financial risk is the compensation that the entity requires for bearing the uncertainty about the amount and timing of the cash flows that arises from non-financial risk.

The Assets and Liabilities of insurance contracts and private pension are subsequently segregated between:

F-8 
 

    •   Asset or Liability for Remaining Coverage: represented by the fulfillment cash flows related to future services and the contractual service margin. The appropriation of the contractual service margin and losses (or reversals) in onerous contracts are recognized in the Operating Income from Insurance Contracts and Private Pension, net of Reinsurance. In the Private Pension PGBL and VGBL portfolios, the contractual service margin is recognized according to the provision of the management service and insurance risks, and in the other portfolios, recognition is on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

    •   Asset or Liability for Incurred Claims: represented by the fulfillment cash flows referring to services already provided, that are, amounts pending financial settlement related to claims and other expenses incurred. Changes in the fulfillment cash flows, including those arising from an increase in the amount recognized due to claims and expenses incurred in the period, are recognized in the Operating Income from Insurance Contracts and Private Pension, net of Reinsurance.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING adopted the modified retrospective approach due to unavailability of historical data, using reasonable and supportable information to measure the insurance contracts and private pension in effect on the transition date. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING used the permitted modification and opted for a single grouping of contracts in accordance with its products and portfolios. In addition, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING estimated future cash flows on the transition date, adjusting them with historical information prior to that date. Regarding discount rates, their averages for the period between 2015 and 2021 were considered. The insurance contractual margin was established after applying the risk adjustment for non-financial risk to the future cash flows determined.

For portfolios of long-term insurance contracts and private pension, except for Private Pension PGBL and VGBL portfolios, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING opted for recognizing changes in discount rates in Other Comprehensive Income, that is, the Financial Income from Insurance Contracts and Private Pension will be segregated between Other Comprehensive Income and income for the period, with no effect on the transition date. In the portfolios of short-term insurance and Private Pension PGBL and VGBL, the financial income is fully recognized in income for the period. 

(ii) Redesignation of Financial Assets

As IFRS 17 changed the measurement of insurance contracts, which are now recognized at the present value of the obligation, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING partially redesignated, on the transition date and as permitted by the standard, the business model of financial instruments that were classified at Amortized Cost to Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income. This business model aims at maximizing the results of financial assets through sales in windows of opportunity, in addition to the receipt of principal and interest, thus allowing for better symmetry between assets and liabilities.

These changes are effective for fiscal years starting January 1st, 2024, with retrospective application. Analyses regarding possible changes in disclosure will be completed by the date the standard becomes effective.

c) Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the IFRS requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements, due to uncertainties and the high level of subjectivity involved in the recognition and measurement of certain items. Estimates and judgments that present a significant risk and may have a material impact on the values ​​of assets and liabilities are disclosed below. Actual results may differ from those established by these estimates and judgments.

I - Consolidation

Subsidiaries are all those in which ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s involvement exposes it or entitles it to variable returns and where ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING can affect these returns through its influence on the entity. The existence of control is assessed continuously. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date control is established to the date on which it ceases to exist. 

The consolidated financial statements are prepared using consistent accounting policies. Intercompany asset and liability account balances, income accounts and transaction values have been eliminated.

II - Fair value of financial instruments not traded in active markets, including derivatives

The fair value of financial instruments, including derivatives that are not traded in active markets, is calculated by using valuation techniques based on assumptions that consider market information and conditions. The main assumptions are: historical data and information on similar transactions. For more complex or illiquid instruments, significant judgment is necessary to determine the model used with the selection of specific inputs and, in certain cases, evaluation adjustments are applied to the model amount or price quoted for financial instruments that are not actively traded.

F-11 
 

 

III - Effective interest rate

For the calculation of the effective interest rate, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument, but without considering future credit losses. The calculation includes all commissions paid or received between parties to the contract, transaction costs, and all other premiums or discounts. 

Interest revenue is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset. In the case of purchased or originated credit impaired financial assets, the adjusted effective interest rate is applied, taking into account the expected credit loss, to the amortized cost of the financial asset.

IV - Modification of financial assets

The factors used to determine whether there has been substantial modification of a contract are: evaluation if there is a renegotiation that is not part of the original contractual terms, significant change to contractual cash flows and significant extensions of the term of the transaction due to the debtor's financial constraints, significant changes to the interest rate and change to the currency in which the transaction is denominated.

V - Transfer and write-off of financial assets

When there are no reasonable expectations of recovery of a financial asset, considering historical curves, its total or partial write-off is carried out concurrently with the use of the related allowance for expected credit loss, with no material effects on the Consolidated Statement of Income of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are accounted for as income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Thus, financial assets are written off, either totally or partially, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering a financial asset or when ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING substantially transfers all risks and benefits of ownership and said transfer is qualified to be written off.

VI - Expected credit loss

The measurement of expected credit loss requires the application of significant assumptions and use of quantitative models. Management exercises its judgment in the assessment of the adequacy of the expected loss amounts resulting from models and, according to its experience, makes adjustments that may result from certain client’ credit condition or temporary adjustments resulting from situations or new circumstances that have not been reflected in the modeling yet.

The main assumptions are:

    •   Term to maturity: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING considers the maximum contractual period during which it will be exposed to a financial instrument’s credit risk. However, the estimated useful life of assets that do not have fixed maturity date is based on the period of exposure to credit risk. Additionally, all contractual terms are taken into account when determining the expected life, including prepayment and rollover options. 

    •   Prospective information: IFRS 9 requires a balanced and impartial estimate of credit loss that includes forecasts of future economic conditions. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses macroeconomic forecasts and public information with projections prepared internally to determine the impact of these estimates on the calculation of expected credit loss. The main prospective information used to determine the expected loss is related to Selic Rate, Credit Default Swap (CDS), unemployment rate, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), wages, industrial production and retail sales. 

    •   Macroeconomic scenarios: This information involves inherent risks, market uncertainties and other factors that may give rise to results different from those expected.

    •   Probability-weighted loss scenarios: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses weighted scenarios to determine credit loss expected over a suitable observation horizon adequate to classification in stages, considering the projection based on economic variables.

    •   Determining criteria for significant increase or decrease in credit risk: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING determines triggers (indicators) of significant increase in the credit risk of a financial asset since its initial recognition. The migration of the financial asset to an earlier stage occurs with a consistent reduction in credit risk, mainly characterized by the non-activation of credit deterioration triggers for at least 6 months. Triggers are determined on an individual or collective basis. For collective assessment purposes, financial assets are grouped based on characteristics of shared credit risk, considering the type of instrument, credit risk classifications, initial recognition date, remaining term, industry, among other significant factors.

F-12 
 

   

VII - Goodwill impairment

The review of goodwill due to impairment reflects the Management's best estimate for future cash flows of Cash Generating Units (CGU), with the identification of the CGU and estimate of their fair value less costs to sell and/or value in use. 

To determine this estimate, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING adopts the discounted cash flow methodology for a period of 5 years, macroeconomic assumptions, growth rate and discount rate.

The discount rate generally reflects financial and economic variables, such as the risk-free interest rate and a risk premium.

Cash-Generating Units or CGU groups are identified at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.

VIII - Deferred income tax and social contribution

Deferred tax assets are recognized only in relation to deductible temporary differences, tax losses and social contribution loss carryforwards for offset only to the extent that it is probable that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING will generate future taxable profit for its use. The expected realization of deferred tax assets is based on the projection of future taxable profits and technical studies.

IX - Defined benefit pension plans

The current amount of pension plans is obtained from actuarial calculations, which use assumptions such as discount rate, which is appropriated at the end of each year and used to determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows. To determine the appropriate discount rate, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING considers the interest rates of National Treasury Notes that have maturity terms similar to the terms of the respective liabilities.

The main assumptions for Pension plan obligations are partly based on current market conditions.

X - Provisions and contingencies

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING periodically reviews its provisions and contingencies which are evaluated based on management´s best estimates, taking into account the opinion of legal counsel when there is a likelihood that financial resources will be required to settle the obligations and the amounts may be reasonably estimated.

Contingencies classified as probable losses are recognized in the Balance Sheet under Provisions.

Contingent amounts are measured using appropriate models and criteria that permit their measurement, despite the uncertainty inherent in timing and amounts.

XI - Insurance contracts and private pension

To estimate fulfillment cash flows and expected profitability (contractual service margin), ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses actuarial models and assumptions, exercising judgment mainly to establish: (i) the aggregation of contracts; (ii) the period of service provided; (iii) discount rate; (iv) actuarial calculation models; (v) risk adjustment for non-financial risk models and confidence levels; (vi) the group's level of profitability; and (vii) contract coverage unit. The main assumptions used are: (i) inflow assumptions: contributions and premiums; (ii) outflow assumptions: conversion rates into income, redemptions, cancellation rate and loss ratio; (iii) discount rate; (iv) biometric tables; and (v) risk adjustment for non-financial risk. 

Regarding the assessment components separation of an insurance contract, the investment component that exists in ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s private pension contracts of is highly interrelated with the insurance component, that is, the investment component (accumulation phase) is necessary to measure the payments to be made to the insured party (benefit granting phase).

F-13 
 

 

The assumptions used in the measurement of insurance contracts and private pension are reviewed periodically and are based on best practices and analysis of the experience of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. 

The discount rate used by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING to bring the projected cash flows from insurance contracts and private pension to present value is obtained by building a Term Structure of Interest Rates with internal modeling, which represents a set of vertices that contain the expectation of an interest rate associated with a term (or maturity). In addition to considering the characteristics of the indexing units of each portfolio (IGPM, IPCA and TR), the discount rate has a component that aims at reflecting the differences between the liquidity characteristics of the financial instruments that substantiate the rates observed in the market and the liquidity characteristics of insurance contracts (a “bottom-up” approach). 

Specifically for insurance products, cash flows are projected using the method known as the run-off triangle on a quarterly basis. For private pension plans, cash flows are projected based on assumptions applicable to the product.

Risk adjustment for non-financial risk is obtained by resampling based on claims data by grouping, using the Monte Carlo statistical method. Resampling is brought to present value using the discount rate applied to future cash flows. Based on this, percentiles proportional to the confidence level are calculated, determined in an interval between 60% and 70%, depending on the group.

Biometric tables represent the probability of death, survival or disability of an insured party. For death and survival estimates, the latest Brazilian Market Insurer Experience tables (BR-EMS) are used, adjusted by the criterion of development of longevity expectations of the G Scale, and for the estimates of entry into disability, the Álvaro Vindas table is used.

The conversion rate into income reflects the historical expectation of converting the balances accumulated by insured parties into retirement benefits, and the decision is influenced by behavioral, economic and tax factors.

I.II - Business combinations

In general, a business consists of an integrated set of activities and assets that may be conducted and managed so as to provide a return, in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits, to investors or other stockholders, members or participants. If there is goodwill in a set of activities and assets transferred, it is presumed to be a business.

The acquisition method is used to account for business combinations, except for those classified as under common control.

Acquisition cost is measured at the fair value of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the acquisition date. Acquired assets and assumed liabilities and contingent liabilities identifiable in a business combination are initially measured at fair value at the date of acquisition, regardless of the existence of non-controlling interests. When the amount paid, plus non-controlling interests, is higher than the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, the difference will be accounted for as goodwill. On the other hand, if the difference is negative, it will be treated as negative goodwill and the amount will be recognized directly in income.

I.III - Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized, but its recoverable value is assessed semiannually or when there is an indication of impairment loss using an approach that involves the identification of Cash Generating Units (CGU) and the estimate of its fair value less the cost to sell and/or its value in use.

The breakdown of Goodwill and Intangible assets is described in Note 14.

I.IV - Capital Transactions with non-controlling stockholders

Changes in an ownership interest in a subsidiary, which do not result in a loss of control, are accounted for as capital transactions and any difference between the amount paid and the carrying amount of non-controlling stockholders is recognized directly in stockholders' equity.

II - Foreign currency translation

II.I - Functional and presentation currency

The Consolidated Financial Statements of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING are presented in Brazilian Reais, its functional and presentation currency. For each subsidiary, joint venture or investment in associates, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING defines the functional currency as the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates.

II.II - Foreign currency operations

Foreign currency operations are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of income, unless they are related to cash flow hedges and hedges of net investment in foreign operations, which are recognized in stockholders’ equity.

III - Cash and cash equivalents

Defined as cash and current accounts with banks, shown in the Balance Sheet under the headings Cash, Interbank Deposits and Securities purchased under agreements to resell (Collateral Held) with original maturities not exceeding 90 days.

IV - Financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are offset against each other and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset them and the intention to settle them on a net basis, or to simultaneously realize the asset and settle the liability.

IV.I - Initial recognition and derecognition

Financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value.

F-16 
 

 

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized, respectively, on the trading date.

Financial assets are partially or fully derecognized when:

    •   the contractual rights to the cash flows of the financial asset expire, or

    •   ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING transfers the financial asset and this transfer qualifies for derecognition.

The financial liabilities are derecognized when they are extinguished, i.e., when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING substantially transfers all risks and benefits of its property. In the event it is not possible to identify the transfer of all risks and benefits, the control should be assessed to determine the continuous involvement related to the transaction. 

If there is a retention of risks and benefits, the financial asset continues to be recorded and a liability is recognized for the consideration received.

IV.II Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets

Financial assets are classified in the following categories:

    •   Amortized cost: used when financial assets are managed to obtain contractual cash flows, consisting solely of payments of principal and interest.

    •   Fair value through other comprehensive income: used when financial assets are held both for obtaining contractual cash flows, consisting solely of payments of principal and interest, and for sale.

    •   Fair value through profit or loss: used for financial assets that do not meet the aforementioned criteria.

The classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets depend on:

    •   The business model under which they are managed.

    •   The characteristics of their cash flows (Solely Payment of Principal and Interest Test – SPPI Test).

Business model: represents how financial assets are managed to generate cash flows and does not depend on the Management’s intention regarding an individual instrument. Financial assets may be managed with the purpose of: i) obtaining contractual cash flows; ii) obtaining contractual cash flows and sale; or iii) others. To assess business models, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING considers risks that affect the performance of the business model; how the managers of the business are compensated; and how the performance of the business model is assessed and reported to Management. 

When a financial asset is subject to business models i) or ii) the application of the SPPI Test is required.

SPPI Test: assessment of cash flows generated by a financial instrument for the purpose of checking whether they represent solely payments of principal and interest. To fit into this concept, cash flows should include only consideration for the time value of money and credit risk. If contractual terms introduce risk exposure or cash flow volatilities, such as exposure to changes in prices of equity instruments or prices of commodities, the financial asset is classified at fair value through profit or loss. Hybrid contracts must be assessed as a whole, including all embedded characteristics. The accounting of a hybrid contract that contains an embedded derivative is performed on a joint basis, i.e. the whole instrument is measured at fair value through profit or loss.

F-17 
 

 

Amortized cost

Amortized cost is the amount at which the financial asset or liability is measured at initial recognition, plus adjustments made under the effective interest method, less repayments of principal and interest, and any provision for expected credit loss.

Fair value

Fair value is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or that would be paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING classifies the fair value hierarchy according to the relevance of data observed in the measurement process.

Details of the fair value of financial instruments, including Derivatives, and of the hierarchy of fair value are given in Note 28.

The adjustment to fair value of financial assets and liabilities is recognized:

    •   In stockholders' equity for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

    •   In the Consolidated Statement of Income, under the heading Income of Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss, for the other financial assets and liabilities.

Average cost is used to determine the gains and losses realized on disposal of financial assets at fair value, which are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income as Interest and similar income and Income of Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss. Dividends on assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as Interest and similar income when it is probable that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING 's right to receive such dividends is assured. 

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in an entity’s assets, after the deduction of all its liabilities, such as Shares and Units.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING subsequently measures all its equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss, except when Management opts, on initial recognition, to irrevocably designate an equity instrument at fair value through other comprehensive income when it is held for a purpose other than only generating returns. When this option is selected, gains and losses on the fair value of the instrument are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and are not subsequently reclassified to the Consolidated Statement of Income, even on sale. Dividends continue to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as Interest and similar income, when ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s right to receive them is assured. 

Gains and losses on equity instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Expected credit loss 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING makes a forward-looking assessment of the expected credit loss on financial assets measured at amortized cost or through other comprehensive income, loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts:

    •   Financial assets: loss is measured at present value of the difference between contractual cash flows and the cash flows that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING expects to receive.

    •   Loan commitments: expected loss is measured at present value of the difference between contractual cash flows that would be due if the commitment was drawn down and the cash flows that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING expects to receive.

    •   Financial guarantees: the loss is measured at the difference between the payments expected for refunding the counterparty and the amounts that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING expects to recover. 

F-18 
 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING applies a three-stage approach to measuring the expected credit loss, in which financial assets migrate from one stage to the other in accordance with changes in credit risk.

    •   Stage 1 – 12-month expected credit loss: represents default events possible within 12 months. Applicable to financial assets which are not credit impaired when purchased or originated.

    •   Stage 2 – Lifetime expected credit loss of financial instrument: considers all possible default events. Applicable to financial assets originated which are not credit impaired when originated or purchased but for which credit risk has increased significantly.

    •   Stage 3 – Credit loss expected for credit-impaired assets: considers all possible default events. Applicable to financial assets which are credit impaired when purchased or originated. The measurement of assets classified in this stage is different from Stage 2 due to the recognition of interest income by applying the effective interest rate to amortized cost (net of provision) rather than to the gross carrying amount.

An asset will migrate between stages as its credit risk increases or decreases. Therefore, a financial asset that migrated to stages 2 and 3 may return to stage 1, unless it was purchased or originated as a credit impaired financial asset.

Macroeconomic scenarios

Forward-looking information is based on macroeconomic scenarios that are reassessed annually or when market conditions so require. Additional information is described in Note 32.

Modification of contractual cash flows

When contractual cash flows of a financial asset are renegotiated or otherwise modified and this does not substantially change its terms and conditions, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING does not derecognize it. However, the gross carrying amount of this financial asset is recalculated as the present value of the renegotiated or changed contractual cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate and a modification gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Any costs or fees incurred adjust the modified carrying amount and are amortized over the remaining term of the financial asset.

If, on the other hand, the renegotiation or change substantially modifies the terms and conditions of the financial asset, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING derecognizes the original asset and recognizes a new one. Accordingly, the renegotiation date is taken as the initial recognition date of the new asset for expected credit loss calculation purposes, and to determine significant increases in credit risk. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING also assesses if the new financial asset may be considered as a purchased or originated credit impaired financial asset, particularly when the renegotiation was motivated by the debtor’s financial constraints. Differences between the carrying amount of the original asset and fair value of the new asset are immediately recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income. 

The effects of changes in cash flows of financial assets and other details about methodologies and assumptions adopted by Management to measure the allowance for expected credit loss, including the use of prospective information, are detailed in Note 32. 

IV.III - Classification and subsequent measurement of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost, except for:

    •   Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss: this classification applied to derivatives and other financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss to reduce “accounting mismatches”. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING irrevocably designates financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss in the initial recognition (fair value option), when the option eliminates or significantly reduces measurement or recognition inconsistencies.

    •   Loan commitments and financial guarantees: see details in Note 2d IV.VlIl. 

F-19 
 

 

Modification of financial liabilities

A debt instrument change or substantial terms modification of a financial liability is accounted as a derecognition of the original financial liability and a new one is recognized.

A substantial change to contractual terms occurs when the discounted present value of cash flows under the new terms, including any fees paid/received and discounted using the original effective interest rate, is at least 10% different from discounted present value of the remaining cash flow of the original financial liabilities.

IV.IV - Securities purchased under agreements to resell

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING purchases financial assets with a resale commitment (resale agreements) and sells securities with a repurchase commitment (repurchase agreement) of financial assets. Resale and repurchase agreements are accounted for under Securities purchased under agreements to resell and Securities sold under repurchase agreements, respectively.

The difference between the sale and repurchase prices is treated as interest and recognized over the life of the agreements using the effective interest rate method.

The financial assets taken as collateral in resale agreements can be used as collateral for repurchase agreements if provided for in the agreements or can be sold.

IV.V - Derivatives

All derivatives are accounted for as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

The valuation of active hybrid contracts that are subject to IFRS 9 is carried out as a whole, including all embedded characteristics, whereas the accounting is carried out on a joint basis, i.e. each instrument is measured at fair value through profit or loss.

When a contract has a main component outside the scope of IFRS 9, such as a lease agreement receivable or an insurance contract, or even a financial liability, embedded derivatives are treated as separate financial instruments if:

    •   Their characteristics and economic risks are not closely related to those of the main component.

    •   The separate instrument meets the definition of a derivative.

    •   The underlying instrument is not booked at fair value through profit or loss.

These embedded derivatives are accounted for separately at fair value, with variations recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as Adjustments to Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING will continue applying all the hedge accounting requirements of IAS 39; however, it may adopt the provisions of IFRS 9, if Management so decides.

According to this standard, derivatives may be designated and qualified as hedging instruments for accounting purposes and, the method for recognizing gains or losses of fair value will depending on the nature of the hedged item.

At the beginning of a hedging transaction, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy. The hedge is assessed on an ongoing basis to determine if it has been highly effective throughout all periods of the Financial Statements for which it was designated. 

IAS 39 describes three hedging strategies: fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, and hedge of net investments in a foreign operation. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses derivatives as hedging instruments under all three hedge strategies, as detailed in Note 7.

F-20 
 

 

Fair value hedge

The following practices are adopted for these operations:

    •   The gain or loss arising from the remeasurement of the hedging instrument at fair value is recognized in income.

    •   The gain or loss arising from the hedged item, attributable to the effective portion of the hedged risk, is applied to the book value of the hedged item and is also recognized in income.

When a derivative expires or is sold or a hedge no longer meets the hedge accounting criteria or in the event the designation is revoked, the hedge accounting must be prospectively discontinued. In addition, any adjustment to the book value of the hedged item must be amortized in income.

Cash flow hedge

For derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments in a cash flow hedge, the practices are:

    •   The effective portion of gains or losses on derivatives is recognized directly in Other comprehensive income – Cash flow hedge.

    •   The portion of gain or loss on derivatives that represents the ineffective portion or on hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness is recognized in income.

Amounts originally recorded in Other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to Income are recognized in the caption Income of financial assets and Liabilities at fair value through profit or loss at the same time that the corresponding income or expense item of the financial hedge item affects income. For non-financial hedge items, the amounts originally recognized in Other comprehensive income are included in the initial cost of the corresponding asset or liability.

When a derivative expires or is sold, when hedge accounting criteria are no longer met or when the entity revokes the hedge accounting designation, any cumulative gain or loss existing in Other comprehensive income will be reclassified to income at the time the expected transaction occurs or is no longer expected to occur.

Hedge of net investments in foreign operations

The hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, including the hedge of a monetary item that is booked as part of the net investment, is accounted for in a manner similar to a cash flow hedge:

    •   The portion of gain or loss on the hedging instrument determined as effective is recognized in Other comprehensive income.

    •   The ineffective portion is recognized in income.

Gains or losses on the hedging instrument related to the effective portion of the hedge which are recognized in Other comprehensive income are reclassified to income for the period when the foreign operation is partially or totally sold.

IV.VI - Loan operations

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING classifies a loan as non-performing if the payment of the principal or interest has been overdue for 60 days or more. In this case, accrual of interest is no longer recognized.

IV.VII - Premium bonds plans

In Brazil, Premium bonds plans are regulated by the insurance regulator. These plans do not meet the definition of an insurance contract under IFRS 17, and therefore they are classified as a financial liability at amortized cost under IFRS 9.

F-21 
 

 

Revenue from premium bonds plans is recognized during the period of the contract and measured as the difference between the amount deposited by the customer and the amount that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has to reimburse. 

IV.VIII - Loan commitments and financial guarantees

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING recognizes as an obligation in the Balance Sheet, on the issue date, the fair value of commitments for loans and financial guarantees. The fair value is generally represented by the fee charged to the customer. This amount is amortized over the term of the instrument and is recognized in the Statement of Income under the heading Commissions and Banking Fees.

After issue, if ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING concludes based on the best estimate, that the expected credit loss in relation to the guarantee issued is higher than the fair value less accumulated amortization, this amount is replaced by a provision for loss. 

V - Investments in associates and joint ventures

V.I - Associates

Associates are companies in which the investor has a significant influence but does not hold control. Investments in these companies are initially recognized at cost of acquisition and subsequently accounted for using the equity method. Investments in associates and joint ventures include the goodwill identified upon acquisition, net of any cumulative impairment loss.

V.II - Joint ventures

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has joint ventures whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s share in profits or losses of its associates and joint ventures after acquisition is recognized in the Consolidated statement of income. Its share of the changes in the share in other comprehensive income of corresponding stockholders’ equity of its associates and joint ventures is recognized in its own capital reserves. The cumulative changes after acquisition are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s share of losses in associates and joint ventures is equal to or more than the value of its interest, including any other receivables, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING does not recognize additional losses, unless it has incurred any obligations or made payments on behalf of the associates and joint ventures.

Unrealized profits on transactions between ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the interest of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of impairment of the transferred asset. The accounting policies on associates and joint ventures entities are changed, as necessary, to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

If its interest in the associates and joint ventures decreases, but ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING retains significant influence or joint control, only the proportional amount of the previously recognized amounts in Other comprehensive income is reclassified in Income, when appropriate. 

VI - Lease operations (Lessee)

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING leases mainly real estate properties (underlying assets) to carry out its business activities. The initial recognition occurs when the agreement is signed, in the heading Other Liabilities, which corresponds to the total future payments at present value as a counterparty to the right-of-use assets, depreciated under the straight-line method for the lease term and tested semiannually to identify possible impairment losses.

The financial expense corresponding to interest on lease liabilities is recognized in the heading Interest and Similar Expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

F-22 
 

 

VII - Fixed assets

Fixed assets are booked at their acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation, and adjusted for impairment, if applicable. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method using rates based on the estimated useful lives of these assets. Such rates and other details are presented in Note 13.

The residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each period.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING reviews its assets in order to identify indications of impairment in their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of its fair value less the cost to sell and its value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which independent cash flows can be identified (cash-generating units). The assessment may be made at an individual asset level when the fair value less the cost to sell can be reliably determined. 

Gains and losses on disposals of fixed assets are recognized in the Consolidated statement of income under Other income or General and administrative expenses.

VIII - Intangible assets

Intangible assets are non-physical assets, including software and other assets, and are initially recognized at cost. Intangible assets are recognized when they arise from legal or contractual rights, their costs can be reliably measured, and in the case of intangible assets not arising from separate acquisitions or business combinations, it is probable that future economic benefits may arise from their use. The balance of intangible assets refers to acquired assets or those internally generated.

Intangible assets may have definite or indefinite useful lives. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but periodically tested in order to identify any impairment.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING semiannually assesses its intangible assets in order to identify whether any indications of impairment exist, as well as possible reversal of previous impairment losses. If such indications are found, intangible assets are tested for impairment. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of its fair value less the cost to sell and its value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which independent cash flows can be identified (cash-generating units). The assessment may be made at an individual asset level when the fair value less the cost to sell can be reliably determined. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses the cost model to measure its intangible assets after its initial recognition. 

The breakdown of Goodwill and Intangible assets is described in Note 14.

F-23 
 

 

IX - Assets held for sale

Assets held for sale are recognized in the balance sheet under the heading Other assets when they are actually repossessed or there is intention to sell. These assets are initially recorded at the lower of: (i) the fair value of the asset less the estimated selling expenses, or (ii) the carrying amount of the related asset held for sale.

X - Income tax and social contribution

There are two components of the provision for income tax and social contribution: current and deferred.

The current component is approximately the total of taxes to be paid or recovered during the reporting period.

Deferred income tax and social contribution, represented by deferred tax assets and liabilities, is obtained based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and the amounts reported at the end of each period.

The income tax and social contribution expense is recognized in the Consolidated statement of income under Income tax and social contribution, except when it refers to items directly recognized in Other comprehensive income, such as: tax on fair value of financial assets measured at fair value through Other comprehensive income, post-employment benefits and tax on cash flow hedges and hedges of net investment in foreign operations. Subsequently, these items are recognized in income upon realization of the gain/loss on the instruments.

Changes in tax legislation and rates are recognized in the Consolidated statement of income in the period in which they are enacted. Interest and fines are recognized in the Consolidated statement of income under General and administrative expenses.

To determine the proper level of provisions for taxes to be maintained for uncertain tax positions, the approach applied, is that a tax benefit is recognized if it is more likely than not that a position can be sustained, under the assumptions for recognition, detailed in item 2d XIV. 

XI - Insurance contracts and private pension

To measure the groups of insurance contracts and private pension, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING will use the three measurement approaches below, considering the characteristics of the contracts:

    •   Standard Model (Building Block Approach - BBA): insurance contracts without direct participation feature with coverage longer than 1 year or that are onerous. The Insurance portfolio basically includes Life, Health, Credit Life and Housing, the first two of which are onerous. The Private Pension portfolio includes Traditional Plans and Death and Disability Risk Coverage Plans, the former being onerous. Insurance contracts and private pension classified as onerous are not actively sold, and the contractual conditions of the life insurance contracts in force are different and classified as profitable.

    •   Variable Fee Approach (VFA): PGBL and VGBL private pension plans, whose contributions are remunerated at the fair value of the investment fund specially organized in which the funds are invested.

    •   Simplified Model (Premium Allocation Approach - PAA): insurance contracts and reinsurance contracts held, whose coverage periods are equal to or less than one year, comprising mainly: Personal Accidents and Protected Card. As these are short-term contracts, Liability for Remaining Coverage are not discounted at present value. However, the cash flows of Liability for Incurred Claims are discounted at present value and adjusted to reflect non-financial risks, since they have payments that are made one year after a claim occurs.

XII - Post-employment benefits

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING sponsors Defined Benefit Plans and Defined Contribution Plans, which are accounted for in accordance with IAS 19 – Benefits to Employees.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is required to make contributions to government social security and labor indemnity plans, in Brazil and in other countries where it operates.

F-24 
 

 

Pension plans - Defined benefit plans

The liability or asset, as the case may be, recognized in the Balance Sheet with respect to a defined benefit plan, corresponds to the present value of defined benefit obligations at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligations are calculated annually using the projected unit credit method.

Pension plans - Defined contribution

For defined contribution plans, contributions to plans made by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, through pension plan funds, are recognized as liabilities, with a counterparty to expenses, when due. If contributions made exceed the liability for a service provided, it will be accounted for as an asset recognized at fair value, and any adjustments are recognized in Stockholders’ equity, under Other comprehensive income, in the period when they occur.

Other post-employment obligations

Like defined benefit pension plans, these obligations are assessed annually by actuarial specialists, and costs expected from these benefits are accrued over the period of employment. Gains and losses arising from changes in practices and variations in actuarial assumptions are recognized in Stockholders’ equity, under Other comprehensive income, in the period in which they occur.

XIII - Share-based payments

Share-based payments are booked for the value of equity instruments granted based on their fair value at the grant date. This cost is recognized during the vesting period of the instruments right.

The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments excluding the impact of any service commissions and fees and non-market performance vesting conditions (in particular when an employee remains with the company for specific period of time).

XIV - Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities

These are possible rights and potential obligations arising from past events for which realization depends on uncertain future events.

Contingent assets are not recognized in the Financial Statements, except when the Management of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING considers that realization is practically certain. In general they correspond to lawsuits with favorable outcomes in final and unappealable judgments and to the withdrawal of lawsuits as a result of a settlement payment received or an agreement for set-off against an existing liability.

These contingencies are evaluated based on Management’s best estimates, and are classified as:

    •   Probable: in which liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet under Provisions.

    •   Possible: which are disclosed in the Financial Statements, but no provision is recorded.

    •   Remote: which require neither a provision nor disclosure.

The amount of deposits in guarantee is adjusted in accordance with current legislation.

XV - Capital

Common and preferred shares, which for accounting purposes are equivalent to common shares but without voting rights are classified in Stockholders’ equity. The additional costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are included in Stockholders’ equity as a deduction from the proceeds, net of taxes.

F-25 
 

 

XVI - Treasury shares

Common and preferred shares repurchased are recorded in Stockholders’ equity under Treasury shares at their average purchase price.

Shares that are subsequently sold, such as those sold to grantees under ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING's share-based payment scheme, are recorded as a reduction in treasury shares, measured at the average price of treasury stock held at that date. 

The difference between the sale price and the average price of the treasury shares is recorded as a reduction or increase in Capital Reserves. The cancellation of treasury shares is recorded as a reduction in Treasury shares against Capital Reserves, at the average price of treasury shares at the cancellation date.

XVII - Dividends and interest on capital

Minimum dividend amounts established in the bylaws are recorded as liabilities at the end of each year. Any other amount above the mandatory minimum dividend is accounted for as a liability when approved by of the Board of Directors.

Interest on capital is treated for accounting purposes as a dividend, and it is presented as a reduction of stockholders' equity in the consolidated financial statements.

Dividends have been and continue to be calculated and paid on the basis of the financial statements prepared under Brazilian accounting standards and regulations for financial institutions, not these Consolidated financial statements prepared according to the IFRS.

Dividends and interest on capital are presented in Note 19. 

XVIII - Earnings per share

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING grants stock options whose dilutive effect is reflected in diluted earnings per share, with the application of the “treasury stock method", whereby earnings per share are calculated as if all the stock options had been exercised and the proceeds used to purchase shares of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. 

Earnings per share are presented in Note 25.

XIX - Segment information

Segment information disclosed is consistent with the internal reports prepared for the Executive Committee which makes the operational decisions ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has three reportable segments: (i) Retail Business, (ii) Wholesale Business and (iii) Market + Corporation.

Segment information is presented in Note 30. 

XX - Commissions and Banking Fees

Commissions and Banking Fees are recognized when ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING provides or offers services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING expects to collect in exchange for those services. A five-step model is applied to account for revenues: i) identification of the contract with a customer; ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; iii) determination of the transaction price; iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and v) revenue recognition, when performance obligations agreed upon in agreements with clients are met. Incremental costs and costs to fulfill agreements with clients are recognized as an expense as incurred. 

The main services provided by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING are: 

    •   Credit and debit cards: refer mainly to fees charged by card issuers and acquirers for processing card transactions, annuities charged for the availability and management of credit card; and the rental of Rede machines.

Note 6 - Derivatives

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING trades in derivative financial instruments with various counterparties to manage its overall exposures and to assist its customers in managing their own exposures. 

Futures - Interest rate and foreign currency futures contracts are commitments to buy or sell a financial instrument at a future date, at an agreed price or yield, and may be settled in cash or through delivery. The notional amount represents the face value of the underlying instrument. Commodity futures contracts or financial instruments are commitments to buy or sell commodities (mainly gold, coffee and orange juice) on a future date, at an agreed price, which are settled in cash. The notional amount represents the quantity of such commodities multiplied by the future price on the contract date. Daily cash settlements of price movements are made for all instruments.

Forwards - Interest rate forward contracts are agreements to exchange payments on a specified future date, based on the variation in market interest rates from trade date to contract settlement date. Foreign exchange forward contracts represent agreements to exchange the currency of one country for the currency of another at an agreed price, on an agreed settlement date. Financial instrument forward contracts are commitments to buy or sell a financial instrument on a future date at an agreed price and are settled in cash.

Swaps - Interest rate and foreign exchange swap contracts are commitments to settle in cash on a future date or dates the differentials between two specific financial indices (either two different interest rates in a single currency or two different rates each in a different currency), as applied to a notional principal amount. Swap contracts shown under Other in the table below correspond substantially to inflation rate swap contracts.

Options - Option contracts give the purchaser, for a fee, the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a financial instrument within a limited time, including a flow of interest, foreign currencies, commodities, or financial instruments at an agreed price that may also be settled in cash, based on the differential between specific indices.

Credit Derivatives - Credit derivatives are financial instruments with value deriving from the credit risk on debt issued by a third party (the reference entity), which permit one party (the buyer of the hedge) to transfer the risk to the counterparty (the seller of the hedge). The seller of the hedge must pay out as provided for in the contract if the reference entity undergoes a credit event, such as bankruptcy, default or debt restructuring. The seller of the hedge receives a premium for the hedge but, on the other hand, assumes the risk that the underlying instrument referenced in the contract undergoes a credit event, and the seller may have to make payment to the purchaser of the hedge for up to the notional amount of the credit derivative.

The total value of margins pledged in guarantee by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING was R$ 22,787 (R$ 13,504 at 12/31/2022) and was basically composed of government securities.

Further information on parameters used to manage risks, may be found in Note 32 – Risk and Capital Management.

d) Credit derivatives

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING buys and sells credit protection in order to meet the needs of its customers, to manage and mitigate its portfolios' risk.
CDS (credit default swap) is a credit derivative in which, upon a default related to the reference entity, the protection buyer is entitled to receive the amount equivalent to the difference between the face value of the CDS contract and the fair value of the liability on the date the contract was settled, also known as the recovered amount. The protection buyer does not need to hold the reference entity's debt instrument in order to receive the amounts due when a credit event occurs, as per the terms of the CDS contract.
TRS (total return swap) is a transaction in which a party swaps the total return of an asset or of a basket of assets for regular cash flows, usually interest and a guarantee against capital loss. In a TRS contract, the parties do not transfer the ownership of the assets.
ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING assesses the risk of a credit derivative based on the credit ratings attributed to the reference entity by independent credit rating agencies. Investment grade entities are those for which credit risk is rated as Baa3 or higher, as rated by Moody's, and BBB- or higher, by Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset in the balance sheet only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Derivative financial instruments and repurchased agreements not set off in the balance sheet relate to transactions in which there are enforceable master netting agreements or similar agreements, but the offset criteria have not been met in accordance with paragraph 42 of IAS 32 mainly because ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has no intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Note 7 - Hedge accounting

There are three types of hedge relations: Fair value hedge, Cash flow hedge and Hedge of net investment in foreign operations.

In hedge accounting, the groups of risk factors measured by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING are: 

    •   Interest Rate: Risk of loss in transactions subject to interest rate variations.

    •   Currency: Risk of loss in transactions subject to foreign exchange variation.

The structure of risk limits is extended to the risk factor level, where specific limits aim at improving the monitoring and understanding process, as well as avoiding concentration of these risks.

The structures designed for interest rate and exchange rate categories take into account total risk when there are compatible hedging instruments. In certain cases, management may decide to hedge a risk for the risk factor term and limit of the hedging instrument.

The other risk factors hedged by the institution are shown in Note 32. 

To protect cash flows and fair value of instruments designated as hedged items, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses derivative financial instruments and financial assets. Currently Futures Contracts, NDF (Non Deliverable Forwards), Forwards, Swaps and Financial Assets are used.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING manages risks through the economic relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, where the expectation is that these instruments will move in opposite directions and in the same proportion, with the purpose of neutralizing risk factors. 

The designated coverage ratio is always 100% of the risk factor eligible for coverage. Sources of ineffectiveness are in general related to the counterparty’s credit risk and possible mismatches of terms between the hedging instrument and the hedged item.

a) Cash flow hedge

The cash flow hedge strategies of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING consist of hedging exposure to variations in cash flows, in interest payment and currency exposure which are attributable to changes in interest rates on recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING applies cash flow hedge strategies as follows: 

Interest rate risks:

    •   Hedge of time deposits and repurchase agreements: to hedge fluctuations in cash flows of interest payments resulting from changes in the DI interest rate, through futures contracts.

    •   Hedge of asset transactions: to hedge fluctuations in cash flows of interest receipts resulting from changes in the DI rate, through futures contracts.

    •   Hedge of assets denominated in UF*: to hedge fluctuations in cash flows of interest receipts resulting from changes in the UF*, through swap contracts.

    •   Hedge of Funding: to hedge fluctuations in cash flows of interest payments resulting from changes in the TPM* rate, through swap contracts.

    •   Hedge of loan operations: to hedge fluctuations in cash flows of interest receipts resulting from changes in the TPM* rate, through swap contracts.

    •   Hedge of repurchase agreements: to hedge fluctuations in cash flows of interest received from changes in Selic (benchmark interest rate), through futures contracts.

    

F-40 
 

•   Hedging of expected highly probable transactions: to hedge the risk of variation in the amount of the commitments assumed when resulting from variation in the exchange rates.

*UF – Chilean unit of account / TPM – Monetary policy rate

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING does not use the qualitative method to evaluate the effectiveness or to measure the ineffectiveness of these strategies. 

For cash flow hedge strategies, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses the hypothetical derivative method. This method is based on a comparison of the change in the fair value of a hypothetical derivative with terms identical to the critical terms of the variable-rate liability, and this change in the fair value is considered a proxy of the present value of the cumulative change in the future cash flow expected for the hedged liability.

For strategies of deposits and repurchase agreements to resell, asset transactions and asset-backed securities under repurchase agreements, the entity frequently reestablishes the coverage ratio, since both the hedged item and the instruments change over time. This occurs because they are portfolio strategies that reflect the risk management strategy guidelines approved in the proper authority level.

The remaining balance in the reserve of cash flow hedge for which the hedge accounting is no longer applied is R$ (229) (R$ 187 at 12/31/2022).

b) Hedge of net investment in foreign operations

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING's strategies for net investments in foreign operations consist of hedging the exposure in the functional currency of the foreign operation against the functional currency of head office.
The risk hedged in this type of strategy is the currency risk.
ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING does not use the qualitative method to evaluate the effectiveness or to measure the ineffectiveness of these strategies.
Instead, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses the Dollar Offset Method, which is based on a comparison of the change in fair value (cash flow) of the hedging instrument, attributable to changes in the exchange rate and the gain (loss) arising from variations in exchange rates on the amount of investment abroad designated as the object of the hedge.

c) Fair value hedge

The fair value hedging strategy of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING consists of hedging the exposure to variation in fair value on the receipt and payment of interest on recognized assets and liabilities. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING applies fair value hedges as follows: 

 Interest rate risk and Foreign exchange risk:

    •   To protect the risk of variation in the fair value of receipt and payment of interest resulting from variations in the fair value of the variable rates and future foreign exchange rates involved, by contracting swaps and futures.

F-42 
 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING does not use the qualitative method to evaluate the effectiveness or to measure the ineffectiveness of these strategies. 

Instead, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses the percentage approach and dollar offset method: 

    •   The percentage approach is based on the calculation of change in the fair value of the revised estimate for the hedged position (hedged item) attributable to the protected risk versus the change in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument.

    •   The dollar offset method is based on the difference between the variation in the fair value of the hedging instrument and the variation in the fair value of the hedged item attributed to changes in the interest rate and foreign exchange rate.

The effects of hedge accounting on the financial position and performance of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING are presented below:

b) Dividends

Shareholders are entitled to a mandatory minimum dividend in each fiscal year, corresponding to 25% of adjusted net income, as set forth in the Bylaws.  Common and preferred shares participate equally in income distributed, after common shares have received dividends equal to the minimum annual priority dividend payable to preferred shares (R$ 0.022 non-cumulative per share).

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING monthly advances the mandatory minimum dividend, using the share position of the last day of the previous month as the calculation basis, and the payment made on the first business day of the subsequent month in the amount of R$ 0.015 per share.

Note 20 - Share-based payment

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING and its subsidiaries have share-based payment plans aimed at involving their management members and employees in the medium and long term corporate development process.
The grant of these benefits is only made in years in which there are sufficient profits to permit the distribution of mandatory dividends, limiting dilution to 0.5% of the total shares held by the controlling and minority stockholders at the balance sheet date. These programs are settled through the delivery of ITUB4 treasury shares to stockholders.
Expenses on share-based payment plans are presented in the table below:
  07/01 to 09/30/2023 07/01 to 09/30/2022 01/01 to 09/30/2023 01/01 to 09/30/2022

a) Partner plan

The program enables employees and managers of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING to invest a percentage of their bonus to acquire shares and share-based instruments. There is a lockup period of from three to five years, counted from the initial investment date, and the shares are thus subject to market price variations. After complying with the preconditions outlined in the program, beneficiaries are entitled to receive shares as consideration, in accordance with the number of shares indicated in the regulations.
The acquisition price of shares and share-based instruments is established every six months as the average of the share price over the last 30 days, which is performed on the seventh business day prior to the remuneration grant date.
The fair value of the consideration in shares is the market price at the grant date, less expected dividends.

Projections of future taxable income include estimates of macroeconomic variables, exchange rates, interest rates, volumes of financial operations and service fees and other factors, which can vary in relation to actual data and amounts.
Net income in the financial statements is not directly related to the taxable income for income tax and social contribution, due to differences between accounting criteria and the tax legislation, in addition to corporate aspects. Accordingly, it is recommended that changes in realization of deferred tax assets presented above are not considered as an indication of future net income.

Note 26 - Post-employment benefits

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING sponsors, in conjunction with its subsidiaries, retirement plans for its employees.

Retirement plans are managed by Closed-end Private Pension Entities (EFPC) and are closed to new applicants. These entities have an independent structure and manage their plans according to the characteristics of their regulations.

There are three types of retirement plan:

    •   Defined Benefit Plans (BD): plans for which scheduled benefits have their value established in advance, based on salaries and/or length of service of employees, and the cost is actuarially determined. The plans classified in this category are: Plano de Aposentadoria Complementar; Plano de Aposentadoria Complementar Móvel Vitalícia; Plano de Benefício Franprev; Plano de Benefício 002; Plano de Benefícios Prebeg; Plano BD UBB PREV; Plano de Benefícios II; Plano Básico Itaulam; Plano BD Itaucard; Plano de Aposentadoria Principal Itaú Unibanco managed by Fundação Itaú Unibanco - Previdência Complementar (FIU); and Plano de Benefícios I, managed by Fundo de Pensão Multipatrocinado (FUNBEP). 

    •   Defined Contribution Plans (CD): plans for which scheduled benefits have their value permanently adjusted to the investments balance, kept in favor of the participant, including in the benefit concession phase, considering net proceedings of its investment, amounts contributed and benefits paid. Defined Contribution plans include pension funds consisting of the portions of sponsor's contributions not included in a participant's account balance due to loss of eligibility for the benefit, and of monies arising from the migration of retirement plans in defined benefit modality. These funds are used for future contributions to individual participant's accounts, according to the respective benefit plan regulations. The plans classified in this category are: Plano Itaubanco CD; Plano de Aposentadoria Itaubank; Plano de Previdência REDECARD managed by FIU.

    •   Variable Contribution Plans (CV): in this type of plan, scheduled benefits present a combination of characteristics of defined contribution and defined benefit modalities, and the benefit is actuarially determined based on the investments balance accumulated by the participant on the retirement date. The plans classified in this category are: Plano de Previdência Unibanco Futuro Inteligente; Plano Suplementar Itaulam; Plano CV Itaucard; Plano de Aposentadoria Suplementar Itaú Unibanco managed by FIU and Plano de Benefícios II managed by FUNBEP.

a) Main actuarial assumptions

Actuarial assumptions of demographic and financial nature should reflect the best estimates about the variables that determine the post-employment benefit obligations.
The most relevant demographic assumption comprise of mortality table and the most relevant financial assumptions include: discount rate and inflation.
  09/30/2023 09/30/2022
Mortality table (1) AT-2000 AT-2000
Discount rate (2) 10.34% p.a. 9.46% p.a.
Inflation (3) 4.00% p.a. 4.00% p.a.
Actuarial method Projected Unit Credit Projected Unit Credit
1) Correspond to those disclosed by SOA (Society of Actuaries), that reflect a 10% increase in the probabilities of survival  regarding the respective basic tables.
2) Determined based on market yield relating to National Treasury Notes (NTN-B) and compatible with the economic scenario observed on the balance sheet closing date, considering the volatility of interest market and models used.
3) Refers to estimated long-term projection.
Retirement plans sponsored by foreign subsidiaries - Banco Itaú (Suisse) S.A., Itaú Colombia S.A. and PROSERV - Promociones y Servicios S.A. de C.V. - are structured as Defined Benefit modality and adopt actuarial assumptions adequate to masses of participants and the economic scenario of each country.

F-72 
 

 

b) Risk management

The EFPCs sponsored by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING are regulated by the National Council for Complementary Pension (CNPC) and PREVIC, and have an Executive Board, Advisory and Tax Councils. 

Benefits offered have long-term characteristics and the main factors involved in the management and measurement of their risks are financial risk, inflation risk and demographic risk.

    •   Financial risk – the actuarial liability is calculated by adopting a discount, which may differ from rates earned in investments. If real income from plan investments is lower than yield expected, this may give rise to a deficit. To mitigate this risk and assure the capacity to pay long-term benefits, the plans have a significant percentage of fixed-income securities pegged to the plan commitments, aiming at minimizing volatility and risk of mismatch between assets and liabilities. Additionally, adherence tests are carried out in financial assumptions to ensure their adequacy to obligations of respective plans.

    •   Inflation risk - a large part of liabilities is pegged to inflation risk, making actuarial liabilities sensitive to increase in rates. To mitigate this risk, the same financial risks mitigation strategies are used.

    •   Demographic risk - plans that have any obligation actuarially assessed are exposed to demographic risk. In the event the mortality tables used are not adherent to the mass of plan participants, a deficit or surplus may arise in actuarial evaluation. To mitigate this risk, adherence tests to demographic assumptions are conducted to ensure their adequacy to liabilities of respective plans. 

For purposes of registering in the balance sheet of the EFPCs that manage them, actuarial liabilities of plans use discount rate adherent to their asset portfolio and income and expense flows, according to a study prepared by an independent actuarial consulting company. The actuarial method used is the aggregate method, through which the plan costing is defined by the difference between its equity coverage and the current value of its future liabilities, observing the methodology established in the respective actuarial technical note. 

When a deficit in the concession period above the legally defined limits is noted, debt agreements are entered into with the sponsor according to costing policies, which affect the future contributions of the plan, and a plan for solving such deficit is established respecting the guarantees set forth by the legislation in force. The plans that are in this situation are resolved through extraordinary contributions that affect the values of the future contribution of the plan.

F-73 
 

 

c) Asset management

The purpose of the management of the funds is the long-term balance between pension assets and liabilities with payment of benefits by exceeding actuarial goals(discount rate plus benefit adjustment index, established in the plan regulations).
Below is a table with the allocation of assets by category, segmented into Quoted in an active market and Not quoted in an active market:
Types Fair value   % Allocation

Loans to participants 77 69   0.3% 0.3%
Total 22,470 21,933   100.0% 100.0%

The defined benefit plan assets include shares of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, its main parent company (ITAÚSA) and of subsidiaries of the latter, with a fair value of R$ 1  (R$ 1 at 12/31/2022), and real estate rented to group companies, with a fair value of R$ 438 (R$ 420 at 12/31/2022).

 

d) Other post-employment benefits

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING and its subsidiaries do not have additional liabilities related to post-employment benefits, except in cases arising from maintenance commitments assumed in acquisition agreements which occurred over the years, as well as those benefits originated from court decision in the terms and conditions established, in which there is total or partial sponsorship of health care plans for a specific group of former employees and their beneficiaries. Its costing is actuarially determined so as to ensure coverage maintenance. These plans are closed to new applicants.

Assumptions for discount rate, inflation, mortality table and actuarial method are the same as those used for retirement plans. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING used the percentage of 4% p.a. for medical inflation, additionally considering, inflation rate of 4% p.a.

Particularly in other post-employment benefits, there is medical inflation risk associated with above expectation increases in medical costs. To mitigate this risk, the same financial risks mitigation strategies are used.

Net interest correspond to the amount calculated on 01/01/2023 based on the initial amount (Net assets, Actuarial liabilities and Restriction of assets), taking into account the estimated amount of payments/receipts of benefits/contributions, multiplied by the discount rate of 10.34% p.a. (On 01/01/2022 the rate used was 9.46% p.a.). 

As of 2023, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING started sponsoring the Plano de Benefícios II. The amount recognized in Liabilities is R$ 65, in Other Comprehensive Income is R$ 7 and in income/(expense) is R$ (5).

h) Sensitivity analysis

To measure the effects of changes in the key assumptions, sensitivity tests are conducted in actuarial liabilities annually. The sensitivity analysis considers a vision of the impacts caused by changes in assumptions, which could affect the income for the period and stockholders’ equity at the balance sheet date. This type of analysis is usually carried out under the ceteris paribus condition, in which the sensitivity of a system is measured when only one variable of interest is changed and all the others remain unchanged. The results obtained are shown in the table below:

Note 27 - Insurance contracts and private pension

Insurance products sold by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING are divided into (i) non-life insurance, which guarantees loss, damage or liability for objects or people; and (ii) life insurance, which includes coverage against the risk of death and personal accidents. Insurance products are substantially offered through the electronic channels and branches of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING reinsures the portion of the underwritten risks that exceed the maximum liability limits it deems to be appropriate for each segment and product. These reinsurance contracts allow the recovery of a portion of the losses with the reinsurer, although they do not release ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING from the main obligation.

F-76 
 

Private pension products are essentially divided into: (i) Free Benefit Generating Plan (PGBL) and Free Benefit Generating Life Plan (VGBL): whose main objective is to accumulate financial resources, the payment of which is made by means of income; and (ii) traditional: pension plan with a minimum guarantee of profitability, which is no longer sold.

Note 28 - Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value is a measurement based on market. In cases where market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions adopted, including the discount rate and estimate of future cash flows. The estimated fair value obtained through these techniques cannot be substantiated by comparison with independent markets and, in many cases, cannot be realized on immediate settlement of the instrument.

To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and the corresponding disclosures, a fair value hierarchy is established that classifies into three levels the information for the valuation techniques used in the fair value measurement.

Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability being measured occur often enough and with sufficient volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Input that is not observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. Level 2 generally includes: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, that is, markets in which there are few transactions for the asset or liability, the prices are not current, or quoted prices vary substantially either over time or among market makers, or in which little information is released publicly; (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, volatilities, etc.); (iv) inputs that are mainly derived from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or by other means.

Level 3: Inputs are not observable for the asset or liability. Unobservable information is used to measure fair value to the extent that observable information is not available, thus allowing for situations in which there is little, or no market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value are defined below:

    •    Central Bank deposits, Securities purchased under agreements to resell and Securities sold under repurchase agreements - The carrying amounts for these instruments are close to their fair values.

    •    Interbank deposits, Deposits, Interbank and Institutional Market Funds - They are calculated by discounting estimated cash flows at market interest rates.

    •    Securities and Derivatives - Under normal conditions, the prices quoted in the market are the best indicators of the fair values of these financial instruments. However, not all instruments have liquidity or quoted market prices and, in such cases, it is necessary to adopt present value estimates and other techniques to establish their fair value. In the absence of prices quoted by the Brazilian Association of Financial and Capital Markets Entities (ANBIMA), the fair values of government securities are calculated by discounting estimated cash flows at market interest rates, as well as corporate securities.

F-79 
 

 

    •    Loans and financial leases - Fair value is estimated for groups of loans with similar financial and risk characteristics, using valuation models. The fair value of fixed-rate loans was determined by discounting estimated cash flows, at interest rates applicable to similar loans. For the majority of loans at floating rates, the carrying amount was considered to be close to their market value. The fair value of loan and lease operations not overdue was calculated by discounting the expected payments of principal and interest to maturity. The fair value of overdue loan and lease transactions was based on the discount of estimated cash flows, using a rate proportional to the risk associated with the estimated cash flows, or on the underlying collateral. The assumptions for cash flows and discount rates rely on information available in the market and knowledge of the individual debtor.

    •    Other financial assets / liabilities - Primarily composed of receivables from credit card issuers, deposits in guarantee for contingent liabilities, provisions and legal obligations and trading and intermediation of securities. The carrying amounts for these assets/liabilities substantially approximate to their fair values, since they principally represent amounts to be received in the short term from credit card holders and to be paid to credit card issuers, deposits in guarantee (indexed to market rates) made by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING to secure lawsuits or very short-term receivables (generally with a maturity of approximately 5 business days). All of these items represent assets / liabilities without significant associated market, credit or liquidity risks. 

Financial instruments not included in the Balance Sheet (Note 32) are represented by Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees provided, which amount to R$ 116,213 (R$ 139,133 at 12/31/2022) with an estimated fair value of R$ 135 (R$ 161 at 12/31/2022).

In all periods, there was no significant transfer between Level 1 and Level 2. Transfers to and from Level 3 are presented in movements of Level 3.

The methods and assumptions used to measurement the fair value are defined below:

Level 1: Securities with liquid prices available in an active market and derivatives traded on stock exchanges. This classification level includes most of the Brazilian government securities, government securities from Latin America, government securities from other countries, shares, debentures with price published by ANBIMA and other securities traded in an active market.

Level 2: Bonds, securities, derivatives and others that do not have price information available and are priced based on conventional or internal models. The inputs used by these models are captured directly or built from observations of active markets. Most derivatives traded over-the-counter, certain Brazilian government bonds, debentures and other corporate securities whose credit component effect is not considered relevant, are at this level.

Level 3: Bonds, securities and derivatives for which pricing inputs are generated by statistical and mathematical models. Debentures and other corporate securities that do not fit into level 2 rule and derivatives with maturities greater than the last observable vertices of the discount curves are at this level.

All the above methods may result in a fair value that is not indicative of the net realizable value or future fair values. However, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING believes that all the methods used are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. Moreover, the adoption of different methods or assumptions to estimate fair value may result in different fair value estimates at the balance sheet date.

Governance of Level 3 recurring fair value measurement

The departments in charge of defining and applying the pricing models are segregated from the business areas. The models are documented, submitted to validation by an independent area and approved by a specific committee. The daily processes of price capture, calculation and disclosure are periodically checked according to formally defined tests and criteria and the information is stored in a single corporate data base.

The most frequent cases of assets classified as Level 3 are justified by the discount factors used and corporate bonds whose credit component is relevant. Factors such as the fixed interest curve in Brazilian Reais and the TR coupon curve – and, as a result, their related factors – have inputs with terms shorter than the maturities of fixed-income assets.

Level 3 recurring fair value changes

The tables below show balance sheet changes for financial instruments classified by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Derivative financial instruments classified in Level 3 correspond to swap and option.

Sensitivity analysis of Level 3 operations
The fair value of financial instruments classified in Level 3 is measured through valuation techniques based on correlations and associated products traded in active markets, internal estimates and internal models.
Significant unobservable inputs used for measurement of the fair value of instruments classified in Level 3 are: interest rates, underlying asset prices and volatility. Significant variations in any of these inputs separately may give rise to substantial changes in the fair value.
The table below shows the sensitivity of these fair values in scenarios of changes of interest rates or, asset prices, or in scenarios with varying shocks to prices and volatilities for nonlinear assets:
Sensitivity – Level 3 Operations   09/30/2023   12/31/2022
Market risk factor groups  Scenarios Impact   Impact
Income Stockholders' equity   Income Stockholders' equity
Interest rates I (1.3) -   (2.2) -
II (32.7) (0.6)   (56.9) -
III (65.4) (1.2)   (113.3) -
Commodities, Indexes and Shares I (6.2) (2.1)   (6.7) -
II (12.5) (4.3)   (13.4) -
Nonlinear I (3.0) -   (24.8) -
II (4.7) -   (37.8) -
The following scenarios are used to measure sensitivity:
Interest rate
Based on reasonably possible changes in assumptions of 1, 25 and 50 basis points (scenarios I, II and III respectively) applied to the interest curves, both up and down, taking the largest losses resulting in each scenario.
Commodities, Index and Shares
Based on reasonably possible changes in assumptions of 5 and 10 percentage points (scenarios I and II respectively) applied to share prices, both up and down, taking the largest losses resulting in each scenario.
Nonlinear
Scenario I: Based on reasonably possible changes in assumptions of 5 percentage points on prices and 25 percentage points on the volatility level, both up and down, taking the largest losses resulting in each scenario.
Scenario II: Based on reasonably possible changes in assumptions of 10 percentage points on prices and 25 percentage points on the volatility level, both up and down, taking the largest losses resulting in each scenario.

Note 29 - Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities

In the ordinary course of its business, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING may be a party to legal proceedings labor, civil and tax nature. The contingencies related to these lawsuits are classified as follows: 

a) Contingent assets

There are no contingent assets recorded.

b) Provisions and contingencies

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s provisions for judicial and administrative challenges are long-term, considering the time required for their questioning, and this prevents the disclosure of a deadline for their conclusion. 

The legal advisors believe that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is not a party to this or any other administrative proceedings or lawsuits, in addition to those highlighted throughout this note, that could significantly affect the results of its operations.

Civil lawsuits

In general, provisions and contingencies arise from claims related to the revision of contracts and compensation for material and moral damages. The lawsuits are classified as follows:

Collective lawsuits: Related to claims of a similar nature and with individual amounts that are not considered significant. Provisions are calculated on a monthly basis and the expected amount of losses is accrued according to statistical references that take into account the nature of the lawsuit and the characteristics of the court (Small Claims Court or Regular Court). Contingencies and provisions are adjusted to reflect the amounts deposited into court as guarantee for their execution when realized.

Individual lawsuits: Related to claims with unusual characteristics or involving significant amounts. The probability of loss is ascertained periodically, based on the amount claimed and the special nature of each case. The probability of loss is estimated according to the peculiarities of the lawsuits.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, despite having complied with the rules in force at the time, is a defendant in lawsuits filed by individuals referring to payment of inflation adjustments to savings accounts resulting from economic plans implemented in the 1980s and the 1990s, as well as in collective lawsuits filed by: (i) consumer protection associations; and (ii) the Public Attorney’s Office, on behalf of the savings accounts holders. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING recognizes provisions upon receipt of summons, and when individuals demand the enforcement of a ruling handed down by the courts, using the same criteria as for provisions for individual lawsuits.

F-84 
 

The Federal Supreme Court (STF) has issued some decisions favorable to savings account holders, but it has not established its understanding with respect to the constitutionality of the economic plans and their applicability to savings accounts. Currently, the appeals involving these matters are suspended, by order of the STF, until it pronounces its final decision.

In December 2017, through mediation of the Federal Attorney’s Office (AGU) and supervision of the BACEN, savers (represented by two civil associations, FEBRAPO and IDEC) and FEBRABAN entered into an instrument of agreement aiming at resolving lawsuits related to the economic plans, and ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has already accepted its terms. Said agreement was approved on March 1, 2018, by the Plenary Session of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) and savers could adhere to its terms for a 24-month period. 

Due to the end of this term, the parties signed an amendment to the instrument of agreement to extend this period in order to contemplate a higher number of holders of savings accounts and, consequently, to extend the end of lawsuits. In May, 2020 the Federal Supreme Court (STF) approved this amendment and granted a 30-month term for new adhesions, and this term may be extended for another 30 months, subject to the reporting of the number of adhesions over the first period.

Labor claims

Provisions and contingencies arise from lawsuits in which labor rights provided for in labor legislation specific to the related profession are discussed, such as: overtime, salary equalization, reinstatement, transfer allowance, and pension plan supplement, among others. These lawsuits are classified as follows:

Collective lawsuits: related to claims considered similar and with individual amounts that are not considered significant. The expected amount of loss is determined and accrued on a monthly basis in accordance with a statistical model which calculates the amount of the claims and it is reassessed taking into account court rulings. Provisions for contingencies are adjusted to reflect the amounts deposited into court as security for execution.

Individual lawsuits: related to claims with unusual characteristics or involving significant amounts. These are periodically calculated based on the amounts claimed. The probability of loss is estimated in accordance with the actual and legal characteristics of each lawsuit.

Other risks

These are quantified and accrued on the basis of the amount of rural credit transactions with joint liability and FCVS (salary variations compensation fund) credits assigned to Banco Nacional.

F-88 
 

 

a) Basis of Presentation

Segment information is based on the reports used by senior management of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING to assess performance and to make decisions about allocation of funds for investment and other purposes. 

These reports use a variety of information for management purposes, including financial and non-financial information supported by bases different from information prepared according to accounting practices adopted in Brazil. The main indicators used for monitoring business performance are Recurring Income, and Return on Economic Capital allocated to each business segment.

Information by segment has been prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and is adjusted by the items below:

Allocated capital: The statements for each segment consider capital allocation based on a proprietary model and consequent impacts on results arising from this allocation. This model includes the following components: Credit risk, operating risk, market risk and insurance underwriting risk.

Income tax rate: We take the total income tax rate, net of the tax effect from the payment of interest on capital, for the Retail Business, Wholesale Business and Activities with the Market + Corporation. The difference between the income tax amount calculated by segment and the effective income tax amount, as stated in the consolidated financial statements, is allocated to the Trading + Institutional column.

    •   Reclassification and application of managerial criteria

The managerial statement of income was used to prepare information per segment. These statements were obtained based on the statement of income adjusted by the impact of non-recurring events and the managerial reclassifications in income.

The main reclassifications between the accounting and managerial results are:

Operating revenues: Considers the opportunity cost for each operation. The financial statements were adjusted so that the stockholders' equity was replaced by funding at market price. Subsequently, the financial statements were adjusted to include revenues related to capital allocated to each segment. The cost of subordinated debt and the respective remuneration at market price were proportionally allocated to the segments, based on the economic capital allocated.

Tax effects of hedging: The tax effects of hedging of investments abroad were adjusted – they were originally recorded as tax expenses (PIS and COFINS) and Income Tax and Social Contribution on Net Income – and are now reclassified to financial margin.

Insurance: The main reclassifications of revenues refer to the financial margins obtained from technical provisions for insurance, pension plans and premium bonds, in addition to revenue from management of pension plan funds.

Other reclassifications: Other Income, Share of profit or (loss) in Associates and joint ventures, Non-Operating Income, Profit Sharing of Management Members and Expenses for Credit Card Reward Program were reclassified to those lines representing the way the ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING manages its business, to provide a clearer understanding of our performance. 

The adjustments and reclassifications column shows the effects of the differences between the accounting principles followed for the presentation of segment information, which are substantially in line with the accounting practices adopted for financial institutions in Brazil, except as described above, and the policies used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements according to IFRS. Significant adjustments are as follows:

F-89 
 

 

    •   Requirements for impairment testing of financial assets are based on the expected loan losses model.

    •   Adjustment to fair value due to reclassifications of financial assets to categories of measurement at amortized cost, at fair value through profit and loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income, as a result of the concept of business models of IFRS 9.

    •   Financial assets modified and not written-off, with their balances recalculated in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 9.

    •   Effective interest rate of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost, appropriating revenues and costs directly attributable to their acquisition, issue or disposal over the transaction term, whereas in the standards adopted in Brazil, recognition of expenses and revenues from fees occurs at the time these transactions are contracted.

    •   Goodwill generated in a business combination is not amortized, whereas in the standards adopted in Brazil, it is amortized.

Note 32 - Risk and Capital Management

a) Corporate Governance

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING invests in robust risk management processes and capital management that are the basis for its strategic decisions to ensure business sustainability and maximize shareholder value creation.

These processes are aligned with the guidelines of the Board of Directors and Executive which, through collegiate bodies, define the global objectives expressed as targets and limits for the business units that manage risk. Control and capital management units, in turn, support ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s management by monitoring and analyzing risk and capital. 

The Board of Directors is the main body responsible for establishing guidelines, policies and approval levels for risk and capital management. The Capital and Risk Management Committee (CGRC), in turn, is responsible for supporting the Board of Directors in managing capital and risk. At the executive level, collegiate bodies, presided over by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, are responsible for capital and risk management, and their decisions are monitored by the CGRC. 

Additionally, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has collegiate bodies with capital and risk management responsibilities delegated to them, under the responsibility of the CRO (Chief Risk Officer). To support this structure, the Risk Department has departments to ensure, on an independent and centralized basis, that the institution’s risks and capital are managed in compliance with the defined policies and procedures.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING's management model is made up of:

    •    1st line of defense: business areas, which have primary responsibility for managing the risk they originate.

    •    2nd line of defense: risk area, which ensures that risks are managed and are supported by risk management principles (risk appetite, policies, procedures and dissemination of the risk culture in the business).

    •   3rd line of defense: internal audit, which is linked to the Board of Directors and makes an independent assessment of the activities developed by the other areas.

F-97 
 

 

b) Risk Management

Risk Appetite

The risk appetite of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is based on the Board of Director’s statement: 

“We are a universal bank, operating predominantly in Latin America. Supported by our risk culture, we operate based on rigorous ethical and regulatory compliance standards, seeking high and growing results, with low volatility, by means of the long-lasting relationship with clients, correctly pricing risks, well-distributed fund-raising and proper use of capital.”

Based on this statement, six dimensions have been defined, each dimension consists of a set of metrics associated with the main risks involved, combining supplementary measurement methods, to give a comprehensive vision of our exposure.

The Board of Directors is responsible for approving guidelines and limits for risk appetite, with the support of CGRC and the CRO.

The limits for risk appetite are monitored regularly and reported to risk committees and to the Board of Directors, which will oversee the preventive measures to be taken to ensure that exposure is aligned with the strategies of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. 

Foremost among processes for proper risk and capital management are the Risk Appetite Statement (RAS) and the implementation of a continuous, integrated risk management structure, the stress test program, the establishment of a Risk Committee, and the nomination at BACEN of a Chief Risk Officer (CRO), with roles and responsibilities assigned, and requirements for independence.

The six dimensions of risk appetite are:

    •   Capitalization: establishes that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING must have capital sufficient to face any serious recession period or a stress event without the need to adjust its capital structure under unfavorable circumstances. It is monitored by tracking ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s capital ratios, both in normal and stress scenarios, and of the ratings of the institution's debt issues. 

    •   Liquidity: establishes that the liquidity of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING must withstand long periods of stress. It is monitored by tracking liquidity indicators. 

    •   Composition of results: establishes that business will mainly focus on Latin America, where Itaú Unibanco will have a diversified range of customers and products, with low appetite for results volatility and high risk. This dimension includes business and profitability, as well as market risk and IRRBB, underwriting and credit risk, including social, environmental and climate dimensions. The metrics monitored by the bank seek to ensure, by means of exposure concentration limits such as, for example, industry sectors, quality of counterparties, countries and geographic regions and risk factors, a suitable composition of the bank’s portfolios, aiming at low volatility of results and business sustainability. 

    •   Operational risk: focuses on the control of operating risk events that may adversely impact business and operating strategy, and involves monitoring the main operational risk events and losses incurred.

    •   Reputation: addresses risks that may impact the institution’s brand value and reputation with customers, employees, regulatory bodies, investors and the general public. The risk monitoring in this dimension is carried in addition to monitoring the institution’s conduct.

    •   Customer: addresses risks that may compromise customer satisfaction and experience, and is monitored by tracking customer satisfaction, direct impacts on customers and suitability indicators.

Risk appetite, risk management and guidelines for employees of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING for routine decision-making purposes are based on: 

F-98 
 

 

    •   Sustainability and customer satisfaction: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING's vision is to be the leading bank in sustainable performance and customer satisfaction and, accordingly, it is committed to creating shared value for staff, customers, stockholders and society, ensuring the continuity of the business. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is committed to doing business that is good both for the customer and the institution itself.

    •   Risk culture: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s risk culture goes beyond policies, procedures or processes, reinforcing the individual and collective responsibility of all employees so that they will do the right thing at the right time and in the proper manner, respecting the ethical way of doing business.

    •   Risk pricing: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING ’s operates and assumes risks in businesses that it knows and understands, avoids the ones that are unknown or that do not provide competitive advantages, and carefully assesses risk-return ratios.

    •   Diversification: ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has little appetite for volatility in earnings, and it therefore operates with a diverse base of customers, products and business, seeking to diversify risks and giving priority to lower risk business.

    •   Operational excellence: It is the wish of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING to be an agile bank, with a robust and stable infrastructure enabling us to offer top quality services.

    •   Ethics and respect for regulations: for ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, ethics is non-negotiable, and it therefore promotes an institutional environment of integrity, encouraging staff to cultivate ethics in relationships and business and to respect the rules, thus caring for the institution’s reputation. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has various ways of disseminating risk culture, based on four principles: conscious risk-taking, discussion of the risks the institution faces, the corresponding action taken, and the responsibility of everyone for managing risk. 

These principles serve as a basis for ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING guidelines, helping employees to conscientiously understand, identify, measure, manage and mitigate risks. 

I - Credit risk

The possibility of losses arising from failure by a borrower, issuer or counterparty to meet their financial obligations, the impairment of a loan due to downgrading of the risk rating of the borrower, the issuer or the counterparty, a decrease in earnings or remuneration, advantages conceded on renegotiation or the costs of recovery.

There is a credit risk control and management structure, centralized and independent from the business units, that provides for operating limits and risk mitigation mechanisms, and also establishes processes and tools to measure, monitor and control the credit risk inherent in all products, portfolio concentrations and impacts of potential changes in the economic environment.

The credit policy of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is based on internal criteria such as: classification of customers, portfolio performance and changes, default levels, rate of return and economic capital allocated, among others, and also take into account external factors such as interest rates, market default indicators, inflation, changes in consumption, and so on. 

For personal customers and small and middle-market companies, credit rating is based on statistical application models (at the early stages of the relationship with a customer) and behavior score (used for customers with which ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING already has a relationship). 

For large companies, the rating is based on information such as economic and financial condition of the counterparty, their cash-generating capability, the economic group to which they belong, and the current and prospective situation of the economic sector in which they operate, in accordance with the guidelines of the Sustainability and Social and Environmental Responsibility Policy (PRSA) and specific manuals and procedures of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. Credit proposals are analyzed on a case by case basis, through an approval-level mechanism. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING strictly controls the credit exposure of customers and counterparties, taking action to address situations in which the current exposure exceeds what is desirable. For this purpose, measures provided for in loan agreements are available, such as accelerated maturity or a requirement for additional collateral. 

F-99 
 

I.I - Collateral and policies for mitigating credit risk

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses guarantees to increase its capacity for recovery in operations exposed to credit risk. The guarantees may be personal, secured, legal structures with mitigating power and offset agreements. 

For collateral to be considered instruments that mitigate credit risk, it must comply with the requirements and standards that regulate such instruments, both internal and external ones, and they must be legally valid (effective), enforceable, and assessed on a regular basis.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING also uses credit derivatives, to mitigate credit risk of its portfolios of loans and securities. These instruments are priced based on models that use the fair value of market inputs, such as credit spreads, recovery rates, correlations and interest rates.

I.II - Policy for Provisioning and Economic Scenarios

Both the credit risk and the finance areas are responsible for defining the methods used to measure expected loan losses and for periodically assessing changes in the provision amounts.

These areas monitor the trends observed in provisions for expected credit losses by segment, in addition to establishing an initial understanding of the variables that may trigger changes in the allowance for loan losses, the probability of default (PD) or the loss given default (LGD).

Once the trends have been identified and an initial assessment of the variables has been made at the corporate level, the business areas are responsible for further analyzing these trends in more detail and for each segment, in order to understand the underlying reasons for the trends and to decide whether changes are required in credit policies.

Provisions for expected losses take into account the expected risk linked to contracts with similar characteristics and in anticipation of signs of deterioration, over a loss horizon suitable for the remaining period of the contract to maturity. For contracts of products with no determined termination date, average results of deterioration and default are used to determine the loss horizon.

Additionally, information on economic scenarios and public data with internal projections are used to determine and adjust the expected credit loss in line with expected macroeconomic realities.

Sensitivity analysis                  
ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING prepares studies on the impact of estimates in the calculation of expected credit loss. The expected loss models use three different scenarios: Optimistic, Base and Pessimistic. In Brazil, where operations are substantially carried out, these scenarios are combined by weighting their probabilities: 10%, 50% and 40%, respectively, which are updated so as to reflect the new economic conditions. For loan portfolios originated in other countries, the scenarios are weighted by different probabilities, considering regional economic aspects and conditions.
The table below shows the amount of financial assets at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income, expected loss and the impacts on the calculation of expected credit loss in the adoption of 100% of each scenario:
09/30/2023   12/31/2022
Financial    Assets (1) Expected    Loss Reduction/(Increase) of Expected Loss   Financial    Assets (1) Expected    Loss Reduction/(Increase) of Expected Loss

1) Composed of Loan operations, lease operations and securities.

Expected loss comprises Expected credit loss for Financial guarantees R$ (745) (R$ (810) at 12/31/2022) and Loan commitments R$ (3,190) (R$ (2,874) at 12/31/2022). 

I.III - Classification of Stages of Credit Impairment

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses customers’ internal information, statistic models, days of default and quantitative analysis in order to determine the credit status of portfolio agreements.

F-100 
 

 

Rules for changing stages take into account:

    •   Stage 1 to stage 2: delay or evaluation of probability of default (PD) triggers.

For Retail market portfolios, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING classifies loan agreements which are over 30 days overdue in stage 2, except payroll loans for government agency, for which the figure is 45 days, due to the dynamics of payment for transfer of the product. For agreements with delay less than 30 days, the migration to stage 2 occurs if the financial asset exceeds the allowance for loan losses established by the risk appetite approved by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s Management for each portfolio, whereas the others remain in stage 1.

For the Wholesale business portfolio, information on arrears is taken into account when assessing the counterparty rating.

    •   Stage 3: default parameters are used to identify stage 3: 90 days without payment noted, except for the mortgage loan portfolio, which are considered 180 days; debt restructuring; filing for bankruptcy; loss; and court-supervised recovery. The financial asset, at any stage, can migrate to stage 3 when showing default parameters.

Information on days of delay, used on an absolute basis, is one important factor for the classification of stages, and after a certain credit status has been defined for an agreement, it is classified in one of the three stages of credit deterioration. Based on this classification, rules for measuring expected credit loss in each stage are used, as described in Note 2d IV.

Amounts shown for credit risk exposure are based on gross book value and do not take into account any collateral received or other added credit improvements.
The contractual amounts of financial guarantees and letters of credit cards represent the maximum potential of credit risk in the event that a counterparty does not meet the terms of the agreement. The vast majority of loan commitments (mortgage loans, overdraft accounts and other pre-approved limits) mature without being drawn, since they are renewed monthly and can be cancelled unilaterally.
As a result, the total contractual amount does not represent our real future exposure to credit risk or the liquidity needs arising from such commitments.

I.IV.IV - Repossessed assets

Assets received from the foreclosure of loans, including real estate, are initially recorded at the lower of: (i) the fair value of the asset less the estimated selling expenses, or (ii) the carrying amount of the loan.

Further impairment of assets is recorded as a provision, with a corresponding charge to income. The maintenance costs of these assets are expensed as incurred.

The policy for sales of these assets includes periodic auctions that are announced to the market in advance, and provides that the assets cannot be held for more than one year, as stipulated by BACEN.

Total assets repossessed in the period were R$ 746 (R$ 197 from 01/01 to 09/30/2022), mainly composed of real estate. 

II - Market risk

Defined as the possibility of incurring financial losses from changes in the market value of positions held by a financial institution, including the risks of transactions subject to fluctuations in currency rates, interest rates, share prices, price indexes and commodity prices, as set forth by CMN. Price Indexes are also treated as a risk factor group.

Market risk is controlled by an area independent from the business areas, which is responsible for the daily activities of (i) risk measurement and assessment, (ii) monitoring of stress scenarios, limits and alerts, (iii) application, analysis and testing of stress scenarios, (iv) risk reporting to those responsible within the business areas, in compliance with the governance of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, (v) monitoring of actions required to adjust positions and risk levels to make them realistic, and (vi) providing support for the safe launch of new financial products. 

The market risk structure categorizes transactions as part of either the banking portfolio or the trading portfolio, in accordance with general criteria established by CMN Resolution 4,557, of February 23, 2017, and BCB Resolution No. 111, of July 6, 2021 and later changes. The trading portfolio consists of all transactions involving financial instruments and commodities, including derivatives, which are held for trading. The banking portfolio is basically characterized by transactions for the banking business, and transactions related to the management of the balance sheet of the institution, where there is no intention of sale and time horizons are medium and long term.

Market risk management is based on the following metrics:

    •   Value at risk (VaR): a statistical measure that estimates the expected maximum potential economic loss under normal market conditions, considering a certain time horizon and confidence level.

    •   Losses in stress scenarios (Stress Test): simulation technique to assess the behavior of assets, liabilities and derivatives of a portfolio when several risk factors are taken to extreme market situations (based on prospective and historical scenarios).

    •   Stop loss: metrics used to revise positions, should losses accumulated in a fixed period reach a certain level.

    •   Concentration: cumulative exposure of a certain financial instrument or risk factor, calculated at market value (MtM – Mark to Market).

    •   Stressed VaR: statistical metric derived from the VaR calculation, with the purpose of simulating higher risk in the trading portfolio, taking returns that can be seen in past scenarios of extreme volatility.

Management of interest rate risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) is based on the following metrics:

F-108 
 

 

    •   ΔEVE (Delta Economic Value of Equity): difference between the present value of the sum of repricing flows of instruments subject to IRRBB in a base scenario and the present value of the sum of repricing flows of these instruments in a scenario of shock in interest rates.

    •   ΔNII (Delta Net Interest Income): difference between the result of financial intermediation of instruments subject to IRRBB in a base scenario and the result of financial intermediation of these instruments in a scenario of shock in interest rates.

In addition, sensitivity and loss control measures are also analyzed. They include:

    •   Mismatching analysis (GAPS): accumulated exposure by risk factor of cash flows expressed at market value, allocated at the maturity dates.

    •   Sensitivity (DV01- Delta Variation): impact on the fair value of cash flows when a 1 basis point change is applied to current interest rates or on the index rates.

    •   Sensitivity to Sundry Risk Factors (Greeks): partial derivatives of an option portfolio in relation to the prices of underlying assets, implied volatilities, interest rates and time.

In order to operate within the defined limits, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING hedges transactions with customers and proprietary positions, including its foreign investments. Derivatives are commonly used for these hedging activities, which can be either accounting or economic hedges, both governed by the institutional polices of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

The structure of limits and alerts obeys the Board of Directors’ guidelines, and it is reviewed and approved on an annual basis. This structure has specific limits aimed at improving the process of monitoring and understanding risk, and at avoiding concentration. These limits are quantified by assessing the forecast balance sheet results, the size of stockholders’ equity, market liquidity, complexity and volatility, and ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s appetite for risk. 

The consumption of market risk limits is monitored and disclosed daily through exposure and sensitivity maps. The market risk area analyzes and controls the adherence of these exposures to limits and alerts and reports them in a timely manner to the Treasury desks and other structures foreseen in the governance.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses proprietary systems to measure the consolidated market risk. The processing of these systems occurs in a high-availability access-controlled environment, which has data storage and recovery processes and an infrastructure that ensures business continuity in contingency (disaster recovery) situations.

II.I - VaR - Consolidated ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING

VaR is calculated by Historical Simulation, i.e. the expected distribution for profits and losses (P&L) of a portfolio over time, which can be estimated from past behavior of returns of market risk factors for this portfolio. VaR is calculated at a confidence level of 99%, historical period of 4 years (1000 business days) and a holding period of one day. In addition, in a conservative approach, VaR is calculated daily, with and without volatility weighting, and the final VaR is the more restrictive of the values given by the two methods.

From 01/01 to 09/30/2023, the average total VaR in Historical Simulation was R$ 878 or 0.5% of total stockholders’ equity (R$ 678 or 0.4% of total stockholders’ equity from 01/01 to 12/31/2022).

II.I.II - Currency risk

The purpose of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING's management of foreign exchange exposure is to mitigate the effects arising from variation in foreign exchange rates, which may present high-volatility periods.

The currency (or foreign exchange) risk arises from positions that are sensitive to oscillations in foreign exchange rates. These positions may be originated by financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which the balance sheet is measured or through positions in derivative instruments (for negotiation or hedge). Sensitivity to currency risk is disclosed in the table VaR Total (Historical Simulation) described in item II.I – VaR Consolidated – ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

II.I.III - Share Price Risk

The exposure to share price risk is disclosed in Note 5, related to Financial Assets Through Profit or Loss - Securities, and Note 8, related to Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income - Securities. 

III - Liquidity risk

Defined as the possibility that the institution may be unable to efficiently meet its expected and unexpected obligations, both current and future, including those arising from guarantees issued, without affecting its daily operations and without incurring significant losses.

Liquidity risk is controlled by an area independent from the business area and responsible for establishing the reserve composition, estimating the cash flow and exposure to liquidity risk in different time horizons, and for monitoring the minimum limits to absorb losses in stress scenarios for each country where ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING operates. All activities are subject to verification by independent validation, internal control and audit areas. 

Liquidity management policies and limits are based on prospective scenarios and senior management’s guidelines. These scenarios are reviewed on a periodic basis, by analyzing the need for cash due to atypical market conditions or strategic decisions by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. 

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING manages and controls liquidity risk on a daily basis, using procedures approved in superior committees, including the adoption of liquidity minimum limits, sufficient to absorb possible cash losses in stress scenarios, measured with the use of internal and regulatory methods. 

Among the main regulatory liquidity indicators, the following indicators stand out:

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR): can be defined as a sufficiency index over a 30-day horizon, measuring the available amount of assets available to honor potential liquid outflows in a stress scenario.

Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR): can be defined as an analysis of funding available for the financing of long-term assets.

Both metrics are managed by the liquidity risk area and they have limits approved by superior committees, as well as governance of action plans in possible liquidity stress scenarios.

Additionally, the following items for monitoring and supporting decisions are periodically prepared and submitted to senior management:

    •   Different scenarios projected for changes in liquidity.

    •   Contingency plans for crisis situations.

    •   Reports and charts that describe the risk positions.

    •   Assessment of funding costs and alternative sources of funding.

F-111 
 

 

    •   Monitoring of changes in funding through a constant control of sources of funding, considering the type of investor, maturities and other factors.

III.I - Primary sources of funding

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has different sources of funding, of which a significant portion is from the retail segment. Of total customers’ funds, 67.7% or R$ 934,626, is immediately available to customers. However, the historical behavior of the accumulated balance of the two largest items in this group – demand and savings deposits - is relatively consistent with the balances increasing over time and inflows exceeding outflows for monthly average amounts.

1) The settlement date is considered as the closest period in which the client has the possibility of withdrawing funds.
2) Refers to Deposits received under securities repurchase agreements with securities from own issue.

III.II - Control over liquidity

Under the LCR metric, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has High-quality Liquid Assets (HQLA) which totaled an average of R$ 368,698 in the period, mainly made up of sovereign securities, reserves in central banks and cash. Net cash outflows totaled an average of R$ 196,347 in the period, mainly made up of retail, wholesale funds, additional requirements, contractual and contingent obligations, offset by cash inflows from loans and other expected cash inflows. 

The average LCR in the period is 187.8% (164.4% at 12/31/2022) above the 100% threshold, and therefore the entity comfortably has sufficient stable funds available to support losses under the standardized stress scenario for LCR. 

From the NSFR perspective, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has Available Stable Funding (ASF) that totaled R$ 1,223,998 in the period, mainly made up of capital, retail and wholesale funds. The required stable funding (RSF) totaled R$ 961,883 in the period, mainly made up of loans and financing granted to wholesale and retail clients, central governments, and operations with central banks.  

The NSFR at the period closing is 127.3% (124.9% at 12/31/2022), above the 100% threshold, and therefore the entity comfortably has sufficient stable funds available to support the stable funds required in the long term, in accordance with the metric.

IV - Emerging Risks

Defined as those with a potentially material impact on the business in the medium and long term, but for which there are not enough elements yet for their complete assessment and mitigation due to the number of factors and impacts not yet totally known, such as geopolitical and macroeconomic risk and climate change. Their causes can be originated by external events and result in the emergence of new risks or in the intensification of risks already monitored by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

The identification and monitoring of Emerging Risks are ensured by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s governance, allowing these risks to be incorporated into risk management processes too. 

V - Social, Environmental and Climate Risks

Social, environmental and climate risks are the possibility of losses due to exposure to social, environmental and/or climatic events related to the activities developed by ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

Social, environmental and climatic factors are considered relevant to the business of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, since they may affect the creation of shared value in the short, medium and long term.

The Policy of Social, Environmental and Climatic Risks (Risks SAC Policy) establishes the guidelines and underlying principles for social, environmental and climatic risk management, addressing the most significant risks for the institution’s operation through specific procedures.

Actions to mitigate the Social, Environmental and Climatic Risks are taken based on the mapping of processes, risks and controls, monitoring of new standards related to the theme and recording of occurrence in internal systems. In addition to the identification, the phases of prioritization, response to risk, mitigation, monitoring and reporting of assessed risks supplement the management of these risks at ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING.

In the management of Social, Environmental and Climatic Risks, business areas manage the risk in its daily activities, following the Risks SAC Policy guidelines and specific processes, with the support of specialized assessment from dedicated technical teams located in Credit, which serves the Wholesale segment, Credit Risk and Modeling, and Institutional Legal teams, that act on an integrated way in the management of all dimensions of the Social, Environmental and Climatic Risks related to the conglomerate’s activities. As an example of specific guidelines for the management of these risks, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has specific governance for granting and renewing credit in senior approval levels for clients in certain economic sectors, classified as Sensitive Sectors (Mining, Steel & Metallurgy, Oil & Gas, Textiles Industry and Retail Clothing, Paper & Pulp, Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Agri - Meatpacking, Agri - Crop Protection and Fertilizers, Wood, Energy, Rural Producers and Real Estate), for which there is an individualized analysis of Social, Environmental and Climate Risks. The institution also counts with specific procedures for the Institution’s operation (stockholders’ equity, branch infrastructure, technology and suppliers), credit, investments and key controls. SAC Risks area, Internal Controls and Compliance areas, in turn, support and ensure the governance of the activities of the business and credit areas that serves the business. The Internal Audit acts on an independent manner, assessing risk management, controls and governance.

Governance also counts on the Social, Environmental and Climatic Risks Committee, whose main responsibility is to assess and deliberate about institutional and strategic matters, as well as to resolve on products, operations, and services, among others involving the Social, Environmental and Climatic Risks.

Climate Risk includes: (i) physical risks, arising from changes in weather patterns, such as increased rainfall, and temperature and extreme weather events, and (ii) transition risks, resulting from changes in the economy, as a result of climate actions, such as carbon pricing, climate regulation, market risks and reputational risks.

Considering its relevance, climate risk has become one of the main priorities for ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, which supports the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and it is committed to maintaining a process of evolution and continuous improvement within the pillars recommended by the TCFD. With this purpose, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is strengthening the governance and strategy related to Climate Risk and developing tools and methodologies to assess and manage these risks.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING measures the sensitivity of the credit portfolio to climate risks by applying the Climate Risk Sensitivity Assessment Tool, developed by Febraban. The tool combines relevance and proportionality criteria to identify the sectors and clients within the portfolio that are more sensitive to climate risks, considering physical and transition risks. The sectors with the highest probability of suffering financial impacts from climate change, following the TCFD guidelines, are: energy, transport, materials and construction, agriculture, food and forestry products.

F-114 
 

c) Capital Management Governance

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is subject to the regulations of BACEN, which determines minimum capital requirements, procedures to obtain information to assess the global systemic importance of banks, fixed asset limits, loan limits and accounting practices, and requires banks to conform to the regulations based on the Basel Accord for capital adequacy. Additionally, CNSP and SUSEP issue regulations on capital requirements that affect our insurance operations and private pension and premium bonds plans.

The capital statements were prepared in accordance with BACEN’s regulatory requirements and with internationally accepted minimum requirements according to the Bank for International Settlements (BIS).

I - Composition and Capital Adequacy

The Board of Directors is the body responsible for approving the institutional capital management policy and guidelines for the capitalization level of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. The Board is also responsible for the full approval of the ICAAP (Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process) report, the purpose of which is to assess the capital adequacy of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING. 

The result of the last ICAAP, which comprises stress tests – which was dated December 2022 – indicated that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has, in addition to capital to cover all material risks, a significant capital surplus, thus assuring the solidity of the institution’s equity position. 

In order to ensure that ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING is sound and has the capital needed to support business growth, the institution maintains PR levels above the minimum level required to face risks, as demonstrated by the Common Equity Tier I, Tier I Capital and Total Capital ratios.

  09/30/2023 12/31/2022
Available capital (amounts)    
Common Equity Tier 1 (CET 1) 159,227 147,781
Tier 1 177,795 166,868
Total capital (PR) 197,653 185,415
Risk-weighted assets (amounts)    
Total risk-weighted assets (RWA) 1,214,849 1,238,582
Risk-based capital ratios as a percentage of RWA    
Common Equity Tier 1 ratio (%) 13.1% 11.9%
Tier 1 ratio (%) 14.6% 13.5%
Total capital ratio (%) 16.3% 15.0%
Additional CET1 buffer requirements as a percentage of RWA    
Capital conservation buffer requirement (%) 2.50% 2.50%
Countercyclical buffer requirement (%) - -
Bank G-SIB and/or D-SIB additional requirements (%) 1.0% 1.0%
Total of bank CET1 specific buffer requirements (%) 3.50% 3.50%

At 09/30/2023, the amount of perpetual subordinated debt that makes up Tier I capital is R$ 17,809 (R$ 18,336 at 12/31/2022) and the amount of perpetual subordinated debt that makes up Tier capital II is R$ 19,585 (R$ 18,431 at 12/31/2022).

The Basel Ratio reached 16.3% at 09/30/2023, an increase of 1.3 p.p. compared to 12/31/2022, due to the result for the period and reduction of Risk-Weighted Assets. In Risk-Weighted Assets, noteworthy is the reduction in the credit component due to the enactment of BACEN Resolution Nº 229 and evolution of internal models.

Additionally, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has a surplus over the required minimum Total capital of R$ 100,465 (R$ 86,328 at 12/31/2022), well above the Capital buffer requirement of R$ 42,520 (R$ 43,350 at 12/31/2022), widely covered by available capital.

F-115 
 

 

The fixed assets ratio indicates the commitment percentage of adjusted Total capital  with adjusted permanent assets. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING falls within the maximum limit of 50% of adjusted Total capital, established by BACEN. At 09/30/2023, fixed assets ratio reached 20.3% (19.9% at 12/31/2022), showing a surplus of R$ 58,676 (R$ 55,748 at 12/31/2022).

II - Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA)

For calculating minimum capital requirements, RWA must be obtained by taking the sum of the following risk exposures:

    •   RWACPAD = portion related to exposures to credit risk, calculated using standardized approach.

    •   RWACIRB = portion related to exposures to credit risk, calculated according to internal credit risk rating systems (IRB - Internal Ratings-Based approaches), authorized by the Central Bank of Brazil.

    •   RWAMPAD = portion related to the market risk capital requirement, calculated using standardized approach.

    •   RWAMINT = portion related to the market risk capital requirement, calculated according to internal model approaches, authorized by the Central Bank of Brazil.

    •   RWAOPAD = portion related to the operational risk capital requirement, calculated using standardized approach.

1) For comparative purposes, the allocation of the value of the historical RWAcva portion was adapted according to BACEN Regulatory Instruction No. 385/23.

III - Recovery Plan

In response to the latest international crises, the Central Bank published Resolution No. 4,502, which requires the development of a Recovery Plan by financial institutions within Segment 1, with total exposure to GDP of more than 10%. This plan aims to reestablish adequate levels of capital and liquidity above regulatory operating limits in the face of severe systemic or idiosyncratic stress shocks. In this way, each institution could preserve its financial viability while also minimizing the impact on the National Financial System.

IV - Stress testing

The stress test is a process of simulating extreme economic and market conditions on ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING’s results, liquidity and capital. The institution has been carrying out this test in order to assess its solvency in plausible scenarios of crisis, as well as to identify areas that are more susceptible to the impact of stress that may be the subject of risk mitigation. 

F-116 
 

 

For the purposes of the test, the economic research area estimates macroeconomic variables for each stress scenario. The elaboration of stress scenarios considers the qualitative analysis of the Brazilian and the global conjuncture, historical and hypothetical elements, short and long term risks, among other aspects, as defined in CMN Resolution 4,557.

In this process, the main potential risks to the economy are assessed based on the judgment of the bank's team of economists, endorsed by the Chief Economist of ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING and approved by the Board of Directors. Projections for the macroeconomic variables (such as GDP, basic interest rate, exchange rates and inflation) and for variables in the credit market (such as raisings, lending, rates of default, margins and charges) used are based on exogenous shocks or through use of models validated by an independent area. 

Then, the stress scenarios adopted are used to influence the budgeted result and balance sheet. In addition to the scenario analysis methodology, sensitivity analysis and the Reverse Stress Test are also used.

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING uses the simulations to manage its portfolio risks, considering Brazil (segregated into wholesale and retail) and External Units, from which the risk-weighted assets and the capital and liquidity ratios are derived.

The stress test is also an integral part of the ICAAP, the main purpose of which is to assess whether, even in severely adverse situations, the institution would have adequate levels of capital and liquidity, without any impact on the development of its activities.

This information enables potential offenders to the business to be identified and provides support for the strategic decisions of the Board of Directors, the budgeting and risk management process, as well as serving as an input for the institution’s risk appetite metrics.

V - Leverage Ratio

The Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio between Tier I Capital and Total Exposure, calculated according to BACEN Circular 3,748, which minimum requirement is of 3%. The ratio is intended to be a simple measure of non-risk-sensitive leverage, and so it does not take into account risk weights or risk mitigation.

d) Management risks of insurance contracts and private pension

I - Management structure, roles and responsibilities

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has specific committees, whose assignment is to define and establish guidelines for the management of funds from insurance contracts and private pension, with the objective of long-term profitability, and to establish assessment models, risk limits and resource allocation strategies in defined financial assets.

II - Underwriting risk

In addition to the risks inherent in financial instruments related to insurance contracts and private pension, operations carried out at ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING cause exposure to underwriting risk. 

Underwriting risk is the risk of significant deviations in the methodologies and/or assumptions used for pricing products that may adversely affect ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING, which may be consummated in different ways, depending on the product offered: 

(i) Insurance: results from the change in risk behavior in relation to the increase in the frequency and/or severity of claims incurred, contrary to pricing estimates.

(ii) Private Pension: is observed in the increase in life expectancy or deviation from the assumptions adopted in the estimates of future cash flows.

The measurement of exposure to underwriting risk is based on the analysis of the actuarial assumptions adopted in the recognition of liabilities and pricing of products through i) monitoring the evolution of equity required to mitigate the risk of insolvency or liquidity; ii) follow-up of portfolios, products, and coverage, from the perspective of results, adherence to expected rates and expected behavior of loss ratio.

F-117 
 

 

Exposure to underwriting risk is managed and monitored in accordance with risk appetite levels approved by Management and is controlled using indicators that allow the creation of stress scenarios and simulations of the portfolio.

II.I Risk Concentrations

For ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING there is no concentration of products in relation to insurance premiums, thus reducing the risk of concentration in products and distribution channels. ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING's insurance and private pension operations are mainly related to death and survivorship coverage.

II.II - Sensitivity analysis          
The sensitivity analysis considers a vision impacts caused by changes in assumptions, which could affect the income and stockholders’ equity at the report date. This type of analysis is usually conducted under the ceteris paribus condition, in which the sensitivity of a system is measured when one variable of interest is changed and all the others remain unchanged. The results obtained are shown in the table below:
Assumptions   09/30/2023
  Impact in Income Impact in Stockholders’ Equity

III - Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk management for insurance and private pension operations is performed on an ongoing basis, based on monitoring the flow of payments related to its liabilities, the flow of receipts generated by operations and the portfolio of financial assets.

Financial assets are managed with the purpose of optimizing the relationship between risk and return on investments, considering the characteristics of their liabilities. Accordingly, investments are concentrated in government and corporate securities with good credit quality in active and liquid markets, keeping a considerable amount invested in short-term assets, with immediate liquidity, to meet regular and contingent liquidity needs. In addition, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING constantly monitors the solvency conditions of its operations.

Below is a maturity analysis of estimated undiscounted future cash flows from insurance contracts and private pension, considering assumptions of inflows, outflows and discount rates (Note 27c):

ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING holds R$ 249,274 (R$ 224,140 at 12/31/2022) referring to amounts that are payable or demand, which represent contributions made by insured parties that can be redeemed at any time. All these amounts refer to contracts issued that are liabilities, and no group of contracts was in asset position in the period. 

IV - Credit risk

The credit risk arising from insurance contract premiums is not material, as cases with unpaid coverage are canceled after 90 days.

Reinsurance operations are controlled through an internal policy, observing the regulator's guidelines regarding the reinsurers with which ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING operates.

Taking out reinsurance is subject to an assessment of the reinsurer's credit risk and the operational limits for its consummation, and monitoring is carried out during the effectiveness to identify signs of deterioration that lead to changes in the analyzes conducted.

Note 33 - Supplementary information
