Information

This document has been prepared in accordance with the accounting framework established by the Central Bank of Argentina ("BCRA"), based on International Financial Reporting Standards ("I.F.R.S.") and the resolutions adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board ("I.A.S.B") and by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas ("F.A.C.P.E."), with the transitory exceptions: (i) the record of a prevision for contingencies referred to uncertain fiscal positions required by the BCRA, (ii) the adjustment in valuation established by the B.C.R.A. applied to the valuation of the remaining investment the Bank keeps of Prisma Medios de Pago S.A. ("Prisma"), and (iii) the temporary exclusion of the application of the IFRS 9 impairment model for non-financial public sector debt instruments.

As of 1Q20, the Bank started to inform its inflation adjusted results pursuant to IAS 29 reporting. To facilitate comparison, figures of comparable quarters of 2019 have been updated according to IAS 29 reporting to reflect the accumulated effect of inflation adjustment for each period up to December 31, 2020.

The information in this press release contains unaudited financial information that consolidates, line item by line item, all of the banking activities of BBVA Argentina, including: BBVA Asset Management Argentina S.A., Consolidar AFJP-undergoing liquidation proceeding, and as of July 1, 2019, PSA Finance Argentina Compañía Financiera S.A. ("PSA") and Volkswagen Financial Services Compañía Financiera S.A ("VWFS").

YoY

As of March 25, 2021

  • The National Congress passed the government´s proposal for a new pension mobility formula and is currently discussing a bill that aims to update the minimum non-taxable amount of income tax. This bill would cause a drop in tax collection, which the government expects to restore with an increase in private consumption, resulting from the additional income the lower taxation would cause, and the postponement of the reduction in the companies tax rate (from 30% to 25%).

INFLATION

  • February inflation (3.6% MoM, 40.7% YoY) was in line with the Central Bank consensus (3.5% MoM) and accumulated 7.8% in the first two months of 2021. Core inflation was 4.1% MoM maintaining the previous months trend. Prices should grow at 1.8% MoM on average for the rest of the year to fulfil the government´s 2021 target (29%). The monetary overhang, and the pressure this could have on the foreign exchange market, together with the expected increase in the public utility rates, could drive inflation above the government´s target for the rest of the year.

ACTIVITY

  • Economic Activity fell 9.9% YoY in 2020 (+4.5% QoQ s.a., -4.3% YoY in 4Q20) thus recording the sharpest decline since 2002. The aforementioned drop was mainly driven by the contractionary effects of the pandemic and the mobility restrictions. Financial intermediation (+2.1% YoY), together with electricity, gas and water services (+0.9% YoY) were the only sectors that grew in 2020, compared to 2019.

FISCAL POLICY

  • Primary fiscal deficit reached 6.5% GDP in 2020, the highest in 45 years. The Covid-19 assistance package (approx. 4.2% of GDP) is the main reason for the aforementioned outcome. The first two months of 2021 registered an ARS 5.3 bn fiscal surplus. The partial withdrawal of the assistance package should result in a fiscal deficit reduction for 2021 vs 2020.

SOVEREIGN DEBT

  • The National Treasury issued ARS 670 bn (ARS 168 bn fresh funds) in 2021. Maintaining this positive net financing is crucial for the government to reduce the monetary financing of the fiscal deficit. Minister Guzmán travelled to USA to meet with IMF representatives, regarding the negotiations for a new multi-annual program.
