Sole Paragraph. CodItems 7016, 7017, 7018, and 7019 must not be reported by Savings and Loan Associations, Real Estate Credit Societies, and/or Credit Cooperatives.

Art. 3. The calculations of the deductibility requirements established in art. 5º-A of Circular No. 3,975 of 2020, and consequently, the mandatory reserve to be collected, will be performed as follows:

OpCapGiro = CodItem 7016

SomaDPGE = CodItem 7017 + CodItem 7018 + CodItem 7019

OpDPGE = Smaller between (SomaDPGE; (CodItem 7018 + CodItem 7019) / 30%)

SomaOp = OpCapGiro + OpDPGE

PLivre (VSR proportion in free savings) = VSRlivre/(VSRlivre+VSRRural)

PRural (VSR proportion in Rural Savings) = VSRrural/(VSRlivre+VSRRural)

Pre_Exigível_L = free savings mandatory reserve without deductions

Pre_Exigível_R = rural savings mandatory reserve without deductions

DeducLivre = Smaller between (PLivre x SomaOp; 30% Pré_Exigível_L)

DeducRural = Smaller between (PRural x SomaOp; 30% Pré_Exigível_R)

Art. 4. In case of non-compliance with the minimum amounts referred to in art. 7, § 3º, of Circular No. 3,975 of 2020, the remuneration paid to the financial institution will be calculated according to the provisions of the formula contained in the caput of said article, whereby 30% (thirty percent) of the calculated mandatory reserve value will be deducted from the value of variable S, respectively, for the free and rural modalities.

Art. 5. For each of the CodItems active in the production environment since June 2002, "7001 – Free Savings Deposits", "7002 - APE – Resources from Savings Members", "7011 - Rural Savings Deposits", "7021 - Peculio Savings Deposits", "7031 - Linked Savings Deposits", and "7032 - Linked Savings Deposits-Linked Credit Card", the reported value remains the balance, as of the reference date, of all savings deposits of the respective modality, regardless of whether they were made before or from May 4, 2012.
