30. That, with respect to the gravity of the damage to the
public interest and/or protected legal good, the presentation of periodic information by issuers of securities registered in the RPMV and the implementation of corrective measures constitute fundamental obligations to achieve the transparency of the securities market, since with this it is sought to guarantee that all market participants make their investment decisions adequately informed. In this sense, the omission of presentation of financial information affects the transparency of the market, which is considered a protected legal good; and therefore, it causes serious damage to the public interest;
31. That, with relation to the economic harm caused
and its repercussion on the market, we must point out that in the present PAS it has not been evidenced that there has been a quantifiable harm, understood as an economic damage occasioned to one or several investors;

It also states that the commission of the same infraction in the year prior to the infraction to be sanctioned is not considered antecedents. In application of said criterion, it has been verified that the Issuer has five (5) sanction antecedents as detailed in the Report;
33. That, with relation to recidivism for the commission
of the same infraction letter b) of article 25 of the Sanctions Regulation establishes that the final sanction imposed by the SMV within the period of one (1) year prior to the commission of the infraction to be sanctioned is taken into account. Regarding this, it has been verified that there is no recidivism on the part of the Issuer, according to what was evaluated in the Report;
34. That, regarding the circumstances of the commission
of the infraction, we must point out that the non-compliances by RBC have been duly accredited through the review of the information systems presented by the issuers and by the review of the information that is published on the Institutional Page of the SMV on the Single Digital Platform of the Peruvian State for Citizen Orientation (hereinafter, Institutional Page of the SMV) 6 .

However, it is necessary to indicate, despite the fact that there are no indications of the Issuer's acting with respect to its intent, it is affirmed that the Issuer's conduct was negligent since it did not act with the diligence expected given previously known obligations in its capacity as an issuer with securities registered in the RPMV;
37. That, with relation to the probability of detection of
the infraction, it must be pointed out that the failure to present periodic or eventual information; is verified through internal control systems, so it is considered that for this type of non-compliance, the probability of detection is high, since it results as a consequence of the supervision activities of the SMV;
38. That, finally, for the purpose of determining the
proposal of sanction, it must be taken into account that in the present PAS it is not observed that there are exemptions of administrative responsibility 8 for infractions; APPLICATION OF A SANCTION CORRESPONDING TO A CLASSIFICATION LOWER THAN PRESCRIBED

non-compliances on the presentation of financial information and the implementation of corrective measures, the Issuer has incurred nine (9) infractions of a serious nature, whose fine would correspond to be applied between the range of twenty-five (25) up to fifty (50), however, it is considered that in application of the principle of reasonableness, in the present PAS, it would be applicable what is provided by the last paragraph of article 25 of the Sanctions Regulation, which states that: “When, from the evaluation of the aforementioned criteria, it is evident that there is no proportionality between the sanction to be imposed and the imputed facts, by exception and through a reasoned resolution, a sanction corresponding to a classification lower than the prescribed may be imposed.”;

for the following considerations: i) to date there has been no claim or complaint from any shareholder and/or investor against the Issuer, so it can be affirmed that to date it has not been evidenced that the non-compliances have produced a quantifiable harm, understood as an economic damage occasioned to one or several investors; ii) although the Issuer has sanction antecedents, it is not

dates of the commission of facts under analysis, during the period comprised between March 12 and December 03, 2024, no operation has been carried out in bursa trading with the securities RBCAC1 and RBCBC1 of the Issuer; and, on the other hand, the Issuer is subject to an Ordinary Concursal Procedure since October 25, 2021, from which its Patrimonial Restructuring Plan has been approved since July of 2022;
