At the margin, a seal with the National Coat of Arms, which says: United Mexican States.- Ministry of Finance and Public Credit.- National Banking and Securities Commission.

The National Banking and Securities Commission, with the agreement of its Board of Directors and based on the provisions of articles 17, fraction VI; 37, fraction I, subsection b); 40, fraction XVIII; 42; 46; 47; 49, fraction I; 50; 51, fifth paragraph and 62, first paragraph of the Credit Unions Law, as well as 4, fractions II, XXXVI and XXXVIII; 16, fraction I and 19 of the National Banking and Securities Commission Law,

AND CONSIDERING

That the Credit Unions Law grants various powers to the National Banking and Securities Commission to establish norms or standards whose determination will contribute to the development and stability of the credit union sector, which refer, among others, to the authorization processes of such financial entities, the credit process and file integration, as well as to the conceptualization of complementary or auxiliary services;

That in this regard, it is essential to establish the information and documentation that, in addition to that established in the Credit Unions Law, must be presented to the National Banking and Securities Commission by those interested in constituting and operating a credit union, which will provide greater legal certainty in the corresponding procedures, and the same reason applies to determine the additional information and documentation that must be presented to the Commission regarding persons who directly or indirectly intend to maintain a participation in the share capital of the merging entity, in the case of credit unions subject to merger processes;

That with respect to the credit activity developed by credit unions, in line with what is required for other financial entities subject to the supervision of the National Banking and Securities Commission that also grant credits, prudential provisions are established whose purpose is to ensure their solvency and stability, therefore the credit process is regulated, as well as the integration of files for the credits they grant, establishing for the first case, as a facility, that credit unions are exempt from constituting additional preventive provisions when it comes to labor credits, and for the second case, credit unions are exempt from updating said files when it comes to credit operations that are in the process of judicial collection;

That on the other hand, the prohibition is established for credit unions to demand the payment of interest on the credits they grant in advance, but that these payments could only be demanded for expired periods, in protection of the interests of the members of the credit unions;

That for the purpose of strengthening the internal control system of credit unions and ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the information they administer, as well as that of their members, the relevant norms are incorporated that will allow them to support their processes and carry out their operations through the use of computer systems in a secure and efficient manner, while establishing the obligation to have a person specialized in information control and security matters, who will be responsible for maintaining and monitoring compliance with controls, information classification processes and other functions related to information systems;

That in order to provide greater legal certainty, the services or operations that are considered as complementary or auxiliary services of credit unions are determined, as well as the requirements that societies that will provide said services must satisfy, and as a flexibilization of the norm, the circumstances in which these societies and companies will be supervised by the National Banking and Securities Commission are foreseen, and

That in order to facilitate compliance with their obligations, the deadline is specified in which credit unions must present to the National Banking and Securities Commission the agreement in which the approval by the board of directors regarding operations with related parties is recorded, has resolved to issue the following:

Regarding commercial credits with amounts less than the equivalent in national currency to four hundred thousand UDIs, persons who participate in credit promotion within the credit union may participate in the approval of credits for which they are also responsible for origination or negotiation.

Credit unions, when entering into operations on financial instruments, including derivatives, where there is counterparty risk, must open a credit line with their counterparties.

Article 86 Bis 11.- Credit unions must establish different evaluation methods to approve and grant different types of credit, observing, in all cases, the following:

No credit may proceed to the approval stage if the evaluation has not included the minimum information and documentation established in the credit manual and applicable provisions.

II.

Regarding commercial credits with amounts less than the equivalent in national currency to four hundred thousand UDIs, credit unions may use parametric methods for their approval, understood as those that allow evaluating the borrower qualitatively and quantitatively, based on standardized data and information, whose weighting to yield a favorable result has been previously defined by the credit union, in order to expedite and, where applicable, automate the analysis process of the borrower.

Credit unions that opt for the methods described in the preceding paragraph, in order to grant the corresponding credits, must comply, at minimum, with the following:

Have documentation of the parametric methodology used, including the established approval parameters and the description of the applied quantitative and qualitative analysis.

Maintain consistency in the parameters to be used for credit evaluation, according to their type and the results generated by the models.

Consider in the quantitative and qualitative evaluation, at minimum:

The solvency of the credit applicant.

The borrower's payment experience, reviewing for this purpose a Credit Information Report whose age is not greater than three months.

Regarding factoring operations, Discount, and Credit Rights Cession Operations, credit unions must determine if the credit risk falls on the factor, discounter, or ceder, or on the debtor of the transmitted credit rights. In all cases, credit unions must review the Credit Information Report of the person in whom they identify that the credit risk falls. This requirement shall not be applicable when dealing with the following entities:

Any entity with express guarantee of the Federal Government.

In the event that the risk falls on the debtor of the transmitted credit rights and operational difficulties arise that prevent obtaining their express authorization to consult their Credit Information Report, credit unions, in order to be able to comply with what this section states, may consult the Credit Information Report of the factor, discounter, or ceder, provided that this party has become jointly and severally liable with respect to the commitments of the debtor of the credit rights.

Payment capacity through the estimated income of the probable borrower, the relationship between the possible debtor's income and the payment of the obligation, and the relationship between the credit term and the capacity to generate resources; as well as the analysis of all other credits and other liabilities that the possible debtor has with the credit union and other financial entities.

Where applicable, the information and documentation of patrimonial assets presented by the possible borrower.

The minimum personal references required in the credit manual to prove the moral quality of the borrower.

The primary source of credit recovery.

Financial statement information, in the case that the borrower has them or the necessary information to estimate the income of the possible borrower.

Regarding commercial credits with amounts equal to or less than the equivalent in national currency to two thousand UDIs, once the parametric evaluation referred to in this section has been carried out, credit unions may conduct the borrower's study using this evaluation for the granting of subsequent credits, provided that it is not older than one year and the total amount of the credits does not exceed in its entirety an amount equivalent in national currency to twenty-five thousand UDIs.

III.

Regarding commercial credits, whose amount is equal to or greater than the equivalent in national currency to four hundred thousand UDIs, credit unions when establishing evaluation methods must comply, as appropriate, with the following:

In the quantitative and qualitative evaluation consider, at minimum:

The financial statements and, where applicable, their audits, the list of patrimonial assets, and in general, the information and documentation presented by the possible borrower.

Credit unions shall only consider external audit reports on financial statements when dealing with persons obliged to audit their financial statements for tax purposes, in accordance with article 52 of the Federal Tax Code in accordance with what is provided by article 32-A of the same Code.

The primary source of credit recovery.

Exposure to risk for all credit operations under the possible debtor, as well as their payment experience, reviewing for this purpose a Credit Information Report whose age is not greater than three months.

Additionally, to evaluate the credit risk exposure of derivative financial instruments, the volatility implicit in the value of the derivative instruments must be considered, this for the purpose of determining up to what level of maximum possible loss the counterparty can assume, and relating this contingency to the total amount of the credit line.

The solvency of the credit applicant.

The relationship between the possible debtor's income and the payment of the obligation, and the relationship between said payment and the amount of the credit.

The possible existence of common risks.

Where applicable, for credits with own payment source, the term must be established in relation to the maturity of the respective project. Additionally, the estimation of the borrower's future cash flows must be considered.

In operations where part of the resources to finance the asset or project in question corresponds to sources other than those financed by the credit union, it must be identified if such part comes from the possible debtor's own resources, or if they are obtained from another credit.

In the case of credits with real guarantees, the physical condition, legal situation, and insurance of the asset in question will be reviewed, as well as market circumstances, additionally considering an updated appraisal performed by an external appraiser, in accordance with the particular policies of each of the credit unions. Likewise, regarding personal guarantees, the guarantor will be evaluated as any other borrower.

The contracts and other legal instruments through which the operations are formalized must be approved by the legal area, prior to the celebration of these. For the credits referred to in the preceding letter c), such approval must be expressed in each case, by signature on the respective documents.

Any change to the terms and conditions that have been agreed upon in a credit, derived from restructurings, defaults, or lack of payment capacity, will be subject to a new evaluation and approval, and the procedures contained in the credit manual for this type of cases must be followed.

IV.

Regarding factoring operations, Discount, and Credit Rights Cession Operations, as appropriate, in the evaluation stage referred to in the preceding sections II and III, in addition, credit unions must:

Ensure, where applicable, the existence of the contract formalizing the operations between the provider of the goods or services and the debtor of the transmitted credit rights and that in said contract or in the document with which the credit right is accredited, clauses or legends that oppose the cession of the credit rights are not included.

Identify, in the case of Credit Rights Cession Operations, that the payment scheme allows the total recovery of the amount paid to the ceder of the rights.

Establish maximum terms for the factor, discounter, or ceder of the credit rights to deliver the resources to the credit union, when it has been agreed that the administration and collection of the credit rights will be carried out by the factor, discounter, or ceder of the credit rights.

Verify that the person who presents the assigned document in favor of the credit union is legally authorized for this purpose.

Ensure, where applicable, that the document assigned to their favor has not been presented to back another obligation by the factor, discounter, or ceder of the credit rights, at least with the information available in the credit unions and from the consultation they carry out with any public registry.

Identify the operational risks that could arise in this type of operations, as well as potential agreements between the factor, discounter, or ceder and the debtor of the transmitted credit rights to the detriment of the credit union, and carry out the administration of these risks in accordance with the Comprehensive Risk Management that the credit union has determined. These risks must be reported to the corresponding risk areas, as well as to internal audit and control areas so that they are followed up during the administration stage of these operations.

In the case of Credit Rights Cession Operations, where the collection of the resources granted to the ceder intends to be carried out through an administration trust and payment source, credit unions must ensure that:

There is independence between the administrator of said trust and the person in whom the credit risk falls.

The trust can immediately reconcile the cash flows it receives with the invoices or credit rights that gave rise to them.
