Article 11. Calculation of Rates 7
11.1 Companies, in accordance with what is provided in article 9 of the General Law, may freely determine the interest rates for their active and passive products, within the limits established by the Central Reserve Bank of Peru, if applicable, and considering for this purpose what is indicated in article 6 of the Supplementary Law to the Consumer Protection Law in Matters of Financial Services.
11.2 Compensatory interest rates must be expressed in effective annual form, considering for this purpose that it is a year of three hundred sixty (360) days. For their calculation and application, companies must take into account the regulation on the matter issued by the Central Reserve Bank of Peru in accordance with its Organic Law.
11.3 The default interest rate, in cases of default or delay in the payment of the credit, must be expressed and applied as a nominal annual rate, non-capitalizable, considering for this purpose that it is a year of three hundred sixty (360) days. This, in accordance with what is provided in article 6 of the Supplementary Law to the Consumer Protection Law in Matters of Financial Services.

Article 12. Interest Rates that Depend on a Variable Factor
12.1 Companies must indicate, in a simple and clear manner, the way in which the rate is determined at each moment, including its periodicity of change or the conditions that determine its modification, within the limits established by the Central Reserve Bank if applicable. This rate must not be susceptible to unilateral adjustment by the company itself or by virtue of agreements or practices with other entities. 8
12.2 If the interest rate that depends on a variable factor in fixed-term credits and fixed-term deposits considers a spread associated with said indicator, for the modification of said spread, the same treatment contemplated for the fixed interest rate applies. By virtue of the foregoing, any modification occurs only if the requirements established in article 31 are met.

Article 13. Effective Annual Cost Rate
13.1 The effective annual cost rate (TCEA) is the rate that allows comparing the total cost of an active product. It is calculated by equating the present value of all installments with the amount that was effectively received as a loan. For this calculation, installments involving the principal, interest, commissions, and expenses, which according to the pact are passed on to the client, including insurance in cases of consumer and/or mortgage housing credits, are included. Payments for services provided by third parties that are directly paid by the client, nor the taxes that are applicable, are not included in this calculation.
13.2 The calculations of the TCEA, for the case of active products under the installment system, proceed under the assumption of compliance with all agreed conditions, using the formula indicated in Annex No. 1 of the Regulation.
13.3 The calculations of the TCEA for the case of active products under the revolving system, due to their characteristics, are performed assuming a standardized pattern of cost comparison and proceed under the assumption of compliance with all agreed conditions, according to what is indicated in Annex No. 1-A of the Regulation.

Article 14. Effective Annual Yield Rate
14.1 The effective annual yield rate (TREA) is the rate that allows comparing the total yield of a passive product. It considers all charges for commissions and expenses, including insurance, when applicable, under the assumption of compliance with all agreed conditions. Not included in this calculation are payments for services provided by third parties that are directly paid by the client, nor the taxes that are applicable.

14.2 The TREA for fixed-term deposits is calculated by equating the amount deposited with the present value of the amount actually received at the maturity of the term and/or all partial amounts received up to their maturity.
14.3 The TREA, for the case of deposits other than those indicated in item 14.2, is calculated assuming a standardized pattern of product yield comparison. For the calculation of the TREA, a reference amount is used assuming that there are no additional transactions to the opening of the account, using the formula indicated in Annex No. 2 of the Regulation.
Article 15. Minimum balance
15.1 The minimum balance in a savings account is the balance that must be maintained in said account, without any transaction being made, to generate sufficient interest in a thirty (30) day month to cover the commissions and expenses associated with the maintenance of said account, in such a way that at the end of the month the deposited capital is not lost nor is yield earned.
15.2 When due to the existence of different ranges for the application of interest and for the charging of commissions and expenses, it is not possible to determine a balance in which these concepts compensate each other as indicated in the previous item, but rather that there is a balance from which one passes directly from a monthly loss to a monthly gain, the minimum balance is considered to be that amount in which the lowest positive yield is recorded.

27.1 Companies are subject to the requirements established in the Regulation on Marketing of Insurance Products, the norms that modify or replace it.
27.2 Additionally, companies that offer insurance considered as a condition for contracting, such as mortgage life insurance to cover housing mortgages and insurance for the protection of the collateral asset, must observe the following:

1. They must inform users that they have the right to choose between contracting the insurance offered by the companies, or an insurance contracted directly by the user or through the designation of an insurance broker; provided that it meets, to the satisfaction of the companies, the previously informed conditions. The dissemination of this information must be carried out in the offer of products that consider insurance as a condition for contracting, through the mechanisms used by companies for this purpose:
   a) In the case where the user proves the contracting, on their own, of an insurance that meets the conditions established by the company, they are not obliged to take the offered insurance and can substitute it with the one they contracted. In this case, the insurance must be endorsed in favor of the company up to the amount of the outstanding balance. b) The endorsed insurance does not generate an additional commission or expense for the user, provided it is a life insurance that replaces the mortgage life insurance offered by the company. By virtue of the endorsement, the company may agree with the user that the payment of the insurance premium is added to the payment of the periodic installments previously agreed for the credit or debited from a passive product. The endorsement and payment method, by agreement of the parties, can be processed by the user before the insurance system company issuing the policy and delivered to the companies, or by the companies. c) If the user contracts the insurance marketed by the company, it must deliver to the insured the individual insurance policies or, where applicable, the insurance certificates referred to in the Market Conduct Management Regulation of the Insurance System approved by the Superintendency, issued by the insurance system companies.
2. The payment date of indemnities to the companies is the one that must be considered to settle the active operation. Companies have a maximum period referred to in the Regulation for the Management and Payment of Claims, approved by Resolution SBS No. 3202-2013, to effect the settlement.
3. Additional clauses to the contracted mortgage life insurance policies, regardless of whether they are a condition for contracting or not, must be optional. Companies must request the express consent of users for each additional coverage; for this purpose, companies must safeguard the corresponding support for such express consent. 28
   27.3 Mortgage life insurance in products other than housing mortgages is optional. In this case, if the user decides to contract the optional mortgage life insurance, companies must request the express consent of users for each insurance product contracted optionally and safeguard the corresponding support for such express consent.
   27.4 The provision in paragraph 27.3 regarding the optional nature of mortgage life insurance in credits other than housing mortgages is understood to be fulfilled when companies offer within the portfolio of each of their credit products, at least one that does not require the contracting of mortgage life insurance, informing users about its existence prior to the contracting of any product, and keeping the support for the compliance with this obligation.
   28 Item incorporated by Resolution SBS No. 3240-2023 of 03/10/2023, effective from 02/04/2024.

Article 28. Companies' responsibility in the contracting of notarial services 2930
Companies are subject to what is established in the Code for the use of notarial services, in the framework of the contracting of financial products and services, for which they must:

1. Inform users that they have the right to free choice of notaries.
2. Use only the services of notaries who are on the lists managed by the Notary Colleges.
3. Facilitate users' access to the list of notaries made available by the Notary Colleges.
4. Send to the notaries the requests for exception referred to in the second final complementary provision of Law No. 30908 presented by users, for their evaluation.
   Article 29. Early payment and advance of installments
   29.1 Users have the right to make payments above the required installment in the period, considering the following for this purpose:
5. Conditions or limitations for the exercise of the right must not be established.
6. Commissions, expenses, penalties of any kind for the exercise of the right or charges of a similar nature or effect cannot be applied.
7. The amount applicable for taxes must be informed at the time of making the operation.
8. Companies must make available to users for making early payment and advance of installment operations, at minimum, the same channels used for the payment of installments or credit card obligations, without additional procedures or requirements being demanded from the user.
   3132
   29.2 Payments made above the required installment in the period, in the case of credits under the installment system, can be classified as:
9. Early payment.- payment that results in the application of the amount to the credit capital, with the consequent reduction of interest, commissions, and expenses derived from contractual clauses up to the date of payment.
10. Advance of installments.- payment that results in the application of the paid amount to the installments immediately following the one required in the period, without a reduction in interest, commissions, and expenses derived from contractual clauses.
    29.3 Payments greater than two (2) installments (which includes the one required in the period) are considered early payments. In these cases, companies must request from clients, at the time of making the payment, to indicate whether the amount of the remaining installments should be reduced but maintaining the original term, or the number of installments with the consequent reduction of the credit term. The choice must be made through the mechanisms established for this purpose in the contracts, and companies must keep a record allowing to verify the choice made. Likewise, in cases where such choice is not available, companies must proceed to reduce the number of installments, within fifteen (15) days of the payment being made.
    In the case of early payment, companies must deliver, at the request of clients, modified payment schedules, considering the payment made, within a period not exceeding seven (7) days from the date of such request. Companies must inform the client about the possibility of requesting the aforementioned schedules, leaving a record of this action, as appropriate to the payment channel used. Clients may expressly manifest their will to advance the payment of installments, with companies proceeding to apply the excess amount paid on the period's installment to the immediately following installments, as established in subsection 29.4. On each occasion when clients express their will to make an advance of installments, without a reduction in interest, commissions, and expenses derived from contractual clauses, and prior to the execution of the payment, companies must request and keep a record accrediting the clients' choice to make an advance of installments instead of an early payment, referencing in both cases their economic implications.
    29.4 Payments less than or equal to the equivalent of two (2) installments (which include the one required in the period) are considered advance of installments. In these cases, companies proceed to apply the excess amount paid on the period's installment to the immediately following unpaid installments.
    Clients may request, before or at the time the payment is made, that the payment be processed as early, resulting in the application of what is indicated in subsection 29.3.
    29.5 Total early payments in revolving system obligations are applied considering a reduction of interest, commissions, and expenses derived from contractual clauses up to the date the payment is made, if applicable.
    29.6 Partial early payments in revolving system obligations, which are those made above the minimum payment, must consider the following:
11. Partial early payments in credit card obligations are made considering the rule of order of imputation of payments referred to in the Credit and Debit Card Regulation.
12. Partial early payments must be applied considering a reduction of interest, commissions, and expenses derived from contractual clauses, if applicable.

30.3 The requirements indicated in the preceding subsections do not apply when it comes to contractual modifications that imply more favorable conditions for clients, which are applied immediately.

Article 31. Modification of interest rates
Companies must inform clients of the modification of interest rates in contracts other than fixed-term credits or fixed-term deposits, in advance, when it comes to increases in the case of active products and reductions in the case of passive products. The communication of the information must be made with an advance of no less than forty-five (45) days indicating the date or moment from which the modification will enter into force.
Article 32. Modification of fixed-term credits or fixed-term deposits
32.1 In fixed-term credit or fixed-term deposit contracts, the agreed interest rate can only be modified in the following cases: 33

1. In fixed-term credit contracts: by novation of the obligation, considering for this purpose what is established in the Civil Code.
2. In fixed-term deposit contracts: by renewal of the deposit, for which companies must previously communicate any variation of the agreed conditions, if these imply a detriment to the client. This communication must be made through the mechanisms indicated in subsection 2 of Article 36, before the maturity date of the deposit.
3. When there is effective negotiation, on each occasion when such modifications are intended to be made. It is understood that there is effective negotiation when it can be evidenced that the clause contemplating the possibility of modifying the interest rate does not constitute a mass condition that is part of the adhesion contract and conditions its signing; that is, when it can be evidenced that the user has influenced the content of the clause.
   32.2 Additionally, interest rate modifications may be made in fixed-term credit or fixed-term deposit contracts, in the following cases:
4. When the Superintendency, prior to a favorable report from the Central Reserve Bank of Peru, authorizes the financial system in general due to extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances that put the system itself at risk, in accordance with what is stated in Article 6 of the Supplementary Law to the Consumer Protection Law in Financial Services.
5. When they imply more favorable conditions for clients, which are applied immediately. In this case, sending a prior communication is not required; without prejudice to this, companies must inform of the new conditions through the mechanisms agreed with clients for this purpose.

In the case of periodic execution commissions and/or expenses, the increased charge becomes applicable from the following period after the notice period has expired. The obligation to inform also applies in the
   33 Item modified by Resolution SBS No. 3966-2018 of 11/10/2018

Los Laureles Nº 214 - Lima 27 - Perú Telf.: (511) 6309000 Fax: (511) 6309239 20 case of modifications to contractual conditions other than interest rates, commissions, expenses, and increases in the credit line. 34
33.2 The requirement considered in the preceding paragraph does not apply when it comes to
contractual modifications that imply more favorable conditions for clients and/or that constitute additional facilities to those existing and that do not imply the loss or substitution of previously established conditions. In this case, sending prior notice is not required; without prejudice to this, companies must inform clients of the new conditions through the mechanisms that they agree upon with clients for this purpose.
Article 34. Modifications in the payment schedule
When unilateral contractual modifications vary the information reported in the payment schedule contained in the summary sheet, companies must send to clients with a notice of no less than forty-five (45) days, together with the prior notice referred to in the preceding articles, the recalculated schedule, considering the information regarding the Effective Annual Cost (TCEA) corresponding to the remaining balance of the active product. This concept must be identified in the new schedule as “Remaining TCEA”.
Article 35. Modification of the Effective Annual Rate (TREA) and/or minimum equilibrium balance
35.1 When contractual modifications vary the TREA and/or the minimum equilibrium balance, the
companies must send to clients, together with the prior notice and within the period referred to in the preceding articles, the referred rate and/or recalculated minimum equilibrium balance.
35.2 The requirements indicated in the preceding paragraph do not apply when it comes to
contractual modifications that imply more favorable conditions for clients, which are applied immediately.

Article 36. Means of communication to be used
Companies must use direct means of communication, which allow leaving a record of the communication, such as communications by physical or electronic means, for the contractual modifications referred to in 35:

1. Companies must use direct means of communication, which allow leaving a record of the
   communication, such as written communications to the client's address, emails, statements, text messages, instant messaging and/or telephone communications to the client, for the contractual modifications referred to:
   a) Interest rates, penalties, commissions, and expenses when such modifications generate a detriment to users. The foregoing also applies to modifications to the payment schedule, TCEA, TREA, and/or minimum equilibrium balance, in the case of active or passive products, respectively. b) The termination of the contract for causes other than default or different from the scenarios in
   Article 41.
   c) The limitation or exemption of liability by the companies. d) Incorporation of services that are not directly related to the contracted financial product or service.

indicated, means of communication must be used that allow clients to take adequate and timely knowledge of the modifications to be made, according to what is agreed upon for this purpose with them.
3. A record must be kept regarding the communications made to clients.
Article 37. Rules applicable to the increase of the credit line
Increases in the credit line cannot be made through unilateral modifications by companies. In this sense, it does not correspond to give prior notice as stated in
Article 33, but rather the express consent of the client must be requested on each occasion in which this
is done, through the mechanisms that companies agree upon with clients for this purpose, leaving express record of the date from which the increase in the credit line proceeds. The client's silence cannot be considered as a sign of acceptance.
Article 38. Incorporation of services that are not directly related to the
contracted financial product or service
Contractual modifications associated with the incorporation of services that are not directly related to the contracted financial product or service and that, therefore, do not constitute a condition for contracting, proceed provided that prior notice is given with a notice of no less than forty-five (45) days, through the means of communication indicated in paragraph 1 of subsection 36.1 of Article 36, granting the client the right to accept the proposed modification, without the client's refusal implying a termination of the main contract.
Article 39. Contractual termination at the user's request
39.1 Companies must make available channels of easy access for the user to exercise their
right to terminate the contract, establishing as a minimum the same channels used to contract the financial product or service, without additional requirements or demands being applicable that hinder the exercise of this right. Companies must have available to the Superintendence, the justification for the limitations that exist in the channels used for contracting, in which the termination of contracts is not allowed. 36
39.2 In the case of contracting through mechanisms other than written, companies may attend to the
contractual termination requests through the other channels that the company has available for contracting, without in any case imposing additional requirements or demands that hinder the exercise of this right.
39.3 Contracts must establish the conditions applicable in case the client decides to terminate them due
to unilateral modifications that are detrimental to them and that do not originate from the imposition of regulatory obligations.
39.4 Regarding active products, contracts must specify the manner in which the payment of the
obligation proceeds prior to the termination of the contract, considering the nature of the obligation assumed and what is stipulated in letter b) of Article 47 and letter e) of subsection 56.1 of Article 56 of the Code. For this purpose, companies must grant a reasonable period for the client, if they deem it necessary, to find another financing mechanism, which must be no less than forty-five (45) days. Granting a longer period to make the total payment of the obligation prior to the termination of the contract does not prevent the company, if deemed applicable, from proceeding with the 36 Subsection modified by SBS Resolution No. 3966-2018 of 11/10/2018

Los Laureles Nº 214 - Lima 27 - Perú Telf.: (511) 6309000 Fax: (511) 6309239 22 corresponding charge for the fee resulting from the contractual modification, once the notice period indicated in the Regulation has been fulfilled.
Article 40. Unilateral contractual termination
Companies may unilaterally terminate the contracts entered into, communicating this to their clients, in accordance with the termination clauses agreed upon for this purpose.
Article 41. Termination or modification by application of prudential norms
41.1 Companies may choose not to contract or modify the contracts entered into with users in
aspects other than interest rates, commissions, or expenses, and even terminate them, without prior notice as referred to in Article 30, as a consequence of the application of prudential norms issued by the Superintendence, such as those related to the management of over-indebtedness risk of retail debtors, due to considerations of the client's profile linked to the system for the prevention of money laundering or terrorist financing, due to lack of transparency of users, among other scenarios determined by the Superintendence, in accordance with what is stated in Article 85 of the Code.
41.2 The lack of transparency of users referred to in the preceding paragraph occurs when
in the evaluation performed on the information indicated or presented by users before contracting or during the contractual relationship, it is derived that such information is inaccurate, incomplete, false or inconsistent with the information previously declared or delivered by the user and negatively impacts the reputational or legal risk faced by the company.
41.3 Companies must apply what is stipulated in subsection 41.1 provided that previously it is made
known to users, through contractual forms, about the situations that may affect contracting or the contractual relationship. Likewise, the personnel of the companies must inform about this to users before signing the contractual form.
41.4 If companies decide to terminate the contract signed with the user or modify the contractual
conditions, for the causes indicated in subsection 41.1, they must send a communication to the address of clients or through the mechanisms established for this purpose in the contracts, within seven (7) days following such modification or termination, a period that may be extended by the Superintendence through a multiple letter. The communication must state that the termination or modification of the contract is carried out based on what is stipulated in Article 85 of the Code, in those cases in which this occurs as a consequence of the detection of activities that threaten the system for the prevention of money laundering or due to lack of transparency.
41.5 Companies must have policies and procedures for the application of what is stated in this
article, as well as maintain the justification for their decisions, which must be available to this
Superintendence.
41.6 When information requests by government entities concern
cases in which the initiation, termination, or modification of the contract is associated with the regime for the prevention of money laundering, only the entity is communicated that the contracting, termination, or modification were carried out in accordance with what is stipulated by Article 85 of the Code. 37

Additionally, companies must issue, at the user's request, the document in which the individual cancellation of a loan is recorded, without prejudice to the existence of other unpaid obligations. For this purpose, companies may implement the same treatment indicated in the previous paragraph or an internal procedure that is informed to the user at the time of receiving their request. In the case where a movable vehicle guarantee or mortgage has been constituted, and this does not guarantee other obligations, the document containing the unilateral declaration of release of the guarantee must additionally be included.

DISSEMINATION AND SUPERVISION OF FORMULAS AND THE SIMULATOR FOR THE SETTLEMENT OF INTERESTS AND PAYMENTS
Article 42. Dissemination of formulas and the simulator for the settlement of interest and payments
42.1 Companies must disseminate, through their website, the formulas and explanatory examples
applicable to the following active and passive products: checking account deposits, savings deposits, term deposits, CTS deposits, mortgage loans, MIVIVIENDA loans, vehicle loans, credit cards, and other consumer loans. The use of simulators is mandatory, only for active products under the installment system, in the case of compliance with the agreed conditions.
42.2 The information related to formulas and explanatory examples must be found next to the

42.3 Companies organize the information according to the categories of the products previously
referred to, considering those that the company currently offers to users and those that are no longer offered but still have active contracts. Likewise, companies organize the information by product, understanding product as the modality that possesses characteristics that distinguish it from other modalities, such as the payment method, the currency, or any other attribute that implies a variant in the formula, and which generally has a commercial name identifiable by clients.
42.4 In the offices where the aforementioned active and passive products can be requested,
companies must deliver, at the user's request, the result of the execution of the simulations for 39 Paragraph modified by SBS Resolution No. 1741-2026 of 01/07/2026, effective from 27/06/2027.

50.3 The approval of general contract clauses does not exempt companies from the evaluation to which there may be grounds within the framework of the supervisory and control powers of the Superintendency, regarding the business practices that companies apply to their users, as well as from requiring modifications if these practices prove contrary to the approved clauses.

In case the request for approval of general contract clauses presented contains said clauses, their verification and approval proceed following a swift procedure. If the requests contain clauses that have not been previously approved by the Superintendency, they continue the regular prior approval process.
   Article 52. Dissemination of general contract clauses and requirements applicable in front of norms of an imperative nature
   52.1 Companies must disseminate, through their website, the contractual forms that have general contract clauses approved by the Superintendency, indicating the resolution number through which they were approved; as well as, the Summary Sheet and Information Booklet linked to the approved general contract clauses.

Sixth.- Treatment of clients with temporary difficulties for the payment of credits within the framework of a declaration of a state of emergency 64 Companies may make contractual modifications of credits within the framework of a declaration of a state of emergency. Companies that have made unilateral modifications, or that plan to make modifications by agreement with users regarding the contractual conditions of credits granted to clients who present or may present temporary delays in their payments, according to the provisions issued by the Superintendency within the framework of a declaration of a state of emergency and others that are applicable, must establish policies and procedures for the treatment of said clients and offer alternatives consistent with their financial situation and payment capacity. Such treatment is part of the credit administration service and collection management and, therefore, an essential service and/or inherent to the credit, as stated in Article 17 of the Regulation. 62 Substituted

These cards must allow access to payment networks and infrastructure, including the consumption of goods and services, without this implying the charging of a membership fee, as these are essential or inherent services. Likewise, companies offer the services associated with these cards as established in the Credit and Debit Card Regulation. Eighth.- Credit life insurance 6667 In the case of the marketing of credit life insurance, regardless of whether it is or is not a condition for contracting, companies must observe the following: 68

70
8. Companies must calculate the charge for credit life insurance proportionally to the amount of the outstanding debt balance. In the case of revolving credits, said charge must be proportional to the average of the daily debtor balances of the user's billing period, applying the following methodology:
SDp = ( )
Premium = Rate * SDp
Where:
SDi: Debtor balance of day i
N: Number of days of the billing cycle
SDp: Average of daily debtor balances
Rate: Percentage determined by the insurance company
9. The charge for the commercial premium of a credit life insurance on a credit product can only be demanded in a single sum in the currency in which said credit product was agreed, regardless of its conditions. 71
Companies must publish on their website the information of the commercial premium of the credit life insurances they market, indicating the charge for marketing and/or brokerage commissions, if applicable. This information must be sent through the Report of Commissions and Main Expenses applied by companies of the Financial System, approved by Resolution SBS No. 2998-2024. 72 Ninth.- Development of internal policies and procedures for the attention of persons with disabilities 73 Companies must develop internal policies and procedures for the attention of persons with disabilities in order to ensure that they can access and use all channels made available by companies.

ANNEX No. 1-A
CALCULATION OF THE ANNUAL EFFECTIVE COST RATE FOR ACTIVE PRODUCTS UNDER THE REVOLVING SYSTEM To provide comparative information on active products under the revolving system, the calculation of the Effective Annual Cost Rate (TCEA) applicable to the revolving component must consider the following parameters:

1. Consumption of S/ 1000, if the currency of the credit line is in Soles, or US$ 300, if the currency of the credit line is in US Dollars, assuming that the account does not have prior debt. No other consumption or movement of the credit line should be considered.
2. Maximum Effective Annual Rate (TEA) applicable to the credit line, which is in effect at the time of calculating the TCEA or, in the case of a credit card, the maximum TEA applicable to purchases of goods and services under the revolving modality, according to the current tariff. For credit cards, and for the purposes of this calculation, the rates applicable to cash withdrawals or for the purchase of debt from other entities, or other special rates managed by the company, shall not be considered.
3. Term of 12 months. The consumption must be considered to have occurred up to 30 days before the corresponding billing closing.
4. Monthly installments with the values of the minimum payments resulting from adding the capital balance applied by a revolving factor of 24, interest, commissions, and expenses. Minimum thresholds of S/ 30, if the currency of the credit line is in Soles, or US$ 10, if the currency of the credit line is in US Dollars, must be considered for the capital amortization component of the minimum payment in each currency. In installment No. 12, the total debt must be paid off.
5. Commissions and expenses applicable under the assumption of compliance with the payment of monthly installments, excluding from the calculation in all cases those corresponding to client requests (such as the cost for sending account statements by physical means). For credit cards, the annual membership fee must be considered in installment No. 12. 76
   Regarding the calculation of the TCEA for the non-revolving component (installments), the following parameters must be considered:
6. Credit amount or consumption for the sum of S/. 1000, if the currency of the credit line is in Soles, or US$. 300, if the currency of the credit line is in US Dollars, assuming that the account does not have prior debt. No other consumption or movement of the credit line should be considered.
7. Maximum Effective Annual Rate (TEA) applicable to the credit line that is in effect at the time of calculating the TCEA or, in the case of a credit card, the maximum TEA applicable to purchases of goods and services under the installment scheme, according to the current tariff. For credit cards, and for the purposes of this calculation, the rates applicable to cash withdrawals or for the purchase of debt from other entities, or other special rates managed by the company, are not considered, unless it is a specific example of such type of financing.
8. Term of 12 months. The consumption must be considered to have occurred 30 days before the corresponding billing closing.
9. Constant monthly installments.
10. Commissions and expenses applicable under the assumption of compliance with the payment of monthly installments, excluding from the calculation in all cases those corresponding to client requests (such as the cost for sending account statements by physical means). For credit cards, the annual membership fee must be considered in installment No. 12. 77

ANNEX No. 2
CALCULATION OF THE EFFECTIVE ANNUAL YIELD
To calculate the Effective Annual Yield Rate (TREA), the initial deposit amount must be considered as one thousand new soles (S/. 1000.00), one thousand US dollars (US$ 1000.00), or one thousand euros (€ 1000.00), according to the calculation and term indicated in the Regulation, assuming that during said term there are no additional transactions other than the opening of the account. For deposits in other currencies, the Superintendence communicates via multiple letter the amounts to be used. Likewise, when the passive product requires a minimum opening amount higher than the initial deposit amounts mentioned above, said minimum opening amounts must be used for the purposes of the example. Additionally to the example, for savings accounts, the minimum equilibrium balance must be indicated. To homogenize the calculation of the effective annual yield rate, the deposit balance schedule must be generated considering the following procedure:
11. The initial deposit amount is taken as the initial amount for the first period (MI1).
12. The interest corresponding to the first period (I1), as well as the total commissions and expenses applicable in that period (C1), are calculated.
13. The final amount for the first period (MF1) is calculated using the following formula:
MF1 = MI1 + I1 - C1
14. The final amount for the first period is considered as the initial amount for the second period (MI2).
15. Steps 2, 3, and 4 are repeated, taking into account the corresponding period, as many times as there are interest payment periods or commission and expense charging periods for the deposit, until reaching the final amount in the last period (MFT), where “T” represents the last period.
16. The TREA is equal to:
TREA = (MFT / MI1)^(1/P) - 1
Where “P” is equal to the number of periods in a year.
In the event that the deposit is for an indefinite term, a term of 12 months is considered for the calculation (T = 12, P = 12).
