The new shares will begin to bear interest from January 1st, 2024.

This initiative is part of a strategy to strengthen the bank's equity, aiming to support its growth and improve its investment capacity in a constantly evolving economic context.

Shareholders are invited to actively participate in this meeting, which could have a significant impact on the bank's future.
