2024 Annual Earnings Highlights
Key Highlights
Profit Rises Despite NII Drop Net profit attributable to owners grew to Ps. 360.4B in 2024 from Ps. 342.4B in 2023, driven by gains on securities and lower tax expense.
Asset Quality Shows Improvement NPL ratio decreased to 1.13% by year-end 2024 from 1.29% in 2023; coverage ratio improved significantly to 177.00%.
Deposits and Loans Expanded Total deposits grew strongly to Ps. 9.93T, supporting loan portfolio expansion to Ps. 8.28T, reflecting business activity recovery.
Robust Capital Adequacy Maintained Basel Accord Total Capital Ratio stood at a strong 21.4% as of December 31, 2024, well above the 8% regulatory minimum.
Risk Factors
Argentine Macroeconomic Instability Continued high inflation (117.8% annual CPI in 2024) and political uncertainty pose material risks to asset quality and operational stability.
Interest Rate Volatility Pressure Monetary policy shifts caused NIM compression (39.94% vs 40.41%) and volatility in net interest income due to repricing mismatches.
FX Controls and Regulatory Burden Existing and potential exchange controls and complex regulatory frameworks increase operational costs and limit financial flexibility for foreign currency transactions.
Rising Non-Performing Loans The absolute NPL portfolio increased to Ps. 112.8B by year-end 2024 from Ps. 76.7B in 2023, despite the ratio improvement.
Outlook
Monetary Policy Easing Expected Central Bank reduced policy rate to 29% by early 2025; continued disinflation may allow further rate moderation, impacting funding costs.
Private Sector Lending Diversification Strategy shifts focus from public sector lending to private sector growth, introducing new challenges in credit risk management and portfolio quality.
Digital Transformation Acceleration Bank continues significant investment in digital platforms (BBVA App, MODO) to enhance customer experience and operational efficiency.
Fiscal Surplus Achieved in 2024 Government achieved a 1.8% primary fiscal surplus in 2024, a positive step, but political pressure on spending remains a key uncertainty.
