FAIR VALUES |
The Group classifies the fair values of the financial instruments in 3 levels, according to the quality of the information used for their determination. Fair Value Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (as publicly traded derivative instruments, debt securities or instruments available for sale) is based on the quoted market prices (not adjusted) as of the date of the reporting period. If the quoted price is available within the 5 business days of the valuation date, and there is an active market for the instrument, this will be included in Level 1. Fair Value Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments not traded in active markets, for example, derivatives available over-the-counter, is determined using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable information. If all the relevant variables to establish the fair value of a financial instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2. If the variables to determine the price are not observable, the instrument will be valued in Level 3. Fair Value Level 3: If one or more relevant variables are not based on observable market information, the instrument is included in Level 3. Valuation Techniques The valuation techniques to determine the Fair Value includes: •Market prices or quotes for similar instruments. •Determination of estimated current value of the instruments. The valuation technique to determine the Level 2 fair value is based on information other than the quote price included in Level 1, which are directly observable for assets or liabilities, both directly (i.e., prices) and indirectly (i.e., deriving from prices). Financial instruments classified as Level 3 mainly include equity instruments for which the fair value was calculated with the assistance of independent appraisers using methods of future discounted cash flows involving a combined income and market approach. The valuation technique to determine the Level 3 fair value of financial instruments is based on the price drawn by the curve, which is a method that compares the spread between the sovereign bond curve and the average cut-off rates of primary issuances, representing the different segments, according to the different risk ratings. If there are no representative primary issuances throughout the month, the following variants will be used: •secondary market prices of instruments under the same conditions, which had quoted in the evaluation month; •bidding and/or secondary market prices of the previous month, which will be taken based on their representativeness; •spread calculated in the previous month, and it will be applied to the sovereign curve, in accordance with their reasonableness; •a specific margin is applied, defined according to historical yields of instruments under the same conditions, based on a substantiated justification. As stated above, the rates and spreads are determined to be used to discount the future cash flows and generate the instrument price. All the modifications to the valuation methods are previously discussed and approved by the Group's key personnel. The financial instruments of the group measured at fair value at the end of the period are detailed below:
