This presentation contains forward-looking statements of expected future developments within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can
be identified by words such as: “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “goal”, “seek”, “believe”, “project”, “estimate”, “expect”, “strategy”,
“future”, “likely”, “may”, “should”, “will” and similar references to future periods. The forward-looking statements in this
presentation include the Bank’s financial position, asset quality and profitability, among others. These forward-looking statements
reflect the expectations of the Bank’s management and are based on currently available data; however, actual performance and
results are subject to future events and uncertainties, which could materially impact the Bank’s expectations. Among the factors
that can cause actual performance and results to differ materially are as follows: the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and
government actions intended to limit its spread; the anticipated changes in the Bank’s credit portfolio; the continuation of the
Bank’s preferred creditor status; the impact of increasing/decreasing interest rates and of the macroeconomic environment in the
Region on the Bank’s financial condition; the execution of the Bank’s strategies and initiatives, including its revenue diversification
strategy; the adequacy of the Bank’s allowance for expected credit losses; the need for additional allowance for expected credit
losses; the Bank’s ability to achieve future growth, to reduce its liquidity levels and increase its leverage; the Bank’s ability to
maintain its investment-grade credit ratings; the availability and mix of future sources of funding for the Bank’s lending operations;
potential trading losses; the possibility of fraud; and the adequacy of the Bank’s sources of liquidity to replace deposit withdrawals.
Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict
all of them. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the
date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new
information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Deposits

The combination of an increasing participation of deposits over total funding and new
debt capital markets transactions has further reinforced the resiliency of the Bank’s
funding base
Funding Structure
(USD millions, except for %) - EoP
✓ Deposits continued to grow (+9% YOY) and substantially increased
their share in the Bank’s total funding base
✓ Bladex’s new Yankee CD program has been consistently gaining
traction, reaching $ 452 million by the end of 2020
✓ Class A shareholders continued to support the Bank through their
deposit placements, which amounted to 50% of total deposits
✓ During 2020 the Bank further reinforced the stability of its funding
base through new medium term funding transactions
✓ Bond issuances, both public and private, and syndications attracted
investors from the US, Europe, Asia and Latin America
✓ The Bank reduced its reliance on funding from correspondent banks,
which by the end of 2020 amounted to less than 8% of total funding
✓ Nevertheless, Bladex maintains a fluent access to a wide network of
correspondent banks from the Americas, Europe and Asia

Stable QoQ trend in quarterly net income and returns. Annual results impacted by Bladex’s defensive
approach to favor liquidity over loan growth during most part of the year, compensated by decreased
expenses and reversals of credit reserves from loan collections and improved asset quality

the impact of lower market rates decreasing equity yield. Partly compensated by a positive trend in net

“We believe that our 40-year experience in the Region, including several negative credit cycles,
and our good understanding of the impacts and macroeconomic dynamics in every country, play
to our advantage. We are committed to continue to support our clients, for whom we have been
long-standing allies.”
-Jorge Salas, CEO
“I truly believe that 2020 was a very
good year for Bladex, given the
circumstances – taking advantage of
the levers of our business model to
protect the quality of our assets,
while continuing to soundly originate
business across the region, and
making the best of the liquidity and
rate environment on the liability side.
Although the pandemic continues to
pose significant challenges for the
Region, we stand well prepared to
navigate 2021.”
-Jorge Salas, CEO
