Banco Santander, S.A. and Companies composing Santander Group
Explanatory notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2016
1. Introduction, basis of presentation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and other information
a) | Introduction |
Banco Santander, S.A. (the Bank or Banco Santander) is a private-law entity subject to the rules and regulations applicable to banks operating in Spain. The Bylaws and other public information on the Bank can be consulted on the website of the Bank (www.santander.com) and at its registered office at Paseo de Pereda 9-12, Santander.
In addition to the operations carried on directly by it, the Bank is the head of a group of subsidiaries that engage in various business activities and which compose, together with it, Santander Group (the Group or Santander Group).
The Groups interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2016 (interim financial statements) were prepared and signed by the Groups directors at the board meeting held on 26 April 2016.
b) | Basis of presentation of the interim financial statements |
Under Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002, all companies governed by the law of an EU Member State and whose securities are admitted to trading on a regulated market of any Member State must prepare their consolidated financial statements for the years beginning on or after 1 January 2005 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) previously adopted by the European Union (EU-IFRSs). In order to adapt the accounting system of Spanish credit institutions to the new standards, the Bank of Spain issued Circular 4/2004, of 22 December, on Public and Confidential Financial Reporting Rules and Formats.
Banco Santander, S.A.s policy is to present its interim financial statements using the euro as its presentation currency, for their use in the various markets. These interim financial statements were prepared to comply with the requirements and specific provisions established in CVM Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil (CVM), as a result of the trading of the Banks marketable securities in Brazilian regulated markets, which requires the presentation of interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with financial reporting standard IAS 34 issued by the IASB, in Brazilian reais and in Brazilian Portuguese. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements may not be suitable for other purposes.

The Groups consolidated financial statements for 2015 prepared in accordance with the requirements and specific provisions of CVM Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil were prepared by the Bank (and approved at the board of directors meeting on 12 February 2016) in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union, taking into account Bank of Spain Circular 4/2004, and with the International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB-IFRSs), using the basis of consolidation, accounting policies and measurement bases described in Note 2 to the aforementioned consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, they presented fairly the Groups consolidated equity and consolidated financial position at 31 December 2015 and the consolidated results of its operations, the consolidated recognised income and expense, the changes in consolidated equity and the consolidated cash flows in 2015.
These interim financial statements were prepared and are presented in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, for the preparation of interim condensed financial statements and contain disclosures relating to the three-month period ended 31 March 2016.
In accordance with IAS 34, the interim financial report is intended only to provide an update on the content of the latest annual consolidated financial statements authorised for issue, focusing on new activities, events and circumstances occurring during the first quarter, and does not duplicate information previously reported in the latest approved annual consolidated financial statements. Consequently, these interim financial statements do not include all the information that would be required for a complete set of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRSs and, accordingly, for a proper comprehension of the information included in these interim financial statements, they should be read together with the Groups consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.
These interim financial statements are presented in euros (the Banks functional currency and the Groups presentation currency) and in Brazilian reais. The amounts presented in reais are included solely to comply with the requirements of CVM Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil and subsequent amendments thereto. The balances were translated to reais in accordance with the policies set forth in Note 2.a to the Groups consolidated financial statements for 2015, which were prepared to comply with the requirements and specific provisions of CVM Instruction no. 480/2009 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil. As indicated in the aforementioned Note 2.a, for practical reasons, balance sheet was translated at closing period exchange rate, the shareholders equity at historical exchange rate and income and expenses were translated at the average exchange rate for the period; the application of this exchange rate or that corresponding to the date of each transaction does not give rise to significant differences in the Groups interim financial statements.
The accounting policies and methods used in preparing these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the consolidated financial statements for 2015, taking into account the standards and interpretations that came into force in the first quarter of 2016. In this connection it should be noted that the following standards came into force in the first quarter of 2016:
- Disclosure Initiative (Amendments to IAS 1) (obligatory for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, early application permitted) - the main objective of these amendments is to improve financial statement presentation and disclosures. To this end, the amendments introduce certain qualifications relating to materiality, aggregation and disaggregation of items and the structure of the notes.
- Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 - Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation (obligatory for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, early application permitted) - these amendments clarify that when an item of property, plant and equipment or an intangible asset is accounted for using the revaluation model, the total gross carrying amount of the asset is adjusted in a manner that is consistent with the revaluation of the carrying amount of the asset, so that the accumulated depreciation or amortisation is equal to the difference between the gross carrying amount and the carrying amount of the asset after revaluation (after taking into account any impairment losses).
2
- | Amendments to IASs 16 and 41 - Bearer Plants (obligatory for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, early application permitted) - under these amendments, plants of this nature are now within the scope of IAS 16 and must be accounted for in the same way as property, plant and equipment rather than at their fair value. |
- | Amendments to IAS 27 - Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements (obligatory for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, early application permitted) - these amendments permit the use of the equity method as an option in the separate financial statements of an entity for accounting for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. |
- | Amendments to IFRS 11 - Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations (obligatory for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, early application permitted) these amendments specify how to account for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation in which the activity of the joint operation constitutes a business. |
- | Improvements to IFRSs, 2012-2014 cycle (obligatory for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, early application permitted) - these improvements introduce minor amendments to IFRS 5, IFRS 7, IAS 19 and IAS 34. |
The application of the aforementioned accounting standards did not have any material effects on the Groups interim financial statements.
c) | Use of estimates |
The consolidated results and the determination of consolidated equity are sensitive to the accounting policies, measurement bases and estimates used by the directors of the Bank in preparing the interim financial statements. The main accounting policies and measurement bases are set forth in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for 2015.
In the interim financial statements estimates were occasionally made by the senior management of the Bank and of the consolidated entities in order to quantify certain of the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and obligations reported herein. These estimates, which were made on the basis of the best information available, relate basically to the following:
1. | The income tax expense, which, in accordance with IAS 34, is recognised in interim periods based on the best estimate of the weighted average tax rate expected by the Group for the full financial year; |
2. | The impairment losses on certain assets - available-for-sale financial assets, loans and receivables, non-current assets held for sale, investments, tangible assets and intangible assets; |
3. | The assumptions used in the calculation of the post-employment benefit liabilities and commitments and other obligations; |
4. | The useful life of the tangible and intangible assets; |
5. | The measurement of goodwill arising on consolidation; |
6. | The calculation of provisions and the consideration of contingent liabilities; |
3
7. | The fair value of certain unquoted assets and liabilities; and |
8. | The recoverability of deferred tax assets. |
In the three-month period ended 31 March 2016 there were no significant changes in the estimates made at 2015 year-end other than those indicated in these interim financial statements.
d) | Contingent assets and liabilities |
Note 2.o to the Groups consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 includes information on the contingent assets and liabilities at that date. There were no significant changes in the Groups contingent assets and liabilities from 31 December 2015 to the date of formal preparation of these interim financial statements.
e) | Comparative information |
The information for 2015 contained in these interim financial statements is presented for comparison purposes only with the information relating to three-month period ended 31 March 2016.
In order to interpret the changes in the balances with respect to December 2015, it is necessary to take into consideration the exchange rate effect arising from the volume of foreign currency balances held by the Group in view of its geographic diversity (see Note 51.b to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015) and the impact of the appreciation/depreciation of the various currencies against the euro in the first three months of 2016, considering the exchange rates at the end of the three-month period, was as follows: Mexican peso (-3.45,%), US dollar (-4.37%), Brazilian real (+4.72%), pound sterling (-7.28%), Chilean peso (+1.42%) and Polish zloty (+0.15%).
f) | Seasonality of the Groups transactions |
In view of the business activities carried on by the Group entities, their transactions are not cyclical or seasonal in nature. Therefore, no specific disclosures are included in these explanatory notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2016.
g) | Materiality |
In determining the note disclosures to be made on the various items in the financial statements or other matters, the Group, in accordance with IAS 34, took into account their materiality in relation to the financial statements for the first quarter of 2016.
h) | Events after the reporting period |
It should be noted that from 1 April 2016 to the date on which the interim financial statements for the first quarter of 2016 were authorised for issue, the following significant event occurred at Santander Group:
- | Commercial transformation plan: During April the Group has started negotiations with the trade unions in order to drive a commercial transformation plan for Santander Spain and move ahead with the construction of a more simple Corporative Center that creates more value to the subsidiaries. On the signing date of these interim consolidated financial statements, Groups directors consider that it isnt possible to estimate financial impact figures of these measures because of it is in a preliminary realization phase and the characteristics that a process like this leads to. |
4
i) | Condensed consolidated statements of cash flows |
The following terms are used in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows with the meanings specified:
- | Cash flows: inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents, which are short-term, highly liquid investments that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, irrespective of the portfolio in which they are classified. |
The Group classifies as cash and cash equivalents the balances recognised under Cash and balances with central banks in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 includes detailed information on the procedures followed by the Group to analyse the potential impairment losses on the goodwill recognised with respect to its recoverable amount and to recognise the related impairment, as appropriate.
Accordingly, based on the analysis performed of the available information on the performance of the various cash-generating units which might evidence the existence of indications of impairment, the Groups directors concluded that in the first quarter of 2016 there were no impairment losses which required recognition.

Relevant information is set forth below in relation to each type of provision shown in the preceding table:
The provisions for taxes include provisions for tax-related proceedings.
The provisions for employment-related proceedings (Brazil) relate to claims filed by trade unions, associations, the prosecutors office and ex-employees claiming employment rights to which, in their view, they are entitled, particularly the payment of overtime and other employment rights, including litigation concerning retirement benefits. The number and nature of these proceedings, which are common for banks in Brazil, justify the classification of these provisions in a separate category or as a separate type from the rest. The Group calculates the provisions associated with these claims in accordance with past experience of payments made in relation to claims for similar items. When claims do not fall within these categories, a case-by-case assessment is performed and the amount of the provision is calculated in accordance with the status of each proceeding and the risk assessment carried out by the legal advisers. The average duration of the employment-related proceedings is approximately eight years.
The provisions for other legal proceedings include provisions for court, arbitration or administrative proceedings (other than those included in other categories or types of provisions disclosed separately) brought against Santander Group companies.
The provisions for customer remediation include the estimated cost of payments to remedy errors relating to the sale of certain products in the UK and Germany. To calculate the provision for customer remediation, the best estimate of the provision made by management is used, which is based on the estimated number of claims to be received and, of these, the number that will be accepted, as well as the estimated average payment per case.
The regulatory framework-related provisions include mainly the provisions for the extraordinary contribution to the Deposit Guarantee Fund in Spain and those relating to the FSCS and the bank levy in the UK.
The provisions for restructuring include only the direct costs arising from restructuring processes carried out by the various Group companies.
Qualitative information on the main litigation is provided in Note 10.d.
Our general policy is to record provisions for tax and legal proceedings in which we assess the chances of loss to be probable and we do not record provisions when the chances of loss are possible or remote. We determine the amounts to be provided for as our best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the corresponding claim based, among other factors, on a case-by-case analysis of the facts and the legal opinion of internal and external counsel or by considering the historical average amount of the loss incurred in claims of the same nature. The definitive date of the outflow of resources embodying economic benefits for the Group depends on each obligation. In certain cases, the obligations do not have a fixed settlement term and, in others, they depend on legal proceedings in progress.
34
The main changes in Provisions for taxes and other legal contingencies and Other provisions are disclosure in the chart above. With regard to Brazil, the main charges to profit or loss in the period ended 31 March 2016 relate to EUR 48 million (BRL 208 million) due to civil contingencies and EUR 80 million (BRL 344 million) arising from employment-related claims. This increase was partially offset by the use of available provisions, of which EUR 51 million (BRL 221 million) related to labour payments and EUR 75 million (BRL 322 million) to civil payments to restructuring provisions used. With regard to the United Kingdom, were recognised, EUR 14 million (BRL 60 million) of restructuring provisions. These increases were partially offset by the use of EUR 45 million (BRL 193 million) of customer remediation provisions, EUR 29 million (BRL 125 million) regulatory framework (Bank Levy and FSCS) and EUR 30 million (BRL 128) of restructuring.
d) | Litigation and other matters |
i. Tax-related litigation
At 31 March 2016, the main tax-related proceedings concerning the Group were as follows:
- | Legal actions filed by Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. and certain Group companies in Brazil challenging the increase in the rate of Brazilian social contribution tax on net income from 9% to 15% stipulated by Interim Measure 413/2008, ratified by Law 11,727/2008, a provision having been recognised for the amount of the estimated loss. |
- | Legal actions filed by certain Group companies in Brazil claiming their right to pay the Brazilian social contribution tax on net income at a rate of 8% and 10% from 1994 to 1998. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability. |
- | Legal actions filed by Banco Santander, S.A. (currently Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A.) and other Group entities claiming their right to pay the Brazilian PIS and COFINS social contributions only on the income from the provision of services. In the case of Banco Santander, S.A., the legal action was declared unwarranted and an appeal was filed at the Federal Regional Court. In September 2007 the Federal Regional Court found in favour of Banco Santander, S.A., but the Brazilian authorities appealed against the judgment at the Federal Supreme Court. On 23 April 2015, the Federal Supreme Court issued a decision granting leave for the extraordinary appeal filed by the Brazilian authorities with regard to the PIS contribution to proceed, and dismissing the extraordinary appeal lodged by the Brazilian Public Prosecutors Office in relation to the COFINS contribution. The Federal Supreme Court has not yet handed down its decision on the PIS contribution and, with regard to the COFINS contribution, on 28 May 2015, the Federal Supreme Court in plenary session unanimously rejected the extraordinary appeal filed by the Brazilian Public Prosecutors Office, and the petition for clarification (embargos de declaraçao) subsequently filed by the Brazilian Public Prosecutors Office, which on 3 September admitted that no further appeals may be filed. In the case of Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. (currently Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A.), in March 2007 the court found in its favour, but the Brazilian authorities appealed against the judgment at the Federal Regional Court, which handed down a decision partly upholding the appeal in September 2009. Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. filed an appeal at the Federal Supreme Court. Law 12,865/2013 established a programme of payments or deferrals of certain tax and social security debts, under which any entities that availed themselves of the programme and withdrew the legal actions brought by them were exempted from paying late-payment interest. In November 2013 Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. partially availed itself of this programme but only with respect to the legal actions brought by the former Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. in relation to the period from September 2006 to April 2009, and with respect to other minor actions brought by other entities in its Group. However, the legal actions brought by Banco Santander, S.A. and those of Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. relating to the periods prior to September 2006, for which a provision for the estimated loss was recognised, still subsist. |
35
- | Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. and other Group companies in Brazil have appealed against the assessments issued by the Brazilian tax authorities questioning the deduction of loan losses in their income tax returns (IRPJ and CSLL) on the ground that the relevant requirements under the applicable legislation were not met. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability. |
- | Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. and other Group companies in Brazil are involved in administrative and legal proceedings against several municipalities that demand payment of the Service Tax on certain items of income from transactions not classified as provisions of services. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability. |
- | In addition, Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. and other Group companies in Brazil are involved in administrative and legal proceedings against the tax authorities in connection with the taxation for social security purposes of certain items which are not considered to be employee remuneration. No provision was recognised in connection with the amount considered to be a contingent liability. |
- | In December 2008 the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. in relation to income tax (IRPJ and CSLL) for 2002 to 2004. The tax authorities took the view that Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. did not meet the necessary legal requirements to be able to deduct the goodwill arising on the acquisition of Banespa (currently Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A.). Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. filed an appeal against the infringement notice at Conselho Administrativo de Recursos Fiscais (CARF), which on 21 October 2011 unanimously decided to render the infringement notice null and void. The tax authorities have appealed against this decision at a higher administrative level. In June 2010 the Brazilian tax authorities issued infringement notices in relation to this same matter for 2005 to 2007. Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. filed an appeal against these procedures at CARF, which was partially upheld on 8 October 2013. This decision has been appealed at the higher instance of CARF (Tax Appeal High Chamber). In December 2013 the Brazilian tax authorities issued the infringement notice relating to 2008, the last year for amortisation of the goodwill. Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. appealed against this infringement notice and the court found in its favour. The Brazilian tax authorities appealed against this decision at CARF. Based on the advice of its external legal counsel and in view of the first decision by CARF, the Group considers that the stance taken by the Brazilian tax authorities is incorrect and that there are sound defence arguments to appeal against the infringement notices. Accordingly, the risk of incurring a loss is remote. Consequently, no provisions have been recognised in connection with these proceedings because this matter should not affect the consolidated financial statements. |
- | In May 2003 the Brazilian tax authorities issued separate infringement notices against Santander Distribuidora de Títulos e Valores Mobiliarios Ltda. (DTVM, currently Produban Serviços de Informática S.A.) and Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. (currently Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A.) in relation to the Provisional Tax on Financial Movements (CPMF) with respect to certain transactions carried out by DTVM in the management of its customers funds and for the clearing services provided by Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. to DTVM in 2000, 2001 and the first two months of 2002. The two entities appealed against the infringement notices at CARF, with DTVM obtaining a favourable decision and Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. an unfavourable decision. Both decisions were appealed by the losing parties at the High Chamber of CARF, and unfavourable decisions were obtained by Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. and DTVM on 12 and 19 June 2015, respectively. Both cases were appealed at court in a single proceeding and a provision was recognised for the estimated loss. |
- | In December 2010 the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Santander Seguros, S.A., as the successor by merger to ABN AMRO Brazil Dois Participações, S.A., in relation to income tax (IRPJ and CSLL) for 2005. The tax authorities questioned the tax treatment applied to a sale of shares of Real Seguros, S.A. made in that year. The bank filed an appeal for reconsideration against this infringement notice. As the former parent of Santander Seguros, S.A. (Brasil), Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. is liable in the event of any adverse outcome of this proceeding. No provision was recognised in connection with this proceeding as it was considered to be a contingent liability. |
36
- | In June 2013, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. as the party liable for tax on the capital gain allegedly obtained in Brazil by the entity not resident in Brazil, Sterrebeeck B.V., as a result of the incorporação de ações (merger of shares) transaction carried out in August 2008. As a result of the aforementioned transaction, Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. acquired all of the shares of Banco ABN AMRO Real, S.A. and ABN AMRO Brasil Dois Participações, S.A. through the delivery to these entities shareholders of newly issued shares of Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A., issued in a capital increase carried out for that purpose. The Brazilian tax authorities take the view that in the aforementioned transaction Sterrebeeck B.V. obtained income subject to tax in Brazil consisting of the difference between the issue value of the shares of Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. that were received and the acquisition cost of the shares delivered in the exchange. In December 2014 the Group appealed against the infringement notice at CARF after the appeal for reconsideration lodged at the Federal Tax Office was dismissed. Based on the advice of its external legal counsel, the Group considers that the stance taken by the Brazilian tax authorities is incorrect and that there are sound defence arguments to appeal against the infringement notice. Accordingly, the risk of incurring a loss is remote. Consequently, the Group has not recognised any provisions in connection with these proceedings because this matter should not affect the consolidated financial statements. |
- | In November 2014 the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infringement notice against Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. in relation to income tax (IRPJ and CSLL) for 2009 questioning the tax-deductibility of the amortisation of the goodwill of Banco ABN AMRO Real S.A. performed prior to the absorption of this bank by Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A., but accepting the amortisation performed after the merger. On the advice of its external legal counsel, Banco Santander (Brasil), S.A. lodged an appeal against this decision at the Federal Tax Office and obtained a favourable decision in July 2015, which will foreseeably be appealed at CARF by the Brazilian tax authorities. No provision was recognised in connection with this proceeding as it was considered to be a contingent liability. Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A. has also appealed against infringement notices issued by the tax authorities questioning the tax deductibility of the amortisation of the goodwill arising on the acquisition of Banco Comercial e de Investimento Sudameris S.A. No provision was recognised in connection with this matter as it was considered to be a contingent liability. |
- | Legal action brought by Sovereign Bancorp, Inc. (currently Santander Holdings USA, Inc.) claiming its right to take a foreign tax credit in connection with taxes paid outside the United States in fiscal years 2003 to 2005 in relation to financing transactions carried out with an international bank. Santander Holdings USA, Inc. considers that, in accordance with applicable tax legislation, it is entitled to recognise the aforementioned tax credits as well as the related issuance and financing costs. In addition, if the final outcome of this legal action is favourable to the interests of Santander Holdings USA, Inc., the amounts paid over by the entity in relation to this matter with respect to 2006 and 2007 would have to be refunded. In 2013 and in 2015 at second instance the US courts found against two taxpayers in cases with a similar structure. In the case of Santander Holdings USA, Inc., on 13 November 2015, the district judge found for Santander Holdings USA, Inc. in the final decision. On 13 January 2016, the judge ordered the amounts paid over with respect to 2003 to 2005 to be refunded to Santander Holdings USA, Inc. On 11 March 2016 the US government appealed the judges decision at the Court of Appeals. The estimated loss relating to this proceeding was provided for. |
- | Santander UK has proactively engaged with HM Revenue & Customs to resolve a number of outstanding legacy tax matters, all of which relate to periods prior to Santander UK plcs adoption of the Code of Practice on Taxation for Banks. However, litigation proceedings were commenced in relation to a small number of these issues, with respect to which the court of first instance found in favour of HM Revenue & Customs. Santander UK has decided not to appeal these rulings. The provision recognised for the amounts relating to these matters has been used in full. |
At the date of approval of these interim financial statements certain other less significant tax-related proceedings were also in progress.

ii. Non-tax-related proceedings
At 31 March 2016, the main non-tax-related proceedings concerning the Group were as follows:
- | Customer remediation: claims associated with the sale by Santander UK of certain financial products (principally payment protection insurance or PPI) to its customers. |
The remaining provision for PPI redress and related costs amounted to £436m, which included £450m of additional provisions made for Q415. Monthly utilisation, excluding pro-active customer contact, during the quarter was in line with the 2015 average.
Although we are comfortable with our current position, we will continue to review our provision levels in respect of recent claims experiences and the observed impact of the two-year deadline.
- | After the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court had rendered null and void the award handed down in the previous arbitration proceeding, on September 8, 2011, Banco Santander, S.A. filed a new request for arbitration with the Spanish Arbitration Court against Delforca 2008, Sociedad de Valores, S.A. (formerly Gaesco Bolsa Sociedad de Valores, S.A.), claiming 66 million that the latter owes it as a result of the declaration on January 4, 2008 of the early termination by the Bank of all the financial transactions agreed upon between the parties. |
On August 3, 2012, Delforca 2008, S.A. was declared to be in a position of voluntary insolvency by Barcelona Commercial Court no. 10, which had agreed as part of the insolvency proceeding to stay the arbitration proceeding and the effects of the arbitration agreement entered into by Banco Santander, S.A. and Delforca 2008, S.A. The Arbitration Court, in compliance with the decision of the Commercial Court, agreed on January 20, 2013 to stay the arbitration proceedings at the stage reached at that date until a decision could be reached in this respect in the insolvency proceeding.
In addition, as part of the insolvency proceeding of Delforca 2008, S.A., Banco Santander, S.A. notified its claim against the insolvent party with a view to having the claim recognized as a contingent ordinary claim without specified amount. However, the insolvency manager opted to exclude Banco Santander, S.A.s claim from the provisional list of creditors and, accordingly, Banco Santander, S.A. filed an ancillary claim, which was dismissed by a Court decision on February 17, 2015. This decision also declared that Banco Santander, S.A. had breached its contractual obligations under the framework financial transaction agreement it had entered into with Delforca 2008, S.A.
As part of the same insolvency proceeding, Delforca 2008, S.A. has filed another ancillary claim requesting the termination of the arbitration agreement included in the framework financial transactions agreement entered into by that party and Banco Santander, S.A. in 1998, as well as the termination of the obligation that allegedly binds the insolvent party to the High Council of Chambers of Commerce (Spanish Arbitration Court). This claim was upheld in full by the Court.
On December 30, 2013, Banco Santander filed a complaint requesting the termination of the insolvency proceeding of Delforca 2008, S.A. due to supervening disappearance of the alleged insolvency of the company. The complaint was dismissed by a decision handed down on June 30, 2014. A court order dated 25 May 2015 declared the end of the common phase of the insolvency proceeding and the opening of the arrangement phase. Banco Santander, S.A. lodged an appeal against the courts decisions 1) to stay the arbitration proceeding and the effects of the arbitral award, 2) to terminate the arbitration agreement 3) not to recognize the contingent claim, and to declare a breach by Banco Santander, S.A. and 4) not to conclude the proceeding due to the non-existence of insolvency.
38
On 23 June 2015, Delforca 2008, S.A. submitted an arrangement proposal entailing the payment in full of the ordinary and subordinate claims.
In its appeal documents Banco Santander, S.A. requested the stay of any proceedings that might be affected by the decision on the appeals filed, including the stay of the insolvency proceeding and the processing of the arrangement phase until a decision has been handed down on the appeals. By means of an interlocutory order made on 16 September 2015 the Court resolved to postpone the holding of the creditors meeting until the Provincial Appellate Court has handed down a decision on the requested stay of the proceedings.
In addition, in April 2009 Mobilaria Monesa, S.A. (parent of Delforca 2008, S.A.) filed a claim against Banco Santander, S.A. at Santander Court of First Instance no. 5, claiming damages which it says it incurred as a result of the (in its opinion) unwarranted claim filed by the Bank against its subsidiary, reproducing the same objections as Delforca 2008, S.A. This proceeding has currently been stayed on preliminary civil ruling grounds, against which Mobilaria Monesa, S.A. filed an appeal which was dismissed by the Cantabria Provincial Appellate Court in a judgment dated January 16, 2014.
Lastly, on April 11, 2012, Banco Santander, S.A. was notified of the claim filed by Delforca 2008, S.A., heard by Madrid Court of First Instance no. 21, in which it sought indemnification for the damage and losses it alleges it incurred due to the (in its opinion) unwarranted claim by the Bank. Delforca 2008, S.A. made the request in a counterclaim filed in the arbitration proceeding that concluded with the annulled award, putting the figure at up to EUR 218 million. The aforementioned Court has dismissed the motion for declinatory exception proposed by Banco Santander, S.A. as the matter has been referred for arbitration. This decision was upheld in an appeal at the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court in a judgment dated May 27, 2014. The Group considers that the risk of loss arising as a result of these matters is remote and, accordingly, it has not recognized any provisions in connection with these proceedings.
- | Former employees of Banco do Estado de São Paulo S.A., Santander Banespa, Cia. de Arrendamiento Mercantil: a claim was filed in 1998 by the association of retired Banespa employees (AFABESP) on behalf of its members, requesting the payment of a half-yearly bonus initially envisaged in the entitys Bylaws in the event that the entity obtained a profit and that the distribution of this profit were approved by the board of directors. The bonus was not paid in 1994 and 1995 since the bank did not make a profit and partial payments were made from 1996 to 2000, as agreed by the board of directors, and the relevant clause was eliminated in 2001. The Regional Employment Court ordered the bank to pay this half-yearly bonus in September 2005 and the bank filed an appeal against the decision at the High Employment Court (TST) and, subsequently, at the Federal Supreme Court (STF). The TST confirmed the judgment against the bank, whereas the STF rejected the extraordinary appeal filed by the bank in a decision adopted by only one of the Court members, thereby also upholding the order issued to the bank. This decision was appealed by the bank and the association. Only the appeal lodged by the bank has been given leave to proceed and will be decided upon by the STF in plenary session. |
39
- | Planos economicos: Like the rest of the banking system, Santander Brazil has been the subject of claims from customers, mostly depositors, and of class actions brought for a common reason, arising from a series of legislative changes relating to the calculation of inflation (planos economicos). The claimants considered that their vested rights had been impaired due to the immediate application of these adjustments. In April 2010, the High Court of Justice (STJ) set the limitation period for these class actions at five years, as claimed by the banks, rather than twenty years, as sought by the claimants, which will probably significantly reduce the number of actions brought and the amounts claimed in this connection. As regards the substance of the matter, the decisions issued to date have been adverse for the banks, although two proceedings have been brought at the STJ and the Supreme Federal Court (STF) with which the matter is expected to be definitively settled. In August 2010, STJ handed down a decision finding for the plaintiffs in terms of substance, but excluding one of the planos from the claim, thereby reducing the amount thereof, and once again confirming the five-year statute of limitations period. Shortly thereafter, the STF issued an injunctive relief order whereby the proceedings in progress were stayed until this court issues a final decision on the matter. |
- | Proceeding under Criminal Procedure Law (case no. 1043/2009) conducted at Madrid Court of First Instance no. 26, following a claim brought by Banco Occidental de Descuento, Banco Universal, C.A. against the Bank for USD 150 million in principal plus USD 4.7 million in interests, upon alleged termination of an escrow contract. |
The court upheld the claim but did not make a specific pronouncement on costs. A judgment handed down by the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court on October 9, 2012 upheld the appeal lodged by the Bank and dismissed the appeal lodged by Banco Occidental de Descuento, Banco Universal, C.A., dismissing the claim. The dismissal of the claim was confirmed in an ancillary order to the judgment dated December 28, 2012. An appeal was filed at the Supreme Court by Banco Occidental de Descuento against the Madrid Provincial Appellate Court decision. The appeal was dismissed in a Supreme Court judgment dated October 24, 2014. Banco Occidental de Descuento filed a motion for annulment against the aforementioned judgment which was dismissed in an order dated 2 December 2015. The complainant has stated that it will appeal. The Bank has not recognized any provisions in this connection.
- | On January 26, 2011, notice was served on the Bank of an ancillary insolvency claim to annul acts detrimental to the assets available to creditors as part of the voluntary insolvency proceedings of Mediterráneo Hispa Group, S.A. at Murcia Commercial Court no. 2. The aim of the principal action is to request annulment of the application of the proceeds obtained by the company undergoing insolvency from an asset sale and purchase transaction involving 32 million in principal and 2.7 million in interest. On November 24, 2011, the hearing was held with the examination of the proposed evidence. Upon completion of the hearing, it was resolved to conduct a final proceeding. The Court dismissed the claim in full in a judgment dated November 13, 2013. The judgment was confirmed at appeal by the Murcia Provincial Appellate Court in a judgment dated July 10, 2014. The insolvency managers have filed a cassation and extraordinary appeal against procedural infringements against the aforementioned judgment. |
- | The bankruptcy of various Lehman Group companies was made public on September 15, 2008. Various customers of Santander Group were affected by this situation since they had invested in securities issued by Lehman or in other products which had such assets as their underlying. |
At the date of this annual report, certain claims had been filed in relation to this matter. The Banks directors and its legal advisers consider that the various Lehman products were sold in accordance with the applicable legal regulations in force at the time of each sale or subscription and that the fact that the Group acted as intermediary would not give rise to any liability for it in relation to the insolvency of Lehman. Accordingly, the risk of loss is considered to be remote and, as a result, no provisions needed to be recognized in this connection.
40
- | The intervention, on the grounds of alleged fraud, of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC (Madoff Securities) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) took place in December 2008. The exposure of customers of the Group through the Optimal Strategic US Equity (Optimal Strategic) subfund was EUR 2,330 million, of which EUR 2,010 million related to institutional investors and international private banking customers, and the remaining EUR 320 million made up the investment portfolios of the Groups private banking customers in Spain, who were qualifying investors. |
At the date of this financial statements, certain claims had been filed in relation to this matter. The Group considers that it has at all times exercised due diligence and that these products have always been sold in a transparent way pursuant to applicable legislation and established procedures. Therefore, the risk of loss is considered to be remote or non-material.
- | At the end of the first quarter of 2013, news stories were published stating that the public sector was debating the validity of the interest rate swaps arranged between various financial institutions and public sector companies in Portugal, particularly in the public transport industry. |
The swaps under debate included swaps arranged by Banco Santander Totta, S.A. with the public companies Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. (MdL), Metro de Porto, S.A. (MdP), Sociedade de Transportes Colectivos do Porto, S.A. (STCP) and Companhia Carris de Ferro de Lisboa, S.A. (Carris). These swaps were arranged prior to 2008, i.e. before the start of the financial crisis, and had been executed without incident.
In view of this situation Banco Santander Totta, S.A. took the initiative to request a court judgment on the validity of the swaps in the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom to which the swaps are subject. The corresponding claims were filed in May 2013.
After the Bank had filed the claims, the four companies (MdL, MdP, STCP and Carris) notified Banco Santander Totta, S.A. that they were suspending payment of the amounts owed under the swaps until a final decision had been handed down in the UK jurisdiction in the proceedings. MdL, MdP and Carris suspended payment in September 2013 and STCP did the same in December 2013.
Consequently, Banco Santander Totta, S.A. extended each of the claims to include the unpaid amounts.
On November 29, 2013, the companies presented their defense in which they claimed that the swaps were null and void under Portuguese law and, accordingly, that they should be refunded the amounts paid. On February 14, 2014, Banco Santander Totta, S.A. answered the counterclaim, maintaining its arguments and rejecting the opposing arguments in its documents dated November 29, 2013.
On April 4, 2014, the companies issued their replies to the Banks documents. The preliminary hearing took place on May 16, 2014.
The case was heard from October 12 to December 10, 2015.
The judgment was handed down on March 4, 2016. The Court decided in favor of Banco Santander Totta, S.A. on all requests submitted by it and against the transport companies on all requests made by them. It considered all nine swap contracts to be valid and binding.
41
Banco Santander Totta, S.A. and its legal advisers consider that this judgment confirmed that the bank acted at all times in accordance with applicable legislation and under the terms of the swaps. As a result, the Group has not recognized any provisions in this connection.
- | Most of the German banking industry has been affected by two German Supreme Court decisions in 2014 in relation to handling fees in consumer loan agreements. |
In May 2014 the German Supreme Court held handling fees in loan agreements to be null and void. The Court subsequently handed down a ruling at the end of October 2014 extending from three to ten years the statute of limitation period on claims relating to old transactions. Therefore, any claims relating to handling fees paid between 2004 and 2011 became statute-barred in 2014. This situation gave rise to numerous claims at the end of 2014 which affected the income statements of banks in Germany.
Santander Consumer Bank AG stopped including these handling fees in agreements from January 1, 2013 and ceased charging these fees definitively at that date, i.e. before the Supreme Court handed down its judgment on the issue.
Provisions of approximately EUR 455 million were recognized in 2014 to cover the estimated cost of the claims. In order to calculate the provision, the claims already received, as well as an estimate of those that could be received in 2015 (the year in which the period for making claims ends as they become statute-barred) were taken into account. The provisions recognized to cover the claims received were used progressively throughout 2014 and 2015.
The Bank and the other Group companies are subject to claims and, therefore, are party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of their business (including those in connection with lending activities, relationships with employees and other commercial or tax matters).
In this context, it must be considered that the outcome of court proceedings is uncertain, particularly in the case of claims for indeterminate amounts, those based on legal issues for which there are no precedents, those that affect a large number of parties or those at a very preliminary stage.
With the information available to it, the Group considers that at March 31, 2016, it had reliably estimated the obligations associated with each proceeding and had recognized, where necessary, sufficient provisions to cover reasonably any liabilities that may arise as a result of these tax and legal situations. It also believes that any liability arising from such claims and proceedings will not have, overall, a material adverse effect on the Groups business, financial position or results of operations.

11. Equity
In the three-month periods ended 31 March 2016 and 2015 there were no quantitative or qualitative changes in the Groups equity other than those indicated in the consolidated statements of changes in total equity.
a) | Issued capital |
On 8 January 2015, the Group announced that its board of directors had resolved to increase capital through an accelerated bookbuilt offering with disapplication of pre-emption rights. The capital increase amounted to EUR 7,500 million (BRL 23,830 million), of which EUR 607 million (BRL 1,928 million) related to the par value of the 1,213,592,234 new shares issued and EUR 6,893 million (BRL 21,902 million) to the share premium.
On 29 January, 29 April and 4 November 2015, the bonus issues through which the Santander Dividendo Elección scrip dividend scheme is instrumented took place, whereby 262,578,993, 256,046,919 and 117,859,774 shares (1.90%; 1.82% and 0.82% of the share capital) were issued for an amount of EUR 131, 128 and 59 million (BRL 395, 426 and 240 million).
At 31 March 2016, the Banks share capital consisted of 14,434,492,579 shares (31 December 2015:14,060,585,886), with a total par value of EUR 7,217 million (BRL 18,016 million). ( 31 December 2015: EUR 7,030 million (BRL 17,350 million)).
b) | Valuation adjustments - Available-for-sale financial assets |

In the first quarter of 2016 the Group recognised EUR 8 million (BRL 35 million) in the income statement in relation to impairment of debt instruments.
c) | Valuation adjustments - Hedges of net investments in foreign operations and Exchange differences |
Valuation adjustments - Hedges of net investments in foreign operations includes the net amount of the changes in value of hedging instruments in hedges of net investments in foreign operations, in respect of the portion of these changes considered to be effective hedges.
Valuation adjustments - Exchange differences includes the net amount of exchange differences arising on non-monetary items whose fair value is adjusted against equity and the differences arising on the translation to euros of the balances of the consolidated entities whose functional currency is not the euro.
The net changes in both these items in the first quarter of 2016 recognised in the statement of recognised income and expense reflect the effect arising from the depreciation of foreign currencies, mainly the pound sterling and the US dollar, and the appreciation of the Brazilian real. Of the change in the balance in the first quarter, a loss of approximately EUR 750 million related to the measurement of goodwill using the period-end exchange rate.
d) | Valuation adjustments - Other valuation adjustments |
The changes in the balance of Valuation adjustments - Other valuation adjustments are shown in the condensed consolidated statement of recognised income and expense and include the actuarial gains and losses generated in the period and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), less the administrative expenses and taxes inherent to the plan, and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling.
The most significant changes in the first three months of 2016 related to:
- | Increase of EUR 187 million (BRL 803 million) in the cumulative actuarial losses relating to the Groups businesses in the UK, due to the change in the discount rate from 3.74% to 3.41% and a higher than expected return on plan assets. |
- | Changes as a result of changes in exchange rates, mainly in the UK (depreciation of the pound), and Brazil (appreciation of the real). |

12. Segment information
In 2015 the Group made changes to its criteria for the management and presentation of its financial information by segment:
Information related to the three-month period ended 31 March 2015 following has been re-elaborated under these criteria to be comparative.
For Group management purposes, the primary level of segmentation, by geographical area, comprises five segments: four operating areas plus Corporate Activities. The operating areas, which include all the business activities carried on therein by the Group, are Continental Europe, the United Kingdom, Latin America and the United States, based on the location of the Groups assets.
Following is the breakdown of revenue by the geographical segments used by the Group. For the purposes of the table below, revenue is deemed to be that recognised under Interest and similar income, Income from equity instruments, Fee and commission income, Gains/losses on financial assets and liabilities (net) and Other operating income in the accompanying consolidated income statements for the three-month periods ended 31 March 2016 and 2015.

(1) | In addition to the financial instruments measured at fair value shown in the foregoing table, at 31 March 2016, the Bank held equity instruments classified as available-for-sale financial assets and carried at cost amounting to EUR 1,759 million (BRL 7,242 million) (31 December 2015: EUR 1,790 million (BRL 7,718 million)). |
Financial instruments at fair value, determined on the basis of published price quotations in active markets (Level 1), include government debt securities, private-sector debt securities, derivatives traded in organised markets, securitised assets, shares, short positions and fixed-income securities issued.
In cases where price quotations cannot be observed, management makes its best estimate of the price that the market would set, using its own internal models. In most cases, these internal models use data based on observable market parameters as significant inputs (Level 2) and, in very specific cases, they use significant inputs not observable in market data (Level 3). In order to make these estimates, various techniques are employed, including the extrapolation of observable market data. The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is the transaction price, unless the fair value of the instrument can be obtained from other market transactions performed with the same or similar instruments or can be measured by using a valuation technique in which the variables used include only observable market data, mainly interest rates.
The Group did not make any material transfers of level 3 financial instruments in the first three months of 2016.
The Group has developed a formal process for the systematic valuation and management of financial instruments, which has been implemented worldwide across all the Groups units. The governance scheme for this process distributes responsibilities between two independent divisions: Treasury (development, marketing and daily management of financial products and market data) and Risk (on a periodic basis, validation of pricing models and market data, computation of risk metrics, new transaction approval policies, management of market risk and implementation of fair value adjustment policies). The approval of new products follows a sequence of steps (request, development, validation, integration in corporate systems and quality assurance) before the product is brought into production. This process ensures that pricing systems have been properly reviewed and are stable before they are used. Observable market data are including credit risk components.
The most important products and families of derivatives, and the related valuation techniques and inputs, by asset class, are detailed in the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2015.
The CVA and DVA recognised at 31 March 2016 amounted to EUR 868 million and EUR 518 million (BRL: 3,574 AN 2,134 million)), respectively.

(a) | Includes mainly short-term loans and reverse repurchase agreements with corporate customers (mainly brokerage and investment companies). |
(b) | Includes credit risk derivatives with a positive net fair value of EUR 3 million (BRL 12 million) recognised in the consolidated balance sheet. These assets and liabilities are measured using the Standard Gaussian Copula Model. |
(c) | Includes home mortgage loans to financial institutions in the UK (which are regulated and partly financed by the Government). The fair value of these loans was obtained using observable market variables, including current market transactions with similar amounts and collateral facilitated by the UK Housing Association. Since the Government is involved in these financial institutions, the credit risk spreads have remained stable and are homogeneous in this sector. The results arising from the valuation model are checked against current market transactions. |
56
The measurements obtained using the internal models might have been different had other methods or assumptions been used with respect to interest rate risk, to credit risk, market risk and foreign currency risk spreads, or to their related correlations and volatilities. Nevertheless, the Banks directors consider that the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities recognised in the consolidated balance sheet and the gains and losses arising from these financial instruments are reasonable.
Level 3 financial instruments
Set forth below are the Groups main financial instruments measured using unobservable market data that constitute significant inputs of the internal models (Level 3):
- | Instruments in Santander UKs portfolio (loans, debt instruments and derivatives) linked to the House Price Index (HPI). Even if the valuation techniques used for these instruments may be the same as those used to value similar products (present value in the case of loans and debt instruments, and the Black-Scholes model for derivatives), the main factors used in the valuation of these instruments are the HPI spot rate, the growth rate of that rate, its volatility and mortality rates, which are not always observable in the market and, accordingly, these instruments are considered illiquid. |
● | The HPI spot rate: for some instruments the NSA HPI spot rate, which is directly observable and published on a monthly basis, is used. For other instruments where regional HPI rates must be used (published quarterly), adjustments are made to reflect the different composition of the rates and adapt them to the regional composition of Santander UKs portfolio. |
● | HPI growth rate: this is not always directly observable in the market, especially for long maturities, and is estimated in accordance with existing quoted prices. To reflect the uncertainty implicit in these estimates, adjustments are made based on an analysis of the historical volatility of the HPI, incorporating reversion to the mean. |
● | HPI volatility: the long-term volatility is not directly observable in the market but is estimated on the basis of more short-term quoted prices and by making an adjustment to reflect the existing uncertainty, based on the standard deviation of historical volatility over various time periods. |
● | Mortality rates: these are based on published official tables and adjusted to reflect the composition of the customer portfolio for this type of product at Santander UK. |
- | Trading derivatives on baskets of shares. These are measured using advanced local and stochastic volatility models, using Monte Carlo simulations; the main unobservable input is the correlation between the prices of the shares in each basket in question. |
- | Callable interest rate trading derivatives (Bermudan-style options) where the main unobservable input is mean reversion of interest rates. |
The net gain recognised in the income statement for the first three months of 2016 arising from the aforementioned valuation models amounted to EUR 125 million (BRL: 536 million).
57
The table below shows the effect, at 31 March 2016, on the fair value of the main financial instruments classified as Level 3 of a reasonable change in the assumptions used in the valuation. This effect was determined by applying the probable valuation ranges of the main unobservable inputs detailed in the following table:

(*) | TAB: Tasa Activa Bancaria (Active Bank Rate). Average deposit interest rates (over 30, 90, 180 and 360 days) published by the Chilean Association of Banks and Financial Institutions (ABIF) in nominal currency (Chilean peso) and in real terms, adjusted for inflation (Unidad de Fomento - UF). |
(**) | There are national and regional HPI indices. The HPI spot value is the weighted average of the indices that correspond to the positions of each portfolio. The impact reported is a change of 10%. |
(***) | Theoretical average value of the parameter. The change arising on a favourable scenario is from 00001 to 0.03. An unfavourable scenario is not considered as there is insufficient margin for an adverse change from the current parameter level. The Group is also exposed, to a lesser extent, to this type of derivative in currencies other than the euro and, therefore, both the average and the range of the unobservable inputs are different. The impact in an unfavourable scenario would be losses of EUR 2.3 million (BRL 9.8 million). |
(a) | The exercise was conducted for the unobservable inputs described in the Main unobservable inputs column under probable scenarios. The range and weighted average value used are not shown because the aforementioned exercise was conducted jointly for various inputs or variants thereof (e.g. the TAB input comprises vector-time curves, for which there are also nominal yield curves and inflation-indexed yield curves), and it was not possible to break down the results separately by type of input. In the case of the TAB curve the gain or loss is reported for changes of +/-100 b.p. for the total sensitivity to this index in Chilean pesos and UFs. |
(b) | The Group calculates the potential impact on the measurement of each instrument on a joint basis, regardless of whether the individual value is positive (assets) or negative (liabilities), and discloses the joint effect associated with the related instruments classified on the asset side of the consolidated balance sheet. |
