The new products include a credit program called “cuota cómoda” (easy installment). As its name suggests, it focuses on the possibility of consolidating several financial commitments and allowing customers to adapt the amount and recurrence of the installments according to their different personal incomes.  Alejandro Santelises, Executive Vice president of Personal Businesses and Retail, explained the preparation for this service:  “At our bank we understand that some people can indeed feel overwhelmed by the variety of their financial responsibilities and we have created a new service that answers directly to that feeling”.

‘Cuota cómoda’ identifies which are the specific needs that best serve our clients’ and we have thus implemented an installment payment plan that changes with the income level of the population”, he stated.

He also said that this new service is available to the public after carrying out projections of the national economy and taking into account the trust and fidelity that the general public has maintained in the financial institution throughout its four decades of uninterrupted service.
