General Information

Additional Information Regarding the Notes

1.         Use of Proceeds

            The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be
included in the ordinary capital resources of the Bank and, will not be
committed or earmarked for lending to, or financing of, any specific loans,
projects or programs.  The Bank, in partnership with its member countries,
works to reduce poverty and inequalities in Latin America and the Caribbean by
promoting economic and social development in a sustainable, climate friendly
way.

            The Bank's strategic priorities include social
inclusion and equality, productivity and innovation and economic integration
along with three cross-cutting issues: gender equality and diversity, climate
change and environmental sustainability, and institutional capacity and the
rule of law.  Each strategic priority of the Bank aligns to at least one of
the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs"), with all goals
covered within the Bank's institutional strategy, which may be adapted from
time to time should the United Nations SDGs definition evolve.

            All projects undertaken by the Bank go through the
Bank's rigorous sustainability framework. The framework tracks measurable
results, adherence to lending targets and the effectiveness of its
environmental and social safeguards. The Bank's administrative and operating
expenses are currently covered entirely by the Bank's various sources of
revenue, consisting primarily of net interest margin and investment income (as
more fully described in the Bank's Information Statement).

2.         Matters relating to UK MiFIR

The Bank does not fall under the scope of application of the UK MiFIR
regime.  Consequently, the Bank does not qualify as an "investment firm",
"manufacturer" or "distributor" for the purposes of UK MiFIR.

 

            UK MiFIR product governance / Retail investors,
professional investors and ECPs target market - Solely for the purposes of
each UK manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment
in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market
for the Notes is retail clients, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of
Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of
the EUWA, eligible counterparties, as defined in COBS, and professional
clients, as defined in UK MiFIR; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the
Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or
recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the UK
manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to the
UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules is responsible for undertaking its own
target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or
refining the UK manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining
appropriate distribution channels.

 

            For the purposes of this provision, (i) the expression
"UK manufacturers" means Merrill Lynch International and RBC Europe Limited
(ii) the expression "COBS" means the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business
Sourcebook, (iii) the expression "UK MiFIR" means Regulation (EU) No 600/2014
as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA, and (iv) the
expression "UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules" means the FCA Handbook Product
Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook.
