Banco Latinoamericano de Comercio Exterior, S. A. ("Bladex Head Office" and together with its subsidiaries "Bladex" or the "Bank"), headquartered in Panama City, Republic of Panama, is a specialized multinational bank established to support the financing of foreign trade and economic integration in Latin America and the Caribbean (the "Region"). The Bank was established pursuant to a May 1975 proposal presented to the Assembly of Governors of Central Banks in the Region, which recommended the creation of a multinational organization to increase the foreign trade financing capacity of the Region. The Bank was organized in 1977, incorporated in 1978 as a corporation pursuant to the laws of the Republic of Panama, and initiated operations on January 2, 1979. Under a contract law signed in 1978 between the Republic of Panama and Bladex, the Bank was granted certain privileges by the Republic of Panama, including an exemption from payment of income taxes in Panama.

Banks are also regulated by resolutions and agreements issued by this entity. The main aspects of this law and its regulations include: the authorization of banking licenses, minimum capital and liquidity requirements, consolidated supervision, procedures for management of credit, liquidity and market risks, measures to prevent money laundering, the financing of terrorism and related illicit activities, and procedures for banking intervention and liquidation, among others.

3. Financial risk (continued)
C. Market risk (continued)

Following is an analysis of the Bank's sensitivity to the most likely increase or decrease in market interest rates at the reporting date, assuming no asymmetrical movements in yield curves and a constant financial position:

Change in
interest rate
Effect on
profit or loss
Effect on
equity
September 30, 2021 +50 bps 2,511 16,064
-50 bps (2,014 ) 6,362
December 31, 2020 +50 bps 1,182 16,618
-50 bps (5,161 ) 107

Interest rate movements affect reported equity in the following ways:

- Retained earnings: increases or decreases in net interest income and in fair values of derivatives reported in profit or loss;
- Fair value reserve: increases or decreases in fair values of financial assets at FVOCI reported directly in equity; and
- Hedging reserve: increases or decreases in fair values of hedging instruments designated in qualifying cash flow hedge relationships.

This sensitivity provides a consideration of changes in interest rates, considering last period interest rate volatility.

(1) The fair value of the instrument includes interest receivable.

For financial instruments measured at fair value in level 3 category, the Bank uses the following methodologies and inputs using present value techniques.

Loans at fair value through profit or loss - Level 3

In 2020, the Bank realized the sale of the debt instrument measured at fair value through profit or loss for $5.8 million. As a result, the Bank recognized a loan and classified it at fair value through profit or loss with a carrying amount of $5.2 million and $4.9 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Inputs used in the fair value measurement are detailed as follows:

Observable inputsUnobservable inputs
- Forward interest rate referenced to 12M USD Libor - Discount rate or discount margin of floating rate bond "USD US composite B+" with credit risk similar to the instrument analyzed adjusted by the country risk premium.
Fair value measurement sensitivity to unobservable inputs - discount rate 2021 2020
A significant increase in volatility would result in a lower fair value 6.86% - 7.48% 3.128% to 8.89%

4. Fair value of financial instruments (continued)
C.Level 3 - Fair value measurement (continued)

Management used market data published in Bloomberg for the construction of the discount curve, which allows for a more accurate measurement of the instrument.

Although the Bank believes that its estimates of fair value are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions could lead to different fair value measurements. For fair value measurements in level 3, changing one or more of the assumptions used would have the following effects.

Loans at fair value through profit or loss
