Question · Q2 2025
Pietro Nobili Ruz from BTG Pactual Chile questioned the bank's initiatives to increase the consumer portfolio's share of total loans back to historical levels, such as 17%, and the expected timeline for this change.
Answer
Andrés Sansone, Chief Economist, explained that the bank intends to grow its consumer lending book organically and cautiously, prioritizing prudent capital deployment over rapid expansion. He mentioned that while initiatives like securitization could help if regulations change, the shift in the portfolio mix will be a gradual process over time, not a rapid convergence within a specific timeframe like 24 months.
