2) Treasury:
•
The net interest margin
has been seen impacted by the markets’ high
volatility as a result of the uncertainty stemming from various geopolitical
risks, the evolution of the interest rates and some macroeconomic
indicators.
•
The delay in publishing the required regulation, such as the MiFID II or
Securities lending, has slowed down some initiatives.
•
The incorporation of new solutions into the services portfolio, such as the
Bonds platform and the FX Sharing Service, among others.
