Messrs

Securities and Exchange Commission

 

 

RE: “Asociación por la Defensa de Usuarios y Consumidores vs./ Banco BBVA Argentina S.A on Civil Procedure " (File 5582/2020), pending before the First Instance Court on Commercial Matters Nro 1 Secretariat Nro. 1 Autonomous City of Buenos Aires.” .

 

With due consideration:

 

We hereby address you in our capacity as proxies in order to inform that Banco BBVA Argentina S.A. (hereinafter “BBVA”) has been notified of a class action filed by the Asociación por la Defensa de Usuarios y Consumidores (Association for the Defense of Consumer and User Rights – ADUC).

 

he Association, acting on behalf of consumers, claims for an alleged new fee "Priority Pass Visit" applied to Credit Cards offered by the Bank, which would imply: (i) the unilateral modification of the agreement terms and conditions ; (ii) the abusive exercise of the activity by the bank. Moreover, it also requests that the amounts collected, interest and costs included, be terminated and refunded.

 

It is important to remark that this action is informed even though it is materially impossible to determine to date, whether the claim has a significant economic importance, since such claim is brought for an indeterminate amount, materially impossible to be determined with certainty today.

The Bank is analyzing the content of the lawsuit and defining the course of action, thus considering that even in the hypothetical case of an adverse decision regarding this dispute, such circumstance will not have a significant impact on its assets and activities

 

Yours faithfully,

 

 

BANCO BBVA ARGENTINA S.A.
