General Information
Additional Information Regarding the Notes
1. 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 the 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 manufacturer's 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 manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
For the purposes of this provision, (i) the expression "UK manufacturer" means the Dealer, (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.
2. The language set out under the heading "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:
"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)."
