XP Inc. corporate reorganization On January 31, 2021, the Extraordinary General Stockholders’ Meeting (ESM) resolved on the partial spin-off of the investment in XP to be transferred to XPart S.A. XPart S.A.’s capital will be composed of the portion of the investment in XP Inc. and R$10 million in cash, was conditioned upon the stockholders obtaining the favorable opinion from the regulatory authority to complete the operation. On May 28, 2021, the favorable approval of the Federal Reserve Board (“FED”) was obtained and became effective as of May 31, 2021, therefore the legal and accounting segregation of the Company and of XPart will be carried out from this date. XP Inc’s capital stock held by XPart S.A. is now 40.52%, totaling R$9,371, as of December 31, 2020. XPart will have its incorporation documents duly filed with the Central Bank of Brazil and other proper registration bodies. As disclosed on the Material Fact of December 31, 2020, Itaú Unibanco’s stockholders will be entitled to equity interest in XPart in the same number, type and proportion of the shares they hold in the Company itself. The shares issued by Itaú Unibanco, as well as the American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) will continue to be traded including the right to receive securities issued by XPart until the cut-off date (date of ex-right), which will be set and informed to the market as soon as possible. XP has expressed its interest in merging XPart and, accordingly, XP and Itaúsa announced to the market on May 28, 2021, that they have reached a final understanding regarding the merger. If the merger of XPart into XP is carried out, which will be resolved at the General Stockholders’ Meetings of these companies at a date to be defined, which are expected by XP and Itaúsa to be held in the middle of the second half of 2021, the cut-off date mentioned above is planned to be after the closing of the trading session at the date of these General Stockholders’ Meetings. 3.4. Describe the policy on allocation of earnings for the past three years, indicating: The Board of Directors submits to the Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting, together with the financial statements, a proposal for the appropriation of net income for the year, and the main appropriations are: (i) 5% to the Legal Reserve, which should not exceed 20% of capital stock; (ii) distribution of dividends to stockholders (please see items “b” and “c” below); and (iii) setting up the Statutory Reserve, whose purpose is to guarantee funds for the payment of dividends, including as interest on capital, or advances, to maintain the flow of stockholders’ remuneration, and its balance may also be used: (i) in redemption, reimbursement or own share buyback operations, under current legislation; and (ii) in contribution to capital stock, including by means of new share bonus. The Statutory Reserve will be comprised of funds: a) equivalent to up to 100% of net income for the year, adjusted in accordance with Article 202 of Brazilian Corporate Law (Law No. 6,404/76) (please see item 3.9), always respecting the stockholders’ right to mandatory dividends, under the terms of these Bylaws and applicable legislation; b) equivalent to up to 100% of the paid-up portion of the Revaluation Reserves, recorded as retained earnings; c) equivalent to up to 100% of the amount of prior year adjustments, recorded as retained earnings; and d) arising from credits corresponding to dividend advances. The balance of this reserve, added to the Legal Reserve, may not exceed capital stock, in accordance with Article 199 of Brazilian Corporate Law No. 6,404/76 (please see item 3.9). 10

Rules on distribution of dividends Amount not below 35% of net income calculated for the year. c. Frequency of distribution of dividends Monthly – mandatory. Half-yearly – supplementary d. Any restrictions on the distribution of dividends imposed by legislation or special regulations applicable to the issuer, as well as agreements, court, administrative or arbitration decisions CMN Resolution No. 4,820/20, as amended by CMN Resolution No. 4,885/20, has restricted the payment of dividends and interest on capital in companies regulated by the Central Bank of Brazil. For further information, please see item 3.4, b. e. Whether the issuer has a formally approved policy on allocation of earnings, informing the approving body, date of approval and, if the issuer discloses the policy, where this document can be found on the Web Stockholder Remuneration Policy (dividends and interest on capital) approved by the Disclosure and Trading Committee at the meeting held on January 18, 2021, which may be accessed on the websites of CVM (http://www.cvm.gov.br/ > Companhias > Informações Periódicas e Eventuais de Companhias > Itaú Unibanco > Política de Dividendos) and of the Investor Relations (www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies). a) Rules on retention of earnings No changes were made to the rules on retention of earnings over the past three years. In accordance with Brazilian Corporate Law (please see item 3.9), at an Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting and based on a proposal by management, stockholders may resolve on retaining a portion of net income for the year previously approved as part of the capital budget. Additionally, minimum mandatory dividends may not be paid in any year in which management informs the Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting that this would be incompatible with the Issuer’s financial position. Although the Stockholder Remuneration Policy provides for the distribution of dividends and interest on capital in an amount not below 35% of adjusted net income, exceptionally in 2020 the Issuer paid out 25% of adjusted net income as dividends and interest on capital, as disclosed by the Material Fact of February 1, 2021. This was due, among other factors, to the regulatory restriction imposed by CMN Resolution No. 4,820/20, as amended by CMN Resolution No. 4,885/20, which has restricted the payment of dividends and interest on capital in companies regulated by the Central Bank of Brazil. For further information, please see item 3.4, b (final part). a.i.) Retained earnings amounts In 2020, no earnings were retained, and mandatory dividends of 25% of adjusted net income were paid, as provided for in the Issuer’s Bylaws. In 2019 and 2018, no earnings were retained, and dividends paid by the Issuer have been higher than minimum mandatory dividends (please see item 3.5 below). b) Rules on distribution of dividends Stockholders are entitled to receive as a mandatory dividend each year the minimum amount of twentyfive percent (25%) of the net income computed in the same year, adjusted by the addition or deduction of the amounts specified in letters “a” and “b” of item I of Article 202 of Brazilian Corporate Law (please see item 3.9), and in compliance with items II and III of the same legal provision. As resolved by the Board of Directors, interest on capital can be paid, including the interest on capital paid or credited in the amount of the mandatory dividend, as provided for in Article 9, paragraph 7 of Law No. 9,249/95 (please see item 3.9). Preferred shares entitle their holders to priority in the payment of an annual 11


LOGO

minimum dividend of R$0.022 per share, non-cumulative and adjusted for any split or reverse split. After the payment of the priority dividend to preferred stockholders, a dividend will be paid to the holders of common shares at R$0.022 per share, non-cumulative and adjusted for any split or reverse split. Capital Management and Distribution of Profits In order to ensure capital strength and availability to support our business growth, regulatory capital levels were kept above those required by the Central Bank of Brazil, as evidenced by the Common Equity Tier I, Tier I, and BIS ratios. The total amount to be distributed each year will be set by the Board of Directors, considering, among others: 1. the Company’s capitalization level, according to the rules issued by the Central Bank of Brazil; 2. the minimum level established by the Board of Directors of 13.5% for Tier 1 Capital; 3. profitability in the year; 4. the expectations of capital use based on expected business growth, share buyback programs, mergers and acquisitions, and regulatory changes that may change capital requirement; and 5. changes in tax legislation. Therefore, the percentage to be distributed may change every year based on the profitability and capital demands of the Company, always considering the minimum distribution set forth in the Bylaws. Limitation imposed by the Central Bank of Brazil on payment of dividends by financial institutions Resolution No. 4,820 of the Central Bank of Brazil limits the financial institutions to distribute no more than the minimum dividend provided for in their Bylaws – until December 31, 2020. For Itaú Unibanco Holding, the percentage set forth in the Bylaws is 25% of net income. The purpose of this Resolution is ensuring that banks use their capital to finance individuals and companies to get through the pandemic crisis. Accordingly, aimed at addressing indebtedness in a structured way and helping clients to keep afloat, initiatives have been set to allow extending grace periods, terms and providing better interest rate conditions for individuals and very small and small business clients. In March 2020, the Programa 60+ was set up, which, among other measures, allowed a 60-day grace period for contracts not in default. In mid-April, the Travessia (Crossing) Program was set up allowing the extension of grace periods to between 120 and 180 days and the terms of operations to between 5 and 6 years, respectively, for individuals and very small and small companies, in addition to providing lower interest rates. Under the implementation of the liquidity requirements set forth by Basel III standards, on March 1, 2013, CMN issued Resolution No. 4,193 (please see item 3.9), establishing that dividends may not be paid if a financial institution fails to comply with the additional capital requirements, required in their entirety as from 2019. This restriction on dividend payment will be progressively applied, according to the extent of nonconformity with the additional capital requirements. • Should a financial institution’s additional capital be lower than 25% of that established by CMN for that year, no dividends or interest on capital will be distributed accordingly. • If the additional capital is between 25% and 50% of the required amount, 80% of the intended dividends and interest on capital will not be distributed. • If the additional capital is between 50% and 75% of the required amount, 60% of the intended dividends and interest on capital will not be distributed. • If the additional capital is between 75% and 100% of the required amount, 40% of the intended dividends and interest on capital will not be distributed. At the end of December 2020, the BIS ratio reached 14.5%, of which: (i) 13.2% related to Tier I Capital, composed of the sum of Core Capital and Additional Capital; and (ii) the amounts of Tier I and Tier II Capital totaled R$137.1 billion and R$14.1 billion, respectively on December 31, 2020. These indicators provide evidence of our effective capacity of absorbing unexpected losses. 12

Temporary suspension of distribution of dividends and increase in compensation of officers and board members In accordance with the provisions of CMN Resolution No. 4,820/20, as amended by CMN Resolution No. 4,885/20, Brazilian financial institutions may not: I—remunerate capital, including by means of early payment, in excess of the greater of: a) amount equivalent to thirty percent (30%) of adjusted net income in accordance with item I of Article 202 of Brazilian Corporate Law No. 6,404 of December 15, 1976; and b) amount equivalent to: 1. minimum mandatory dividend as set forth in Article 202 of Brazilian Corporate Law, including as interest on capital, for institutions incorporated as publicly-held companies; or 2. distribution of minimum profit provided for in Articles of Association for institutions incorporated as limited-liability companies. II—increase the fixed or variable compensation of officers, management members and members of the board of directors and fiscal council. c) Frequency of distribution of dividends Since July 1980, the Issuer has been remunerating its stockholders with monthly additional payments. These additional payments have historically been made twice a year and are equally distributed to common and preferred stockholders. Over the past three years, dividends were paid on a monthly basis, as established by our Stockholder Remuneration Policy, approved by the Board of Directors. Such Policy establishes the monthly payment of R$0.015 per share, as a mandatory dividend advance. The date used as reference to determine which stockholders are entitled to receive the monthly dividends is determined based on the stockholding position recorded on the last day of the previous month, and dividends are paid on the first business day of the subsequent month. The Extraordinary General Stockholders’ Meeting of July 27, 2018 approved the Company’s stock split at 50%. Monthly dividends were kept at R$0.015 per share, so that the total amounts monthly paid by the Company to stockholders were added by fifty percent (50%), after the inclusion of the split shares in the stockholding position. Additionally, over the past three years, supplementary dividends were also paid (half yearly), for which the Board of Directors determines the base date for the stockholding position and payment date. Regarding these half-yearly payments, management verifies the existing profit, determines the amount of dividends that should be distributed as mandatory (please see item “a” above), calculates the monthly amount already declared and, finally, determines the outstanding balance payable of the minimum mandatory dividend. This amount is declared as a dividend “additional” to those paid monthly. The Stockholders Remuneration Policy is available on our Investor Relations website www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Policies. For the history of payments by the Issuer, please access the Investor Relations website www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Our Shares > Shares and Dividends & Interest on Capital. 13

ITEM 4. RISK FACTORS 4.1. Describe risk factors that may influence an investment decision, particularly those related to: This section addresses the risks we consider material to our business and an investment in our securities. Should any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial condition, as well as the value of any investments made in our securities, will be adversely affected. Accordingly, investors should carefully assess the risk factors described below and the information disclosed in this annual report before making an investment decision. The risks described below are those that we currently believe may adversely affect us. Other risks that we currently deem immaterial or that are currently not known to us may also adversely affect us. a) The Issuer Credit risk factor We may incur losses associated with counterparty exposure risks, including the Brazilian federal government. We routinely conduct transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, investment banks, mutual and hedge funds and other institutional clients. Like most Brazilian banks, we also invest in debt securities issued by the Brazilian government. As of December 31, 2020, approximately 20.9% of all our assets and 67.5% of our securities portfolio were comprised of these public debt securities. We may incur losses if any of our counterparties fail to meet their contractual obligations, due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons that are exclusively attributable to our counterparties. As an example, an eventual failure by the Brazilian government to make timely payments under the terms of these securities, or a significant decrease in their market value could negatively affect our results in two ways: directly, through portfolio losses, and indirectly, through instabilities that a default in public debt could cause to the banking system as a whole, particularly since commercial banks’ exposure to government debt is high in countries in which we operate. This counterparty risk may also arise from our entering into reinsurance agreements or credit agreements pursuant to which counterparties have obligations to make payments to us and are unable to do so, or from our carrying out transactions in the foreign currency market (or other markets) that fail to be settled at the specified time due to non-delivery by the counterparty, clearing house or other financial intermediary. Their failure to meet their contractual obligations may adversely affect our financial performance. A downgrade of our ratings may adversely affect our funding cost, our access to capital and debt markets, our liquidity and, as a result, our competitive position. Credit ratings represent the opinions of independent rating agencies regarding our ability to repay our indebtedness and affect the cost and other terms upon which we are able to obtain funding. Each of the rating agencies reviews its ratings and rating methodologies on a periodic basis and may decide on a grade change at any time, based on factors that affect our financial strength, such as liquidity, capitalization, asset quality and profitability or due to a downgrade of the Brazilian sovereign rating. Under the criteria utilized by the rating agencies, ratings assigned to Brazilian financial institutions, including Itaú Unibanco are constrained by the grades assigned to the Brazilian sovereign. Events that are not subject to our control, such as economic or political crises, may lead to a downgrade of the Brazilian sovereign rating and a corresponding downgrade of the ratings assigned to Itaú Unibanco. Credit ratings are essential to our capability to raise capital and funding through the issuance of debt and to the cost of such financing. A downgrade or a potential downgrade in our credit ratings could have an adverse impact on our operations, income and risk weighting. This may affect net earnings, capital requirements and return on capital levels, causing a negative impact on our competitive position. Additionally, if our credit ratings were to be downgraded, rating trigger clauses that may be part of our financing agreements with other institutions could result in an immediate need to deliver additional collateral to counterparties or taking other actions under some of our derivative contracts, adversely affecting our interest margins and results of operations. Thus, a failure to maintain favorable ratings and outlooks can affect the cost and availability of our financing through the capital markets and other sources of financing, affecting our interest margins and capacity to operate. 17

Changes or uncertainty in base interest rates could adversely affect us. A significant portion of our business is conducted in Brazil, where the Central Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee (Comitê de Política Monetária), or the COPOM, establishes the target base interest rate for the Brazilian economy (the “SELIC Rate”), and uses changes in this rate as an instrument of monetary policy. The SELIC Rate is the benchmark interest rate payable to holders of certain securities issued by the Brazilian government and traded on the SELIC System operated by the Central Bank. In recent years, the SELIC Rate, has fluctuated significantly reflecting the corresponding volatility in the macroeconomic scenario and inflationary environment. During 2015 and 2016, as a result of increased prospects of inflation and macroeconomic instability, the COPOM increased the SELIC Rate, reaching 14.25% and 13.75% as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016, respectively. In the following years, as a result of the widespread decline in inflation, due to the high level of idle capacity in the Brazilian economy and anchored inflation expectations, the Central Bank started a monetary easing cycle and the COPOM has reduced the SELIC Rate. As of December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2018, the SELIC Rate was 7.00% and 6.50%, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2020, the SELIC Rate was 4.5% and 2.0%, respectively, reflecting historical lows. As of the date of the filing of this Reference Form, the SELIC rate was 3.5%. We may face challenges associated with IBOR transition A significant portion of our income, expenses and liabilities is directly tied to interest rates. Therefore, our results of operations and financial condition are significantly affected by inflation, interest rate fluctuations and related government monetary policies. In addition, various interbank offered rates which are deemed to be “benchmarks” (the “IBORs”, including LIBOR and EURIBOR) are the subject of recent international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. Some of these reforms are already effective while others are still to be implemented, including the majority of the provisions of the EU Benchmark Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/1011) as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (together, the “Benchmarks Regulations”). In particular, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced that the FCA will no longer oblige banks to contribute to the calculation of LIBOR after the end of 2021. In addition, on March 5, 2021, the FCA confirmed that all LIBOR settings will either cease to be provided by any administrator or no longer be representative immediately after December 31, 2021, in the case of all sterling, euro, Swiss franc and Japanese yen settings, and the 1-week and 2-month US dollar settings and immediately after June 30, 2023, in the case of the remaining US dollar settings. These announcements indicate that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis (or at all) cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. The cessation of LIBOR for various currencies at the end of 2021 (and in 2023 for certain tenors of U.S. Dollar LIBOR) will also result in replacement rates being used more widely, including in the instruments documenting certain of our financial obligations. For example, in the U.S., a group convened by the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, called the Alternative Reference Rate Committee (“ARRC”) and comprised of a diverse set of private sector entities, has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (or “SOFR”) as its preferred alternative rate for the USD LIBOR and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York has begun publishing SOFR daily. Many banks in the U.S. have begun entering into transactions where interest is determined based on SOFR or plan to do so during the course of 2021, as recommended by ARRC and certain regulators. Additionally, many financial contracts, including some which govern our financial obligations, include replacement alternatives for LIBOR upon the cessation of LIBOR. It is possible that some U.S. lenders will elect to use alternative rates other than SOFR. Central banks in several other jurisdictions have also announced plans for publishing alternative reference rates for other currencies. In addition, on November 29, 2017, the Bank of England and the FCA announced that, as of January 2018, its working group on Sterling risk free rates has been mandated with implementing a broad-based transition to the Sterling Overnight Index Average (“SONIA”) over the next four years across sterling bond, loan and derivative markets so that SONIA is established as the primary sterling interest rate benchmark by the end of 2021. On September 21, 2017, the European Central Bank announced that it would be part of a new working group tasked with the identification and adoption of a “risk free overnight rate” which can serve as a basis for an alternative to current benchmarks used in a variety of financial instruments and contracts in the euro area. On September 13, 2018, the working group on Euro risk-free rates recommended the new Euro short-term rate (“€STR”) as the new risk-free rate for the euro area. The €STR was published for the first time on October 2, 2019. Although EURIBOR has been reformed in order to comply with the terms of the Benchmark Regulation, it remains uncertain as to how long it will continue in its current form, or whether it will be further reformed or replaced with €STR or an alternative benchmark. This and other reforms may cause IBORs to 18

perform differently than in the past, or to disappear entirely, or have other consequences, which cannot be fully anticipated, which introduce a number of risks for us including legal risks arising from potential changes required to documentation for new and existing transactions, financial risks arising from any changes in the valuation of financial instruments linked to benchmark rates and hedging mismatch, pricing risks arising from how changes to benchmark indices could impact pricing mechanisms on some instruments, operational risks arising from the potential requirement to adapt information technology systems, trade reporting infrastructure and operational processes, and commercial risks arising from the potential impact of communication with customers and engagement during the transition period. Accordingly, the implementation of alternative benchmark rates may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. Operational risk factor We face risks relating to our operations. Operational risks, which may arise from errors in the performance of our processes, the conduct of our employees, instability, malfunction or outage of our IT system and infrastructure, or loss of business continuity, or comparable issues with respect to our vendors, may disrupt our businesses and lead to material losses. We face operational risk arising from errors, accidental or premeditated, made in the execution, confirmation or settlement of transactions or from transactions not being properly recorded, evaluated or accounted for. The occurrence of any of these risks may adversely affect our business, financial results and reputations. We are exposed to failures, deficiency or inadequacy of our internal processes, human error or misconduct and cyberattacks. Additionally, we rely on third-party services. All these factors may adversely affect us. Due to the high volume of daily processing, we are dependent on technology and management of information, which exposes us to eventual unavailability of systems and infrastructure such as power outages, interruption of telecommunication services, and generalized system failures, as well as internal and external events that may affect third parties with which we do business or that are crucial to our business activities (including stock exchanges, clearing houses, financial dealers or service providers) and events resulting from wider political or social issues, such as cyberattacks or unauthorized disclosures of personal information in our possession. We manage and store certain proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data relating to our clients and to our operations. We may be subject to breaches of the information technology systems we use for these purposes, as well as the theft of technology and intellectual property. Additionally, we operate in many geographic locations and are frequently subject to the occurrence of events outside of our control. Despite the contingency plans we have in place, our ability to conduct business in any of these locations may be adversely impacted by a disruption to the infrastructure that supports our business. We are strongly dependent on technology and thus are vulnerable to viruses, worms and other malicious software, including “bugs” and other problems that could unexpectedly interfere with the operation of our systems and result in data leakage. Operating failures, including those that result from human error or fraud, not only increase our costs and cause losses, but may also give rise to conflicts with our clients, lawsuits, regulatory fines, sanctions, interventions, reimbursements and other indemnity costs. Ethical misconduct and noncompliance – ethical misconduct or breaches of applicable laws by our businesses or our employees could be damaging to our reputation too, and could result in litigation, regulatory action and penalties. All of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation and results of operations. Operational risk also includes legal risk associated with inadequacy or deficiency in contracts signed by us, as well as penalties due to noncompliance with laws and punitive damages to third parties arising from the activities undertaken by us. Additionally, we have essential other services for the proper functioning of our business and technology infrastructure, such as call centers, networks, internet and systems, among others, provided by external or outsourced companies. Impacts on the provision of these services, caused by these companies due to the lack of supply or the poor quality of the contracted services, can affect the conduct of our business as well as our clients. We also rely in certain limited capacities on third-party data management providers whose possible security problems and security vulnerabilities may have similar effects on us. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have rapidly increased the number of employees working remotely. This may cause increases in the unavailability of our systems and infrastructure, interruption of telecommunication services, generalized system failures and heightened vulnerability to cyberattacks. Accordingly, our ability to conduct our business may be adversely impacted. 19

Failure to protect personal information could adversely affect us. We manage and hold confidential personal information of clients in the ordinary course of our business. Although we have procedures and controls to safeguard personal information in our possession, unauthorized disclosures or security breaches could subject us to legal action and administrative sanctions as well as damage that could materially and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and prospects. Further, our business is exposed to risk from potential non-compliance with policies, employee misconduct or negligence and fraud, which could result in regulatory sanctions and reputational or financial harm. In addition, we may be required to report events related to cybersecurity issues, events where client information may be compromised, unauthorized access and other security breaches, to the relevant regulatory authority. Any material disruption or slowdown of our systems could cause information, including data related to client requests, to be lost or to be delivered to our clients with delays or errors, which could reduce demand for our services and products and could materially and adversely affect us. Failure to adequately protect ourselves against risks relating to cybersecurity could materially and adversely affect us. We face various cybersecurity risks, including but not limited to: penetration of our information technology systems and platforms, by ill-intentioned third parties, infiltration of malware (such as computer viruses) into our systems, contamination (whether intentional or accidental) of our networks and systems by third parties with whom we exchange data, unauthorized access to confidential client and/or proprietary data by persons inside or outside of our organization, and cyberattacks causing systems degradation or service unavailability that may result in business losses. Although we have procedures and controls to safeguard our information technology systems and platforms, we are subject to cybersecurity risks. We have seen in recent years computer systems of companies and organizations being targeted, not only by cyber criminals, but also by activists and rogue states. We define cyberattack as any type of offensive maneuver employed by states, nations, individuals, groups or organizations that targets computer information systems, infrastructure, networks and/or personal devices, using varied means, such as denial of service, malware and phishing, for the purpose of stealing, altering or destroying a specific target by hacking into a technological susceptible system. Cyberattacks can range from the installation of viruses on a personal computer to attempts to destroy the infrastructure of entire nations. We are exposed to this risk over the entire lifecycle of information, from the moment it is collected to its processing, transmission, storage, analysis and destruction. A successful cyberattack may result in unavailability of our services, leak or compromise of the integrity of information and could give rise to the loss of significant amounts of client data and other sensitive information, as well as significant levels of liquid assets (including cash) as well as damage to our image, directly affecting our customers and partners. In addition, cyberattacks could give rise to the disabling of our information technology systems used to service our clients. As attempted attacks continue to evolve in scope and sophistication, we may incur significant costs in our attempt to modify or enhance our protective measures against such attacks, or to investigate or remediate any vulnerability or resulting breach. If we fail to effectively manage our cybersecurity risk, for example, by failing to update our systems and processes in response to new threats, this could harm our reputation and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and prospects through the payment of client compensation, regulatory penalties and fines and/or through the loss of assets. In addition, we may also be subject to cyber-attacks against critical infrastructures of Brazil or of the other countries where we operate. Our information technology systems are dependent on such critical infrastructure and any cyber-attack against such critical infrastructure could negatively affect our ability to service our clients. In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a significant increase in employees working from home, which led to a change in the tactics used by cyber criminals to perform attacks, mostly exploiting the fears of people to try to steal data or compromise the technological environment. Due to the new profile of risks, we reinforced our measures to block fraudulent e-mails and to takedown malicious websites, ensuring that workstations are protected by antimalware and only have connectivity to our VPN (Virtual Private Network). We also help third parties to adapt their infrastructure to work securely from home. There are also requirements related to the information security process, such as the Brazilian General Personal Data Protect Act (LGPD), CVM Instruction No. 612/2019 and CMN Resolution No. 4,658/2018, that we agree on their importance to keep cyber risks mitigated and the related controls are continuous monitored to ensure effectiveness as any failure to comply with these regulatory requirements could adversely affect us. 20

The loss of senior management, or our ability to attract and maintain key personnel, could have a material adverse effect on us. Our ability to maintain our competitive position and implement our strategy depends on our senior management. The loss of some of the members of our senior management, or our inability to maintain and attract additional personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our operations and our ability to implement our strategy. Our performance and success are largely dependent on the talents and efforts of highly skilled individuals. Talent attraction and retention is one of the key pillars for supporting the results of our organization, which is focused on client satisfaction and sustainable performance. Our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain the right number of appropriately qualified people is critical to our performance and ability to thrive globally. Concurrently, we face the challenge to provide a new experience to employees, so that we are able to attract and retain highly-qualified professionals who value environments offering equal opportunities and who wish to build up their careers in dynamic, cooperative workplaces, which encourage diversity and meritocracy and are up to date with new work models. Also, our current business scenario demands not only a careful look at traditional careers, but also at new career paths that are indispensable for our future. Our performance could be adversely affected if we are unable to attract, retain and motivate key talent. As we are highly dependent on the technical skills of our personnel, including successors to crucial leadership positions, as well as their relationships with clients, the loss of key components of our workforce (particularly to emerging competitors, such as start-ups and fintechs), could make it difficult to compete, grow and manage the business. A loss of such expertise could adversely affect our financial performance, future prospects and competitive position. Misconduct of our employees or representatives may adversely affect us. Our business is based on institutional principles (“Our Way”), among which are “it’s only good for us if it’s good for the client” and “ethics are non-negotiable”. However, part of the customer relationship depends on direct interaction with our employees or representatives. We cannot assure you that our individual employees will always comply with our internal policies and that our internal procedures will effectively monitor and identify misbehavior. Deviations in behavior such as inappropriate sales practices and improper use of information may occur. These risks can give rise to customer attrition, need of compensation or reimbursements, litigation and, according to its extension, may expose the institution to reputation risk, financial and credibility losses with the market and regulators. We may not be able to prevent our officers, employees or third parties acting on our behalf from engaging in situations that qualify as corruption in Brazil or in any other jurisdiction, which could expose us to administrative and judicial sanctions, as well as have an adverse effect to us. We are subject to Brazilian anticorruption legislation, and similarly-focused legislation of the other countries where we have branches and operations, as well as other anticorruption laws and regulatory regimes with a transnational scope. These laws require the adoption of integrity procedures to mitigate the risk that any person acting on our behalf may offer an improper advantage to a public agent in order to obtain benefits of any kind. Applicable transnational legislation, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and U.K. Bribery Act, as well as the applicable Brazilian legislation (mainly Brazilian Law No. 12,846/2013 – Lei Anticorrupção Brasileira), require us, among other things, the maintenance of policies and procedures aimed at preventing any illegal or improper activities related to corruption involving government entities and officials in order to secure any business advantage, and require us to maintain accurate books and a system of internal controls to ensure the accuracy of our books and prevent illegal activities. We have policies and procedures designed to prevent bribery and other corrupt practices. Unauthorized actions by our officers, employees or third parties acting on our behalf in breach of our internal policies may qualify as corruption in Brazil or in other jurisdiction and we could be exposed to administrative and judicial sanctions, accounting errors or adjustments, monetary losses and reputational damages or other adverse effects. The perception or allegations that we, our employees, our affiliates or other persons or entities associated with us have engaged in any such improper conduct, even if unsubstantiated, may cause significant reputational harm and other adverse effects. We operate in international markets which subject us to risks associated with the legislative, judicial, accounting, regulatory, political and economic risks and conditions specific to such markets, which could adversely affect us or our foreign units. We operate in various jurisdictions outside of Brazil through branches, subsidiaries and affiliates, and we expect to continue to expand our international presence. We face, and expect to continue to face, additional risks in the case of our existing and future international operations, including: 21


LOGO

political instability, adverse changes in diplomatic relations and unfavorable economic and business conditions in the markets in which we currently have international operations or into which we may expand; more restrictive or inconsistent government regulation of financial services, which could result in increased compliance costs and/or otherwise restrict the manner in which we provide our services; and difficulties in managing operations and adapting to cultural differences, including issues associated with (i) business practices and customs that are common in certain foreign countries but might be prohibited by Brazilian law and our internal policies and procedures and (ii) management and operational systems and infrastructures, including internal financial control and reporting systems and functions, staffing and managing of foreign operations, which we might not be able to do effectively or cost-efficiently As we expand into these and additional markets these risks could be more significant and have the potential to have an adverse impact on us. Liquidity risk factor We face risks relating to liquidity of our capital resources. Liquidity risk, as we understand it, is the risk that we will not have sufficient financial resources to meet our obligations by the respective maturity dates or that we will honor such obligations but at an excessive cost. This risk is inherent in the activities of any commercial or retail bank. Our capacity and cost of funding may be impacted by a number of factors, such as changes in market conditions (e.g., in interest rates), credit supply, regulatory changes, systemic shocks in the banking sector, and changes in the market’s perception of us. In scenarios where access to funding is scarce and/or becomes too expensive, and the access to capital markets is either not possible or is limited, we may find ourselves obliged to increase the return rate paid to deposits made to attract more clients and/or to settle assets not compromised and/or potentially devalued so that we will be able to meet our obligations. If the market liquidity is reduced, the demand pressure may have a negative impact on prices, since natural buyers may not be immediately available. Should this happen, we may have a significant negative goodwill on assets, which will impact the bank’s results and financial position. The persistence or worsening of such adverse market conditions or rises in basic interest rates may have a material adverse impact on our capacity to access capital markets and on our cost of funding. Market Risk Factor The value of our securities and derivatives is subject to market fluctuations due to changes in Brazilian or international economic conditions and, as a result, may subject us to material losses. Market risk is the risk of losses due to movements in financial market prices. The securities and derivative financial instruments in our portfolio may cause us to record gains and losses, when sold or marked to market (in the case of trading securities), and may fluctuate considerably from period to period due to domestic and international economic conditions. In addition, we may incur losses from fluctuations in the market value of positions held, including risks associated with transactions subject to variations in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, price indexes, equity and commodity prices. We cannot predict the amount of realized or unrealized gains or losses for any future period. Gains or losses on our investment portfolio may not contribute to our net revenue in the future or may cease to contribute to our net revenue at levels consistent with more recent periods. We may not successfully realize the appreciation or depreciation now existing in our consolidated investment portfolio or in any assets of such portfolio. 22

Hedge Risk Factor Our hedge strategy may not be able to prevent losses. We use diverse instruments and strategies to hedge our exposures to a number of risks associated with our business, but we may incur losses if such hedges are not effective. We may not be able to hedge our positions, or do so only partially, or we may not have the desired effectiveness to mitigate our exposure to the diverse risks and market in which we are involved. Any of these scenarios may adversely affect our business and financial results. Underwriting Risk Factor Inadequate pricing methodologies for insurance, pension plan and premium bond products may adversely affect us. Our insurance and pension plan subsidiaries establish prices and calculations for our insurance and pension products based on actuarial or statistical estimates. The pricing of our insurance and pension plan products is based on models that include a number of assumptions and projections that may prove to be incorrect, since these assumptions and projections involve the exercise of judgment with respect to the levels and timing of receipt or payment of premiums, contributions, provisions, benefits, claims, expenses, interest, investment results, retirement, mortality, morbidity, and persistence. We could suffer losses due to events that are contrary to our expectations directly or indirectly based on incorrect biometric and economic assumptions or faulty actuarial bases used for contribution and provision calculations. Although the pricing of our insurance and pension plan products and the adequacy of the associated reserves are reassessed on a yearly basis, we cannot accurately determine whether our assets supporting our policy liabilities, together with future premiums and contributions, will be sufficient for the payment of benefits, claims, and expenses. Accordingly, the occurrence of significant deviations from our pricing assumptions could have an adverse effect on the profitability of our insurance and pension products. In addition, if we conclude that our reserves and future premiums are insufficient to cover future policy benefits and claims, we will be required to increase our reserves and record these effects in our financial statements, which may have a material adverse effect on us. Management Risk Factor Our policies, procedures and models related to risk control may be ineffective and our results may be adversely affected by unexpected losses. Our risk management methods, procedures and policies, including our statistical models and tools for risk measurement, such as value at risk, or VaR, for market risk default probability estimation models for credit risk or customer unusual behavior models for fraud detection or money-laundering risk identification, may not be fully effective in mitigating our risk exposure in all economic environments or against all types of risks, including those that we fail to identify or anticipate. Some of our qualitative tools and metrics for managing risk are based on our observations of the historical market behavior. In addition, due to limitations on information available in Brazil, to assess clients’ creditworthiness, we rely largely on credit information available from our own databases, on certain publicly available consumer credit information and other sources. We apply statistical and other tools to these observations and data to quantify our risk exposure. These tools and metrics may fail to predict all types of future risk exposures. These risk exposures, for example, could arise from factors we did not anticipate or correctly evaluate in our statistical models. This would limit our ability to manage our risks. Our losses, therefore, could be significantly greater than indicated by historical measures. In addition, our quantified modeling may not take all risks into account. Our qualitative approach to managing those risks could prove insufficient, exposing us to material unexpected losses. Our results of operations and financial position depend on our ability to evaluate losses associated with risks to which we are exposed and on our ability to build these risks into our pricing policies. We recognize an allowance for loan losses aiming at ensuring an allowance level compatible with the expected loss, according to internal models credit risk measurement. The calculation also involves significant judgment on the part of our management. Those judgments may prove to be incorrect or change in the future depending on information as it becomes available. These factors may adversely affect us. 23


LOGO

Strategy Risk Factor Our business strategy may not provide us the results we expect. Our strategy and challenges are determined by management based on related assumptions, such as the future economic environment, and the regulatory, political and social scenarios in the regions in which we operate. These assumptions are subject to inaccuracies and risks that might not be identified or anticipated. Accordingly, the results and consequences arising from any possible inaccurate assumptions may compromise our capacity to fully or partially implement strategies, as well as to achieve the results and benefits expected therefrom, which might give rise to financial losses and reduce the value creation to our stockholders. Additionally, factors beyond our control, such as, but not limited to, economic and market conditions, changes in laws and regulations, including regulations limiting fees or interest rates and fostering an increasingly competitive scenario, and other risk factors stated in this annual report may make it difficult or impossible to implement fully or partially our business model and also our achieving the results and benefits expected from our business plan. Adverse changes to the political and economic scenario in Latin America may affect some of the challenges we have taken on, such as the internationalization of our business, since our strategy to strengthen our position in other countries is also dependent on the respective economic performance of these countries. The integration of acquired or merged businesses involves certain risks that may have a material adverse effect on us. As part of our growth strategy in the Brazilian and Latin American financial sector, we have engaged in a number of mergers, acquisitions and partnerships with other companies and financial institutions in the past and may pursue further such transactions in the future. Until we have signed a definitive agreement, we usually do not comment publicly on possible acquisitions. When we do announce, our stock price may fall depending on the size of the acquisition. Even though we review the companies we plan to acquire, it is generally not viable for these reviews to be complete in all respects. Any such transactions involve risks, such as the possible incurrence of unanticipated costs as a result of difficulties in integrating systems, finance, accounting and personnel platforms, failure in diligence or the occurrence of unanticipated contingencies, as well as the breach of the transaction agreements by counterparties. In addition, we may not achieve the operating and financial synergies and other benefits that we expected from such transactions in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis or at all. There is also the risk that antitrust and other regulatory authorities may impose restrictions or limitations on the transactions or on the businesses that arise from certain combinations or impose fines or sanctions due to the interpretation by the authorities of irregularities with respect to a corporate merger, consolidation or acquisition. If we are unable to take advantage of business growth opportunities, cost savings, operating efficiencies, revenue synergies and other benefits we anticipate from mergers and acquisitions, or if we incur greater integration costs than we have estimated, then we may be adversely affected. Reputational Risk Factor Damage to our reputation could harm our business and outlook. We are highly dependent on our image and credibility to generate business. A number of factors may tarnish our reputation and generate a negative perception of the institution by our clients, counterparties, stockholders, investors, supervisors, commercial partners and other stakeholders, such as noncompliance with legal obligations, making irregular sales to clients, dealing with suppliers with questionable ethics, unauthorized disclosure of client data, inappropriate behavior by our employees, and thirdparty failures in risk management, among others. In addition, certain significant actions taken by third parties, such as competitors or other market participants, may indirectly damage our reputation with clients, investors and the market in general. If we are unable, or are perceived unable, to properly address these issues we may be subject to penalties, fines, class actions, and regulatory investigations, among others. Damages to our reputation among clients, investors and other stakeholders may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial performance and prospects. 24


LOGO

Financial Reporting Risks Factor We make estimates and assumptions in connection with the preparation of our financial statements, and any changes to those estimates and assumptions could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we use certain estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other factors. While we believe that these estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances, they are subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Should any of these estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, our reported operating results could be materially adversely affected. As a result of the inherent limitations in our disclosure and accounting controls, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file with or furnish to the SEC under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, recorded, processed summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, including related accounting controls, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. In addition, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of the controls. Any failure by us to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of investments in our securities. We are required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to furnish a report by our management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and to include a report by our independent auditors attesting to such effectiveness. Any failure by us to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect our ability to report accurately our financial condition or results of operations. If we are unable to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent auditors determine that we have a material weakness or significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, the market prices of our shares and ADSs could decline, and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to remedy any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies subject to SEC regulation, also could restrict our future access to the capital markets. We adopt Brazilian accounting standards and managerial disclosures that differ from foreign standards, including from the U.S., with which U.S. stockholders are familiar. For regulatory purposes, we prepare and make available consolidated financial statements under IFRS issued by IASB and under the Brazilian GAAP, which may differ from US GAAP in a number of ways. We use Brazilian GAAP for filing with the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”) and for calculation of payment of dividends and tax liabilities. Furthermore, we disclose quarterly reports on managerial financial information not required in other countries. U.S. investors may be unfamiliar with these different accounting standards and managerial disclosures adopted by us. Concentration Risk Factor We face risks related to market concentration. Concentration risk is the risk associated with potentially high financial losses triggered by significant exposure to a particular component of risk, whether it be related to a particular counterparty, industry, geographic region, mitigating instruments, index or currency. Examples of such risks include significant exposure to a single counterparty, to counterparties operating in the same economic sector or geographical region, to businesses segments or credit products, or to financial instruments that depend on the same index or currency. We believe that failure to diversify transactions with respect to a particular risk factor could generate material financial loss for us. 25


LOGO

Competition Risk Factor We face risks associated with the increasingly competitive environment, and recent consolidations in the Brazilian banking industry, as well as competition based on technological alternatives to traditional banking services. The Brazilian market for financial and banking services is highly competitive. We face significant competition from other Brazilian and international banks, in addition to other non-financial companies competing in certain segments of the banking industry in which we operate. These latter competitors may not be subject to the same regulatory and capital requirements that we are and, therefore, may be able to operate with less stringent regulatory requirements. Competition has increased as a result of recent consolidations among financial institutions in Brazil and of regulations that (i) increase the ability of clients to switch business between financial institutions, (ii) with the client’s permission, grant access to financial and personal information in such institutions, and (iii) establish rules for an instant payment arrangement. Furthermore, digital technologies are changing the ways customers access banking services and the competitive environment with respect to such services. The use of digital channels has risen steadily over the past few years. In this context, new competitors are seeking to disrupt existing business models through technological alternatives to traditional banking services. If we are not successfully able to compete with these disruptive business models and markets, we may lose market share and, consequently, lower our margins and profitability. Such increased competition may also adversely affect us by, among other things, limiting our ability to retain or increase our current client base and to expand our operations, or by impacting the fees and rates we adopt, which could reduce our profit margins on banking and other services and products we offer. We are subject to Brazilian antitrust legislation and that of other countries in which we operate or will possibly operate. We are in a dominant position in certain Brazilian banking markets and, therefore, may be subject to the Brazilian antitrust laws including Law No. 12,529/11, which address, among other matters, violation of the economic order. Accordingly we may be subject to penalties from Brazilian antitrust authorities, especially administrative fines and divestiture of assets. Additionally, we are subject to the antitrust legislation in the jurisdictions where we operate, such as the antitrust laws of the U.S. (Sherman Act and Clayton Antitrust Act) and of the European Union (Articles 101 and 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union). Consequently, we cannot assure that Brazilian and foreign antitrust regulations will not adversely affect our business in the future. b) Its parent company, direct or indirect, or control group Strategy Risk Factor Our controlling stockholder has the ability to direct our business. As of December 31, 2020, IUPAR, our controlling stockholder, directly owned 51.71% of our common shares and 26.15% of our total share capital, giving it the power to appoint and remove our directors and officers and determine the outcome of any action requiring stockholder approval, including transactions with related parties, corporate reorganizations and the timing and of dividend payments. In addition, IUPAR is jointly controlled by Itaúsa, which, in turn, is controlled by the Egydio de Souza Aranha family, and by Cia. E. Johnston, which in turn is controlled by the Moreira Salles family. The interests of IUPAR, Itaúsa and the Egydio de Souza Aranha and Moreira Salles families may be different from the interests of our other stockholders. Certain of our directors are affiliated with IUPAR and circumstances may arise in which the interests of IUPAR and its affiliates conflict with the interests of our other stockholders. To the extent that these and other conflicting interests exist, our stockholders will depend on our directors duly exercising their fiduciary duties as members of our Board of Directors. Notwithstanding, according to Brazilian Corporation Law the controlling stockholders should always vote in the interest of the company. In addition, they are prohibited from voting in cases of conflict of interest in the matter to be decided. 26

c) Its stockholders Risk Factors for ADS Holders The relative price volatility and limited liquidity of the Brazilian capital markets may significantly limit the ability of our investors to sell the preferred shares underlying our ADSs, at the price and time they desire. The investment in securities traded in emerging markets frequently involves a risk higher than an investment in securities of issuers from the U.S. or other developed countries, and these investments are generally considered more speculative. The Brazilian securities market is smaller, less liquid, more concentrated and can be more volatile than markets in the U.S. and other countries. Thus, an investor’s ability to sell preferred shares underlying ADSs at the price and time the investor desires may be substantially limited. The preferred shares underlying our ADSs do not have voting rights, except in specific circumstances. Pursuant to our Bylaws, the holders of preferred shares and therefore of our ADSs are not entitled to vote in our general stockholders’ meetings, except in specific circumstances. Even in such circumstances, ADS holders may be subject to practical restrictions on their ability to exercise their voting rights due to additional operational steps involved in communicating with these stockholders, as mentioned below. According to the provisions of the ADSs deposit agreement, in the event of a general stockholders’ meeting, we will provide notice to the depositary bank, which will, to the extent practicable, send such notice to ADS holders and instructions on how such holders can participate in such general stockholders’ meeting, and ADS holders should instruct the depositary bank on how to vote in order to exercise their voting rights. This additional step of instructing the ADS depositary bank may make the process for exercising voting rights longer for ADS holders. Holders of ADSs may be unable to exercise preemptive rights with respect to our preferred shares. We may not be able to offer the U.S. holders of our ADSs preemptive rights granted to holders of our preferred shares in the event of an increase of our share capital by issuing preferred shares unless a registration statement relating to such preemptive rights and our preferred shares is effective or an exemption from such registration requirements of the Securities Act is available. As we are not obligated to file a registration statement relating to preemptive rights with respect to our preferred shares, we cannot assure that preemptive rights will be offered to you. In the event such registration statement is not filed (or in case filed, not declared effective) or if the exemption from registration is not available, the U.S. holders of our ADSs may not receive any value from the granting of such preemptive rights and have their interests in us diluted. The surrender of ADSs may cause the loss of the ability to remit foreign currency abroad and of certain Brazilian tax advantages. While ADS holders benefit from the electronic certificate of foreign capital registration obtained in Brazil by the custodian for our preferred shares underlying the ADSs, which permits the depositary bank to convert dividends and other distributions with respect to the preferred shares underlying the ADSs into foreign currency and remit the proceeds abroad, the availability and requirements of such electronic certificate may be adversely affected by future legislative changes. If an ADS holder surrenders the ADSs and, consequently, receives preferred shares underlying the ADSs, such holder will have to register its investment in the preferred shares with the Central Bank either as (i) a Foreign Direct Investment, subject to Law No. 4,131/62, which will require an electronic certificate of foreign capital registration, the Electronic Declaratory Registration of Foreign Direct Investment (RDE-IED), or (ii) as a Foreign Investment in Portfolio, subject to Resolution CMN No. 4,373/14, which among other requirements, requires the appointment of a financial institution in Brazil as the custodian of the preferred shares (except in case the foreign investor is a natural person) and legal representative of the foreign investor in the Electronic Declaratory Registration of Portfolio (RDE – Portfolio). The failure to register the investment in the preferred shares as foreign investment under one of the regimes mentioned above (e.g. RDE – IED or RDE – Portfolio) will impact the ability of the holder non-resident in Brazil to dispose of the preferred shares and to receive dividends. Moreover, upon receipt of the preferred shares underlying the ADSs, Brazilian regulations require the investor to enter into corresponding exchange rate transactions and pay taxes on these exchange rate transactions, as applicable. The tax treatment for the remittance of distributions on, and the proceeds from any sale of, our preferred shares may be less favorable in case a holder of preferred shares obtains the RDE-IED instead of the RDE-Portfolio. In addition, if a holder of preferred shares attempts to obtain an electronic certificate of 27


LOGO

foreign capital registration, such holder may incur expenses or suffer delays in the application process, which could impact the investor’s ability to receive dividends or distributions relating to our preferred shares or the return of capital on a timely manner. The holders of ADSs have rights that differ from those of stockholders of companies organized under the laws of the U.S. or other countries. Our corporate affairs are governed by our Bylaws and Brazilian Corporate Law, which may have legal principles that differ from those that would apply if we were incorporated in the U.S. or in another country. Under Brazilian Corporate Law, the holders of ADSs and the holders of our preferred shares may have different rights with respect to the protection of investor interests, including remedies available to investors in relation to any actions taken by our Board of Directors or the holders of our common shares, which may be different from what is provided in U.S. law or the law of another country. d) Its subsidiary and affiliated companies As we are a holding company, the risk factors that may influence the decision to invest in our securities arise essentially from the risk factors to which our subsidiary and affiliated companies are exposed, as described in Item 4.1. e) Its suppliers Operational risk factor Some factors include events that are fully or partially beyond our control, such as power outages, interruption of telecommunication services, and generalized system failures, as well as internal and external events that may affect third parties with which we do business or that are crucial to our business activities (including stock exchanges, clearing houses, financial dealers or service providers). We have an ongoing supplier assessment process that mitigates the risk of interruption of the provision of services and materials and of situations that may impact the bank’s image. The operational risks reported in the letter “a” of this item are the same for this section. f) Its clients Credit Risk Factor Past performance of our loan portfolio may not be indicative of future performance, changes in the profile of our business may adversely affect our loan portfolio. In addition, the value of any collateral securing our loans may not be sufficient, and we may be unable to realize the full value of the collateral securing our loan portfolio. Our historical loan loss experience may not be indicative of our future loan losses. While the quality of our loan portfolio is associated with the default risk in the sectors in which we operate, changes in our business profile may occur due, among other factors, to our organic growth, merger and acquisition activity, changes in local economic and political conditions, a slowdown in customer demand, an increase in market competition, the outbreak of communicable diseases such as COVID-19, changes in regulation and in the tax regimes applicable to the sectors in which we operate and, to a lesser extent, other related changes in countries in which we operate and in the international economic environment. More recently, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may affect our ability to accurately assess the creditworthiness of borrowers, which would lead to a deterioration of risk profile and adversely affect our business financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the market value of any collateral related to our loan portfolio may fluctuate, from the time we evaluate it at the beginning of the trade to the time such collateral can be executed upon, due to the factors related to changes in economic, political or sectorial factors beyond our control. For example, historically, when Brazilian banks increased their loan portfolio to consumers, particularly in the automotive sector, this increased demand for vehicle loans has been followed by a significant rise in the level of consumer indebtedness, leading to high nonperforming loan rates. As a result, many financial institutions recorded higher loan losses due to an increased volume of provisions and a decrease in loans for vehicle acquisition. 28


LOGO

Any changes affecting any of the sectors to which we have significant lending exposure, and changes in the value of the collateral securing our loans, may result in a reduction in the value we realize from collateral and in our loan portfolio. Consequentially, it may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition and it could also adversely affect the growth rate and the mix of our loan portfolio. In addition, if we are unable to recover sums owed to us under secured loans in default through extrajudicial measures such as restructurings, our last recourse with respect to such loans may be to enforce the collateral secured in our favor by the applicable borrower. Depending on the type of collateral granted, we either have to enforce such collateral through the courts or through extrajudicial measures. However, even where the enforcement mechanism is duly established by the law, Brazilian law allows borrowers to challenge the enforcement in the courts, even if such challenge is unfounded, which can delay the realization of value from the collateral. In addition, our secured claims under Brazilian law will in certain cases rank below those of preferred creditors such as employees and tax authorities. As a result, we may not be able to realize value from the collateral, or may only be able to do so to a limited extent or after a significant amount of time, thereby potentially adversely affecting our financial condition and results of operations. g) Economic sectors in which the issuer operates Macroeconomic Risk Factors International Scenario Changes in economic conditions may adversely affect us. Our operations are dependent upon the performance of the economies of the countries in which we do business, and Latin American countries in particular. Crises and volatility in the financial markets of countries other than Brazil may affect the global financial markets and the Brazilian economy and may have a negative impact on our operations. The demand for credit and financial services, as well as our clients’ ability to repay, is directly impacted by macroeconomic variables, such as economic growth, income, unemployment rate, inflation, and fluctuations in interest and foreign exchange rates. Disruptions and volatility in the global financial markets may have significant consequences in the countries in which we operate, such as volatility in the prices of securities, interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Higher uncertainty and volatility may result in a slowdown in the credit market and the economy, which, in turn, could lead to higher unemployment rates and a reduction in the purchasing power of consumers. In addition, such events may significantly impair our clients’ ability to perform their obligations and increase overdue or non-performing loans, resulting in an increase in the risk associated with our lending activity. The economic and market conditions of other countries, including the United States, countries of the European Union, and emerging markets, may affect the credit availability and the volume of foreign investments in Brazil and in the countries in which we do business, to varying degrees. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic remains a concern for the global economy, despite the decrease of infection rates in most developed countries and vaccines being distributed worldwide. The number of COVID-19 cases are falling across countries as winter (in the northern hemisphere) and holiday outbreaks dissipate. In the U.S., cases, hospitalizations and deaths are falling in nearly all states, allowing some easing of restrictions. In Europe, recent surges in the virus have been curbed, but some countries are taking new restrictive measures to avoid new waves. Vaccination campaigns are accelerating in several countries and the global vaccine supply is expected to keep increasing in the second and third quarters of 2021. In our view, the worldwide distribution of vaccines in 2021 is the most important initiative for a full recovery of the global economy. A new surge of infections arising, for example from new strains of the virus and any event that might hinder governments further controlling the spread of COVID-19, such as delays in the distribution of vaccines or inefficient vaccines themselves may lead to governments having to maintain restrictions on mobility to try to contain the further spread of the disease, thus leading to a suppression of economic activity. Although these risks have decreased mostly for developed markets, their materialization would affect global growth and may decrease investors’ interest in assets from Brazil and other countries in 29


LOGO

which we do business, which would adversely affect the market price of our securities, possibly making it more difficult for us to access capital markets and, as a result, to finance our operations in the future. The rise in global interest rates reflects the economic recovery outlook and is less of a concern in the near term, as we expect the Fed to maintain its ample accommodative stance in 2021 and gradually withdraw stimulus only in 2022. A faster withdrawal of monetary stimulus in developed economies can affect emerging economies and thus affect our operations. We are exposed to certain risks that are particular to emerging and other markets. In conducting our business in Brazil, as well as other emerging markets, we are subject to political, economic, legal, operational and other risks that are inherent to operating in these countries. Banks that operate in countries considered to be emerging markets, including us, may be particularly susceptible to disruptions and reductions in the availability of credit or increases in financing costs, which may have a material adverse impact on our operations. In particular, the availability of credit to financial institutions operating in emerging markets is significantly influenced by an aversion to global risk. In addition, any factor impacting investor confidence, such as a downgrade in sovereign credit ratings (since the ratings of financial institutions, such as us, tends to be capped to the sovereign’s rating) or an intervention by a government or monetary authority in one of such markets, may affect the price or availability of resources for financial institutions in any of these markets, which may affect us. In Argentina, international reserves continue at low levels, despite controls on exchange rate purchases. The economy rebounded during the second half of 2020, as a result of the easing of social distancing measures, but GDP fell by 10% in 2020. For 2021, we expect GDP growth of 6.0%, aided by statistical carry-over and higher commodity prices. Loose macro-economic policies are likely to fuel inflation, potentially leading to more control on prices (including foreign exchange). In Chile, protests led political actors to agree on a referendum process to decide on a new constitution. While uncertainty over the constitutional process and elections later in 2021 is negatively affect the economic activity in Chile, an efficient vaccination process and higher terms of trade are important offsetting factors. Colombia´s fiscal accounts were pressured during the COVID-19 pandemic and the government recently signaled a postponement of fiscal adjustment (fiscal deficit this year would be even wider than in 2020). While a tax reform may help fiscal consolidation from 2022 onwards, it is unclear whether there is political appetite for unpopular tax hikes. At the same time, contrasting with other countries in the region, Colombia recorded a wide current account deficit in 2020, contributing to an increase in external indebtedness. In this context, Colombia´s sovereign investment grade is at risk. Crises in these countries may decrease investors’ interest in Brazilian assets, which may materially and adversely affect the market price of our securities, making it more difficult for us to access capital markets and, as a result, to finance our operations in the future. Global financial crises, in addition to the Brazilian macroeconomic environment, may also affect in a material and adverse way the market price of securities of Brazilian issuers or lead to other negative effects in Brazil and in the countries in which we operate and have a material adverse effect on us. Domestic Scenario Brazilian authorities exercise influence over the Brazilian economy. Changes in fiscal, monetary and foreign exchange policies as well as a deterioration of government fiscal accounts, may adversely affect us. Our operations are highly dependent upon the performance of the Brazilian economy. The demand for credit and financial services, as well as our clients’ ability to make payments when due, is directly impacted by macroeconomic variables, such as economic growth, income, unemployment, inflation, and fluctuations in interest and foreign exchange rates. Brazilian GDP grew 1.4% in 2019, but decreased 4.1% in 2020, impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. The number of new daily deaths rebounded in the first quarter of 2021 and has surpassed the levels registered during the first wave of COVID-19 in 2020. Control of the COVID-19 pandemic is crucial for continued economic recovery. In the long term, growth may be limited by a number of factors, 30


LOGO

including structural factors, such as inadequate infrastructure, which entail risks of potential energy shortages and deficiencies in the transportation sector, among others, and a lack of qualified professionals, which can reduce the country’s productivity and efficiency levels. Low levels of national savings require relatively large financial flows from abroad, which may falter if political and fiscal instability is perceived by foreign investors. Depending on their intensity, these factors could lead to decreasing employment rates and to lower income and consumption levels, which could result in increased default rates on loans we grant for individuals and non-financial corporations and, therefore, have a material adverse effect on us. Brazilian authorities intervene from time to time in the Brazilian economy, through changes in fiscal, monetary, foreign exchange policies, and in state-owned public companies—which may adversely affect us. These changes may impact variables that are crucial for our growth strategy (such as foreign exchange and interest rates, liquidity in the currency market, tax burden, and economic growth), thus limiting our operations in certain markets, affecting our liquidity and our client’s ability to pay, the risk appetite of foreign investors with respect to Brazil and, consequently, affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition. Fiscal The Brazilian primary public accounts have deteriorated since 2014. To address the structural fiscal imbalance, the Brazilian Congress approved a ceiling on government spending that will limit primary public expenditure growth to the prior year’s inflation for a period of at least ten years, effective as of 2017. Further, Congress approved a comprehensive social security reform and the government started an asset sale program, creating conditions for a cyclical decrease of the public debt, while the primary result gradually improves. In 2021, the Congress approved another round of temporary emergency expenditure to combat the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, in exchange for measures to reinforce the fiscal adjustment framework that will help to limit mandatory expenditure growth and to keep the ceiling on public spending feasible in the years ahead. The government also has a comprehensive reform agenda, the main examples being the Administrative Reform and the Tax Reform. However, these discussions were temporarily put on hold due the COVID-19 pandemic. If the government fails to persist with the fiscal adjustment agenda, the local economy would be negatively impacted, with a depreciation of the Brazilian real, an increase in inflation and interest rates and a deceleration of economic growth, thus adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition. Monetary Sudden increases in prices and long periods of high inflation may cause, among other effects, loss of purchasing power and distortions in the allocation of resources in the economy. Measures to combat high inflation rates include a tightening of monetary policy, with an increase in the short-term interest rate (SELIC), resulting in restrictions on credit and short-term liquidity, which may have a material adverse effect on us. Changes in interest rates may have a material effect on our net margins, since they impact our costs of funding and granting credit. In addition, increases in the SELIC interest rate could reduce demand for credit and increase the costs of our reserves and the risk of default by our clients. Conversely, decreases in the SELIC interest rate could reduce our gains from interest-bearing assets, as well as our net margins. The Central Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee (the “COPOM”) was created on June 20, 1996 and is responsible for setting the SELIC interest rate. The COPOM meets eight times a year, every 45 days. The aim in creating the COPOM was to enhance monetary policy transparency and confer adequate regularity to the monetary policy decision-making process. Currently, many central banks around the world follow similar procedures, facilitating the decision-making process, monetary policy transparency and communication with the public. After reaching 14.25% per annum at the end of 2015, the Central Bank began to cut interest rates in October 2016. The SELIC rate reached 2.00% in August 2020 and remained at this level until February 2021. In March 2021, the Central Bank increased the SELIC rate by 0.75 percentage points to 2.75%. The widespread decline in inflation, due to the high level of idle capacity in the Brazilian economy, as well as anchored inflation expectations have resulted in the SELIC reaching historically low levels. 31

The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic slowdown and volatility in the Brazilian and global financial and capital markets had, and may in the future continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations across our business units. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, liquidity, results of operations and financial condition, it will also have the effect of materially heightening many of the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section. The COVID-19 pandemic and governmental responses thereto have had, and may continue to have, a severe impact on global and Brazilian macro-economic and financial conditions, including the disruption of supply chains and the closures or interruptions of many businesses, leading to losses of revenues, increased unemployment and economic stagnation and contraction. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in materially increased volatility in both Brazilian and international financial markets and economic indicators, including exchange rates, interest rates and credit spreads. For example, as a result of heightened volatility, the B3 Exchange’s circuit breaker was triggered eight times in the month of March 2020 and the value of assets was negatively impacted. Any shocks or unexpected movements in these market factors could result in financial losses associated with our trading portfolio or financial assets, which could deteriorate our financial condition. Furthermore, market concerns could translate into liquidity constraints and reduced access to funding in both the local and the international markets, negatively affecting our business. Measures taken by governmental authorities worldwide, including Brazil, to stabilize markets and support economic growth may not be sufficient to control high volatility or to prevent serious and prolonged reductions in economic activity. In addition, the social distancing measures imposed by governmental authorities to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a sharp drop or even a halt in the activities of companies in various sectors that we transact with and otherwise serve. While many of these restrictions have since been lifted, there is no way to predict whether new patterns of contagion, increasing disease severity or other factors related to the pandemic, including access to, or the efficiency of, a vaccine, may result in a renewed tightening of these policies or the imposition of new and different restrictions. These policies and measures have influenced the behavior of the consumer market and the population in general, the demand for services, products and credit. In addition, there can be no assurance that the restrictive measures imposed by certain Brazilian states and municipalities will not worsen if Brazil faces new waves of COVID-19. For example, at the beginning of 2021, a novel strain of COVID-19 started circulating in Brazil, causing an increase in the number of deaths and hospitalizations. On March 11, 2021, Brazil was considered the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of number of confirmed cases and deaths. In March 2021, Brazil registered 321,515 deaths from COVID-19. As a result, public authorities in Brazil reinstated more severe restrictive measures, including social distancing, quarantine and lockdowns. Moreover, there can be no assurance that there will be no delays in COVID-19 vaccinations in Brazil, including as a result of supply shortages and delays on Brazilian regulatory approval of certain vaccines. The weakened macroeconomic fundamentals coupled with the market downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic had, and may in the future have, a negative impact on our performance across all our business units. Impacts on our business could be widespread, and material impacts may be possible, including but not limited to the following: Employees contracting COVID-19; Reductions in our operating effectiveness as our employees work from home or disaster-recovery locations; Unavailability of key personnel necessary to conduct our business activities, including a lack of qualified IT personnel to support remote working or combat any cyber risks; Unprecedented volatility in global financial markets and exchange markets; Reductions in revenue across our operating businesses and increased customer defaults; Closure of our offices or the offices of our clients; and 32

Potential regulatory scrutiny of our ability to adequately supervise our activities in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. The extent of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, unpredictable and which depend on several factors that are beyond our control, including the possibility of additional outbreaks, further mutations of the virus and the intensity of the economic downturn resulting from actions taken, or to be taken, by government authorities and the scientific community in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including in relation to the availability and efficiency of vaccines and other treatments. Consumers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to show retraction behaviors, even after the end of the crisis, maintaining low levels of discretionary spending in the long term, which is why certain sectors we serve may take longer to recover (particularly sectors such as hotels, civil aviation, shopping centers and wholesale retailers). Ongoing high profile anti-corruption investigations in Brazil may affect the perception of Brazil and domestic growth prospects. Certain relevant Brazilian companies in the energy, infrastructure and oil and gas sectors are facing investigations by the CVM, the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), the Brazilian Federal Police and other Brazilian public entities who are responsible for corruption and cartel investigations, in connection with corruption allegations (so called “Lava Jato” investigations) and, depending on the outcome of such investigations and the time it takes to conclude them, they may face (as some of them already faced) downgrades from credit rating agencies, experience (as some of them already experienced) funding restrictions and have (as some of them already had) a reduction in revenues, among other negative effects. Such negative effects may hinder the ability of those companies to timely honor their financial obligations bringing loses to us as a number of them are our clients. The companies involved in the Lava Jato investigations, a number of which are our clients, may also be (as some of them already have been) prosecuted by investors on the grounds that they were misled by the information released to them, including their financial statements. Moreover, the current corruption investigations have contributed to reduce the value of the securities of several companies. The investment banks (including Itau BBA Securities in NY) that acted as underwriters on public distributions of securities of such investigated companies, and Banco Itau International, our private banking vehicle in Miami, were in the recent past also parties to certain related lawsuits in the U.S., that were either settled or dismissed, and may become parties to other legal proceedings yet to be filed. We cannot predict how long the corruption investigations may continue, or how significant the effects of the corruption investigations may be for the Brazilian economy and for the financial sector that may be investigated for the commercial relationships it may have held with companies and persons involved in Lava Jato investigations. Another high profile investigation, besides Lava Jato, ongoing in Brazil is the so-called Zelotes operation. If the allegations of such investigations are confirmed they may also affect some of our clients and their credit trustworthiness. In March 2016, the Brazilian Internal Revenue Services, or Brazilian IRS, summoned us to account for certain tax proceedings related to BankBoston Brazil which came under investigation in relation to the Zelotes operations. We acquired BankBoston Brazil’s operation from Bank of America in 2006. On December 1, 2016, the Brazilian Federal Police conducted searches at Itaú Unibanco’s premises, to look for documents related to those proceedings, and documents related to payments made to lawyers and consultants that acted on those proceedings. We clarify that the agreement with Bank of America for the acquisition of BankBoston Brazil’s operations included a provision whereby the seller would remain liable and responsible for the conduct of BankBoston’s tax proceedings, including with regard to the retention of lawyers and consultants. Therefore, according to such agreement, any and all payments made by Itaú Unibanco to lawyers and consultants were made strictly on behalf of Bank of America. On July 2017, the Brazilian Federal Public Prosecutor indicted some lawyers and public agents regarding this case, based on their potential participation on the scheme. None of them was Itau’s employees or executives. We remain fully available and will cooperate with the authorities should any further clarification be needed. After reviewing our control procedures and our monitoring systems, we believe we are in compliance with the existing standards, especially related to anti-money laundering standards; notwithstanding, due to the size and breadth of our operations and our commercial relationship with investigated companies or persons, and due to the several banks, both publicly and privately owned, that Itaú Unibanco acquired throughout the last fifteen years, we may also come within the scope of investigations, which may ultimately result in reputational damage, civil or 33

criminal liability. Negative effects on a number of companies may also impact the level of investments in infrastructure in Brazil, which may also lead to lower economic growth. h) Regulation of the sectors in which the issuer operates Banking Regulation Risk Factors We are subject to regulation on a consolidated basis and may be subject to liquidation or intervention on a consolidated basis. We operate in a number of credit and financial services related sectors through entities under our control. For purposes of regulation and supervision, the Central Bank treats us and our subsidiaries and affiliates as a single financial institution. While our consolidated capital base provides financial strength and flexibility to our subsidiaries and affiliates, their individual activities could indirectly put our capital base at risk. Any investigation or intervention by the Central Bank, particularly in the activities carried out by any of our subsidiaries and affiliates, could have a material adverse impact on our other subsidiaries and affiliates and, ultimately, on us. If we or any of our financial subsidiaries become insolvent, the Central Bank may carry out an intervention or liquidation process on a consolidated basis rather than conduct such procedures for each individual entity. In the event of an intervention or a liquidation process on a consolidated basis, our creditors would have claims on our assets and the assets of our consolidated financial subsidiaries. In this case, claims of creditors of the same nature held against us and our consolidated financial subsidiaries would rank equally in respect of payment. If the Central Bank carries out a liquidation or intervention process with respect to us or any of our financial subsidiaries on an individual basis, our creditors will not have a direct claim on the assets of such financial subsidiaries, and the creditors of such financial subsidiaries would have priority in relation to our creditors in connection with such financial subsidiaries’ assets. The Central Bank also has the authority to carry out other corporate reorganizations or transfers of control under an intervention or liquidation process. Changes in applicable law or regulations may have a material adverse effect on our business. Changes in the law or regulations applicable to financial institutions in Brazil may affect our ability to grant loans and collect debts in arrears, which may have an adverse effect on us. Our operations could also be adversely affected by other changes, including with respect to restrictions on remittances abroad and other exchange controls as well as by interpretations of the law by courts and agencies in a manner that differs from our legal advisors’ opinions. In the context of economic or financial crises, the Brazilian government may also decide to implement changes to the legal framework applicable to the operation of Brazilian financial institutions. For example, in response to the global financial crisis which began in late 2007, Brazilian national and intergovernmental regulatory entities, such as the BCBS, proposed regulatory reforms aiming to prevent the recurrence of similar crises, which included a new requirement to increase the minimum regulatory capital (Basel III). Moreover, the Brazilian Congress is considering enacting new legislation that, if signed into law as currently drafted, could have an adverse effect on our activities. In 2019, multiple bills sought to limit interest rates, particularly for credit cards’ facilities (“rotativo do cartão”) and overdrafts facilities (“cheque especial”) – the latter, with limits that are more restrictive than those recently imposed by the Central Bank. Further caps on interest rates may be adopted. Furthermore, a proposed law to amend the Brazilian consumer protection code would allow courts to modify terms and conditions of credit agreements in certain circumstances, imposing certain difficulties for the collection of amounts from final consumers. In 2021, the Brazilian Congress is expected to consider bills that increase the tax burden of the banking and financial services sectors and to put to vote a bill that will allow the execution of convictions after condemnation in the second instance court, both in the criminal and in the civil spheres, before the exhaustion of all available appeals. If signed into law, the bill may have an impact on the execution of tax debts proceedings of which the bank is part. In addition, local or state legislatures may from time to time consider bills intending to impose security measures and standards for customer services, such as setting branch opening hours, requiring 24 hours armed guard personnel and specifications on ATM functioning, among others, that, if signed into law, could 34


LOGO \

affect our operations. More recently, certain bills have passed (and others were proposed) in certain Brazilian states or municipalities that affect our ability to evaluate credit risk and collect outstanding debts. For example, legislators often impose, or aim to impose, restrictions on the ability of creditors to include the information about insolvent debtors in the records of credit protection bureaus. These types of restrictions could also adversely affect our ability to collect outstanding credit. We also have operations outside of Brazil, including, but not limited to, Argentina, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, Portugal, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States and Uruguay. Changes in the laws or regulations applicable to our business in the countries where we operate, or the adoption of new laws, and related regulations, may have an adverse effect on us. Increases in compulsory deposit requirements may have a material adverse effect on us. Compulsory deposits are reserves that financial institutions are required to maintain with the Central Bank. Compulsory deposits generally do not provide the same returns as other investments and deposits because a portion of these compulsory deposits does not bear interest. The Central Bank has periodically changed the minimum level of compulsory deposits reserves that financial institutions are required to maintain with the Central Bank. Insurance Regulations Risk Factor Our insurance operation is subject to regulatory agencies, such as SUSEP and ANS. Therefore, we may be affected negatively by the penalties applied by such regulators. Insurance companies are subject to SUSEP intervention and/or liquidation. In case of insufficient resources, technical reserves, or poor economic health with respect to a regulated entity, SUSEP may appoint an inspector to act within the relevant company. If such intervention does not remedy the issue, SUSEP will forward to CNSP a proposal to withdraw the applicable insurance license. In addition, insurance companies are subject to pecuniary penalties, warnings, suspension of authorization of activities and disqualification to engage in business activities as set in Law. Health insurance companies are subject to ANS regulations. With respect to companies that are deemed to have financial imbalances or serious economic, financial or administrative irregularities, ANS may order the disposal of the applicable health insurance company’s portfolio, or take other measures, such as fiscal or technical direction regime for a period not exceeding 365 days, or extrajudicial liquidation. The penalties established for violations committed by health insurance companies and their directors and officers are: (i) warnings; (ii) pecuniary penalties; (iii) suspension of company’s activities; (iv) temporary disqualification for the exercise of management positions in health insurance companies; (v) permanent disqualification for the exercise of management positions in health insurance companies as well as in open private pension funds, insurance companies, insurance brokers and financial institutions; and (vi) the cancellation of the company’s authorization to operate and sale of its portfolio. Accordingly, our insurance operations may be affected negatively by any penalties applied by SUSEP or ANS, as described above. Capital Market and Tax Regulations Risk Factors Holders of our shares and ADSs may not receive any dividends. Corporations in Brazil are legally required to pay their stockholders a minimum mandatory dividend at least on a yearly basis (except in specific cases provided for in applicable law). Our Bylaws determine that we must pay our stockholders at least 25% of our annual net income calculated and adjusted pursuant to Brazilian Corporate Law. Applicable Brazilian legislation also allows corporations to consider the amount of interest on shareholders’ equity distributed to their stockholders for purposes of calculating the minimum mandatory dividends. The calculation of net income pursuant to the Brazilian Corporate Law may significantly differ from our net income calculated under IFRS, as issued by the IASB. 35


LOGO

Brazilian Corporate Law also allows the suspension of the payment of the mandatory dividends in any particular year if our Board of Directors informs our general stockholders’ meeting that such payment would be incompatible with our financial condition. To suspend the dividend payments, our Fiscal Council is required to furnish to the CVM an opinion on the matter along with a statement by our executives. Therefore, upon the occurrence of such event, the holders of our shares and ADSs may not receive any dividends. If this happens, the dividends that were not paid in the particular fiscal year shall be registered as a special reserve and, if not used to cover any losses of subsequent years, the amounts of unpaid dividends still available under such reserve shall be distributed when the financial condition of the corporation allows for such payment. Furthermore, pursuant to its regulatory powers provided under Brazilian law and banking regulations, the Central Bank may at its sole discretion reduce the dividends or determine that no dividends will be paid by a financial institution if such restriction is necessary to mitigate relevant risks to the Brazilian financial system or the financial institution. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CMN issued Resolution No. 4,820, amended by Resolution No. 4,885, establishing restrictions regarding the distribution by financial institutions of dividends and interest on capital. Tax reforms may adversely affect our operations and profitability. The Brazilian government regularly amends tax laws and regulations, including by creating new taxes, which can be temporary, and changing tax rates, the basis on which taxes are assessed or the way taxes are calculated, including in respect of tax rates applicable solely to the banking industry. Currently, the Brazilian Congress is discussing a broad tax reform and there is no clarity as to when such reform may ultimately be enacted. If adopted, any such tax reform may affect our business by increasing our costs, limiting our profitability or having other impacts. Litigation Risk Factors Unfavorable court decisions involving material amounts for which we have no or partial provisions or in the event that the losses estimated turn out to be significantly higher than the provisions made, may adversely affect our results and financial condition. As part of the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to, and party to various civil, tax and labor lawsuits, which involve financial risks. Our audited consolidated financial statements only include reserves for probable losses that can be reasonably estimated and eventual expenses that we incur in connection with litigation or administrative proceedings, or as otherwise required by Brazilian law. It is currently not possible to estimate the amount of all potential costs that we may incur or penalties that may be imposed on us other than those amounts for which we have reserves. In the event of unfavorable court decisions involving material amounts for which we have no or partial provisions, or in the event that the losses estimated turn out to be significantly higher than the provisions made, the aggregate cost of unfavorable decisions, may adversely affect our results and financial condition. Decisions on lawsuits due to government monetary stabilization plans may have a material adverse effect on us. We are a defendant in lawsuits for the collection of understated inflation adjustment for savings resulting from the economic plans implemented in the 1980s and 1990s by the Brazilian government as a measure to combat inflation. Itaú Unibanco Holding is a defendant in lawsuits filed by individuals, as well as class actions filed by (i) consumer protection associations; and (ii) the public attorneys’ office (Ministério Público) on behalf of holders of savings accounts. In connection with these class actions, we established provisions upon service of the individual claim requiring the enforcement of a judgment handed down by the judiciary, using the same criteria used to determine the provisions of individual actions. 36


LOGO

The STF has issued a number of decisions in favor of the holders of savings accounts but has not ruled regarding the constitutionality of economic plans and their applicability to savings accounts. Currently, the appeals on this issue are suspended by order of the STF, until there is a definitive decision by the STF regarding the constitutional issue. In December 2017, under the mediation of the Advocacia-Geral da União (or AGU), the representative entities of banks and the representative entities of holders of savings accounts entered into an agreement with the objective of ending the litigation related to economic plans against the Brazilian banks. The agreement establishes the conditions for the voluntary adhesion of the holders of savings accounts for the receiving of amounts and closure of processes. The agreement was ratified at a plenary session of the STF on March 1, 2018 and the holders of savings accounts were able to adhere to its terms for a period of 24 months. As this period expired, the parties signed an addendum to the instrument to extend the adhesion period to include a greater number of saving account holders and, consequently, increase the termination of legal actions. In May 2020, the STF approved this addendum and granted a term of thirty months for new adhesions, which may be extended for another thirty months, conditioned to the number of account holders adhering throughout the first period. As such, low adherence to the agreement and an eventual unfavorable judgment by the STF may result in Brazilian banks incurring relevant costs, which could have an adverse effect on our financial position. We are currently working with the courts to encourage adherence. Tax assessments may adversely affect us. As part of the normal course of business, we are subject to inspections by federal, municipal and state tax authorities. These inspections, arising from the divergence in the understanding of the application of tax laws may generate tax assessments which, depending on their results, may have an adverse effect on our financial results. Also due to such proceedings and for other reasons we may be thwarted by a court decision to pay dividends and other distributions to our shareholders. i) Foreign countries in which the issuer operates The risk factors related to foreign countries that may influence the decision to invest in our securities are described in sub items (a), (g), and (h) of this item 4.1. j) Environmental and social (E&S) issues Environmental and Social Risks Factors We may incur financial losses and damages to our reputation from environmental and social risks. Environmental and social risk is considered a material issue for our business, since it can affect the creation of shared value in the short, medium and long terms, from the standpoint of our organization and our main stakeholders. Further, we understand environmental and social risk as the possibility of losses resulting from events of environmental and social origin related to our activities. CMN Resolution No. 4,327/2014 establishes requirements that must be observed in the establishment and implementation of the environmental and social responsibility policies applicable to financial institutions. Accordingly, we are required to assess environmental and social risks and evaluate data from environmental and social related financial losses. The Central Bank is responsible for supervising the implementation of such regulation. 37

Environmental and social issues may affect our daily activities and the revenue of our clients, causing defaults, especially in case of serious environmental and social incidents, including climate risk as climate change poses relevant risks for the whole financial system. Climate risks encompass both physical risks, arising from changes in climate patterns such as rainfalls and rises in temperature and extreme weather events; and transition risks arising from economic shifts occurred as a consequence of climate action such as carbon pricing, climate regulation, market risks and reputation risks. Given its relevance, climate risk has become one of our main priorities: we support the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) since 2017 and we are committed to implement its recommendations by 2022. With this objective we are strengthening our climate risk governance and strategy and developing tools and methodologies to assess and manage climate risks. These risks are more pronounced when we provide financial support for clients and projects, as we could be held indirectly liable for supporting such activity in case of environmental or social damage, which could also subject us to further reputational risks. Climate change may have adverse effects on our business The risks associated with climate change are gaining increasing social, regulatory, economic and political relevance, both nationally and internationally. New regulations related to climate change may affect our operations and business strategy, leading us to incorporate financial costs resulting from: (i) the physical risk of climate change and (ii) the risk of transition to a low carbon economy. The physical risks of climate change are related to the gradual increase in the average temperature of the planet and to the increase in the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events. Despite the uncertainty component related to the intensity and location of these events, their impact on the economy is expected to be more acute in the future. The potential impact on the economy includes, but is not limited to, significant changes in asset prices and industry profitability. Damage to borrowers’ properties and operations may impair asset values and credit quality of customers, leading to higher nonperformance loans, write-offs and impairment charges in our portfolios. In addition, our facilities and resilience may also suffer physical damage due to weather events that result in increased costs for us. As the economy transitions to a low-carbon economy, financial institutions may face significant and rapid developments in stakeholder expectations, policy, law and regulation which could impact the lending activities we undertake, as well as the risks associated with our lending portfolios, and the value of our financial assets. As concerns about climate change increase and societal preferences change, we may face greater scrutiny of the type of business we conduct, adverse media coverage and reputational damage, which may in turn impact customer demand for our products, returns on certain business activities and the value of certain assets and trading positions resulting in impairment charges. The impacts of climate change may also increase losses for those sensitive sectors, caused by the effects of both physical and transition risks, causing loss of profitability for companies exposed to these risks and impairing their ability to repay any loans. Possible carbon pricing can affect companies’ costs and compromise their ability to generate cash flows. Any subsequent increase in defaults and rising unemployment could create recessionary pressures, which may lead to an increased deterioration in the creditworthiness of our clients, higher expected credit loss, and increased charge-offs and defaults among wholesale and retail customers. If we do not adequately embed risks associated with climate change into our risk framework to appropriately measure, manage and disclose the various financial and operational risks we face as a result of climate change, or fail to adapt our strategy and business model to the changing regulatory requirements and market expectations on a timely basis, it may have a material and adverse impact on our business growth rate, competitiveness, profitability, capital requirements, cost of funding, and financial condition. 38

4.2. Describe, on a quantitative and qualitative basis, the main market risks to which the issuer is exposed, including those related to foreign exchange and interest rate risks. a) Our definition of market risk Market risk is the possibility of losses resulting from fluctuations in the market value of positions held by a financial institution, including the risk of operations subject to variations in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, price indexes, equity and commodity prices. b) Our market risk governance Our policies and general market risk management framework are in line with the principles of CMN Resolution No. 4,557, and its subsequent amendments. These principles guide our approach to market risk control across our Itaú Unibanco Group. Our market risk management strategy is aimed at balancing corporate business goals, taking into account, among other factors: Political, economic and market conditions; The profile of our portfolio; and Capacity to act in specific markets. The key principles underlying our market risk control structure are as follows: Provide visibility and comfort for all senior management levels that market risks assumed must be in line with our risk-return objectives; Provide disciplined and informed dialogue on the overall market risk profile and its evolution over time; Increase transparency as to how the business works to optimize results; Provide early warning mechanisms to facilitate effective risk management, without obstructing the business objectives; and Monitor and avoid risk concentration. Market risk is controlled by an area independent of the business units, which is responsible for the daily activities: (i) measuring and assessing risk; (ii) monitoring stress scenarios, limits and alerts; (iii) applying, analyzing and stress testing scenarios; (iv) reporting risk to the individuals responsible in the business units, in compliance with our governance procedures; (v) monitoring the measures needed to adjust positions and/or risk levels to make them viable; and (vi) supporting the secure launch of new financial products. The CMN has regulations establishing the segregation of market risk exposure at a minimum into risk factors, such as: interest rates, exchange rates, stocks and commodities. Brazilian inflation indexes are also treated as a group of risk factors and follow the same structure. Our structure of limits and alerts follows the Board of Directors guidelines, which are reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors on an annual basis. This structure extends to specific limits and is aimed at improving the process of risk monitoring and understanding as well as preventing risk concentration. Limits and alerts are calibrated based on projections of future balance sheets, stockholders’ equity, liquidity, complexity and market volatility, as well as our risk appetite. c) Our market risk procedures and metrics In an attempt to fit the transactions into the defined limits, we hedge transactions with clients and proprietary positions, including investments overseas. Derivatives are the most commonly used instruments for carrying out these hedging activities, and can be characterized as either accounting or economic hedge, both of which are governed by our institutional regulations. 39


LOGO

Our market risk framework categorizes transactions as ‘Trading Book’ or ‘Banking Book’, in accordance with general criteria established by specific regulation. Our Trading Book is composed of all trades with financial and commodity instruments (including derivatives) undertaken with the intention of trading. Our Banking Book is predominantly characterized by portfolios originated from the banking business and operations related to balance sheet management, and intended to be either held to maturity, or sold in the medium or long term. Market risk management is based on the following key metrics: Value at Risk (VaR): a statistical metric that quantifies the maximum potential economic loss expected in normal market conditions, considering a defined holding period and confidence interval; Losses in Stress Scenarios (Stress Testing): a simulation technique to evaluate the impact, in the assets, liabilities and derivatives of the portfolio, of various risk factors in extreme market situations (based on prospective and historic scenarios); Stop Loss: metrics that trigger a management review of positions, if the accumulated losses in a given period reach specified levels; Concentration: cumulative exposure of certain financial instruments or risk factors calculated at market value (MtM - mark to market); and Stressed VaR: a statistical metric derived from VaR calculation, aimed at capturing the biggest risk in simulations of the current portfolio, taking into consideration the observable returns in historical scenarios of extreme volatility. In addition to the risk metrics described above, sensitivity and loss control measures are also analyzed. They include: Gap Analysis: accumulated exposure of cash flows by risk factor, which are marked-to-market and positioned by settlement dates; Sensitivity (DV01 – Delta Variation Risk): impact on the market value of cash flows when a one basis point change is applied to current interest rates or on the index rates; and Sensitivities to Various Risk Factors (Greek): partial derivatives of a portfolio of options on the prices of the underlying assets, implied volatilities, interest rates and time. VaR – Consolidated Itaú Unibanco Holding Our consolidated VaR is calculated through the Historical Simulation. The assumption underlying Historical Simulation is that the expected distribution for the possible gains and losses (P&Ls—Profit and Loss Statement) for a portfolio over a desired time horizon can be estimated based on the historical behavior of the returns of the market risk factors to which this portfolio is exposed. For the VaR calculation of non-linear instruments, a full re-pricing is carried out (full valuation), without any potential simplifications in the calculation. The VaR is calculated with a confidence interval of 99%, a historical period of 4 years (1000 working days) and a holding period that varies in accordance with the portfolio’s market liquidity, considering a minimum horizon of 10 working days. Also, under a conservative approach, the VaR is calculated on a daily basis with and without volatility weighting, with the final VaR being the most restrictive value between the two methodologies. As from the third quarter of 2016, we have been calculating VaR for the regulatory portfolio (exposure of the trading portfolio and exposure to foreign currency and commodities of the banking portfolio) according to internal models approved by the Central Bank. The Consolidated Total VaR table provides an analysis of our portfolio exposure to market risk. 40

Sensitivity Analyses (Trading and Banking Portfolios) As required by Brazilian regulation, we conduct sensitivity analyses for market risk factors considered important. The highest resulting losses are presented below, with impact on result, by risk factor, in each such scenario and are calculated net of tax effects, providing a view of our exposure under different circumstances. The sensitivity analyses of the Trading Portfolio and Banking Portfolio presented here are based on a static assessment of the portfolio exposure. Therefore, such analyses do not consider the dynamic response capacity of management (e.g., treasury and market risk control unit) to initiate mitigating measures, whenever a situation of high loss or risk is identified, minimizing the possibility of significant losses. In addition, the analysis is intended to assess risk exposure and the respective protective actions, taking into account the fair value of financial instruments, regardless of whether or not financial instruments are accounted for on an accrual basis.

Scenario I: Addition of one basis point to fixed interest rates, currency coupon, inflation and interest rate indexes and one percentage point to currency and equity prices; Scenario II: Shocks of 25% in fixed interest rates, currency coupon, inflation, interest rate indexes and currency and share prices, both for growth and fall, considering the largest resulting losses per risk factor; and Scenario III: Shocks of 50% in fixed interest rates, currency coupon, inflation, interest rate indexes and currency and share prices, both for growth and fall, considering the largest resulting losses per risk factor. Interest Rate Sensitivity Interest rate sensitivity is the relationship between market interest rates and net interest income arising from the maturity or the renegotiation of prices of interest-bearing assets and liabilities. Our strategy for interest rate sensitivity considers the return rates, the underlying risk level and the liquidity requirements, including our minimum regulatory cash reserves, mandatory liquidity ratios, withdrawals and maturity of deposits, capital costs and additional demand for funds. The pricing structure is matched when equal amounts of these assets or liabilities mature or are renegotiated. Any mismatch of interest-bearing assets and liabilities is known as a gap position. The interest rate sensitivity may vary in the renegotiation periods presented due to the different renegotiation dates within the period. Also, variations among the different currencies in which the interest rate positions are denominated may arise. These relationships are material for a particular date, and significant fluctuations may occur on a daily basis as a result of both market forces and management decisions. Our “CSRML” analyzes Itaú Unibanco Group’s gap position on a monthly basis and establishes limits for market risk exposure, interest rate positions and foreign currency positions. Please see “Note 32 – Risk and Capital Management, 2. Market Risk” of our audited consolidated financial statements for further details about the position of our interest-bearing assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2020. This note provides a snapshot view, and accordingly, does not reflect the interest rate gaps that may exist at other times, due to changing asset and liability positions, and management’s actions to manage risk in these changing positions. LIBOR Transition In 2018 we assembled a working group to follow up on the international financial markets discussions regarding the replacement of the IBOR rates by new reference rates. The main goal of this working group was, and still is, to support our senior executives in the decision-making process on this subject. In order to achieve that, this group is comprised of several areas of the bank, including representatives from Treasury, Risk, Accounting, Legal, Compliance, External Units, etc., and is being led by the Products team at the head office in Brazil. Among its actions over the past two years, we can highlight the following: (i) assessment of the bank’s exposure to IBORs; (ii) the amendment of fallback clauses in the contracts of assets, liabilities and derivatives transactions indexed to IBORs; (iii) monitoring and active participation in market consultations held by ISDA and the Fed with regards to new replacement rates and its methodologies; (iv) follow up reports for the Senior Management in several committees (Products, Accounting, Audit and Market Risk Committees); (v) analysis of accounting impacts and new procedures to be applied to the transactions in our portfolios, as well as monitoring any announcements of the main global accounting bodies (IASB and FASB) and participation in discussions held in specific international forums; (vi) mapping out the operational impact of the transition to the new rates; and (vii) communications to clients regarding the discontinuity of IBOR rates, in addition to discussions with foreign banks that are members of the Alternative Reference Rate Committee (ARRC) to further monitor the subject. Throughout 2020, the working group continued to follow market guidelines and acted in the implementation of previously defined action plans, including systems changes to the new rate methodologies for both new transactions and for the current portfolio, which are still pending. We have also adhered, in February 2021, to the IBOR Fallbacks Protocol of the International Swaps and 42

Derivatives Association published on October 23, 2020, which will enable market participants to incorporate the revisions into their legacy non-cleared derivatives trades with other counterparties as part of IBOR transition. The Itaú Unibanco Group will keep up with the periodic reports to Senior Management and clients whenever it deems necessary. Backtesting The effectiveness of the VaR model is validated by the use of backtesting techniques that compare hypothetical and effective daily results with the estimated daily VaR. The number of exceptions to the VaR pre-established limits should be consistent, within an acceptable margin, with the hypothesis of 99% confidence level considering a period of 250 business days. Confidence levels of 97.5% and 95%, and periods of 500 and 750 business days are also considered. The backtesting analysis presented below considers the ranges suggested by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The ranges are divided into: Green (0 to 4 exceptions): corresponds to backtesting results that do not suggest any problems with the quality or accuracy of the adopted models; Yellow (5 to 9 exceptions): refers to an intermediate range group, which indicates an early warning and/or monitoring and may indicate the need to review the model; and Red (10 or more exceptions): demonstrates the need for improvement action. According to Central Bank Circular No. 3,646, hypothetical testing consists of applying market price variations for a specific day to the portfolio balance at the end of the preceding business day. The effective test is the variation in the portfolio value up to the end of the day, including intraday transactions and excluding amounts not related to market price variations, such as fees, brokerage fees and commissions. The regulatory VaR model had two backtesting exceptions in the 250 business days ended December 31, 2020. 4.3. Describe the legal, administrative or arbitration proceedings to which the issuer or its subsidiaries are a party, specifying labor, tax and civil claims, among others: (i) that are not confidential, and (ii) that are relevant for the business of the issuer or its subsidiaries, indicating: For the purpose of this item, Itaú Unibanco adopts as materiality criteria operations with amounts higher than R$772.6 million, which represents 0.5% of the Issuer’s stockholders’ equity under IFRS (R$154,525 million on December 31, 2020). Civil, tax and labor contingencies are the subject matter of a provision whenever loss is assessed as probable. Provisions are also recorded, irrespective of the event of an unfavorable outcome to the company, for tax contingencies in which the outcome of the case depends on the recognition of unconstitutionality of legislation in force. Management believes that the provisions for legal and administrative contingencies in place are sufficient to cover probable losses and that these may be reasonably estimated. We believe that any losses arising from other administrative or legal contingencies will not have material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations. 43

Main facts: Plaintiffs seek compensation for damage allegedly incurred by the State of Paraná as a result of inaccurate evaluation of tax credits in the privatization process of Banco Banestado S.A. (Banestado), which caused this government institution to take out a loan supposedly greater than necessary to restructure the financial institution in the pre-privatization period.

Parties to the proceedings: Federal Public Prosecution Office vs Itaú Unibanco S.A., Banco Banerj S.A. (“Banerj”), State of Rio de Janeiro, and Caixa Econômica Federal e. Amounts, assets or rights involved: R$942,399,095.28 (historical amount of the “B Account” set up on June 10, 1997). f. Main facts: This is a public interest civil action involving aspects of Banerj’s privatization process. The so called “B Account” (an escrow account) was set up by means of a bank loan between Caixa Econômica Federal and the State of Rio de Janeiro in the amount of R$942,399,095.28. The purpose of the account is to ensure the refund to the purchaser of Banerj, which was awarded in lawsuits based on events that took place before the privatization closing date. In these proceedings, the Federal Public Prosecution Office seeks the partial nullity of the agreement that authorized the transfer of the amount to the “B Account”, as well as the joint obligation of the defendants to refund the amounts unduly withdrawn through allegedly unlawful procedures adopted for the settlements of labor claims filed by Banerj’s former employees. There was groundless judgment, recognizing the legality of the constitution of “Account B” and of the agreements signed, but the TRF annulled this sentence due to lack of subpoena from the Union. The Bank presented embargoes of declaration against the annulment and awaits its judgment by the TRF itself. g. Chance of loss: remote h. Analysis of impact in the event of an unfavorable decision: To refund the amounts of the labor settlements, which were paid with funds from the “B Account”, and to prevent any new withdrawals from the “B Account”. 44

Amounts, assets or rights involved: R$942,399,095.28 (historical amount of the “B Account” set up on June 10, 1997). f. Main facts: This is a public interest civil action based on an alleged administrative improbity, involving aspects of Banerj’s privatization process, related to the setup and use of the so-called “B Account” (an escrow account). In these proceedings, the plaintiffs claim that there was an undue withdrawal of funds deposited in the “B Account” through allegedly unlawful procedures adopted in labor claims filed by Banerj’s former employees (i.e. the failure to file the applicable appeals). For this reason, they request that any withdrawal from the “B Account” be previously submitted to the Finance Secretary of the State of Rio de Janeiro for approval, and demand the joint obligation of the defendants to refund the amounts unduly withdrawn and to be sentenced under the penalties set forth in the Brazilian Improbity Law (Law No. 8,429/1992), due to the administrative improbity of the charged individuals. The case was dismissed, recognizing the legality of the “B Account” set up and of the settlements signed. The TRF has ruled to uphold the judgment for defendant. This ruling was later annulled because the Public Prosecution Office was not served with notice. The TRF would retrial the case. After retrying the case, the TRF has decided to declare the judgment null due to the failure to serve the Federal Government with notice. The Bank presented embargoes of declaration against the annulment and awaits its judgment by the TRF itself. g. Chance of loss: remote h.

The Appellate Court of the State of São Paulo overturned this judgment and excluded capitalization, reducing the award amount. The plaintiff filed a motion for clarification, which was denied. The plaintiff has filed a special appeal, to which the bank has filed appellee’s brief. The TJSP admitted the appeal presented by the Author and there will be its remittance for consideration and judgment by the Superior Court of Justice. g. Chance of loss: remote h.

Amounts, assets or rights involved: R$6,425,864,693.73 (December 2020). f. Main facts: Itaú is a defendant in two lawsuits filed by Mr. Antonio Cabral (later succeeded by Rondhvea Adm. e Participações). Itaú allegedly sold 6,360 shares issued by Itaú and 5,000 shares issued by Banco União Comercial (succeeded by Itaú) in 1985, without the plaintiff’s authorization. In a final and unappealable decision, Itaú was ordered to compensate the plaintiff in an amount corresponding to shares and respective accessory obligations. Upon calculating the number of shares, the expert appraiser disregarded the reverse split of shares as set forth by CVM Instruction No. 56/87, which took place in March 1987, at 1,000 to 1 share, and thus determined the value of R$4 billion. Although the expert appraisal report was approved, the Appellate Court has suspended this decision and now the process awaits the calculation of the effectively due amounts to be completed. Also pending is the trial of claims by the Bank at the Disciplinary Board of Courts, the National Council of Justice (CNJ), in addition to the trial of a motion to recuse the judge. Itaú has deposited in court the amount it understands as due, which corresponds to the price of shares and accessory obligations, considering the reverse split in March 1987 (R$895,004.60 – October 2020). g. Chance of loss: Probable (R$957,125.77) and Remote (R$6,424,907,567.96) h.

The motion to stay execution filed by the Bank, which challenges the place where the service was provided, the calculation basis, and the fact that amounts due were paid to the municipality in which the Bank has its head office (municipality of Poá/State of São Paulo), was denied. The Appellate Court of the State of São Paulo (TJSP) granted the appeal filed by the Bank to annul the appealed judgment due to the denial of a fair opportunity to be heard (final and unapeallable decision on June 16, 2014). The case was remanded to the original court so that the expert evidence required by the Bank be produced and a new judgment be rendered. Expert evidence submitted. Waiting decision. b.

Indicate the total amount provided for, if any, for the lawsuits described in item 4.6 The Issuer is not a party to any repetitive or related legal, administrative or arbitration proceedings that are collectively significant. In the normal course of business, the Issuer’s subsidiaries are party to legal and administrative proceedings that are collectively significant and whose types of contingency are detailed in the table below: R$ million AREA AMOUNT PROVIDED FOR TYPE OF CONTINGENCY Labor 8,015 Contingencies are related to individual or collective lawsuits in which alleged labor rights based on labor legislation specific to the related profession are discussed, such as overtime, salary equalization, reinstatement, and transfer allowances. Civil 3,511 Civil contingencies are usually related to demands related to the revision of contracts and compensation for damage and pain and suffering, in addition to specific lawsuits for the collection of understated inflation adjustment for savings accounts in connection with economic plans implemented in the 1980s and 1990s as a measure to combat inflation1. Tax2 6,603 Tax provisions are related to lawsuits in which we discuss the legality and unconstitutionality of legislation in force. These lawsuits, which the conglomerate classifies as legal liabilities, refer particularly to challenges to the calculation basis of PIS and COFINS contributions. The conglomerate is also a party to tax and social security lawsuits classified as contingent liabilities, which likelihood of loss is classified as probable, with main discussions about the non-levy of social security contributions on profit sharing and of tax service (ISS) on certain revenues. 1 Although ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING has complied with the rules then in effect, the company is a defendant in lawsuits filed by individuals that address this topic, as well as in class actions filed by: (i) consumer protection associations; and (ii) the Public Prosecution Office on behalf of savings account holders. With respect to these lawsuits, ITAÚ UNIBANCO HOLDING recognizes provisions when it is summoned and also when individuals apply to enforce the decision rendered by the Judicial Branch, using the same criteria adopted to determine provisions for individual lawsuits. The Federal Supreme Court (STF) has issued a number of decisions favorable to savings account holders, but has not consolidated its understanding regarding the constitutionality of economic plans and its applicability to savings accounts. The ruling of appeals involving this matter is currently suspended by the STF, until it hands down a final ruling on the rights under discussion. In December 2017, through mediation of the Federal Attorney’s Office (AGU) and supervised by the Central Bank of Brazil, savers (represented by two civil associations, FEBRAPO and IDEC) and FEBRABAN entered into an instrument of agreement aimed at settling lawsuits related to economic plans, and Itaú has already adhered to its terms. Said agreement was approved on March 1, 2018 by the Plenary Session of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) and, as from May 22, 2018, savers may adhere to its terms for a 24-month period, with the subsequent settlement of lawsuits. As this period has come to an end, the parties have entered into an amendment to the agreement to extend the adherence period so that a larger number of savers can join in and, as a result, the number of lawsuits ultimately settled increases. In May 2020, STF approved this amendment and granted a thirty (30) month period for new adherences, and this period may be extended for other thirty (30) months, conditioned on the accountability of the number of adherences over the first period. 2 The amounts provided for in connection with the tax contingencies stated herein do not include amounts for the cases with probable likelihood of loss already stated in item 4.3 of this Form. 4.7. Describe other significant contingencies that are not included in the previous items No amounts involved in tax and social security lawsuits whose likelihood of loss is possible are provided for. The amounts involved in key tax and social security lawsuits whose likelihood of loss is possible, whose total risk is estimated at R$31,330 million, are as follows: 56

Other risks Description Insurance, pension plan and premium bond risks Products that make up the portfolios of our insurance companies are related to life and property and casualty insurance lines, as well as pension plans and premium bonds. Accordingly, we understand that the main risks inherent in these products are as follows: Underwriting risk, that is, the possibility of losses arising from insurance products, pension plans and premium bonds that go against our expectations, directly or indirectly associated with technical and actuarial bases used for calculating premiums, contributions and technical provisions; Market risk; Credit risk; Operational risk; and Liquidity risk.

Instruments used for hedging purposes Undertaking and managing risks is one of our activities and to this end we must have well-established risk management objectives.

These processes are in line with the guidelines of the Board of Directors and Executives who, through corporate bodies, define global objectives that are translated into targets and thresholds for the business units that manage risks. Control and capital 59

management units, in turn, support our management through capital and risk monitoring and analysis processes. The principles that provide the risk management and risk appetite foundations, as well as guidelines on how our employees should act in relation to their daily decision-making, are as follows: Sustainability and customer satisfaction: Our vision is to be a leading bank in sustainable performance and customer satisfaction, and therefore we are concerned about creating shared value for employees, customers, stockholders and society to ensure business continuity. Itaú Unibanco is engaged in doing only business that is good for customers and for the institution; Risk culture: Our risk culture goes beyond policies, procedures and processes, as it strengths the individual and collective responsibility of all our employees to manage and mitigate risks consciously, respecting the ethical way of doing business; Risk pricing: We operate and assume risks in business that we know and understand, and we avoid those that are unknown or do not provide competitive edge, as we carefully assess risk-return ratios; Diversification: We have low appetite for volatility in results and, accordingly, operate with a diversified base of customers, products and business, seeking risk diversification and giving priority to low-risk transactions; Operational excellence: We want to be a agile bank, with a robust and stable infrastructure in order to offer prime quality services; Ethics and respect to regulation: At Itaú Unibanco, ethics is non-negotiable and, for this reason, we promote an institutional environment of integrity, guiding our employees to cultivate ethics in relationships and in business, as well as respecting rules and looking after our reputation. The CMN Resolution 4,557/2017, which provides for the structure of risk and capital management framework, with which we must comply, highlights the implementation of a continuous and integrated risk management framework, the requirements for defining the Risk Appetite Statement (RAS), and the stress test program, the constitution of a Risk Committee and the appointment, before BACEN, of the Risk Management Officer (CRO), with the attribution of roles responsibilities and independence requirements. Our risk appetite establishes the types and levels of risk acceptable to us. 60

In addition to the adoption of risk management, risk appetite and risk culture principles, we describe below the procedures used specifically to protect against the risks mentioned in item 5.1.b.i) above. Credit Risk The key assignments of the business units are (i) monitoring the portfolios under their responsibility, (ii) granting credit, considering approval levels, market conditions, macroeconomic prospects, changes in markets and products, and (iii) credit risk management aimed at making the business sustainable. Our credit policy is based on internal factors, such as: client rating criteria, performance and evolution of our portfolio, default levels, return rates and allocated economic capital, among others; and also takes into account external factors such as: interest rates, market default indicators, inflation and changes in consumption, among others. With respect to our individuals, small and medium companies, credit ratings are assigned based on statistical models (in the early stages of our relationship with a customer) and behavior score models (used for customers with whom we already have a relationship). For large companies, classification is based on information such as the counterparty’s economic and financial situation, its cash-generating capacity, and the business group to which it belongs, the current and prospective situation of the economic sector in which it operates. Credit proposals are analyzed on a case-by-case basis through the approval governance. The concentrations are continuously monitored for economic sectors, and largest debtors, allowing preventive measures to be taken to avoid the violation of the established limits. We also strictly control our credit exposure to clients and counterparties, acting to reverse occasional limit breaches. We may use contractual covenants for these purposes, such as the right to demand early payment or require additional collateral. To measure credit risk, we take into account the probability of default by the borrower, issuer or counterparty, the estimated amount of exposure in the event of default, past losses from default and concentration of borrowers. Quantifying these risk components is part of the lending process, portfolio management and definition of limits. 61

The models used by us are independently validated, to ensure that the databases used in constructing the models are complete and accurate, and that the method of estimating parameters is adequate, so as to reduce the modeling risk and keep the models calibrated, so that they reflect risk parameters more accurately. In compliance with the principles of the CMN Resolution 3,721, our credit risk management structure and institutional policy are approved by our Board of Directors and are applicable to all companies and subsidiaries in Brazil and abroad. Loan Approval Process Extensions of credit are approved based on policies at the business unit level, determined in accordance with the criteria of each department and our bank’s risk appetite. The decision to extend credit may be granted by means of a pre-approval process or the traditional approval mechanism, which is applied on a client by client basis. In both cases, decisions are made based on principles of credit quality such as credit rating supported by statistical models, percentage of income committed by/leverage of the client and credit restrictions determined by us and the market. The business units prepare and maintain the policies and procedures of the credit cycle. The credit granting process contemplates the use of credit protection services with the purpose of checking whether a client’s credit history includes information that could be considered an obstacle to granting a loan, such as assets blocked by court orders, invalid tax payer identification numbers, prior or pending debt restructuring or renegotiation processes and checks not honored due to insufficient funds. The policy assessment process allows for the identification of potential risks and is intended to ensure that credit decisions make sense from both an economic and a risk perspective.

Foreign units Individual Assessment based on: Internal credit score to define limit Documentation: Client’s signature Personal identification Proof of income Foreign units Corporate Assessment based on: Economic and financial analysis of the client Credit granting in our subsidiaries operating outside Brazil follows the same corporate governance and policies described before. The Chief Risk Officer of each subsidiary is responsible for its own credit portfolio. Credit policies, as well as credit approvals are managed by the subsidiary up to a certain approval authority level, determined by the holding company, according to the characteristics of each subsidiary. The subsidiaries’ credit portfolios and certain polices are monitored by the Holding Company, ensuring proper consistency throughout the Group.

Operational Risk Operational risk management includes conduct risk, which is subject to mitigating procedures to assess product design (suitability) and incentive models. The inspection area is responsible for fraud prevention. Irrespective of their origin, specific cases may be handled by risk committees and integrity and ethics committees. We have a governance process that is structured through forums and corporate bodies composed of senior management, which report to the Board of Directors, with well-defined roles and responsibilities in order to segregate the business and management and control activities, ensuring independence between the areas and, consequently, well-balanced decisions with respect to risks. This is reflected in the risk management process carried out on a decentralized basis under the responsibility of the business areas and by a centralized control carried out by the internal control compliance and operational risk department, by means of methodologies, training courses, certification and monitoring of the control environment in an independent way. The managers of the executive areas use corporate methods constructed and made available by the internal control, compliance and operational risk area. Among the methodologies and tools used are the self-evaluation and the map of our prioritized risks, the approval of processes, products, and system development products and projects, the monitoring of key risk indicators and the database of operational losses, guaranteeing a single conceptual basis for managing processes, systems, projects and new products and services. Within the governance of the risk management process, the consolidated reports on risk monitoring, controls, action plans and operational losses are regularly presented to the business area executives. 63

Procedures and Key Indicators Crisis Management and Business Continuity The purpose of our Business Continuity Program is to protect our employees, ensure the continuity of the critical functions of our business lines, safeguard revenue and sustain both a stable financial market in which we operate and the trust of our clients and strategic partners in providing our services and products. Our Business Continuity Program is composed of procedures for relocating and/or recovering operations in response to a variety of interruption levels and can be divided into four key elements: Disaster Recovery Plan: focused on the recovery of our primary data center, ensuring the continuity of the processing of critical systems within minimum pre-established periods; Workplace Contingency Plan: employees responsible for carrying out critical business functions have alternative facilities from which to perform their activities in the event the buildings in which they usually work become unavailable. There are approximately 187 contingency dedicated seats that are fully equipped to meet the needs of critical business units with some technical dependency and the major part are performed from remote work (home office) in emergency situations; Emergency Plan: procedures aimed at minimizing the effects of emergency situations that may impact our facilities, with a preventive focus; and Processes Contingency Plan: alternatives (Plan B) to carry out the critical processes identified in the business areas. In order to keep the continuity solutions aligned with the business requirements the program applies the following tools to understand the institution: Business Impact Analysis (BIA): evaluates the criticality and resumption requirement of the processes that support the delivery of products and services. Through this analysis the businesses’ resumption priorities are defined; and Threats and Vulnerabilities Analysis (AVA): identification of threats to the locations where our buildings are located. In addition, we have a corporate-wide Crisis Management Program, which is aimed at managing business interruption events, natural disasters, impacts of an environmental, social, and infrastructural/operational (including information technology) nature or of any other nature that jeopardize the image and reputation and/or viability of Itaú Unibanco’s processes with its employees, clients, strategic partners and regulators, with timely and integrated responses. Our Corporate Business Continuity Policy is available at our Investor Relations website > www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Policies. Liquidity Risk Our liquidity risk control is managed by an independent area and is responsible for determining the composition of our reserve, estimating cash flow and exposure to liquidity risk over several time horizons, and monitoring the minimum limits of the risk appetite in countries in which we operate. All activities are subject to assessment by an independent validation, internal controls and audit departments. Procedures and Key Indicators In accordance with the requirements of Central Bank regulations, we report monthly our Liquidity Risk Statements (DLR and DLP). Besides, the following items are periodically produced and submitted to the senior management for monitoring and decision support: 64

Different scenarios for liquidity projections to decision support, also using stressed macroeconomics scenarios and reversed stress according to risk appetite; Contingency plans for potential crisis, which contains procedures ordered by levels of execution, considering each countries’ characteristics; Reports of risk indicators; and Tracking, and monitoring of funding sources considering counterparty type, maturity and other aspects, considering the risk appetite. Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR)1 Our average liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) as of December 31, 2020 was 194.6 above the minimum limit of 100%, according to Central Bank regulations, effective as of January 1, 2019. Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR)2 As of December 2018, the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) started to be released, which closed the year of 2020 at 126.0%, above the minimum limit of 100%, according to Central Bank regulations, effective as of October 1, 2018. Market Risk In an attempt to fit the transactions into the defined limits, we hedge transactions with clients and proprietary positions, including investments overseas. Derivatives are the most commonly used instruments for carrying out these hedging activities, and can be characterized as either accounting or economic hedge, both of which are governed by our institutional regulations. Additional information regarding market risk protection instruments are described in item 5.2.b.iii) of this Reference Form. Other Risks Business and Strategy Risk We have implemented many mechanisms to ensure that both the business and the strategic decision-making processes follow proper governance standards, have the active participation of executives and the Board of Directors, are based on market, macroeconomic and risk information and are aimed at optimizing the risk-return ratio. Decision-making and the establishment of business and strategy guidelines, count on the full engagement of the Board of Directors, primarily through the Strategy Committee, and of the executives, through the Executive Committee. In order to handle risk adequately, we have governance and processes that involve the Risks and Finance Area in business and strategy decisions, so as to ensure that risk is managed and decisions are sustainable in the long term. They are: (i) the qualifications and incentives of board members and executives; (ii) the budgetary process; (iii) product assessment; (iv) the evaluation and prospecting of proprietary mergers and acquisitions; and (v) a risk appetite framework which, for example, restricts the concentration of credit and exposure to specific and material risks. Regulatory or Compliance Risk The regulatory or compliance risk is managed through a structured process aimed at identifying changes in the regulatory environment, analyzing their impacts on the institution and monitoring the implementation of actions directed at adherence to the regulatory requirements. This structured process includes the following actions: (i) to understand the changes in the regulatory environment; (ii) to monitor regulatory trends; (iii) to care for the relationship between the institution and the regulator, self-regulatory bodies and the representation entity; (iv) to monitor action plans on regulatory or self-regulatory compliance; (v) to coordinate a program to comply with significant norms, such as integrity and 1 The LCR measures the short-term resistance of a bank’s liquidity risk profile. It is the ratio of the stock of high-quality liquid assets to expected net cash outflows over the next 30 days, assuming a scenario of idiosyncratic or systemic liquidity stress. We calculate our LCR according to the methodology established in Central Bank Circular No. 3,749/2015. We measure our total high liquidity assets for the end of each period to cash outflows and inflows as the daily average value for each period. We have diversified sources of funds, with a significant portion coming from the retail segment. The main sources resources are deposits, savings, issuance of bonds and acceptance resources. 2 The NSFR measures long-term liquidity risk. It is the ratio of available stable funding to required stable funding over a one-year time period, assuming a stressed scenario. We calculate our NSFR according to the methodology established in Central Bank Circular No. 3,869/2017. The NSFR corresponds to the ratio of our available stable funds (ASF) for the end of each period to our required stable funds (RSF) for the end of each period. 65

ethics; and (vi) to report regulatory issues in operational and compliance risk forums, according to the structure of committees established in internal policies. Insurance Products, Pension Plan and Premium Bonds Risks In line with domestic and international practices, we have a risk management structure which ensures that risks resulting from insurance, pension and special savings products are properly assessed and reported to the relevant forums. The process of risk management for insurance, pensions and premium bond plans is independent and focuses on the special nature of each risk. As part of the risk management process, there is a governance structure where decisions may be escalated to sub-committees, thus ensuring compliance with several regulatory and internal requirements, as well as balanced decisions relative to risks. Our objective is to ensure that assets serving as collateral for long-term products, with guaranteed minimum returns, are managed according to the characteristics of the liabilities, so that they are actuarially balanced and solvent over the long term. Model Risk The use of models can lead to decisions that are more accurate and therefore it is a major practice. The models have supported strategic decisions in several contexts, such as credit approval, pricing, volatility curve estimation, calculation of capital, among others. Due to the increasing use of models, driven by the application of new technologies and the expansion of data use, we have improved our governance in relation to the development and monitoring, through the definition of guidelines, policies and procedures aimed at assuring the quality and mitigation of the associated risks. Contagion Risk Contagion Risk is the possibility of losses occurring for entities that are part of the Itaú Unibanco Group as a result of financial support to unconsolidated entities, in a stressful situation, in the absence or in addition to the obligations provided for in the contract. We have a structure for risk management and control, a dedicated team and a policy that defines roles and responsibilities. This structure covers (i) the identification of entities in relation to the potential generation of contagion risk, (ii) the assessment of risks in relationships, (iii) the monitoring, control and mitigation of contagion risk, (iv) the assessment of impact on capital and liquidity and (v) reports. It is part of the scope of contagion risk governance: related party audiences, mainly composed of controllers, controlled and related entities (as defined in Central Bank Resolution No. 4,693/18), and investments in non-consolidated entities, suppliers of critical products and services, buyers and sellers of relevant assets, third parties with products distributed by us and third parties to whom we distribute products. Cybersecurity Management and Processes We consider cybersecurity and information security at the highest strategic level. Our Information Security department contributes to the security pillar by handling information and data. The purpose of this department is to safeguard our data and that of our clients and preserve the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of information, thus mitigating financial losses and reputational risk. Our cybersecurity information strategy is designed to prevent security incidents, minimize unavailability, protect integrity and prevent data leakage. It is based on strict control processes aimed at preventing, detecting, and immediately responding to attacks and attempts to hack our infrastructure, thus ensuring the security risk is managed and a safe foundation is built for an increasingly digital future. The information security strategy has been developed considering the global scenario, regulations and best practices and standards, in order to focus on establishing data protection for our customers. Our organization also maintains an effective security governance through executive committees and a set of information security policies. 66

Our infrastructure defenses are structured to protect our organization against external and internal attacks, with tools such as network behavioral analysis, intrusion prevention systems (IPS), firewalls, antiviruses and antispam systems. In order to reach this purpose, we use the strategy of protecting an expanded perimeter. Under this concept, information must be protected regardless of where it is located, within the bank infrastructure, in a cloud provider, at a third party or a foreign unit. This strategy also considers the entire information lifecycle, from collection to processing, transmission, storage, analysis and destruction. We have a specialized monitoring team, capable of identifying potential threats and establishing an active and effective defense (SOC — Security Operational Centers). Additionally, we have a cyber-intelligence team working to identify threats and manage any necessary counter measures. In order to be successful in our information security defense strategy, we consider the culture of security as the basis to improve our information security program as well as the investment in awareness campaigns for employees and customers, so they remain prepared to identify and address inherent risks and threats. Environmental and Social Risk Environmental and social risk mitigation actions are carried out through mapping of processes, risks and controls, monitoring of new rules related to the theme and recording of occurrences in internal systems. In addition to identification, the stages of prioritization, risk response, monitoring and reporting of the assessed risks complement the management of this risk at Itaú Unibanco. Governance for climate-related risks is embedded into our existing governance structure and is complementary to governance of our sustainability strategy. Our Sustainability and Social Environmental Responsibility Policy (PRSA) is available on our Investor Relations website. Environmental and social risk management is carried out by our business areas (i.e. first line of defense), which carry out the management in their daily activities, following the guidelines of PRSA, specific manuals and procedures, with specialized support and evaluation by dedicated technical teams located in the Corporate Compliance, Credit Risk and Modeling and Institutional Legal teams, which act in an integrated manner in the management of all dimensions of Social and Environment Risk linked to the activities of the conglomerate. As an example of specific guidelines for the management of this risk, the governance for approval of new products and services applicable to our business units include environmental and social risk in their assessment, ensuring compliance with this requirement in the process of approving new products as well as with specific environmental and social processes applicable to our operations (equity, branch infrastructure and technology), suppliers, credit, investments and key subsidiaries. The second line of defense, in turn, is represented by Credit and Modeling Risk, by Internal Controls, and by Compliance, through the Corporate Social and Environmental Risk Management, which supports and guarantees the governance of the activities of the first line. The third line of defense, composed of Internal Audit, acts independently, carrying out the mapping and assessment of risk management, controls and governance. The governance of Environmental and Social Risk also counts on the Environmental and Social Committee, whose main role is to evaluate and deliberate on institutional and strategic matters, as well as deliberate on products, operations, services, among others that involve the theme of environmental and social risk, including Climate Risk as climate change also poses relevant risks for the whole financial system. Climate risks encompass both physical risks, arising from changes in climate patterns such as rainfalls and temperature rise and extreme weather events; and transition risks arising from economic shifts occurred as a consequence of climate action such as carbon pricing, climate regulation, market risks and reputation risks. Given its relevance, climate risk has become one of our main priorities: we have supported the TCFD since 2017 and we are committed to implementing its recommendations by 2022. With this objective we are strengthening our climate risk governance and strategy and developing tools and methodologies to assess and manage climate risks. Given the growing importance of an integrated approach for environmental and social risk management, in 2019, we increased our governance creating a new structure under the Compliance department: the Corporate Environmental and Social Risk Management unit. Such area has the mandate to strengthen the environmental and social risk governance, counsel on related matters, and to lead integrated reports to the high management. 67

We consistently pursue to evolve in environmental and social risk management, always attentive to challenges including those arising from regulations and from a changing stakeholders’ expectations. We have assumed and incorporated several national and international voluntary commitments into our governance aiming at continuously improving our integrated environmental and social risk management. We have committed with the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB), the Charter for Human Rights – Ethos, Equator Principles (EP), Global Impact, Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), Brazilian GHG Protocol Program, National Pact for Eradicating Slave Labor (Pacto Nacional para Erradicação do Trabalho Escravo), among others. Our efforts to increase knowledge and governance of environmental and social risk have been recognized in Brazil and abroad, as shown by our recurring presence in sustainability indexes, such as Dow Jones Sustainability Index, Euronext Vigeo – Emerging 70, and in B3’s Corporate Sustainability Index, as well as numerous prizes and recognitions which we have been awarded. Country Risk We have a specific structure for the management and control of country risk, consisting of corporate bodies and dedicated teams, with responsibilities defined in policies. The institution has a structured and consistent procedure for managing and controlling country risk, including: (i) the establishment of country ratings; (ii) the determination of limits for countries; and (iii) the monitoring of limits. Reputational Risk We believe that our reputation is extremely important for achieving our long-term goals. As a result, we strive to align our speech with ethical and transparent practices and work, which is essential to raise the confidence of our stakeholders. Our reputation depends on our strategy (vision, culture and skills) and derives from direct and indirect relationship between us and our stakeholders. Since reputational risk directly or indirectly permeates all of our operations and processes, we have governance procedures that are structured in a way to ensure that potential reputational risks be identified, analyzed and managed in the initial phases of our operations and the analysis of new products. The treatment given to reputational risk is structured by means of many processes and internal initiatives, which, in turn, are supported by our internal policies. Their main purpose is to provide mechanisms for the monitoring, management, control and mitigation of the main reputational risks. Among those processes and internal initiatives are (i) risk appetite statement; (ii) processes to prevent and combat the use of Itaú Unibanco in unlawful acts; (iii) crisis management processes and business continuity procedures; (iv) processes and guidelines with respect to governmental and institutional relations; (v) corporate communication processes; (vi) brand management processes; (vii) ombudsman offices initiatives and commitment to customer satisfaction; and (viii) ethics and corruption prevention guidelines. Money Laundering Prevention Financial institutions play a key role in preventing and fighting illicit acts, which includes money laundering, terrorism financing and fraud. The challenge is to identify and prevent increasingly sophisticated operations that seek to conceal the source, ownership and transfer of goods and assets, derived from illegal activities. We have established a corporate policy to prevent our involvement in illicit activities, protecting our reputation and image among employees, customers, strategic partners, suppliers, service providers, regulators and the society. Our policy is based on a governance structure focused on transparency, strict compliance with the rules and regulations and cooperation with enforcement and judicial authorities. We also strive to conduct our business in accordance with the local and international best practices to prevent and fight illicit acts, through investments and training our employees on an ongoing basis. In order to comply with our corporate policy, we have established a program to prevent and fight illicit acts, which includes the following pillars: Policies and Procedures; Customer Identification Process; 68


LOGO

Know Your Customer - KYC; Know Your Partner - KYP; Know Your Supplier - KYS; Know Your Employee - KYE; Evaluation of New Products and Services; Sanctions Compliance; Monitoring, Selection and Analysis pf Suspicious Operations or Situations Reporting Suspicious Transactions to Regulators and Authorities; and Training. This program is applicable to us and our entities in Brazil and abroad. The oversight of prevention and detection of illegal activities is carried out by the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee, Compliance and Operational Risk Committees, Risks and Capital Management Committee and the Anti-Money Laundering Committee. Our Illicit Acts Prevention and Combat Corporate Policy is available on our Investors Relation website. Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) Our commitment to compliance with applicable law and to the adoption of the best practices for prevention and detection of money laundering activity is also reflected in the identification, assessment and monitoring of PEPs, whether as individuals or entities. As per our policies, we conduct enhanced due diligence with respect to PEPs, in line with our risk-based approach. We require a higher level of approval prior to establishing any relationship with a PEP. COVID-19 Itaú Unibanco Holding monitors the economic effects of this COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil and the other countries where it operates, which may adversely affect its Profit or Loss. At the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Institutional Crisis Management Committee was set up. The Executive Committee established an intensified agenda to manage the crisis, which is responsible for the monitoring the pandemic and its impacts on its operations, in addition to the government actions to mitigate the effects of this pandemic. During this unprecedented health crisis, we are committed to reducing the transmission of COVID-19 not only at our facilities, but throughout the country and in the countries in which we operate, as we are aware of the importance of preventing the collapse of public health systems and private. iii. risk management organizational structure Our risk management organizational structure complies with Brazilian and applicable international regulations currently in place and is aligned with best market practices. There is a structure in place for coordination and consolidation of information and related processes, which are all subject to verification by independent validation, internal controls and audit areas. The following committees are part of our risk and capital management governance structure: 69

Risk governance at foreign subsidiaries Our foreign subsidiaries follow the risk management and governance model established by the holding in its policies and guidelines, keeping an effective flow of information on risk levels between headquarters and each subsidiary and alignment of strategies for maintaining such risks at an acceptable level. To ensure the continuous improvement of the units in risk management and controls, a maturity program was established, comprising the definition and periodic assessment of best practices of risk management and controlling conducted in each location as also the supervision and governance activities performed by the holding. The proximity in the monitoring of our units allows us to better understand the peculiarities of each country and region where we do business with and to quickly adapt to changes in different regulatory, social, and economic environments where we operate, even in stress scenarios as observed with COVID-19 pandemic. In this regard, there was an increase of volume and frequency of information shared between units and holding when related to customers and employees’ safety and well-being preservation, the availability of banking channels, products and services, the regulatory changes instituted in different countries and their impacts in the units. Finally, advances in actions to strengthen the Risk Culture on abroad subsidiaries have fostered individual and collective responsibilities of all our employees, empowering them to do the right thing, at the right time, and in the right way respecting the ethical and sustainable way of doing business. Internal Audit The Internal Audit Department is subordinated, at the administrative level, to the Chairmen of the Board of Directors of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. Its activities are supervised by the Audit Committee of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. The Internal Audit representation offices located in Foreign Units report, at a technical level, to the Executive Audit Office of Itaú Unibanco S.A., and their activities are supervised by the Audit Committee of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A., as well as by local Audit Committees. The internal audit activities carried out and the use of the name “internal audit” in the Conglomerate are exclusive to Itaú Unibanco’s Executive Audit Board. The Internal Audit Department adopts a proprietary methodology mandatory for the Conglomerate’s all Internal Audit units. This methodology is in line with the international standards for the internal auditor’s profession disclosed by The Institute of Internal Auditors (The IIA). Every time this methodology is revised, changes are submitted for approval from the Executive Audit Office and the Audit Committee. The Internal Audit Department will report any noncompliance with standards to the Audit Committee. The Internal Audit Department has an agenda to report to the Governance, which includes meetings with the Audit Committee, Executive Committee, Board Chairmanship, and the Board of Directors. c) The adequacy of operating structure and internal controls to verify the effectiveness of the policy adopted The structure adopted is adequate and able to monitor market risks in accordance with policies set and the risk appetite statement. The integrated management of operational risk, internal controls and compliance is structured in three lines of defense: 1st line: represented by the business and back office areas, it is responsible for identifying, measuring, assessing, understanding and managing events of operational risk, as well as keeping an effective control environment (including compliance with internal and external rules). 2nd line: represented by the independent internal controls/validation department, its responsibilities include disclosing and ensuring the application of decisions, policies and strategies with respect to operational risk management, as well as validating policies and processes on an independent basis. 3rd line: represented by the Internal Audit department, it is responsible, among others, for independently and periodically verifying the adequacy of risk identification and management processes and procedures. 72

The activities of the second line of defense are carried out by the Internal Controls, Compliance and Operational Risk department, which is structurally segregated from the business and back office departments, thus ensuring its independence. Furthermore, the second line of defense validates the process focused on identifying, measuring, assessing, monitoring and responding to the organization’s operational risks, thus ensuring that any losses and risks are kept within the limits set by the institution. In the face of the COVID 19 pandemic, this risk management model is being put to the test and giving us the certainty that our risk governance structure allows us to face the current serious crisis scenario. 5.2. With respect to the market risks indicated in item 4.2, please inform: a) whether the issuer has a formal market risk management policy, informing, if so, the approving body and the date of approval, and, if not, the reasons why the issuer has not adopted such a policy Our institutional market risk management policy is a set of principles contained in CMN (National Monetary Council) regulations applicable to all business units and legal entities of the Itaú Unibanco Group. Our market risk management process is subject to the governance and hierarchy of committees, with specific limits assigned to different portfolios and levels (e.g., Banking Portfolio, Trading Portfolio) and some types of market risk (such as interest rate and foreign exchange risks). Daily risk reports, used by the business and control departments, are also sent to senior management. In addition, the market risk control and management process is submitted to periodic reviews. Our market risk control framework is responsible for: providing visibility and assurance for all senior management levels that market risks assumed are in line with our risk-return objectives; promoting a disciplined and informed dialogue about the overall market risk profile and its evolution over time; increasing transparency as to how the business seeks to optimize results; providing early warning mechanisms to facilitate effective risk management, without obstructing business objectives; and monitoring and preventing risk concentration. The market risk is controlled by a department independent from the business units and that is responsible for performing the daily activities of (i) risk measurement and assessment; (ii) monitoring stress scenarios, limits and warnings; (iii) application of stress scenarios, and related analysis and tests; (iv) reporting risk findings to the in-charge individuals within the relevant business units in accordance with our governance requirements; (v) monitoring any necessary actions to adjust risk positions and/or levels to make them viable; and (vi) providing support for the launch of new financial products. To this end, we have a structured communication and information flow process that provides information to our Superior Committees and monitors compliance with the requirements of Brazilian and foreign regulatory agencies. Our structure of limits and warnings follows the Board of Directors’ guidelines and is approved by the Superior Market and Liquidity Risk Committee (CSRML) or proper authority level, which meets at least once a month. This structure promotes control effectiveness and coverage and is reviewed at least annually. It maps from aggregated risk indicators (portfolio levels) to granular limits (individual desk levels). The structure of market risk limits extends to the risk factor level, with specific limits aimed at improving risk monitoring and 73


LOGO

understanding, as well as at avoiding risk concentration. These limits are determined based on projected balance sheet results, size of stockholders’ equity, liquidity, market complexity and volatility, and our risk appetite. The process of setting these limit levels and breach reporting follows the governance of approval from our financial conglomerate’s institutional policies. The information flow aims at providing information for the organization’s several executive levels, including Board of Directors members through the CGRC, which meets every two months. Risk limits are monitored daily and any excess and potential breaches of limits are reported and discussed at proper authority levels: Within one business day, to the management of the relevant business units and the risk control department and business unit executives; and Within one month, to the Superior Market and Liquidity Risk Committee (CSRML) whenever this is the proper authority level. Market risk management is governed by the internal policies below, approved by the respective proper bodies: Reference Policy Revised on PS-17 MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL POLICY (GLOBAL) 11/17/2020 RG-23 CLASSIFICATION OF OPERATIONS 05/16/2020 PR-100 DATABASE OF MARKET AND LIQUIDITY RISKS, RESULTS AND OPERATIONS (BRAZIL) 04/25/2020 PR-97 MARKET RISK LIMIT MANAGEMENT (GLOBAL) 03/01/2021 PR-121 PRICING PROCESS (GLOBAL) 03/01/2021 PR-122 MARKET RISK BACKTESTING TESTING (GLOBAL) 03/03/2020 PR-98 MARKET RISK STRESS TESTING (GLOBAL) 02/20/2020 PR-55 PREPARATION OF MARKET RISK MODELS 10/03/2020 PR-123 PRUDENTIAL ADJUSTMENTS CALCULATION PROCESS (GLOBAL) 06/09/2020 PR-126 MARKET RISK CONTROL PROCEDURES FOR TREASURY (GLOBAL) 09/03/2020 PR-123 EFFECTIVENESS OF ECONOMIC HEDGING OF FOREIGN INVESTMENTS (BRAZIL) 06/09/2020 PR-124 MARKET RISK STATEMENT (GLOBAL) 06/09/2020 PR-47 GOVERNANCE INTERNAL MARKET RISK MODELS (BRAZIL) 12/08/2020 Approval authority levels; CN – Policies Committee and the Board of Directors, for PS/RG reference code policies.

b) the objectives and strategies of the market risk management policy, if any, including: i. the market risks that are intended to be hedged Hedges are mainly used against risks posed by fluctuations in interest, inflation and foreign exchange rates. ii. the equity hedging strategy The hedging strategy is aimed at adjusting income from foreign exchange variation after taxes on foreign investments (accounting basis) and its hedges. An economic hedge is composed of positions aimed at hedging income from foreign exchange variation on foreign investments. Economic hedges may be traded on derivative stock or over-the-counter markets and through foreign currency liabilities. Market risk management is aimed at mapping and controlling risks of mismatches. The Market and Liquidity Risk Control Office is responsible for mapping, calculating and informing market risks and mismatching of terms, currencies and indices, as well as the use of limits approved by proper committees or authorities. The Treasury Department carries out hedging transactions to mitigate and manage risks of mismatches, complying with the limits of exposure and risks approved by the proper committees or authorities. For managing these risks, it analyzes the information received and economic data for hedging purposes. The so-called hedge accounting derivatives are monitored based on their effectiveness and accounting impacts. iii. equity hedging instruments When required, the Issuer operates in the market with derivative financial instruments. The Bank uses a number of financial instruments for risk management, which include securities and derivatives traded over the counter or on stock exchanges. Derivatives mainly include: Interest rate and foreign exchange futures contracts; Non-Deliverable Forward – NDF; Interest rate and foreign exchange swap contracts; and Options. Transactions with derivative financial instruments are classified in accordance with their characteristics: risk management or cash flow hedging. iv. risk management parameters Risk management parameters used by the Issuer include market risk measures, such as: Value at Risk (VaR): a statistical measure that quantifies potential economic losses expected in normal market conditions, considering a defined holding period and confidence level; Losses in Stress Scenarios (Stress Testing): a simulation technique to evaluate the impact on assets, liabilities and derivatives portfolios of various risk factors in extreme market situations (based on prospective and historic scenarios); 75


LOGO

Stop Loss: a measure aimed at reviewing positions, if the accumulated losses in a given period reach specified levels; Concentration: cumulative exposure of certain financial instruments or risk factors calculated at market value (MtM – Mark to Market); Stressed VaR: a statistical measure derived from VaR calculation, aimed at capturing the largest risk in simulations of the current portfolio, considering observable returns in historical scenarios. Corporate | Internal EVE (Delta Economic Value of Equity): the difference between the present value of the sum of repricing flows of instruments subject to IRRBB (interest rate risk in the banking book) in a base scenario, and the present value of the sum of repricing flows of the same instruments in an interest-rate shock scenario; NII (Delta Net Interest Income): the difference between the result of financial intermediation of instruments subject to IRRBB (interest rate risk in the banking book) in a base scenario, and the result of financial intermediation of the same instruments in an interest-rate shock scenario. Sensitivity and loss control measures are also analyzed. They include: Gap Analysis: accumulated exposure of cash flows by risk factor, expressed at market value and allocated by settlement dates; Sensitivity (DV01- Delta Variation): impact on the market value of cash flows when a one basis point change is applied to current interest or index rates; Sensitivities to Various Risk Factors (Greek): partial derivatives of a portfolio of options in connection with prices of underlying assets, implied volatilities, interest rates and time. Itaú Unibanco manages its risk exposure based on the net of hedging and hedging objects. Controls using net exposure limits are applied in accordance with the risk appetite determined by the bank. v. whether the issuer operates financial instruments with goals diverse from equity hedging, and what are these goals The Issuer hedges transactions with clients and proprietary positions to take advantage of market opportunities, seeking to mitigate risks arising from fluctuations in prices of market risk factors and mismatches, and maintaining the classification of operations within exposure limits in effect approved by proper committees/authorities. Derivatives are used for these hedging activities and treasury proprietary transactions. For situations in which these are hedge accounting transactions, both hedge effectiveness and any accounting impacts are monitored. Accounting and economic hedging procedures are governed by institutional policies. vi. the organizational structure for market risk management control Market Risk Senior management is directly involved in market risk management, conducted on an ongoing basis with commissions and committees meeting regularly so that the risk assessment and its impact on capital have an effective impact on the decision-making process at all levels, whether related to Itaú Unibanco’s products, activities, processes or systems.

5.3. With respect to the controls adopted by the issuer to ensure the preparation of reliable financial statements, indicate: a) The main internal control practices and the efficiency level of such controls, indicating any imperfections and measures adopted to correct them. The management of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls related to the company’s consolidated financial statements. The Internal control related to financial statements is a process developed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of accounting information and the preparation of financial statements disclosed in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The internal controls related to the financial statements include policies and procedures that (i) are related to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and write-offs of the Company’s assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements under the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and that the Company’s receipts and payments are only being made as authorized by the Company’s management and officers; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance as to the timely prevention or detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or allocation of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Due to their inherent limits, the internal controls related to the financial statements may not avoid or detect errors. Therefore, even the systems determined to be effective may only provide reasonable assurance as to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements. Likewise, projections of any evaluation on their effectiveness for future periods may be subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, or deterioration may occur in the level of conformity with practices or procedures. Management evaluated the effectiveness of the internal controls related to the Company’s consolidated financial statements on December 31, 2020 in accordance with the criteria defined by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control (“COSO”) – Integrated Framework (2013). The management’s evaluation includes the documentation, assessment and tests of the design and effectiveness of the internal controls related to the financial statements. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the internal controls related to the consolidated financial statements are effective with respect to December 31, 2020. b) the organizational structures involved Itaú Unibanco Holding’s internal controls and operational risk management framework is in conformity with the definitions established by international bodies Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (2013) (COSO - Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) - Integrated Framework), and Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA) (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology (COBIT)). It also adheres to the recommendations suggested by the Basel Committee and the provisions of domestic and foreign regulatory bodies, and it is in line with institutional policy “Integrated Operational Risk and Internal Controls Management” as a primary means to operate its Operational Risk and Internal Controls management framework and to ensure compliance with defined guidelines by way of an integrated approach.

Risks are reassessed and the Program is improved on an ongoing basis. These assessments may be carried out in a number of ways, such as indicators, key control tests, risk diagnosis or studies of processes, audit work, outside assessments, and monitoring of standards and trends. Itaú Unibanco’s Integrity and Ethics Program is assessed by the Internal Audit department every year with satisfactory outcomes. Internal policies are also revised annually. Additionally, in 2018 Itaú Unibanco’s Integrity Program was assessed for maturity by an outside independent consultancy. This assessment was carried out through a methodology based on foreign legislations and the highest international integrity program assessment standards, covering a number of aspects of the Brazilian Anti-Corruption Law (Law No. 12,846/13), the Decree that regulated this law (Decree No. 8,420/15), and the guidelines of the Office of the Federal Controller General (CGU) for integrity program implementation. The outcome of this assessment has evidenced Itaú Unibanco’s Integrity Program’s advanced maturity level. Our efforts to fight and prevent corruption and fraud have been publicly acknowledged by the Ministry of Transparency and the Office of the Federal Controller General (CGU) in partnership with the Ethos Institute for the recognition of Itaú Unibanco as a Pro-Ethics Company for the third consecutive year. In this latest edition, from the 373 participating companies in the 2018-2019 biennial period, 26 companies were approved and recognized at the Lei da Empresa Limpa (Clean Company Law) Conference held in Brasilia in December 2019. It is worth mentioning that Itaú Unibanco has set a corporate policy to prevent its involvement in illegal activities, protect its reputation and image with employees, clients, strategic partners, suppliers, service providers, regulators and society by means of a governance structure focused on transparency, strict compliance with rules and regulations, and cooperation with the police and judicial authorities. It also seeks to keep an ongoing alignment with the best national and international practices to prevent and fight illicit acts by way of making investments and continually training its employees. To be compliant with corporate policy guidelines, Itaú Unibanco has established programs to prevent and fight illicit acts, based on the following pillars: Policies and procedures; Customer identification process; “Know Your Customer” process (KYC); 83

For further information, please see section Risk Management of the Integrated Annual Report 2020, available on the Investor Relations website. The Illicit Acts and Corruption Prevention and Combat Corporate Policies are available on the Investor Relations website: www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Policies. ii. the organizational structures involved in monitoring the operation and efficiency of the integrity mechanisms and internal procedures, to indicate its duties, whether their establishment was formally approved, the issuer’s bodies to which they report, and mechanisms to ensure the independence of members, if applicable The Corporate Compliance Office (DCC) is the manager of the Integrity and Ethics Program and responsible for coordinating the identification of major risks associated with corruption and required adjustments of the Program processes, with the support of other departments, such as the Corporate Security Office and the Operational Risk Office. As defined in the Compliance Policy approved by the Board of Directors, the Compliance department is independent to exercise its duties and has direct communication with any management member or employee and access to any information required within the scope of its responsibilities. This independence is strengthened by the framework of the Integrity and Ethics joint body coordinated by the DCC and the Program reporting to a number of Senior Management joint bodies (Superior Ethics and Sustainability Committee, Audit Committee, and Board of Directors). DCC has, among its responsibilities, risk analysis with a focus on integrity and ethics; the creation of policies and procedures related to the Integrity and Ethics Program; alignment with the other departments of the Conglomerate for the implementation and maintenance of controls aimed at minimizing the risks; the establishment and implementation of a communication and training plan; and monitoring. These responsibilities are formalized in the Integrity, Ethics and Conduct Policy and the Corporate Anti-Corruption Policy. DCC also works in sharing the Integrity and Ethics Program with the Conglomerate’s International Units, evaluating and supporting communication, awareness and training initiatives. The Program for Brazil and the International Units initiatives are discussed and approved in the Integrity and Ethics committees. Furthermore, illicit act prevention and fight activities, including its monitoring, are carried out by Itaú Unibanco’s Credit Risk, Modeling and Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorist Financing Office (DRCMPLD), with the responsibilities as follows: 84

Inspector Office The Corporate Security Office analyzes the reports received, obtains supplementary information and documents to investigate facts, conducts interviews and internal inquiries, requesting support from other departments, when required, such as the Legal, Compliance, Audit or Internal Ombudsman’s Office, to help analyze and/or address such reports. In the event a specific report cannot be investigated due to a possible conflict of interest, the procedure to be followed for submission of the report to the Executive Internal Audit Office is described below: Involved in the report Responsible for the analysis and handling Up to superintendent level Corporate Security Office Officers and executive officers Executive Internal Audit Board and Corporate Security Office Members of the Executive Committee or Audit Committee or members of the Board of Directors or other members of the committees reporting to the Board of Directors Executive Internal Audit Office Audit officers Board of Directors, Audit Committee, and Corporate Security Office Internal Ombudsman’s Office The Internal Ombudsman’s Office is an independent department in the organization with autonomy to operate in any hierarchical level.

In cases involving senior management members, this channel may also request the Executive Committee and/or the Audit Committee to resolve on such incidents. c) whether the issuer adopts any procedures in mergers, acquisitions or corporate reorganizations to identify weaknesses and risks of undue practices in the companies involved in these processes In mergers, acquisitions, and corporate restructuring, Itaú Unibanco, through its proprietary M&A department, adopts the procedures available to identify any weaknesses and material undue practices in connection with the counterparties involved in such processes. This procedure is carried out by way of a thorough diligence process on companies subject to a merger or acquisition, as well as by including specific contractual clauses in the instruments that formalize each operation in the event the transaction is completed. A diligence process is the in-depth assessment and analysis of publicly and non-publicly information and documents of an entity and/or a business as part of a M&A operation. It is a long-running, complex investigation process aimed at identifying weaknesses and/or material undue practices in the company involved in the process and validating the data made available to prospective buyers. This process comprises financial, accounting, fiscal, technology, legal, corporate, labor, social security, E&S, real estate, intellectual property, compliance, AML, anti-corruption, among other issues, so as to assure whether the company has conducted business in compliance with applicable legislation and whether it is 88


LOGO

regularly organized, in addition to whether it holds all authorizations and permits required for operation purposes. In addition to the proprietary M&A department and the external advisors engaged with exclusivity to this end, the diligence process involves other departments of the bank to help the analysis process, such as the Compliance, Audit and Internal Controls, Corporate Legal and Litigation, Business and Products, Finance, Tax, Treasury, Human Resources, Technology and Information Security. Notwithstanding all reasonable measures taken to identify weaknesses and undue practices, there is always the risk that we, our legal or financial advisors may not detect them. Should this occur and Itaú Unibanco incur losses as a result of these weaknesses and undue practices after the completion of process, the indemnity rules provided for in agreements related to each operation will be applied. Regarding contractual provisions, Itaú Unibanco demands that its counterparties provide a number of representations and warranties regarding themselves and the entities and/or business involved in the operation. These representations and warranties cover, for example, the regular organization of companies and compliance with legislation applicable to these companies, including specific anti-corruption and anti-money laundering regulations. Any breach of these representations and warranties by counterparties may cause different penalties to befall these counterparties, including the early termination of the contract or operation in question and the payment of compensation to the buyer for the damage suffered. After completing this process, the resulting analysis is submitted to and discussed by the executive team involved in the business and later forwarded for approval by the Strategy Committee, the Executive Committee and/or the Board of Directors, if applicable. d) whether the issuer has no rules, policies or practices to prevent, detect and remedy frauds and illicit acts carried out against public administration, identify the reasons why the issuer has failed to adopt any controls accordingly Not applicable. 5.5. State whether, in the previous year, there were significant changes in the main risks to which the issuer is exposed or in the risk management policy adopted, and comment on any expected increase or decrease in the issuer’s exposure to such risks In the last fiscal year there were no significant changes in the main risks to which we are exposed or in the risk management policy adopted. We believe that managing risks is the essence of our activity and a responsibility of all employees and, therefore, we have the challenge of following up and monitoring traditional risk areas (market, credit and operational risks), and seek, based on our risk culture, to involve all our employees in the day-to-day of risk management. In relation to any expected increase or decrease in the exposure to risks, in addition to those declared in the traditional risk management, we will also seek to monitor the following as we consider them to be emerging risks: Business risk: client centricity is a principle of ours, prioritizing the sustainability of our relationships. We monitor the evolving profile of our clients and competition, creating new products and services always focused on customer satisfaction. Technology risk: we are committed to managing our digitization process, preventing the obsolescence of platforms or systems that may no longer meet business needs, in addition to increasing our IT department productivity. People risk: we are committed to improving mechanisms to attract, motivate and retain the best professionals. We should continually improve our evaluation models to be increasingly perceived as fair and meritocratic. Regulatory risk: we should always be attentive to specific changes in laws and regulations that may affect our business and the offer of products or services. Therefore, we are committed to having a proactive attitude and monitor regulatory changes. 89

5.6. Supply other information that the issuer may deem relevant On August 21, 2017, CMN Resolution No. 4,557, which provides for the risk and capital management structure, came into effect. Noteworthy in this resolution are the implementation of a continuous, integrated risk management framework, the requirements for defining the Risk Appetite Statement (RAS) and the stress testing program, the set-up of a Risk Committee, the nomination of the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) to be reported to the Central Bank of Brazil, and the CRO’s roles, responsibilities and independence requirements. Additional information on items 5.1 and 5.5 COVID-19 relief efforts We have monitored the economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil and other countries where we operate that may adversely affect our results. From the onset of the Covid-19 outbreak in Brazil, we have acted and structured the Institutional Crisis Management Committee. The Executive Committee has set out an intense agenda focused on responsible crisis management, by monitoring the pandemic and its impacts on our operations, in addition to the government measures to mitigate the effects of the pandemic. Over 2020, some measures to mitigate the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil were adopted by the Federal Government, National Monetary Council (CMN), and the Central Bank of Brazil (BACEN), notably: i) CMN Resolution No. 4782/20, as amended by CMN Resolutions No. 4791/20 and 4,856/20, which set out, for a determined period of time, the criteria for characterizing restructuring of loan operations; ii) CMN Resolution No. 4,838/20, which regulates the Working Capital for Business Continuity (CGPE) Program; iii) CMN Resolution No. 4,846/20, which provides for loan operations for financing of payroll carried out by financial institutions, under the Emergency Employment Support Program (PESE); iv) Law No. 13,999/20, which introduced the National Support Program for very small and small companies (Pronampe) aimed at developing and strengthening small business; v) Law No. 14,042/20, which set out the Emergency Program for Access to Credit (Peac), with the purpose of easing access to credit and preserving companies, for the protection of jobs and income. The Peac has two modalities: Emergency Program for Access to Credit in the modality of guarantee (Peac-FGI) and Emergency Program for Access to Credit in the modality guarantee of receivables (Peac-Maquininhas) vi) BACEN Circular No. 3,990/20, and amendments made by BACEN Circular No. 3992/20, which provides for repurchase agreements in foreign currency by the Central Bank of Brazil. We have identified the following impacts on results, as well as effects on estimates and critical judgments for the preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements: (a) increase in loan and financing operations, especially for very small, small and middle-market companies, mainly driven by the measures adopted by authorities to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19, with the set-up of programs such as PESE, Pronampe, Peac-FGI and CGPE, in the amount of R$24,169 million. Through timely monitoring behavior standards and credit quality of clients, we have been able to keep the normal course of our operations despite adverse conditions, and helped clients in the sustainable search for their financial rebalancing; (b) with the purpose of treating indebtedness in a structured way and giving financial impetus to clients, initiatives were established that allowed the extension of grace periods, terms and better interest rate conditions for individuals, very small and small business clients. In March 2020, we set up the Program 60+, which, among other measures, allows a 60-day grace period for defaulting agreements, and the Travessia (Crossing) Program in mid-April. The Travessia program provides for the extension of grace periods between 120 and 180 days and terms of operations between 5 and 6 years, respectively, for individual and very small and small business clients, under better interest rate conditions; (c) 28.05% increase in requests for renegotiation and extension of terms for loan operations as the economic situation changed. (d) allowance for loan losses was increased by R$4,194 million mainly driven by the level of risk and default, due to the changes in the financial prospects of clients and the visible worsening of macroeconomic 90


LOGO

variables. To fully address the risk of our loan operations, we adopt the expected loss model for provisioning of operations since the moment they are granted. It is periodically updated according to the macroeconomic variables and circumstances of the client, and in 2020, in view of the pandemic, a weighting in the economic scenarios was added. In December 2020, the level of coverage of provisions in our loan portfolio accounted for 255% from 187% in December 2019. Specifically, for the expected loss of operations that have not shown any signs of worsening so far (default or downgrading of the client’s rating) provisioning was up 28.8% in the 12-month period. The credit risk governance has enabled us to promptly respond and monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the loan portfolio, permitting quick access to the information needed for discussions and actions of the crisis management daily forums; (e) the mark-to-market component of the securities portfolio was down to -1.3% in the first quarter of 2020, partially driven by rate fluctuations and high price volatility in the markets at the onset of the pandemic, influencing the measurement of items stated at fair value in their different levels; (f) due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the variable income market became instable, which led to the migration to fixed income instruments with liquidity. This movement resulted in increased Bank Deposit Certificates portfolio. Additionally, funding was also impacted, with increase in deposits. With the purpose of mitigating the system’s liquidity risk, the Central Bank of Brazil made available to financial institutions credit lines through repurchase agreements in foreign currency and purchase of financial bills with guarantee, and operations in the total amount of R$ 30,547 million were taken out. (g) increase in the recognition of deferred income tax and social contribution due to the greater volume of deductible temporary differences recorded for the period. The pandemic reduced the projections of taxable income, although it was not responsible for the generation of tax loss and social contribution loss carryforwards in Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A.; and (h) increase in expenses on claims related to COVID-19 of R$104 million, mainly related to life and credit life insurance. In-person customer service staff reduced and spacing between people in call centers was increased to reduce movement of people and possible contagion. The average number of people circulating in administrative centers was reduced, since they started to work remotely. Approximately 97% of our employees in the central management, service centers and digital branches are working from home. It should be noted that despite the aforementioned measures, we have maintained our operating activities. To reduce the effects of the crisis and ensure the employee’s health and safety, self-declaration was encouraged for employees who consider themselves at risk and those who cannot work remotely were put on vacation. With the purpose of supporting those who possibly had additional expenses due to the current crisis, the Christmas bonus was advanced in full. Additionally, a process of communication and transparency with employees was established through emails, internal employee’s portal and periodic videos prepared by our Chief Executive Officer communicating COVID-19-related news. Our adaptation to the crisis is the result not only of technology investments, which allow for these virtual interactions, but also of investments in flexibility in the work environment, such as home working, communities integrated between different bank departments and new layouts in the administrative centers that promote employees’ mobility. In 2020, we set up the initiative “Todos pela Saúde” (All for Health) from the donation of R$1 billion, with the purpose of fighting the new Coronavirus and its effects on Brazilian society. “Todos Pela Saúde” is conducted based on four axes: Informing, Protecting, Caring, and Resuming. 91

ITEM 6. HISTORY OF THE ISSUER 6.1 / 6.2 / 6.4 – Issuer’s incorporation, term of duration and date of registration with CVM Date of issuer’s incorporation 09/09/1943 Type of business organization Corporation Country of incorporation Brazil Term of duration Undetermined Date of registration with CVM 12/30/2002 6.3. Brief history of the Issuer General Our corporate name is Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. We are organized as a publicly-held company for an indeterminate period of time under Brazil’s laws. We are headquartered at Praça Alfredo Egydio de Souza Aranha, 100, Torre Olavo Setubal, Piso Itaú Unibanco, CEP 04344-902, São Paulo, SP, Brazil, and our telephone number is +55-11-2794-3547. Our CNPJ/MF No. 60.872.504/0001-23 is registered at the Board of Trade of the State of São Paulo under NIRE No. 35300010230. Our corporate purpose, as set forth in Article 2 of our Bylaws, is to undertake the banking activity in all authorized forms, including foreign exchange operations. Our history goes way back to 1924, when the banking division of Casa Moreira Salles started operating in the Minas Gerais state. It would later become União dos Bancos Brasileiros, widely known as Unibanco. Two decades later, in 1943, Itaú was founded by Alfredo Egydio de Souza Aranha, and originally named Banco Central de Crédito S.A. with its first branch in the city of São Paulo. In their first decades of operation, mergers led to the set-up of Banco Itaú América and the resulting consolidation of the Itaú brand. Since 1973, we have operated under the name Banco Itaú S.A., currently Itaú Unibanco. Over the years, we have grown, changed our names at times, went through mergers and acquisitions, experienced Brazil’s economic miracle, hyperinflation, the rise of the middle class and some world crises. We have witnessed Brazil’s progress and countless histories of employees and clients who have helped us move forward and encouraged our growth. In 2008, we entered into the largest merger ever in Brazil’s history. The highlight of this event is mainly due to the sensitive moment we lived in 2008, when the world witnessed a severe financial crisis in the international market. The Itaú Unibanco partnership has meant the joining of complementary mindsets, of two banks with major breakthroughs in the use of technology and leaders in Brazil’s financial sector, sharing common histories. This merger has given rise to the largest private financial conglomerate of the southern hemisphere. In 2018, we celebrated ten years of the Itaú Unibanco merger, adding a new chapter in our history, which has enabled us to become the largest private bank in Latin America. Since the set-up of the Itaú Unibanco group, we have carried out the mergers and acquisitions as follows: 2009: Partnership with Porto Seguro to distribute auto and residential insurance products 2012: Itaú Unibanco takes over control of Redecard by delisting its capital on Bovespa. In the following year, the company is renamed Rede. 2013: Acquisition of Credicard, jointly set up by Citibank, Itaú and Unibanco in 1970 2014: Merger of Itaú Chile and bank CorpBanca, giving rise to Itaú CorpBanca, which then became the fourth largest bank in Chile 2015: Acquisition of 50% stake at ConectCar, with management shared between Itaú Unibanco and the Ultra Group. That same year saw the acquisition of Recovery, an assets recovery company formerly owned by BTG Pactual. 92


LOGO

2016: Acquisition of Citibank’s retail operations in Brazil 2017: Acquisition of a 49.9% equity interest in XP Investimentos, one of Brazil’s largest independent investment brokers 2019: Seeking to speed up its digital transformation, Itaú purchases Zup, a technology services company. 2020: Acquisition of broker Verbank Securities (Paraguay), currently named Itaú Investe. Acquisition of equity interest in Fintech Quanto. At last, we seek to make headway in a solid journey, based on the commitment to promoting social transformation. Our history is marked by our valuing of culture, education, sport and urban mobility through the programs sponsored by Fundação Itaú para a Educação e Cultura, Instituto Unibanco, and Espaço Itaú de Cinema. Our concern with social issues has greatly increased in the face of the largest health crisis ever brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. Faced with this challenge, in 2020 we set up the “Todos pela Saúde” (All for Health” initiative, supported on the largest philanthropic donation already made by a private entity in Brazil. We believe that, as a bank, we should encourage people to grow and companies to move forward. The responsibility we have taken for the development of Brazil is at the core of our activities and is a hallmark of our whole history. 6.5. Indicate whether there has been any petition for bankruptcy, provided that it was based on a significant amount, or for judicial or extrajudicial recovery from the issuer, and the current status of such petitions: Not applicable. 6.6.

Our offering of products and services in this segment includes: personal loans, credit cards, payroll loans, vehicle financing, mortgage loans, insurance, pension plan and premium bond products, and acquiring services, among others.

Our wholesale banking management model is based on building close relationships with our clients by obtaining an in-depth understanding of our clients’ needs and offering customized solutions.

Please see “Note 30 – Segment Information” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further details. The diversification of our business is reflected in the changing composition of our loan portfolio over the last few years, focusing on origination in lower risk segments with enhanced guarantees. We continuously seek to implement and focus on offering new products and services that add value to our clients and diversify our income sources. This allows for the growth of our non-financial income arising mainly from banking service fees, income from bank charges and from insurance, pension plan and capitalization operations. 95

Retail Banking We have a large and diverse portfolio of products, such as credit and investments, and services to address our clients’ needs. Our retail banking business is segmented according to customer profiles, which allows us to connect with and understand our customers’ needs, better enabling us to offer suitable products to meet their demands. Our main activities under the retail banking segment are the following: Itaú Retail Banking (individuals) Our core business is retail banking and through our retail operation we offer a dedicated service structure to consumer clients throughout Brazil. Our customer service structure is targeted to offering the best solutions for each client profile. We classify our retail clients as individuals with a monthly income of up to R$4,000. Our Itaú Uniclass services are available at every branch for clients who earn more than R$4,000 and less than R$15,000 per month. We offer exclusive services to our Itaú Uniclass clients, including investment advisory services, exclusive cashiers and higher credit limits and a large team of dedicated relationship managers. For clients who prefer remote services, our Itaú Uniclass provides a “digital bank platform” where relationship managers service clients through telephone, e-mail, SMS, videoconference and chat from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on business days, at no additional cost. Our focus on digital transformation led to an increase of the share of our digital operations, which are sales, account openings and accesses through the internet and mobile app. For instance, the online account opening process via mobile app, launched in 2016, already represents 49% of the individual accounts opened on a monthly basis (excluding salary accounts), as of December 31, 2020. We also continue to focus on initiatives to improve customer satisfaction. The satisfaction ratings (Net Promoter Score, or NPS) of our retail bank improved by 11 percentage points between August 2018 and December 2020. Itaú Personnalité (banking for high-income individuals) We began providing customized services to high-income individuals in 1996 with the creation of the Itaú Personnalité segment, which currently serves individuals who earn more than R$15,000 per month or have investments in excess of R$250,000. Itaú Personnalité is focused on providing (i) financial advisory services by managers who understand the specific needs of our higher-income clients, (ii) a large portfolio of exclusive products and services and (iii) special benefits based on the type and length of relationship with the client, including discounts on various products and services.

For clients who prefer remote services, Itaú Personnalité provides a “digital bank platform” where relationship managers service clients through telephone, email, SMS and videoconference. We also developed apps for smartphones and tablets that enable our clients to make investments, buy products such as credit and insurance, make check deposits, transfers and payments, check account balances and find nearby branches and ATMs using GPS features. Itaú Empresas (very small and small companies) To meet and fulfill the needs of our corporate customers, we specialize in offering customized solutions and detailed advice on all products and services for: Microenterprises: customer base consisting of companies with annual revenues of up to R$ 1.2 million, served by 2,587 bank branches and 2,144 relationship managers as of December 31, 2020; and 96

Our customers rely on our main strategy of capturing market opportunities and meeting their needs, particularly regarding cash flow management, credit facilities, investments and banking services. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic crisis, we have sought to support our customers with complete and sustainable solutions. In mid-April 2020, we launched a more comprehensive program called Travessia. The range of customized solutions offered includes grace periods, extended loan terms and new interest rate conditions. We also provided new government sponsored credit facilities to support our clients. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the process of customer digitalization. To help our customers with this process, we developed new products, services and digital processes, as well as improving the tools used by our sales and relationship teams, aiming at greater efficiency in business generation and service. We strive to maintain high levels of customer satisfaction by placing them at the heart of our business approach. To achieve this goal, using the NPS system we constantly monitor the NPS indicator and intensify customer journey mapping as a means to identify opportunities to excel at meeting the needs of our customers. Our NPS indicator for this segment increased 13 percentual points between August 2018 and December 2020. Credit Cards and Commercial Agreements We are the leader in the Brazilian credit card segment with a market share in terms of purchase volume of 32.4% in the fourth quarter of 2020, according to ABECS (Associação Brasileira das Empresas de Cartões de Crédito e Serviços). Through our proprietary segments and partnerships with major retailers, telephone companies, automakers and airlines established in Brazil, we offer a wide range of credit and debit cards to account holders and non-account holders. Our purpose is to provide the best customer experience and satisfaction. In order to achieve this, as one of our priorities, we established the “Customer First”. Our aim is to continuously grow our credit card portfolio increasing digitalization, profitability and the quality of our assets. Accordingly, our credit card division is dedicated to developing the best payment solutions for our clients,new products and new digital services while managing the credit quality of our portfolio. Our global NPS, a measure of customer satisfaction, indicates that our score improved two basis points compared to 2018. In order to continue evolving our credit card portfolio, our strategic focus is based on three main business segmentations: Account Holders, Non-Account Holders and Retail Partnerships. In 2020, the Account Holders businesses – Itaú Agências, Itaú Uniclass e Personnalité – launched fast growing sales products: Itaú Uniclass Visa Infinity, Itau Agências Click and the Itaú Personnalité Visa Signature card, in which we were pioneers in the Brazilian market. In a context of high demand for purchases through delivery services, Itaú Personnalité Visa Signature card offers 70% discount on the Rappi Prime subscription, possibility of payment via NFC technology (contactless) and travel benefits that include luggage loss, theft insurance and trip cancellation. Another highlight of 2020 was the launch of “pontos que rendem” on Itau’s Loyalty program for Personnalité cardholders, which are investors. The program yields loyalty points along the year just like our clients investments. In the Non-Account Holders segment our focus was on improving and expanding our co-branded program and the Credicard division transformation. In 2020, the airline cobranded cards, increased total accounts by 7.4% and purchase volume by 3.8%. The Azul Itaucard was rebranded, and we launched the Azul 97

infinite card, with a series of benefits such as: better score in the rewards program, free annual fee when the customer reaches a monthly spending goal, discount on airline tickets, access to VIP lounges and cabin upgrade. In the Credicard division, we made many changes to our way of doing business, such as the institution of a new purpose in 2019 “To awaken in people the power of believing.” In 2020, even amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced significant improvement in our business. Based on our three pillars (“Smart,” connection and partnership), Credicard improved its retention rates and sales levels for the three-month period ended December 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. In addition, in 2020 Credicard outperformed its 2019 Black Friday numbers, created a new robust cashback model and delivered some great systemic improvements alongside the launch of a new product “Credicard On” in co-creation with our clients. Our Retail Partnerships business is one of our fastest growing businesses in the credit card division. We have partnerships with the main national retail brands, such as Magazine Luiza, Ponto Frio, Pão de Açúcar, Extra and Big Group.). By the end of 2020, retail partnerships returned to similar purchase volume levels as those seen in 2019, despite the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results. Walmart operation in Brazil was re-branded to BIG (supermarket chain) and the credit card product was relaunched with a new platform of benefits and discounts. In the Sam’s Club partnership credit card, which is part of BIG group, all “international” credit cards were up-graded to the “gold” category, more compatible with our clients’ profile. For our partnership with Magazine Luiza, we continued to reinforce our strategy of growing purchase volume and new accounts, launching a new sales channel offering credit cards through Magazine Luiza’s app. In “Passaí,” we launched a new POS machine focusing on the small entrepreneur. It became available in all Assaí stores. Payroll Deducted Loans In Brazil, a payroll deducted loan is a specific type of loan entered into by salaried employees or pensioners of the Brazilian social security system, as borrowers, and banks, as lenders, in which fixed monthly installments are deducted directly from the borrower’s payroll or pension, as the case may be, for the payment of the amount owed to the lender. Our strategy is directed mainly to the pensioners of the Brazilian social security system and employees of public and private companies. We offer payroll deducted loans in Brazil mainly through two sales channels: (i) our branch network and our remote service channels, focusing on retail account holders, and (ii) the network of acquisition partners, focusing on non-account holders. This strategy allows us to expand our business activities with historically lower credit risk, achieving a competitive position in the offer, distribution and sale of payroll deducted loans in Brazil and improving the risk profile of our loans portfolio to individuals. Mortgage We assist our clients with their financial development, as we help them with their personal assets. Mortgage financing products allow us to create long-lasting relationships with our clients, as mortgage financing products are of a long-term nature. Since 2008, we have been the market leaders among Brazilian private banks in mortgage loans to individuals in terms of the total size of our portfolio. This is a result of our business focus, which is in line with our strategy to migrate to lower-risk portfolios. We have several sales channels that are utilized for purposes of mortgage financing products: (i) branch network, (ii) construction and development companies, (iii) mortgage agencies, and (iv) partnerships with REMAX, a realtor company, and CrediPronto, a mortgage financing company. We prioritize customer satisfaction by providing our clients with a specialized mortgage financing advisor to support them during the mortgage process. Our process is expeditious and efficient, and it takes us less than two hours to get back to the client for loans up to R$1 million. This financing process can be fully digital. 98

In line with our strategic focus on digital processes, our simulator is included on the websites of partner development companies and real estate agencies, placing our brand closer to clients when they are looking to acquire real property. Our services are customized for every moment of the client’s digital journey, from internet banking services to social networks, providing us with increasing client exposure levels. In 2019 and 2018 we were awarded the “Best Digital Mortgage Bank Brazil” by Global Finance. The number of mortgages we provided directly to individuals in 2020 was 58 thousand, for an aggregate value of R$18.9 billion during the year. In 2020, our portfolio had an average Loan to Value (LTV) of 40.0%, compared to 38.7% in 2019. In commercial loans, we financed 92 new real estate units during 2020, with an aggregate value of R$3.2 billion. Another positive feature of the Brazilian market is the constant amortization system pursuant to which decreasing installments provide faster amortization of a contract, reducing our loan-to-value indicator at a faster rate than other amortization systems. Merchant Acquirer Rede is one of the leading companies in the electronic payment solutions industry in Brazil. It is a multi-brand merchant acquirer of credit, debit and benefit cards. Rede’s activities include merchant acquiring, capturing, transmission, processing and settlement of credit and debit card transactions, prepayment of receivables to merchants (resulting from credit card transactions), rental of point of sale (POS) terminals, e-commerce solutions, e-wallet and check verification through POS terminals. In 2020, we continued to restructure our business model, focusing on the following priorities: 1) integration of our banking operations; 2) strengthening of direct sales channels; and 3) digital transformation. We generated R$506.6 billion in transactions with respect to credit and debit cards during the year ended December 31, 2020 an increase of 4.5% compared to the same period in 2019. The following table sets forth the financial volume of credit and debit card transactions processed by us in 2020, 2019 and 2018: (In billions of R$) Financial Volume 2020 2019 2018 Credit cards 308.8 312.7 280.8 Debit cards 197.8 172.3 156.3 Total 506.6 485.0 437.1 Private Pension Plans We offer private pension plans to our clients as an option for wealth, inheritance planning and income tax purposes (these products are tax-deferred). We provide our clients with a solution to ensure the maintenance of their quality of life through long-term investments, as a supplement to government general social security system plans. Product innovation has been important for the sustainable growth of our private sector pension operations. For legal entities, we offer specialized advice and develop customized solutions for each company. We establish long-term partnerships with our corporate clients, maintaining a close relationship with their human resources departments and adopting a communication strategy focused on our employees’ financial education. According to the National Federation of Private Pension and Life (Federação Nacional de Previdência Privada e Vida), or FENAPREVI, contributions to Itaú Private Pension Plans reached R$15.4 billion in the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease compared to the contributions registered in December 2019 is mainly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 99

Vehicle Financing We developed and launched a series of new products and services during 2020, some of which are: Digital Retail – the evolution in our digital retail platform had an important impact in our journey. We launched automotive e-commerce with digital assistant, integrating means of payment and financial services, in a 100% digital experience for the customer. Further, to ensure safety in our transactions and to optimize the client experience, we deployed a facial biometrics solution and electronic signature. Programa Travessia – we launched new solutions to support our clients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, we offered grace periods of 60 and 120 days or loan reprofiling with an extension of the contract term, keeping the original contracted rate. These solutions benefited a significant amount of vehicle financing clients. VEC – we announced to the market our new service of electric vehicle shared, Vec Itaú, which will be available to customers in the second half of 2021. This new solution will allow users to unlock the cars at stations directly through the application and return them at the same place or at another charging station.

As of December 31, 2020, our individual and corporate vehicle financing portfolio (not considering FINAME) totaled R$35.7 billion, an 27% increase from the previous year. The average loan to value ratio of our individuals vehicle portfolio (the ratio of a loan to the value of an asset purchased) was 61.4% as of December 31, 2020, a 180 basis points increase compared to 2019. Since 2012, we have reduced our risk exposure in the sector and focused on clients with better risk profiles, which has allowed us to improve the credit quality of our vehicle loan portfolio. The total amount of new contracts during the year ended December 31, 2020 reached R$22.5 billion, a 9% growth compared to 2019, for our individual and corporate vehicle financing operations. The average vehicle loan term was 44 months, with 33% of the transactions carried out with terms up to 36 months. Insurance Our insurance business provides a wide range of life and personal accident products, automobile and property insurance, credit insurance and travel insurance. Our insurance core activities, which include our 30% stake in Porto Seguro S.A, consist of mass-market insurance products related to life, property and credit. These products are offered in synergy with retail channels – our branch network, partnerships with retailers, credit card clients, real estate and vehicle financing, personal loans – and the wholesale channel. These products have characteristics such as a low combined ratio, low volatility in results and less use of capital, making them strategic and increasingly relevant in the diversification of the Itaú Unibanco Group’s revenues. Other insurance activities encompass extended warranty, health insurance, our 11.6% stake in IRB – Brasil Resseguros S.A. and other operations. Our insurance products have been receiving updates on coverage and assistance, bringing more value to these customers. In order to expand our insurance products portfolio, we are concentrating on our own existing distribution channels as well as expanding our insurance brokerage activities and providing third-party insurance policies from partner insurers to our clients through an open platform. 100

There was a reduction in the sales volume in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, although there was no reduction in the amount of insurance from our customer portfolio. There was also a substantial impact on death, unemployment and hospitalization coverage due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Premium Bonds (“títulos de capitalização”, or capitalization plans) Premium bonds are fixed deposit products pursuant to which a client makes a one-time deposit or monthly deposits of a fixed sum that will be returned at the end of a designated term. Ownership of premium bonds automatically qualifies a customer to participate in periodic raffles, each time with the opportunity to win a significant cash prize. We currently market our premium bonds products portfolio through our branch network, electronic channels and ATMs, and we are currently developing new technologies for channel diversification. The net collection, taking into account the deduction of redemptions, from capitalization plans decreased 39.5% in the year ended December 31, 2020 when compared to the same period of 2019. Consortia A consortium is a pool of people and/or legal persons in a group with the purpose of allowing their members, on an equal basis, to acquire assets, such as vehicles, properties, or services, through self-financing. The payments made by the group participants are applied to a common fund, used by one or more members of the consortium at a time, to acquire the assets elected by the members when the product was contracted. The participants receive the assets during the validity of the contract through the following methods: (i) random drawing; (ii) bid offer with own resources; (iii) part of the letter of credit; and (iv) FGTS tax (only for properties consortium), with the exception of the random drawing, the other options may be combined. As consortia are regarded as a provision of services under Brazilian law, the management of consortia does not give rise to default risk or regulatory capital requirements for us. Consortia do not charge interest rates and our revenues come mainly from the administration fee charged to clients. Given these characteristics, this business is strategic to us, contributing to revenue diversification and to a more complete product portfolio offering to our clients. As of December 31, 2020, we achieved the following results: Monthly average of R$1,154 million of sales in the three-month period ended December 31, 2020; R$3.5 billion of sales recorded in the three-month period ended December 31, 2020, an increase of 10% compared to the same period of 2019 and an increase of 33% compared to the three-month period ended September 30, 2020; New products implemented: trucks and motorcycles; and New feature: in our app, customers can find a new feature to help them buying a consortium. They only have to fill a form and they will receive a call offering the best options for them.

Loans are granted by specifically trained microcredit loan officers who discuss the client’s financial situation and understand their business’s needs, as well as provide information to help them improve their financial management. In 2020, our most important initiative was to help our clients navigate the significant impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Brazilian economy. We postponed the due dates of all interested, compliant clients 101

in 60 days during the second quarter of 2020 and offered a renegotiation campaign with special discounts for those who defaulted during the third quarter of 2020.

The reduction in assets under management in 2020 was intensified due to the COVID-19 pandemic which led to an asset migration out of funds and into the Bank Deposit Certificates portfolio.

Many habits and customs were adjusted to the “new normal” and digital channels have become a very safe way to continue interacting with other people and companies without leaving home. We invested a substantial amount of effort to give our customers the best possible experience through digital channels. Improvements in the regulatory and competitive scenario reinforced that commitments we made to our customers and other stakeholders a couple of years ago were of utter importance and resulted in important achievements. Our year over year growth in 2020 in monthly active users was 13% and there was a 108% growth in accounts opened digitally for individuals, which represented almost 50% of the total accounts opened in 2020. We also had two records: the download of Itaú App was 1.3x higher than the daily average of 2020 and the download of Itaú Empresas App was 5x higher than the daily average of the same period. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we encouraged our customers to use our digital channels, such as our apps and online banking website, and our digital products. Our website was reconfigured to give prominence to Digital Channels, including a step by step for those who have never used the Itaú App and how to use the main financial services tutorials (view transactions, transfer money and pay bills, credit card payment, virtual cards, unlocking credit and debit card passwords, tracking card orders). We also communicated the services that can be done online on our social networks and sent e-mails and SMS to our customers. We created the “Services HUB”, a feature in Itaú Apps, with a simple and pragmatic interface, which includes many forms where customers can make requests for operational services. Requests are automatically sent to back office teams, thus reducing the demand for branches and call centers, balancing the experience and practical benefits with efficiency and process optimization. We have more than 16 new forms available and have already processed more than 853 thousand transactions. Besides, we improved the interaction of customers with managers and specialists to purchase products and receiving recommendations, assuring 107

contextualized and quality service. In addition, we are enhancing the connection between online and offline (o2o) channels to optimize the bank’s results. At WhatsApp Itaú, our focus was to expand the number of services and customers served by the channel. We launched the contact number to serve business customers and the exclusive contact number to deal with renegotiation for retail customers, which now serves active and inactive bank accounts, from simulation to contracting. In addition, we provide a feature that allows non-digitized customers to interact with WhatsApp Itaú, becoming a highly relevant digitization tool. These solutions illustrate our commitment to an omnichannel experience, to always be the bank our clients want to partner with. Also, in 2020, to help businesses during the COVID-19 crisis, we offered three types of loans in partnership with the government, with special conditions, all available through our digital channels. The first one was exclusive for the payment of salaries and financed 136 thousand payrolls, benefiting almost 50 thousand companies and over 1 million employees and R$2.9 billion in financings. We also offered a loan to support micro and small businesses, which resulted in more than 16 thousand contracts in the first 24 hours and an aggregate amount of R$4 billion borrowed. And the final loan, was a loan for small, medium and large businesses, which resulted in an aggregate amount of R$15 billion borrowed. The NPS in this segment increased by 5 points in 2020, which indicates that we were able to attend the needs of our customers with great quality. Another important service that we launched was Pix, an online payment and transfer system from the Central Bank. We built Pix considering simple and intuitive interfaces that can offer the best solution to our customers. This product was built by a 300 people multidisciplinary team, working remotely. Within less than two months, the transfers and payments made by Pix represented, organically, 26% of all the bank transfers in our main individual app, showing its disruptive potential and also an excellent basis to build new products and services for our customers. Our communications channel became more efficient every year, and as we are closer to our customers, we can understand the best direction to follow, not only in terms of service evolution, but also in more efficient ways to help people manage their financial life. Another important point is that everything that is developed in digital channels, is not only built for, but with our customers, taking into consideration their daily routine, pain points and needs. This is a great differential – we have the knowledge and the tools to make our journeys simpler and more intuitive, considering each customer profile. We are also adapting our portfolio and products to serve a larger amount of customers. To mention some of these products, we have investment recommendations according to the clients’ objectives, online check deposit, buying foreign currency in the mobile app, iPhone pra Sempre (an online iPhone update program with credit card) and online renegotiation. We are constantly recognized for being close to the customer and always delivering best-in-class innovation. As an example, we earned the Folha Top of Mind 2019 as the Best Banking Mobile App category, and in 2020 we earned a national award called Digital Transformation Bank Report, in the categories Credit innovation and Customer/User Experience. In addition, we won the Finances category in Datafolha research about companies and services which had a positive impact during the pandemic. Our Brand and Marketing Channels We strive to provide complete solutions in terms of products and services, through financial intelligence and an ecosystem of partnerships. This echoes in our continuous effort to fully attend the needs of each customer, from individuals and micro companies to large organizations, and provide the best experience both digitally and physically, which is reflected in our brand positioning. Our brand is committed to encouraging people to have an easier and closer relationship with their finances in their daily lives. We are active in social media with constant publications about the economic environment and tutorials. In December 2020, we reached over one billion views on our YouTube channel and over nine million followers on Facebook. In the same period, our Twitter and Instagram profiles had over 641 thousand and 521 thousand followers, respectively. We continue to monitor all of our social media profiles 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We have 150 dedicated employees to interact with the public on all matters related to Itaú Unibanco Group in Brazil, including questions, suggestions, comments, and complaints. We received more than 2.9 million mentions on social media in 2020, according to Oliver, consulting agency that assist us in the analysis of social media data. 108

Social media is a pillar in engaging people in our role beyond banking. Itaú Unibanco invests in several projects, with a focus in education, culture, mobility, and sport. Our urban mobility platform has more than 1,400 bike stations and is present in seven cities in Brazil as well as in Santiago (Chile) and Buenos Aires (Argentina). According to the operator TemBici, in 2020 an average of more than 1 million trips were made each month using bikes from our urban mobility platform. This is due to the amount of bikes we offer people: there are over 7,000 laranjinhas (orange bikes) across Brazil. In education, our programs are equally powerful: since the “Leia para uma criança” (Read to a child) program was created, more than 61 million printed books were distributed to people and 38 thousand braille books were offered to visually impaired children. Three million books have already been sent to public libraries, civil society organizations, and schools. This shows our commitment to mobilize clients and non-clients to make a difference in our country. As a result, in 2020 we were ranked for the 17th consecutive year at the top of the Interbrand ranking of most valuable Brazilian brands with an estimated value of R$37,383 million. The analysis is based on our brand’s ability to generate financial results, influence the clients’ selection process, and ensure long-term demand. b) Revenues by segment and their share in the issuer’s net revenues Activities Our segment information is based on reports used by senior management to assess the financial performance of our segments and to make decisions regarding the allocation of funds for investment and other purposes.

ii. State of competition in the markets Competition The last several years have been characterized by increased competition and consolidation in the financial services industry in Brazil. According to the Central Bank, as of December 31, 2020, there were 139 conglomerates, commercial banks and multiple-service banks, development banks and Caixa Econômica Federal, among a total of 1,291 institutions in Brazil. We, together with Banco Bradesco S.A. and Banco Santander Brasil S.A., are the leaders in the privately-owned multiple-services banking sector. As of December 31, 2020, these three banks accounted for 39.0% of the Brazilian banking sector’s total assets, according to the Central Bank. We also face competition from state-owned banks. According to the Central Bank, as of December 31, 2020, Banco do Brasil S.A., Caixa Econômica Federal, and Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES) accounted for 35.8% of the banking system’s total assets.

(3) Excludes payments institutions Source: central bank (IF.data). Along with our traditional competitors, there are also new technology-driven financial institutions such as fintechs, Asset Management firms and Acquiring Services which are disrupting the Brazilian financial industry. In general, these competitors act in specific business lines such as Credit Cards (e.g. Nubank), Investment Services (e.g. XP Investimentos), Acquiring Services (e.g. StoneCo, PagSeguro), Banking Services (e.g. Banco Inter, BTG Digital) and others. Although many of our non-traditional competitors are still in early stages of development, they start to gradually increase the number of products and services offered. As technology advances and clients’ preferences and expectations change, boosted by innovations introduced by the new competition, traditional competitors are also changing and redesigning their products, distribution and communication channels. d) Possible seasonality Our retail banking, such as credit cards and acquiring services have some seasonality in general, with an increased level of retail and credit card transactions during the Christmas season and a subsequent decrease at the beginning of the year.     In addition, there is seasonality at the end of the year in our pension plan business, driven by the statutory requirement in Brazil that all employees must receive the equivalent of one month’s extra salary at the end of the year.     We also have some seasonality in our banking service fees related to collection services at the beginning of the year, when taxes and other fiscal contributions are usually paid. e) The main inputs and raw materials, informing: i. Description of the relationships established with suppliers, including whether they are subject to governmental controls or regulation, indicating the bodies and the applicable legislation The procurement of goods and services in our supply chain is carried out in a centralized way by the Procurement Department, with the involvement of the procuring and legal, among other back-office,


LOGO

departments. However, there are categories where commercial and contractual negotiation stages are assigned to their technical managers. Other procurement stages are carried out in a centralized way by the Procurement department, ensuring the administrative assessment of supplier and that signed contracts are registered in the management system.    
We have a structured supplier assessment process aimed at mitigating risks in the supply chain. This process starts with the supplier accessing website www.itau.com.br/fornecedores to register in the institutional system where the Code of Ethics, Supplier Relationship Code, Sustainability Policy and Minimum Information Security Requirements are published for awareness and acknowledgment purposes. After registering in our system, the supplier goes under an administrative approval process, consisting of an analysis of the supplier’s adherence to environmental and social responsibility practices, compliance with and adherence to fiscal, tax and labor legislation regularity of certificates, licenses, payment of taxes, salaries and contributions, and fulfillment of corporate obligations through the same tools used to assess clients (credit analysis, debts to the market and suppliers, AML, fraud, anti-corruption law, and other discrediting facts).
This process is based on three risk analysis pillars and includes a specific view based on the risks associated with the type of the products or services supplied.
Reputational/Regulatory: analysis of risks associated with image and compliance with current legislation;
Financial: analysis of risks associated with the supplier’s financial health; and
Labor: analysis of risks associated with the supplier’s complying with labor obligations.
In addition to this administrative assessment, in accordance with established internal criteria, suppliers go under a technical approval stage aimed at reviewing the supplier technical information and its products and services, identifying whether it offers is in line with the institution’s needs and requirements. For suppliers that support the bank’s critical operations, the procurement of products and services is assessed and addressed separately.
The supplier will be eligible to take part in procurement processes if first approved in the aforementioned analyses.
After being engaged, the relationship with suppliers must be efficient, ethical and respectful over the term of the contract. For this purpose, Itaú Unibanco has its business relations formalized in accordance with internal procedures and legal requirements. While the contract is in force, the parties must comply with and ensure adherence to contractual clauses, performance and quality of the services engaged.
Approved suppliers are monitored based on the risks associated with the service or product category. Monitoring criteria are the same of those used in the administrative assessment process, aimed at checking the initial condition assessed and may even lead to the termination of the business relationship with the supplier at any time if any risk is identified.
As a member of the National Financial System, our operations are regulated and follow the guidelines issued by regulation, self-regulation and inspection bodies, such as the Central Bank of Brazil (BACEN), National Monetary Commission (CMN), Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), Superintendency of Private Insurance (SUSEP), the Ministry of Labor, among others.
ii. Possible dependence on a few suppliers
The search for suppliers to the Bank should be an ongoing and permanent activity, seeking to strengthen the supplier base, ensure competition, better prices and opportunities and overcome critical supply issues. We have a current base of 15,649 approved suppliers that can provide services and supply products to Itaú. The persons in charge of procuring or contracting out services at the Bank should always encourage free competition and carry out, whenever possible, procurement processes involving at least two suppliers. Possible dependence may arise as a result of a supplier providing services on an exclusive basis.
iii. Possible volatility in suppliers’ prices
Price volatility related to supplier agreements is affected by macroeconomic parameters such as interest and foreign exchange rates, equities, commodities, indices (e.g., inflation), among others.

7.5. Describe the material effects of state regulation on the issuer’s activities, specifically commenting on:
a) The need for government authorization for the performance of activities and the history of the
Issuer’s relationship with the public authorities in obtaining such permits
In order to conduct its activities, the Issuer depends on prior authorization from the Central Bank of
Brazil.
Incorporated on September 9, 1943, under the name Banco da Metrópole de São Paulo S.A., registered with the São Paulo State Trade Board (JUCESP) under number 20,683 on May 22, 1944, the Issuer obtained a permit to operate as a financial institution on July 24, 1944. However, its history goes back to Itaú’s and Unibanco’s journeys. On September 27, 1924, the banking division of Casa Moreira Salles started to operate, and later on it became Banco Moreira Salles. The institution, which would pioneer an ongoing process of mergers and acquisitions, adopted the name Unibanco in 1975. The Itaú Group’s activities go back as far as 1944, when the members of the Egydio de Souza Aranha family founded Banco Federal de Crédito S.A. in São Paulo, presently Itaú Unibanco S.A.
In relation to capital markets, the Issuer’s shares were admitted for trading on B3 – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (B3 – Brazilian Exchange and OTC) (“B3”) in March 2003, replacing the shares of the institution currently named Itaú Unibanco S.A., which were admitted for trading on B3 (then named Bolsa Oficial de Valores de São Paulo) on October 20, 1944.
Supervision and Regulation
We are subject to regulation by, and supervision of, several entities, in the countries and for the segments in which we operate. The supervisory activities of these entities are essential to the structure of our business, and they directly impact our growth strategies. Below we describe the main entities that regulate and supervise our activities in Brazil:

rise to exposure to such client or group of affiliated clients that exceeds the threshold determined by the Central Bank.
Supplementary law establishing the independence of the Central Bank approved by the Brazilian Congress
On February 25, 2021, Supplementary Law No. 179 of February 24, 2021 (“Supplementary Law No. 179”) was published, establishing the purposes of the Central Bank and its autonomy, as well as regulating the appointment and removal of its president and directors. Among other matters, Supplementary
Law No. 179 sets forth that the Central Bank shall obtain the status of “special autarchy” characterized by the absence of ties to a Ministry, guardianship or hierarchical subordination, with technical, operational, administrative and financial autonomy. Additionally, the law also sets forth that, while the President of Brazil will still be responsible for appointing the president and the board of directors of the Central Bank (with the Brazilian Senate’s approval of their names), their terms of office will no longer coincide, which will further guarantee the independence of the Central Bank from political decisions. Supplementary Law No. 179 came into effect on the date of its publication.
Basel III Framework
On December 16, 2010, the Basel Committee issued its Basel III framework, which was revised and republished on June 1, 2011. The Basel III framework increases minimum capital requirements, creates new conservation and countercyclical buffers, changes risk-based capital measures, and introduces a new leverage limit and new liquidity standards in comparison to the former framework. The rules were phased in gradually and were fully implemented by January 1, 2019.
The Basel III framework requires banks to maintain minimum capital levels corresponding to the following percentages of risk-weighted assets: (i) a minimum common equity capital ratio of 4.5% composed of common shares; (ii) a minimum Tier 1 Capital ratio of 6.0%; and (iii) a minimum total capital ratio of 8.0%. In addition to the minimum capital requirements, Basel III requires a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% and each national regulator is given discretion to institute a “countercyclical buffer” if it perceives a greater system-wide risk to the banking system as the result of a build-up of excess credit growth in its jurisdiction. Further, Basel III introduces a new leverage ratio, defined as Tier 1 Capital divided by the bank’s total risk weighted exposure.
Basel III implemented a liquidity coverage ratio, or LCR, which requires affected banks to maintain sufficient high-quality liquid assets to cover the net cash outflows that could occur under a potential liquidity disruption scenario over a thirty-day period; and implemented a net stable funding ratio, or NSFR, which establishes a minimum amount of stable sources of funding that banks will be required to maintain based on the liquidity profile of the banks’ assets, as well as the potential for contingent liquidity needs arising from off-balance sheet commitments over a one-year period.
Additional requirements apply to non-common equity Tier 1 Capital or Tier 2 Capital instruments issued by internationally active banks. To be included in Additional Tier 1 Capital or Tier 2 Capital, an instrument must contain a provision that requires that, at the discretion of the relevant authority, such instrument be either written-off or converted into common shares upon a “trigger event”. A “trigger event” is the decision of a competent authority pursuant to which, for a bank to remain a feasible financial institution, it is necessary (i) to write-off an instrument, or (ii) to inject government funds, or equivalent support, into such bank, whichever occurs first. The requirements are applicable to all instruments issued after January 1, 2013 and those instruments qualified as capital issued before that date that do not comply with these requirements will be phased out of banks’ capital over a ten-year period, beginning on January 1, 2013.
Additional regulatory capital requirements apply to systemically important financial institutions, or G-SIFIs. The Basel Committee’s assessment methodology to determine which financial institutions are G-SIFIs is based on indicators that reflect the following aspects of G-SIFIs: (i) size; (ii) interconnectedness; (iii) lack of readily available substitute or financial institution infrastructure for the services provided; (iv) global or cross-jurisdictional activity; and (v) complexity. Each of these factors receives an equal weight of 20.0% in the assessment.


LOGO

The Basel Committee has also issued a framework for the regulation of domestic systemically important banks, or D-SIBs, which supplements the G-SIFI framework by focusing on the impact that the distress or failure of systemically important banks would have on the domestic economy of each country.
Implementation of Basel III in Brazil
Financial institutions based in Brazil are subject to capital measurement and standards based on a weighted risk-asset ratio, according to CMN Resolutions No. 4,192/2013 and No. 4,193/2013. Brazilian banks’ minimum total capital ratio is calculated as the sum of two components: Regulatory Capital (Patrimônio de Referência); and Additional Core Capital (Adicional de Capital Principal), both aligned to the guidelines of the Basel III framework.
Brazilian banks’ Regulatory Capital is comprised of Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital. Tier 1 Capital is further divided into two elements: Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (common equity capital and profit reserves after adjustments, or Capital Principal) and Additional Tier 1 Capital (hybrid debt and equity instruments authorized by the Central Bank, or Capital Complementar).
In order to qualify as Additional Tier 1 Capital or Tier 2 Capital, according to CMN Resolution No. 4,192/13, all instruments issued after October 1, 2013 by a Brazilian bank must contain loss-absorbency provisions, including a requirement that such instruments be automatically written off or converted into equity upon a “trigger event”. A “trigger event” is the earlier of: (i) Common Equity Tier 1 Capital being less than 5.125% of the risk-weighted assets for Additional Tier 1 Capital instruments and 4.5% for Tier 2 Capital instruments; (ii) the execution of a firm irrevocable written agreement for the government to inject capital in the financial institution; (iii) the Central Bank declaring the beginning of a special administration regime (Regime de Administração Especial Temporária, or RAET) or intervention in the financial institution; or (iv) a decision by the Central Bank, according to criteria established by the CMN, that the write-off or conversion of the instrument is necessary to maintain the bank as a viable financial institution and to mitigate relevant risks to the Brazilian financial system. Specific procedures and criteria for the conversion of shares and the write-off of outstanding debt related to funding instruments eligible to qualify as regulatory capital are established by CMN regulation. The legal framework applicable to financial bills (letras financeiras) was adapted to allow Brazilian financial institutions to issue Basel III-compliant debt instruments in the Brazilian market.
Existing hybrid instruments and subordinated debt previously approved by the Central Bank as eligible capital instruments may continue to qualify as Additional Tier 1 Capital or Tier 2 Capital, as the case may be, provided that they comply with the above requirements and a new authorization from the Central Bank is obtained. Instruments that do not comply with these requirements will be phased out as eligible capital instruments by deducting 10.0% of their book value per year from the amount that qualifies as Additional Tier 1 Capital or Tier 2 Capital. The first deduction occurred on October 1, 2013, and subsequent deductions will take place annually starting January 1, 2014 until January 1, 2022.
The Additional Core Capital requirement is subdivided into three elements: the capital conservation buffer (Adicional de Conservação de Capital Principal), the countercyclical capital buffer (Adicional Contracíclico de Capital Principal) and the higher loss absorbency requirement for domestic systemically important banks (Adicional de Capital Principal Sistêmico). The capital conservation buffer is aimed at increasing the loss absorption ability of financial institutions.
The countercyclical capital buffer can be imposed within a range by the Central Bank if it judges that credit growth is increasing systematic risk. The higher loss absorbency requirement for domestic systemically important banks seeks to address the impact that the distress or failure of Brazilian banks may have on the local economy. In the event of non-compliance with the Additional Core Capital requirement, certain restrictions will apply, including the inability of the financial institution to: (i) pay officers and directors their share of variable compensation; (ii) distribute dividends and interest on equity to stockholders; and (iii) repurchase its own shares and effect reductions in its share capital. We are considered domestic systemically important financial institution, hence having to fulfill the 1% Additional Core Capital for higher loss absorbency (Adicional de Capital Principal Sistêmico). The Central Bank’s implementation of the capital adequacy requirements under Basel III was phased-in from 2013 to 2019. In 2020, in response to the economic crisis related to the COVID-


LOGO

19 pandemic, the CMN temporarily eased the capital conservation buffer, which will gradually return to the fully implemented level in April 2022.
Moreover, since October 1, 2018, a minimum LCR in a standardized liquidity stress scenario requirement applies to banks with total assets that are equal or superior to 10% of the Brazilian GDP or to banks with relevant international activity (in such case, regardless of total assets). The calculation of the LCR follows the methodology set forth by the Central Bank which is aligned with the international guidelines. During periods of increased need for liquidity, banks may report a lower LCR than the minimum required ratio, provided that they also report to the Central Bank the causes for not meeting the minimum requirement, the contingent sources of liquidity it has available, and the measures it plans to adopt to be in compliance with the LCR requirement. Since April 1, 2016, banks must also publicly disclose their LCR on a quarterly basis.
The following table sets forth the minimum capital ratios and liquidity coverage ratio requirements under Basel III implemented by the Central Bank, as applicable to Itaú Unibanco Holding on December 31, 2020. The figures presented below refer to the percentage of our risk-weighted assets:
Basel III Requirements 2020 Common Equity Tier I 4,5% Tier I 6,0% Total Capital 8,0% Additional Capital Buffers (ACP) 2,25% conservation (1) 1,25% countercyclical (2) 0% systemic 1,0% Common Equity Tier I + ACP 6,75% Total Capital + ACP 10,25% Prudential adjustments deductions 100%
(1) For purposes of calculating the Conservation capital buffer, BACEN Resolution 4,783 establishes, for defined periods, percentages to be applied to the RWA value with a gradual increase until April/22, when it reaches 2.5%.
(2) The countercyclical capital buffer is fixed by the Financial Stability Committee (Comef) based on discussions about the pace of credit expansion, and currently is set zero (BECAN Communication No. 36,830/21). Should the requirement increase, the new percentage takes effect twelve months after the announcement.
Limit to be observed 2020(1)
liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) l00%
(1) Mininum requirement valid from 1 January, 2019 onwards.
Since October 1, 2015, banks are required to prepare public disclosures of their leverage ratios (Razão de Alavancagem, or RA) on a quarterly basis. In November 2017, the CMN established the minimum limit for the Net Stable Funding Ratio (Índice de Liquidez de Longo Prazo, or NSFR) and the Leverage Ratio (Razão de Alavancagem, or RA) to be observed by certain Brazilian Financial institutions, including those classified as Segment 1 pursuant to CMN regulation (such as us — please refer to item “Segmentation for the proportional application of the prudential regulation” for more information), and the terms for compliance with such requirements.
The NSFR corresponds to the ratio between the Available Stable Funds (Recursos Estáveis Disponíveis, or ASF) and the Required Stable Funds (Recursos Estáveis Requeridos, or RSF) of the financial institution. This new rule for NSFR, which came into effect on October 1, 2018, determines that the minimum limit for the NSFR for Segment 1 financial institutions is 100%. The RA, which calculation methodology was established by the Central Bank in 2015, consists of the ratio between the sum of the Common Equity Tier 1 Capital and the Additional Tier 1 Capital and the total exposure of the financial institution ascertained as established by the applicable regulation. The RA rule enacted in November 2017 came into effect on January 1, 2018 and determined the threshold of 3% as the minimum requirement for the RA for Segment 1 financial institutions (which is our case).
CMN regulation also defines the entities that compose the consolidated enterprise level (conglomerado prudencial) of Brazilian financial institutions and establishes the requirement that a financial institution prepare and file with the Central Bank monthly consolidated financial statements at the consolidated enterprise level (conglomerado prudencial) pursuant to the parameters defined therein. Such financial statements should also be audited by external auditors on a semi-annual basis. Since January 1, 2015, minimum capital and ratio requirements apply at the consolidated enterprise level (conglomerado prudencial).


LOGO

Brazilian financial institutions are also required to implement a capital management structure compatible with the nature of their transactions, the complexity of the products and services it offers, as well as with the extent of its exposure to risks. In February 2017, the CMN enacted a rule that unified and expanded Brazilian regulation on risk and capital management. Such regulation provides that risk management must be conducted through an integrated effort by the relevant entity and sets out different structures for risk and capital management, which are applicable for different risk profiles.
According to such regulation, capital management is defined as a process that includes: (i) monitoring and controlling the financial institution’s capital; (ii) assessing capital needs in light of the risks to which the financial institution is subject; and (iii) setting goals and conducting capital planning in order to meet capital needs due to changes in market conditions. Financial institutions should publish a report describing the structure of their capital management at least on an annual basis. Disclosure and reporting of risk management matters, risk-weighted asset calculation, and adequate compliance with regulatory capital requirements are regulated by the Central Bank and reflect the so-called “Pillar 3” of regulatory capital recommended under Basel III, aimed at improving governance and disclosure.
Pillar 3 Report
Since January 1, 2020, the Central Bank requires certain financial institutions to furnish a Pillar 3 Report. We are required to publish this report on a consolidated basis covering the following topics:
prudential indicators and risk management; comparison between accounting and prudential information; capital composition; macroprudential indicators; leverage ratio (RA); liquidity indicators; credit risk; counterparty credit risk (CCR); securitization exposures; market risk; risk of interest rate fluctuation in instruments classified in the banking book (IRRBB); and remuneration of administrators.
The Pillar 3 Report must be furnished on a quarterly, biannual or annual basis, according to the type of information being disclosed.
In addition to the rules issued in accordance with the criteria set forth in Basel III, in July, 2013, Law No. 12,838 was enacted, allowing the determination of deemed credit based on deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences resulting from allowances for loan losses, which, in practice, exempts financial institutions from deducting this type of credit from its core capital. The law also changes the rules for the issue of subordinated debt, requiring the inclusion of clauses for the suspension of the stipulated compensation and the extinction of the credit right or its conversion into shares, and conditions stockholders’ remuneration to compliance with the prudential requirements established by the CMN.
Global Systemically Important Financial Institutions (G-SIFI) Assessment in Brazil
The Central Bank has adopted the same indicators set out by the Basel Committee to determine if Brazilian financial institutions qualify as G-SIFIs. Please see “Basel III Framework,” for further details. This assessment is required of banks with total exposure – the denominator for the leverage ratio – in excess of EUR 200 billion, individually. However, no additional loss absorbency requirements for Brazilian G-SIFIs have been established. We were not included on the latest list of G-SIFIs issued on November 11, 2020, by the Financial Stability Board. The next update is expected in November 2021.

Recovery Plans for Systematically Important Financial Institutions
On June 30, 2016, the CMN issued a rule providing stricter guidelines for recovery plans (Planos de Recuperação) for Brazil’s systemically important financial institutions. The rule which incorporated recommendations from the Financial Stability Board, requires financial institutions to prepare recovery plans that aim to re-establish adequate levels of capital and liquidity and to preserve the viability of such institutions under stress scenarios. The guidelines require, among other things, that subject financial institutions must identify their critical functions for the National Financial System (Sistema Financeiro Nacional) and their core business lines, monitor indicators and their critical levels, adopt stress-testing scenarios, predict recovery strategies, assess possible risks and barriers related to the strategies and define clear and transparent governance procedures, as well as effective communication plans with key stakeholders. The rule provides for the submission of such recovery plans by December 31st, annually.
Segmentation for the Proportional Application of the Prudential Regulation
On January 30, 2017, the CMN issued a resolution establishing segmentation for financial institutions, financial institution groups and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank for proportional application of the prudential regulation, considering the size, international activity and risk profile of members of each segment. According to such resolution, out of the five possible segments, we are classified as Segment 1, which is composed of universal banks, commercial banks, investment banks, foreign exchange banks and federal saving banks that (a) have a size equivalent or superior to 10% of the Brazilian GDP; or that (b) perform relevant international activities, independently from the magnitude of the institution.
Brazilian Covered Bond (“Letra Imobiliária Garantida” – “LIG”)
Law No. 13,097/2015 created the Brazilian covered bond (Letra Imobiliária Garantida, or LIG), a debt instrument for funding Brazilian financial institutions that follows the covered bonds structure. Since the law’s adoption, both the CMN and the Central Bank have regulated its provisions and established procedures relating to the issuance of Brazilian covered bonds.
Since then, Itaú Unibanco completed two bullet issuances of Brazilian covered bonds, the first on December 14, 2018 in the total amount of R$1.224 billion and the second on April 24, 2019, in the total amount of R$350 million.
On July 24, 2019, Itaú Unibanco established its first Brazilian covered bond program. The first issuance under the covered bond program took place on July 29, 2019, in the total amount of R$1 million. As of December 31, 2020, the accrued value of the outstanding Brazilian covered bonds issued by Itaú Unibanco, which includes the bullet issuances as well as the issuances under the program (as reflected in our financial statements), amounted to R$11,029 million.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Exposure
Transactions involving the sale and purchase of foreign currency in Brazil may only be conducted by institutions authorized to do so by the Central Bank. There are no limits for long or short positions in foreign currency for banks authorized to carry out transactions on the foreign exchange market. Currently there is no compulsory deposit requirement rate on the foreign currency short position held by financial institutions.
In accordance with CMN regulation, financial institutions in Brazil may raise funds abroad, either through direct loans or through the issuance of debt securities. Funds raised accordingly may be freely invested in Brazil, including but not limited to on-lending to Brazilian companies and financial institutions. Brazilian banks authorized to operate in foreign currency markets which hold regulatory capital higher than R$5 billion may also use these funds to grant loans abroad to Brazilian companies, their offshore subsidiaries and to foreign companies controlled by Brazilians or to acquire securities issued or guaranteed by such companies in the primary market. Cross-border loans, in which one party is in Brazil and the other party is abroad, require previous registration with the Central Bank, which may establish limits on the conditions of such foreign currency loan transactions.


LOGO

Financial institutions may also grant loans in or indexed to a foreign currency to their clients’ trade-related activities, such as by granting advances on foreign exchange contracts (Adiantamento sobre Contrato de Câmbio – ACC), advances on delivered export register (Adiantamento sobre Cambiais Entregues – ACE) or export or import prepayment agreements (Pré-Pagamento de Exportação e Financiamento à Importação), all in accordance with Brazilian regulations on foreign exchange markets and international capital flows.
The Central Bank and the Brazilian government frequently change rules and regulations applicable to foreign currency borrowing and loans in accordance with the economic scenario and Brazilian monetary policy.
In addition, the legislation sets forth that the total exposure in gold and other assets and liabilities indexed or linked to the foreign exchange rate variation undertaken by financial institutions (including their offshore branches), and their direct and indirect subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, may not exceed 30.0% of their regulatory capital.
New Foreign Exchange Bill Approved by the Brazilian House of Representatives
By initiative of the Central Bank, the President of Brazil has presented to the Congress a draft bill to reformulate the Brazilian foreign exchange market (“New Foreign Exchange Bill”). The draft also includes provisions regarding the Brazilian capital held abroad and foreign capital held in Brazil. The initiative intends to modernize, simplify and increase legal certainty associated with the current regulatory framework for Brazilian foreign exchange legislation.
The main aspects of the New Foreign Exchange Bill are: (i) the confirmation, at the legal level, that foreign exchange transactions may be carried out freely (provided that through entities authorized to operate in this market and subject to applicable rules); (ii) the granting of broad powers to the CMN and the Central Bank to regulate the foreign exchange market and its operations; (iii) the expansion of the international correspondence activity of Brazilian banks; (iv) the possibility of Brazilian banking institutions to invest and lend abroad funds raised in Brazil or abroad; (v) the exclusion of foreign currency purchase and sale operations of up to US$1,000 carried out between individuals on an occasional and non-professional basis, from its scope; and (vi) the granting of powers to the monetary authorities to establish situations in which the prohibition of private offsetting of credits between residents and nonresidents, as well as the payment in foreign currency in Brazil, would not apply.
On December 22, 2020, the Brazilian House of Representatives approved the draft of the New Foreign Exchange Bill. The House voted on many motions by representatives for amendment or redaction of specific sections of the New Foreign Exchange Bill on February 10, 2021 with no material alterations to the proposal. Considering the approval by the Brazilian House of Representatives, the bill will be sent to the Brazilian Senate for approval. As of this date, it is not possible to estimate if and when it will be approved by the Brazilian Senate, or which changes (if any) will be approved by the Senate.
Central Bank Launches Public Consultation to Improve Foreign Exchange Regulations
The Central Bank launched Public Consultation No. 079/2020, which contains a proposal to improve foreign exchange regulations in the context of technological innovations and new business models related to international payments and transfers.
The improvements considered recent developments related to international payments and transfers, advancing competition, financial inclusion and innovation in the sector within the possibilities allowed by the current legal framework. According to the Central Bank, the structural innovations in the Brazilian foreign exchange market can only be implemented after updating the legal framework of the foreign exchange market through the approval of the New Foreign Exchange Bill.
The proposal seeks to expand competition in the segment of remittances, provide better services and facilitate the execution of these transactions. It also aims to significantly improve the domestic payments market and foster the use by the public of payment accounts by bringing such alternatives to the foreign exchange market.
In this sense, the proposal includes the following measures: (i) allowing payment institutions authorized


LOGO

to operate by the Central Bank to require authorization to operate in the foreign exchange market for the intermediation of certain operations and limited to USD100 thousand per transaction; and (ii) regulating the use of prepaid payment accounts held by Brazilians residing, domiciled or headquartered abroad, to be maintained at an institution authorized to operate in the foreign exchange market.
The proposal also consolidates and modernizes the regulation of international payment or transfer services in the foreign exchange market, providing uniform treatment for the acquisition of goods and services carried out with the participation of issuers of payment instruments for international use, international payment facilitators and intermediaries and representatives in international purchases. The provider of such services would now be referred to in the exchange regulations by the term eFX.
Large Exposure Limits
We are legally prevented from granting loans or advances, and guarantees, including derivative transactions, underwriting or holding in our investment portfolio securities of any clients or group of affiliated clients that, in the aggregate, exceeds the threshold determined by the Central Bank. On July 31, 2018 the CMN released a resolution in order to comply with the Basel III reforms, introducing a new basis for calculating the exposure limits applicable to financial institutions classified as Segment 1 to their Tier 1 Regulatory Capital and increasing the scope of transactions that increase exposure to clients subject to the limit, including exposure from securities and derivatives held in our investment portfolio. The maximum exposure to any individual counterparty or group of connected counterparties of a Segment 1 financial institution is 25% of its Tier 1 Regulatory Capital, and to concentrated individual clients or group of connected clients of such Segment 1 financial institution is 600% of its Tier 1 Regulatory Capital (a concentrated individual client means, for the purpose of the rule, any one client to which exposure is equal to or higher than 10% of its Tier 1 Regulatory Capital).
Under this exposure limits, the following entities are considered to be different clients: (i) the Brazilian government, including the Central Bank; (ii) an entity which 50% or more of its voting capital is held directly by the Brazilian Government, jointly with its controlled entities; (iii) a State of the Federative Republic of Brazil or the Federal District, jointly with its controlled entities and with entities which are financially dependent on a State, the Federal District or their controlled entities; (iv) each Brazilian municipal district, jointly with its controlled entities and with entities which are financially dependent on a municipality or its controlled entities; (v) each central government of a foreign jurisdiction; (vi) each central bank of a foreign jurisdiction, if this entity is not included in the central government; (vii) each entity which 50% or more of its voting capital is held directly by a central government of a foreign jurisdiction, jointly with its controlled entities and with entities that are financially dependent on it; (viii) a governmental body of a foreign jurisdiction, jointly with its controlled entities and with entities that are financially dependent on it or its controlled entities; and (ix) any other entity, public or private, which share the credit risk calculated by the financial institution according to CMN regulations.
The rule provides that, for certain financial institutions (including those classified as Segment 1, which is our segment), individual exposures to the Brazilian Federal Union (including the Brazilian Central Bank) as well as to central governments or to central banks of foreign jurisdictions are not subject to the observance of the large exposure limits.
Banks must identify possible related counterparties, considering its economic interdependence in all cases where the sum of all exposures to one specific counterparty exceeds 5% of the eligible capital base. Two or more counterparties have an economic interdependence relationship whenever one experiences financial difficulties and the other, as a result, would also be likely to encounter financial difficulties, including those related to funding, payment of obligations and insolvency.
Counterparties identified as economically interdependent must be treated as a single counterparty that is subject to the aforementioned requirements.


LOGO

Risk Weighted Asset Calculation
The calculation of risk exposure is based on several factors set forth by the Central Bank regulations and impacts the capital requirements. The components take into consideration the type of risk and include the parameters and procedures for calculation of the risk weighted asset, or RWA, to determine the capital requirements resulting from each risk exposure. The Central Bank has been frequently changing and updating the rules and regulations for the RWA calculation.
Financial Bills (“Letras Financeiras”)
According to Law No. 12,249 of June11, 2010, as amended, Brazilian financial institutions can issue financial bills (letras financeiras), a debt funding instrument for financial institution aimed at larger volumes and longer terms. The regulatory framework for financial bills permits financial institutions to issue such instruments with subordination clauses as Basel III-compliant. As per the CMN Resolutions Nos. 4,733 of 2019 and 4,192 of 2013, the main characteristics of Basel III-compliant financial bills are:
The possibility of issuance of financial bills convertible into equity. The conversion may not be requested by the investor or the issuer financial institution;
The suspension of interest payments in case of non-compliance with capital requirements. Additionally, in order to preserve the regular functioning of the Brazilian financial system, the Central Bank may determine that financial bills be converted into equity or be written-off. These determinations will not be considered as a default by financial institutions and will not accelerate the maturity of its other debts;
The possibility of issuance of perpetual financial bills, which will only mature in case of default on interest payments or at the time of the dissolution of the financial institution; and
The possibility of a broad authorization for the use of funds raised by the issuance of financial bills in the composition of the issuer’s Regulatory Capital (such authorization is pending Central Bank’s regulation).
In addition, CMN Resolution 4,733 of 2019 establishes important provisions for the issuance of financial bills such as:
Certain due diligence obligations to be observed by the issuer or any intermediary institutions involved in the distribution, placement and trading of the financial bills, in order to ensure the provision of information regarding the investment and its suitability to the investor’s profile; and
The flexibilization of the rates that can be used for the remuneration of financial bills, allowing the use of floating rates regardless of a combination with a fixed rate or any other rate (fixed or floating) that is publicly known and regularly calculated.
On September 24, 2019, the Central Bank issued Circular 3,963, a rule systematizing the requirements for the registration of financial bills in authorized central depositary entities, which were previously dispersed in different documents. The new rule establishes in its annexes the content of the subordination clauses that must be included in financial bills issued to compose the issuer’s Regulatory Capital.
Establishment of a Succession Policy
Financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank are required to maintain a succession policy for its management, which shall cover recruiting, promotion, election and retention processes, based on rules that regulate the identification, evaluation and training of senior management positions.
Our Board of Directors approved our Manager’s Succession Policy in accordance with CMN’s resolution. Our succession policy aims to consolidate the internal procedures and practices of the Itaú Unibanco Group regarding the succession of our management team.

Code of Corporate Governance
The Brazilian Corporate Governance Code for publicly-held companies (Código Brasileiro de Governança Corporativa – Companhias Abertas) sets forth corporate governance-related principles, guidelines and actions applicable to publicly-held companies and determines that companies adopt the “apply or explain” model in respect of its principles, guidelines and actions. Pursuant to this code, companies must furnish to CVM a report regarding their adherence to the Brazilian Corporate Governance Code within seven months of the closing date of the fiscal year. The implementation of the Corporate Governance Code was integrated in the local regulatory framework by means of the CVM Ruling No. 586/17.
In addition, the CMN has included the principles and criteria of corporate governance of financial institutions established by the Basel Committee into the Brazilian regulatory framework, through the “Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision.”
CMN rules establish the terms for the remittance of information on the management of financial institutions to the Central Bank, controlling group and relevant shareholders, including the obligation to communicate to the regulator any information that may affect the reputation of any person classified in one of such categories. For this purpose, financial institutions must provide a communication channel which allows employees, contributors, clients, users, associates, or services providers to anonymously report situations indicating illegal acts of any nature related to the institution. The financial institutions must also determine the internal body responsible for receiving the information and complying with the reporting obligations.
Anti-Corruption Law
The Brazilian anti-corruption law establishes that legal entities will have strict liability (regardless of fault or willful misconduct) if they are involved in any form of bribery. The law also encompasses other injurious acts contrary to the Brazilian or foreign public administration, including bid rigging and obstruction of justice. The law provides for heavy penalties, both through administrative and judicial proceedings including determination of dissolution of a company, prohibition against undertaking to finance with public entities and prohibition against participating in public biddings.
In addition, the law authorizes the public administrative authorities responsible for the investigation to enter into leniency agreements. The self-disclosure of violations and cooperation by legal entities may result in the reduction of fines and other sanctions.
The regulation also provides parameters for the application of the anti-corruption law, including with respect to penalties and compliance programs. Please refer:
(i) Our Anti-corruption Corporate Policy is available on our Investor Relations website.
(ii) Our Corporate Conduct, Integrity and Ethics Policy is available on our Investor Relations website, from which you can electronically access further details about our Integrity and Ethics Program and guidelines for situations of conflicts of interests.
(iii) We also have a webpage dedicated to Integrity and Ethics in our Investor Relations website, from which you can access further details about our Integrity and Ethics Program.
Compensation of Directors and Officers of Financial Institutions
According to rules set forth by the CMN, Brazilian financial institutions are required to have a compensation policy. If variable compensation is to be paid to management, at least 50% of the total compensation should be paid in shares or share-based instruments and at least 40% of the total compensation should be deferred for future payment for at least three years. If the institution records a significant decrease in the realized recurring profit or a negative result during the deferral period, the deferred and unpaid portions of the compensation should be reversed proportionally to the decrease in result, in order to minimize the loss incurred by the financial institutions and their stockholders. Our compensation policy, applicable to directors and officers in Brazil (constituting the major part of the management population of the Itaú Unibanco Group),


LOGO

complies with CMN’s regulatory requirements.
Our compensation principles and practices worldwide comply with each local regulation and seek to increase alignment between the interests of our stockholders and our management.
Antitrust Regulation
The Brazilian Antitrust Law requires that transactions resulting in economic concentration should be submitted to CADE, the Brazilian antitrust authority, for prior approval in the event these transactions meet the following criteria: (i) the economic group of any of the parties to a transaction recorded, in the fiscal year prior to that of the transaction, minimum gross revenues of R$750 million; and (ii) at least one of the other economic groups involved in the transaction recorded, for the same time period, minimum gross revenues of R$75 million.
The closing of a transaction prior to CADE’s approval subjects the parties to fines ranging from
R$60,000 to R$60 million, the nullity of the relevant agreement, and potential administrative proceedings.
In addition to submitting such transactions to CADE’s approval, financial institutions are required by
Circular No. 3,590/2012 of the Central Bank (updated by Circular No. 3,800/2016) to submit to the Central
Bank’s antitrust approval any concentration acts involving two or more financial institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank in the following cases: (i) acquisition of corporate control, (ii) a merger, (iii) transfer of the business to another financial institution, and (iv) contracts or legal entities, aimed at cooperation in the financial sector; (v) acquisition of a minority stake of at least 5% of the voting shares of a financial institution.
It is worth mentioning that legislations in force in other jurisdictions may require that concentration acts be submitted to the relevant antitrust authority. The Brazilian antitrust law provides for penalties in the event of violations of the economic order. Accordingly, an undertaking in a dominant position (as the law assumes of one holding over 20% interest) in a certain market in which it operates, which, irrespective thereof, carries out an illegal interaction with competitors, including through professional associations, may be subject to an administrative fine of 0.1% to 20% of the gross revenues of the group operating in the industry affected by such violation and to the divestiture of assets, among other penalties. Additionally, the antitrust legislation of other jurisdictions, such as the U.S. (Sherman Act and Clayton Antitrust Act) and the European (Articles 101 and 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union), may also be applicable to companies whenever these carry out alleged anticompetitive practices with effects in the aforementioned jurisdictions.
Our Antitrust Corporate Policy is available on our Investors Relations website.
Treatment of Past Due Debts
Brazilian financial institutions are required to classify their credit transactions (including leasing transactions and other transactions characterized as credit advances) at different levels and recognize provisions according to the level attributed to each such transaction. The classification is based on the financial condition of the clients the terms and conditions of the transaction and the period of time during which the transaction is past due, if any. For purposes of Central Bank requirements, transactions are classified as level AA, A, B, C, D, E, F, G or H, with AA being the highest classification. Credit classifications must be reviewed on a monthly basis and, apart from additional provisions required by the Central Bank which are deemed necessary by the management of financial institutions, each level has a specific allowance percentage that is applied to it and which we use to calculate our allowance for loan losses, as specified in more detail in the table below:
Classification (1) AA A B C D E F G H Allowance (%) 0 0.5 1 3 10 30 50 70 100 Past due (in days) - - 15 to 30 31 to 60 61 to 90 91 to 120 121 to 150 151 to 180 Over 180
(1) Our credit classification also takes into account the client’s credit profile, which may negatively impact the past due classification.


LOGO

Under IFRS, as issued by the IASB, the allowance for loan losses is based on our internally developed expected loss models, which calculate the allowance for loan losses by multiplying the probability of default by the clients or counterparty, or PD, by the potential for recovery on defaulted credits (LGD) for each transaction, as described in Note 2.4(d) I – Classification and Measurement of Financial Assets and Note 32 Risk and Capital Management, our audited consolidated financial statements. The risk levels are categorized as:
Lower risk: PD lower or equal than 4.44%
Satisfactory: PD from 4.44% up to 25.95%
Higher risk: PD higher than 25.95%
Credit-Impaired: loans classified in Stage 3
Bank insolvency
The insolvency of financial institutions is handled pursuant to applicable laws and regulations by the Central Bank, which initiates and monitors all applicable administrative proceedings. There are three types of special regimes that may be imposed to either privately-held financial institutions or state-owned (other than federal government-owned) financial institutions or similar institutions:
(i) Temporary special administration regime or RAET: a less severe special regime with limited duration which allows financial institutions to continue to operate – the whole management loses its offices and is replaced by a steering committee appointed by the Central Bank with broad management powers, which will adopt of measures aimed at the resumption of the financial institution’s regular activities. If resumption is not possible, this regime may be turned into an extrajudicial liquidation.
(ii) Intervention: a time-limited regime in which the Central Bank appoints an intervenor that takes charge of the financial institution’s management, suspending its regular activities and dismissing the financial institution’s management, with the main purpose of preventing the continuation of certain irregularities and the aggravation of the financial situation of the financial institution, which can put assets at risk and harm the financial institution’s creditors – it suspends all actions related to payment obligations of the financial institution, prevents the early settlement or maturity of its obligations and freezes pre-existing deposits.
(iii) Extrajudicial liquidation: process of dissolution of the company in cases of unrecoverable insolvency or severe violations of the rules that regulate a financial institution’s activities. The extrajudicial liquidation aims at promoting the liquidation of the existing assets for the payment of creditors, with the return of any amounts left to stockholders. Controlling stockholders may be held responsible for remaining liabilities.
In the course of the special regimes described above, the steering committee, the intervenor, and the liquidator may, when authorized by the Central Bank: (i) dispose of assets and rights of the financial institution to third parties and (ii) proceed with corporate restructuring processes in the financial institution or its subsidiaries, among other possible measures of similar effect.


LOGO

Financial institutions may also be subject to the bankruptcy regime.
On December 24, 2020, the President of Brazil sanctioned Law 14,112 (“Law 14,112”), which overhauls the current Brazilian Bankruptcy and Reorganization Law (Law 11,101/05) in several material aspects. Law 14,112 will enter into effect on January 23, 2021. It is possible that certain changes will potentially affect material matters concerning enforcement and priority rankings, such as: (i) the possibility of creditors putting forward an alternative judicial reorganization plan; (ii) new rules on the approval of post-petition loans in judicial reorganization and on priority claims in case of conversion to bankruptcy liquidation; (iii) more flexible quorum and mechanics of the extrajudicial reorganization process; (iv) new rules to expedite the bankruptcy liquidation process; (v) new methods for restructuring of the debtor’s tax liabilities and installment payments, as well as new taxation schemes; and (vi) incorporation of rules on cross-border insolvency proceedings into the Brazilian framework.
Law 14,112 replicates, with some adjustments, the provisions of the UNCITRAL Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency. As a result, Law 14,112 sets out some rules on access of foreign representatives to courts in Brazil, the method and requirements for recognition of foreign main and ancillary proceedings, authorization for the debtor and his representatives to act in other countries, methods of communication and cooperation between foreign authorities and representatives and the Brazilian jurisdiction, and the processing of concurrent proceedings.
Law 14,112 also sets forth, among other measures, (i) a protection for creditors that agree on the conversion of debt into equity against potential transfer of liability with regard to the debtor’s obligations; (ii) the stay period and constraints on the assets of the debtor under judicial reorganization; (iii) conciliation and mediation measures before and during judicial reorganization proceedings; and (iv) the rules on procedural and substantive consolidation. Law 14,112 also sets out that a bankruptcy decree does not reach beyond the bankrupt itself, save when the disregard doctrine is to apply.
Deposit Insurance
In the event of intervention, extrajudicial liquidation or liquidation of a financial institution in a bankruptcy proceeding, the Credit Insurance Fund, or FGC, a deposit insurance system, guarantees the maximum amount of R$250,000 for certain deposits and credit instruments held by an individual, a company or another legal entity with a financial institution (or financial institutions of the same economic group). Such deposits and credit instruments contracted as of December 22, 2017, are subject to an additional limit: the total coverage of the referred guarantee is R$1,000,000 per investor regardless of the number of accounts held in different financial groups and such limit is valid for a period of four years. The resources of the FGC come primarily from mandatory contributions from all Brazilian financial institutions that receive deposits from clients, currently at a monthly rate of 0.01% of the amount of the balances of accounts corresponding to the financial instruments that are the subject matter of the ordinary guarantee, even if the related credits are not fully covered by FGC, and certain special contributions. Deposits and funds raised abroad are not guaranteed by the FGC. Credits of financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank, complementary welfare entities, insurance companies, capitalization companies, investment clubs and investment funds, as well as those representing any interest in or financial instrument held by such entities, are not protected by the ordinary guarantee of FGC.
Payment of Creditors in Liquidation
In the event of extrajudicial liquidation of a financial institution or liquidation of a financial institution in a bankruptcy proceeding, the salaries of employees and the related labor claims up to a certain amount, secured credits and tax charges have priority in any claims against the entity in liquidation. The payment of unsecured credits, including deposits from regular retail clients that are not guaranteed by the FGC, is subject to the prior payment of preferred credits. Additionally, upon the payment of the deposits guaranteed by the FGC, the FGC becomes an unsecured creditor of the estate in liquidation.
Insurance Regulation
With governmental approval, insurance companies in Brazil may offer all types of insurance (except for workers’ compensation insurance) directly to clients or through qualified brokers.


LOGO

Insurance companies must set aside reserves to be invested in specific types of securities. As a result, insurance companies are among the main investors in the Brazilian securities market and subject to CMN regulations regarding the investment of technical reserves.
In the event an insurance company is declared bankrupt, the insurance company will be subject to a special procedure administered by SUSEP or by ANS. If an insurance company is declared bankrupt and (i) its assets are not sufficient to guarantee at least half of the unsecured credits or (ii) procedures relating to acts that may be considered bankruptcy-related crimes are in place, the insurance company will be subject to ordinary bankruptcy procedures.
There is currently no restriction on foreign investments in insurance companies in Brazil.
Brazilian legislation establishes that insurance companies must buy reinsurance to the extent their liabilities exceed their technical limits under the rules of the regulatory bodies (CNSP and SUSEP), and reinsurance contracts may be entered into through a direct negotiation between the insurance and reinsurance companies or through a reinsurance broker authorized to operate in Brazil.
Anti-Money Laundering Regulation
The Brazilian anti-money laundering law (Law No. 9,613, as amended) establishes the basic framework to prevent and punish money laundering as a crime. It prohibits the concealment or dissimulation of origin, location, availability, handling or ownership of assets, rights or financial resources directly or indirectly originated from crimes, subjecting the agents of these illegal practices to imprisonment, temporary disqualification from managing enterprises for up to ten years and monetary fines.
The Brazilian anti-money laundering law also created the Council for Financial Activities Control (COAF), which is subordinated to the Central Bank and performs a key role in the Brazilian system of preventing and combating money laundering, financing of terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
In compliance with the Brazilian anti-money laundering law and related regulations enacted by the Central Bank, including the rules applicable to procedures that must be adopted by financial institutions to prevent and combat money laundering and terrorism financing, as well as in response to the recommendation of Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and United Nations Security Council (UNSC), financial institutions in Brazil must establish internal control and procedures aiming at:
identifying and knowing their clients, which includes determining if they are PEPs, and also identifying Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs). These records should be kept up-to-date;
checking the origin of funds of a client, as well as the compatibility between the movement of its funds and its economic and financial capacity;
carrying out a prior analysis of new products and services, including the use of new technologies, if applicable, under the perspective of money laundering prevention;
keeping records of all transactions carried out or financial services provided on behalf of a certain client or for that client;
reporting to COAF, within one business day, any transaction deemed to be suspicious by the financial institution, as well as all transactions in cash equivalent to or higher than R$50,000, without informing the involved person or any third party;
applying special attention to (i) unusual transactions or proposed transactions with no apparent economic or legal bases; (ii) transactions involving PEPs, (iii) indication of evading client identification and transaction registering procedures; (iv) clients and transactions for which the UBO cannot be identified; (v) transactions originated from or destined to countries that do not fully comply with the recommendations of the FATF; and (vi) situations in which it is not possible to keep the clients’ identification records duly updated;
determining criteria for hiring personnel and offering anti-money laundering training for employees;
establishing procedures to be complied with by all branches and subsidiaries of Brazilian financial institutions located abroad with respect to anti-money laundering;


LOGO

establishing that any institutions authorized to operate in the Brazilian foreign exchange market with financial institutions located abroad, must verify whether the foreign financial institution is physically located in the jurisdiction where it was incorporated and licensed, and that it is subject to effective supervision;
monitoring transactions and situations which could be considered suspicious for anti-money laundering purposes;
reporting to COAF the occurrence of suspicious transactions, as required under applicable regulations, and also, at least once a year, whether or not suspicious transactions are verified, in order to certify the non-occurrence of transactions subject to reporting to COAF
(negative report);
requiring clients to inform the financial institution, at least three business days in advance, of their intention to withdraw amounts equal to or exceeding R$50,000;
maintaining specific records of all operations carried out, products and services contracted by financial institutions, including deposit, contribution, withdrawal, payments, receipts and transfers of funds;
ensuring that policies, procedures and internal controls are commensurate with its size and volume of transactions; and
unavailability, without delay, of goods, values and rights of possession or ownership and all other rights, real or personal, owned, directly or indirectly, of natural or legal persons subject to sanctions by the resolutions of the UNSC.
Non-compliance with any of the obligations above subjects the financial institution and its officers to penalties ranging from: (i) formal notice, (ii) fines (from 1.0% to 200.0% of the amount of the transaction, 200.0% of the profit generated thereby, or a fine of up to R$20,000,000), (iii) rendering executive officers ineligible for holding any management position in financial institutions, to (iv) the cancellation of the financial institution’s license to operate.
Central Bank Circular No. 3,978 of 2020, which came into force on October 1, 2020, also requires that financial institutions maintain Anti-Money Laundering Program (in compliance with regulatory standards) and conduct periodic Internal Risk Assessments.
Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs)
According to the Central Bank, PEPs are public agents who hold or have held a relevant public position, as well as their representatives, family members or other close associates, over the past five years, in Brazil or other countries, territories and foreign jurisdictions. It also includes their legal entities. Financial institutions must develop and implement internal procedures to identify PEPs and obtain higher level of approval than the person responsible for contracting, according to Risk-Based Approach, prior to establishing any relationship with those individuals. They should also adopt reinforced and continuous surveillance actions regarding transactions with PEPs and report all suspicious transactions to COAF.
Leasing Regulation
Although leasing transactions are not classified as credit transactions under Brazilian legislation, the Central Bank regulates and oversees leasing transactions. The parties involved in a leasing transaction are the “lessor” (the bank) and “lessee” (our client). The leased asset, owned by the lessor, is delivered to be used by the lessee until the end of the contract, when the lessee may opt to either acquire it or return it to the lessor or renew the contract for a new period.
Brazilian legislation establishes a specific methodology to account for the profits or losses in leasing transactions and all information that should be included in a lease agreement. The guaranteed residual amount paid by a lessee should correspond to a minimum return required for the transaction to be viable for the lessor, whether the purchase option is exercised or not. The laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions, such as those related to reporting requirements, capital adequacy and leverage, assets composition limits and allowance for losses, are also generally applicable to leasing companies.


LOGO

Correspondent Agents
We may engage other entities to provide certain services to our clients, including customer service. These entities are generally called correspondents, and our relationship with correspondents is regulated by the Central Bank. Among other requirements, the Central Bank establishes that employees of all correspondent agents must hold a technical certification authorizing them to serve customers involved in credit and leasing operations.
Regulation of the Brazilian Securities Market
According to the Brazilian Corporate Law, a company is considered publicly-traded or closely-held depending on whether the securities issued by it are accepted for trading in the securities market or not. All publicly-held companies, such as our company, are registered with the CVM, are subject to specific regulations and are also subject to information disclosure and reporting requirements.
Disclosure Requirements
Under CVM rules, publicly-traded companies are subject to disclosure requirements and rules governing the use of material information. Any decision that may reasonably influence the price of the securities issued by a publicly-held company or the decision of investors to buy, sell, or hold these securities, is considered material.
The CVM improved the quality of the information that must be presented in periodic filings by securities issuers by requiring such issuers to file a “Reference Form” with the CVM. This form was modeled after IOSCO’s shelf registration system in gathering all of the issuer’s information in a single document.
Since 2018, the publicly-held companies, like us, have to present a form about a “Brazilian Corporate Governance Code” in the “apply or explain” format.
Asset Management Regulation
The Brazilian asset management regulation requires a previous registration with the CVM to perform the services of portfolio management and fund administration.
Itaú Unibanco Group provides several services in the capital markets and, in particular, performs activities related to fund administration and portfolio management under CVM registration and in accordance with CVM regulation.
By providing these services, our entities engaged in the asset management business can be held civilly and administratively liable in certain circumstances for losses arising from either intentional acts or negligence in conducting their activities.
The CVM has regulatory powers to oversee these activities, including powers to impose fines and other sanctions on registered asset managers.
Investments of Foreign Investors
Individuals or legal entities domiciled outside Brazil may invest in companies or other assets in Brazilian financial and capital markets, subject to the restrictions and requirements set forth in the local regulation. All foreign investments in Brazil shall be registered with the Central Bank and/or CVM, depending on the type of the investment.
The foreign direct investment (RDE-IED) enables the non-resident investors to hold stock of companies in Brazil, whereas the portfolio investment (RDE – Portfolio) entitles the investment in almost all financial assets and transactions available in the Brazilian financial and capital markets, being subject to some restrictions set forth in Brazilian regulation.
In order to invest in the Brazilian financial and capital markets, investors non-resident in Brazil must engage a financial institution authorized to act as legal representative and, unless the investor is a natural

person, a custodian of their investments in Brazil. Such investments are regulated by Resolution CMN 4,373/14 and Resolution CVM 13/20. The transactions performed by foreign investors must be carried out in the markets organized by entities authorized by CVM (such as B3, for example) and securities must be held in custody with depositary and registration systems authorized by CVM and/or Central Bank (such as SELIC and CETIP). The rules establish certain exceptions which allow transactions outside of the organized markets such as subscription of securities in initial public offerings, tender offerings of securities and payment of dividends in kind. Brazilian rules also allow the issuance abroad of depositary receipts based on (i) any security issued by Brazilian publicly owned companies, (ii) credit instruments issued by financial institutions and other types of publicly owned institutions authorized by the Central Bank of Brazil, and eligible to be included in the financial institution’s regulatory capital (Patrimônio de Referência), and (iii) Letras Imobiliárias Garantidas, which are a type of real estate note issued in the Brazilian market. Regulatory Sandbox On October 26, 2020, the CMN and the Central Bank of Brazil (“BCB”) published CMN Resolution No. 4,865/2020 and BCB Resolution No. 29/2020, both regarding Controlled Testing Environment for Financial Innovations (“Sandbox”), which is intended to allow businesses, including institutions that are not yet authorized to operate by the Central Bank, to test innovative projects related to matters under the supervision of the CMN or the Central Bank with real consumers. CMN Resolution No. 4,865/2020 and BCB Resolution No. 29/2020 came into effect on December 1, 2020. The specific rules of the first cycle such as duration period and number of participants, necessary documentation, criteria for the classification of institutions and the schedule of the registration, selection and authorization processes of such entities were published on December 16, 2020 and is expected to start in the second half of 2021. The Central Bank approved on December 15, 2020, through BCB Resolution No. 50 of December 16, 2020 (“Resolution No. 50/20”), the rules applicable to the first cycle of its Regulatory Sandbox, scheduled to begin in the first semester of 2021. According to Resolution No. 50/20, enrollments for participants in the first cycle took place between February 22 and March 19, 2021, and among those enrolled, 10 to 15 projects will be selected. The selection and authorization of registered participants will take place between March 22nd and June 25th, 2021, and may be extended up to a maximum of 90 days, depending on the number of registrants. The topics chosen by the Central Bank as priorities and which will be considered in the selection of projects include: • Solutions for the foreign exchange market; • Development of capital markets through synergy mechanisms with the credit market; • Stimulus of credit to microentrepreneurs and small businesses; • Open Banking Solutions; • PIX Solutions; • Solutions for the rural credit market; • Solutions for increasing competition in National Financial System and Brazilian Payments System; • Financial and payment solutions with potential effects of stimulating financial inclusion; and • Fostering of sustainable finance. Open Banking The Brazilian Central Bank announced the initial guidelines for open banking regulation in Brazil through Notice No. 33,455 on April 25, 2019. Open Banking consists in the sharing of data and payment initiation services by financial institutions and other authorized entities, upon customer’s authorization and via 138


LOGO

integration of information systems. The Central Bank has looked at open banking as an important tool for innovation in the financial market, making the banking industry more efficient and competitive. The Brazilian open banking model will comprise financial institutions, payment institutions and other Central Bank-licensed entities by making it possible to share, in a phased-in approach, data on products and services, customer record data and customer transaction data. Open banking will eventually cover the provision of initiation payment services. On November 28, 2019, the Brazilian Central Bank launched Public Consultation No. 73/2019, which disclosed the draft resolution to implement open banking in Brazil to the public. Among other topics, the draft resolution sets forth in detail the participating institutions (mandatory and voluntary), the data and services covered, the requirements for sharing, the responsibilities for sharing, the implementation schedule and the convention to be concluded between the participating institutions. The period for commenting the Public Consultation ended on January 31, 2020 and the Brazilian Central Bank received contributions form market agents. On May, 4, 2020, a regulation was published by the Central Bank and CMN (Joint Resolution No. 1/2020) and enables the sharing of registration and transactional data from individuals or legal entities through a secure, prompt, accurate and convenient manner — at the customers’ discretion, in the case of data and services that identifies the customer. It is an important step in the process of digitizing the financial system, creating an environment conducive to the emergence of new solutions for inclusive, competitive, safe and suitable provision of financial services. The open banking in Brazil will be implemented gradually, from February 2021 to December 2021, pursuant to the new dates established by the Joint Resolution No. 1/2020 (as amended by Joint Resolution No. 2/2020): Stage I – as of February 2021: public access to information from participating institutions regarding their customer service channels and their products and services related to demand deposit or savings accounts, payment accounts or credit transactions; Stage II – up to July 15, 2021: sharing of customers’ or their representatives’ registry information, and the customers’ transactional data related to products and services listed in Stage I; Stage III – up to August 30, 2021: sharing of services of initiating payment transactions and forwarding loan proposals; and Stage IV – up to December 15, 2021: expansion of the scope of covered data, in order to include foreign exchange operations, investments, insurance, and open pension funds, among other financial products. Regulation on Payment Agents and Payment Arrangements A Brazilian law enacted in October 2013 establishes the legal framework for “payment arrangements” (i.e. the set of rules governing a payment scheme, such as a credit or debit card transaction), and “payment agents” (i.e., any agent that issues a payment instrument or acquires a merchant for payment acceptance), which became part of the Brazilian Payments System and subject to oversight by the Central Bank. Payment agents, in spite of being regulated by the Central Bank, are not deemed to be financial institutions and are prohibited from engaging in activities that are exclusive of financial institutions. The CMN and the Central Bank published rules in November 2013 regulating payment arrangements and payment agents. This regulation establishes, among other matters: (i) consumer protection and antimoney laundering compliance and loss prevention rules that should be followed by all entities supervised by the Central Bank when acting as payment agents and payment arrangers; (ii) the procedures for the incorporation, organization, authorization and operation of payment agents, as well for the transfer of control, subject to the Central Bank’s prior approval; (iii) capital requirements; (iv) definition of arrangements excluded from the Brazilian Payments System; (v) payment accounts, which are divided into prepaid and post-paid accounts; and (vi) a liquidity requirement for prepaid accounts that demands the allocation of their balance to a special account at the Central Bank or to be invested in government bonds, starting at 20% in 2014 and rising gradually up to the totality of the total account balance in 2019. In October 2015, a regulation was published by the Central Bank regulating limitations on closed 139


LOGO

payment arrangements, the concept of domicile institution, the obligation of centralized clearing and settlement for the payment arrangements, and transparency of interoperability rules within an arrangement and between arrangements. On March 26, 2018, the Central Bank enacted Circular No. 3,887 establishing limitations to the interchange fee for debit transactions, which is the remuneration of the issuer paid by the merchant for each transaction. The average fee for the interchange is 0.5% and the maximum fee is 0.8%. These limitations are not applicable to non-face-toface transactions and to corporate cards. On November 28, 2018, the Central Bank enacted Circular No. 3,918, which modified Circular No. 3,691, regarding the international use of credit cards. Effective as of March 1, 2020, credit cards issuers offer customers the option to pay credit card invoices in reais, converting the amounts due on the date that such expenses was incurred. This option must be adopted for all credit cards issued, unless the customer waives converting foreign amounts on the day that the expense was incurred and chooses to have all amounts converted on the invoice due date. On June 27, 2019, the CMN and the Central Bank published Resolution No. 4,734 and Circular No. 3,952, which will come into effect on June 7, 2021, and impose new regulations regarding (i) the discount and prepayment operations of receivables from credit and debit payment instruments issued under the Brazilian Payment System; (ii) credit operations guaranteed by such receivables; and (iii) the constitution of liens and encumbrances on these. With the new regulation, the Central Bank intends to provide greater efficiency and security to the discount, prepayment and credit operations linked to receivables from payment arrangements by merchants, increasing competition and thus reducing the cost of credit. On October 22, 2020, the Central Bank published the Resolution No 24, which modified Circular No. 3.885, establishing the authorization process for payment institutions classified as a payment initiation service providers. The payment initiation service provider is characterized by being a payment institution that, without managing a payment account or holding at any time any part of the funds transfer, initiate a payment transaction. To operate as a payment initiation service provider is necessary a previously authorization by the Central Bank, institutions that already hold a financial institution authorization or a payment institution authorization have a simplified procedure. The Central Bank Resolution No. 24 also modified the authorization process for payments institutions that operate as prepaid issuers and start their operation after March 2021, requiring a previous authorization by the Central Bank. On March 25, 2021, the Central Bank published Resolution No. 80 and Resolution No. 81, which repealed Circular No. 3,885 and altered the rules relating to the operation and authorization process for payment institutions. Among the main changes introduced by Resolution No. 80, are: (i) the requirement that payment institutions include the term “Instituição de Pagamento” in their corporate name; (ii) the requirement that payment institutions be managed by three or more statutory officers; and (iii) that securities broker dealers are no longer required to request prior authorization to offer some payment services. The main changes set forth in Resolution No. 81 include changes to the definition of qualified equity interest held in payment intuitions, as well as an obligation for payment institutions to maintain a business plan available to the Central Bank, which may be requested before or after the granting of the authorization to operate. Resolution No. 80 and Resolution No. 81 will come into effect on May 3, 2021. Similar to Resolution No. 24, Resolution No. 80 requires all payment institutions incorporated after its entry into effect to require previous authorization by the Central Bank to operate. Instant Payments Central Bank approves regulation of its Instant Payment Arrangement (“Pix System”) On August 13, 2020, the Central Bank issued Central Bank Resolution No. 1 (“Central Bank Resolution 1/2020”), establishing the Pix System payment arrangement and approving its regulation (the “Pix Regulation”). Central Bank Resolution 1/2020 came into effect on September 1, 2020. Pix System transactions will operate on a restricted basis through November 3, 2020 and will be fully operational after November 16, 2020. Pursuant to Central Bank Resolution 1/2020, the participation in the Pix System is mandatory for 140


LOGO

financial institutions and payment agents authorized to operate by the Central Bank that have more than 500,000 active customer accounts, considering cash deposit accounts, savings deposit accounts and prepaid payment accounts. Participation in the PIX System is optional for financial institutions and payment agents that do not meet this threshold, as well as the National Treasury Secretariat. The Pix Regulation applies to all participants in the Pix System. According to the Pix Regulation, there are three participation types: (i) transactional account provider, which is a financial institution or a payment institution that offers deposit accounts or payment accounts to end users; (ii) government entity, which is the National Treasury Secretariat, with the exclusive purpose of making collections and payments related to its activities; and (iii) special clearing houses, that are the financial institutions and payment agents that (a) within the scope of the Pix System have the exclusive purpose of providing settlement services to other participants, (b) meet the requirements to act as settlement participants in the Central Bank’s Instant Payments System (“SPI”), and (c) do not meet the criteria of mandatory participation in the Pix System. Provision of Financial Services through Electronic Channels CMN regulation establishes that financial institutions are not required to provide clients access to traditional banking services channels for collection and receipt services based on agreements that demand exclusively electronic channels. Credit Performance Information CMN regulates a database known as Credit Information System (Sistema de Informações de Crédito, or SCR), which comprises information regarding credit operations sent to the Central Bank. SCR’s purpose is to provide information for the Central Bank to monitor and supervise credit in the financial system, and also to enable information exchange among financial institutions. New rules applicable to Brazilian capital abroad and non-resident accounts in Brazil. On July 30, 2020, the CMN enacted Resolution No. 4,841 and Resolution No. 4,844, which provide new rules related to the presentation of the Declaration of Brazilian Capital Abroad (“DCBE”), as well as the provision of information regarding non-resident accounts (conta de não-residente – “CNR”) in Brazil, both of which provide for the modernization and cost reduction of the compliance and supervision process in the National Financial System. According to Resolution No. 4,841, only Brazilian residents who maintain capital abroad above US$ 1 million by December 31 of each year are required to submit the DCBE, a declaration of assets abroad, to the Central Bank. Nevertheless, the rules for the provision of information to the Brazilian Tax Authority (Receita Federal do Brasil or “RFB”) have been kept unchanged. In addition, Resolution No. 4,844 alters the minimum threshold for the mandatory registration of transactions in CNRs from R$10,000 to R$100,000, which has the purpose of simplifying the monitoring procedures by Brazilian financial institutions. Consumer Protection Code The Brazilian Consumer Protection Code, or CDC, which is applicable to financial institutions according to Brazilian higher courts, sets forth consumer defense and protection rules applicable to consumers’ relationships with suppliers of products or services. Basic consumer rights dealing with financial institutions: • Reverse burden of proof in court; • Proper and clear information provided with respect to the products and services offered (e.g.; quantity, characteristics, composition, quality, price and risks such products pose); • Proportional reduction of interest charged in connection with personal credit and consumer directed credit transactions in case of early payment of debts; • In limited circumstances, amounts charged improperly may have to be returned in an amount equal to twice what was paid in excess of due amounts, except in cases of justifiable mistakes (e.g.; systemic failure or operational error); 141


LOGO

• Collection of credits cannot expose the client to embarrassment or be performed in a threatening manner; • Prohibition on the release of misleading or abusive publicity or information about contracts or services, as well as on the promoting of overbearing or disloyal commercial practices; and • Liability for any damages caused to consumers by misrepresentations in their publicity or information provided. Late payment and default CMN Resolution No. 4,882 provides that in case of delay or non-payment of credit operations, financial leasing and credit card and other post-paid payment instruments, the financial institutions may only charge customers the following: (i) the interest rate established in the agreement; (ii) default interest and late payment fines in accordance with the law. Limitation to the fees and interest rates on overdraft-secured checks On November 27, 2019, the CMN issued Resolution No. 4,765 (“Resolution No. 4,765/2019”), providing for new rules on the overdraft granted by financial institutions in checking accounts held by individuals and individual micro entrepreneurs (MEI). The new rule limits the charging of fees on overdraft-secured checks to: (i) 0% for the opening credit facilities of up to R$ 500.00; and (ii) 0.25% for the opening of credit facilities larger than R$500.00, calculated with the amount of the facility that exceeds R$500.00. Resolution No. 4,765/2019 also limits interest rates over the overdraft-secured check to up to 8% per month, to which must be added a discount of the overdraft fees already charged monthly by the financial institution. According to the new rule, if the interest is less than or equal to the overdraft fees, such interest rates must be equal to zero. In addition, Resolution No. 4,765/2019 establishes that the overdraft-secured check must be compatible with the customer’s risk profile. Resolution No. 4,765/2019 came into force on January 6, 2020, for agreements executed after the referred date, and came into force on June 1, 2020, for agreements executed prior to such date. Regarding the 8% limitation the rule applies to all contracts from 06 January 2020 regardless of the date of contracting. Data Protection The Brazilian General Data Protection Act, or the GDPA, came into effect in September 2020 (except for administrative sanctions, which will enter into effect on August 1, 2021, according to Law No. 14,010/2020). The GDPA brings a set of rules to be observed in activities such as collection, processing, storage, use, transfer, sharing and erasure of information concerning identified or identifiable natural persons. The application of the GDPA will apply irrespective of industry or business when dealing with personal data. The GDPA also created the Brazilian National Data Protection Authority, or the ANPD, which will exercise the triple role of investigation, enforcement and education. More importantly, it will be able to issue norms and procedures, deliberate on the interpretation of the act, request information to controllers and processors and, in cases of noncompliance with the law, enforce the law through an administrative process. The ANPD has been assured technical independence, though it is subordinated to the Presidency of the Republic. Cybersecurity We comply with the requirements of GDPA, especially in relation to the security and protection of personal data, as well as CMN Resolution No. 4,658/2021 and of Central Bank Circular No. 3,909/2018, which require financial institutions to institute a Cybersecurity Policy, as well as regulates the outsourcing of relevant data processing and storage and cloud computing services. We also comply with CVM Ruling No. 612/2019, 142


LOGO

which amends, expands and repeals provisions to CVM Ruling No. 505, which sets forth the standards and procedures to be observed in security transactions carried out in regulated securities markets requiring the implementation of cybersecurity controls and data protection. Automatic debit of banking accounts On March 26, 2020, CMN issued Resolution No. 4,790, which sets forth new rules for the automatic debit payments from checking account and accounts designated for the payment of an individual’s wages. In order to foster the transparency on the relationship between the financial institutions and their clients, the new rule sets forth that financial institutions should only process automatic debit payments upon prior and express authorization of the client. Resolution No. 4,790 provides for the procedures for the authorization and cancellation of automatic debit payments. The new rule came into effect on May 1st, 2021. Regulation of Independent Auditors In accordance with CMN regulations establishing the rules that govern external audit services provided to financial institutions, the financial statements and financial information of financial institutions must be audited by independent auditors who are (i) duly registered with the CVM; (ii) qualified as specialists in audit of banks by the CFC and the IBRACON; and (iii) meet the requirements that ensure auditor independence. After issuing audit reports for five consecutive fiscal years, the responsible audit partner and audit team members with management responsibilities must rotate-off and cannot be part of the audit team of such institution for three consecutive fiscal years. CMN regulations also prohibit the engagement and maintenance of independent auditors by financial institutions in the event that: (i) any of the circumstances of impediment or incompatibility for the provision of audit services provided for in the rules and regulations of the CVM, CFC or IBRACON arise; (ii) ownership of shares of or entering into financial transactions (either asset or liability) with the audited financial institution by the audit firm or members of the audit team involved in the audit work of the financial institution; and (iii) fees payable by the institution represent 25% or more of the total annual fees of the audit firm. Additionally, the audited financial institution is prohibited from hiring partners and members of the audit team with managerial responsibilities who were involved in the audit work at the financial institution during the preceding 12 months. In addition to the audit report, the independent auditor must prepare the following reports, as required by CMN regulation. • An assessment of the internal controls and risk management procedures of the financial institution, including its electronic data processing system; • A description of non-compliance with legal and regulatory provisions that have, or may have, a significant impact on the audited financial statements or operations of the audited financial institution; and • Others reports required by Central Bank. These reports, as well as working papers, correspondence, service agreements and other documents related to the audit work must be retained and made available to the Central Bank for at least five years. Under Brazilian law, our financial statements must be prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil applicable to institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank. We also prepare financial statements in accordance with the IFRS as issued by IASB. Please see “Presentation of Financial and Other Information —About our Financial Information” for further details. Financial institutions must have their financial statements audited every six months. Quarterly financial statements filed with the CVM must be reviewed by independent auditors of the financial institutions. CVM rules require publicly-held companies, including financial institutions, to disclose information related to non-audit services provided by independent auditors when they represent more than 5% of the fees for audit services. Such information should include the 143


LOGO

type of service, the amount paid and the percentage that they represent of the fees for the audit of financial statements. Please see “Item 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services” for further details about fees and services of the principal auditors. Self-Regulators We are signatories of self-regulation codes that establish principles, rules and recommendations of best corporate governance practices and determined activities, as applicable. Some of the self-regulatory entities that we are subject to are the ABRASCA, ABECS, ANBIMA, and FEBRABAN, among others. Portability of Credit Transactions Regulated by the Central Bank since 2013, portability of credit transactions consists of the transfer of a credit transaction from the original creditor to another institution, at the request of the debtor, maintaining the same outstanding balance and remaining term. The regulation establishes standard procedures and deadlines for the exchange of information and the mandatory use of an electronic system authorized by the Central Bank for the transfer of funds between financial institutions, prohibiting the use of any alternative procedure to produce the same effects of the portability, including so-called “debt purchases.” Rules Governing the Charging of Fees on Banking and Credit Card Operations Banking fees and credit card operations are extensively regulated by the CMN and the Central Bank. According to Brazilian legislation, we must classify the services we provide to individuals under pre-determined categories and are subject to limitations on the collection of fees for such services. Brazilian financial institutions are generally not authorized to charge fees from individuals for providing services classified as “essential” with respect to checking and savings accounts, such as supplying debit cards, check books, withdrawals, statements and transfers, among others. Brazilian legislation also authorizes financial institutions to charge fees related to “priority services”, a standard set of services defined by Central Bank regulation. Financial institutions must offer to their individual clients “standard packages” of priority services. Clients may also choose between these or other packages offered Brazilian legislation also authorizes financial institutions to charge fees related to “priority services”, a standard set of services defined by Central Bank regulation. Financial institutions must offer to their individual clients “standard packages” of priority services. Clients may also choose between these or other packages offered by the financial institution, or to use and pay for services individually instead of selecting a package. Current rules also authorize financial institutions to charge fees for specific services called “additional services” (serviços diferenciados), provided that the account holder or user is informed of the use and payment conditions relating to such services, or that fees and collection methods are defined in the contract. The CMN also establishes rules applicable to credit cards, determining the events that allow for the collection of fees by issuers, as well as the information that must be disclosed in credit card statements and in the credit card agreement. There is also a list of priority services. The rules define two types of credit cards: (i) basic credit cards, with simpler services, without rewards programs and (ii) “special credit cards”, with benefits and reward programs. A minimum of 30-days’ prior notice to the public must precede the creation or increase of a fee. In addition, fees related to priority services may only be increased 180 days after the date of a previous increase (the reduction of a fee can take place at any time). With respect to credit cards, a 45-days’ prior notice to the public is required for any increase or creation of fees and such fees may only be increased 365 days after the previous increase. The period of 365 days is also subject to changes in the rules applicable to benefit or reward programs. At the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017, two major changes occurred in the Brazilian payment market. In December 2016 a provisional measure was published authorizing the surcharge by payment instrument as a way to stimulate retail sales, allowing retailers to charge different prices depending on the payment method. In January 2017 the CMN published a new resolution establishing that revolving credit for the financing of credit card bills may only be extended to clients until the due date of the following credit card 144


LOGO

bill. After such term, the credit provider must offer the client another type of financing with conditions more favorable than the ones that are provided in the credit card market. In addition, the credit provider shall no longer offer this type of credit to clients that already contracted revolving credit for the financing of credit card bills which were not repaid on time. In 2018, the CMN issued a new resolution establishing that the following fees may be collected in the event of late payment or settlement of obligations related to credit card bills and other postpaid payment instruments: (i) compensatory interest, per day of delay, on overdue installments or on unpaid debtor balances; (ii) a fine and (iii) interest for late payment. The same resolution also established that the change in credit limits, if not carried out at the request of the customer, should, in the case of: (i) reduction, be preceded by at least 30-days’ advance notice to the client, except if there is a deterioration of the customer’s credit risk profile, according to the criteria defined in the credit risk management policy, in which case notice may be made at any time prior to the reduction; and (ii) increase, be conditioned upon the customer’s prior acquiescence. In 2019, the CMN issued a standard setting rules for the collection of interest and tariff on overdraft for individuals and Individual Microentrepreneurs (entrepreneurs with annual revenues of R$81,000 and subject to specific legislation). According to the new regulation, can only be charged for use of overdraft limit exceeding R$500.00. Brazilian financial institutions must maintain the secrecy of banking transactions and services provided to their clients. Except as permitted under Brazilian legislation or by judicial order, a breach of bank secrecy is a criminal offense. The only circumstances in which information about clients, services or transactions by Brazilian financial institutions or credit card companies may be disclosed to third parties are the following: the disclosure of information with the express consent of the interested parties; the exchange of information between financial institutions for record purposes; the disclosure of information to credit reference agencies based on data from the records of subscribers of checks drawn on accounts without sufficient funds and defaulting debtors; the disclosure of information to the competent authorities relating to the actual or suspected occurrence of criminal acts or administrative wrongdoings, including the disclosure of information on transactions involving funds related to any unlawful activities; the disclosure of some information established by law to tax authorities; and the disclosure of information in compliance with a judicial order. Digitalization of Documents and Record Keeping According to CMN’s resolution on the digitalization of documents with respect to transactions carried out by financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank, these institutions are authorized to maintain digital documents, instead of paper documents, for recordkeeping purposes, if certain requirements to ensure the documents authenticity, validity and protection are met. The resolution also permits the disposal of original paper documents provided that this measure will not prejudice the institution’s ability to exercise any rights or to commence any proceeding or exercise any protective remedy related to the relevant document. Dividends and other payments by financial institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic On May 29, 2020 the CMN enacted Resolution No. 4,820, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which prohibited financial institutions, such as us, to: (i) remunerate their own capital, including by means of early payment, in excess of amounts equivalent to the minimum mandatory dividend required by Law No. 6,404/76 (the “Brazilian Corporation Law”), including as interest on capital (ii) repurchase their own shares, subject to certain exceptions as authorized by the Central Bank (restriction applicable until December 31, 2020); (iii) reduce their capital stock, except if such reduction is required by law or approved by the Central 145


LOGO

Bank (restriction applicable until December 31, 2020); and (iv) increase the compensation of their officers, directors and members of the board of directors and audit committee, including fixed and variable compensation with respect to 2020 fiscal year. CMN Resolution No. 4,280 repealed CMN Resolution No. 4,797 of April 6, 2020, that had previously established similar restrictions. On December 23, 2020, the CMN enacted Resolution 4,885, which modified Resolution No. 4,820 in order to provide more flexibility for the payment of dividends or interest on capital. As a result, financial institutions are not allowed to pay dividends in excess of the greater of (x) the amount corresponding to 30% of the adjusted net profit in accordance with item I of article 202 of the Brazilian Corporation Law; and (y) the amount equivalent to the mandatory dividends as set forth in article 202 of the Brazilian Corporation Law. This is the only restriction still in force as a result of Resolution No. 4,820/20. Public Consultation to Replace Prudential Regulation Referring to Credit and Market Risk On December 11, 2020, the Central Bank launched a public consultation on a proposal for a regulation that implements the minimum standard of the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision (BCBS) for calculating the capital requirement related to credit risk according to standardized approach (RWACPAD). This new regulation will replace Central Bank Circular No. 3,644, of March 4, 2013, pursuant to “Basel III” requirements. The proposal increases the granularity of the weights applicable to exposures, bringing refinements in the differentiation in credit risk to the prudential framework. The proposal is addressed to financial institutions classified in Segments 1 (S1) to Segment 4 (S4), which currently opt for the standardized approach for credit risk. The consultation ended on February 23, 2021 and the final rule is still pending issuance. On December 11, 2020, the Central Bank also launched a public consultation on a proposal for a rule contemplating the first phase – of a total of four planned phases – of the process of reviewing the prudential standard for determining the capital requirement related to market risk, as provided for in Basel III. This first phase contains the requirements related to the risk management process, including improvements in governance and the identification of financial instruments classified in the trading portfolio. Under the terms proposed in the consultation, the first phase will come into effect on January 1, 2022, through amendments to Resolution 4,557, of February 23, 2017, and the publication of a new rule that will replace Circular No. 3,354, of 27 June 2007. The consultation ended on February 9, 2021 and the final rule is still pending issuance. The Central Bank expects to launch new public consultations relating to Phases 2 and 3 throughout 2021. Proceedings for Administrative Sanctions in the Brazilian National Financial System, the SPB and Capital Markets Law No. 13,506 provides for administrative sanctioning procedures by the Central Bank and the CVM. Some of the key aspects of Law No. 13,506 are: (i) it increases the maximum fine applicable by the Central Bank from R$250 thousand to R$2 billion or 0.5% of the revenues of the company arising from services and financial products in the year prior to the violation; (ii) it increases the maximum fine applicable by the CVM from R$500 thousand to R$50 million; (iii) it sets forth new types of violations and subject to penalties; (iv) it increases the maximum penalty with respect to disqualification to a period of twenty years; (v) it provides that the Central Bank may enter into cease-and-desist commitments; and (vi) it provides that the Central Bank and the CVM may enter into administrative agreements similar to leniency agreements. Centralized Registration and Deposit of Financial Assets and Securities Law No. 13,476/2017, Law No. 12,810/2013, as amended, and consolidated the provisions on the creation of liens over financial assets and securities requiring that the constitution of liens on financial assets and securities subject to registration or centralized deposit be carried out exclusively at the registering entities or at the central depositories where such financial assets or securities are registered or deposited, regardless of the nature of the legal transaction to which they relate to, including for purposes of publicity and effectiveness 146

with third parties. The CMN issued a rule to regulate the provisions of Law No. 13,476/2017 and to consolidate the regulation on centralized deposit and the registry of financial assets and securities issued or owned by institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank, requiring, amongst other provisions, that such institutions be generally, subject to limited exceptions, obligated to: (i) register and deposit, in registration and/or centralized deposit systems authorized to operate by the Central Bank or the CVM, all financial assets and securities they are obligated or co-obligated to pay; and (ii) only keep in their asset portfolio securities that are registered and/or deposited in the terms of the CMN rule. On September 5, 2018, the Central Bank issued a new rule amending the existing procedural rule on centralized registration and deposit of financial assets and securities and the creation of liens on deposited financial assets and established the terms for the creation of liens over financial assets registered with registering entities. The referred rule established, amongst other changes, that such liens are effective in the moment that the central depositary accepts the command from its participant, pursuant to its internal regulations. Taxation of closed investment funds MP 806/17 issued on October 30, 2017, which intended to extinguish the tax deferral regime applicable to closely held investment funds and subject them to taxation, was not converted into law. As a consequence, it was repealed. Taxes on Transactions entered into by the Itaú Unibanco Group We summarize below the main taxes levied on the transactions entered into by entities in the Itaú Unibanco Group in Brazil. This description does not represent a comprehensive analysis of all tax considerations applicable to the Itaú Unibanco Group. For a more in-depth analysis, we recommend that potential investors consult their own tax advisors. The main taxes we are subject to, with their respective rates, are as follows: Tax Rate Tax calculation basis IRPJ 15.0% plus a 10.0% surtax Net income with adjustments (exclusions, additions, and deductions) CSLL 20.0% (financial institutions, insurance companies and capitalization entities) or 9.0% (other Itaú Unibanco Group companies). 25.0% (banking institutions) and 20.0% (other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank and insurance and capitalization companies) as of July 1, 2021 and until December 31, 2021. From January 1, 2019 to February 2020, the CSLL tax rate, as defined below, applicable to financial institutions, insurance companies, capitalization and similar entities was reduced to 15.0% Net income with adjustments (exclusions, additions, and deductions) COFINS 4.0% (financial institutions, insurance companies, capitalization and similar entities) or 7.6% (other Itaú Unibanco Group companies) Gross revenue minus specific deductions PIS 0.65% (financial institutions, insurance companies, capitalization and similar entities) or 1.65% (other Itaú Unibanco Group companies) Gross revenue minus specific deductions 147

ISS 2.0% to 5.0% Price of service rendered IOF Depends on the type of the transaction, as described below. Transaction nominal value Corporate Income Tax and Social Contribution on Net Income In accordance with applicable legislation, corporate income tax (Imposto de Renda da Pessoa Jurídica, or IRPJ), and social contribution on profits (Contribuição Social Sobre o Lucro Líquido, or CSLL) are determined by the taxable income regime. Under this regime, our taxable income, on which IRPJ and CSLL will be levied, must be adjusted by additions, deductions, and exclusions, such as nondeductible expenses, operating costs and equity accounting, respectively. The IRPJ is levied at a basic 15.0% rate, and a 10.0% surtax is applicable when the total amount of profit for the fiscal period exceeds R$20,000 per month or R$240,000 per year. In other words, any portion of our profit exceeding this limit is taxed at an effective 25.0% rate. The CSLL is levied on our taxable income at a 20.0% rate, which is specific for financial institutions, insurance, and similar companies. From January 1, 2019 to February 2020, the CSLL rate for financial institutions is 15.0%. Note that this tax is generally levied at a 9.0% for non-financial legal entities. Provisional Measure No. 1,034 increased the CSLL (i) for banking institutions from 20.0% to 25.0%; (ii) for other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank from 15.0% to 20.0%; and (iii) for insurance and capitalization companies from 15.0% to 20.0% from July 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021. These modifications were introduced by a provisional measure and are awaiting approval of the Brazilian Congress. As other Brazilian legal entities, our companies may offset the historical nominal amount of tax losses determined in prior years against results of subsequent years at any time (i.e., with no limitations with respect to time periods), provided that such offsetting does not exceed 30.0% of the annual taxable income of such future year. For purposes of IRPJ and CSLL taxation, companies should consider their income abroad as well rather than income solely from Brazilian operations. Therefore, profits, capital gains and other income earned abroad by Itaú Unibanco Group entities in Brazil, their branches, representations, affiliates or subsidiaries, will also be computed for determination of the entities taxable income. However, Brazilian legislation provides the possibility of deducting the amounts paid as corporate income tax abroad against the IRPJ and CSLL due in Brazil, provided certain limits are observed. Contribution on Social Integration Program and Social Security Financing Contribution In addition to IRPJ and CSLL, Brazilian legal entities are subject to the following taxes on revenue: PIS and COFINS. According to applicable legislation, financial institutions are subject to the cumulative regime for calculation of these taxes. Under the cumulative regime, financial institutions are required to pay PIS at a 0.65% rate and COFINS at a 4.0% rate. The cumulative regime provides for rates lower than those levied under the non-cumulative regime, which is explained below, but it prevents the use of tax credits. Service Tax The ISS is generally levied on the price of services rendered (e.g., banking services) and is charged by the municipality where our branch or office rendering the service is located. The tax rates vary from 2.0% up to the maximum rate of 5.0%, depending on the municipality in which the service is provided and its respective nature. 148

A new tax law enacted on December 30, 2016, caused a number of changes with respect to Brazilian Tax on Service, or ISS. Among these modifications, the new law introduced a minimum tax rate of 2%. The original proposed legislation approved by the Brazilian Congress provided changes related to ISS assessment on activities such as credit card and leasing operations but former President Temer vetoed these changes. However, on May 30, 2017, the Brazilian Congress overturned the presidential veto. As a result, beginning on January 1, 2018, ISS levied on the services of leasing, cards administration, funds administration and consortium administration would be charged by the municipality where the client is located. Due to this change, in November 2017, a lawsuit was filed by CONSIF and CNSEG in the Federal Supreme Court, and, on March, 23, 2018, the required preliminary injunction was granted, in order to suspend the amendment introduced by the new law and to resume the previous treatment of ISS collection in the Municipality where the establishment is located. However, it is important to mention that this is not a final decision, as it is still pending the final pronouncement by the Federal Supreme Court. A law was published in September 2020 which provides for changes in relation to the Services Tax that are similar to those provided for in the legislation published in December 2016. Considering the injunction obtained in the Supreme Federal Court, on March 23, 2018, which suspended the amendments introduced by the law published in December 2016, the new law published in September 2020 has its applicability suspended until the Supreme Court rules on the injunction, as it is related to the previous law. Tax on Financial Transactions The tax on financial transactions is levied at specific rates according to the transaction in question, and may be changed by a decree from the Executive Branch (which may become effective as of its publication date), rather than by a law enacted by the Brazilian Congress. The table below summarizes the main IOF rates levied on our transactions. Notwithstanding, we note that IOF is a very comprehensive tax. Therefore, for a more in-depth analysis, we recommend that tax advisors be consulted accordingly. Type of transaction Applicable Rates (Rates may be changed by a decree enacted by the Brazilian government up to a maximum rate, as described below, which may become effective as of its publication date) Foreign exchange transactions IOF/FX: zero to 6.38% (depending on the transaction) Maximum rate: 25% Insurance transactions IOF/Insurance: zero to 7.38% Maximum rate: 25% Loans and credit transactions IOF/Credit: 0.0082% (individual) or 0.0041% (legal entities) per day, until it reaches 365 days, plus a flat 0.38% rate Maximum rate: 1.5% per day Securities IOF/Securities: zero to 1.5% as a general rule Maximum rate: 1.5% per day Securities – Derivatives IOF/Securities—Derivatives: zero Maximum rate: 25% U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) FATCA attempts to minimize tax avoidance by U.S. persons investing in foreign assets both through their own accounts and through their investments in foreign entities. FATCA requires U.S. withholding agents such as Itaú to provide information to the IRS regarding their U.S. account holders including substantial U.S. owners of certain non-financial foreign entities, or NFFEs, and specified U.S. persons having an interest in certain professionally managed investment vehicles and trusts known as owner-documented foreign financial institutions, or FFIs. 149


LOGO

To the extent a U.S. withholding agent is not able to properly document an account, it generally will be required to deduct 30% FATCA withholding on certain payments of U.S. source income. U.S. federal income tax law has detailed rules for determining the source of income. Different rules apply for each type of income. Interest and dividends, two of the most common types of income for investors, are generally sourced by reference to the residence of the obligor. Specifically, dividends are generally treated as U.S. source income when paid by a U.S. corporation with respect to its stock, and interest is generally treated as U.S. source income when paid by a U.S. borrower of money. The United States collaborated with other governments to develop Intergovernmental Agreements, or IGAs, to implement FATCA. IGAs with partner jurisdictions facilitate the effective and efficient implementation of FATCA. The purpose of these agreements is essentially to remove domestic legal impediments to compliance with FATCA and sharing of information and to reduce burdens on FFIs located in partner jurisdictions. More than 70 jurisdictions have signed an IGA, including Brazil, the Cayman Islands, Switzerland and United Kingdom. In addition, approximately 30 other jurisdictions are deemed as having an IGA in effect. Some countries signed a reciprocal agreement, meaning that the country (such as Brazil) and the U.S. will automatically exchange annually, on a reciprocal basis, specific account holder information. There are two types of IGAs – Model 1 IGA, where local FFIs are required to implement account opening and due diligence procedures to identify U.S. accounts and report them to the local tax authority for exchange with the IRS (examples of Model 1 IGA countries are Brazil, Cayman Islands, The Bahamas, Peru and Colombia), and Model 2 IGA, where local FFIs are required to implement account opening and due diligence procedures to identify U.S. accounts, but report such information directly to the IRS (examples of Model 2 IGA countries are Switzerland, Chile, Paraguay and Japan). The governments of Brazil and the United States entered into a Model 1 IGA on September 23, 2014, effective in Brazil on August 24, 2015, after the approval by the Brazilian Congress, ratification by the President and enactment of Decree 8,506 (IGA-BR). Under the IGA-BR, Brazilian financial institutions and other entities subject to FATCA disclosure requirements are generally required to provide certain information on their U.S. account holders to the Brazilian tax authorities, which will share this information with the IRS. Furthermore, Normative Ruling No. 1,680, dated December 28, 2016, was enacted to introduce the so-called Common Reporting Standard, or CRS, in Brazil, which seeks to implement a system of reporting financial accounts in a manner similar to FATCA. CRS is the result of discussions on the necessity of exchanging information between tax authorities of many countries in the context of the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, or BEPS Project, coordinated by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD. In connection therewith, an ancillary obligation called “e-financeira” provided by Normative Ruling No. 1,571, dated July 2, 2016, was created to be the mandatory report filed by financial institutions in order to fulfill FATCA and CRS obligations. Moreover, on May 6, 2016, Brazilian tax authorities issued the Normative Ruling No. 1,634, effective as of January 1, 2017, that amended the regulation applicable to the National Registry of Legal Entities, or CNPJ. This regulation introduced a new rule providing an ancillary obligation by which certain entities have to indicate the “Final Beneficiary” in each CNPJ, which is defined as the natural person who ultimately, directly or indirectly, owns, controls or significantly influences a particular entity or on whose behalf a transaction is conducted. Currently, this subject is regulated by Normative Ruling No. 1,863, dated December 27, 2018. In addition, Normative Ruling No. 1,681 was enacted on December 28, 2016 providing the obligation to annually deliver the so-called Country-by-Country Statement, an ancillary obligation also arising from the discussions under the BEPS Project, before the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (RFB), which in its turn is also expected to exchange such information with other countries’ tax authorities. Pursuant to FATCA, the issuer, any other financial institution or other entities subject to FATCA disclosure requirements to or through which any payment with respect to the preferred shares or ADSs is made may be required, pursuant to the IGA-BR or under applicable law, to (i) request certain information from holders or beneficial owners of our preferred shares or ADSs, which information may be provided to the IRS; and (ii) withhold U.S. federal tax at a 30.0% rate on some portion or all of the payments considered “pass-thru payments” made after December 31, 2018, with respect to the preferred shares or ADSs if such information is not duly provided by such a holder or beneficial owner (referred to under FATCA as a “recalcitrant account holder”). If the issuer or any other person is required to withhold amounts under or in connection with FATCA 150


LOGO

from any payments made in respect of the preferred shares or ADSs, holders and beneficial owners of the preferred shares or ADSs will not be entitled to receive any gross up or other additional amounts to compensate them for such withholding. The above description is based on guidance issued to date by the U.S. Treasury Department, including the final U.S. Treasury regulations and IGA-BR. Future guidance may affect the application of FATCA to the preferred shares or ADSs. b) The issuer’s environmental policy and costs incurred in complying with environmental regulation and, if applicable, other environmental practices, including adherence to international environmental protections standards. Environmental and social policy Financial institutions play an important role in the global economy as they interact with all economy sectors and thus influence changes in society. In this scenario, and seeking to further underline the importance of E&S issues in the financial sector, the CMN provided for, through Resolution No. 4,327/2014, minimum E&S responsibility standards to be followed based on the importance and size of each institution. To ratify our commitment to seeking sustainable development, formalizing our E&S responsibility and sustainability strategy, we have a Sustainability and Environmental and Social Responsibility Policy (PRSA) setting out guidelines, strategies and principles that are fundamental to the institution, aimed at integrating the best sustainability and E&S risk management practices into the activities, operations and relations with stakeholders that may be impacted. This policy is based on the following guidelines: 1. Respecting and protecting human rights by promoting diversity, financial inclusion and fighting child labor in disagreement with law, forced labor, criminal exploitation of prostitution and sexual exploitation of minors; 2. Having an ethical and transparent stance by adopting fair business practices and providing timely and accessible information to fairly meet the specific needs of stakeholders; 3. Managing the E&S risk which is identified as one of the various types of risks we are exposed to; 4. Ongoing development of relations with stakeholders, such as clients, suppliers, employees, management members and partners, among others that may be impacted by our activities; 5. Rational use of natural resources, conservation of biodiversity, and mitigation of environmental impacts; and 6. Managing, monitoring and controlling sustainable actions, in compliance with applicable legal requirements. Since the beginning of our operation we have developed processes and products in partnership with other areas, and developed employee training and E&S Responsibility policies. Furthermore, we guide our institutional practices and business through good international practices, such as the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB), Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), Equator Principles (EP), Principles for Sustainability in Insurance (PSI), the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), Recommendations of the Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and the Global Compact. www.itau.com.br/relacoes-com-investidores/annual-report/2020/. Strategy Financial institutions have a key role in the market as it connects all the economic sectors and makes funds available to individuals and companies of all sizes. Aware of its ability to foster and coordinate sustainable development, Itaú Unibanco’s positive impact strategy is aimed at supporting employees, clients and society through business and it is in line with international regulatory bodies and standards to achieve this goal. 151


LOGO

In 2019, we published a revision of our strategic sustainability guidelines based on global trends, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), widening the connection with the business core and focused on maximizing the positive impact of our activities. Our organization’s positive impact commitments are presented as follows: For further information, please access www.itau.com.br/sustainability. The topics listed above are key to guide our decision-making, as these commitments provide us with a broader view of the risks and opportunities inherent in business. For the development of these topics, sustainability and financial market specialists have been interviewed, as have leaders, opinion makers and executives of companies engaged in positive impact commitments. Internal and external stakeholders – employees, executives, clients, stockholders, suppliers and society—have also been involved. In 2020, in view of its increasing importance, we engaged in creating a new commitment, which consists of guidelines and goals addressing private social investment. Teamed with our institutions and foundations, the focus is reaffirming our pact with Brazilian society by strengthening bonds of trust amid these uncertain times. This new commitment is aimed at providing access and increasing rights, improving quality of life in cities and strengthening the power of transformation of people through our private social investments. Through our unwavering commitment to Brazil, in June 2020, teamed up with two other top private banks Bradesco and Santander, we launched the Amazon Plan to promote the sustainable development of the Amazon region. In addition to the importance of this biome to the earth’s climate, this partnership among banks was set up in a particularly critical year for the region, with deforestation rates soaring. The financial system is able to directly and indirectly contribute to the sustainable use of Brazilian biomes driven by its operations with retail customers or by financing companies and their production chains. 152


LOGO

Through these commitments, we underline our direct operation in the business areas in which we seek to align our expectations in relation to finance result, customer satisfaction, compliance with regulations and responsible practices, and positive impact generation. We summarize below our operations in some business lines: â–ª CREDIT: The strategic integration of E&S issues into credit granting has been carried out by applying the Equator Principles for 15 years now and assessing the impact of E&S issues on the credit risk of the most significant sectors of our portfolio. The E&S risk variable is included in credit granting and management models by assessing criteria such as cost of operations, sector allocation, types of guarantees and mix of products to be offered. â–ª INVESTMENTS: Our asset valuation methodology includes climate change as one dimension to be analyzed. We pay close attention to regulatory aspects and use internal carbon pricing to estimate emission costs of the companies we analyze to calculate the financial impact on market and equities prices of these companies. Responsible for managing clients’ assets, Itaú Asset Management has been a signatory to the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) since 2008. It is also a signatory to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Adherence to such voluntary commitments provide us with references to integrate environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues into investment practices to mitigate risks and identify opportunities for our clients. We integrate ESG issues into our investment analyses based on a proprietary methodology that factors in eight different sustainability dimensions, including climate change. â–ª STRUCTURED OPERATIONS: To finance large projects and specialized operations, a questionnaire must be filled out to indicate the need for a more in-depth analysis and a specific diligence process before this operation is contracted out. In 2019, we raised US$150 million for SMEs, with most of this capital held by women, through the Development Bank of Latin America, CAF. In 2020, we started to provide specialized advisory in ESG operations (e.g., green bonds, sustainability-linked bonds, green bonds in the local market) to our CIB customers. We also have partnerships with the IDB, CEF, IFC, and BNDES to finance renewable energy and low-carbon economy projects. In 2021 we raised US$ 400 million with United States International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) in the international market with the intention of expanding credit to small and medium-sized companies, focusing on economically vulnerable regions like North and Northeast of Brazil, and companies mostly controlled or led by women. We keep on driving our institutional and business practices based on local and foreign benchmarks, signing up to voluntary pacts, fully listed in our institutional website. Some of the main highlights are as follows: â–ª Global Pact; â–ª Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI); â–ª Pact for eradication of slave labor; â–ª Principles for Sustainable Insurance (PSI); â–ª Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB). By the end of 2020, 200 banks from 49 countries, totaling US$47 trillion in assets, have signed up to the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB), with the commitment to strategically align their business with UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. As a result of the efforts proposed by this global coalition of banks, capital circulation criteria are outlined to enable and accelerate the transition from an economy generating large volumes of waste and pollutants and showing poor concern for E&S issues to a greener and more socially inclusive one. Endorsing our commitment to developing sustainable business, it is worth noting our making up the portfolios of the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE), Carbon Efficient Index (ICO2), and Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) since their introduction. We are also members of the Benchmark Club of the Carbon Disclosure Program (CDP) Latin America, which annually reports our emissions. We have also put in efforts to make headway with our agenda on transparency and reporting of climate change information through the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), set up by the Financial Stability Board (FSB), a G20 linked-body. These recommendations encourage organizations from several sectors to get to know and disclose information on impacts of climate change on their business. Our target is to include these TCFD recommendations on climate-related strategy, governance, risk management, targets and metrics by 2022.

Therefore, for over ten years we have carried out a GHG emissions inventory, assessed by an independent third party, in conformity with the methodology adopted by the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program, which was recognized with the Gold Seal award. Our history of emissions is public knowledge, and every year we report it to the Public Registry of Emissions, a data platform managed by the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program available at www.registropublicodeemissoes.com.br. Our emissions management is based on projects developed to reduce the impact caused by us and offset the emissions that cannot be avoided. We continuously invest in projects that help reducing our emissions. Scope 1 comprises direct emissions from mobile, stationary and fugitive combustion, with actions aimed at reducing diesel consumption by own power generators, machine preventive maintenance, and mapping and studies to replace cooling gases with less harmful gases. Scope 2 comprises indirect emissions from electricity consumption, as we have invested in clean and renewable energy. Scope 3 comprises emissions from employee transportation, generation of solid waste and business travelling. We have implemented some initiatives such as remote meetings by conference call to reduce the number of trips and commuting among administrative centers, and promoted awareness-raising campaigns among employees to reduce waste generation. With the purpose of improving the environmental management of our facilities, we endeavor to achieve international environmental certifications. In 2019, the ITM Administrative Center was granted the NBR-ISO 14001:2015 certification, which provides us with a more efficient management of this complex that houses approximately 2,000 employees. Adding up this Administrative Center to two other certified complexes, our Business Center (ISO 14001:2015 certified since 2018) and Tatuapé Administrative Center (ISO 14001:2015 certified since 2011), today 18,000 of our employees at the central management in Brazil are allocated in certified buildings. Also regarding our certifications, since 2016 our Faria Lima 3,500 building has been awarded the triple LEED gold seal certification for sustainable buildings by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), in categories LEED O+M (Operation and Maintenance), LEED BC+C (Building Project and Construction), and LEED ID+C (Interior Design and Construction). Our Mogi Mirim Technology Center (CTMM) is certified as LEED Gold (New Construction) and LEED Silver (New Construction), both granted by the U.S. Green Building Council, and the Tier III Gold, regarding the Design Documents, Constructed Facility, and Operational Sustainability categories, which is the highest certification level granted by Uptime Institute, a world standard setter for data centers. With a branch network spread throughout Brazil, our search for energy efficiency in our facilities is unrelenting. In 2019, we enhanced management, control and automation tools in our branches and replaced air conditioning equipment with more energy efficient models. The highlight about energy is that the bank consumes low environmental impact energy and the purchase of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) in 2019 proved that 100% of our energy is from zero emission renewable sources. Additionally, our energy consumption reduction strategies are focused on research and implementation of new energy efficiency related technology. Top initiatives were the installation of LED light bulbs and of new photovoltaic panels and the replacement of high-energy consumption equipment. In 2020 we proceed with the automation –automated energy control and management tools – for approximately 800 new branches. In 2020 we strengthened our commitment to clean energy by opting for Renewable Energy Certificates (REC), corroborating that 100% of energy consumed by the bank in Brazil comes from renewable sources, with zero emission (market-based approach). Therefore, in addition to reducing the GHG emission, we boost the renewable energy market. We have completed the installation of new photovoltaic panels at the administrative center and kept on the strategy to generate distributed energy through photovoltaic power plants to supply part of our branch network, which total 7 MWp. We will keep on expanding this model in 2021. Due to the nature of our activities, we generate low environmental impact waste compared to other industries. We work in our value chain with awareness-raising initiatives to reduce waste generation and ensure the correct disposal of the waste generated by our activities. We are attentive to initiatives and programs that promote waste management practices. We have increased our coverage in waste management, 154


LOGO

including our branch network. These renovation concepts are based on the principle of respecting any existing framework and materials in the building to generate less waste in construction works. Indicators and vision for the future In the past few years, we have revisited our strategic sustainability guidelines, leading to adjustments to our materiality in order to expand the connection to the business core based on the impact we want to generate. Our current material topics are translated into eight positive impact commitments, which we publicly assumed in 2019. The Responsible Management Commitment aims at improving the environmental performance of operations and foster sustainable practices in our supply chain. Our targets comprise water and energy consumption, reduction of emissions, waste and business trips in our operations in Brazil. Table: Key Performance Indicators (KPI) of our environmental commitments 2021 absolute target 2021 relative target Performance in 2020(1) Water consumption Reduce by 13% our water consumption between 2013 and 2021 Reduce by 51% our water consumption per R$1 million in banking products between 2013 and 2021 We reduced our absolute and relative water consumption by 62% and 74%, respectively Energy consumption Reduce by 15% our energy consumption between 2013 and 2021 Reduce by 52% our energy consumption per R$1 million in banking products between 2013 and 2021 We reduced our absolute and relative energy consumption by 28% and 50%, respectively Renewable energy consumption (administrative buildings) Reach 96% of energy consumed by renewable sources by 2021 Not applicable We reached 100% of energy coming from renewable sources Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) Reach PUE of 1.73 by 2021 Not applicable We reached PUE of 1.79 Scope 1 emissions Reduce by 4% our scope 1 emissions between 2018 and 2021 Reduce by 28% our scope 1 emissions per R$1 million in banking products between 2018 and 2021 We reduced our absolute and relative scope 1 emissions by 27% and 36%, respectively Scope 2 (2) emissions Reduce by 6% our scope 2 emissions between 2018 and 2021 Reduce by 29% our scope 2 emissions per R$1 million in banking products between 2018 and 2021 We reduced both our absolute and relative scope 2 emissions by 100% Waste/sanitary landfill Reduce by 4% the disposal of waste at our administrative units and branch network into landfills between 2018 and 2021 Not applicable The volume of waste sent to landfills increased by 14% 155

With respect to the foreign countries disclosed in item 7.6, please state the extent to which the issuer is subject to regulation in these countries and how this regulation affects the issuer’s business The Issuer has not had substantial revenues from countries other than Brazil. 7.8. With respect to social and environmental policies, please identify: a) whether the issuer discloses environmental and social information Banks interact with all sectors of the economy and, therefore, have significant power to influence positive changes in society. Itaú Unibanco’s mission is to be a leader in sustainable performance and customer satisfaction. Accordingly, we integrate environmental and social issues into our business, taking into account the needs of our clients and employees, civil society, and regulatory bodies. In the last 20 years, we have developed and taken part in a number of initiatives to reduce risks and take advantage of E&S opportunities. We have set up strategies, routines, processes and products, adopted specific policies and signed up to volunteer commitments, such as PRI (Principles for Responsible Investment), EP (Equator Principles), CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project), Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), United Nations Environment Programme – Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), Task Force on Climate-Financial Disclosure (TCFD), and the Principles for Responsible Banking (PRB) which guide our business and institutional practices.

Additionally, with respect to sustainability issues, our driver is the UN 2030 Agenda, which allows the management of risks and opportunities and guidance through global targets. Connecting sustainable development challenges with the company’s business strategy makes it possible to raise the corporate sustainability value. Accordingly, in 2019 we set up Positive Impact Commitments that deliver actions aligned with the SDGs that make up the UN 2030 Agenda. These are: Financing positive impact sectors, Responsible investment, Inclusion and entrepreneurship, Financial citizenship, Transparency of reporting and communication, Ethics in relationships and business, Inclusive management, responsible management, and private social investment. For further information on these commitments, please access: https://www.itau.com.br/sustentabilidade/show.aspx?idCanal=n85k0ifKzH108j1fz4dvcg==&linguagem=en#. We publish information on these topics in our Integrated Annual Report, as well as in its supplementary publications, which follow the reporting guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC) and the AA1000 Accountability Principles (AA1000AP, 2018) for stakeholder engagement. All material information on Sustainability management and the main annual results are included in these documents. To access 2020 information, please click on https://www.itau.com.br/relacoes-cominvestidores/ annual-report/2020/. b) the methodology followed in the preparation of this information To prepare the Integrated Annual Report, we follow GRI, SASB, IIRC and AA1000 principles. The project is conducted by a working group composed of several departments with different expertise. We understand material topics to be those that can affect our value creation in the short-, medium- and long-terms from the viewpoint of our management and main stakeholders. In the past few years, we have revisited our strategic sustainability guidelines, leading to a change in our materiality, which is more connected to the bank’s business and based on the positive impact generated by our business. Accordingly, we elected as material topics our Positive Impact Commitments assumed in 2019, as follows: Transparency of reporting and communication, responsible investment, Financing positive impact sectors, Inclusion and entrepreneurship, Financial citizenship, Ethics in relationships and business, responsible management, Inclusive management, and private social investment. The E&S risk management is deemed priority to the bank and we seek to align this risk management to the best market practices. Accordingly, we have specific procedures to identify, measure, mitigate and monitor the E&S risks for the most significant business lines. We understand that the E&S risk has a significant interface with other types of risks and therefore an integrated and cross-wise management is required. We have thus decided to break down this topic into credit, reputational, legal and regulatory risks. In 2014, CMN Regulation No. 4,327/2014 required that all financial institutions prepared environmental and social responsibility policies that should include measures of risk management, governance and stakeholder relations. The Sustainability, Environmental and Social Responsibility Policy sets out the guidelines and principles that are fundamental to the institution, and is aimed at integrating the best sustainability practices and E&S risk management into its activities, operations and relations with stakeholders that may be impacted. To disseminate the policy guidelines, we provide related training to all involved employees. For this policy, please access: Policy for Sustainability and Social Environmental Responsibility. For this policy, access: Our departments are subject to internal auditing, as part of the risk analysis monitoring process. These audits are carried out by a team that evaluates, among other issues, compliance with the Sustainability and Environmental and Social Responsibility Policy and the commitments and volunteer pacts associated with project finance we have signed up to, such as the Equator Principles. c) whether this information is audited or reviewed by an independent entity The Integrated Annual Report and the ESG Report are prepared by us based on the IIRC and GRI guidelines and address SASB indictors (commercial bank) and TCFD guidance. Additionally, we have agreed to meet the principles defined in the AA1000 AccountAbility Principles 2018 – “AA1000AP (2018)” standard.

ITEM 10. EXECUTIVE OFFICERS’ COMMENTS 10.1. Executive officers should comment on: a) Financial and equity positions in general The financial information found in item 10 (Executive Officers’ Comments) has been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and applicable to operations and business. On January 1, 2018 accounting standard IFRS 9 became effective replacing IAS 39 in the treatment of financial instruments. This new standard is structured to contemplate the pillars of classification, measurement and impairment of financial assets and has been retrospectively applied by Itaú Unibanco Holding. One of the key points concerns the approach to losses occurred. On IFRS 9, credit losses recognized are those expected rather than incurred.

Total assets were up by R$381,770 million, or 23.3%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by increases in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and in loan and lease operations. This result was partially offset by higher provisions for expected loss. These results are further outlined below: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss increased by R$142,652 million, or 44.2%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by: (i) an increase of R$107,996 million in securities at fair value through profit or loss, particularly government securities, which increased by R$66,274 million; and (ii) an increase of R$34,650 million in derivatives, both as part of hedging strategy and client operations. This growth in derivatives is due to higher market volatility, mainly driven by the uncertainties brought about by changes in the macroeconomic scenario as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Please see “Note 5 – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and Financial assets at fair value – securities” and “Note 6 – Derivatives” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Loan and lease operations grew by R$128,313 million, or 21.9%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the following increases: 166

(i) 34.4% in loan portfolio for very small, small and middle-market companies (credit origination by total credit amount rose 24.0%), mainly driven by higher financing for working capital as a result of government-backed credit lines, such as the National Support Program for Micro and Very Small Businesses (Pronampe) and the Investment Guarantee Fund (FGI). These government initiatives aim to guarantee financial resources for very small and small companies to carry on their activities during the Covid-19 pandemic and resulting economic crisis. (ii) 33.5% in corporate loan portfolio (credit origination by total credit amount was up 51.7%), mainly driven by financing of working capital, vehicles and export/import. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and resulting economic crisis, companies’ demand for liquidity has increased. (iii) 31.5% in loan portfolio in Latin America as a result of foreign exchange variations; and (iv) 6.2% in loans to individuals, mainly due to rises of 22.8% in vehicle financing and 19.7% in mortgage loans. Credit origination in loans to individuals increased by 14.1% on a year-on-year basis. This result was partially offset by the 5.0% drop in loan portfolio, mainly due to the reduced volume of transactions involving credit cards in the first half of 2020, on the grounds of the social distancing measures adopted in view of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Please see “Note 10 – Loan and lease operations” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Interbank deposits, securities purchased under agreement to resell and securities at amortized cost were up by R$59,302 million, or 16.2%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the following increases: (i) R$41,513 million in Securities purchased under agreements to resell; (ii) R$21,056 million in interbank deposits impacted by foreign exchange variation. Please see “Note 4 – Interbank deposits and securities purchased under agreement to resell” and “Note 9 – Financial assets at amortized cost – securities” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income were up by R$33,282 million, or 43.4% on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by increases (i) of R$17,217 million in government securities over greater liquidity demand; and (ii) of R$13,831 million in government securities – foreign, particularly in Chile, which grew by R$10,443 million on a year-on-year basis over greater liquidity demand. Please see “Note 8 – Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income – securities” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Tax credits increased by R$17,135 million, or 35.0%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis due to (i) impact of the fiscal hedging of foreign investments, and (ii) higher provisions for expected loss in the period.

Please see below the main changes: Deposits were up 59.5% on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by increases of R$214,068 million in time deposits, R$52,499 million in demand deposits, and R$34,912 million in savings deposits. These increases were mainly driven by funds from Retail Banking and Wholesale Banking clients in the second half of March 2020. These inflows were the result of our strategy to offer fixed-income products (such as bank deposit certificates) combined with greater demand from clients for lower-risk investments and more liquid products. Please see “Note 15 – Deposits” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Interbank and institutional market debt and other financial liabilities were up by R$17,080 million, or 4.3%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the following increases: (i) R$18,761 million in securities issued abroad, including the issue of Senior Notes in the amount of US$1,500 million in January 2020 (equivalent to approximately R$6,404 million on January 31, 2020), (ii) R$15,454 million in subordinated debt, including the issue of Tier 1 Subordinated Notes in the amount of US$690 million in February 2020 (equivalent to approximately R$3,149 million on February 28, 2020); and (iii) R$6,848 million in export and import financing. These items were also directly affected by foreign exchange variations. These increases were partially offset by reductions of R$21,844 million in financial bills and R$6,919 million in rural credit bills on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the maturities of these instruments. Please see “Note 17 – Deposits received under securities repurchase agreements and interbank and institutional market debt” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Deposits received under securities repurchase agreements were up by R$16,781 million, or 6.5%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by increases of R$28,651 million in Money market - Assets received as collateral with right to sell or repledge and of R$11,366 million in assets received as collateral – third party portfolio. These results were partially offset by the reduction of R$23,236 million in assets pledged as collateral – own portfolio, particularly government securities. 168

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss were up by R$31,624 million, or 65.8%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the increase of R$31,677 million in derivatives, as part of both our hedging strategy and client operations. This increase is related to higher market volatility as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Please see “Note 6 – Derivatives” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Total stockholders’ equity was up by R$5,060 million, or 3.4%, on December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by net income of R$15,064 million in the period, which was partially offset by the distribution of R$9,811 million as dividends and interest on capital. b) Capital structure On December 31, 2020, capital stock is represented by 9,804,135,348 (9,804,135,348 on December 31, 2019) portfolio-entry shares with no par value, of which 4,958,290,359 (4,958,290,359 on December 31, 2019) are common and 4,845,844,989 (4,845,844,989 on December 31, 2019) are preferred shares with no voting rights but entitled to tag-along rights, in the event of a public offering of shares, at a price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the amount paid per share with voting rights in the controlling stake, as well as a dividend at least equal to that of the common shares. Capital stock totals R$97,148 million (R$97,148 million on December 31, 2019). In the past three fiscal years, Itaú Unibanco has kept the stake of third-party capital at levels deemed adequate, as follows: In R$ Millions 12/31/2020 % of Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity 12/21/2019 % of Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity 12/31/2018 % of Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity Stockholder´s equity (1) 154,525 7.7% 149,465 9.1% 150,466 9.7% Third parties’ capital (2) 1,864,726 92.3% 1,488,016 90.09% 1,402,331 90.3% Total equity 2,019.251 100.00% 1,637,481 100.0% 1,552,797 100.0% (1) Includes minority interest in subsidiaries (2) Total liabilities excluding stockholders’ equity Capital-to-risk-weighted assets ratio Our total capital3 amounted to R$151,244 million on December 31, 2020, an increase of R$10,648 million on a year-on-year basis. Basel ratio (calculated as total capital-to-risk-weighted assets ratio) reached 14.5% on December 31, 2020, a decrease of 130 basis points compared to 15.8% as of December 31, 2019, mainly driven by the impact of foreign exchange variation, the provision for interest on capital and dividends for fiscal year 2019, and by higher risk-weighted assets (RWA), partially offset by net income for the period and the issuance of Tier 1 and 2 debt instruments. Furthermore, the fixed assets ratio points out that the total capital level is compromised with adjusted permanent assets. Itaú Unibanco is within the 50% maximum limit of total adjusted capital, as set out by the Central Bank of Brazil. On December 31, 2020, the fixed assets ratio reached 24.0%, with a reserve of R$39,274 million. 3 The Total Capital consists of the sum of three items, named: (i). Main Capital: the sum of capital stock, reserves and retained earnings, less deductions and prudential adjustments; (ii). Complementary Capital: composed of perpetual instruments that meet the eligibility requirements. Added to Main Principal, it makes up Level I; and (iii). Level II: composed of subordinated debt instruments with defined maturity that meet the eligibility requirements. Added to Main and Complementary Capital, it makes up Total Capital. 169

Please see “Note 32 – Risk and Capital Management” to our audited consolidated financial statements under IFRS for further information on regulatory capital. c) Payment capacity in relation to financial commitments assumed We ensure our full capacity to honor payments with respect to financial commitments assumed and we manage liquidity reserves by way of estimates of funds that will be available for investments, taking into account business continuity under normal conditions. Liquidity risk is controlled by a department independent from the business departments, and is responsible for defining the set-up of the reserve by proposing assumptions for the behavior of cash flows in different periods, proposing and monitoring liquidity risk limits consistent with the institution’s risk appetite, informing about any noncompliance, considering liquidity risks individually in countries where we operate, simulating the behavior of cash flows under stress conditions, assessing and reporting risks inherent in new products and transactions on a timely basis, and reporting information required by regulatory bodies. All activities are assessed by independent validation, internal controls and audit departments. Furthermore, and in accordance with CVM requirements and rules of the Central Bank of Brazil, we monthly deliver our Liquidity Risk Statements (DLR) to the Central Bank of Brazil, and the following items are regularly prepared and submitted to senior management for monitoring and decision support: • Different scenarios for liquidity projections. • Contingency plans for crisis situations. • Reports and charts for monitoring risk positions. • Assessment of funding costs and alternatives. • Tracking and monitoring funding sources, considering counterparty and maturity, among other aspects. The table below presents assets and liabilities based on remaining contractual terms, considering non-discounted flows.170

Please see “Note 15 – Deposits” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information about funding. We may occasionally seek to settle or purchase our outstanding debt, including subordinated notes (subject to approval from the Central Bank of Brazil), and senior notes through repurchases in the open market, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Occasional repurchases will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. Notes repurchased may be held, canceled or resold and any resale of these notes must be in compliance with applicable requirements or exemptions under relevant securities laws. Some of our long-term debt allows for the repayment in advance of the outstanding principal balance upon the occurrence of certain events, which are ordinarily found in long-term financing agreements. By December 31, 2020, none of these events, including any events of default or failure to satisfy financial covenants, had occurred. Under Brazilian law, cash dividends may only be paid out if the subsidiary paying out such dividends has reported profits in its financial statements. In addition, subsidiaries that are financial institutions are barred from making loans to Itaú Unibanco Holding, but they are allowed to make deposits to Itaú Unibanco Holding, which represent interbank certificates of deposit. These restrictions have not had, and are not expected to 172

The Superior Market and Liquidity Risk Committee (CSRML), composed of senior management members, is responsible for a strategic liquidity risk management in line with the board-approved liquidity risk framework and risk appetite. To set out these guidelines, CSRML factors in the liquidity implications of each market segment and product. Itaú Unibanco’s institutional treasury unit is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Itaú Unibanco Group’s liquidity profile, within parameters set by the Board of Directors and the CSRML. This includes oversight responsibility for all business units operating outside of Brazil. We keep separate liquidity pools at our Brazilian operations and at each of our foreign subsidiaries. Our Brazilian operations include financial institutions in Brazil and the entities used by the Brazilian operations for funding and serving their clients abroad. Each subsidiary has its own treasury function with appropriate autonomy to manage liquidity according to local needs and regulations, while remaining in compliance with the liquidity limits set by our senior management. In general, liquidity transfers rarely occur between subsidiaries or between the head office and a subsidiary, except under very specific circumstances (e.g., targeted capital increases). CMN regulations also set forth that there must be capital conservation and countercyclical buffers for Brazilian financial institutions, as well as minimum percentages, and any sanctions and restrictions that apply in the case of noncompliance with such additional requirements. Based on local market practices and legal restrictions, we define our consolidated group operational liquidity reserve as the total amount of assets that can be rapidly turned into cash. The operational liquidity reserve generally includes cash and deposits on demand, funded position of securities purchased under agreements to resell and unencumbered government securities. The table below presents our operational liquidity reserve on December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018: 173

(3) Present values are included as a result of the change in the reporting of future flows of assets that are now reported as future value as of September 2016. Management controls our liquidity reserves by projecting the funds our treasury unit will have available for investment. The technique we employ involves the statistical projection of scenarios for our assets and liabilities, considering the liquidity profiles of our counterparties. Short-term minimum liquidity limits are defined according to guidelines set by the CSRML. These limits aim to ensure that the Itaú Unibanco Group has sufficient liquidity available to cover unforeseen market events at all times. These limits are revised periodically, based on projected cash needs in atypical market situations (stress scenarios). Management of liquidity makes it possible for us to simultaneously meet operating requirements, protect our capital and exploit market opportunities. Our strategy is to maintain liquidity at suitable levels to meet present and future financial obligations and capitalize on potential business opportunities. We are exposed to the effects of disruptions and volatility in the global financial markets and the economies in countries where we do business, especially Brazil. However, due to our stable sources of funding, which include a large deposit base, the large number of correspondent banks with which we have long-established relationships, as well as credit facilities in place which enable us to access further funding when required, we have not historically experienced liquidity challenges, even during periods of disruption in the international financial markets. Liquidity ratios The Basel III Framework has introduced global liquidity standards, providing for minimum liquidity requirements aimed to ensure that banks can rely on their own sources of liquidity, leaving central banks as a lender of last resort. Basel III provides for two liquidity ratios to ensure that financial institutions have sufficient liquidity to meet short-term and long-term obligations: (i) liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), and (ii) net stable 174

funding ratio (NSFR). We believe that LCR and NSFR provide more material information than a summarized cash flow analysis. We present below an analysis of our LCR and NSFR for the year ended December 31, 2020. Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) LCR measures the short-term resistance of a bank’s liquidity risk profile. It is the ratio of the stock of high quality liquid assets to expected net cash outflows over the next 30 days, assuming a scenario of idiosyncratic or systemic liquidity stress. We calculate our LCR according to the methodology set out by Central Bank Circular No. 3,749/2015. We measure total high liquidity assets at the end of each period to cash outflows and inflows as the daily average value for each period. Pursuant to Central Bank regulations, effective as of October 1, 2018, the minimum NSFR is 100%. Three-month periods ended December 31, Liquidity Coverage Ratio 2020 2019 Total Weighted Value (average) (In millions of R$) Total High Liquidity Assets (HQLA)1 343,174 170,004 Cash Outflows2 309,652 225,349 Cash Inflows3 133,297 111,313 Total Net Cash Outflows 176,355 114,035 LCR% 194.6% 149.1% (1) High Quality Liquidity Assets correspond to inventories, in some cases weighted by a discount factor, of assets that remain liquid in the market even in periods of stress, that can easily be converted into cash and that are classified as low risk. (2) Outflows — total potential cash outflows for a 30-day horizon, calculated for a standard stress scenario as defined by BACEN Circular 3,749. (3) Inflows — total potential cash inflows for a 30-day horizon, calculated for a standard stress scenario as defined by BACEN Circular 3,749. Our average LCR on December 31, 2020 was 194.6%, that is, above Central Bank requirements. Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) The NSFR measures the long-term liquidity risk. It is the ratio of available stable funding to required stable funding over a one-year period, assuming a stress scenario. We calculate LCR according to the methodology set out by Central Bank Circular No. 3869/2017. The NSFR corresponds to the ratio of our available stable funds (ASF) at the end of each period to the required stable funds (RSF) at the end of each period. In accordance with Central Bank regulations, effective as of October 1, 2018, the minimum NSFR is 100%. 175

As of December 31, Net Stable Funding Ratio 2020 2019 Total Ajusted Value (In millions of R$) Total Available Stable Funding (ASF)¹ 956,033 733,242 Total Required Stable Funding (RSF)² 758,907 599,963 NSFR (%) 126.0% 122.2% (1) ASF – Available Stable Funding – refers to liabilities and equity weighted by a discount factor according to their stability, pursuant to Central Bank Circular 3,869/2017. (2) RSF – Required Stable Funding – refers to assets and off-balance exposures weighted by a discount factor to their necessity, pursuant to Central Bank Circular 3,869/2017. On December 31, 2020, ASF totaled R$956.0 billion, mainly driven by capital and retail and wholesale banking funding, and RSF totaled R$758.9 billion, mainly driven by loans and financing with wholesale and retail banking clients, central governments and transactions with central banks. NSFR on December 31, 2020 was 126.0%, that is, above Central Bank requirements. f) Indebtedness ratios and the characteristics of the debts, also describing: I - Relevant loan and financing agreements II - Other long-term relationships with financial institutions The Issuer has funding, borrowings and onlending as its main sources of financing, and a significant portion comes from the retail banking segment. Total funds from clients reached R$1,022.5 billion (R$715.3 billion on December 31, 2019 and R$645.7 billion on December 31, 2018), and noteworthy were time deposits. A significant portion of these funds – 48.0% of total or R$491.2 billion – is immediately available to the client. These growths are associated with the positive inflow of funds and higher demand for liquidity since the second half of March 2020. The table below shows the breakdown of funding with maturities of up to 30 days and total funds from clients.

(2) Refer to deposits received under securities repurchase agreements with securities from own issue. III - Level of subordination of debts In the case of judicial or extrajudicial liquidation of the Issuer, the several bankrupt estate creditors are paid according to priority. Particularly in relation to debt that comprise the Issuer’s indebtedness, the following priority must be followed: secured debts, unsecured debts, subordinated debt eligible to make up Tier II of the issuer’s Referential Equity, and subordinated debt eligible to make up Tier I of the Issuer’s Referential Equity. It is worth mentioning that creditors with secured debts are given priority in relation to others, up to the limit of the asset pledged in guarantee, but they are deemed unsecured creditors in relation to the amount exceeding such limit. Although no subordination exists between the many unsecured creditors or between the creditors of the same type of subordinated debt likewise, creditors with subordinated debt eligible to make up Tier II of the Issuer’s Referential Equity are given priority in relation to creditors with subordinated debt eligible to make up Tier I of the Issuer’s Referential Equity. Funds raised with the issuance of subordinated debt securities are as follows: 176

Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. (or Issuer) set up a program to issue and distribute notes through certain financial intermediaries (“Program”) in March 2010. This Program, as currently existing, establishes that the Issuer itself, or its Cayman Islands branch, may issue senior or subordinated notes, the latter of which are eligible, according to its terms, to make up Tier I or Tier II of the Issuer’s Referential Equity (“Notes“) up to the limit of one hundred billion U.S. dollars (US$100,000,000,000.00). This Program contains financial covenants that determine the acceleration of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes upon the occurrence of certain events, also known as Events of Default, as it is ordinarily included in long-term financing contracts. The Events of Default applicable to the Senior Notes issued under the Program are: (i) nonpayment of financial obligations (principal and interest) due with respect of the Notes (nonpayment); (ii) noncompliance with other material obligations assumed under the corresponding Note other than a financial obligation to pay any amounts under the Notes (breach of other obligations); (iii) default of other debts assumed by Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. or acceleration of other debts assumed by Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. or its relevant subsidiaries (understood as those accounting for at least 10% of total consolidated assets disclosed in the latest annual balance sheet) at an amount equal to or greater than 0.8% of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A’s regulatory capital (cross default); (iv) dissolution (provided that not related to a corporate transaction in which all Itaú Unibanco Holding’s obligations under the Senior Notes are assumed by the successor), insolvency or bankruptcy of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. (dissolution and insolvency); and (v) any events that under Brazilian law have effects similar to those described in item (iv). The Events of Default applicable to the Subordinated Notes issued under the Program up to August 4, 2016 are as follows: (i) nonpayment of financial obligations (non-payment); (ii) dissolution (provided that not related to a merger, takeover or recovery not involving bankruptcy or insolvency, in which all Itaú Unibanco Holding’s obligations are assumed by the successor), insolvency or bankruptcy of Itaú Unibanco Holding (dissolution and insolvency); and (iii) any events that under Brazilian law have effects similar to those described in item (ii). The Events of Default applicable to the Subordinated Notes issued under the Program after August 4, 2016 are described below. 177

On August 4, 2016, the Program was amended to conform to the provisions of National Monetary Council (CMN) Resolution No. 4,192, of March 1, 2013. Any Subordinated Notes issued after that date are subject to permanent termination in the following events: (i) the Issuer disclosing that its Core Capital is at a level lower than 5.125% (for Subordinated Notes eligible to make up Tier I of the Issuer’s Referential Equity) or 4.5% (for Subordinated Notes eligible to make up Tier II of the Issuer’s Referential Equity) of their risk-weighted assets (RWA); (ii) execution of a commitment to contribute funds to the Issuer, if the exception provided for in the heading of Article 28 of Supplementary Law No. 101, of May 4, 2000, occurs; (iii) the Central Bank of Brazil decides on either a special temporary administration or intervention in the Issuer; or (iv) the Central Bank of Brazil decides on the expiration of Subordinated Notes, according to the criteria set forth by the National Monetary Council. Additionally, the Subordinated Notes eligible to make up the Tier I of the Issuer’s Referential Equity provides for (i) the payment of related interest earned only through funds from profits and revenue reserves subject to distribution in the last calculation period; and (ii) the suspension of payment of any related interest earned (a) exceeding the amounts available for this purpose; (b) in the same proportion of the restriction imposed by the Central Bank of Brazil to the dividend distribution or other results related to shares eligible to the Issuer’s Core Capital; (c) in the same percentages of retention as the amount payable or distributable as (x) variable compensation to management members; and (y) dividends and interest on capital, in view of any insufficiency of Additional Core Capital. Regarding the aforementioned events, any interest of which payment is suspended will be deemed terminated. None of situations described above will be deemed an Event of Default or another factor giving rise to debt acceleration in any legal business in which the Issuer takes part. The Events of Default applicable to Subordinated Notes eligible to make up the Issuer’s Referential Equity issued after August 4, 2016 are as follows: (i) nonpayment of financial obligations (non-payment), even though its occurrence causes no acceleration of the outstanding balance of these Notes; (ii) dissolution (provided that not related to a corporate transaction in which all Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A.’s obligations under the Senior Notes are assumed by the successor), insolvency or bankruptcy of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. (dissolution and insolvency) and (iii) any events that under the Brazilian law have effects similar to those described in item (ii).

LOGO

Disposal of Assets and Stockholding Control. The Issuer is allowed to dispose of all or a substantial portion of its assets, including through corporate restructuring (such as merger and spin-off processes) without the consent of the owners of the Notes, provided that, as a result of the transactions below: (i) the entity receiving these assets or succeeding the Issuer undertakes to comply with all repayment obligations of the principal and interest arising from any notes issued under this Program, as well as to assume all other obligations imposed on the Issuer; (ii) no event of default occurs by carrying out these transactions; and (iii) based any public announcement of the transaction and before its completion, the Issuer’s management represent to the trustee that the asset disposal is in compliance with the obligations and restrictions imposed on the Issuer, and the Issuer’s legal advisors deliver a legal opinion to the trustee on the assumption of obligations arising from the Program by the new entity taking over the assets or succeeding the Issuer. g) Limits on financing already contracted and percentages used Itaú Unibanco is subject to parameters required by monetary authorities, in accordance with the Basel principles. Management considers the current Basel ratio to be appropriate (14.5% based on the Prudential Conglomerate, of which 13.2% of Tier I and 1.3% of Tier II). Furthermore, Itaú Unibanco Holding exceeds the minimum Referential Equity required by R$67,867 million (R$69,292 million on December 31, 2019), higher than the Additional Core Capital of R$23,450 million (R$31,195 million on December 31, 2019), widely covered by available capital. 180

(2) Includes commissions and banking fees, income from insurance and private pension operations before claim and selling expenses and other income. 2020 compared to 2019 Net income attributable to the owners of the parent company decreased by 30.3%, amounting to R$18,896 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 from R$27,113 million on a year-on-year basis. This result was mainly driven by a 14.4% decrease in operating revenues and a 39.9% increase in expected loss from financial assets and claims. Decrease in net income attributable to the owners of the parent company was partially offset by an increase of R$13,264 million in current and deferred income tax and social contribution. These line items are further described below. Net interest income decreased by R$19,297 million, or 27.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by a decrease of R$12,154 million in the adjustment to fair value of financial assets and liabilities, mainly due to the tax effect on hedging instruments for our foreign investments. The result of exchange rate variations on foreign investments is non-taxable, whereas revenue from our hedging instruments is taxable. Accordingly, the depreciation of the Brazilian real against foreign currencies, especially the U.S. dollar, generates losses on our hedging instruments abroad. Conversely, the appreciation of the Brazilian real against foreign currencies generates gains on our hedging instruments abroad. This affects our tax expenses allocated in line items “current and deferred income and social 182


LOGO

contribution taxes” and “other operating income (expenses).” In the year ended December 31, 2020, the nominal depreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar was 28.9% from a 4.0% depreciation on a year-on-year basis. The tax effect on the hedging instruments for foreign investments resulted on a gain of R$17,701 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 from a gain of R$2,499 million in 2019. As a result, disregarding the aforementioned tax effect on the hedging instruments for our foreign investments, net interest income increased by R$4,095 million in the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis. Interest and similar income of financial assets at amortized cost and at fair value through other comprehensive income decreased by 3.6% in the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the increase of R$6,365 million in income from securities purchased under agreement to resell and by the decrease of R$2,492 million in compulsory deposits in the Central Bank of Brazil, as a result of low interest rates. On December 31, 2020, the Selic rate was 1.90% per year from 4.40% per year on a year-on-year basis. Our loan portfolio balance increased by 21.9% in the period, whereas revenue from loan portfolio decreased by 1.9%, mainly driven by: (i) lower spread on loan products, particularly for government-backed credit lines for very small, small and middle-market companies, (ii) lower interest rates for financing of working capital, and (iii) regulatory changes, mainly CMN Resolution No. 4,765, which imposes a threshold of 8% per month on overdraft interest rates in current account. Furthermore, this result was partially offset by an increase of R$6,224 million in income from financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income mainly driven by foreign exchange variations. Interest and similar expenses decreased by 3.2% in the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by: (i) decrease of R$9,783 million in deposits received under securities repurchase agreements, mainly driven by the reduction of R$23,236 million in assets pledged as collateral – own portfolio, particularly in government securities; and (ii) decrease in financial expenses on technical provisions for insurance and private pension plans, which totaled an expense of R$8,121 million in the year ended December 31, 2020 from an expense of R$16,720 million on a year-on-year basis, due to the lower net value of assets of investment fund units and consequent impact on pension plans. This result was partially offset by the increase in interbank market debt, mainly driven by an increase of R$6,848 million in export and import financing, which in turn was impacted by foreign exchange variation. Please see “Note 21 –Interest and Similar Income and Expense and Net Gain (Loss) on Investment in Securities and Derivatives” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information about interest and similar expenses. Non-interest income increased by 5.1%, totaling R$50,146 in the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by a rise of 71.4%, or R$2,957 million, in other revenues, mainly due to gains from the partial disposal of our shares in XP Inc. On December 2 and 17, 2020, we sold 4.44% and 0.07%, respectively, of our interest in XP Inc., through a public offering on Nasdaq, which generated income before taxes in the amount of R$3,996 million. Concurrently to these sales, XP Inc. completed a public offering (follow-on) which resulted in the dilution of our interest, reaching 41.00% of XP Inc.’s total capital stock, giving rise to gains from the primary subscription of our investment in XP Inc. of R$545 million. This increase in non-interest income was partially offset by a drop of 1.2%, or R$475 million, in banking service fees, on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by a decrease of R$1,806 million in revenue from transactions with credit and debit cards, including acquiring activities, revenue from merchant discount rate (MDR), rental of equipment and factoring receivables, occurred mostly in the first half of 2020 as a result of the social distancing measures adopted in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. This decrease in banking service fees was offset by: 183

(i) Increase of 15.2%, or R$382 million, in revenue from advisory and brokerage services on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by an increment in capital market activities. On December 31, 2020, we were the underwriters in fixed-income transactions in Brazil totaling R$6,936 million and were ranked 1st in volume of business in this segment according to the Brazilian Association of Financial and Capital Markets (ANBIMA). We also provided financial advisory services to 47 mergers and acquisitions in South America over 2020, totaling US$8,139 million in business volume, being ranked 1st in number of trades according to Dealogic; and (ii) Increase of 10.8%, or R$614 million, in revenue from asset management fees on a year-on-year basis. Our assets under management rose by 14.2% in the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, accounting for increases of 14.7% in revenue from own product fees and of 11.2% in revenue from open platform fees.

Please see “Note 22 – Banking service fees” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information on banking service fees. Expected Loss from Financial Assets and Claims To fully reflect the risk of our loan operations, we adopt the expect loss model to account for operations from the moment credit is granted on, which are adjusted from time to time based on macroeconomic variables and each client’s specific circumstances. In 2020, in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, the economic scenarios had an even greater impact on the calculation of provision for loan losses. On December 31, 2020, our coverage ratio was 319.9% from 229.5% on a year-on-year basis, as a result of the changes to macroeconomic variables and each client’s specific circumstances. Specifically, in 2020 we increased our provision for expected loan losses for clients who have had no warnings signs of worsening conditions up to the Covid-19 outbreak (default or downgrade in client score). Our credit risk governance has 184

allowed us to promptly respond to the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on our loan portfolio, enabling us to rapidly access the information required for the crisis management forum’s daily discussions and actions. Our expected losses on financial assets and claims increased by R$7,413 million, or 39.9%, in the year ended December 31, 2020 on a year-on-year basis, mainly driven by the increase of R$6.154 million in expected losses on loan and leases in the year ended December 31, 2020. Such increase is associated with the changes in the macroeconomic scenario and unfavorable financial prospects for individuals and companies from the half of March 2020 on, as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. In the year ended December 31, 2020, we recognized a provision for expected loan losses in the amount of R$6,249 million for loan operations in Latin America, mainly driven by certain corporate clients in Latin America. Our expected loan losses on very small, small and middle-market companies increased by R$1,820 million, mainly driven by a higher balance of loan operations in those segments caused by the government-back credit lines, such as the National Support Program for Very Small and Small Companies (Pronampe) and the Investment Guarantee Fund (FGI). Please see “Note 2— – Significant accounting policies” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information on the assessment of our expected loan losses. Please see “Note 10 – Loan and lease operations” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information on our loan and lease operations. Non-performing loans: We calculate 90-day non-performing loans ratio (NPL) as the ratio of the value of 90-day NPL to loan portfolio. On December 31, 2020, our 90-day NPL ratio was 2.7%, down 76 basis points on a year-on-year basis, mainly due to a 78 basis points decrease of the 90-day NPL ratio for loans to individuals and a 49 basis points decrease for loans to companies, mainly driven by loans with reprofiled payment terms offered to our clients in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The higher balance of renegotiated loan operations has led to a decrease in the 90-day NPL balance in the period. Compared to September 30, 2020, our 90-day NPL increased by 10 basis points in the quarter ended December 31, 2020, mainly driven by the end of the grace period of loans reprofiled in previous periods. We calculate 15-90 day NPL ratio as the ratio of the value of 15-90 day NPL to loan portfolio. The 15-90 day NPL ratio is an indicator of early delinquency. On December 31, 2020, our 15-90 day NPL ratio was 1.8%, down 50 basis points on a year-on-year basis. During this period, the 15-90 day NPL for loans to companies increased 9 basis points. Our 15-90 day NPL ratio of loans to individuals decreased 96 basis points due to loans with reprofiled payment terms offered to our clients in response to the Covid 19 pandemic. The increase in the balance of renegotiated loan operations has resulted in lower 15-90 day NPL in the period compared to 2019. In que quarter ended December 31, 2020, our 15-90 day NPL ratio for companies increased 47 basis points, mainly driven by the end of the grace period of reprofiled loans in previous periods. The loan portfolio with reprofiled payment terms totaled R$50.8 million on December 31, 2020, a 5.0% decrease from September 30, 2020. By December 31, 2020, 96.1% of the grace periods of loans with reprofiled payment terms had expired, of which 82.6% of payments were performing (and 8.3% of outstanding amounts for loans with reprofiled payment terms were past due 15 to 90 days and 5.2% were past due over 90 days). Non-overdue reprofiled loan portfolio 86.5% As of December 31, 2020 Performing 82.6% Overdue between 15-90 days 8.3% Overdue over 90 days 5.2% Within Grace Periods 3.9% 185

On December 31, 2020, coverage ratio was 319.9% compared to 229.5% on December 31, 2019. This increase was mainly driven by lower balance of loans past due over 90 days, as a result of the loans with reprofiled payment terms, and to the provision recognized over the changes in the macroeconomic scenario from the second half of March 2020 on, as captured by our loan loss provision model. In the quarter ended December 31, 2020, our coverage ratio dropped 19.34 percentage points, due to the increase in 90-day NPL caused by the end of grace period of reprofiled loans in previous periods. The chart below shows a comparison of both NPL ratios for each quarter on December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2020: Coverage Ratio (90 days) (1) 229.5% 239.3% 281.0% 339.2% 319.9% Dec/19 Mar/20 Jun/20 Sep/20 Dec/20 (1) Data presented in BRGAAP. 186

Other operating income (expenses) increased by 2.6% to an expense of R$68,989 million in the year ended December 31, 2020 from an expense of R$67,269 million in 2019, mainly due to the non-recurring events as follows: (i) decrease in goodwill impairment and intangible assets recorded by Itaú Corpbanca in the amount of R$5,906 million; (ii) a R$1,047 donation million to the Todos pela Saúde (All for Health) program; and (iii) increase of R$2,385 million in personnel expenses over the voluntary severance program launched in 2019. The Todos pela Saúde Program is an initiative set up by Itaú Unibanco in April 2020 to fight the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on Brazilian society. Disregarding the aforementioned non-recurring events, our operating income (expenses) dropped 2.3% to an expense of R$57,254 million in the year ended December 31, 2020 from an expense of R$58,627 million in 2019, mainly due to: (i) decrease of R$872 million in personnel expenses as a result of fewer terminations, which were suspended from March to September 2020 owing to the actions implemented to address the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. Furthermore, our profit sharing expenses decreased as a result of the challenging macroeconomic scenario due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which led to lower profits. This result was partially offset by: (a) increase in compensation expenses, mainly driven by the rise in the total number of employees, particularly technology department professionals, and (b) Collective bargaining agreement, which settled for a 1.5% salary increase and a R$2,000 bonus to employees in Brazil in September 2020; (ii) decrease of R$567 million in credit card selling expenses in connection with the certification of REDE and decrease in credit card brand expenses caused by a downturn in economic activity over the social distancing measures adopted in view of the Covid-19 pandemic; and (iii) decrease of R$55 million in administrative expenses, notably lower expenses on data processing and telecommunications, marketing, promotions and advertising, travel and transportation, over reduction in commuting and remote working arrangements during the Covid-19 pandemic. Please see “Note 23 – General and administrative expenses” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. Current and deferred income tax and social contribution totaled an income of R$9,834 million in the year ended December 31, 2020 from an expense of R$3,430 million in 2019. This was mainly driven by tax effect on hedging instruments for our foreign investments, as mentioned in item “Net interest income”, which totaled a gain of R$16,097 million in the year ended December 31, 2020 from a gain of R$2,281 million in 2019. Disregarding this tax effect, current and deferred income and social contribution taxes increased 9.7% in the year ended December 31, 2020 from 2019. In 2019 tax authorities reduced for some time the income tax and social contribution rate to 40%. However, from March 1, 2020 on, the rate was back to 45%. This rise in rate was partially offset by: (i) increases in the provisions for expected loan losses in the period (giving rise to deferred tax assets) and (ii) decrease in income before income tax and social contribution. Please see “Note 24 – Taxes” to our audited consolidated financial statements for further information. b) Changes in revenue arising from changes in prices, foreign exchange rates, inflation, volumes and the introduction of new products and services Our operations depend on the performance of the economies of the countries where we do business, mainly the Brazilian economy. The demand for credit, financial services and our client’s creditworthiness are directly impacted by macroeconomic variables, such as the economic activity, income, unemployment, inflation, and changes in interest and foreign exchange rates. Changes in interest rates may significantly affect our net margins since they influence funding and lending costs. The main change in income are outlined in item 10.2a of this document. 187

c) Impact of inflation, changes in the prices of main inputs and products, foreign exchange rates and interest rates on operating and financial income and expenses of the issuer, if relevant We carried out a sensitivity analysis per market risk factors considered material. Resulting highest losses, per risk factor in each scenario, are outlined with their impact on income, net of tax effects, to provide a view of our exposure in exceptional scenarios. The market risk structure segregates operations between trading and banking portfolios, according to the general criteria set out by CMN Resolution No. 4,557 of February 23, 2017, and Circular No. 3354 of June 27, 2007 of the Central Bank of Brazil. The sensitivity analyses of the trading and banking portfolios, shown below, represent a steady assessment of the portfolio exposure and therefore do not factor in management’s dynamic response capacity (treasury and control departments) to put into effect mitigating measures whenever a situation of loss or high risk is identified to minimize possible significant losses. Moreover, it should be noted that actual results do not necessarily translate into accounting results, as the sole purpose of the study is to disclose risk exposure and respective hedging actions, taking into account the fair value of financial instruments, irrespective of the accounting practices adopted by the Company. The trading portfolio consists of all transactions with financial instruments and commodities, including derivatives, which are held with a trading intention.

To measure these sensitivities, we use the scenarios below and estimate the impact of each risk factor alone, excluding any effects that offset or underline these effects, among many factors: • Scenario I: Addition of one basis point to fixed interest rates, currency coupon, inflation and interest rate indices and one percentage point to currency and share prices; • Scenario II: Shocks at 25 per cent in fixed interest rates, currency coupon, inflation, interest rate indices and currency and share prices, both upwards and downwards, considering the largest resulting losses per risk factor; • Scenario III: Shocks at 50 per cent in fixed interest rates, currency coupon, inflation, interest rate indexes and currency and share prices, upwards and downwards, considering the largest resulting losses per risk factor. Consolidated Value at Risk (VaR) is calculated using the historical simulation methodology. This methodology fully reprices all positions by using the actual historical distribution of assets. From January 1 to December 31, 2020, total average Value at Risk (VaR) under historical simulation amounted to R$282 million, or 0.2% of total stockholders’ equity (for the whole of 2019 it was R$334 million or 0.2% of total stockholders’ equity). Structural gap, composed of commercial transactions and corresponding financial instruments, has historically remained stable with small variations, being primarily composed of assets and liabilities of our retail banking activities and derivatives used as hedge against the market risk of these transactions. 188

Most of our banking operations are denominated in or indexed to Brazilian reais. We also have assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, mainly U.S. dollars, as well as assets and liabilities that, although denominated in Brazilian reais, are indexed to U.S. dollars and, therefore, expose us to exchange rate risk. The Central Bank of Brazil regulates our foreign currency positions. Please see section “Currency risk” of the Complete Financial Statements (IFRS), Note 32 – Risk and capital management for further information. The gap management policy adopted by the CSRML takes into account tax effects related to our foreign exchange positions. Since gains from foreign exchange rate variation on foreign investments are given a specific treatment, we have set up hedge (a liability in foreign currency derivative instruments) in amount sufficient so that our total foreign exchange exposure, net of tax effects, is consistent with our low risk exposure strategy. Our foreign exchange position on the liability side is composed of various elements, including the issuance of securities in international capital markets, credit from foreign banks used to finance import and export transactions, dollar-linked onlending from government financial institutions and deposits in currencies from Latin America countries. The proceeds of these financial operations are usually invested in loans and purchase of dollar-linked securities. The information below has been prepared on a consolidated basis, eliminating related-party transactions. Foreign investments, eliminated during the consolidation process, amounted to R$60.7 billion on December 31, 2020, under the gap management policy adopted, as mentioned above. Note that the bank applies either economic hedge or hedge accounting to net foreign investments.

Executive officers should comment on the material effects that may have been caused or are expected to be caused to the Issuer’s financial statements and their results a) Introduction or disposal of operating segments Disclosure of results by segment The current business segments of Itaú Unibanco are described below: ✓ Retail Banking: The results of the Retail Banking segment derive from the offers of products and services to retail banking clients, high income clients and to very small and small companies. This segment comprises banking products and services provided to account holders and non-account holders. Products and services offered include: Personal credit, credit cards, payroll loans, vehicle financing, mortgage loans, insurance, pension plan and capitalization, and acquiring services, among others. ✓ Wholesale Banking: The results of the Wholesale Banking segment derive from: i) Itaú BBA’s operations, the unit responsible for business with large companies and investment banking operations, ii) the results of our foreign units; and iii) products and services offered to middle-market companies, high net worth clients (Private Banking), and institutional clients. ✓ Trading & Institutional: The results of this segment derive from capital surplus, subordinated debt surplus and net balance of tax credits and debits. It also underlines the financial margin with the market, treasury operating costs, and equity in earnings of companies not associated with either of these segments. b) incorporation, acquisition or disposal of ownership interest XP Investimentos S.A. On May 11, 2017, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with XP Controle Participações S.A., G.A. Brasil IV Fundo de Investimento em Participações, and Dyna III Fundo de Investimento em Participações, among others, as sellers, to acquire 49.9% of the capital stock (corresponding to 30.06% of the common shares) of XP Investimentos S.A., a holding company that consolidates all the investments of the XP group, including XP Investimentos Corretora de Câmbio, Títulos e Valores Mobiliários S.A. In the first tranche, we contributed to a capital increase of R$600 million and acquired of XP Investimentos S.A.’s shares from the Sellers for R$5.7 billion, provided that such amounts are subject to contractual adjustments. The value attributed to 100% of the total capital stock of XP Investimentos S.A. (before the first tranche) was approximately R$12 billion. In August 2018, we closed the First Tranche and, together with some of the Sellers, entered into a shareholders’ agreement which contains, among others, provisions with respect to our rights as a minority shareholder, including our right to appoint two out of the seven members of the Board of Directors of XP Investimentos S.A. On November 29, 2019, there was a corporate reorganization of XP Investimentos S.A., in which the shareholders of XP Investimentos S.A., including us, exchanged their shares of XP Investimentos S.A., incorporated in Brazil, for Class A common shares and Class B common shares of XP Inc., incorporated in the Cayman Islands, remaining with the percentages in the capital stock. Each Class A common share entitles its holder to one vote and each Class B common share entitles its holder to ten votes in all shareholders’ resolutions of XP Inc.. As a result of the contribution mentioned above, XP Inc. issued to us 792,861,320 Class A common shares and 223,595,962 Class B common shares, which represent 49.9% of the total capital of XP Inc. and 30.06% of its voting rights. XP Inc. became the sole shareholder of XP Investimentos S.A., owning 100% of its total and voting capital. Subsequently, on November 30, 2019, XP Inc. carried out a reverse stock split of one share for each four shares and, as a result, the number of shares held by us was adjusted to 198,215,329 Class A common shares and 55,898,991 Class B common shares. 190

In December 2019, XP Inc., a company in which we held 49.9% of capital stock, completed its initial primary offer (IPO) and listing on Nasdaq. We did not sell XP Inc. shares in such offer and immediately after the completion of the IPO, we now hold 46.05% of XP Inc.’s capital stock. Additionally, on November 29, 2019, the stockholders of XP Inc. entered into a shareholder agreement substantially similar to then existing shareholder agreement of XP Investimentos S.A. XP Inc. has a board of directors composed of 13 members, of which XP Controle A Participações S.A. appointed 7 members, we appointed 2 members, the General Atlantic (XP) Bermuda, LP (successor to GA Brasil IV Fundo de lnvestimento em Participações) appointed 1 member, and the 3 remaining members are independent directors. These independent directors are also members of the audit committee of XP lnc., which is composed of 3 members appointed as follows: we appointed 2 members, and XP Controle Participações SA appointed one member of the audit committee. On November 26, 2020, we announced that the Board of Directors approved the partial spin-off of the investment in XP INC for a new company (XPart S.A.). In December 2020 XP Inc. held a follow-on on Nasdaq, whereby we sold approximately 4.51% of XP Inc.’s capital. In that same offering, XP Inc. issued new shares, resulting in the dilution of our stake to 41% of its share capital. At the Extraordinary Stockholders’ Meeting held on January 31, 2021, the corporate reorganization was decided in order to segregate the business line related to interest in XP Inc’s capital to the new company that will be named XPart S.A., which will be constituted by a part of the investment currently owned by us at XP Inc. and cash worth R$10 million. The purpose of the segregation of the business line represented by our investment in XP Inc. into a new company (XPart SA) is that our stockholders will be entitled to equity interest in XPart SA in the same number and proportion of the shares they hold in Itaú Unibanco, as per the Material Fact disclosed on December 31, 2020. Therefore, the main benefit of the Transaction is value creation for our stockholders.The completion of this transaction was subject to regulatory approval to be obtained by our controlling shareholders. On May 28, 2021, the favorable approval of the Federal Reserve Board (“FED”) was obtained, effective on May 31, 2021, the date from which the legal and accounting segregation of Itaú Unibanco Holding and XPart materialized. Consequently, XP Inc’s capital stock held by XPart S.A. is now 40.52%, totaling R$9,371, as of December 31, 2020. XPart will have its incorporation documents duly filed with the Central Bank of Brazil and other proper registration bodies. The shares issued by Itaú Unibanco, as well as the American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) will continue to be traded including the right to receive securities issued by XPart until the cut-off date (date of ex-right), which will be set and informed to the market as soon as possible. XP Inc. has expressed its interest in merging XPart and, accordingly, XP Inc. and Itaúsa announced to the market on May 28, 2021, that they have reached a final understanding regarding the merger. If the merger of XPart into XP Inc. is carried out, which will be resolved at the General Stockholders’ Meetings of these companies at a date to be defined, which are expected by XP Inc. and Itaúsa to be held in the middle of the second half of 2021, the cut-off date mentioned above is planned to be after the closing of the trading session at the date of these General Stockholders’ Meetings. As disclosed by Itaúsa and XP, should the said merger be approved by the stockholders of XP Inc. and XPart at the General Stockholders’ Meetings of these companies, the stockholders of Itaú Unibanco Holding, who until the cut-off date will be entitled to receive securities issued by XPart, will receive: (a) as for the Company’s controlling stockholders, IUPAR – Itaú Unibanco Participações S.A. and Itaúsa, and the holders of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Class A shares issued by XP Inc., and (b) as for the remaining stockholders, Level I sponsored Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs), replacing the securities they would receive from XPart, which will not be listed on a stock exchange (because it will be dissolved after its merger into XP). Note that, in case XPart is not merged or is not listed on a stock exchange within a period of 120 days as from the date of approval from the Central Bank of Brazil above mentioned, stockholders will be entitled to withdraw from XPart, in accordance with paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article 223 of Law No. 6,404/76. Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. will keep its stockholders and the market informed of the progress and developments of this operation, including, as the case may be, details on the start of the period to exercise the 191

right to reimbursement of shares by the stockholders dissenting from the merger resolved upon at the XPart’s General Stockholders’ Meeting, in accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 137 of Law 6,404/76. Lastly, conditioned on approval from the Central Bank of Brazil, pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement signed in 2017, we will purchase an additional stake of approximately 11.38% of XP Inc.’s capital stock, in 2022. The management and conduct of business of all companies within XP group, including XP Inc., remains independent, segregated and autonomous, preserving the same principles and values that are currently in force. XP Controle’s partners will maintain control of the XP group, and the current directors, officers and executives of XP Investimentos S.A. and other subsidiaries will remain at the forefront of their respective businesses, in order to ensure that XP Investimentos S.A. will continue to act as an open and independent platform, offering a diversified range of proprietary and third party products to its clients, competing freely with other brokers and capital market distributors, including those controlled by us, without any restrictions or barriers. ZUP On October 31, 2019, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with ZUP LLC, and Bruno Cesar Pierobon, Gustavo Henrique Cunha Debs, Felupe Liguabue Almeida, Flavio Henrique Zago, among others (“Sellers”), for the acquisition of 100% of the voting share capital of Zup I.T. Serviços em Tecnologia e Inovação Ltda (“Zup”) for R$575 million, and such amount is subject to contractual adjustments. Such acquisition will be implemented in three tranches over four years. In the first tranche, which closing occurred in March 31, 2020, Itaú acquired 52.96% of the total voting share capital of Zup (in fully diluted basis) for approximately R$293 million and will control the company. On the third year after the completion of the operation, Itaú will acquire an additional 19.6% stake, and on the fourth year Itaú will acquire the remaining stockholders’ interest, holding, therefore, 100% of the voting share capital by 2024. This acquisition is linked to our digital transformation process. ZUP is a benchmark company in digital transformation, which has boosted our development of our IT systems. The operation and management of business affairs of Zup will continue to be totally independent and self-governing in relation to Itaú, preserving its current principles and values. IRB Initial Public Offering of IRB In July 2017, IRB-Brasil Resseguros S.A. (IRB) made an initial public offering of its common shares, which consisted of a public offering at a price of R$27.24 per share, and a secondary offering by its controlling shareholders of 63,960,000 registered book-entry common shares with no par value to (i) the public in Brazil, (ii) certain qualified institutional buyers in the United States (as defined in Rule 144A, or Rule 144A, under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act), and (iii) institutional and other investors elsewhere outside the United States and Brazil that are not U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act, or Regulation S). As a result of the initial public offering, Itaú Vida e Previdência S.A. sold 677,400 common shares, representing the total interest held by Itaú Vida e Previdência S.A. in IRB’s capital stock, and Itaú Seguros S.A. sold 9,618,600 common shares, representing 3.1% of IRB’s capital stock, reducing its interest in IRB to 11.64% of IRB’s capital stock, remaining among the controlling block shareholders pursuant to the company’s shareholders agreement. The proceeds received by Itaú Seguros S.A. and Itaú Vida e Previdência S.A. in the initial public offering totaled R$280,463,040.00. In accordance with Article 24 of CVM Normative Rule No. 400, the number of common shares initially offered could be increased by up to 9,594,000 common shares, representing up to 15% of the common shares initially offered, if the stabilizing agent (or any person acting on behalf of the stabilizing agent) exercises the over-allotment option. As a result of the full exercise of the over-allotment option by the stabilizing agent on August 28, 2017, Itaú Seguros S.A. became the owner of 11.14% of IRB’s capital stock. On July 10, 2019, the IRB conducted a secondary public offering of its common shares. With the sale of the entire participation held by the União and BB Seguros in IRB except in the case of the União, by Golden Share, the previously existing control block of the Company was dissolved, and its share capital was pulverized. 192

c) Unusual events or operations In addition to the items underlined in item 10.3 b hereof, we highlight the following unusual events: In 2020: (i) decrease in goodwill impairment and intangible assets of Itaú Corpbanca in the amount of R$(1,452) million, net of tax effects and interest of non-controlling stockholders; (ii) donations made for the Todos pela Saúde (All for Health) program in the total amount of R$(1,047) million; (iii) the mark-to-market effect of securities pledged as collateral of R$(1,031) million; (iv) the adjustment to market value of IRB shares in the amount of R$379 million; and (v) the provision for restructuring in the amount of R$(220) million, mainly related to closing branches, returning administrative buildings, among others. In 2019: (i) Revaluation of inventory of deferred tax assets, including the annual revaluation of balances, and the effects of Constitutional Amendment No. 103/2019 on Social Contribution on Net Income (CSLL) rate, which increased from 15% to 20%, in conformity with the provisions of item I, paragraph 1 of Article 1 of Supplementary Law No. 105 of January 10, 2001, totaling R$2,024, and (ii) the effect of the Voluntary Severance Program, with the adherence of approximately 3,500 employees, the net effect of which was R$1,431. This severance program is aimed to: (i) provide the opportunity of a secure and voluntary career transition for employees interested in leaving the bank, benefiting employees who meet certain established prerequisites, and (ii) adjust our structures to the market reality. In 2018 there were no material unusual events. 10.4. Executive officers should comment on: a) Significant changes in accounting practices In 2020 there were no significant changes in accounting policies. In 2019, IFRS 16 – Leases was adopted. This pronouncement has replaced IAS 17 – Leases as well as related interpretations (IFRIC 4, SIC 15 and SIC 27). The main changes introduced by the IFRS 16 were the elimination of the need for lessees to account for operating leases with the advancement of a single lease model, consisting of: (a) initially accounting for all leases in assets (right-of-use asset) and liabilities (other liabilities) at present value; and (b) accounting for depreciation of right-of-use-assets and lease interest separately in profit or loss. We have adopted the IFRS 16 through the modified retrospective transition model, using the criteria as follows: • a single discount rate to be applied to a portfolio of lease contracts with similar characteristics; • lease liability and right-of-lease assets are measured at present value of remaining lease payments; and • review of contracts and lease terms. Furthermore, no new finance sub leases were recorded. In 2018, IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments was adopted to replace IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The main changes identified with the adoption of IFRS 9 are related to the classification, measurement and impairment of financial assets. We have applied the IFRS 9 retrospectively as from January 1, 2016, except for hedge accounting requirements, for which we will continue to apply IAS 39. Furthermore, we have changed the policy related to partial write-off of financial assets under IAS 8, aligning the behavior of recovery of financial assets to their economic recognition. 193

Please see the Complete Financial Statements (IFRS), Note 2 – Significant accounting policies for further information about changed policies. b) Significant effects from changes in accounting policies In 2020 and 2019, there were no effects from changes in accounting policies. In accordance with the Complete Financial Statements (IFRS) Note 2.2a, the changes in accounting policies in 2018 (basically from the adoption of IFRS 9), have adversely impacted stockholders’ equity by R$3,462 on December 31, 2017, R$2,487 on December 31, 2016 and R$275 on January 1, 2016, respectively. c) Qualifications and emphases presented in the auditor’s report There were no qualifications or emphases in the auditor’s report for 2020, 2019, and 2018. 10.5. Executive officers should indicate and comment on the critical accounting policies adopted by the issuer, in particular, accounting estimates made by management on uncertain and relevant issues for describing the financial position and results of operations that require subjective or complex judgment, such as: provisions, contingencies, revenue recognition, tax credits, long-lived assets, useful life of noncurrent assets, pension plans, foreign currency translation adjustments, environmental recovery costs, criteria for asset and financial instrument impairment tests. Overview Our main accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements involves certain estimates and assumptions derived from past experience and various other factors that we deem reasonable and relevant. While we continuously review these estimates and assumptions in the ordinary course of business, the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations often requires our management to make judgments on matters that are inherently uncertain. The following discussion describes the areas that require the most judgment or involve a higher degree of complexity in the application of the accounting policies that currently affect our financial position and results of operations. Use of estimates and assumptions The preparation of consolidated financial statements under IFRS requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, and contingent assets reported on the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, gains, and losses over the reporting and subsequent periods, as actual results may differ from those determined based on such estimates and assumptions. The consolidated financial statements include various estimates and assumptions. The critical accounting estimates and assumptions that significantly impact assets’ and liabilities’ carrying amounts are described below: Expected credit losses The measurement of expected credit losses requires the application of significant assumptions, such as: • Term: we consider the maximum contractual period in which we will be exposed to the credit risk of financial instruments. However, the estimated useful life of assets without a determined maturity term is based on the period of exposure to credit risk. Additionally, all contractual terms are included in the calculation of expected life, including prepayment and rollover options. • Forward-looking information: IFRS 9 requires a weighted and unbiased estimate of credit losses that comprises forecasts of future economic conditions. We use forward-looking macroeconomic information and public information with internally-prepared projections to determine the impact of these estimates upon calculation of expected credit losses. • Probability-weighted loss scenarios: we use weighted scenarios to determine expected credit losses during a period suitable for a classification in stages, considering a forecast based on economic variables. 194


LOGO

• Macroeconomic scenario: This information involves inherent risks, market uncertainties and other factors that may generate different results than those expected. • Determining criteria for significant increase or decrease in credit risk: in each period of the consolidated financial statements, we assess whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly from initial recognition by using relative and absolute triggers (indicators) that take into account delays and the probability of default (PD) by product and country. The methodology and assumptions used by Management are detailed in Note 2.3f. The breakdown of the provision for expected credit losses is disclosed in Note 10. Deferred income tax and social contribution Deferred tax assets are recognized only in relation to temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be generated for their use. The expected realization of deferred tax assets is based on projected future taxable profits and other technical studies, as disclosed in Note 24. Fair value of financial instruments not traded in active markets, including derivatives The fair value of financial instruments, including derivatives, not traded in active markets, is calculated through valuation techniques. This calculation is based on assumptions that consider Management’s judgments based on market information and conditions on the balance sheet date. We classify fair value measurements through a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in the measurement process. The breakdown of fair value of financial instruments, including derivatives, as well as of fair value hierarchy is disclosed in Note 28. The team responsible for pricing assets follows the governance defined by a committee and regulatory circulars, conducts critical analyses of market inputs and revises the index longer terms from time to time. At the end of monthly closes, our departments meet for a new round of analyses related to classification within the fair value hierarchy. We believe that all methodologies adopted are appropriate and consistent with those of other market players; however, the adoption of other methodologies or the use of different assumptions to determine fair value may result in different fair value estimates. The methodologies used to measure the fair values of certain financial instruments are described in Note 28. Defined benefit pension plan The current amount of pension plan liabilities is obtained from actuarial calculations that use several assumptions. The discount rate is among the assumptions used for estimating the net cost (income) of these plans. Any changes in these assumptions will affect the carrying amount of pension plan liabilities. We determine the appropriate discount rate at each year end, which is used to calculate the present value of estimated future cash outflows required for settling pension plan liabilities. To determine the appropriate discount rate, we take into account the interest rates of treasury bonds denominated in Brazilian reais, the currency in which benefits will be paid, with maturity terms close to the terms of related liabilities. Key assumptions for pension plan obligations are partially based on current market conditions. Further information is disclosed in Note 26. Provisions, contingencies and legal liabilities We periodically revise our contingencies. These contingencies are evaluated based on Management’s best estimates, factoring in the opinion of legal counsel whenever it is likely that financial resources will be required to settle obligations and amounts may be reasonably estimated. Contingencies classified as probable losses are recognized in the Balance Sheet under Provisions. 195


LOGO

Contingent amounts are measured through models and criteria that allow for its proper measurement despite uncertainties inherent in timing and amounts. Provisions, contingencies and provisions, contingencies and legal liabilities are detailed in Note 29. Technical provisions for insurance and pension plan Technical provisions are liabilities arising from obligations to our policyholders and plan participants. These obligations may be short-term liabilities (property and casualty insurance) or medium- and long-term liabilities (life insurance and pension plans). The determination of the actuarial liability is subject to countless uncertainties inherent in the coverage of insurance and pension contracts, such as assumptions related to persistence, mortality, disability, life expectancy, morbidity, expenses, frequency and severity of claims, conversion of benefits into annuities, redemptions and return on assets. Estimates for these assumptions are based on our historical experience, benchmarks and the actuary’s experience, aimed at the best market practices and ongoing review of the actuarial liability. Adjustments resulting from these continuous improvements, when required, are recognized in the statement of income for the corresponding period. Further information is disclosed in Note 27. Goodwill impairment Goodwill impairment testing involves estimates and significant judgments, including the identification of cash generation units and the allocation of goodwill to such units based on the expectations of whom will benefit from such acquisition. Determining expected cash flows and a risk-adjusted interest rate for each unit requires management to exercise judgment and make estimates. Assets are tested for impairment on a semi-annual basis. In accordance with the Complete Financial Statements (IFRS) Note 23, in 2020 adjustment to goodwill impairment and intangible assets of Itaú Corpbanca were recognized, net of tax effects and interest of non-controlling stockholders, in the amount of R$(1,452). In 2019 and 2018 we did not identify goodwill impairment. 10.6.

At the end of 2020, we had 4,337 branches and customer site branches in Brazil and abroad, 167 less from the end of 2019, when our service network had 4,504 units. This drop in the number of physical branches and the larger number of digital branches are consistent with our clients’ profile, who increasingly demand services via digital channels, aligned with our efficiency-driven activities. We continued to massively invest in technology in 2020 to modernize our platform and develop solutions and services to improve our client experience. We closed 2020 with 196 digital branches in Brazil. During 2020 we hired 3,700 more employees to our technology team. This strengthens our commitment to ramping up technology investment and moving forward in our digital transformation journey. Committed to speeding up the digital transformation process, we hired more professionals to the technology department and from the second quarter of 2020 on we have counted on the collaboration of Zup’s employees. Our staff has thus increased 1.7% on a year-on-year basis. The source of funding for these investments is the Issuer’s own working capital, represented by the stockholders’ equity of the parent company and minority interests in subsidiaries. b) Provided that it has already been disclosed, indicate the acquisition of plant, equipment, patents or other assets that are expected to have a material impact on the issuer’s production capacity.

Commissions and fees and result from insurance operations: the higher-than-expected growth in

The performance of the Board of Directors, its members and Chairman (or Co-chairmen), as well as of the committees related thereto, is evaluated on an annual basis for the performance of management members in compliance with the best corporate governance practices. The Secretary to the Board of Directors is evaluated as well.
The reelection of members of the Board of Directors and committees factors in their good performance in the period and the regular attendance to meetings during the previous term of office, as well as their experience and level of independence.
The evaluation process consists of the following phases: self-evaluation of the members of the Board of Directors, cross-evaluation of the members of the Board of Directors (members evaluate each other), evaluation of the Board of Directors itself by its members, evaluation of the Chairman (or Co-chairmen) of the Board by its members and evaluation of the committees by their members. The evaluation process is structured considering the specific characteristics/responsibilities of the Board of Directors, its members, its Chairman (or Co-chairmen) and each committee, as it seeks to reach a high level of specialization during evaluation.
In the evaluation process, specific questionnaires are handed out to the Board of Directors and each committee, and each member of the Board of Directors and committees is interviewed on an individual basis. The responses are analyzed and compared to the outcomes of previous years, to identify and address any gaps related to the Board of Directors and the committees that may be unveiled in the process.
The Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee provides methodological and procedural support to the evaluation process. This Committee also discusses the results of the evaluation, as well as the composition and succession plan of the Board of Directors.

c) rules for identifying and managing conflicts of interest
According to the Internal Charter of the Board of Directors, its members may not participate in resolutions on matters in which their interests conflict with the Issuer’s. Each member must communicate to the Board of Directors any conflict of interest as soon as the matter is included in the agenda or proposed by the Chairman of the Board and, in any case, before the start of any discussion on each topic. In the first meeting after the act of their election, the elected member must inform the other members of the Board of (a) the main activities they carry out outside the Issuer; (b) participation in the boards of other companies; and (c) business relationships with companies of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, including the provision of services to these companies. The members of the Board of Directors can only participate in up to four boards of directors of companies not owned by a single economic conglomerate. For purposes of this limit, the exercise of this duty in philanthropic entities, clubs or associations will not be taken into consideration. This limit can be exceeded upon the approval of the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee.
If a member of the Board or company controlled or managed by them carries out a transaction with companies of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, the following rules must be followed: (a) the transaction will be performed on an arm’s length basis; (b) if it is not a usual transaction or service provision, appraisal reports must be issued by reputable companies confirming that the transaction was performed on an arm’s length basis; and (c) the transaction must be reported to and conducted by the Related Parties Committee or by the channels usually incumbent in the hierarchy of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, provided that the rules and conditions in the Related Party Transactions Policy are observed.

The nomination process must also consider people with different profiles and characteristics, aimed at complementing duties and providing diversity, such as gender, race and age group.
According to the Nomination Policy, the composition of the Board of Directors should be assessed on an annual basis to ensure the complementary duties of its members. Accordingly, the proposal for reelection of members of the Board of Directors should consider their good performance during the period, experience and regular attendance at the meetings in the previous term of office.
A member who is 70 (seventy) years of age on the date of the election may not be elected.
The Board of Directors should be made up of at least 1/3 of independent members and, in the event the number of members is a fraction number, it will be rounded to (i) the nearest higher integer, when the fraction is equal or higher than five tenths (0.5), and (ii) the nearest lower integer, when the fraction is lower than five tenths (0.5).

Describe the provision in any agreements, including insurance policies, which provide for the payment or reimbursement of expenses incurred by management members arising from indemnity for damage caused to third parties or to the issuer, from penalties imposed by state agents, or from agreements intended to resolve administrative or legal proceedings due to the performance of their functions The Issuer has a civil liability insurance policy in effect for Directors and Officers (D&O), aimed at indemnifying management members of the Issuer and its subsidiaries, under the policy, in the event of attribution of personal, joint or subsidiary liability as a result of any lawsuit, administrative or arbitration proceedings, or due to disregarding of legal identity related to the activities of the Issuer or its subsidiaries, as a result of any written claim or civil lawsuit, administrative proceeding, or regulatory or arbitration procedure related to the noncompliance of laws and rules. Risks excluded from this insurance policy are claims arising from willful misconduct, or gross negligence equivalent to willful misconduct practiced by a management member or any third party to the benefit of that member. The current policy establishes a maximum indemnity limit of one hundred and fifty million U.S. dollars (US$150,000,000.00), subject to specific sub-limits and deductibles for each item covered. The D&O insurance premium paid on January 6, 2021 and maturing in January 6, 2022 amounted to six million, eight hundred thirteen thousand, forty-six US dollars (US$6,813,046), including financial operations tax (IOF). Considering the publication of CVM Guidance Opinion No. 38 of September 25, 2018 regarding the indemnity contracts entered into by publicly-held companies and their management members, the Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting held on April 28, 2020 approved the inclusion of items 5.3 and 5.3.1 in the Bylaws to formalize the possibility of the Issuer’s taking out civil liability insurance or entering into an indemnity contract in favor of its management members, management members of its controlled companies, employees who hold a management position in the Issuer or its controlled companies, as well as those individuals formally nominated to hold management positions in other entities.

companies, as well as with those individuals formally nominated to hold management positions in other companies or entities (collectively “Beneficiaries”), aimed to reimburse expenses due to claims, inquiries, investigations, arbitration, administrative or legal procedures and proceedings, in Brazil or any other jurisdiction aimed at holding the Beneficiary insured liable for the regular performance of their managerial duties, until the later of the following events: (i) the expiration of the period required for final and unappealable decision relating to a Beneficiary’s length of service at the Issuer; or (ii) the expiration of the statute of limitations set forth by law for events that may result in the indemnification obligations for the Issuer. To avoid conflicts of interest, the reimbursement of any and all expenses must be reviewed and approved by the Issuer’s Audit Committee, a body consisting entirely of independent members, in accordance with National Monetary Council regulations, which is competent to assess whether the expenses amount is reimbursable by the Issuer. Accordingly, the Audit Committee will assess whether the Beneficiary’s act falls under any of the exclusionary circumstances provided for in the indemnity contract, namely: (i) the act carried out was not part of the Beneficiary’s duties; (ii) there is proven bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud on the part of the Beneficiary; or (iii) the Beneficiary acts in their own interest or in the interest of third parties, to the detriment of the interest of Itaú Unibanco. In the cases where a Beneficiary is a member of Itaú Unibanco’s Audit Committee, any compensation resulting from proceedings filed against such Beneficiary must be submitted to, reviewed, and approved by the Issuer’s Related Parties Committee, a body consisting exclusively of independent Board members. Additionally, Beneficiaries who may benefit from the resolution or discussion on the payment of expenses will be barred from attending any Audit Committee or Related Parties Committee meetings, as applicable, held to resolve or discuss on such payment. Ultimately, the issuer clarifies that Beneficiaries will not be entitled to the indemnification whenever it may arise from proven illicit acts and when any of the following events demonstrably occur: (i) the act carried out was not part of the Beneficiary’s duties; (ii) there is proven bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud on the part of the Beneficiary; or (iii) the Beneficiary acts in their own interest or in the interest of third parties, to the detriment of the interest of Itaú Unibanco. 261

b) Audit Committee
The Audit Committee has autonomy to establish and contract training activities.
In 2016, the Audit Committee started to define the need for training identified as significant for its performance twice a year. Once it identifies a department in need of training, it contracts training to meet a specific need for the area or its members.
Another training component of the Audit Committee for topics under its responsibility it understands as significant is making benchmark, including abroad, with other organizations or with the best practices identified by consultants.
During 2018, the members of the Audit Committee participated in training sessions on the following topics: Cloud Computing and stage of implementation of the Basel III standards in Brazil. Additionally, the Committee performed a benchmark on risk management in digital environments with financial institutions, technology and consulting companies in the United States of America and on the performance of the Audit Committee, internal audit and second-line areas of defense and with Spanish financial companies with international operations.
In 2019, the Audit Committee promoted specific training on anti-money laundering (AML) with the attendance of its members and guests representing the Internal Audit (Brazil and Latam) and Operating Risk Offices. Talks were given by consultants in Brazil and abroad on (i) Anti money laundering and combating terrorism financing (AML/CFT) and Anti-bribery and corruption (AB&C); and (ii) The Evolving Landscape of AML/CFT Management.
In the years 2018, 2019 and 2020, some of its members, individually, also participated in trainings on accounting, corporate governance, ethics, financial and external audit topics.
c) Relationship among the Audit Committee, the Executive Board, and the Co-chairmen of the Board of Directors
Based on the responsibilities established in its Regulations and the assessment of the main risks of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, the Audit Committee annually defines its meeting schedule, including with the Executive Board. This annual planning is continuously revised by the Audit Committee, which may change its meeting planning at any time.
Throughout the years 2018, 2019 and 2020, the Audit Committee held meetings at least on a monthly basis with the executives in charge of the Internal Audit, Compliance and Operating Risk, and Internal Control

departments, to monitor the outcomes of the work carried out by these departments, as well as bimonthly meetings to monitor the operation of Itaú CorpBanca in Chile and its subsidiaries.
Also, during these years, the Audit Committee held meetings with the following departments: Finance, Corporate Security, Retail Banking, Wholesale Banking, Technology and Operations, Credit Risk, Market and
Liquidity Risk, Legal, External Ombudsman’s Office, and Internal Ombudsman’s Office, and with those responsible for a number of business of Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, including abroad, covering Itaú Unibanco’s units in Latin America and in the Northern hemisphere (the U.S. and the Caribbean, Europe, Asia and Middle East).
At least quarterly, the Audit Committee has held, since 2021, a private meeting with the CEO of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A., and continues to hold, as for several years, a joint meeting with the with the Co-chairmen of the Board of Directors and with the CEO of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A., in which the Audit Committee submits its findings and recommendations and monitors the progress of previously submitted recommendations.
Relationship among the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors and the Fiscal Council
The Audit Committee reports to the Board of Directors of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. On a monthly basis, the Chairman of the Audit Committee submits to the Board of Directors a summary of the most significant topics discussed at the monthly meetings. On a semi-annual basis, the Audit Committee submits its recommendations on the financial statements, and it annually submits the outcome of the evaluation of the external auditor, internal auditor and operating risk department, which is also responsible for the internal controls.
The Audit Committee holds a joint meeting with the members of the Fiscal Council of Itaú Unibanco
Holding SA at least on an annual basis, in which it presents its findings on Itaú Unibanco’s consolidated financial statements as of the year ended in December of each year or other topics of the Fiscal Council interest.
Relationship between the Board of Directors and the Fiscal Council
The Fiscal Council participates in the Board of Directors’ meeting, in which the Issuer’s annual financial statements are examined (therefore, once a year).
Relationship between the Fiscal Council and the Executive Board
The Fiscal Council meets the Executive Board of Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. when the financial statements of the Issuer are presented (therefore, four times a year).
Relationship between the Board of Directors and the Investor Relations Officer
The main relationship channel between the Board of Directors and the Investor Relations Officer is the Disclosure and Trading Committee. This committee meets every quarter on a mandatory basis, in addition to approving Material Facts and Announcements to the Market on a timely basis. The way the Disclosure and Trading Committee is composed reinforces the relationship with the Board of Directors, since it is composed of members of the Board of Directors, the Executive Committee, and the Executive Board.
Noteworthy is that the topics included in the agenda of the Disclosure and Trading Committee’s meetings may be directly related to the Board of Directors or the Statutory Committees that support the Board of Directors, such as:
• Management Report, Form 20-F, Reference Form, and Integrated Annual Report;
• Changing and creating new policies;
• Opinions on the performance of Itaú Unibanco’s securities and the best practices from market agents, including investors, credit rating agencies, and ESG1, corporate governance, analysts, and trade associations;
• Share bonus and share splits;
• Analyzing the trading of the parties adhering to the Securities Trading Policy.
The Itaú Unibanco’s Investor Relations Officer also prepares materials, to the Board of Directors, comparing the financial performance of Itaú Unibanco with that of its main competitors, in addition to calculating the market share of the key products of the Bank and its subsidiaries.

Our compensation strategy adopts clear and transparent processes, aimed at complying with applicable regulation and the best national and international practices, as well as at ensuring consistency with our risk management policy.
Formally approved on February 23, 2021 by the Board of Directors, our compensation policy is aimed at consolidating our compensation principles and practices to attract, reward, retain and motivate management members and employees in the sustainable running of business, subject to proper risk limits and always in line with the stockholders’ interests. The guidelines in the Compensation Policy also apply to companies of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate abroad, adjusted to the specific laws and markets, at the discretion of the personnel department.
In 2017, the Extraordinary General Stockholders’ Meeting approved the formalization and ratification of the Stock Grant Plan (“Stock Grant Plan”) to consolidate general rules in connection with long-term incentive programs involving stock grant to management members and employees of the Issuer and of its direct and indirect controlled companies, as set forth by CVM Instruction No. 567/15. Among the programs mentioned in the Stock Grant Plan, managed by the Compensation Committee and with the Issuer’s management members as target audiences, we highlight: the Variable Stock-Based Compensation (item 5.1.1. of the document), the Fixed Stock-Based Compensation (item 5.1.2 of the document, for members of the Board of Directors only), and the Partners Program (item 5.1.4 of the document), those also included in the information provided in this item 13. The Stock Grant Plan is available on: www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Grant Plan.
In addition, to increase the transparency of our compensation model, as of 2020 we disclose a document that consolidates the main practices and principles underlying the payment of our management members’ compensation. This document, referred to as Compensation Policy, discloses to the public compensation model bases and is available on www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Policies > Management Members’ Compensation Policy.
Additionally, in 2019 the Compensation Committee determined that Executive Committee members should retain the ownership of a minimum number of the Issuer’s shares equivalent to ten times the annual fixed compensation of the CEO and to five times the annual fixed compensation of the other members. Until December 31, 2020, all members complied with the minimum ownership requirement, which must be accomplished up to five years after the members have taken up their functions.
For 2021, the requirement remains the same; that is, new members of the Executive Committee and the new CEO have a period of 5 years to comply with the requirement.
The Issuer also provides a Plan for Granting Stock Option (“Stock Option Plan”) to its management members and employees, as well as to the management members and employees of its controlled companies, allowing the alignment of the interests of management members to those of stockholders, as they share the same risks and gains due to their share appreciation. No option has been granted under our Stock Option Plan since 2012. For further information on Changes in the Plan, please see Note 20 to the financial statements under IFRS.
For further information on the Stock Option Plan, please see sub items 13.4, 13.5, 13.6, 13.7, and 13.8. The Personnel Committee is responsible for making institutional decisions and supervising the Stock Option Plan implementation and operation.
For further information on the responsibilities and functions of the Personnel Committee and the Compensation Committee, please see item 12.1 of the Reference Form available on www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Results and Reports > Regulatory Reports > CVM > Reference Form.

For illustrative purposes, the year to which the compensation refers will be considered regardless of the year in which it was effectively attributed, paid or recognized in the financial statements.
b) compensation composition, indicating:
i - description of the compensation elements and the objectives of each of them
In addition to the annual variable compensation, which seeks to bind members receiving this compensation to the Issuer’s projects and results, the Issuer also establishes a Partners Program intended to align risk management in the short-, medium- and long-terms, as well as align the interests of the associates of the Program with those of our stockholders providing them with benefits proportional to the gains obtained by the Issuer and its stockholders.
Stock-based payment models are in accordance with the principles sought by the Issuer, since they operate as tools to motivate the individual development, commitment, and retention of management members, as stock-based payments are made in the long term.

iii - calculation and adjustment methodology for each of the compensation elements
The fixed compensation of members of the Board of Directors and Board of Officers, as well as the benefit plan granted to Officers, is not impacted by performance indicators.
Board of Directors: Compensation to members of the Board of Directors is in line with market practices and takes into account the members’ résumés, their history in the Issuer and the activities they carry out within the scope of the Board of Directors itself, their acting as Chair of the Board, and other functions they may perform. Accordingly, different compensation may be granted to different members of the Board of Directors, and may even differ in relation to members of the Board of Officers. This practice is consistent with the Issuer’s purpose of attracting outstanding professionals from different fields and distinct expertise and professional experiences.
a) Monthly fixed compensation: it is consistent with market practices and revised frequently enough to attract qualified professionals.
b) Annual fixed compensation in shares: the annual fixed compensation to the members of the Board of Directors is paid in the Issuer’s preferred shares.
c) Annual variable compensation in shares: for variable compensation in shares paid to members of the Board of Directors, the compensation follows the same deferral terms, conditions and calculation of the value of shares presented in item “b) ii” below, which describes the delivery of preferred shares of the annual variable compensation. To ensure its compatibility with value creation, this compensation takes into account Itaú Unibanco Holding’s results and may be adjusted by the Compensation Committee.
Board of Officers:
a) Monthly fixed compensation: it is established in accordance with the position held and based on the internal equality principle, since all officers holding the same position earn the same monthly fixed compensation amount, also providing mobility across our different businesses. Fixed compensation amounts are defined taking into account market competition.
277


LOGO

b) Annual variable compensation(1):
(1) Within the limits established by legislation, those Officers in charge of internal control and risk departments have their compensation determined irrespectively of the performance of the business areas they control and assess so as to avoid any conflicts of interest. However, even though compensation is not impacted by the results of the business areas, it is still subject to impacts arising from the Company’s results.
b) i. Distribution of annual variable compensation(2):
(2) In accordance with Resolution No. 3,921 of the National Monetary Council, a portion of the variable compensation must be deferred.
278


LOGO

b) ii. Delivery of preferred shares related to the annual variable compensation of the Board of Officers:
Fiscal Council: the members of the Fiscal Council are paid only a monthly fixed compensation amount and are not eligible for the benefit plan. In accordance with applicable legislation, compensation to each acting member of the Fiscal Council cannot be lower than 10% of the fixed compensation assigned to each officer (i.e., not including benefits, representation allowances and profit sharing).
Audit Committee: the members of the Audit Committee are paid only a monthly fixed compensation amount and are not eligible for the benefit plan. For those members of the Audit Committee who are also part of the Board of Directors, the compensation policy of the Board of Directors is applied.
iv - reasons that justify the composition of compensation
In addition to the annual variable compensation, which seeks to bind members receiving this compensation to the Issuer’s projects and results, the Issuer also establishes a Partners Program intended to align risk management in the short-, medium- and long-terms, as well as align the interests of the associates of the Program with those of our stockholders providing them with benefits proportional to the gains obtained by the Issuer and its stockholders.
Stock-based payment models are in accordance with the principles sought by the Issuer, since they operate as tools to motivate the individual development and commitment and retention of management members, as stock-based payments are made in the long term.
v – number of members who are not compensated
There are no members who are not compensated.
279


LOGO

c) the main performance indicators that are taken into consideration in determining each compensation element:
i) Board of Directors
The fixed compensation of the Board of Directors is not impacted by performance indicators.
For payment of variable stock-based compensation to members of the Board of Directors, to ensure its compatibility with long-term value creation, this compensation takes into account Itaú Unibanco Holding’s results, and may be adjusted by the Compensation Committee.
ii) Officers
The fixed compensation of officers is not impacted by performance indicators. On the other hand, variable compensation is subject to a performance evaluation carried out by the supervisor based on the priorities of the year discussed together with the officer being evaluated.
d) how compensation is structured to reflect the evolution of performance indicators:
A significant portion of the total amount paid to officers is in the form of variable compensation, which is directly influenced by performance indicators. Therefore, the better the indicators, the higher the compensation and vice versa.
280


LOGO

e) how the compensation policy or practice is aligned with the issuer’s short-, medium- and long-term interests:
The management members’ compensation must be compatible with the risk management policy and formulated so as to not encourage behaviors that increase risk exposure to above the levels that are considered prudent in the short-, medium- and long-term strategies adopted by the institution.
The annual variable compensation takes into account three factors: the management member’s performance; results of the business area; and/or the Issuer’s results, and is paid as follows: 30% in cash on demand and 70% in the Issuer’s preferred shares or stock-based instruments, deferred for payment within three years, in the proportion of 1/3 of the amount due per year.
Additionally, the Issuer has an institutional program referred to as Partners Program through which management members and employees with a history of outstanding contribution and differentiated performance are entitled to use part or their total annual variable compensation to purchase the Issuer’s preferred shares (“Own Shares”). If they hold the ownership of these Own Shares, free of any liens or encumbrances and of other suspension conditions set forth in the Program Regulation for three- and five-year terms as from the initial investment, the return on investment will be through the receipt of the Issuer’s preferred shares (“Partners Shares”) also for three- and five-year terms. These Partners Shares will subsequently remain unavailable for 5 and 8-year terms as from the initial investment.
Therefore, variable compensation is paid in at least three and at the most five years, and during this period it is subject to a possible reduction due to significant decreases in realized recurring net income of the Issuer or to a negative result of the applicable business area, except when the reduction or negative result arises from extraordinary, unpredictable events external to the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, which also affect other financial institutions and are not driven by actions or omissions of management members. The Compensation Committee may decide to apply a malus even in these cases. On the other hand, in the Partners Program, the shares received in the aforementioned periods, in addition to remaining subject to a decrease in recurring net income, are also subject to the risk of price variations in the Issuer’s preferred shares for up to eight years. This structure reflects the intention of aligning risk management over time, in addition to providing benefits to management members based on performance in the proportion as it benefits the Issuer and its stockholders.
f) the existence of compensation supported by direct or indirect subsidiaries, controlled companies or parent companies:
The compensation of many members of the Board of Officers is supported by controlled companies (please see sub item 13.15), and the amounts indicated in this item 13 already include the total compensation paid by the Issuer and its controlled companies.
g) the existence of any compensation or benefit related to the occurrence of a certain corporate event, such as the disposal of the Issuer’s shareholding control:
There is no compensation or benefit related to the occurrence of a corporate event, even though it is possible at the Issuer’s discretion.
h) the practices and procedures adopted by the board of directors to determine the individual compensation of the board of directors and board of officers, indicating:
i. the issuer’s bodies and committees that take part in the decision-making process, identifying how they do so
We have a statutory Compensation Committee that reports to the Board of Directors, and its functions include:
281


LOGO

Another body involved in the governance of management compensation is the Personnel Committee, which also reports to the Board of Directors and its functions include:
i.i in relation to the Stock Option Plan: a. being responsible for institutional decisions and overseeing their implementation and operation; and b. approving grants of Simple Options.
i.ii. in relation to the Partners Program: being responsible for the rules set out for adding and removing beneficiaries.
ii. the criteria and methodology used to determine individual compensation, indicating whether studies are used to check market practices and, if so, the comparison criteria and scope of these studies
We adopt compensation and benefit strategies that vary according to the area of activity and market parameters. We periodically check these parameters by:
• commissioning salary surveys conducted by specialized consultants;
• participating in surveys conducted by other banks; and
• participating in specialized forums on compensation and benefits.
iii. how often and how the board of directors assesses the adequacy of the issuer’s compensation policy
The Board of Directors assesses the adequacy of the Compensation Policy at least annually. The Compensation Committee assesses and proposes improvements in the compensation policy, if applicable. After this detailed analysis by the Compensation Committee, the policy is submitted to the Board of Directors for appreciation.

The 2018 Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting approved an aggregate compensation amount of R$370 million to the members of the management bodies, regardless of the year in which these amounts are effectively attributed or paid. The Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting approved the monthly individual compensation of R$15,000 to effective members and of R$6,000 to alternate members of the Fiscal Council. In addition to the amounts approved by the Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting, members of the management bodies will receive statutory profit sharing, according to paragraph 1, Article 152, of the Brazilian Corporate Law, limited to the annual compensation of management members approved at the Annual General Stockholders’ Meeting or to 10% of the Issuer’s income, whichever is lower. The profit-sharing amounts are included in the table above, which reflects the breakdown of the total amounts the Issuer has agreed to deliver to the management members for 2018, regardless of the year in which the amounts were effectively attributed or paid.
Options grant amounts are not included in the table above, since no options were granted for that year under the Plan. For further information on the option grant of the Stock Option Plan, please see sub items 13.4, 13.5, 13.6, 13.7 and 13.9.
Notes:
1. As mentioned in item 13.1 and shown in the table above, the annual variable compensation model is recorded in “Profit sharing” (paid in cash) and “Stock-based compensation” (paid in shares). Therefore, the bonus item is zero.
2. The portions in shares or stock-based instruments were shown in the “Stock-based compensation” line, and were not stated under “Variable compensation”. For illustrative purposes, this item will take into consideration the year to which the compensation refers, regardless of the year in which it was effectively attributed, paid or recognized in the financial statements.

13.4. With respect to the stock-based compensation plan for the Board of Directors and Board of Statutory Officers in effect in the last year and determined for the current year, please describe:
a) General terms and conditions
Clarifications – how to disclose information
For illustrative purposes, in this item we provide information about all stock-based compensation models, as follows: (1) shares or stock-based instruments delivered under the Compensation Policy; (2) shares or stock-based instruments delivered under the Partners Program; and (3) options granted under the Plan for Granting Stock Option (“Stock Option Plan”), as described below:
(1) Compensation Policy – stock-based compensation
Annual fixed compensation in shares:
This compensation is paid to the members of the Board of Directors, provided they have fully completed their terms of office. The purpose is to reward the contribution made by each member to the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate. The annual fixed compensation takes into account the history and résumé of members, in addition to market conditions and other factors that may be agreed between the member of the Board of Directors and Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate
To calculate the value of the shares used to make up the compensation payable in shares or stock-based instruments, we use the average closing price of Itaú Unibanco Holding’s preferred shares on B3 – Bolsa, Brasil, Balcăo (“B3”) in the thirty (30) days prior to calculation, which will be carried out in the seventh (7th) business day prior to granting the shares or paying the compensation.
The number of shares is calculated and granted every three years, and these shares are delivered proportionally to the number of terms of office completed in the period.
Annual variable compensation in shares:

LOGO

(2) Partners Program
Aimed at aligning the interests of our officers and employees to those of our stockholders, this program provides participants with the opportunity to invest in our preferred shares (ITUB4), sharing short-, medium- and long-term risks.
This program is aimed at officers and employees in view of their history of contribution, relevant work and also outstanding performance. It has two types of appointments: partners and associates. Main differences are as follows:
290


LOGO

(3) Stock Option Plan
We have a Stock Option Plan through which our officers and employees with outstanding performance are entitled to receive stock options. These options enable them to share the risk of price fluctuations of our preferred shares (ITUB4) with other stockholders and intend to integrate participants of this program into the conglomerate’s development process in the medium- and long-terms.
Our Personnel Committee manages the Stock Option Plan, including matters such as strike prices, grace periods and terms of options, in accordance with the rules set forth therein.
Options may only be granted to participants if earnings are in sufficient amounts to be distributed as mandatory dividends.    
No option has been granted under our Stock Option Plan since 2012. For further information on Changes in the Plan, please see Note 20 to the financial statements under IFRS.
For further information on the Stock Option Plan, please see the Investor Relations website: www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Grant Plan.
b) Main objectives of the plan
Stock-based compensation models have the primary purpose of aligning management members’ interests with those of the Issuer’s stockholders, as they share the same risks and earnings provided by their share appreciation.
c) How the plan contributes to these objectives
Stock-based payment models are intended to motivate management members to contribute to the Issuer’s good performance and share appreciation, as they may actively take part in the results of this appreciation. Accordingly, the institution achieves the objective of the stock-based payment models by engaging management members in the organization’s long-term strategies. Management members, in turn, take part in the appreciation of shares in the Issuer’s capital stock.
d) How the plan is inserted in the Issuer’s compensation policy
Stock-based payment models are in conformity with the principles pursued by the Issuer, since they (i) tie up management members to the Issuer’s projects and results in the long-term, (ii) work as tools that motivate individual development and commitment, and (iii) retain management members, as stock-based payments are made in the long term.
e) How the plan is aligned with the short-, medium- and long-term interests of management members and the issuer
Stock-based payment models are aligned with the interests of the Issuer and management members, since that, by enabling management members to become stockholders of the Issuer, these are encouraged to act from the perspective of being the “owners“ of the business, therefore aligning their interests with those of the stockholders. Additionally, they motivate management members to remain at the Issuer, since general rule dictates that a member leaving the company will lose their rights to stock-based payments (please see sub item “n“ of item 13.4).
f) Maximum number of shares covered by the plan
In order to limit the maximum dilution to which stockholders may be subject: the sum of (i) the shares to be used as compensation, in accordance with Resolution No. 3,921 of the National Monetary Council, including those related to the Partners Program and other stock-based compensation programs of the Issuer and its controlled companies; and (ii) the options to be granted each year may not exceed the limit of 0.5% of all Issuer’s shares that stockholders hold at the balance sheet date of the same year.
In the event that the number of shares delivered and options granted, in any given year, is below the limit of 0.5% of the total shares as mentioned in the paragraph above, the resulting difference may be added for compensation or option granting purposes in any of the following seven (7) fiscal years.
g) Maximum number of options to be granted
Idem to item f) above.
291


LOGO

h) Conditions for acquisition of shares
Stock-based compensation: shares are acquired in the long-term, since out of the total annual variable compensation, 30% is paid in cash on demand and 70% is paid with the delivery of shares, deferred for payment within three years, in the proportion of 1/3 of the amount due per year.
Partners Program: If they hold the ownership of these Own Shares, free of any liens or encumbrances and of other suspension conditions set forth in the Program Regulation for three- and five-year terms as from the initial investment, the return on investment will be through the receipt of the Partners Shares also for three- and five-year terms.
Stock Option Plan: shares are purchased as a result of exercising an option granted under the Stock-Option Plan, provided that the grace period has elapsed (please see sub item “j” below), upon payment of the strike price (please see sub item “i” below). Additionally, options may be terminated under certain circumstances, such as termination of relationship (statutory or contractual) between the Beneficiary and the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate companies before the grace period (please see sub item “n” below).
i) Criteria for setting up the purchase or strike price
Stock-based compensation: to calculate the reference price of the Issuer’s preferred shares used to compose the stock-based compensation, the average closing price of shares on B3 in the (thirty) 30 days prior to calculation will be used. Such average price should be calculated on the seventh (7th) business day prior to the stock grant date.
Partners Program: to calculate the reference price of the Issuer’s preferred shares used to compose the stock-based compensation, the average closing price of shares on B3 in the (thirty) 30 days prior to calculation will be used. Such average price should be calculated on the seventh (7th) business day prior to the stock grant date.
Stock Option Plan: purchase and strike prices are set up by the Personnel Committee upon option grant and will be determined in the following manner:
The option strike price is set up based on the average price of the Issuer’s preferred shares at the trading sessions of B3 in the last three months of the year prior to the grant date. The prices thus set up will be adjusted up to the last business day of the month prior to the exercise of the option based on the IGPM inflation index or, in its absence, on an index designated by the Personnel Committee, and they must be paid within a term equal to that in force for settling operations on B3.
j) Criteria for defining the exercise period
Stock-based compensation: not applicable, since there is no exercising of options but rather a delivery of shares.
Partners Program: not applicable, since there is no exercising of options but rather a delivery of shares.
Stock Option Plan: options may only be exercised after the grace period and out of the lock-up periods established by the Personnel Committee. The grace period of each series will be established by the Committee upon issue and may last from one to seven years as from the year of its issuance. As a rule, the grace period determined by the Committee is of five (5) years.
k) Settlement method
Stock-based compensation: settlement occurs through the delivery of shares after deferral periods.
Partners Program: settlement occurs through the delivery of Partners Shares after the deferral periods provided for in the Program.
Stock Option Plan: the Beneficiary will pay the Issuer the strike price in cash, subject to the rules and conditions established by the Personnel Committee.
292


LOGO

l) Restrictions on the transfer of shares
Stock-based compensation: after receiving the shares within one, two or three years, there will be no restrictions to the share transfer. If the executive chooses to invest these shares in the Partners Program as Own Shares, these shares will become unavailable for three and five years from the investment date.
Partners Program: after receiving the Partners Shares within three and five years from the initial investment, such shares will become unavailable for five and eight years as from the initial investment date.
Stock Option Plan: the availability of shares subscribed by Beneficiaries by exercising the option may be subject to additional restrictions, according to resolutions to be adopted by the Personnel Committee upon grant. Therefore, the percentage of shares that must remain unavailable, as well as the period of this unavailability, will be defined by said Committee. As a rule, the period of this unavailability defined by the Committee is two (2) years after the option is exercised.
m) Criteria and events that, when verified, will cause the suspension, change or termination of the plan
Stock-based compensation: deferred shares may not be delivered in the event of a significant decrease in realized recurring net income of the Issuer or to a negative result of the applicable business area, except when the reduction or negative result arises from extraordinary, unpredictable events external to the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, which also affect other financial institutions and are not driven by actions or omissions of management members. The Compensation Committee may decide to apply a malus even in these cases. Additionally, the compensation model may be amended upon the approval of the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors.
Partners Program: Partners Shares still to be received may not be delivered in the event of a significant decrease in realized recurring net income of the Issuer or to a negative result of the applicable business area, except when the reduction or negative result arises from extraordinary, unpredictable events external to the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, which also affect other financial institutions and are not driven by actions or omissions of management members. The Compensation Committee may decide to apply a malus even in these cases. Additionally, the Partners Program may be amended upon the approval of the Compensation Committee or the Personnel Committee.
Stock Option Plan: the Personnel Committee may suspend the exercise of options under justifiable circumstances, such as significant market fluctuations or legal or regulatory restrictions. Additionally, the Stock-Option Plan may only be amended or terminated if proposed by the Personnel Committee to the Board of Directors and subsequently approved at an Extraordinary General Stockholders’ Meeting.
n) Effects of the management member’s leave from the Issuer’s bodies on their rights provided for in the stock-based compensation plan
Stock-based compensation: the general rule when a member leaves is the termination of shares granted but not yet delivered. However, subject to the criteria established in the Compensation Policy, the Personnel Committee may determine the non-termination of these shares.
Partners Program: the general rule when a member leaves is the termination of Partners Shares granted but not yet delivered. However, subject to the criteria established in the internal charter, the Personnel Committee may determine the non-termination of these shares.
Stock Option Plan: the general rule is that any Beneficiaries managing the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate who resign or are dismissed from position will have their options expired automatically. Management members’ stock options will expire on the date such members cease to exercise their functions on a permanent basis, that is, in the event of a garden leave agreement (the period of leave prior to the formal end of the employment or statutory relationship), these options will expire when said agreement becomes effective. However, the aforementioned automatic expiry may not occur if, for example, this member is dismissed simultaneously to their election as a management member of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate or if they take up another statutory position in the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate.
Additionally, subject to criteria established in internal charter, the Personnel Committee may choose not to have these options expire.

13.8. Give a brief description of the information necessary for understanding the data disclosed in items 13.5 to 13.7, as well as an explanation of the pricing model for share and option value, indicating, at least: a) pricing model Options: the Issuer adopts the Binomial model for option pricing. This model assumes that there are two possible paths for the performance of asset prices – upward or downward. A tree with price paths is built in order to determine the share value on a future date, based on the defined volatility and time interval between the tree steps from pricing to maturity. The pricing process of this model is carried out by adopting the “Backward Induction method”, from the knots of the maturity to the starting point. Stock-based compensation: the fair value of the shares for the variable stock-based compensation is the quoted market price of the Issuer’s preferred shares on the grant date. Partners Program: the fair value of the Issuer’s shares received is the quoted market price of the Issuer’s preferred shares on the grant date discounted from the expected dividends. b) data and assumptions used in the pricing model, including the weighted average price of shares, exercise price, expected volatility, term of the option, dividends expected and risk-free interest rate Options: the Binomial pricing model used in the options takes into consideration the price assumptions relating to the underlying asset, strike price, volatility, dividend return rate, risk-free rate, grace period and term of the option. The assumptions used are described as follows: Price of the underlying asset: the price of the Issuer´s preferred shares used for calculation is the closing price on B3 on the calculation base date; Strike price: the strike price previously defined on the option issue, adjusted by the IGP-M variation, is adopted as the option strike price; Expected volatility: calculated based on the standard deviation from the last 84 historical monthly returns of closing prices of the Issuer’s preferred shares, released by B3, adjusted by the IGP-M variation; Dividend rate: is the average annual return rate in the last three years of Paid Dividends, plus the Interest on Capital of the Issuer’s preferred share; Risk-Free Interest Rate: the risk-free rate used is the IGP-M coupon rate, up to the option expiration date; Option expiration date: it will be established by the Personnel Committee upon option grant, and these options will automatically expire at the end of this term. The term of each stock option series will begin on the issue date and expire at the end of a period that may vary between the minimum of five years and the maximum of ten years; and Option grace period: the grace period of each stock option series will be established by the Personnel Committee on the issue date, and this period may vary between one and seven years as from the issue date. Stock-based compensation: not applicable, since, unlike other models, the number of shares is fixed based on the compensation amount defined. After it is defined, the amount is converted into a number of shares, taking into account their market value. Partners Program: the market price of the Issuer’s preferred shares on the grant date is discounted from the average annual return rate for the past three years of dividends and interest on capital. c) Method used and assumptions made to absorb the expected early exercise effects Options: the option pricing uses the Binomial tree and takes into account the options grace period. The grace period of each series will be established by the Personnel Committee upon issue, which may vary from one to seven years as from the grant date. As a rule, the grace period determined by the Committee is of five (5) years. After the end of the grace period, the option can be exercised at any time until the option expiration date. 297


LOGO

Stock-based compensation: not applicable. Partners Program: not applicable. d) Method to determine expected volatility Options: expected volatility: calculated based on the standard deviation from the last 84 historical monthly returns of closing prices of the Issuer’s preferred share, adjusted by the IGP-M variation. Stock-based compensation: not applicable. Partners Program: not applicable. e) If any other characteristic of the options was included in its fair value measurement Options: the historical series is adjusted for splits, bonuses and reverse splits, among others. Stock-based compensation: not applicable. Partners Program: not applicable. 298

c) Turnover rate
The turnover rate is the ratio of employees hired to employees terminated (either voluntarily or involuntarily) in a given period. We monitor this rate on a monthly basis and submit it to the Executive Committee (the criteria used do not include employees outside Brazil, apprentices, expatriates, disability retirees, officers and interns).

Notes: voluntary severance program refers to when the initiative comes from the employee, and involuntary termination is when the initiative comes from the employer. (1) Calculation based on total voluntary terminations divided by the average of active employees, whose calculation is the sum of active employees at the beginning and end of the period divided by two. To total active employees at the end of the period the calculation applies: employees at the beginning of the period, plus hires, fewer voluntary dismissals of employees; (2) Calculation based on total involuntary terminations divided by the average of active employees, whose calculation is the sum of active employees at the beginning and end of the divided period for two. For the total number of active employees at the end of the period, the calculation applies: employees at the beginning of the period more hires less involuntary terminations of employees. 304

14.2. Comment on any relevant change occurred with respect to the figures disclosed in item 14.1 above In 2020, 56,444 of our employees were qualified for home working, and we also provided support to the day-to-day of our employees at physical branches by providing protection and safety equipment and procedures. Committed to speeding up our digital transformation process, we hired employees for the technology area. At the digitalization and efficiency front, we increased our digital client base, reaching the milestone of 24.2 million digital clients in December 2020, as we keep on ramping up our technology investments. Over 2020 we hired over 3,700 employees to our IT team and in 2021 we will double the figures recorded in 2018. 14.3. Describe the issuer’s employee compensation policies, stating: a) Salary and variable compensation policy We adopt market parameters and benefit and compensation strategies that vary according to the business area of each employee. These parameters are periodically revised and analyzed through the commissioning of salary surveys from independent specialized consultancies, participation in surveys carried out by other banks, and participation in specialized compensation forums. The fixed compensation set forth in our strategy considers the complexity of duties of each level and the individual performance regarding these duties. Changes to employees’ fixed compensation vary according to the Promotion and Merit Policy, which takes into account employees’ seniority and their individual performance while carrying out duties. Variable compensation, in turn, acknowledges the level of dedication, results achieved and its short, medium and long-term sustainability. Furthermore, employees are entitled to salary adjustments and profit sharing, established in collective bargaining agreements applicable to respective jurisdictions. b) Benefit policy We provide several benefits established in applicable collective bargaining agreements entered into with labor unions that represent our employees’ professional categories. Conditions to enjoy these benefits are established in the respective collective bargaining agreements (food allowance, day care/baby sitter, transportation, etc.). Additional benefits also apply, such as: (i) medical and dental care plans, (ii) private pension plans, (iii) group life insurance, (iv) check-up; (v) parking. Granting of these benefits may vary in accordance with the employee’s category the market or regulatory considerations about jurisdictions specifically applicable to a certain employee. Additionally, the following benefits are offered to all employees:—special benefits in banking products and services; - Itaú Unibanco Club; - discounts in accredited fitness centers; - Gympass (large nationwide chain of fitness centers);—discounts and facilities in payment in drugstores;—psychosocial services; - advantages through product scores/discounts in Market Place for Bank collaborators. c) Characteristics of the stock-based profit sharing plans to employees, identifying: i. groups of beneficiaries ii. exercise conditions iii. strike prices iv. exercise terms v. number of shares committed by the plan 305

We have a stock-based profit-sharing program for a specific target audience, acknowledging those who stood out during the relevant year: We also have an institutional program referred to as Partners Program, whose details are included herein in item 13.4 a) (2). 306

14.4. Describe the relations between the issuer and unions, indicating whether there were stoppage and strikes in the past three years Itaú Unibanco has a permanent channel for dialog throughout the year with the labor unions representing the employees in their various professional categories. Meetings between the company and the labor unions are constantly held to discuss themes for furthering a good organizational climate and to discuss matters relating to the organization and workplace safety. We meet to discuss specific collective bargaining agreements, such as Profits or Results Sharing, Time Clock Registration and Working Day Compensation (work-hour tracking) schemes, among others. From the point of view of labor relations, we recognize the labor unions as legitimate representatives of our employees. We guarantee our employees’ rights to freedom of association as well as the absolute freedom for employees to take part in labor union activities, always recognizing the rights and prerogatives of those elected to executive positions in the unions pursuant to the current Brazilian legislation and the collective agreements for each professional category to which we are a party. The company has 829 active employees with roles in the various boards of directories of the representative labor unions. As set forth in the collective labor agreement for bank employees, 470 work full time for these union entities. In addition, we allow the unions to hold membership campaigns and, when requested, to hold meetings between the union entities, our managers and employees, with a view to seeking negotiated solutions in a respectful manner and in line with ethical principles. We note that all activities within the scope of relations with union entities are conducted with a focus on innovation and negotiated solutions with a view to minimizing possible differences and conflicts involving our employees. At Itaú Unibanco, all employees are covered by collective labor agreements which guarantee rights, not only those granted under the labor legislation but also other benefits which may be granted to our employees on a one-off basis in accordance with our internal human resources policies. Collective labor agreement rules, as well as other alterations and adjustments to internal norms that affect the routine of employees or modify their rights are widely disclosed by the company’s various means of communication. Among such means are e-mail, videos, electronic media, advertising totems, our internal magazine and our corporative portal (where human resources policies are detailed in our personnel regulations). In addition, employees have a call center at their disposal, to which they may have recourse in the event of questions. We are a party to an annual round table consisting of labor unions representing bank, insurance and finance employees professional associations, and employer associations for the collective drafting of agreements that define employee rights and benefits. In the last years, the banking sector has not faced strikes or significant interruptions in its operations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we believe that the way to solve labor disputes is through direct negotiation, avoiding litigating issues which can be resolved through an exhaustive process of dialog and transparency in relations with labor union entities. 14.5.

15.7. Describe the main corporate operations carried out in the group that have a significant effect for the issuer, such as takeovers, mergers, spin-offs, mergers of shares, sales and acquisitions of ownership interest, acquisitions and disposals of important assets, indicating when the issuer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is involved: a) event; b) main business conditions; c) companies involved; d) effects arising from the transaction on the corporate structure, particularly on the ownership interest of the issuer’s parent company, stockholders with more than 5% of the capital, and management members; e) corporate structure before and after the transaction; f) mechanisms adopted to ensure equitable treatment among stockholders For purposes of this item, we adopted as materiality criterion operations involving amounts higher than R$772.6 million, which accounts for 0.5% of Itaú Unibanco Holding’s stockholders’ equity under IFRS (R$154,525 million on December 31, 2020). 2020 XP Inc. Event Acquisition of shareholding in XP Inc., a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and listed on Nasdaq. XP Inc. owns 100% of XP Investimentos S.A. (“XP Investimentos”), which, in turn, consolidates all investments of XP Group (“XP Group”), including XP Investmentos Corretora de Câmbio, Títulos e Valores Mobiliários S.A. (“XP Corretora”). Main business conditions On May 11, 2017, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with XP Controle Participações S.A., G.A. Brasil IV Fundo de Investimento em Participações, and Dyna III Fundo de Investimento em Participações, among others, as sellers, to acquire 49.9% of total capital stock (corresponding to 30.06% of common shares) of XP Investimentos S.A., a holding company that consolidates all the investments of the XP group, including XP Investimentos Corretora de Câmbio, Títulos e Valores Mobiliários S.A. In the first tranche (“First Tranche”), we contributed to a capital increase of R$600 million and acquired shares issued by XP Investimentos S.A. held by Sellers for R$5.7 billion, with such amounts subject to contractual adjustments. The value attributed to 100% of total capital stock of XP Investimentos S.A. (before the first tranche) was approximately R$12 billion. In August 2018, we closed the First Tranche and Itaú Unibanco S.A., together with some of the Sellers, entered into a shareholder agreement which contains, among others, provisions with respect to Itaú Unibanco S.A.’s rights as a minority shareholder of XP Investimentos S.A., including its right to appoint two out of the seven members of the Board of Directors of XP Investimentos S.A. On November 29, 2019, there was a corporate restructuring of XP Investimentos S.A., where the stockholders of XP Investimentos S.A., including Itaú Unibanco, exchanged all their shares in XP Investimentos S.A., a company incorporated in Brazil, for Class A common shares and Class B common shares in XP Inc., a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, remaining with the percentages in the capital stock. Each Class A common share entitles its holder to one vote and each Class B common share entitles its holder to ten votes in all stockholders’ resolutions of XP Inc. As a result of the contribution mentioned above, XP Inc. issued to Itaú Unibanco 792,861,320 Class A common shares and 223,595,962 Class B 323


LOGO

common shares, which represent 49.9% of total capital of XP Inc. and 30.06% of its voting capital. XP Inc. became the sole shareholder of XP Investimentos S.A., owning 100% of its total and voting capital. Subsequently, on November 30, 2019, XP Inc. carried out a reverse stock split of one share for each four shares and, as a result, the number of shares held by Itaú Unibanco was adjusted to 198,215,329 Class A common shares and 55,898,991 Class B common shares. In December 2019, XP Inc., a company in which we held 49.9% of capital stock, completed its initial primary offer (IPO) and listing on Nasdaq. We did not sell XP Inc. shares in such offer and immediately after the completion of the IPO, we now hold 46.05% of XP Inc.’s capital stock. Additionally, on November 29, 2019, the stockholders of XP Inc. entered into a shareholder agreement substantially similar to then existing shareholder agreement of XP Investimentos S.A. XP Inc. has a board of directors composed of 13 members, of which XP Controle A Participações S.A. appointed 7 members, we appointed 2 members, the General Atlantic (XP) Bermuda, LP (successor to GA Brasil IV Fundo de lnvestimento em Participações) appointed 1 member, and the 3 remaining members are independent directors. These independent directors are also members of the audit committee of XP lnc., which is composed of 3 members appointed as follows: we appointed 2 members, and XP Controle Participações SA appointed one member of the audit committee. On November 26, 2020, we announced that our Board of Directors had approved the partial spin-off of the investment in XP lnc. to be transferred to a new company (XPart S.A.). In December 2020, XP Inc. carried out a public stock offer (follow-on) on Nasdaq, through which we sold approximately 4.51% of capital in XP Inc. In that same offer, XP Inc. issued new shares, which resulted in the dilution of our interest to 41% of its capital stock. The Extraordinary General Stockholders’ Meeting (ESM) held on January 31, 2021 resolved on the corporate restructuring aimed at segregating the business line related to the interest in XP lnc’s capital to a new company to be named XPart S.A., which will be constituted by a part of the investment currently owned by us at XP Inc. and cash worth R$10 million. The purpose of the segregation of the business line represented by our investment in XP Inc. into a new company (XPart SA) is that our stockholders will be entitled to equity interest in XPart SA in the same number and proportion of the shares they hold in Itaú Unibanco, as per the Material Fact disclosed on December 31, 2020. Therefore, the main benefit of the Transaction is value creation for our stockholders. The completion of this transaction was subject to regulatory approval to be obtained by our controlling shareholders. On May 28, 2021, the favorable approval of the Federal Reserve Board (“FED”) was obtained, effective on May 31, 2021, the date from which the legal and accounting segregation of Itaú Unibanco Holding and XPart materialized. Consequently, XP Inc’s capital held by XPart S.A. is now 40.52%, totaling R$9,371, as of December 31, 2020. XPart will have its incorporation documents duly filed with the Central Bank of Brazil and other proper registration bodies after the approval of the operation by the Central Bank of Brazil. The shares issued by Itaú Unibanco, as well as the American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) will continue to be traded including the right to receive securities issued by XPart until the cut-off date (date of ex-right), which will be set and informed to the market as soon as possible. XP Inc. has expressed its interest in merging XPart and, accordingly, XP Inc. and Itaúsa announced to the market on May 28, 2021, that they have reached a final understanding regarding the merger. If the merger of XPart into XP Inc. is carried out, which will be resolved at the General Stockholders’ Meetings of these companies at a date to be defined, which are expected by XP Inc. and Itaúsa to be held in the middle of the second half of 2021, the cut-off date mentioned above is planned to be after the closing of the trading session at the date of these General Stockholders’ Meetings. As disclosed by Itaúsa and XP Inc., should the said merger be approved by the stockholders of XP Inc. and XPart at the General Stockholders’ Meetings of these companies, the stockholders of Itaú Unibanco 324


LOGO

Holding, who until the cut-off date will be entitled to receive securities issued by XPart, will receive: (a) as for the Company’s controlling stockholders, IUPAR – Itaú Unibanco Participações S.A. and Itaúsa, and the holders of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Class A shares issued by XP Inc., and (b) as for the remaining stockholders, Level I sponsored Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs), replacing the securities they would receive from XPart, which will not be listed on a stock exchange (because it will be dissolved after its merger into XP). Note that, in case XPart is not merged or is not listed on a stock exchange within a period of 120 days as from the date of approval from the Central Bank of Brazil above mentioned, stockholders will be entitled to withdraw from XPart, in accordance with paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article 223 of Law No. 6,404/76. Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. will keep its stockholders and the market informed of the progress and developments of this operation, including, as the case may be, details on the start of the period to exercise the right to reimbursement of shares by the stockholders dissenting from the merger resolved upon at the XPart’s General Stockholders’ Meeting, in accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 137 of Law 6,404/76. Lastly, conditioned on approval from the Central Bank of Brazil, pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement signed in 2017, we will purchase an additional stake of approximately 11.38% of XP Inc.’s capital stock, considering the number of shares in XP Inc. as of December 31, 2020. The management and conduct of business of all companies of the XP group, including XP Inc., will remain independent, segregated and autonomous, preserving the same principles and values in force before the First Tranche.

If any of the following events occur (each one, an “Event of Default”) and such occurrence survives time, the Trustee of the holders of the Notes, if so instructed by at least one-third (1/3) of the holders – computed at the face value of the Notes – or if so instructed by a special resolution of the holders of the Notes, will inform the Issuer of the accelerated maturity of the Notes, and the payment for which will become immediately enforceable, subject to the terms governing the calculation of the Early Redemption Amount.

ITEM 20. SECURITIES TRADING POLICY    
20.1. Indicate whether the issuer adopted a trading policy for the securities issued by it by direct or indirect controlling stockholders, officers, members of the board of directors, the fiscal council or of any body with technical or advisory functions, created by a statutory provision, informing:
We are subject to the rules established by the Brazilian Corporate Law and CVM Instruction No. 358/02, regarding the trading of securities issued by us. Additionally, although it has never been compulsory, since 2002 we have adopted a policy in this respect, which resulted in even more restrictive rules than those required by the regulatory body itself (CVM). We also rely on an internal compliance team whose activities include monitoring the transactions carried out by those parties adhering to the policy on the securities issued by us.
Moreover, we have a Disclosure and Trading Committee (as a result of merging in 2006 the Disclosure Committee and the Trading Committee, both created in 2002), whose main duty is managing the Trading Policy for Securities Issued by Itaú Unibanco Holding (“Trading Policy”) and the Disclosure Policy for Material Acts or Facts (“Disclosure Policy”).
In addition to the regulation of the Trading Policy and internal structure, some departments, because they have access to client information, have even more specific and stricter policies to avoid the undue use of insider information for personal advantage.
a) policy approval body and date of approval
It is incumbent upon the Board of Directors to resolve on changes in the policy, subject to recommendations made by the Disclosure and Trading Committee. The current Trading Policy was created in 2002 and its provisions are constantly reviewed to ensure consistency with the best corporate governance practices. The Policy was last revised on July 30, 2020.
b) bound persons
For the purpose of the Trading Policy, bound persons are: i. direct or indirect controlling stockholders, either by exclusive or shared control, and officers, members of the Board of Directors, the Fiscal Council and any bodies created by a statutory provision that performs technical or advisory functions of the Issuer; ii. members of the statutory bodies of companies (i) that directly or indirectly control the Issuer, and (ii) in which the Issuer is the only direct or indirect controlling stockholder, provided that said company does not have its own policy for the trading of securities; iii. anybody who, in view of their job, duty or position in the Issuer, our parent company, or our subsidiary or affiliated companies, is aware of relevant information; iv. the spouse or partner and any other dependent included in the annual income tax return of people indicated in items i. and ii., including the six-month term beginning on the resignation date; v. people mentioned in items i., ii. and iii of this subitem who resigned from the Issuer or companies in which we are the only controlling stockholder, during the six-month term beginning on the resignation date; and vi. our former managers or the former managers of our subsidiaries, who had been expatriated, as well as their spouses or partners and any other dependents included in their annual income tax returns, including the six-month term beginning on the date of resignation from the company to which they were expatriated.
In addition, people equivalent to bound persons are: (a) the managers of portfolio and investment funds, companies or other institutions or entities in which bound persons are the only quota holders or stockholders, or in which they may influence trading decisions; (b) any legal entity directly or indirectly controlled by bound persons; and (c) any person who has had access to information on a material act or fact through whether any of the bound persons.
We also have compliance teams that, together with the officers of each department, identify persons who will be bound by the Trading Policy in view of their department or the information to which they had access, and these persons are then recorded in a specific system.
Our system has approximately 6,872 people listed (including statutorily compliant persons, their relatives, and employees with access to insider information, companies, etc.).


LOGO

c) main characteristics
The Trading Policy is managed by the Investor Relations Officer, assisted by the Disclosure and Trading Committee, the scope of which covers a range of internal actions aimed at improving the information flow and upholding the ethical conduct of the management members and employees who are signatories to the policies. It is incumbent upon the Committee with respect to the Disclosure and Trading Policies to: i. advise the Investor Relations Officer; ii. review the policies and recommend to the Board of Directors any applicable change; iii. resolve on possible questions regarding the interpretation of the policies texts; iv. define the necessary actions to divulge and disseminate such changes, including to the Issuer’s employees; v. assist the Investor Relations Officer in investigating and deciding on any violation thereof, reporting possible infringements to the Integrity and Ethics Committee and to the Board of Directors, as applicable; vi. analyze the content of the answers referring to official challenges of regulatory and self-regulatory bodies; and vii. offer to the Investor Relations Officer a solution for cases either exceptional or not covered by law.
The Trading Policy sets forth several duties, among of which are:
Disclosure of relevant trading transactions:
i. any corporate entity or individual, or group of entities or individuals, acting as a group or representing a common interest, which carry out relevant trading activities, these being the business or group of business through which the direct or indirect interest surpasses the upper and lower levels of 5%, 10% or 15%, and so on, of type or class of shares in the Issuer’s capital stock, should report this fact to the Issuer, and: a) this obligation also extends to the acquisition of any rights to shares and other securities and derivative financial instruments referenced to these shares, even though physical settlement is not expected; b) this communication should be made immediately after these transactions are completed, and the Reference Form should be updated within seven business days from the date the relevant trading activity occurred.
d) provision for black-out periods and description of the procedures adopted to inspect trading in such periods
Bound persons may not: i. trade in securities issued by the Issuer or its subsidiaries (in Brazil), or referenced thereto, from the acknowledgment date to the disclosure date, including of the material act or fact to the market, and this black-out period is also applied to those who have a business, professional or trust relationship with the Issuer, such as independent auditors, securities analysts, consultants and institutions that are part of the distribution system, which is responsible for verifying the information disclosure before trading (the Investor Relations Officer may, regardless of justification or the existence of undisclosed material act or fact, determine exceptional black-out periods); ii. buy or sell securities before the end of a period of 180 days of the last disposal or acquisition of securities on stock exchanges or organized over the counter markets; iii. trade whenever an intention exists of entering into a takeover, a total or partial spin-off, a merger, a transformation or a corporate reorganization; iv. rent shares or any other securities; v. operate with stock options, sell shares at forward markets or trade shares at futures markets; vi. trade in the period between the decision made by the proper corporate body to increase capital, distribute dividends, grant bonus on shares or on assets referenced thereto, approve split, reverse split, subscription of shares and the publication of the respective notices or announcements; and vii. trade within the period of fifteen (15) days prior to (including the day subsequent to) (a) the disclosure of the Issuer’s quarterly information and annual information, or (b) the publication of the notice that will make them available to stockholders, according to the disclosure schedule of the current year. Should the Issuer disclose preliminary financial information or make an early disclosure of such information, the restrictions on trading will also be in effect on the day after the disclosure.
Additionally, direct or indirect controlling stockholders, either by exclusive or shared control, officers, members of the Board of Directors, the Fiscal Council and any bodies created by a statutory provision that performs technical or advisory functions, or members of the statutory bodies of companies (i) which directly or indirectly control the Issuer, and (ii) in which the Issuer is the only direct or indirect controlling stockholder, are prohibited from trading in if: a. they have not announced their intention to Itaú Corretora de Valores S.A. to trade securities issued by the Issuer and its subsidiaries, or referenced thereto, up to 10:30 a.m. of the same day they intend to do so; b. they have traded securities issued by the Issuer and its subsidiaries, or referenced thereto, for up to three days, or 60% of the business days, of the same week (this prohibition will not apply if the Issuer, its subsidiaries, affiliates or another company under common control do not trade in treasury shares); and c. the treasury department of the Issuer, its subsidiaries, affiliates or another company under common control trades shares issued by the Issuer as a result of a crisis or other economic facts implying high volatility of prices and/or low market liquidity, or as determined by their respective Investor Relations Officers.


LOGO

The Trading Policy also prohibits the Issuer from purchasing its own shares in the period described in items i. and vii. above. Moreover, the Board of Directors is prohibited from resolving on the acquisition or disposal of shares of own issue, if an agreement or contract has been entered into for the transfer of stockholding control or if an option or general authority for the same purpose has been granted, or if an intention exists of carrying out a takeover, a total or partial spin-off, a merger, a transformation or a corporate reorganization of the Issuer, and as long as the transaction has not been made public by a material fact disclosure.
In order to trade securities issued by us or referred thereto, the persons bound to the Trading Policy should solely make use of the securities brokers of the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, which have controls to prevent the transactions described above from breaching the Trading Policy, as applicable, and are also monitored by the compliance teams.

The Trading Policy is available on the Issuer’s Investor Relations website: www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Rules and Policies > Policies.
20.2. Supply other information that the issuer may deem relevant
In November 2004, following a detailed national and international survey of the best corporate governance practices, we became, together with Itaúsa – Investimentos Itaú S.A., the first Brazilian companies to voluntarily adopt operating rules for trading treasury shares. These rules now govern our trading of own shares on stock exchanges.
In the management’s view, our adopting these rules has brought many benefits, including reducing operational, financial and strategic risks, creating an in-house culture for these operations in capital markets, minimizing possible market concentration or improper pricing, and bolstering a securities repurchase strategy focused on the preservation of liquidity and value to stockholders. All this has led to greater transparency in this type of transaction.
Share Buyback Program
We clarify that the share buyback program approved on May 30, 2019, which authorized the acquisition of up to 15,000,000 common shares and up to 75,000,000 preferred shares issued by us, with no capital decrease, to be held in treasury, cancelled or replaced in the market, expired on November 30, 2020.
Aiming at keeping transparency with the market, we will disclose whenever a new share buyback program is approved and the number of shares monthly acquired under our share buyback program on our Investor Relations website: www.itau.com.br/investor-relations > Market Information > Announcements to the Market.
For information on the history of previous buyback programs, please see item 19.1.
