Forward-Looking Statements

This Report on Economic and Financial Analysis contains forward-looking statements relating to our business, which are based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about future events and financial trends, which could affect our business. Words such as: “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “intends”, “aims”, “evaluates”, “predicts”, “foresees”, “projects”, “guidelines”, “should” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements however, are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, which are difficult to predict and which could be beyond our control. Furthermore, certain forward-looking statements are based on assumptions which, depended on future events, may prove to be inaccurate. Therefore, actual results may differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, projections and intentions expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.

Factors which could modify actual results include, among others, changes in regional, national and international commercial and economic conditions; inflation rates; increase in customer delinquency on the account of borrowers and any other delays in loan operations; increase in the allowance for loan losses; loss of funding capacity; loss of clients or revenues; our capacity to sustain and improve performance; changes in interest rates which could, among others, adversely affect our margins; competition in the banking sector, in financial services, credit card services, insurance, asset management and other related sectors; government regulations and fiscal matters; disputes or adverse legal proceedings or ruling; as well as credit risks and other loan and investment activity risks.

Accordingly, the reader should not place excessive reliance on these forward-looking statements. These statements are valid only as at the date they are made. Except as required under applicable legislation, we assume no obligation whatsoever to update these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or any other motive.


Risk Factors and Critical Accounting Practices

We transcribe below the annual report filed with the SEC – “Risk Factors” and “Critical Accounting Practices” sections of Form 20-F , to assure Bradesco’s adhesion to best international practices for transparency and corporate governance, describing the risk factors and the critical accounting practices which we consider most significant and which could affect our daily business, the results of our operations or our financial position. We stress that Bradesco addresses the management of all risks inherent to its activities in a complete and integrated manner. This integrated approach facilitates the improvement of risk management models and avoids the existence of any gap that could jeopardize the correct identification and assessment of these risks.

Risks Relating to Brazil

1) Brazilian political and economic conditions have direct impact on our business and on the market price of our stocks and ADSs

All of our operations and clients are mainly located in Brazil. Accordingly, our financial condition and results of operations are substantially dependent on Brazil’s economy, which in the past has been characterized by frequent intervention by the Brazilian Government and volatile economic cycles. In addition, our financial condition and the market price of our stocks and ADSs may also be adversely affected by changes in policy involving exchange controls, tax and other matters, as well as factors such as: fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rate, inflation rates, and other political, diplomatic, social and economic developments within and outside of Brazil that affect the Country.

In the past, the Brazilian Government has often changed monetary, fiscal and taxation policies to influence the course of Brazil’s economy. We cannot predict which measures or policies the Brazilian Government may take in response to the current or future situation of the Brazilian economy or how the Brazilian government intervention and government policies will affect the Brazilian economy and, both directly and indirectly, our operations and revenues.

2) If Brazil undergoes a period of high inflation in the future, our revenues and the market price of our stocks and ADSs may be reduced

In the last 15 years, Brazil has undergone extremely high inflation rates, with annual rates (IGP – DI from Getulio Vargas Foundation) reaching as high as 1,158% in 1992, 2,708% in 1993 and 1,093% in 1994. More recently, Brazil’s inflation rates were 7.7% in 2003, 12.1% in 2004 and 1.2% in 2005. Inflation and governmental measures to combat it have had in past years significant negative effects on the Brazilian economy. In addition, public speculation about possible future actions have also contributed to economic uncertainty in Brazil and to heightened volatility in the Brazilian securities markets. If Brazil suffers a period of high inflation in the future, our costs may increase, our operating and net margins may decrease and, if investor’s confidence lags, the price of our stocks and ADSs may drop. Inflationary pressures may also curtail our ability to access foreign financial markets and may occasionally lead to further government intervention in the economy, including the introduction of government policies that may adversely affect the overall performance of the Brazilian economy.

3) Access to international capital markets for Brazilian companies is influenced by the perception of risk in emerging economies, which may harm our ability to finance our operations

Since the end of 1997, and in particular during the last five years, as a result of economic problems in various emerging market countries, including the economic crisis in Argentina, investors have had a heightened risk perception for investments in emerging markets. As a result, in some periods, Brazil has experienced a significant outflow of U.S. dollars, while Brazilian companies have borne higher costs to raise funds, both domestically and abroad, and have been impeded from accessing international capital markets. We cannot assure you that international capital markets will remain open to Brazilian companies or that prevailing interest rates in these markets will be advantageous for us.


4) Developments in other emerging markets may adversely affect the market price of our stocks and ADSs

The market price of our stocks and ADSs may be adversely affected by declines in the international financial markets and world economic conditions. Brazilian securities markets are influenced by the local economy and other emerging countries, especially those in Latin America, including Argentina, which is one of Brazil’s principal trading partners. Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors’ reaction to developments in one country may affect the securities markets and the securities of issuers in other countries, including Brazil.

Occasionally, developments in other countries have adversely affected the market price of our and other Brazilian companies’ stocks, as investors’ high risk perception due to crisis in other emerging markets may lead to reduced levels of investment in Brazil and, in addition, may hurt our ability to finance our operations through the international capital markets. If the economic situation in Argentina and Latin America deteriorates, or if similar developments occur in the international financial markets in the future, the market price of our stocks and ADSs may be adversely affected.

Risks Relating to Bradesco and the Brazilian Banking and Insurance Industries

1) The Brazilian Government regulates the operations of Brazilian banks and insurance companies, and changes in prevailing laws and regulations or the imposition of new ones may adversely affect our operations and results

Brazilian banks and insurance companies are subject to extensive and continuous regulatory review by the Brazilian Government. We have no control over government regulations, which govern all facets of our operations, including the imposition of minimum capital requirements, compulsory deposits, loan limits and other loan restrictions.

The regulatory structure governing Brazilian banks and insurance companies is continuously evolving. Existing laws and regulations could be amended. Besides, the enforcement or interpretation of laws and regulations could change, and new laws and regulations could be adopted. Such changes could materially affect in a negative manner our operations and our results.

Regulatory changes affecting other businesses in which we are engaged, including our broker dealer, consortium and leasing operations, could also have an adverse effect on our operations and our results.

2) The increasingly competitive environment in the Brazilian bank and insurance industries may adversely affect our business prospects

We face significant competition in all of our principal areas of operation from other large Brazilian banks and public and private insurance companies. Brazilian regulations raise limited barriers only to market entry and do not differentiate between local or foreign commercial and investment banks and insurance companies. As a result, the growing presence of foreign banks and insurance companies in Brazil, some of which have greater resources than we do, has grown the competition both in the banking and insurance sectors. The privatization of publicly-owned banks has also made the Brazilian markets for banking and other financial services more competitive.

The increased competition may negatively affect our business results and prospects by, among other things: limiting our ability to increase our customer base and expand our operations; reducing our profit margins on the banking, insurance, leasing services and other products we offer; and increasing competition for foreign investment opportunities.

Furthermore, additional publicly-owned banks and insurance companies may be privatized in the future. The acquisition of a bank or insurance company in a privatization process by one of our competitors would generally add to the acquirers’ market share, and as a result we may face increased competition from the acquirer.

3) The majority of our common stocks are held by two stockholders, whose interests may conflict with other investors’ interests

On September 30, 2006 Cidade de Deus – Companhia Comercial de Participações held 48.44% of our common stocks and Fundação Bradesco directly and indirectly held 46.59% of our common stocks. As a result, these stockholders have the power to prevent a change in control of our company, even if a transaction of that nature would be beneficial to our other stockholders, as well as to approve related-party transactions or corporate reorganizations.


Critical Accounting Practices

Bradesco’s results are susceptible to accounting policies, assumptions and estimates. It is incumbent upon the Management to adopt proper accounting policies and provide reasonable and suitable judgments and estimates when preparing the financial statements.

Our relevant accounting policies are outlined in the note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in chapter 8 of this Report.

The following 5 items outline the accounting policies deemed as critical, in terms of materiality, as well as areas requiring a greater judgment and estimate or involving a higher level of complexity, affecting our financial condition and the results of our operations. The accounting estimates made under such context impel us to make assumptions on highly uncertain issues. In each case, if we had made other estimates, or if changes in estimates had occurred period by period, these could have significantly impacted our financial condition or the results of our operations:

1) Allowance for Loan Losses

We periodically adjust our allowance for loan losses and leasing based on the analysis of our portfolio, including probable losses estimate in these segments at the end of each period.

The determination of allowance for loan losses amount by its nature requires us to make judgments and assumptions related to our loan operations portfolio, not only on an individual basis, but also on a portfolio basis. When we revise our portfolio as a whole, various factors may affect our estimate of probable extension of losses, including the methodology we use to measure historical rates of delinquency and the historical period we take into account in such measurements. When we revise loan operations on an individual basis, we make judgments related to the factors, which most probably should affect the risk levels and which specific credit rating we should attribute. Additional factors, which may affect our determination of allowance for loan losses include:

– general economic conditions in Brazil and conditions of relevant sector;
– previous experience with borrower or relevant sector of economy, including losses recent experience;
– credit quality trends;
– guarantees amounts of a loan operation;
– volume, composition and growth of our loan operations portfolio;
– Brazilian Government’s monetary policy; and
– any delays when receiving information necessary to assess loan operations or confirm the deterioration of existing credit.

Our determination of allowance for loan losses is influenced by the risk rating of each loan operation. By assuming a positive fluctuation of 1.0% in delinquency rate expected for our loan operations portfolio in full performance on September 30, 2006, the allowance for loan losses would increase approximately R$37 million. Such sensitivity analysis is hypothetical and intends to illustrate the risk rating and loss severity impact on our allowance for loan losses. The analysis should not be considered as an observation of our expectations for future determinations of risk rating or future alterations in loss severity. In view of the procedures we observe, in order to determine our risk rating of loan portfolio and our assessment of loss severity, we believe that the current risk rating and the estimate of loss severity for our loan portfolio are appropriate.

For further information about our practices referring to the allowance for loan losses, see content of loan operations included in Chapter 3 of this Report and notes 3e and 10 included in the Chapter 8 hereof.

2) Assessment of Securities and Derivatives

The financial instruments recorded at fair value in our financial statements mainly include securities classified as for trading, available for sale and other trading assets, including derivatives. The fair value is defined as the value in which a position could be closed or sold in a transaction with a party aware of the issue and willing to trade, without any benefit.

We estimate the fair value by using market-quoted prices when available. We observe that the fair value may be affected by the volume of shares traded and also may not reflect the “control premiums” resulting from shareholders’ agreements, those holding significant investments. However, the Management believes that market-quoted prices are the fair value best indicators.


When market-quoted prices are not available, we use models to estimate the fair value. The factors used in these models include distributors’ quotations, pricing models, prices of instruments with similar characteristics and discounted cash flows. The pricing based on models also uses information about interest rates, exchange rates, options volatility, when these are relevant and available.

In the determination of fair value, when market-quoted prices are not available, we have the Management’s judgment, since the models depend on our judgment concerning the weight to be attributed to different factors and the quality of information we receive. For instance, reliable market data, when estimating the impact of maintaining a high position are generally limited. Likewise, we use our judgment in the estimate of prices when there is no external parameter. Should we make incorrect assumptions or the model itself makes correlations or incorrect assumptions, the value of income or loss recorded for a specific asset or liability may be improper. The judgment shall also determine if a decline in fair value below the up-to-date cost of a security held to maturity or security available for sale is not temporary, so that to require we recognize a devaluation of up-to-date cost and we may reflect such reduction as expense. In the assessment, if devaluation is not temporary, the Management decides the historical period to be considered and the level of severity of a loss.

Such assessment methods may lead Bradesco to different results, if models used or assumptions and estimates are inaccurate.

For further information about our practices referring to the assessment of securities and derivative financial instruments, see notes 3c, 3d and 8 included in the Chapter 8 of this Report.

3) Classification of Securities

The classification of securities occurs in three categories: for trading, available for sale and held to maturity. This classification is based on the Management’s intent, on the date of acquisition of securities, of maintaining or trading such securities. The accounting treatment of securities held depends on our decision to classify them upon their acquisition. Circumstantial changes may modify our strategy related to a specific security, which will require a transfer among the three categories. The classification of securities can be found in the note 8 included in the Chapter 8 of this Report.

4) Taxes on Income

The determination of the amount of our taxes and contributions is related to the analysis of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and taxes on income payable. Generally, our assessment requires us to estimate the future values of deferred tax assets and taxes on income payable. Our assessment about the possibility of a deferred tax asset to be realized is subjective and involves evaluations and assumptions originally uncertain. The realization of deferred tax assets is subject to alterations in future tax rates and the development of our tax planning strategies. The support to our assessments and assumptions may change over time, as a result of occurrences or unpredictable circumstances, influencing our determination of value of our tax liabilities.

Constantly we monitor and assess the impact of new tax laws on our liabilities, which could affect the assessments and assumptions of our analysis about the possibility of realizing deferred tax assets. For further information about Bradesco’s taxes on income, see notes 3f and 34 to our financial statements included in the Chapter 8 of this Report.

5) Use of Estimates

Our Management estimates and makes assumptions, which include the amount of provisions for deferred taxes, the assumptions for the calculation of allowance for loan losses, the assumptions for calculations of technical provisions for insurance, private pension plans and certificated savings plans, the choice of useful lives of certain assets and the determination if an asset or group of specific assets was deteriorated. The estimates are based on the judgment and available information. Therefore, actual results may differ from such estimates.


Corporate Strategy

We understand that the expansion of the Brazilian economy will stimulate a solid growth in a portion of the population needing financial services, and accordingly, an expansion of demand for such services. Under such context, our main objective is to maintain the focus on the domestic market and take advantage of our position, as the largest private bank in Brazil, to expand profitability, maximizing value to our stockholders and generating higher returns compared to other Brazilian financial institutions.

We intend to achieve such goals with a strategy not only to continuously expand our customer base, but also to consolidate our role as “the priority bank” of each of our clients, so that to be the first option of all our clients towards all their financial services needs. Our goal is to be a “Banco Completo” (all-inclusive Bank) in the Brazilian market. In this regard, we strive to maintain a remarkable presence in every line of financial services.

In the banking segment, we aim at rendering the most varied range of services as retail bank, supported by a staff with more than 78 thousand employees, a wide service network, including our branches, corporate site branches, Banco Postal and correspondent banks, besides the ATMs, always concerned with the expansion of business volume. We are also focused on expanding our businesses as a wholesale bank in all its aspects (investment bank and corporate business) and expand our private banking business.

In the insurance segment, we intend to consolidate Bradesco Seguros e Previdência leadership, and in relation to the supplementary private pension segment, we intend to take advantage of our ongoing expansion of demand for our private pension products.

In every line of our operation, we intend to stand out and be recognized by our clients as leaders in terms of performance and efficiency.

We understand that the essence of business success in the financial sector consists of the combination between winning the client and a team highly qualified and devoted to the rendering of services, permanently trained and with rigid discipline standards at work. Our growth plans are not only translated into seeking the addition of new clients but also are focused on the frequent improvement of products and distribution channels. It is also fundamental to promote the business, the treatment given to our team in terms of qualification, promotion and creation of a solidarity culture at work, with a view to fomenting an environment where our employees may develop a career enduring during their entire professional life. Finally, the main component of our philosophy is to conduct the business according to the highest ethical standards. Therefore, our strategy is always guided by seeking the best Corporate Governance practices and by the understanding that Bradesco, besides being a source of profits to its stockholders, should also be a building element in the Society.

The key elements of our business strategy are:

– expansion by means of organic growth;
– performance based on the business model of a large banking institution, having as subsidiary an important insurance company, which we name as “Modelo Banco-Seguros” (Insurance Bank Model), with a view to maintaining our profitability and consolidate our leadership in the insurance industry;
– increase of revenues, profitability and value to stockholders, by consolidating our loan operations, our main activity, and the expansion of new products and services;
– maintenance of our commitment to the technological innovation;
– obtain profitability and return to the stockholders by means of improved efficiency ratio;
– maintain acceptable risk levels in our operations; and – expansion by means of strategic alliances and selective acquisitions, when these are beneficial.

1) To expand main business areas by means of organic growth

The Brazilian economy has been showing solidity over the past years and has been creating strategic opportunities for financial and insurance segments growth, mainly by means of increased business volume. We intend to take advantage of such opportunities to increase our revenues, obtain profitability and maximize value to the stockholders, as outlined as follows:

– benefiting from the opportunity in the Brazilian markets to obtain new clients with loan and financial needs only partially met, incrementing the competition for a small level of clients with higher income levels;
– expanding our financial services distribution, by using creativity in developing new products, solidly employing non-traditional means, for instance, to expand our credit cards offer and extension of loan granting to stores, by utilizing alliances with such stores and rendering services via the Banco Postal;


– using the distribution channels in benefit of the Bank, including our traditional branch network and technology to access the Internet in order to identify demand for new products;
– offering our customer base, broadly, our products and services;
– using the systems of our branches, with a view to assessing and monitoring the use of our products by clients, so that to drive them to the appropriate commercialization platforms; and
– developing varied products, in compliance with the needs of our current and potential clients.

2) To operate based on the Insurance Bank Model,in order to maintain the profitability and consolidate Bradesco’s leadership in the insurance industry

Our goal is to be “the priority bank” of our clients, thus increasing attendance according to their banking, insurance and private pension needs. We believe to be in a privileged position to capitalize the synergy among banking, insurance, private pension services and other financial activities in order to sell our traditional banking products and insurance and private pension products, by means of our branch network, our brokers and dealerships network, distribution services via the Internet and our creativity in developing new distribution channels.

Concurrently, we aim at increasing profitability levels of insurance and supplementary private pension plans segments, by using the profitability measure rather than the volume of underwritten premium or amounts deposited, as observed as follows:
– maintaining our current policy of carefully assessing the car insurance risks and rejecting them in events where risks are too high;
– intensively trading our products; and
– maintaining acceptable risk levels in our operations by means of a strategy of :

• setting priorities to insurance underwriting opportunities, according to the risk spread between the revenue expected pursuant to the terms of insurance agreement and the amount of projected claims (statistically) to be due under the terms of such agreement;
• carrying out hedge transactions, so that to set out the mismatch between the real inflation index and provisions for adjustments of interest rates and inflation in long-term agreements; and
• entering into reinsurance agreements with renowned reinsurance companies, executed by means of IRB-Brasil Resseguros (IRB), viewing to reducing the exposure to great risks.

3) Increased revenues from banking activities, profitability and value to stockholders, by reinforcing loan operations and expanding new products and services

We are concerned with the increase of revenues and profitability in our banking operations, with the following measures:

– carry out our traditional deposit-taking activities and loan operations, continuously seeking to improve the quality of our loan portfolio, by means of risk mitigation plans and improvement in the assessment of loan granting ratings;
– build our customer base, legal entities and individuals, by offering services meeting the needs of specific clients, including foreign exchange services and import/export financing;
– intensively seek the development of paid services based on fees, such as collection and payment processing for current and potential clients;
– expand our financial services and products distributed out of our conventional means of branches, such as credit card activities, taking advantage of change in the consumers’ behavior concerning the financial services consumption;
– increase our revenues from assets management and private pension plans; and
– continuously build our high income customer base, by providing a varied range of tailor-made financial products and services, and offering maximum efficiency in the assets management.

4) To maintain Bradesco’s commitment to technological innovation

The development of efficient means to reach clients and to process operations is a key element of our goal to increase our profitability and thus obtain coordinated growth opportunities. Recently, Bradesco resolved to reinforce such strategy with the challenge of changing our technological model, with a view to definitively maintaining Bradesco’s market leadership in the industry in terms of technology. Thus, Bradesco set a task force devoted to the advance of our profile and public perception towards technology.


We believe that technology offers unequalled opportunities to reach our clients efficiently in terms of costs. We maintain the commitment of being ahead in the banking automation process, by creating opportunities to the Brazilians to contact us via the Internet. We expect to continue increasing the number of clients and operations carried out through the Internet, by means of techniques, such as:

– by continuously installing stations of access to the Internet (Web Points) in public sites, allowing clients to use our banking system via the Internet, whether or not they have access to a personal computer;
– by enlarging our mobile banking service (Bradesco Mobile Banking), allowing clients to carry out their banking operations via the Internet, with compatible mobile phones; and
– by providing Pocket Internet Banking for palmtops and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) allowing our clients to see their checking and savings accounts, credit card transactions, provide for payments, transfer funds and also obtain institutional information.

5) To obtain profitability and return to stockholders by improving the efficiency ratio

We intend to improve our efficiency levels:

– by maintaining the austerity as guideline for our cost control policy;
– by consolidating the synergies enabled by our recent acquisitions;
– by still reducing our operational costs, by means of technology investments, decreasing the costs per transaction, always maintaining our automated distribution channels updated, including our distribution systems by phone, Internet and teller machines; and
– by still incorporating institutions to be acquired in our existing system, in order to remove potential overlaps, redundancies and inefficiency.

6) To maintain acceptable risk levels in our operations

Bradesco is constantly identifying and assessing the risks inherent to the activities we developed and we maintain proper controls, ensuring the conformity with processes and capital efficient allocation, with a view to maintaining levels similar to international standards, as well as to obtain competitive advantages.

7) To enter into strategic alliances and selective acquisitions

We understand that the expansion phase of Brazilian financial institutions will occur due to organic growth over the next years. In addition, we believe that acquisition opportunities will be smaller size institutions, mainly available by means of privatizations. Notwithstanding, we deem that certain institutions, susceptible to be acquired, could present niche opportunities, such as consumer financing, credit cards and investment bank. Therefore, we continuously evaluate potential strategic alliances as well as consolidation opportunities, including privatization and acquisitions proposals, and other forms, which offer potential opportunities to Bradesco increase its market share or improve its efficiency. Besides focusing on the value and the quality of assets, Bradesco takes into account potential operating synergies, crossed sales opportunities, know-how acquisitions and other advantages of potential alliance or acquisition. Our analysis of potential opportunities is guided by the impact these would have over our results.

(1) the partial result of derivatives used for hedge effect of investments Abroad, which in terms of Net Income, simply annuls the fiscal and tax effect (IR/CS and PIS/COFINS) of the hedge strategy;
(2) the extraordinary provision in the “Individual Health” portfolio, to equate the level of premiums for insurance holders above 60 years old of plans prior to Law 9,656/98 and for the benefits related to planos remidos, which was offset by the positive result reached in the disposal of part of our stake in Belgo-Mineira in the period of 2005;
(3) the supplementary constitution of provision for labor proceedings, due to CVM Resolution #489, which was fully offset by the activation of fiscal credits of previous periods, in the amount of R$204 million and by R$105 million of the fiscal credit of the expense of the provision for labor proceedings; and
(4) full goodwill amortization in subsidiaries made in 3Q06.

Bradesco’s net income reached R$4,743 million, accounting for a 17.1% increase in relation to net income of the same period of the previous year. Bradesco’s Stockholders’ Equity amounted to R$21,773 million as of September 30, 2006, equivalent to a 19.2% increase compared to the balance as of September 30, 2005. Consequently, the annualized return on Stockholders’ Equity (ROE) reached 30.1% . Total consolidated assets reached R$243,192 million as of September 30, 2006, a 20.4% growth in relation to the balance of same date of the previous year. The annualized return on total assets (ROA), in the period of 2006, was 2.6% . Earnings per stock reached R$4.84.

The main items influencing net income in the nine months of 2006 compared to the same period of the previous year can be seen below:

(a) Net Interest Income – R$2,848 million

Such growth is basically due to “interest” component, with a share of R$2,266 million, mainly caused by an increment in the business volume, pointing out a 27.0% increase in the volume of loan operations for individuals in the 12-month period ended on September 30, 2006, mainly concerned with consumer sales and personal loan financing, the spread of which is higher when compared to the corporate portfolio. In the “non-interest” component, with a share of R$582 million, the highlight was for the largest gains of TVM and treasury in the nine months of 2006.

(b) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – R$1,486 million

The variation is mostly due to a 22.3% increase in the volume of loan operations in the 12-month period ended on September 30, 2006, pointing out the individual client operations, with an increase of 27.0%, mainly under the type “personal loan”, which in view of its specific characteristic requires a higher volume of provision, as well as the increase of the delinquency ratio, as noticed in all Brazilian Financial System.

(c) Income from Insurance,Private Pension Plan and Certificated Savings Plans Operations – R$323 million

The evolution is mostly due to: (i) the recovery in sales of the products “VGBL” and “PGBL”; (ii) the increase in the production of products of the corporate plan of the Health segment; (iii) the increase in the production of popular products of the Life segment; mitigated: (iv) by the complementation of the premiums provision in the “Individual Health” portfolio.

(d) Fee and Commission Income – R$1,135 million

The increase in the period is mainly due to a higher volume of operations, combined with the improvement in the segmentation process and BEC and Amex Brasil consolidation, pointing out the items “Checking Accounts”, “Income from Cards”, “Loan Operations” and “Fund Management” .

(e) Personnel, Administrative and Tax Expenses – R$(1,287) million

Out of such amount, R$522 million of personnel expenses is basically due to: (i) the increase in salary levels resulting from the collective bargaining agreement of 2005, which had an impact of 8 months compared to 2005; (ii) the increase in the salary levels resulting from the 2006 collective bargaining agreement; (iii) the higher expenses with provision for labor proceedings (normal) in the period of 2006; and (iv) the consolidation of BEC and Amex Brasil.

The R$496 million of other administrative expenses basically refer to: (i) the effects on increased volume of business; (ii) the consolidation of BEC and Amex Brasil in 2006; and (iii) contractual adjustments in the period.

The R$269 million of tax expenses derive basically from the increase of PIS/COFINS expenses, due to the increase in taxable income in the period of 2006 compared to the same period of 2005.

(1) partial result of derivatives used for hedge effect of investments Abroad, which in terms of Net Income, simply annuls the fiscal and tax effect (IR/CS and PIS/COFINS) of this hedge strategy;
(2) supplementary constitution of provisions for labor proceedings, according to CVM Resolution #489 made in the 3rd quarter of 2006, which was offset by activation of fiscal credits of previous periods, in the amount of R$204 million and by R$105 million of the fiscal credit of the expense of the provision for labor proceedings; and

In the 3rd quarter of 2006, Bradesco’s Adjusted Net Income reached R$1,611 million, which corresponds to a 0.6% growth when compared to the 2nd quarter of 2006. Bradesco’s Stockholders’ Equity amounted to R$21,773 million on September 30, 2006, a 1.5% increase in relation to June 30, 2006. Total consolidated assets reached R$243,192 million at the end of the 3rd quarter of 2006, growing 4.4% in the quarter. The main items influencing net income in the 3rd quarter of 2006 compared to the same period of the previous quarter can be seen below:

(a) Net Interest Income – R$(84) million

Such variation is basically due to “non-interest” component, with a reduction of R$293 million, motivated by lower treasury and TVM gains in the quarter, mostly due to the negative adjustment of mark-to-market of derivative financial instruments used as market risk hedge of loan operations in the country, offset by “interest” component, with an evolution of R$209 million resulting, basically, from a business volume expansion, pointing out a 3.4% increase in the volume of loan operations for individuals, mainly concerned with products related to consumer financing.

(b)Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – R$(53) million

The variation is mainly due to the growth of 3.8% in the volume of loan operations in the 3rd quarter of 2006, mainly operations for individuals, specially for the “personal loan” category, due to its specific characteristics, which requires a higher volume of provision, mitigated by the stable increase of the delinquency ratio.

(c) Income from Insurance, Private Pension Plans and Certificated Savings Plans Operations – R$86 million

The evolution is mainly due to: the constitution of additional technical provision in the “Individual Health” portfolio in the 2nd quarter of 2006 R$95 million.

(d)Fee and Commission Income – R$252 million

The increase is mostly due to an expansion in the volume of operations in the quarter, jointly with the consolidation of Amex Brasil R$130 million in the quarter.

(e) Personnel, Administrative and Tax Expenses – R$(246) million

Out of this amount, R$115 million of personnel expenses is basically due to: (i) the 2006 collective bargaining agreement which affected expenses in R$87 million; and (ii) higher expenses in view of the consolidation of Amex Brasil R$36 million.

Out of this amount, R$132 million of administrative expenses is basically due to the increase in business volumes, jointly with the consolidation of Amex Brasil at the amount of R$75 million.

Adjusted Profitability
 

Bradesco’s adjusted net income reached R$4,743 million from January 1 to September 30, 2006, against R$4,051 million reached in the same period of 2005, which corresponds to a 17.1% increase. Stockholders’ Equity amounted to R$21,773 million on September 30, 2006, with a growth of 19.2% compared to the balance of September 30, 2005. Accordingly, the annualized Return on Stockholders’ Equity (ROE) reached 30.1% . Total assets added up to R$243.192 million until September 30, 2006, growing 20.4% when compared to the balance of September 30, 2005. The annualized Return on Total Assets (ROA) in 2006 was 2.6% . Earnings per stock reached R$4.84.

In the 3rd quarter of 2006, the adjusted net income was R$1,611 million, representing an increase of R$9 million or 0.6% compared to the net income of the 2nd quarter of 2006. The annualized return on the Stockholders’ Equity (ROE) reached 33.0% and the return on total assets (ROA) was 2.7% . Earnings per stock reached R$1.65.

The 3Q06 was affected by a decrease of income composing the Net Interest Income, composed mainly by lower “non-interest” results, reaching the amount of R$318 million, a R$293 million decrease, compared to 2Q06, basically due to the negative adjustment of mark-to-market of derivative financial instruments used as market risk hedge of loan operations in the country. On the other hand, the result with interest reached the amount of R$4,549 million, a R$209 million growth in relation to the previous quarter. This increase is basically due to an increment in the business volume. We point out a 3.4% increase in the volume of loan operations for individuals, mainly focused on products connected to consumer financing, with a higher profitability than the corporate portfolio.

The Operating Income from Insurance, Private Pension Plans and Certificated Savings Plans contributed in 3Q06 with an increase of R$86 million, as a result of the additional constitution of technical provision in personal health insurance in the 2nd quarter of 2006.

In the 3rd quarter of 2006, we can see the stability of the general delinquency ratio in view of the growth of the products “vehicles” and “personal loan” consigned and/or connected to payroll, which for their guarantees and characteristics, provided these operations a low credit risk level. As a result, there was recording of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, in the amount of R$1,169 million in 3Q06, which results in a R$53 million increase when compared to the recording of R$1,116 million in 2Q06. We also established surplus provisions at the amount of R$27 million in 2Q06 and R$12 million in 3Q06. Excluded such effects, the provision would be R$1,157 million in 3Q06 against R$1,089 million in 2Q06, i.e., an 6.2% growth, reaching a level of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of R$6,215 million on September 30, 2006.

In the 3rd quarter of 2006, we recorded a supplementary provision for labor proceedings in the amount of R$309 million (R$204 million, net of tax effects), according to CVM Resolution #489, whose effect in the net income was partially mitigated by the activation of fiscal credits of previous periods in the amount of R$204 million.

As disclosed on 9.18.2006, in the 3rd quarter of 2006, we fully amortized the goodwill in the amount of R$2.109 million, R$2.055 million of which corresponds to the balance of June 2006 plus R$54 million resulting, basically, from the goodwill complement in the acquisition of Amex Brasil.

The Operating Efficiency Ratio, in the 12-month period ended on September 30, 2006 was of 42.4%, an improvement of 0.8 percentage points when compared to the 12-month period ended on June 30, 2006 which was of 43.2, and an improvement of 4.6 percentage points when compared to the period ended on September 30, 2005, principally as a result of the combination of strict expense control with permanent efforts for increase in revenue.

The Coverage Ratio in the last 12 months [(fee and commission income)/(personnel expenses + administrative expenses)] improved 1.6 percentage point, increasing from 72.4% in June 2006 to 74.0% in September 2006, mitigated by the stable delinquency level in the 3rd quarter of 2006.

Financial Market Indicators 
 


Analysis of Net Interest Income 
 

a) Net Interest Income Adjustment 
 

We show separately the hedge fiscal effect referring to investments abroad in the compared periods, which in terms of Net Income, simply annuls the fiscal effect (IR/CS and PIS/COFINS) of this hedge strategy.

The fiscal effect is caused for the foreign exchange variation of investments abroad is not deductible when there is loss and not taxable when there is gain, while the derivatives result is taxable when it generates gain and deductible when it generates loss.

Thus, the gross hedge result is reflected in the Net Interest Income, in the “Results of Derivative Financial Instruments” account, and in the “Tax Expenses” and “Taxes on Income” accounts, the respective taxes, as shown below:

b) Comments on the Adjusted Net Interest Income Variation

In the 9 months ended on September 30, 2006, the adjusted net interest income was R$14,793 million, representing an improvement of R$2,848 million or 23.8% compared to the same period of the previous year (R$11,945 million). In 3Q06, the result of the adjusted net interest income reached R$4,867 million, compared to the result of the adjusted net interest income of R$4,951 in 2Q06.

The analytical opening of the net interest income result among “interest” and “non-interest” results is shown below:

Net Interest Income – Interest    10,898    13,164    2,266    4,340    4,549    209 
Net Interest Income – Non-Interest     1,047    1,629    582    611    318    (293)
Adjusted Net Interest Income    11,945    14,793    2,848    4,951    4,867    (84)

Despite of the 1.7% small reduction in the net interest income between the quarters, the net interest income of “interest” results of Bradesco Consolidated showed a 4.8% or R$209 million increase compared to the previous quarter and comparing the first nine months of 2006 with the same period of 2005, an even greater evolution, of 20.8% or R$2,226 million may be observed, mainly due to the volume increase of loan operations, of only 3.8% in 3Q06 and 22.3% during the last twelve months.

In 3Q06, the credits granted to companies showed a growth superior to the ones granted to individuals, due to the better performance operations portfolios abroad and to onlendings from the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES), primarily to the industrial sector, mainly the chemical, automotive and pulp and paper sector.

Although individual credits presented a growth rhythm slowdown during 2006, the balance of Bradesco operations showed a 3.4% increase in 3Q06 and an accumulated growth of 27.0% in the last twelve months, especially consumption financing operations, mainly vehicles financing operations, personal credit, leasing, credit card and assets financing.

Another factor that must be highlighted is the increase of Bradesco’s client base, of about 274 thousand new individuals’ accounts and 27 thousand companies’ accounts in the last twelve months, with positive impact to the operations as a whole, but, mostly to the raise of demand deposits, which showed a 5.7% increase in the last quarter and 19.1% in the accumulated in the last twelve months.

65


The increase of operations volume has been a fundamental factor for the restructuring of the net interest income due to the global decrease of spreads. Thus, Bradesco constantly searches for strategic positioning by means of the expansion of the client base and consequent growth of operating volumes, focused on the sustainable extension of the net interest income.

Similarly, the Selic interest rate drop directly influenced the remuneration of own working capital, technical provisions of insurance, private pension plans and certificated savings plans, funding and floating among other factors which negatively impacted the result of the “interest” net interest income.

Comparing the quarterly history since 2005, it can be observed that the “interest” net interest income result showed a constant growth during the last seven quarters, despite the slight reduction of the annualized net interest income rate of “interest” results during 2006. This indicator compares the net interest income result (“interest” results) over the average balance of total assets, as presented in the chart below:


The result of the net interest income coming from “non-interest” results in 3Q06 had a reduction of R$293 million compared to 2Q06, due to the negative adjustment of mark-to-market of derivative financial instruments used as market risk hedge of loan operations in the country. However, when analyzing the evolution of the nine-month period of 2006 compared to the same period of the previous year, we can see an increase of R$ 582 million, resulting basically from higher gains of securities and treasury.

Fee and Commission Income increased 21.3% in the nine-month period of 2006, or a R$1,135 million growth when compared to the same period of the previous year, amounting to R$6,474 million.

Major components for growth of Fee and Commission Income were in the periods:

– the strategy of clients segmentation (Private, Prime, Corporate, Middle Market and Retail), jointly with the tariff realignment and client base growth boosted the item “Checking Accounts”, up by R$268 million;

– the growth of 31.0% represented by the increase of R$288 million in the item “Cards” is directly related to the increase of 4.7 of the cards base, from 50,9 million to 53.3 million, influenced by the consolidation of Amex Brasil;

– the increase in the volume of Loan Operations, especially individuals, with highlights to the products “Personal Loan” and “Vehicles”, was the major factor for the increase in item “Revenues from Loan Operations”, a R$191 million improvement; and

– the volume growth of 22.3% in managed funds, from R$114.7 billion on September 30, 2005 to R$140.2 billion on September 30, 2006, was the main reason for the growth in the item “Assets under Management”, which increased by R$163 million.

When compared to the previous quarter, Fee and Commission Income showed an expansion of 12.1% with a R$252 million growth, as a result of the increased volumes of businesses in 3Q06, pointing out increases of 45.2%, 6.9%, 4.3% and 3.7% under the items “Credit Cards” R$160, R$116 million of which comes from Amex Brasil; “Assets under Management”, R$21 million; “Checking Accounts” R$22million; and “Loan Operations” R$14 million.

Operating Efficiency Ratio – in percentage 
 


70


The Operating Efficiency Ratio (accumulated in 12 months) up to September 2006 was practically stable at 42.4%, an improvement of 0.8 percentage point compared to the 12-month period ended in June 2006, mainly as a result of the expenses control, pointing out administrative and personnel expenses coupled with the permanent efforts for increase in revenues. It is also worth mentioning the higher net interest income in the amount of R$530 million, basically stemming from “interest” component, generated by an increment in business volume, pointing out a 27.0% increase in the volume of loan operations for individuals, mainly focused on consumer sales and personal loan financing, the profitability of which is higher if compared to the corporate loans, and increased fee and commission income, in the amount of R$425 million, as a result of increase in the average volume of transactions of fee realignment and the segmentation process.

The Operating Efficiency Ratio (accumulated in the 12 months) up to September 2006 posted a significant improvement of 4.6 percentage points, from 47.0% in September 2005 to 42.4% in September 2006, due to, basically, the effective control of expense accounts, especially, personnel and administrative expenses, which in the last 12-month period evolved 11.2% . Another factor that deserved attention in the improvement of the efficiency ratio was the 25.4% evolution of net interest income in the period compared, pointing out higher revenues from loan operations at 38.5%, boosted by an increase in the loan portfolio volume, particularly, the individual client portfolio.

The Coverage Ratio accumulated in the last 12 months (fee and commission income)/(personnel expenses + administrative expenses) improved 1.6 percentage point, increasing from 72.4% in June 2006 to 74.0% in September 2006.

Loan Operations 
 

Growth in the loan portfolio of Bradesco Conglomerate continued to be more intense in operations for individual clients in 2006, specially in the vehicle financing and personal loan portfolios. In the corporate businesses, it is worth pointing out long-term financings and operations carried out in Branches and Subsidiaries abroad, in spite of the dollar depreciation of 7.1% in the period.

The consolidated balance of loan operations reached at the end of 3Q06 a total of R$92.0 billion, representing a 3.8% increase compared to last June and 22.3% growth in the last 12 months.

Loan Operations – Total Portfolio 
 


Loan Operations – by Currency – in percentage 
 


The evolution of loans and onlendings balance of 18.1% in Reais, due mainly to the higher volume of indexed and/or denominated in foreign currency operations carried out in Branches and Subsidiaries (excluding ACC) in 3Q06, showed a significant growth abroad.

78


Loan Operations – by Purpose 
 

The loan expansion for individuals continued showing a reduction in intensity, with evolution of 3.4% in 3Q06, accruing 27.0% in the last twelve months.The main reason for the portfolio growth this quarter was the vehicles financing type.

We highlight in the loan portfolio for individuals the consumer financing (vehicles, personal loan, leasing, credit card and assets financing) which reached the amount of R$33.7 billion and share in the operations balance for individuals of 86.8% in September 2006. Vehicle financing, which remained with the highest volume of loans, aligned to consigned loans and combined with payroll charges, for its guarantees and characteristics provided the portfolio with a low loan risk level.

Loan Operations – Consumer Financing 
 


The growth rhythm of loan granted to companies was higher in 3Q06 than loans granted to individuals (contrary to the accumulated for the year), with an evolution of 4.1%, of which 19.1% in the last twelve months. Such behavior was influenced by the performance of the foreign operations portfolio and onlending operations of BNDES.

Loan Operations – per Type of Client 
 


79


Loan Operations – Client Features 
 


It is possible to notice the decrease of large company’s partial share in the loan portfolio in the last twelve months, not only in view of the increase of loans to individuals and micro, small and medium-sized companies (SME), as well as in view of the negative effect in the balance of the dollar depreciation in this period, once a great portion of operations with large companies is indexed to foreign currency. In the quarter there was not a significant change in the shares.

The evolution of balance and share in the financing type (includes mainly vehicles, real estate loan and BNDES onlendings) in 3Q06 is deservedly recorded by its performance, which is higher than the total of the portfolio.

In the table below, we can observe the evolution in the representativeness of the Bank’s business segments:

Loan Operations – per Business Segment – in percentage 
 


In 3Q06, it is worth pointing out the Corporate business segment and Banco Finasa (mainly due to vehicle financing for individual clients), which show an evolution higher than the total portfolio, reflecting on the increase of its shares in the total loans of Bradesco Conglomerate.

Loan Portfolio Quality 
 

Compared to the previous quarter, it was possible to notice a slight change in the loan portfolio profile whose participation of credits rated between “AA” and “C” compared to the total was of 92.3%, as a consequence of the impact of the change in the breakdown of the portfolio, focused on consumer financing, and the slight growth in delinquency of loans for individual clients this quarter.

81


Loan Operations by Rating – in percentage 
 


The total volume of allowance for doubtful accounts reached R$6,215 million, representing 6.8% of the total loan portfolio (6.6%, in June 2006), ensuring the maintenance of adequate levels of PDD coverage for the current profile of the loan portfolio.

In this regard, we point out the strength of the provision criteria adopted, which may be evidenced through the analysis of historical data of allowances for doubtful accounts and losses effectively occurred in the subsequent period of twelve months over all the period analyzed.

Loan Operations – PDD x Default x Losses – Percentage over Loan Operation Balance 
 


In September 2006, it can be verified that the delinquency ratio of the consolidated portfolio remained slightly stable compared to the previous quarter. The change of the portfolio profile and the slight deterioration of their payment capacity for clients in loans granted to individuals were responsible for the maintenance of ratios slightly higher than those of the previous periods. As already said in the previous quarters, increase in the delinquency indicators was expected and it is already duly priced in our products and services.

Loan Operations – Distribution of the Loan Portfolio Falling Due by Terms – in percentage 
 


The terms of operations to mature have been extending, mainly in view of consumer financing operations, which by their nature have a longer term. The operations with maturity exceeding 180 days represented 50.7% of total portfolio in September 2006, against 47.4% one year ago. It is worth mentioning that the increase in the average term of the portfolio has been occurring in low credit risk products, i.e., vehicle financing and consigned loan.

The movement of the consolidated loan portfolio in the last twelve months shows the adequacy and consistency of the loan evaluation instruments used in the concession process, maintaining its good quality, as shown in the tables below:

In the 3rd quarter, we noticed the continuity of the expansion of the loan portfolio of Bradesco Conglomerate, followed by the stability of the general delinquency ratios. This proceeding was already estimated, due to the seasonality of this period, as observed in the last years. The maintenance of adequate provision levels could absorb such fluctuations with a significant margin, maintaining all performance indicators with comfortable coverage indices.

It is worth pointing out that the Individual Clients portfolio growth results mainly from vehicles financing and consigned loan operations and/or linked to payrolls which provide this operations with low credit risk level due to its guarantees and characteristics.

For the last quarter of 2006, Bradesco remains prepared to take full advantage of all business opportunities, focused on increasing the loan portfolio, while respecting the established loan granting parameters, based on the traditional concepts of security, consistency, selectivity and diversification.

Number of Insured – in thousands
 


Until September 2006, there was an increase of 7.8% in the customer base compared to September, 2005.

When comparing 3Q06 to the same period of the prior year, Bradesco Saúde maintained its noteworthy market position (source: ANS). Brazilian companies are increasingly convinced that Health and Dental Insurance are the best alternatives for meeting their medical, hospital and dental care needs. At present, Bradesco Saúde has more than 2.5 million customers, of which 2.2 million pertain to the corporate segment.

The large share of corporate insurance in the total portfolio of Bradesco Saúde (88.26% in September/2006) confirms the insurance company’s high level of expertise and personalization in the corporate insurance services, a distinct advantage in the Supplementary Health Insurance market.

More than 12 thousand companies in Brazil have acquired Bradesco Saúde insurance products. Out of Brazil’s 100 largest companies in terms of revenues, 29 are Bradesco’s insurance clients and out of the country’s 50 largest companies, 30% are Bradesco Saúde’s clients. (source: Exame magazine’s Maiores e Melhores de julho de 2006 – Biggest and Best List, July 2006).

Finally, emphasis should also be given to the user-friendly nature of the Bradesco Saúde Portal (www.bradescosaude.com.br), which, in addition to providing information on available products, also offers access to a number of services for the insured, prospects and brokers.

Until August 2006, Bradesco maintained an outstanding position among the main insurance companies in the Brazilian Basic Line (RE) Insurance market, with an 8.2% share of total market sales in this area.

In the Asset Risks segment, Bradesco Auto/RE insures the assets of a significant number of large companies of the country related to the home-building, steel, petrochemical, pulp and paper, aircraft, automotive and food sectors by means of issuances of insurance policies for Operational Risks, Named, Oil, Port Operator, Civil Liability, Engineering Risks, (Domestic and International) Transport, Hull and Aircraft.

In the area of Domestic and International Transport insurance, from the implementation of several visits to clients of the segments Corporate and Companies, mainly in the south, mid-west and southeast, we got more trading frequency with some important corporate groups.

We also point out that the relation of Bradesco Auto/RE with Bradesco Corporate and Bradesco Empresas (Middle Market), including with own structure, has allowed greater closeness with Bradesco’s clients and enabled the achievement and renew of policies of large companies installed in the country.

In the mass market insurance segment, whose products are focused on individuals, small and medium-sized (SME’s) companies, we maintained a meaningful number of customers, in particular those of the Residential Insurance line.

Another high profitability segment was the Diverse Risks directed to equipment, mainly the insurance arising from operations of leasing, FINAME and CDC of Banco Bradesco.

The continuous upgrading of products provides the improvement of the services rendered to our clients and contributed significantly for the increase in income of the current period.

In the Auto/RCF line, the market was characterized by intense competition in big metropolitan areas, aggravated by a small growth in insured vehicle market.

During the period, we maintained our technically correct pricing policy, with a view to reaching a balanced portfolio results. We consolidated our pricing policy based on the insured specific characteristics, after one year it was launched. We also maintained differentiated services, which add value to our products, such as discounts given through the nationwide customer service networks and auto glass repair, as well as the increase in the number of electronic relationships with brokers and those insured, which are carried out via the Internet.

Bradesco’s market share of the Auto/RCF portfolio, up to August, 2006 was 15.6% .

Bradesco Capitalização’s outstanding position in the certificated savings plans market is the result of its transparent operating policy, which is focused on adjusting its products in line with potential consumer demand.

Regionally, the company holds a leadership position in two Brazilian states, according to the latest figures for August 2006 published by SUSEP. The company’s market share was of 29.65% in Amazonas and 37.35% in São Paulo.

In pursuit of a bond which is suited to its customers’ different profiles and budgets, a number of products were developed, which vary in accordance with the type of payment (single or monthly), contribution terms, regularity of draws and related prize amounts. This phase was important due to the closeness to the public, by means of the consolidation of “Pé Quente Bradesco” family products.

We can highlight the performance of products with a social-environmental character such as Pé Quente

Bradesco SOS Mata Atlântica which, in addition to enabling the formation of a financial reserve, contributes for reforestation projects of Fundação SOS Mata Atlântica and Pé Quente Bradesco GP Ayrton Senna, launched in July 2005, whose great differential is the destination of a percentage of the amount collected with securities to social projects of Instituto Ayrton Senna. Thus, in addition to competing for prizes, the product allows the client to help to develop the potential of new generations and participate in the construction of a better Brazil. As the most recent Company’s launching, we can highlight the Pé Quente Bradesco o Câncer de Mama no Alvo da Moda (the Breast Cancer in the Fashion Target), launched in March 2006. Upon acquiring this product, the client contributes to the development of projects of prevention, precocious diagnosis and treatment of cancer in Brazil, for a part of the amount collected is given to IBCC – Brazilian Institute of Cancer Control.

Rating 
 

Standard & Poor’s increased the rating from brAA to brAA+ of Bradesco Capitalização, the only company of the certificated savings plans segment with this rating. The solid financial and equity protection standard that Bradesco Capitalização ensures to its clients contributed to the result.

The share of balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts on Loan and Leasing Operations, in September 2006, was 4.92%, above the 3.26% reached in the same period of 2005, due to the larger share of products of Personal Loan and Other Assets and Services in the portfolio composition, to the market behavior in the first nine months of 2006 and to the provision criterion of the Organization, more conservative and above the minimum required by BACEN which grants a higher coverage level to the investment of Stockholders.

In the 3rd quarter of 2006, a stabilization in the provision curve was observed.

In the accumulated nine months of 2006, the Bank reached an Adjusdted Net Income of R$186.701 million against the R$206.198 million recorded in the same period of 2005, which considers:

– the impact of strong investments made in acquisitions and physical expansion in the last 15 months, which naturally provided a return in the medium and long term; and

110


– the increase in delinquency in a generalized way in the market in the 9 months of 2006, jointly with the criterion already mentioned of the Organization concerning additional provisions.

The corporate result, in this same period, was R$28.797 million, which considers the full amortization of goodwill in the acquisition of the companies Zogbi and Morada.

Operating Overview 
 

Bradesco Consórcios on December 9, 2002 started to sell consortium purchase plan quotas to its employees, and on January 21, 2003, started to sell to its account holders and non-account holders, both for individuals and corporations.

Bradesco Consórcios sells automobile, trucks, tractors, agricultural implements and real properties plans, according to the rules of Brazilian Central Bank.

113


Referring to the sale of plans offered, the Company relies on the Banco Bradesco Branches network, liable for higher Bradesco Consórcios share in the consortium purchase plan market. The extensive nature and security associated with the Bradesco Brand name are added advantages for expanding consortium purchase plan sales.

Segmentation 
 

The Banco Bradesco’s entry into this market is part of its strategy to offer the most complete range of product and services options to its clients, with a view to providing all social classes with the opportunity to purchase items at accessible prices through the consortium quota system, and filling a market lacuna, especially taking into account that, in relation to real estate product, there is currently high housing deficit in country.

Operating Performance 
 

The different way of negotiation of products (Real State, Automobiles and Trucks), with a specialized and focused team, provided Bradesco Consórcios with a growth of 114.8% in the first 9 months of 2006 when compared to the same period of the previous year.

Operating Risk 
 

Bradesco Consórcios and DGRC (Department of Risk Management and Compliance) started in February 2005 the works related to the identification and collection of operating losses. Accounting accounts specific for accounting of losses resulting from operating risk events were opened.

We understand that these actions meet the concepts introduced by the New Basel Capital Agreement, and this work aims to establish a statistic basis for modeling of the operating risk, with the purpose of lower allocation of capital required, as well as increase the mitigation capacity of risks identified.

Market Share – Automobile Consortium – in percentage 
 


Bradesco has been playing an important role in the consortium purchase plan industry, enabling to the population access to loan for the acquisition of personal and real property. The freedom to select an asset is one of the main characteristics of the plans sold by Bradesco Consórcios, since the consortium member is free to select a preferred automobile or real property when he/she wins the draw.

In 3Q06, 58 groups were inaugurated and 31.2 thousand consortium quotas were sold. On September 30, we recorded total accumulated sales exceeding 270.9 thousand consortium quotas, summing up sales exceeding R$8.3 billion and recording 85.8 thousand draws, 65.5 thousand properties delivered and 1,384 active groups.

– commitment to self-development;
– adherence to strategic guidelines;
– creativity, flexibility and initiative; and
– agile customer delivery.

Background and Achievements 
 

The Corporate Banking segment was introduced in 1999, designed to serve companies from its target market based on a customer, rather than product standpoint, under a centralized relations management, offering as well as traditional products, structured, Tailor-made and Capital Markets solutions, through specific Managers who have a clear vision of risk, market, economic industries and relationship.

Among the various significant achievements obtained, we point out the ISO 9001:2000 quality certification received by all areas of the Corporate Banking structure, including its Corporate Banking exclusive customer service platforms, as well as the partnerships entered into with international banks: UFJ – Japan, BBVA – Spain and BES – Portugal.

Brazilian Desk

Bradesco was the first Brazilian bank to carry out an operating agreement with a Japanese bank allowing the inclusion of approximately 300 thousand Brazilians living and working in Japan.

This partnership between the different professionals from the two Banks, which was carried out during two years, offers checking accounts, products and services destined to meet the needs of this community.

Customers have access to an exclusive UFJ-Bradesco Branch 7-days-a-week with bilingual (Japanese and Portuguese) employees who answer via Automated Consulting and Contract Machines – ACMs, which are fully integrated with the UFJ Branch Network, for local bank services and remittances to Brazil.

127



These facilities are also available via 6,000 ATMs with screens in Portuguese, offering ease and convenience to customers.

Such operational agreement sets forth a strategic alliance between Bradesco and the UFJ Bank, which after its merger with Banco Tokyo Mitsubishi as from January 1, 2006, became the world's largest bank: Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi-UFJ (MUFG).

BES

The partnership with Banco Espírito Santo (BES) to provide for funds remittance services from Portugal to Brazil directly benefits more than 100 thousand Brazilians living and working in that Country.

Besides processing the remittance service, the agreement also provides for the opening of checking accounts of Brazilians, allowing their banking inclusion. The opening of checking accounts gives access to various financial products, such as debit card, savings accounts and life insurance.

The funds remittance from Brazilians working in Portugal represents nearly 300 million Euros per year. Brazilians using the remittance service offered by the partnership Bradesco/BES have competitive cost and more processing alternatives, such as the Internet and 10 thousand ATMs, besides the telephone and the Internet Banking. Inflow of funds occurs and these will be distributed to the beneficiaries in Brazil by Bradesco.

Another example of a solution with significant added value for the Institution are the partnerships entered into with major retail networks for consumer sales financing, made feasible as a result of the relationship and familiarity with this industry's production chain and the synergy which exists among the Bank's various segments.

The resources comprising assets (credit, bonds and guarantees) and liabilities (deposits, funds and portfolios) amount to R$79.9 billion.

Risk Management and Compliance 
 

Credit Risks, Operational Risks, Market Risks, Internal Controls and Compliance 
 

Activity and Structure 
 

The risk management activity plays a significant role, not only as a result of a growing complexity of services and products offered by the Organization, but also in view of the globalization of its activities. Therefore, Bradesco has improved its risk management-related activities, in pursuit of the best internationally used practices, however duly adjusted to Brazil’s reality.

Bradesco deems the risk management a generating factor of competitive advantage employed by the Organization with a view to adding value to Bradesco Brand, to the extent this enables support to the business areas in the planning of their activities, optimizing the utilization of own funds and of third parties, in benefit of stockholders and the company. In this regard, Bradesco foments the technical improvement of its team on a permanent basis and particularly, the professionalization of those connected with the risk management and control.

The organizational structure of the Risk Management and Compliance Department – DGRC reflects the Organization’s commitment to the issue, once the integration of three risks into one independent Department brings great advantages to risk management, meeting the concepts enacted by the New Capital Accord (Basel II) and the best Corporate Governance practices.

Organizational Structure of the Risk Management and Compliance Department: 
 


The structure of the Risk Management and Compliance Department also aims at ensuring the necessary focus to such activities and generate a solid added value. Robust investments are made, especially in the qualification of employees, to enhance the quality of risk management of the Conglomerate, not restricted to the banking activities, but on the contrary, extended with the same relevance to the other activities of the Organization.

Additionally, the Risk Management and Compliance Department coordinates all the actions necessary to comply with the regulations issued by the Brazilian Central Bank, as regards the New Capital Accord (Basel II). These works are directed by an Executive Committee designated by the Board of Directors, under the coordination of the Organization’s President.

The Department also has as attribution the responsibility for the compliance with the Resolution # 2,554 of the Brazilian Central Bank (Internal Controls) and with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Section 404.

140



Risk Management Process 
 

Bradesco adopts a comprehensive and integrated approach for managing all risks inherent to its activities, based on the support from its Internal Controls and Compliance structure. This integrated view allows the improvement of its risk management models, filling possible gaps, which could jeopardize the correct identification and assessment.


Credit Risk Management 
 

Credit Risk is the possibility of a counterparty of a loan or financial operation might neither intend nor suffer any change in its ability to comply with its contractual liabilities, thus may generate any loss for the Organization.

As part of its Credit Risk Management improvement process, Bradesco is working uninterruptedly to improve the procedures for gathering and controlling portfolio information, developing and improving loss estimation models to examine and prepare the rating inventories used in the follow-up of credit analysis, granting and settlement processes, monitoring credit concentration and identifying new components offering credit risks and preparing risk mitigation strategies.

Efforts, which are focused on the utilization of advanced models, used to assess the risks and improve processes, have demanded exhaustive works by all areas comprising the loan chain, and on the other hand, have reflected on the quality and performance of the portfolio seen over the past quarters, both in terms of results and solidity to various past and future scenarios.

We also point out the following actions and events:

– The Executive Committee of Credit Risk Management holds a monthly meeting, enabling the follow-up and the participation of the Top Management in the major facts and decisions referring to credit risk;

– incentives to improve risk rating models of clients within particular characteristics in the business segments Bradesco operates;

– participation in the evaluation of credit risks upon review of formalization of products;

– implementation of expected and unexpected losses calculation system, besides the allocation of corresponding capital;

– a periodical review of projects related to the compliance with best practices and requirements of New Capital Basel Accord, by monitoring actions in progress and identifying new gaps and needs emerged for the improvement of management process, preparing action plans;

– backtesting of the models used for measuring loan portfolio’s risks;

– optimization of the manageable information systems in order to meet the current approach of department and customers’ segmentation, emphasizing decision-making process and loan portfolio’s management;

141


– follow-up of critical risks: periodical monitoring of the main events of default, by means of individual analysis based on the growth of clients’ balances and recovery estimates; and

– continuous review and restructuring of the internal processes, including roles and responsibilities, qualification, organizational structures review and IT demands.

Operational Risk Management 
 

Under the corporate scope, Bradesco Organization defines operational risk as a manifestation of events resulting in the business interruption, systems failure, errors, omissions, frauds, or events in various activities, with impacts over clients and the Institution.

The operational risk management is based on the preparation and implementation of methodologies, using a standardization specific system of collection format and treatment of operating loss historical data and is aligned to best practices of operational risk management. We point out that we are under the conditions to meeting the guidelines enacted by the New Capital Basel Accord and to the schedule set forth by the Brazilian Central Bank, by means of Notice #12,746, issued in December 2004.

The National Monetary Council issued by means of the Central Bank on June 29, 2006 the Resolution 3380 which provides for the implementation of the operational risk management structure. Since 2003, the Bank is fully aligned with this guidance about operational risk management in all Bradesco Organization.

We have been conducting quarterly theoretical calculations of operational risk capital allocation, using the Basic Indicator Approach (BIA), Standardized Approach (STA) and the Alternative Standardized Approach (ASA), as defined by Basel II and Notice 12,746 of the Brazilian Central Bank. Through such studies, we verified a lower utilization of capital with the Alternative Approach (ASA), when compared to the others, according to the table below:

Participation among Approaches in the Calculation of Capital Allocation for Operational Risk 
 

Approach    3Q06 (*)
   
Basic Indicator (BIA)   100.0% 
Standardized (STA)   94.7% 
Alternative Standardized (ASA)   55.1% 
(*) Calculated according to the Brazilian Central Bank criteria, considering the Financial Consolidated. 

In 2005, Bradesco concluded an exhaustive process of reviewing the corporate accounts plan, which included the review of the Organization’s products and services. As a result of such work, Bradesco opened specific accounting items, improved the records and the analysis of events related to operational risk, by also resulting in the improvement of internal processes, associating them to the lines of business enacted by Basel II, which on their turn, are aligned to the concepts used in the credit risk management.

Aiming at synergy and rationalization of resources, an identical work is also under development in the Insurance Group. These efforts focus on the convergence of implementation of concepts of Basel II and Solvability II, concerning the knowledge and development of the advanced (operating losses) and intermediate (based on gross result) methodology for unification of the criteria within Bradesco Organization, in conformity with Resolution 3380 in terms of financial economic consolidated.

142


In addition, in the 1st half of 2006 we maintained efforts to identify operational losses occurred with loan instruments, by observing the concepts of Basel II, and solid results in the Retail Segment‘s businesses.

Bradesco Organization’s goal is to obtain qualification for the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA). The data to prepare the calculations required are obtained by means of book accounts opened for registration of Operational Risk loss events. This structure enables a better understanding of the events, as well as a detailed evaluation of their occurrences by means of inferences about the operational data base.

When determining the regulatory capital for Operational Risk, by the Advanced Methodology, we measure the expected losses (EL), not only in compliance with Basel II rules, but also an assistance for the establishment of operational losses provisions necessary with statistical assistance.

Those losses not classified as expected (EL), i.e., the unexpected losses (UL) are calculated by using the LDA (Loss Distribution Approach) methodology, which comprises the estimate of distribution of severity (loss amount), frequency (number of losses events) and the calculation of VaR (Value at Risk), which represents a maximum loss with 99.9% of chance of occurring. Therefore, we consider as unexpected loss (UL), the difference obtained between the expected loss and the VaR measure, which will reflect on future capital allocations.

In addition, a new systemic business platform is under validation process, which will integrate into a single data base, the Operational Risk and Internal Controls information (quantitative and qualitative portion of the risk), and will comprise the requirements set forth by the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Market Risk Management 
 

Market risk is related to the possibility of the loss of income from fluctuating rates caused by mismatched maturities, currencies and indexes of the Institution's asset and liability portfolios. This risk has been accompanied by growing strictness by the market, with significant technical evolvement over the past years, with a view to avoiding, or at least, minimizing, eventual losses to institutions, due to higher complexity in operations carried out domestically and internationally.

At Bradesco, market risks are managed through methodologies and models, which are consistent with local and international market realities, ensuring that the Organization's strategic decisions are implemented with speed and a high level of reliability.

The Organization adopts a conservative policy regarding market risk exposure; VaR (Value at Risk) limits are defined by Senior Management, and compliance therewith is daily monitored by an independent area to the portfolio management. The methodology used to determine VaR has a reliability level of 97.5% . The volatilities and correlations used by the models are calculated on a statistical basis and used in processes based on future prospects in accordance with economic studies. The methodology applied and current statistical models are validated daily using backtesting techniques.

Investments abroad protected by hedge operations are not considered in the VaR calculation, since these are strategically managed differently, with amounts taking into account the tax effects, which minimize the sensitivity to risks and corresponding impacts on results, as well as foreign securities positions, which are funding-matched.

Besides the follow-up and control via VaR, a Sensitivity Analysis is made daily, which measures the effect on domestic interest rate curve portfolio

and exchange coupon curve movement (differential of interest paid above the exchange variation), as well as possible impacts on stress scenarios positions are periodically assessed.

Complementing the market risk monitoring, control and management structure and in accordance with Central Bank regulations, a daily verification is made of the values at risk for the pre-fixed and foreign exchange positions of the Organization's entire portfolio and of remaining capital requirements.

Management of Internal Controls and Compliance
 
The Organization is continually developing policies, systems and internal controls to mitigate possible potential losses generated by its exposure to risk, destined to optimize processes and procedures, among which we point out the following:

Internal Control System based on 25 Basel Internal Control Principles and in the methodology of Committee of Sponsoring Organizations – COSO, in

the businesses areas, referring to control environment components, risk assessment, control activities, information, communication and monitoring and Control Objectives for Information and related Technology – COBIT, for the information technology areas. This system reinforces the ongoing improvement in the identification process and assessment of controls used in risks mitigation, also in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Section 404.

– SPB Management – Brazilian Payment System, has the purpose of ensuring the execution of the messages among the Banks of the Organization and all the entities participating in this system. The activity is supported by monitoring tools of the Organization’s information systems, aligned with the continuous training and professional qualification, with the purpose of ensuring full operationality and availability of the system. Additionally, the Organization has a PCN –Operational Continuity Plan for SPB, documented in a specific tool and with corporate access, comprising predefined scenarios and actions, which enables the reduction of systemic unavailability risk.The areas involved in the process also count on a physical environment located in Alphaville, for operational continuity of the SPB processes, in the occurrence of a possible claim (fire, landslide, strike etc.), in the facilities of the Headquarters or Nova Central, which hinder the performance of activities. PCN – SPB is continuously tested and the evidences are published in standard reports disclosed in our corporate intranet.

Liquidity Risk Management 
 

Liquidity risk management is designed to control the different mismatched settlement terms of the Institution's rights and obligations, as well as the liquidity of the financial instruments used to manage the financial positions.

Knowledge and monitoring of this risk are critical since they enable the Organization to settle transactions on a timely and secure manner.

At Bradesco, liquidity risk management involves a series of controls, mainly with respect to the establishment of technical limits, with constant assessment of the positions assumed and the financial instruments used.

Capital Risk Management 
 

The Organization's capital is managed to optimize the risk to return ratio, in such a way to minimize losses through the implementation of well-defined business strategies and maximizing efficiency in the combination of factors which impact on the Capital Adequacy Ratio (Basel).

Loan Policy 
 

The Organization's Loan Policy complies with resolutions of the Board of Executive Officers and Brazilian Central Bank, besides guiding their actions by goals of security, quality, liquidity and diversification in the assets utilization.

In a continuous search to offer agile and profitable business, we apply appropriate methodology directed to each Bradesco’s business segment, as well as guiding the establishment of operating limits and the granting of loan operations.

Within rules and Loan Policy, the Branches maintain their limit values variable, according to the size and guarantees of operations, and the automatic classification is verified against global risk of client/ economic group.

The loan proposals pass through an automated system and under parameters in a continuous improvement process, with a view to supplying indispensable subsidies for analysis, granting and follow-up of loans granted, minimizing the risks inherent to loan operations.

For the granting of mass loan, the specialized Credit Scoring systems enable to attain greater agility and reliability, besides the standardization of procedures in the credit analysis and granting processes.

The Executive Loan Committee located at Bradesco's Headquarters aims at joint decision-making processes within its skills referring to consultations about limits or operations proposed by the Branches (Prime, Private, Varejo (Retail) and Corporate) and by

147


the Departments (Corporate and Exchange), including External Branches, previously analyzed and with opinion of the Loan Department.

Operations are diversified, non-selective and focused on individuals and corporate customers with sound payment capacity and proven creditworthiness. Care is taken to ensure that the underlying guarantees are sufficient to cover the risks assumed, considering the purpose and terms of the loan granted.


Methodology Used for Loan Portfolio and Client Classification 
 

The credit risk assessment methodology, besides delivering data to establish minimum parameters in the loan granting and risk management, also enables to define differentiated loan policies in view of characteristics and size of client, providing grounds not only for the correct pricing of operations, but also the definition of adequate guarantees according to each situation.

Concerning the internal policy, the risk ratings of Bradesco’s clients are given on a corporate basis and periodically followed-up, with a view to preserving the quality of loan portfolio, according to the following levels:

Classification – Corporate 
 

Rating    Bradesco    % Provision    Concept 
       
AA    Excellent    0.0   
Premium clients, with size, tradition and market leadership, with excellent reputation and economic and financial position. 
     
  Very good    0.5   
Clients with size, sound economic and financial position, operating in markets with good prospects and/or potential for expansion. 
     
  Good    1.0 
 
Clients, which, regardless of size, have a good economic and financial position. 
     
  Acceptable    3.0   
Clients with a satisfactory economic and financial position but with performance sensitive to economic scenario variations. 
     
  Fair    10.0   
Clients with economic and financial position in decline or unsatisfactory accounting information, under risk management. 
     
  Deficient    30.0   
Loan operations with any expectation of not being paid or in default, classified under the possibility of loss. 
  Bad    50.0   
  Critical    70.0   
  Uncollectible    100.0   

In the case of individuals, the risk ratings mentioned above are mainly defined based on their registered reference variables which include: income, equity, restrictions and indebtedness, besides standard and past relationship with Bradesco.

This methodology is designed to codify and standardize processes mapping and documentation works carried out by the Organization's different departments on a stage-by-stage basis which, in conjunction with the information on related products, services and activities, ensures that these processes are effectively analyzed, in the pursuit for ongoing improvement, as well as meeting the demand generated by the needs of the documentation required by the Internal Controls and Compliance System, the Bradesco Quality Management System based on the NBR ISO 9001:2000, the Activity-Based Costing System – ABC and Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Activity-Based Costing – ABC 
 

Designed to support the Bank in its actions to improve processes and optimize production resources, such as practices recommended for decreasing costs, Bradesco adopts the Activity-Based Costing System –ABC, which measures the cost and performance of its activities, resources and cost centers.

The knowledge of the Bank's activities, as well as the correct measurement of the resources consumed by these activities, allows a more accurate analysis of the cost/benefit ratio of each of the Organization's productive processes and results centers.

We stress that as a result of the application of Activity-Based Costing, the Bank is now meeting the following targets: improved allocation of costs to products, channels and customers; support to qualification studies and negotiation of bank fees; subsidy to product, unit and client profitability systems; support to studies concerning outsourcing, incorporation and equipment sharing, as well as support to cost rationalization studies.

Activity-Based Management Program 
 

Seeking to explore the potential applications of the information base of the “Activity-Based Cost”, we are to adopt a Cost Management model by means of the “Activity-Based Management” – ABM, which will rapidly lead to the prevention of costs and a proactive approach regarding the identification of opportunities.

Accordingly, as processes are improved, operating performances can be seamlessly integrated with Bradesco's strategic goals, designed to create and/or sustain Bradesco's competitive advantages and add value both for clients and stockholders.

Thus, the future mission of Activity-Based Management is to provide permanent support to the planning and control of the Bank's business processes, ensuring that tactical and operational issues are continually improved, as well as supporting their strategic gearing.

Expenses Assessment Committee
 

In the pursuit of assisting the Board of Executive Officers in cost control and the adoption of strategies, policies and measures designed to restrain expenses, in March 2004, Bradesco created the Expenses Assessment Committee, responsible for monitoring administrative and personnel expenses, as well as fixed assets, analyzing the corresponding processes with the related managing areas, seeking to obtain a maximum cost/benefit ratio.

In line with good Corporate Governance practices, the Committee is an important tool, as a result of its permanent activity and capacity to anticipate events, for improving and enhancing processes, capable of carrying out an in-depth analysis of Bradesco's costs, from all standpoints and producing savings which reflect positively on the Organization's results.

Integrated Management System – ERP 
 

For purposes of providing permanent and appropriate support for its operations and in the pursuit of improved results, as well as extending its capacity to manage the Organization's resources, Bradesco adopts one of the most modern concepts for integrating organizational processes, using SAP's Integrated Management System, mySAP Business Suite solution.

This system’s implementation represents an innovation in the treatment of the value chain supporting Bradesco's financial industry, comprising analyses dimensions focused on Processes, People, Organizational Structure and Technology.

Initially, the system will integrate processes in the Human Resources, Training, Material and Service Purchases, Accounts Payable, Physical and Fiscal Receiving, Fixed Assets and Accounting, in addition to the Availability Control process, for the effective follow-up of the Bank’s administrative expenses.

Currently, the processes of Works Management, Maintenance Manegement, Currency Management, Real Estate Management, Supplies Management (Auction and Electronic Quotation), Banking Accounting and Consolidation of Financial Statements.

The adoption of the Integrated Management system by the areas integrated through this technology enabled them to renew processes and review organizational structures and nearly 78 thousand system users will be qualified via presence and e-learning training.

As a result of the implementation of the Integrated Management System, Bradesco will benefit most from the organization and standardization of the processes carried out in different areas, agile decision-making, secure data processing, as well as decreased operating costs and increased productivity. These factors are crucial for the Organization's growth, especially in view of current financial area competition, prompting us to pursue increasingly effective management methods designed to ensure that all of Bradesco's business potential is properly leveraged.

In September 2004, Bradesco adhered to Equator Principles, a set of social-environmental measures based on criteria defined by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), used in the evaluation and concession of financing of infrastructure projects known as project finance.

Bradesco ratified, in July 2006, its adhesion to the new version of Equator Principles, whose scope comprises all project finance, its assistance, new ones or in expansion, with total capital cost higher or equal to US$10 million.

It is important to point out that the adoption of these principles is voluntary, with no dependence or support of IFC or the World Bank. Thus, the institutions which will adopt them must take them as basis for the development of practices and internal and individual policies.

Bradesco, as from December 2005, started integrating ISE, Sustainability Index of BOVESPA – São Paulo Stock Exchange.

This index was created with the purpose of providing visibility to the sustainable companies, so that investors may invest their funds.

To evaluate the performance of the companies eligible to ISE, the Sustainability Study Center of FGV-EAESP was contracted and developed a questionnaire with the triple bottom line concept, which comprises the evaluation of economic, social and environmental elements in an integrated way.

Social Stock Exchange Program of BOVESPA 
 

Aiming at the social and banking inclusion, Bradesco collaborates with the Social Stock Exchange Program of BOVESPA, which was launched in June 2003 by BOVESPA and its brokers as a social initiative to raise funds for non-governmental organizations, acknowledged by UNESCO as the first one in the world. The idea is to gather institutions of the Third Sector that need financial resources and investors (donors) willing to provide them. Thus, the NGOs strengthen “investments” as “social profit”, i.e. making society fairer, where thousands of children and youngsters may enjoy better opportunities.

ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 Certifications – Building 
 


In May Bradesco obtained the ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certificates for the building at Avenida Paulista, in the city of São Paulo. This is a 12-story building with three basements totally refurbished and adapted, aiming at complying with all the specifications and rules required for the referred certificates.

Bradesco’s Contribution to Preserve the Environment 
 

Aware of the need of maintaining adequate facilities, without disregarding the social and environmental aspects, Bradesco has adopted practical measures contributing to preserve the environment.

In this regard, we permanently seek to apply new technologies minimizing the impact on ecosystems. In addition, the contracted companies’ commitment to our social and environmental goal and a continued awareness of our staff in pursuit of eco-efficiency, reinforces our commitment to foment sustainability. Below, we present some measures already adopted or under implementation.

1) Resources consumption rationalization

With a view to rationing electricity and water consumption, we destined an area to manage the consumption of these strategic resources. Its attributions consist of managing agreements of demand for electricity with the concessionaires and permanent research of efficient and intelligent new technologies for our equipment, observing the environment preservation policy.

The Branches Network awareness about this issue has been deserved continual attention by indicating consumption targets for our units, based on size, quantity of equipment installed and headcount, as well as release of articles about the rational use of electricity and water.

172


a. Electricity

Timing machines were installed in our premises for the automatic turning-off of lamps and lights, allowing an easy utilization at scheduled hours. The turning-off of illuminations, non-used areas, and the employment of natural light have been encouraged.

Similar care is adopted in the acquisition and installation of air-conditioning systems, such as thermo-accumulation devices, which reduce the energy consumption in peak hours, and water treatment in its towers, without using chemical products.

We recommend the optimization in the use of lifts and air conditioning, as well as in the use of other energy consuming equipment.

The replacement of 50% of 255 mercury lamps by other sodium steam lamps, in 178 posts installed on the streets of Cidade de Deus (headquarters), and the exchange over the past 3 years of approximately 30,000 40 Watts lamps for 32 Watts has substantially reduced the energy consumption, without loosing the lighting efficiency.

b. Water

Same concern is expressed as to the rational use of water. Thus, our Premises are periodically guided concerning the monthly follow-up of consumption and maintenance aiming at correcting possible leakage in valves, flushings and faucets. In addition, technical measures contributing to the water consumption reduction have been adopted, for instance, the replacement of mechanical faucets with automatic ones for use at headquarters premises.

The adequate garden watering, observing the best hour and periodicity, has also been deserved attention. There is a feasibility study related to the reuse of water that comes from the partial sewage treatment generated at headquarters, with the purpose of watering and usage in the air conditioning towers.

2) Solid Residues Destination

a. Solid Residues derived from Civil Works

Concerned with the impact on environment caused by residues produced in site office (debris, wood, plastic, metal etc.), all contracted construction companies undertake to comply with Resolution 307, of the Environment National Council concerning the correct destination of residues, upon refurbishments and alterations in layouts of our premises. Referring to the maintenance of buildings at the headquarters and Avenida Paulista, the agreements were added with a specific clause on the correct destination of painting residues (inks, glue, paint brush used etc.)

This responsibility includes the submission of a document recording that residues were deposited in licensed landfills, in the cities served thereby.

b. Paper and Cardboard

Currently, approximately 100 tons of paper and cardboard are collected monthly in some of our administrative centers, which are submitted to a selective process. It has been examined the possibility of its implementation in other regions. Methods to assess the quantity of paper consumed by the Organization is under study, both office paper and forms, with a view to knowing which are the possible measures that may be adopted aiming at reducing such consumption.

c. Metal, Glass and Plastics

At the headquarters and in four other administrative centers the selective collection of metal, glass and plastics is implemented. This practice has been encouraged and improved by means of in-house campaigns and actions, in the expectation of increasing to other centers, as well as to increase the quantity of recycled products. In order to improve our concern in this regard, we have been using at the headquarters and main administrative centers biodegradable plastic bags with colors corresponding to waste collected.

173


The expansion to the other facilities is in the final implementation stage.

A measure adopted nearly 4 years ago is the utilization of remanufactured cartridges as consumption items for our premises, aiming besides cost savings, the benefits of reducing pollution. Out of the 51 types of toner cartridges composing our consumption list, 34 are remanufactured products.

d. Lamps

We have more than 36 thousand lamps at our headquarters buildings and monthly more than 600 lamps are replaced. Concerned with the appropriate destination of this material, the maintenance agreements contain an specific clause about the service company’s obligation to conduct the ecologically correct discard.

e. Other residues

At Cidade de Deus, our headquarters, we maintain approximately 115,000 m2 of green area, with more than 3 thousand trees cataloged under the replacement and planting program. We have been using equipment for grind of dried leaves, which are used in gardening, totaling nearly 1.5 tonne/month. We have also been reintegrating the parings of grass to the soil as input.

3) Recycled Paper Usage Program

Now we hold a special initiative, whether due to its dimension and comprehensiveness, or due to a positive standing towards the environment preservation: Recycled Paper Usage Program at Bradesco Organization.

This Program, a result of Bradesco’s belief that it is able to highly contributing to disseminate theory and practice of environmental responsibility, has been implemented gradually in our Organization. The option to use Recycled Paper was made after long negotiations with suppliers, and even if it does not mean costs optimization, we are aware that the result will be beneficial for the environmental. Recycled paper is used in the production of internal and external communication material, such as posters, magazines, business cards and statements distributed to clients and in check books.

4) Biodegradable Products for Cleaning

At Bradesco’s headquarters, the Company started the cleaning and maintenance services by using biodegradable products. Contracted companies are being encouraged to use products of such type, which then will be one of the requirements to be considered in a further agreement renewal. Such measure integrates an improvement program seeking to standardize the biodegradable products, the appropriate dilution, in conformity with the manufacturer’s guidance and the obligation to present information about chemical products applied in our premises.

Bradesco’s Contributions to Social Issues 
 
 
Finasa Sports Program 
 

Bradesco Organization demonstrates its support to sports activities through the FINASA ESPORTES (Finasa sports) program, successor of the BCN Sports Program. This initiative, with more than 18 years of activity, gained momentum as from 1997, following its integration with Bradesco's other social projects. Along its history, the program was known by its seriousness and has become a benchmark for assistance in the education of young people, using volleyball and basketball as instruments for social inclusion. At present, 2,800 girls from 9 to 17 years of age, enrolled at school and attending classes on a regular basis are included in the program. Approximately 70% of these girls derive from deprived backgrounds and are considered to be in a social risk situation.

Presently, FINASA ESPORTES, in accordance with its new concept, is structured in 51 training centers, which comprise a total of 138 classes, consisting of 69 classes for sports initiation practice, 20 for basketball and 49 for volleyball, installed on the premises of state and local schools, at Osasco's city hall sports centers, at Fundação Bradesco school, at a SESI unit and at three private schools, all located in

174


the municipality of Osasco, in Greater São Paulo. Acting in partnership with the local government, Bradesco Organization offers a full support structure which includes the supply of sports and learning materials, as well as a team of more than 73 professional instructors, including local and state coordinators and teachers.

The community integration has been the outstanding feature of this work. The PROGRAM is designed to transform sports practice into a powerful tool for strengthening the ties with citizenship values. At the FINASA ESPORTES training centers, 2 classes every week are dedicated to counseling on various topics, such as notions of hygiene, teen pregnancy, stress, drug abuse and adolescence, always emphasizing the importance of team spirit.

The training centers are also used to disseminate values that favor healthy living in society, including respect for others, union, dedication, persistence and excellence. Classes also stress the importance of having a positive and participative attitude, emphasizing the need to foster activities related to the recycling of materials, the rational use of water and electricity and the promotion of campaigns related to social issues, such as collecting donations in food and clothing.

The FINASA ESPORTES program considers the sports practice much more than a way to discover vocations or create athletes, it also lays the basis for the formation of citizens, who are the essence of a better country for everyone.

Social-cultural Events 
 

In the 3rd quarter of 2006, Bradesco decisively collaborated for the cultural enrichment of the Brazilian society supporting several projects throughout Brazil. It sponsored the coming of the Canadian group Cirque du Soleil to the Country, the world’s most important and respected circus. For the first time in Brazil, the troupe presented to the Brazilian audience the spectacle Saltimbanco, already seen by more than 9 million people in 19 countries. During the quarter, more than 250 thousand people saw the spectacle only in São Paulo.

For the second consecutive year, by means of Bradesco Prime, it sponsored the 37th Winter Festival of Campos do Jordão, in the countryside of São Paulo. During the event there was a performance of Students from Fundação Bradesco School of Osasco-SP.

Human Resources

The Company offers its employees ongoing professional development opportunities, in a healthy, safe and ethical environment, with transparent commitments and goals.

Bradesco believes in its ability to promote a sustained growth for people and through these people.

The Company seeks to maintain an excellence model in Human Resources Management, guided by respect and transparency in its relations, continuous development investment, sharing of information and human being value, without discrimination.

Bradesco maintains a closed-career policy, whereby the admission occurs at apprentice levels. All the growth opportunities are destined to employees, allowing access to all hierarchical levels.

175


This assurance of opportunity for professional development and growth, where employees see the possibility of holding all the positions, not only the positions of managers, but also the high management, is a motivational factor for all the staff, stimulating creativity, innovation and the ceaseless search for knowledge and updating.

We may say that when a youngster joins our Organization, whose closed carrier system privileges, incentives and strongly invests in the growth and development of its employees, this professional starts a carrier full of opportunities, connected with his/her effort and dedication.

To encourage our professionals to exceed their limits and stimulate their creativity in search for solutions, aiming at self satisfaction, clients’ satisfaction and business expansion, have been a priority for the Bank and is one of the assumptions of our Human Resources Management Policy, established in 2005, by the Board of Directors.

Only creative and innovative teams, highly skilled, with ensured carrier opportunities, could surpass the achievement of goals and show excellent results that have highlighted our Organization.

Bradesco’s performance is disseminated and is continuously expanded throughout the country, enabling job opportunities in all the operation segments.

Bradesco is a bank which takes into account, by means of its clients and partners, the diversity which is the own expression of the Brazilian social structure, with a fundamental commitment to respecting cultural and ethnical diversity. The respect to the Brazilian diversity is part of the Company’s strategic vision towards good performance, since Bradesco is inserted throughout the Brazilian territory.

Certification in International Rules 
 

Searching for what is best done in the worldwide level, we achieved the certification of Rule OHSAS 18001 of Occupational Safety and Health which allows to establish and develop conditions that contribute to a safe and healthy work environment.

Great Place to Work 
 

Bradesco’s employees contribute to the achievement of the outstanding position we hold in the financial market, maintaining the excellence in all group’s activities.

The Company seeks to promote transparency, so that to ensure a motivating and challenging organizational environment. Evidence is that Bradesco was listed for the seventh time in Guia Exame-Você S/A – As Melhores Empresas para Você Trabalhar (The Best Companies to Work for).

In addition to being ranked among the 150 best companies to work in Brazil, Bradesco was also acknowledged among the 50 best companies for women to work for, for the forth consecutive year.

Guia Exame is considered the best and most comprehensive study on the work environment in Brazil. Based on employees’ opinion, the study assessed the working environment, benefits, remuneration, professional development opportunities, ethics, citizenship values and social responsibility of companies.

Bradesco was also elected one of the 100 Best Companies to Work in Brazil, in a research prepared by Great Place To Work Institute, published in a special edition of Época Magazine.

For the third consecutive year, Bradesco stood out in the survey “As Melhores na Gestão de Pessoas” (The Best Companies in People Management) of Valor Carreira magazine, edited by Valor Econômico newspaper. The selection was made by means of evaluation of companies’ internal environment, as from questionnaires and interviews with employees who gave their opinion about issues such as training, benefits, safety and work conditions, credibility, motivation, performance and development planning.

These results show the acknowledgment to our commitment not only to clients, but also to our employees. Improving talents with professional training, stimulating education and maintaining a fair and dynamic organizational structure, we try to offer conditions so that each employee can grow and build a solid career, from a relationship policy based on respect and valuation.

TreiNet – On-line Training

Bradesco reached more than 1.5 million participations in the 73 courses available, since its implementation in 2000. This year, more than 20 new titles were launched, with 221 thousand participations in financial, operational and information technology issues.

On-line training is also used in the implementation of new business or back-office tools, for example the recent implementation of SAP, which this year recorded nearly 628 thousand participations in the 27 courses made available for the use of the tool. It would not be possible to adequately train 78 thousand presence employees in the same period and the use of other distance training media, such as videotraining or even brochures, and would not allow the same results.

In English learning, on-line training has also been a differential, enabling the participation of around 1,000 employees in courses from basic to advanced level.

In partnership with Fundação Bradesco, TreiNet courses are available for clients who hold a Bradesco University Account.

Accordingly, the reach of Fundação Bradesco has been expanded yearly, increasing the number of enrolled students from 13,080 to more than 107,944 over the last twenty-five years. The schools of Fundação Bradesco run free education for Kindergarten, Primary School and High School, Continued and Preliminary Education of Workers as well as High School Technical Professional Education in IT, electronics, industry, management and agribusiness. Distance learning is also offered as part of the Youth and Adult Basic Education Equivalency programs via Teleeducation and the Virtual Classroom site.

Areas and Methods of Action 
 
 
Basic Education 
 

Basic Education comprises the Kindergarten, Elementary School (first to eight grades) and High School, comprising more than 43.61% of all students on courses provided on a free basis by Fundação Bradesco each year. In addition, the students receive free school materials, uniforms, meals and health and dental care.

Fundação Bradesco is always evaluating the contemporary learning trends and, therefore, is always bringing new challenges for learning practices so that the conclusions are spread throughout all school units and that propose ongoing interactions among them.

The schools are understood as a privileged environment for citizenship values and for regarding students as original and creative human beings, who learn through experiences in both school and society. Hence, their potential and needs to interact and reflect on the diversity of knowledge are essential.

The multi-disciplinary learning seeks to provide students with access to practical and theoretical cognitive content, based on the principle that the development process is both dialectic and constructive and that their role in learning is faced as a producer of knowledge.

On this intent, Fundação Bradesco offers various continued education opportunities to educators, including long-distance courses.

These resources have resulted in the compilation of diverse learning materials, including text books used up to the fourth grade of Primary School, Philosophy for High School and Cultural Diversity as well as other supporting materials.

Technical Professional Education 
 

Based on the commitment of offering technical professional education capable of guaranteeing to the student the continuous right to develop their skills for a fruitful and social life, Fundação Bradesco is in consonance to a new model of technical education in force in Brazil. Bradesco structured the subjects of the course, prioritizing the demands from the market and the society from a brand new perspective, offering work preparation.

High School Technical Education 
 

Based on the professional areas of Agribusiness, Management, Industry (Electronics) and Information Technology, a number of courses were developed and offered according to the specific needs of the communities in which the school units are located.

The content of these courses aims to ensure a strict relation among work, knowledge and citizenship. The final target is to bring out creative, productive and business-minded citizens, as well as showing students the importance of permanent education.

When offering to students, who arise from underprivileged backgrounds, courses whose content will facilitate their entry and re-entry into the labor market, Fundação Bradesco provides access to the emerging and fast-changing business world.

Preliminary and Continued Qualification of Workers 
 

Fundação Bradesco offers on a free of charge basis this mode of education, designed for the needs of update, qualification and re-qualification of workers with different school levels. There are more than 100 options for free courses, presenting flexible programs, in the same track of the labor market conditions, in the following professional areas: Management, Personal Image, (Fashion and Personal Beauty Care), Industry (Electrical, Electronics and Printing Technology), IT, Leisure and Social Development, Tourism and Hospitality (Tourism, Hospitality and Catering Services). In the Agribusiness Area, Fundação Bradesco offers courses which include Artificial Insemination techniques.

Youth and Adult Education 
 

These students come from different regions but often have similar life histories and comprise in their majority, workers and housewives who were unable to attend or remain at school when they were supposed to. At Fundação Bradesco, they are given adult literacy courses and graduate at both Elementary and High School levels, apply for university entry, in order to improve their employment prospects and most importantly to increase their skills.

Youth and Adult Education courses are given in two segments: Youth and Adult Literacy and Tele-education for Elementary and High School Equivalency.

The Tele-education courses are offered in the own schools of the Fundação or on the premises of the companies that have entered into operating agreements with it, with flexible timetables to suit the different work shifts, once the classrooms are taken up to the companies, respecting the different working hours and avoiding the need for students to travel to the school units. Another reason for the good performance is related to the investments made by Fundação Bradesco in learning technology resources.

Developed for the parents of students who attend the schools of Fundação Bradesco, the Adult Literacy Course is structured around a socio-constructive concept, whereby the student becomes an active subject in the learning process. The topics addressed during classes awake the interests and motivate learners, guaranteeing the success of the course.

The main purpose of the Fundação Bradesco is to prepare students to improve their life conditions, based on the acquisition of organized knowledge, since according to Bradesco’s philosophy education alone is capable of forming citizens who are participative and aware of their role in society.

Material Facts 
 

A partnership was entered into between Fundação Bradesco and Bovespa, to offer Educar Bovespa Program, whose goal is to enable students to ponder about financial, school and family education, relating them to the theme “Work and Consumption” in Basic Education and with Financial Management in High School Technical Professional Education, making possible the development of citizenship in a conscious and critical way and the preparation of personal and economic improvement plans.

A total of 36,500 students from Elementary to High School and High School Technical Professional Education will be assisted.

Fundação Bradesco sponsored Expo T&C (Technology and Science Exposition), an event which took place simultaneously with the 58th SBPC Annual Meeting. Works from schools of Laguna/SC, Maceió/AL, Osasco Unit I and Teresina/PI were shown in Florianópolis/SC.

The School Unit of Conceição do Araguaia-PA placed the Social Forum “The UN and the Indigenous People” during the II Indigenous Traditional Games of Pará. The event was aimed at discussing matters related to Digital Inclusion, Human Rights, Environment, Cultural Identity, and others.

Five nurseries for the production of seedlings from the atlantics forest were inaugurated in the schools of Gravataí-RS, João Pessoa-PB, Laguna-SC, Maceió-AL and Paranavaí-PR, adding up to those already built in Osasco-SP, Registro-SP, Campinas-SP, Marília-SP and Vila Velha-ES. Teachers and students of Fundação Bradesco received technical qualification from Fundação SOS Mata Atlântica for the management of the species and promotion of environmental education and reforestation actions in partnership with local social actors.

The Board of Executive Officers of Fundação Bradesco participated in the official launch of Everybody for Education Commitment at Museu do Ipiranga, in São Paulo, which counted on the presence of political, corporate and third-sector leaderships.

The event also counted on the participation of the Choir from Fundação Bradesco Osasco Unit I/SP.

The purpose of the commitment is to move the population and encourage it to reclaim a improvement in the quality of education in the country, from the fact that nowadays school for everybody still does not mean education for everybody and from the principle that every person must play his/her part - in an integrated and synergic manner - so that until 2022, two hundred years after Brazil’s Independence, every child and youngster have a quality education.

The Conference “If life goes through changes, school must also change” with Domenico de Masi, Work Sociology teacher at University of Rome, highlighted the celebration of the 50 years of Fundação Bradesco, gathering officers and employees from Fundação Bradesco, businessmen and managers from social and educational organizations.

Management Report 
 

Dear Stockholders,

We are pleased to present the Consolidated Financial Statements of Banco Bradesco S.A. for the period ended September 30, 2006, pursuant to the Brazilian Corporate Law.

Among the material events in the period at Bradesco Organization, we point out the following:

From January 1 to September 30 2006, Bradesco recorded a Net Income of R$3.351 billion, impacted by the advanced amortization of existing goodwill, net of taxes, in the total of R$1.392 billion, which would be carried out until 2016. Thus, the ajusted Net Income corresponded to R$4.743 billion, representing R$4.84 per stock and annualized profitability of 30.05% on the final Stockholders’ Equity and of 31.49% on the average Stockholders’ Equity. The annualized return on Total Assets was 2.61% compared to 2.68% on the same period of the previous year.

From January 1 to September 30, 2006, Goodwill was amortized which, net of taxes, totaled R$1.678 billion, and, if we would not consider these effects, we would have Net Income of R$5.029 billion, representing an annualized profitability of 31.93% on the final Stockholders’ Equity and of 33.23% on the average Stockholders’ Equity.

The advanced amortization, carried out in the third quarter of 2006 despite not being computed into the Dividends and/or Interest on Own Capital calculation distributed this year, will positively affect future results, as the expense previously mentioned will not be recorded in these results and, consequently, in the stockholders’ capital compensation for those periods.

Taxes and contributions amounted to R$4.393 billion, equivalent to 92.61% of Net Income, including paid or accrued pension taxes and contributions, resulting from the main activities carried out by Bradesco Organization in the first nine months of the year.

The Operating Efficiency Ratio – IEO, accumulated for 12 months, was 42.39% on September 30 against 43.23% in June 2006. The improvement reflects the strict control of administrative expenses and the permanent effort for the increase in revenues.

At the end of the quarter, the paid-up Capital Stock was R$13 billion. Added up to Equity Reserves of R$8.773 billion, it comprised the Stockholders’ Equity of R$21.773 billion, with an evolution of 19.23% compared to the same period of the previous year, corresponding to the equity value of R$22.24 per stock.

200


The Managed Stockholders’ Equity represents 8.98% of the consolidated Assets, which added up to R$243.192 billion, an increase of 20.44% over September/2005. Thus, the capital adequacy ratios reached 18.37% in the financial consolidated and 16.16% in the economic-financial consolidated, therefore higher than the minimum of 11% set forth by Resolution 2,099, as of 8.17.1994, of the National Monetary Council, in conformity with the Basel Committee. At the end of the quarter, the stockholders' equity to fixed assets ratio, compared to the Consolidated Reference Stockholders’ Equity, was 46.04% in the financial consolidated and 11.89% in the economic-financial consolidated, placed in the maximum limit of 50%.

In compliance with the provisions in Article 8 of Circular 3,068, as of 11.8.2001, of the Brazilian Central Bank, Bradesco states it has financial capacity and intention to hold to maturity securities rated in the “securities held to maturity” category.

The global volume of funds raised and managed by Bradesco Organization, on September 30, totaled R$358.557 billion, 21.34% higher than the same period of the previous years, namely:

•   R$ 115.117   
billion in Demand Deposits, Time Deposits, Interbank Deposits, Other Deposits, Open Market and Savings Accounts;
 
•   R$ 140.222   
billion in assets under management, comprising Investment Funds, Managed Portfolios and Quotas of Third-Party Funds, a 22.30% growth compared to Septmeber/2005;
 
•   R$ 51.926   
billion recorded in the Exchange Portfolio, Borrowings and Onlendings, Own Working Capital, Tax Payment and Collection of Related Taxes, Funds From Issuance of Securities and Subordinated Debt in the country;

billion recorded in Technical Provisions for Insurance, Supplementary Private Pension Plans and Certificated Savings Plans, with an increase of 19.57% when compared to the previous year;
 
•   R$ 5.573   
billion in Foreign Funding, by means of public and private issuances, Subordinated Debt and Securitization of Future Financial Flows, representing US$2.563 billion.

At the end of the period, loan operations recorded a balance of R$92.013 billion, including in this amount:

•   R$ 5.487  
billion in Advances on Foreign Exchange Contracts, for a total Portfolio of US$5.763 billion of Export Financing;
 
•   US$ 771.338  
million of operations in Import Financing in Foreign Currencies;

In the first nine months of the year, for the activities of Real Estate Loan, the Organization destined funds for house construction and acquisition in the amount of R$1.561 billion, corresponding to 14,100 properties.

With a highlighted performance in the Capital Markets Area, Bradesco supported the capitalization of companies intermediating operations of public placement of stocks, debentures, promissory notes and Credit Right Investment Funds, which, since the beginning of the year, added up to R$19.677 billion, 24.83 % of the total volume of issuances registered at the CVM – Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission. The Bank was also highlighted in assisted special operations, comprising mergers and acquisitions, project finance and corporate and financial restructurings.

Grupo Bradesco de Seguros e Previdência, with a strong operation in the Insurance, Supplementary Pension Plans and Certificated Savings Plans areas, recorded on September 30 a Net Income of R$1.591 billion and Stockholders’ Equity of R$6.752 billion.

In the quarter, it is worth mentioning that Bradesco Organization, in compliance with Instruction 381, issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission, neither contracted nor had services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers Auditores Independentes unrelated to the independent audit in levels higher than 5% of total costs thereof. The policy adopted complies with the principles preserving the auditor’s independence, pursuant to the internationally accepted criteria, such as: the auditor shall neither audit his own work, nor perform management duties with his client or promote his interests.

We point out the improvement of ratings attributed to Bradesco in the period. In accordance with Standard&Poor’s Rating Services, Bradesco is a level above the sovereign credit rating and a level under the Investment Grade. Fitch Ratings increased Bradesco’s individual rating and Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of foreign currency long-term debt and Moody’s Investors Service increased Bradesco’s issued bonuses rating, placing them as investment grade.

In the social area, the Organization continues with its wide educational program developed by means of Fundação Bradesco, which completes 50 years of activities with 40 schools set up mainly in regions with social-economic needs, in all Brazilian States and in the Federal District. The program provides more than 108 thousand students with totally free education, including education courses targeted at youngsters and adults and initial and continued education of workers. More than 50 thousand students of the kindergarten, elementary, high schools and technical professional courses receive, also on a free basis, food, uniform, school supply and medical and dental assistance.

It is worth pointing out Bradesco’s support to Finasa Esportes Project, with volleyball and basketball training centers at Fundação Bradesco in Osasco, SP, and in local schools and sports centers in the city. It currently assists 2,800 girls from 9 to 17 years of age.

In the Human Resources area, searching for a permanent evolution in the quality of assistance and in the level of the services provided, the Bank maintains its wide training program, aiming at the qualification and professional development of the staff. From January to September, 1,121 courses were carried out, with 1,002,084 participations. The assistance benefits aimed at the improvement of the quality of life, well being and safety of the employees and their dependents comprised 175,070 lives, at the end of the quarter.

The record of all these facts makes evident Bradesco’s commitment to always offer superior products and services. For the achievements and advances reached, we thank our stockholders and clients for their support and trust and our employees for their dedicated work.

Notes to the Financial Statements  (A free translation from the original in Portuguese)

1) Operations

Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco) is a private-sector publicly-held company which, operating as a Multiple Bank, carries out all types of authorized banking activities through its commercial, foreign exchange, consumer financing, housing loan and credit card portfolios. The Bank also operates in a number of other activities through its direct and indirect subsidiary companies, particularly in Leasing, Investment Bank, Consortium Management, Insurance, Private Pension Plan and Certificated Savings Plans activities. Operations are conducted within the context of the companies comprising the Bradesco Organization, working in an integrated manner in the market.

In this context, Bradesco carried out the following operations in the period of 2006:

2) Presentation of the Financial Statements

The financial statements of Bradesco include the financial statements of Banco Bradesco, its foreign branches and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and jointly controlled investments, in Brazil and abroad, and Special Purpose Entities (SPEs). They were prepared based on accounting policies determined by Brazilian Corporate Law for the recording of operations, as well as the rules and instructions of the National Monetary Council (CMN), BACEN, Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), Brazilian Council of Private Insurance (CNSP), Superintendence of Private Insurance (SUSEP) and the National Agency for Supplementary Healthcare (ANS), and comprise the financial statements of the leasing companies based on the capital leasing method of accounting, whereby leased assets are reclassified to the leasing operations account.

Accordingly, for preparation purposes, intercompany investments, asset and liability account balances, revenue, expenses and unrealized profit were eliminated from these financial statements, as well as the portions of the net income and the stockholders’ equity referring to the interest of minority stockholders were highlighted. In the case of investments which are jointly controlled with other stockholders, asset, liability and income components were included in the consolidated financial statements in proportion to the parent company's percentage capital ownership of each investee. Goodwill on the acquisition of investments in subsidiaries and in the jointly controlled investments was presented in deferred assets until June 30, 2006, and was fully amortized in 3Q06 (Note 15). The exchange variation arising from transactions of foreign branches and subsidiaries was allocated to the statement of income accounts according to the corresponding assets and liabilities from which it was originated.

The financial statements include estimates and assumptions, such as the calculation of the allowance for loan losses, the estimation of the fair value of certain financial instruments, provision for contingencies, other provisions, the quantification of technical provisions for insurance, supplementary pension plans and certificated savings plans and the determination of the useful economic life of specific assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

Supplementary Information to Financial Statements:

With the purpose of providing supplementary information, we present the cash flow statement by the indirect method and the value added statement, not required by BACEN, which have been prepared in conformity with the structure set forth in the chart of accounts for National Financial System Institutions – (COSIF).

3) Significant Accounting Policies

a) Determination of net income

Income and expenses are determined on the accrual basis of accounting. Transactions with prefixed rates are recorded at their redemption amounts and income and expenses for the future period are recorded as a discount to the corresponding asset and liability accounts. Income and expenses of a financial nature are prorated daily and calculated based on the exponential method, except when relating to discounted notes or to cross-border transactions which are calculated based on the straight-line method. Post-fixed or foreign-currency-indexed transactions are adjusted to the balance sheet date.

The insurance and coinsurance premiums and commissions, net of premiums assigned in coinsurance and reinsurance and corresponding commissions, are appropriated to results upon issuance of the corresponding insurance policies and invoices and are deferred for appropriation on a straight-line basis over the terms of the insurance policies, during the risk coverage period, by means of recording and reversal of unearned premiums reserve and deferred selling expenses. The accepted coinsurance and retrocession operations are recorded based on the information received from other companies and the Brazilian Institute of Reinsures (IRB), respectively.

The supplementary private pension plans contributions and life insurance premiums covering survival are recognized in income when effectively received.

The revenue from certificated savings plans is recognized at the time it is effectively received. The expenses for placement of bonds, classified as “Selling Expenses”, are recorded as they are incurred. Brokerage expenses are recorded when the saving bonds contributions are effectively received. The payment for draw redemptions is considered as expenses of the month when these occur.

The expenses for technical provisions for private pension plans and certificated savings plans are recorded at the same time as the corresponding revenues there from are recognized.

b) Interbank investments

Purchase and sale commitments subject to unrestricted movement agreements are adjusted to mark-to-market. Other assets are recorded at acquisition cost, including income earned up to the balance sheet date, net of loss accrual, when applicable.

c) Securities

Trading securities – securities which are acquired for the purpose of being actively and frequently traded are adjusted to mark-to-market as a counter-entry to income for the period;

Securities available for sale – securities which are not specifically intended for trading purposes or as held to maturity are adjusted to mark-to-market as a counter-entry to a specific account in stockholders' equity, at amounts net of tax effects; and

Securities held to maturity – securities for which there exists intention and financial capacity for maintenance through to maturity are recorded at acquisition cost, plus income earned, as a counter-entry to income for the period.

d) Derivative financial instruments (assets and liabilities)

These are classified based on management’s intended use thereof on the date of the operation and whether it was carried out for hedging purposes or not.

The derivative financial instruments, which do not comply with the hedging criteria established by BACEN, particularly derivatives used to manage general exposure to risk, are recorded at market values, with the corresponding mark-to-market adjustments taken directly to income for the period.

215


e) Loan and leasing operations, advances on foreign exchange contracts, other receivables with characteristics of loan granting and allowance for doubtful accounts.

Loan and leasing operations, advances on foreign exchange contracts and other receivables with characteristics of loan granting are classified at their corresponding risk levels in compliance with: (i) the parameters established by CMN Resolution 2682, at nine levels from “AA” (minimum risk) to “H” (maximum risk); and (ii) management’s risk level assessment. This assessment, which is carried out on a periodic basis, considers current economic conditions, and past loan loss experience, as well as specific and general risks relating to operations, borrowers and guarantors. Moreover, the length of the delay in payment defined in CMN Resolution 2682 is also taken into account for customer risk classification purposes as follows:

Past-due period  Customer classification 
•; From 15 to 30 days
•; From 31 to 60 days 
•; From 61 to 90 days 
•; From 91 to 120 days 
•; From 121 to 150 days 
•; From 151 to 180 days 
•; More than 180 days 

The accrual of these operations past due up to 59 days is recorded in revenues and subsequent to the 60th day, in unearned income.

Past-due operations classified at “H” level remain at this level for six months, subsequent to which time they are written-off against the existing allowance and controlled over a five-year period in memorandum accounts, no longer being recorded in balance sheet accounts.

Renegotiated operations are maintained with a classification equal to their prior rating. Renegotiated operations, already written-off against the provision and which are recorded in memorandum accounts, are classified at “H” level and the possible revenues derived from their renegotiation are recognized as revenue only when they are effectively received.

In the case of mortgage loans, the contractual capitalization period (monthly or quarterly) for income appropriation purposes complies with applicable legislation and end-borrower financings are adjusted to the present value of the installments receivable.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded at an amount considered sufficient to cover estimated losses and considers BACEN requirements and instructions, as well as Management’s appraisal of the related credit risks.

f) Taxes on income (asset and liability)

Tax credits on taxes on income, calculated on tax losses, negative basis of social contribution and temporary additions are recorded in “Other receivables – Sundry”, and the provision for deferred tax liabilities on excess depreciation and mark-to-market adjustments of securities is recorded in “Other liabilities – Fiscal and pension plan activities”.

Tax credits on temporary additions are realized upon use and/or reversal of the corresponding provisions on which they were recorded. Tax credits on tax losses and negative basis of social contribution will be realized as taxable income is generated.

The provision for federal income tax is calculated at the standard rate of 15% of taxable income, plus an additional rate of 10%. The provision for social contribution is recorded at the rate of 9% of pre-income tax. Provisions were recorded for other taxes on income in accordance with specific applicable legislation.

g) Prepaid expenses

This records investments of resources in prepayments, whose benefits or service provision will take place in subsequent years.

h) Investments

The investments in subsidiaries, shared control subsidiaries and affiliated companies, when relevant, are valuated by the equity accounting method. The financial statements of the foreign branches and subsidiaries are adjusted to comply with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, translated into Reais and their related effects recognized in income for the period.

The exchange membership certificates of Stock Exchanges, the Custody and Settlement Chamber (CETIP) and the Mercantile and Futures Exchange (BM&F) are recorded at their unaudited book values, informed by the corresponding exchanges, and fiscal incentives and other investments are recorded at acquisition cost, less the provision for losses, when applicable.

i) Fixed assets

This is shown at acquisition cost, net of respective accumulated depreciations, calculated by the straight-line method according to the estimated useful-economic life of assets of which: real estate in use – 4% p.a.; furnishings and fixtures, machinery and equipment –10% p.a.; transport systems – 20% p.a.; and data processing systems – 20% to 50% p.a.

216


j) Deferred charges

Deferred charges are recorded at cost of acquisition or formation, net of the corresponding accumulated amortization at 20% per annum, calculated on the straight-line method.

Goodwill in the acquisition of investments in subsidiary companies and shared control subsidiaries, based on future profitability expectation, had an amortization of 10% to 20% per annum and was recorded in deferred assets until June 30, 2006.

Goodwill was reviewed by the Management Bodies and was fully amortized in 3Q06, as mentioned in Note 15.

k) Deposits and federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase

These are recorded at the amount of the liabilities and include, when applicable, related charges up to the balance sheet date, on a daily pro rata basis.

l) Technical provisions relating to insurance, private pension plans and certificated savings plans activities

Technical provisions are calculated according to actuarial technical notes approved by SUSEP and ANS, and criteria set forth by CNSP Resolution 120/2004.

– The provision of unearned premiums is comprised of retained premiums which are deferred during the term of effectiveness of the insurance agreements, determining the “pro-rata” day value of the unearned premium of the period of the risk to accrue (future risk of policies in effect).

– The provision of claims incurred but nor reported (IBNR) is calculated on an actuarial basis to quantify the amount of claims incurred and not reported by those insured/beneficiaries. The provision is established net of recoveries of co-insurance and re-insurance

– The provision of unsettled claims is established based on the estimates of payments of indemnities, net of recoveries of co-insurance and re-insurance, pursuant to notices of claims received from those insured until the balance sheet date.

The provision is monetarily restated and includes all the claims under litigation.

– The mathematical provision of benefits to be granted refers to participants whose benefits have not started yet. The mathematical provision of benefits granted refers to participants already using the benefits. Mathematical provisions related to private pension plans known as “traditional” represent the difference between the current value of the future benefits and the current value of the future contributions, corresponding to the obligations assumed under the form of supplementary pension plans, disability, pension and savings funds. They are calculated according to the methodology and premises set forth in Actuarial Technical Notes. The provisions linked to life insurance covering survival (VGBL) and to the private pension plans of the “unrestricted benefits generating” (PGBL) category represent the amount of the contributions made by the participants, net of loadings and other contractual charges, plus financial earnings generated by the investment of resources in investment funds specially established (FIEs).

– The contribution insufficiency provision is constituted to complement the mathematical provisions of benefits to be granted and granted, should they not be sufficient to guarantee future commitments. The provision is calculated on an actuarial basis and takes into consideration the actuarial table AT-2000.

– The financial fluctuation provision is established until the limit of 15% of the mathematical provision of benefits to be granted related to the private pension plans in the category of variable contribution with guarantee of earnings to meet possible financial fluctuations.

– The administrative expenses provision is constituted to cover administrative expenses of the defined benefit and variable contribution plans. It is calculated in conformity with the methodology set forth in the Actuarial Technical Note.

– The mathematical provision for redemptions is calculated on nominal amounts of certificated savings plans and monetarily restated, when applicable, based on Actuarial Technical Notes approved by SUSEP.

– The provisions for redemptions are established by the values of the expired certificated savings plans and also by the values of the certificated savings plans which have not expired but whose redemption has been early required by the clients. The provisions are monetarily restated based on the indexes estimated in each plan.

– The provisions for unrealized and payable draws are constituted to meet premiums arising from future draws (unrealized) and also to premiums arising from draws in which clients were already selected (payable).

m) Contingent Assets and Liabilities and Legal Liabilities – Tax and Social Security

The recognition, measuring and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and legal liabilities are made according to the criteria defined in CVM Resolution 489/05.

217


n) Other assets and liabilities

The assets are stated at their realizable amounts, including, when applicable, related income and monetary and exchange variations (on a daily pro rata basis), and provision for loss, when deemed appropriate. The liabilities include known or estimated amounts, plus related charges and monetary and exchange variations (on a daily pro rata basis).

(1)      For comparison purposes with the criterion adopted by Central Bank of Brazil’s Circular 3068 and due to securities characteristics, we are considering the derivative financial instruments under the category “Trading Securities”;
(2)      These refer to assets under management funds applied in purchase and sale commitments with Bradesco, the owners of which are subsidiaries, included in the consolidated financial statements;
(3)      The investment fund quotas were distributed according to instruments composing the portfolio and preserving the classification of funds category;
(4)      On June 30, 2006, R$11,251,983 thousand of “Trading Securities” was transferred to “Securities Available for Sale”, in view of the management’s intention as to their realization;
(5)      In compliance with the provisions of Article 8 of BACEN Circular 3068, Bradesco declares that it has both the financial capacity and the intention to hold to maturity the securities classified in the ‘securities held to maturity’ category. This financial capacity is evidenced in Note 32a, which presents the maturities of asset and liability operations on the reference date of September 30, 2006;
(6)      The number of days to maturity was based on the maturity of the securities, regardless of their accounting classification;
(7)      This column reflects book value subsequent to mark-to-market, except for securities held to maturity, whose market value is higher than the restated cost value in the amount of R$ 829,243 thousand (June 30, 2006 – R$ 789,106 thousand and September 30, 2005 – R$ 787,115 thousand); and
(8)      The market value of securities is determined based on the market price available on the balance sheet date. In the event no market prices are available, amounts are estimated based on the prices quoted by dealers, on price definition models, quotation models or quotations for instruments with similar characteristics; in case of investment funds, the restated cost reflects the market value of respective quotas.

e) Derivative financial instruments

Bradesco carries out transactions involving derivative financial instruments, which are recorded in balance sheet or memorandum accounts, for its own needs and for customers. The derivative financial instruments, when used by the Bank, aim at hedging its asset and liability positions against the effect of exchange and interest rate variations. The derivatives generally represent future commitments for exchanging currencies or indices, or purchasing and selling other financial instruments according to the terms and dates set forth in the contracts. Under the option contracts, the purchaser is entitled, but not obliged, to purchase or sell a financial instrument at a specific strike price in the future.

The fixed assets to stockholders’ equity ratio, in relation to consolidated reference stockholders’ equity, reached 11.89% (June 30, 2006 – 16.40% and September 30, 2005 – 18.37%), on the consolidated basis and 46.04 % (June 30, 2006 – 48.03% and September 30, 2005 – 42.76%) on the consolidated financial basis, within the maximum 50% limit.

The difference between the fixed assets to stockholders’ equity ratio of the Operating and Economic-Financial Consolidated results from the inclusion of the non-financial subsidiaries which have a high liquidity and a low fixed assets to stockholders’ equity level, with the consequent reduction of the fixed assets to stockholders’ equity ratio of the Economic-Financial Consolidated and enabling, when necessary, the distribution of funds to financial companies.

These consist of funds obtained from banks abroad, from the issuance of notes in the international market and under National Monetary Council (CMN) Resolution 2770 for:
(i) onlending to local customers, maturing until 2011, under terms which do not exceed those of the funds obtained, with interest payable at LIBOR, plus a spread or prefixed interest; and
(ii) foreign exchange operations for customers, through purchase and sale of foreign currencies, related to discounts of export bills, pre-financing of exports and financing of imports, substantially in the short term.

d) Since 2003, Bradesco Organization has been entering into certain agreements designed to optimize its funding and liquidity management activities through the use of Specific Purposes Entities (SPEs). These SPEs, named Brazilian Merchant Voucher Receivables Limited and International Diversified Payment Rights Company, are financed through long-term liabilities and settled through the future cash flows of the corresponding assets, which basically comprise:

(i) current and future flows of money orders remitted by individuals and corporate entities located abroad to beneficiaries in Brazil for which the Bank acts as paying agent; and

(ii) current and future flows of credit card receivables arising from expenses made in Brazilian territory by holders of credit cards issued outside Brazil.

The long-term securities issued by the SPEs and sold to investors will be settled through funds derived from the money order flows and credit card bills. Bradesco is obliged to redeem these securities in specific cases of default or if the SPEs’ operations are discontinued.

The funds derived from the sale of current and future money orders and credit card receivables, received by the SPEs, must be maintained in a specific bank account until such time as a specific minimum limit is attained.

We present below the main features of the notes issued by the SPEs:

18) Contingent Assets and Liabilities and Legal Liabilities – Tax and Social Security

a) Contingent Assets

In 2006, contingent assets were not recognized on an accounting basis, however, there are proceedings whose perspective of success is probable. The main ones are:

– Tax on Net Income – (ILL) R$347,750 thousand: It pleads the return, by means of compensation or restitution, of the amounts collected as Tax on Net Income established by article 35 of Law 7,713/88, once the referred tax was unconstitutionally judged by the Federal Supreme Court;

– Social Integration Program – (PIS) R$98,624 thousand: It pleads the compensation of PIS on the Operating Gross Revenue, collected under the terms of the Decrees Laws 2445 and 2449/88, in what exceeded the amount due under the terms of the Supplementary Law 07/70 (PIS Repique).

b) Contingent Liabilities classified as probable and Legal Liabilities – Tax and Social Security

Bradesco Organization is currently a defendant in a number of legal suits in the labor, civil and tax spheres, arising from the normal course of its business activities.

The provisions were recorded based on the opinion of the legal advisors; the types of lawsuit; similarity with previous lawsuits; complexity; and, jurisprudence and prior court sentences, whenever loss is deemed probable.

Bradesco’s Management considers that the provision recorded is sufficient to cover losses generated by the corresponding proceedings.

The liability related to the legal liability in judicial discussion is maintained until the definite gain of the lawsuit, represented by favorable judicial decision, on which resources are not provided, or its prescription.

I – Labor claims

These are claims brought by former employees seeking indemnity, especially the payment of unpaid overtime. The amount of the labor claims is provisioned based on the average value determined by the total payments made of the claims ended in the last 12 months, considering the similarity of these proceedings.

Following the effective control over working hours implemented in 1992, via electronic time cards, overtime is paid regularly during the employment contract and accordingly, claims on an individual basis subsequent to 1997 substantially reduced its amounts.

II – Civil lawsuits

These are claims for pain and suffering and property damages, mainly protests, bounced checks and the inclusion of information about debtors in the restricted credit registry. These lawsuits are individually controlled and provisioned for specific lawsuits based on the opinion of the legal advisors, taking into consideration the nature of the lawsuits; similarity with previous lawsuits; complexity; and in the positioning of our Courts.

The issues discussed in the lawsuits usually are not events that cause a representative impact on the financial results. Approximately 60% of the lawsuits were brought at the small claims court, in which the requests are limited to 40 minimum wages. Moreover, approximately 50% of these lawsuits are judged unfounded and the amount of the condemnation imposed corresponds to the historical average of only 5% of the total amount claimed.

At present, there are no significant administrative lawsuits in course, moved as a result of the lack of compliance with National Financial System regulations or payment of fines, which could cause representative impacts on the Bank’s financial results.

III – Legal Liabilities – Tax and Social Security

Bradesco Organization is judicially disputing the legality and constitutionality of certain taxes and contributions, for which provisions have been recorded in full, despite the likelihood of a successful medium and long-term outcome based on the opinion of the legal advisors

The main matters are:

– CSLL – R$1,163,286 thousand: Questioning of CSLL required from financial institutions in the reference years from 1995 to 1998 by rates higher than the ones applied to general legal entities, not complying with the constitutional principle of isonomy;

– COFINS – R$712,806 thousand: It pleads to calculate and collect COFINS, as from October 2005, on the effective sales results, whose concept is in the article 2 of Supplementary Law 70/91, removing the unconstitutional increase of the calculation basis intended by paragraph 1 of article 3 of Law 9,718/98;

– CSLL – R$434,504 thousand: It pleads the non collection of CSLL of the reference years from 1996 to 1998, years in which some companies of Bradesco Organization did not have employees, once the article 195, I, of the Federal Constitution provides for that this contribution is only due by employers;

At the Special Stockholders’ Meeting as of October 5, 2006, it was resolved to increase the capital stock, at the amount of R$1,200,000 thousand, by means of the issuance of 21,818,182 new stocks, all non-par registered, book entry stocks, 10,909,152 of which are common stocks and 10,909,030 are preferred stocks, at the price of R$55.00 per stock, by means of the private subscription by stockholders from October 19 to November 20, 2006, in the proportion of 2.226746958% on the share position which each one has on the date of the meeting. The payment will be in cash and will occur on December 7, 2006, in 100% of the amount of the subscribed stocks, on the same date of payment of supplementary interest on own capital and declared dividends.

c) Interest on own capital/Dividends

Non-voting preferred stocks are entitled to all rights and benefits attributed to common stocks and, in conformity with Bradesco’s Bylaws, have priority to repayment of capital and 10% (ten per cent) additional of interest on own capital and/or dividends, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 1, item II of Article 17 of Law 6404/1976, as amended by Law 10303/2001.

In conformity with Bradesco’s Bylaws, stockholders are entitled to interest on own capital and/or dividends, which total, at least, 30% of net income for the year, adjusted in accordance with Brazilian corporate law.

Interest on own capital is calculated based on the stockholders' equity accounts and limited to the variation in the long-term interest rate (TJLP), subject to the existence of profits, computed prior to the deduction thereof, or of retained earnings and profit reserves in amounts that are equivalent to, or exceed twice the amount of such interest.

Bradesco’s capital compensation policy aims at distributing the interest on own capital, at the maximum amount calculated in conformity with the prevailing laws, which is estimated, net of Withholding Income Tax, in the calculation of mandatory dividends of the year provided for in the Company’s Bylaws.

At a Special Meeting held on June 30, 2006, the Board of Directors approved the Board of Executive Officers’ proposal for the payment of interim interest on own capital corresponding to the 1st half of 2006, at the amount of R$0.327750 (net of Withholding Income Tax R$0.278588) per common stock and R$0.360525 (net of Withholding Income Tax R$0.306446) per preferred stock, whose payment was made on July 20, 2006.

At a Special Meeting of the Board of Directors held on October 5, 2006, it was resolved the approval of the proposal of the Board of Executive Officers for the payment of supplementary interest on own capital related to the year of 2006, at the amount of R$0.784333536 (net of tax R$0.666683505) per common stock and R$0.862766889 (net of tax R$0.733351856) per preferred stock, whose payment will be made on December 7, 2006. In complement to the interest on own capital for the year, it was proposed the distribution of dividends, at the amount of R$585,000 thousand, at the ratio of R$0.568954689 per common stock and R$0.625850158 per preferred stock to be paid on December 7, 2006, by the declared amount, with no Withholding Income Tax, pursuant to Article 10 of law 9249/95.

32) Financial Instruments

a) Risk Management Process

Bradesco approaches on a comprehensive and integrated basis the management of all risks inherent to its activities, supported by its Internal Control and Compliance structure.

Credit Risk Management

Credit Risk is the possibility that a counterparty of a loan or financial operation might neither intend nor suffer any change in its ability to comply with its contractual liabilities thus may generate any risk of loss for the Organization.

As part of its Credit Risk Management improvement process, Bradesco has been working uninterruptedly to improve the procedures for gathering and controlling portfolio information, developing and improving loss estimation models to examine and prepare the rating inventories used in the follow-up of credit analysis, granting and settlement processes, monitoring credit concentration and identifying new components offering credit risks and preparing risk mitigation strategies.

Market Risk Management

Market risk is related to the possibility of loss from fluctuating rates caused by mismatched currencies and indices of the Institution's asset and liability portfolios.

Bradesco adopts a conservative policy regarding market risk exposure, being VaR (Value at Risk) limits defined by Senior Management, and compliance monitored on a daily basis by an area which is independent from portfolio management. The methodology used to determine VaR has a reliability level of 97.5% . The fluctuations and correlations used by the models are calculated on statistical bases that are used on forward-looking processes, in accordance with economic studies. The methodology applied and current statistical models are validated daily using backtesting techniques.

In the chart below, we show Global VaR positions (Treasury, position in Brazil and abroad, and Trade Portfolio):

Investments abroad protected by hedge operations are not being considered in the VaR calculation, as these are strategically managed and on a differential basis, in amounts taking into account the tax effects, which minimize the sensitivity to risks and corresponding impacts on results, as well as foreign notes positions, which are matched with funding.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk management is designed to control the different unhedged settlement terms of the Organization's rights and obligations, as well as the liquidity of the financial instruments used to manage the financial positions.
