Grupo Financiero Santander México Announces CEO Presentation At Parent Company's 2017 Strategy Update

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Financiero Santander México, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: SANMEX; NYSE: BSMX) ("Santander México" or the "Group") has made available to its analysts and investors, the presentation by its CEO Mr. Héctor Grisi Checa for its "2017 Strategy Update" held on October 10 in New York City by its parent company, Banco Santander, S.A.

The presentation is available at the following link: http://www.santander.com.mx/ir/ingles/presentaciones/.

The presentation released by Banco Santander, S.A. contains financial information and certain targets for selected indicators (the "Selected Indicators") of the Group and Banco Santander (México), S.A. Institución de Banca Múltiple, Grupo Financiero Santander México (the "Bank"), including 2018, which are based on assumptions believed by Santander Mexico's management to be reasonable. However, the financial figures included in the presentation are presented under accounting principles that differ from Mexican Banking GAAP. For example, cost of risk under Mexican Banking GAAP is calculated including recoveries and therefore would be higher if presented under Mexican Banking GAAP. In addition, Mexican Banking GAAP requires inclusion of IPAB contributions as part of expenses, which impacts the efficiency ratio as calculated under Mexican Banking GAAP. Therefore, these financial figures and other financial figures included in the presentation are not entirely comparable to those published by Santander Mexico in its annual report on Form 20-F under IFRS or the financial statements published locally in Mexico by the Group and the Bank under Mexican Banking GAAP. Neither the Group nor the Bank has published any forecast of similar financial targets for the Selected Indicators in IFRS or Mexican Banking GAAP.
