PANAMA CITY, Jan. 20, 2026

"We are very pleased with this new facility, which is particularly significant for Bladex. It not only enabled us to secure resources under highly competitive terms, but it also opened doors in markets where the Bank previously had no presence, laying a solid foundation for relationships that will continue strengthening the diversification of our funding sources," said Eduardo Vivone, Executive Vice President of Treasury and Capital Markets at Bladex.

For his part, Jorge Salas, Chief Executive Officer of Bladex, commented: "This transaction, which efficiently complements our solid deposit base, is aligned with Bladex's strategy to consolidate its role as a bridge between Latin America and the global financial markets. The funds obtained will allow us to continue supporting the development of our region and the growth and expansion of our clients. We thank all participating institutions and, in particular, acknowledge the outstanding work of Nexent Bank N.V., whose professionalism and efficiency were essential to the successful execution of this operation."
