Banco de Costa Rica (BCR) announced on Apr. 10 a series of financial decisions aimed at strengthening the capital position of its subsidiary, BCR Sociedad Administradora de Fondos de Inversión (BCR SAFI).
The bank said these actions are part of a prudent approach to ensure business continuity and safeguard the interests of investors and clients. BCR has made a provision exceeding ¢29 billion, which it described as reflecting its commitment to stability, risk management, and ongoing support for its subsidiaries.
In addition to this recent measure, BCR outlined several previous steps taken to reinforce BCR SAFI’s equity. These include the approval of a capitalization for ¢22 billion on Sept. 23, 2024; an increase in share capital by ¢19.26 billion on Feb. 9, 2026; and an additional capitalization for ¢9 billion approved on Mar. 2, 2026, currently under budgetary review with the Comptroller General’s Office.
According to the bank, these efforts demonstrate both its financial strength and ability to provide timely backing for subsidiaries. The statement said this ensures operational stability and protects stakeholder interests.
The bank concluded by reaffirming its commitment “with prudent, transparent and responsible management.”
