In line with the Plan México introduced by the federal government, BBVA Mexico reaffirmed its position as the bank for SMEs. In 2024, new loan origination in this segment totaled MXN 241 billion, a 16% increase compared to December 2023. Of this amount, 7% was granted to SMEs with no previous banking history. As of December 2024, the total SME portfolio stood at MXN 136 billion.
Through its Banco de Barrio initiative, the institution continued to strengthen the micro, small, and medium-sized enterprise segment. As of year-end 2024, the program reported 110,000 new clients, bringing the total to 402,000.

Credit Quality
BBVA México maintains a robust framework for credit approval, monitoring, and risk management, which is reflected in its credit quality indicators. The non-performing loan ratio (NPL) stood at 1.6% as of December year-end, comparing favorably to the most recent publicly available system-wide NPL figure of 2.0% as of November 2024 (according to data published by the National Banking and Securities Commission). The Stage 3 loan coverage ratio as of December 2024 reached 193.1%.
Evolution of Results
Grupo Financiero BBVA Mexico delivered strong results, achieving a cumulative net income of MXN 107.4 billion. This performance was primarily driven by a solid increase in the net interest margin, resulting from higher lending activity in the most profitable portfolios and effective management of funding costs.
In addition, non-interest income—such as fees and trading—also showed favorable results. These gains were supported by increased transactional activity, reflected in higher fee income, as well as improved performance in the insurance and pension businesses due to strong investment portfolio returns and higher premiums issued.
