    (i)
    At December 31, 2017 cash and deposits subject to legal cash requirements in local and foreign currency are subject to an implicit rate of 5.00 percent and 32.40 percent, respectively, on the total balance of obligations subject to legal cash requirements, as required by the BCRP (6.50 percent and 25.89 percent, respectively, at December 31, 2016).
     
    In the same way, at December 31, 2017, the increase in the balances of the legal cash requirement originated from the following factors: i) increase in the rates on the legal cash requirement; ii) increase in the volumes of the total of obligations subject to the legal cash requirement (TOSE from the Spanish acronym); and iii) increase in the volumes of cash due to changes in the banknote export policy.
     
    (ii)
    At December 31, 2017, the Group maintains three “overnight” deposits with the BCRP, two of which are denominated in U.S Dollars for US$900.0 million (equivalent to S/2,916.9 million) and US$46.6 million (equivalent to S/150.9 million) and one in soles for S/300.0 million. The “overnight” deposits in dollars and soles earn interest at rates of 1.41 percent and 2.0 percent, respectively, and have maturities at 5 days.
     
    b)
    Deposits with local and foreign banks -
     
    Deposits with local and foreign banks mainly consist of balances in soles and U.S. dollars; are cash in hand and earn interest at market rates. At December 31, 2017 and 2016 Credicorp and its Subsidiaries do not maintain significant deposits with any bank in particular.
