2. Also, Grupo Bancolombia has a local presence in Peru through FiduPerú, specializing in fiduciary business, Leasing Peru, specializing in financial leasing, and Renting Peru, specializing in operative renting of vehicles.
3. Valores Bancolombia is applying for the necessary authorizations to obtain a license to operate a stock exchange association in Peru, and Leasing Peru is evaluating the possibility of converting into a multi-services financial company, pursuant to Peruvian legislation, in order to expand its business from financial leasing to granting of credit.
