FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BANCO LATINOAMERICANO DE EXPORTACIONES, S.A. ("BLADEX")
REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2002 RESULTS
Panama City, Republic of Panama, April 18, 2002 - Banco Latinoamericano de
Exportaciones, S.A. ("BLADEX" or the "Bank") (NYSE: BLX), a specialized
multinational bank established to finance trade in the Latin American and
Caribbean region, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31,
2002. The Bank reported net income before provisions of $20.5 million, of which
$20.0 million was allocated to increase the allowance for potential credit
losses, making the total of both the allowance for potential credit losses and
impairment of securities $255.0 million, compared to $235 million at December
31, 2001. Net income available to common stockholders was $0.2 million, or $0.01
per share, compared with $26.8 million, or $1.42 per share, reported in the
first quarter of 2001.
The average number of common shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2002
was 17,342,370 shares compared with 18,898,091 shares for the first quarter of
2001.
There will be a conference call on April 19, 2002 at 11:00 a.m. ET in the U.S.
(10:00 a.m. Panamanian time). For those interested in participating, please call
877-925-2339 in the United Sates and, if outside the United States, please dial
the applicable international access code + U.S. country code followed by
847-413-2907. All participants should give the conference name "BLADEX Quarterly
Call" or the conference ID#5600794 to the telephone operator answering the call
five minutes before the call is set to begin.
Jose Castaneda, Chief Executive Officer of BLADEX, said, "Our financial results
for the first quarter were negatively impacted by the continued deterioration of
the situation in Argentina. We remain very concerned about current trends in
that country. However, we believe that our strong capitalization and operating
profitability, coupled with the liquidity and quality of our non-Argentine
portfolio, provide us with the support we need to address the challenges we face
in that country.
During the first quarter of 2002, the Bank's status as a multilateral credit
organization was confirmed by the Central Bank of Argentina, entitling the Bank
to receive payments in US dollars from Argentine creditors without its prior
approval.
In other countries of the region, the generally increasing risk levels and
diminished economic activity led to a reduction in our loan balances in the
quarter. Revenues were further reduced because of our decision to build and
maintain over $600 million in liquidity, a course of action consistent with the
prudent management of the Bank.
We want to provideunusually information to all of our stakeholders about our
Argentine portfolio in order to explain our strategy for this difficult and
complex problem. We have been successful working with our borrowers in Argentina
to help them adjust to the new realities in that market, thereby improving our
chances of collection in the future. This approach resulted in our unpaid
interest from Argentine borrowers as of March 31, 2002 amounting to less than
$0.8 million. Our strategy is to continue to reduce our overall exposure, which
at March 31, 2002 was $1,001 million, down approximately $158 million since
year-end.
The market's perception of our exposure in Argentina, coupled with the recent
lowering of BLADEX's credit ratings, have hindered our ability to maintain an
ideal funding mix. We are about to undertake a program of meetings with our
depositors and correspondents to help them better understand our strategy in
Argentina, and present details about the progress we are making in that market.
Concurrently, we will explain our program of diversifying our revenue bases and
positioning the Bank for future growth in fee-based income," Mr. Castaneda
concluded.
The following table sets forth the condensed profit and loss statements for the
first quarter of 2002 and the first and fourth quarters of 2001:

amounted to $146 million, the same as at December 31, 2001, which represented

local corporation.
As part of the Bank's continued, close monitoring of its Argentine portfolio and
of the adequacy of its loan loss provisions, dedicated teams from BLADEX have

authorities, rating agencies and other banks. The Bank is pursuing a proactive
collection policy in the country, and continues to diligently manage its
Argentine portfolio.

million, the same as at December 31, 2001 and compared to $13 million at March

NET REVENUES
Net revenues (net interest income and commission income less commission expense
plus income from derivatives and hedging activities plus other income) for the
first quarter of 2002 decreased 27% compared to the first quarter of 2001. The
following table shows the components of net revenues for the periods set forth
below:
(In $ millions)

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income amounted to $23.3 million in the first quarter of 2002
compared to $30.6 million for the first quarter of 2001, representing a decrease
of 24%. The net interest margin (net interest income divided by the average
balance of interest-earning assets) and net interest spread (average yield
earned on interest-earning assets less the average rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities) for the first quarter of 2002 were 1.72% and 1.30%, respectively.
The table below sets forth the net interest margin and the net interest spread
for each of the periods listed below:
IQ01 IVQ01 IQ02
Net Interest Margin 2.17% 1.82% 1.72%
Net Interest Spread 1.26% 1.33% 1.30%
The Bank estimates that the decline of 10 basis points in the net interest
margin during the first quarter of 2002, as compared to the fourth quarter of
2001, was mainly due to:
i. Lower interest rates, which generated a lower return on the Bank's available
capital funds, resulting in a negative effect of 7 basis points on the net
interest margin;
ii. Higher lending margins, which had a positive effect of 7 basis points on the
net interest margin;
iii. Higher marginal cost of funds, which had a negative effect of 5 basis
points on the net interest margin; and
iv. The cost of financing nonaccruing loans and impaired investments, which had
a negative effect of 5 basis points on the net interest margin.
COMMISSION INCOME
Commission income for the first quarter of 2002 was $2.8 million, compared to
$3.6 million for the first quarter of 2001. The following table shows the
components of commission income for the periods indicated:
