As of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 the most representative balance within other financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss related to assets and liabilities linked to insurance products where the policyholder bears the risk ("Unit -Link"). This type of product is sold only in Spain, through BBVA Seguros SA, insurance and reinsurance and Unnim Vida SA, insurance and reinsurance, and in Mexico through Seguros Bancomer SA de CV.

Since the liabilities linked to insurance products in which the policyholder assumes the risk are valued the same way as the assets associated to these insurance products, there is no credit risk component bore by the Group in relation to these liabilities.
