Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco or Company), observing its commitment to maintaining its shareholders and the market in general informed of the facts related to the so-called “Operação Zelotes”, announced that it has been subpoenaed, this time, by the General Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Finance about Opening Administrative Accountability of Legal Person. This procedure is intended to establish any administrative practice of acts against the public administration. The subpoena allows Bradesco to accompany all supporting acts of the prosecution.

The Company reiterates its previous releases in the sense that it has not realized any proposal, hiring or payment to anyone, for any kind of advantage in the Administrative Council of Tax Appeals (CARF).

It also informs that the prosecution in CARF, object of verification, was under the sponsorship of renowned tax lawyers and was tried unanimously in disfavor of Bradesco in 2014.

Bradesco reiterates its high standards of ethical conduct and reaffirms its trust in the full operation of justice and of the bodies of public administration control.
