What the Numbers Say It Is WorthThe Fair Value Range
Our framework reads AVOID: it trades at roughly a 28% discount to our $478.59 fair value, moderate competitive moat, 12.00% revenue growth.
Fair value range in USD, drawn from the 2026-09-09 screen. The gold marker is the market price at the same screen. A 27.5% margin of safety to the base estimate.
Third-party analyst targets: 14 covering, consensus Buy. The average target sits +19% from the screen price.

The Business, in Plain WordsPeruvian bank clears metrics yet fails ethics
Picture a regional lender moving money across Peru and a few neighbours. It looks steady enough on the surface. We pass on Credicorp because the ethical screen rules it out on business activity, full stop.
Revenue is growing 26 percent, margins sit at 33 percent and return on equity reaches 19 percent. Forward earnings trade at 11.6 times with a moderate moat. Those figures explain the buy ratings from thirteen analysts, yet none of it moves the ethical verdict.
Currency swings, political noise in Peru and the usual banking cyclicality add real downside. The modest margin of safety versus our fair value does not change the screen result. Analysis, not advice.
