Key Financial Metrics
The filing text does not provide specific values for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. This document serves as a cover sheet for a non-financial announcement rather than a financial results report.

Guidance, Outlook, and Material Events
The primary purpose of this filing is to disclose an external recognition event:
- Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Recognition: The Carbon Disclosure Project has recognized both Itaúsa and Itaú as "Leaders in Transparency."
The filing does not contain management commentary on financial outlook, specific risks, contingencies, or unusual items beyond the referenced sustainability achievement.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the full text of the CDP announcement (Exhibit 99.1) to understand the specific criteria for the "Leader in Transparency" designation.
- Review the company's most recent Form 20-F or quarterly earnings release for actual financial performance metrics, as this 6-K does not contain them.
- Confirm the date of the CDP recognition to ensure it aligns with the October 2014 reporting window.
