  • Annual Report 2020
    1 Cencosud Annual Report - 2020 Letter from the President Dear shareholders, It is an honor for me to be the interim replacement of my father, Horst Paulmann Kemna, creator and soul of Cencosud. Just like he taught us, we will keep his focus on Cencosud culture and the careful attention and care for details and the customer. Service, service, service. From a little restaurant to a transnational corporation, with more than 115,000 committed employees, following a path sometimes winding and no stranger to difficulties, but has been able to successfully face it with its passion, vision, and unique leadership. In that context, I present to you Cencosud's Integrated Annual Report and the Company's financial statements corresponding to the tax year 2020, as well as the challenges we had to face during this period. The year 2020 has been extremely complicated because from the very beginning we had to deal with the COVID- 19 pandemic, which is affecting virtually every person in the world and has resulted in significant changes in our daily lives. Some others, like remote working or e-commerce, already were on the horizon. However, the pandemic has accelerated their incorporation into society and these changes are here to stay. In this period, our focus was to look after the health and safety of our employees. I especially want to thank your efforts, dedication, and commitment. Without them we couldn't have kept the continuous operations of our business units and deliver essential goods to the communities we are in. While Chilean national economy shrank by 5.8% in 2020 -the biggest decrease since the crisis of 1982-, Chile had a better performance compared to her neighbor nations and, according to estimates, would be the first Latin American economy to recover.

  • Competition Law and Policy in Chile
    Chile – Accession Report on Competition Law and Policy 2010 This report on Competition Law, Policy and Enforcement was prepared in the OECD Competition Committee as part of the process of Chile’s accession to OECD membership. The Committee was requested to examine the core competition features and to provide OECD Council with a formal opinion on the willingness and ability of Chile to assume the obligations of OECD membership. In doing so, the Competition Committee assessed the degree of coherence of Chile‘s competition law and policy with that of OECD Member countries. This report, prepared as part of OECD accession review, highlights some of the key challenges facing Chile in the field of competition policy. After completion of its internal procedures, Chile became an OECD member on 7 May 2010. Chile – Peer Review of Competition Law and Policy (2004) COMPETITION LAW AND POLICY IN CHILE -- 2010 -- ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT The OECD is a unique forum where governments work together to address the economic, social and environmental challenges of globalisation. The OECD is also at the forefront of efforts to understand and to help governments respond to new developments and concerns, such as corporate governance, the information economy and the challenges of an ageing population. The Organisation provides a setting where governments can compare policy experiences, seek answers to common problems, identify good practice and work to co-ordinate domestic and international policies. The OECD member countries are: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States.

SONDA presentó a marzo de 2020 un incremento del endeudamiento bruto por sobre los niveles acordes con su clasificación, lo que se mitiga por una posición de caja fuerte, derivada del levantamiento anticipado de deuda para futuras inversiones y de la venta de activos no estratégicos. Fitch proyecta que las medidas crediticias brutas retomarán niveles menores de 2,0 veces (x) en el mediano plazo, lo que es congruente con la estrategia financiera de SONDA y con el conservador perfil crediticio que ha mantenido a lo largo de los años. La posición de caja sólida debería permitirle a la compañía enfrentar los importantes desafíos de 2020, incluido los efectos de la contingencia ocasionada por el coronavirus sobre la dinámica comercial, y mantener expectativas de crecimiento moderadas para el período 2020 a 2022.
