NOTE 43. CONSOLIDATION CRITERIA AND SCOPE
Consolidation criteria
The consolidated financial statements group the financial state-
ments of the parent company and those of the subsidiaries and joint
ventures, as drawn up at the closing date.
Consolidation is achieved by applying the following consolidation
methods.
Full consolidation for the subsidiaries
Full consolidation consists of incorporating all the assets and liabili-
ties of the subsidiaries, as well as income and charges.
Minority interests are shown in a separate item of both the balance
sheet and the income statement.
The full consolidation method is applied when the parent company
holds exclusive control.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared at the
same date as that on which the consolidated subsidiaries prepared
their own financial statements.
Consolidation under the equity method for the joint ventures
The equity method consists of replacing the book value of the secu-
rities by the equity share of the entity. More details are provided in
Note 2, paragraph C.
