SUPV, Grupo Supervielle S.A.
Grupo Supervielle is an Argentine financial group built around a bank that takes deposits and lends to individuals and businesses. It earns the spread between what it pays depositors and what it charges borrowers, and adds fee income from services that include a digital brokerage, IOL invertironline, through which customers buy and sell investments. In short, it is a peso-denominated lender and financial-services shop in Argentina.
Our main subsidiaries are the Bank, the seventh largest private bank in Argentina in terms of loans, and IOL invertironline, Argentina's leading digital retail brokerage platform specialized in online trading and other financial investment services.
Our main shareholder, Julio Patricio Supervielle, has a strong and long-standing commitment to the Argentine financial system.

What it sells, where the money comes from, the kind of company it is.
The business in brief
read the 10-K →What this business is and what moves its needle, from its own SEC filings.
- What moves the needle
- A bank is bought on two things: the cost and stickiness of its deposit funding, and the discipline of its lending — so watch whether it gathers cheap deposits people leave in place, and whether loan losses stay contained when borrowers are pushed into refinancing agreements. Both sit inside Argentina, where inflation, the peso, and a Central Bank that can cap credit when it judges growth excessive govern the result more than anything management does; the bad case is a macro shock that erodes the spread and the loan book at once. Fee lines like the brokerage can soften that, but the franchise question is whether deposits and credit quality hold through the cycle — the record below carries the figures.
- Is it a good business?
- Return on equity has sat below the cost of equity (median -10%, above 12% in only 3 of 8 years). The cycle and the loan book decide this one; weigh the recession years in the record, not the average, and read the 10-K.

Owner’s Scorecard
Is it a good business?
- Return on equity 13%StrongNet income ARS 104.5B ÷ equity ARS 797.7BIndustry peers: median 12%
What this means
The bank's north star, what it earns on shareholders' capital. Cost of equity is roughly 10%, so a return durably above that builds value and below it destroys it. One year is noisy; the durability across a full credit cycle is what counts.
- Very high (≥18%)Net income ÷ (equity − goodwill ARS 58.9B − intangibles ARS 166.0B)Industry peers: median 14%
What this means
The cleaner return, stripping out the goodwill paid for past acquisitions. This is the number a buyer of the whole bank actually earns on the hard capital.
- Not enough dataIndustry peers: median 60%
What this means
Noninterest expense or revenue missing.
Is it sound?
- Capital (equity / assets) 17.7%Well capitalizedEquity ARS 797.7B ÷ assets ARS 4.51T
What this means
A plain-English leverage read: how much of the balance sheet is the owners' own money. This is a rough proxy; the regulatory figure is the CET1 ratio, which is risk-weighted and reported in the filing. The point is the same, how much loss the bank can absorb before depositors are at risk.
- Deposit funding 70%Deposit-fundedDeposits ARS 3.17T ÷ assets ARS 4.51T
What this means
Low-cost, sticky deposits are a bank's real moat, the cheap raw material it lends out at a spread. A bank funded mostly by deposits earns more durably than one that rents its money in the wholesale market.
- Credit cost —Not enough data
What this means
Provision or net interest income missing.
The franchise and the credit cycle
- Not enough data
What this means
The deposit mix isn't cleanly tagged in the filings' structured data; the funding read above carries what is.
- Not enough data
What this means
Not derivable from the filings' structured data — some filers carry recoveries only on segment axes, and a gross figure dressed as net would be a wrong number.
All figures as filed; the source filing is linked above.

The price
What a price has to assume.
What the price implies
price / tangible bookEnter the US price, in dollars: the NYSE/Nasdaq quote you hold. Per the filing's own cover, “American Depositary Shares, each representing 5 Class”; Grupo Supervielle S.A. reports in ARS, so every figure in this tool is stated per ADS and translated at ARS 1 = $0.001 (2026-08-20, reference rate) so your dollar quote reconciles exactly. The record tables elsewhere on this page remain as filed, in ARS.
A bank is worth a multiple of its tangible book value, and the multiple it deserves is set by the return it earns on that book. Type today’s price; we show what you would be paying against what Grupo Supervielle S.A.’s record justifies.
Tangible book / share, delivered107%/yr’19→’24
The justified multiple is (return on tangible equity − growth) ÷ (cost of equity − growth). A bank earning exactly its cost of equity is worth about one times tangible book; the premium above that prices each point of durable excess return. A higher cost of equity lowers the justified multiple for a bank.

Graham applied the same standards to financial enterprises (Intelligent Investor ch.14): the 15× multiple cap on averaged earnings, and P/E times price-to-book at most 22.5. The gate marks the bargain-hunter’s floor, not a verdict.
A dated snapshot of the price you typed, the assumptions you set, and what the page showed for them. A snapshot is never edited after it is saved. Your notebook is yours alone — the commitment states what is stored and what we will never do.
Tangible book $383M on 88M shares, a −13% normalized return on it. The dials set the multiple such a return would justify; your price sets the multiple you are paying. It assumes the bank keeps earning that return; a credit cycle, a rate shock or a bad acquisition changes it, which is what the record and the 10-K are for.
