According to Instruction No. 7/2018 of 19th of June, which entered into force on 19th of June, Banking Financial Institutions should establish and maintain an independent exchange control function, reporting directly to a Director.

This function should verify the framework of the foreign exchange transactions in the business of the corporate client considering its nature, size and financial situation among other factors and, in the case of private clients, the framework of its circumstances and financial capacity within the process of monitoring provided for in the Law on Combating Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing.

The Instruction also establishes the sanctions in case of non-compliance with the norms established therein and determines that the Banking Financial Institutions have 60 days to comply with what the instruction sets.
