The Argentina Securities Commission (CNV) has opened a public consultation on changes to financial trust rules that would strengthen asset disclosures and broaden access to automatic public offering authorization. Direct and indirect investment structures would become eligible under the expanded medium impact category where both primary and secondary offerings are directed exclusively to qualified investors. The proposed expansion aligns with the CNV's broader shift from prior approval toward automatic authorization in its capital markets reforms. The draft would clarify and expand disclosure requirements where trust assets include interests in other vehicles or entities, including information provided in prospectuses. It would also define financial trusts constituted as direct and indirect investment funds, accommodating different forms of financing and participation in productive and economic projects. Specific provisions would address subscriptions in kind and exchanges during primary placements of financial trusts.
