The Argentina Securities Commission has approved General Resolution 1141 to clarify the conditions for cheque transactions in the capital markets and to reinforce safeguards against improper conduct. The measure keeps the existing limit for CNV-registered obligated entities, as applicable, of no more than two cheque payments per client per day, covering both physical and electronic cheques. The resolution adds operational clarifications intended to preserve transaction traceability and support market transparency and integrity. It also makes clear that cheques submitted for use in capital markets operations remain unrestricted in number, and that CNV rules do not limit the number of endorsements that may be made on those cheques. The update follows General Resolution 1139, which adjusted anti-money laundering standards for CNV-registered agents without changing existing tax rules.
