The Central Bank of Uruguay’s Financial Services Superintendency has required persons, entities and independently segregated asset pools brought into its regulatory perimeter by a legal expansion to submit a sworn digital declaration on their activities. The requirement applies to those that take funds from the public or solicit investment with an expectation of return, and is intended to give the central bank visibility over operators already using these models before it issues detailed rules and sets supervisory plans. The declaration is mandatory for all entities carrying out these activities. Existing operators have 60 days from the resolution to file, while those starting later must do so before beginning operations. The Central Bank of Uruguay may request additional information if needed, and failure to submit the declaration may lead to sanctions under the applicable rules. The measure continues the strategy set out in August 2025, when the central bank proposed legislation to extend its perimeter to financial activities involving public savings that had previously fallen outside regulation.

The measure aims to give the central bank visibility over existing and new operators ahead of issuing detailed rules and supervisory plans, and non-compliance may result in sanctions under applicable rules, continuing the perimeter expansion strategy begun in August 2025.
