The Dominican Republic Superintendency of Banks (SB) held meetings with the financial intermediation entities it supervises and their industry associations to share its analysis of 2024 sector results and set out its strategic approach for 2025, including key system indicators, the risk outlook and the criteria intended to guide its regulatory agenda. For 2025, the SB plans improvements to its risk-based supervision methodology and supervisory technology (SupTech) tools, a market conduct supervision programme, an initiative to support micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, and updates to service applications used by supervised firms. It also intends to relaunch Misión Centinela in a 2.0 version focused on protecting financial services users from fraudulent activity, continue consolidating its ISO-based management system and process automation, and implement a data governance programme, alongside the 2025–2028 Institutional Strategic Plan and the 2025 Annual Operating Plan. The meetings were held in January at the SB’s headquarters with representatives of the main banking associations and supervised institutions.
