The Superintendency of Banks of Panama held an update session on Panama’s new Civil Procedure Code at its premises under a cooperation agreement with the Judicial Branch, aiming to keep its lawyers current following the code’s entry into force. The Superintendency framed the training as supporting consistent criteria between judicial activity and the state’s regulatory function, and as strengthening procedural capabilities for legal work linked to supervision, regulation, and institutional defense. The new code was described as a structural shift in civil proceedings, incorporating orality, immediacy, concentration, and greater speed; the programme covered the transformation of the civil process, key reforms, the ordinary process, judicial communications, preliminary and final hearings, precautionary measures, and appeal mechanisms.
