The Argentina Securities Commission met with Argentina's Financial Information Unit to review their common agenda and agreed to continue a joint working group focused on identifying risks in the capital markets. The work will focus in particular on obliged entities in the sector and on virtual asset service providers as newer participants in the system, with both authorities emphasizing that joint action should help detect illicit activity without creating unnecessary burdens for legitimate private sector business. The update reflects an existing CNV-UIF cooperation agenda covering information exchange and coordination, especially on anti-money laundering prevention in the capital markets and the regulation of virtual asset service providers. The agenda also includes training, feedback and activities with industry chambers, while UIF's new head said he wants clearer and more predictable criteria, stable channels of interaction and an updated risk-based approach across sectors.
