Regulatory framework and summary

The Legal Framework of the Argentine Financial System paints a comprehensive picture of our current legal framework. This regulatory framework is developed by the BCRA based on data published in the Official Gazette of Argentina and Legislative Information (Infoleg, official source of the Ministry of Economy and Public Finance). It is updated annually.

Moreover, the BCRA publishes a report of its main regulations entitled Regulatory Framework every six months.

Summaries of volatilities and other parameters required by current regulations and calculated in accordance with a pre-established methodology are published by the BCRA on a monthly basis.

The BCRA also compiles consolidated texts of both general regulations and reporting systems to which financial institutions are subject.

Consolidated texts of general regulations

Consolidated texts offer access to current regulations, their history and the latest amendments flagged by formatted text.

The table of contents contains hyperlinks to the paragraphs and the table of correlations with descriptive notes on changes over time.

The “Latest amendments” section provides access to the changes introduced to the relevant consolidated text.

For a better understanding of the BCRA’s regulatory framework, you may access a guide to current regulations and acronyms used in circulars and communications which are issued as under Communications A 1 and A 3593.
