The Superintendence of the Securities Market of Panama mandates that Pension Fund Investment Administrators submit the Single Chart of Accounts (PUC) using the dedicated 'Pensions' user profile, effective with the May 2026 reporting period. Administrators are explicitly prohibited from using the Investment Administrator user profile for this submission and must ensure their system administrators enable the specific PUC/Pensions access. The required PUC templates are available on the regulator's website under the SERI Forms section for Pension and Severance Funds.

To Compliance Officers Pension Fund Investment Administrators. Panama City
REFERENCE: Single Chart of Accounts (PUC) / Pension Fund Investment Administrators (AFP).
Dear Sirs:
With the objective of optimizing our reporting and strengthening the efficiency of our supervision, we inform you that, starting with the submission of figures corresponding to the month of May 2026, the Single Chart of Accounts (PUC) must be submitted under the Pensions user profile.
It is important to highlight that the Investment Administrator user profile must not be used for this process; it is fundamental that the system administrator responsible for the entity enable access to the PUC/Pensions for its use.
