The Superintendencia del Mercado de Valores (SMV) archives the administrative sanctioning procedure against MGI Sociedad Administradora de Fondos de Inversión S.A. – MGI SAFI S.A. for four minor infractions related to the late reporting of important events. The SMV rejects the defense of induced error regarding the reporting of the start of activities for two investment funds, confirming that the system provided sufficient differentiation options, but accepts the defense regarding the reporting of capital increase results which occurred on a holiday, allowing submission on the next business day. Consequently, the charges are dismissed and the case is closed without imposing sanctions.

3.2. Of the charges formulated
3.3. Of the defenses presented
ON THE CHARGES a) AND b) INDICATED IN THE THIRD CONSIDERATION OF THIS RESOLUTION
Regarding this, concerning the charges made, described in letters a) and b) of the third consideration, MGI SAFI states that on July 06, 2021, FUND 1 and FUND 2 obtained their registration in the RPMV and that subsequently, due to an involuntary operational error, they reported the start of activities date as July 07, 2021, with the intention of communicating the start of the placement of the referred funds, which –according to what is stated by MGI SAFI– occurred on the same day it was reported, that is, July 08, 2021;
This, according to MGI SAFI, is supported by the fact that the effective date of the start of operations of FUND 1 was October 28, 2021 and
PERÚ Ministry of Economy and Finance
SMV
Securities Market Superintendence
Electronically signed document within the framework of Law No. 27269, Law of Digital Signatures and Certificates, its Regulations and modifications. The integrity of the document and authorship in the case of FUND 2, it was November 26, 2021, which, states MGI SAFI, were communicated as important events within the established deadline, on October 28, 2021 5 and November 25, 2021 6, respectively;
Likewise, MGI SAFI maintains that the operational error is related to the lack of breakdown of the menu “Information Obligations > Important Events”, which establishes the same channel for sending the corresponding information for the start of placement of fund shares and start of activities/operations, so instead of reporting the start of the placement of the shares, the start of activities of FUND 1 and FUND 2 was erroneously reported;
Additionally, the administrating company states that the same important event generated contemplates as subject “Dates of Share Placement / Fund Activities”, which, according to MGI SAFI, motivated the lack of perception of the error in the information reported through the MVNet platform;
Thus, MGI SAFI alleges that there is an induced error as a cause for exemption, given that at the time of making the report, there were circumstances that induced the error to the administrating company, because, according to the administrating company, there is a lack of breakdown in the reporting channel established in MVNet, since the option enabled by the MVNet system groups in the same route the options named “Start of share placement” and “Start of activities/operations”, without providing differentiation criteria that allow the user to distinguish the type of event to report. In this sense, MGI SAFI states that this technical configuration generated an expectation that both options were reported equally, under the same channel, without the option of differentiation;
Likewise, MGI SAFI supports the induced error in the ambiguous wording of the title of the form generated by MVNet, since the self-generated document in MVNet, after selecting or filling in data to report as an important event, contemplates the same title for the report of “Start of share placement”, as well as for the report of “Start of Activities”, which is “Communication of placement date / Fund Activities”. Which, according to MGI SAFI, this circumstance generated confusion and the expectation that it was reporting the information correctly;
Consequently, MGI SAFI invokes as an exemption from responsibility the confusion or ambiguity generated by the section and disposition of the information reporting channels established in MVNet;
ON THE CHARGES c) AND d) INDICATED IN THE THIRD CONSIDERATION OF THIS RESOLUTION
Regarding the charges made, described in letters c) and d) of the third consideration of this resolution, MGI SAFI confirms that on April 15, 2022 the public offering and subsequent subscription of new participation shares of FUND 1 and FUND 2 concluded, which was reported via important events on April 18, 2022. Since, states the administrating company, April 15, 2022 was a holiday, and therefore considering what is established in Article 9, numeral 9.1 of the RHI, which establishes that in case the important event occurs on a non-working day, it must be communicated by the next working day, this information was communicated on April 18, 2022, after verifying the transfers made on the holidays;
Additionally, MGI SAFI states that although the RHI indicates that these important events must be published before the start of the trading session of the centralized trading mechanism in which its values are listed, it must be taken into account that the shares of FUND 1 and FUND 2 are not listed and that since April 15, 2022 was a holiday, deferred interbank transfers were not processed or settled until April 18, 2022, so on that date the mentioned interbank transfers were verified with the aim of communicating the exact result of the capital increase;
3.4 Evaluation of the defenses
ON THE CHARGES a) AND b) INDICATED IN THE THIRD CONSIDERATION OF THIS RESOLUTION
Regarding the alleged induced error as a cause for exemption from responsibility alleged by MGI SAFI as a result of the lack of breakdown in the reporting channel of the MVNet system, and of an ambiguous wording of the title of the form generated by said system, it must be indicated that although the system contemplates the same selection route for the communication –as an important event– of the start of placement of fund shares and start of activities/operations of the same, it must be specified that, as a next step, and after selecting said route, the system offers two options to choose from in order to specify the type of important event that is intended to be communicated. This is even reflected in one of the images provided by MGI SAFI with its defense writing, where the following can be observed:
Taking this into account, it is appreciated that MGI SAFI could know the type of information it was communicating, so it is not possible to affirm that an expectation was generated for the administrating company regarding that the start of placement of fund shares and start of activities/operations of the fund could be communicated equally, without the option of differentiation;
Likewise, it is incongruent to allege a supposed induced error that, according to the administrating company, is generated by the information reporting channels established in MVNet, when MGI SAFI itself has reported, prior to the important events subject of analysis of this sanctioning procedure, the information referred to the start of placement of shares and start of activities/operations of funds under its administration as can be appreciated, by way of example, in the following detail 7:
Likewise, the statement relative to the title of the form generated by the MVNet system, to communicate the important event, having caused confusion and expectation in the administrating company that it was reporting the information correctly, is contradictory, since, as indicated, prior to the communication of the important events subject of analysis, MGI SAFI communicated on more than one occasion information as an important event of the start of placement of shares and start of activities/operations of funds under its administration, which evidences that MGI SAFI already knew the procedure for communicating said information to the RPMV, and therefore the criteria that allows distinguishing the information to be communicated;
Consequently, taking into account that Article 257, letter e) of the TUO LPAG establishes that it constitutes an exemption from responsibility for infractions “The error induced by the Administration or by a confusing or illegal administrative provision”, according to what was stated above, in the present case it has not been evidenced that the alleged error has its origin in an action by the Administration or in a defective administrative provision, but on the contrary it would be the result of the own interpretation or lack of a diligent action by the administrated, that is, by MGI SAFI, so that in the present case the case of exemption from responsibility invoked by MGI SAFI is not present;
Without prejudice to what has been stated, it must be mentioned that considering one of the arguments exposed by MGI SAFI in its defense writing, it has been verified, according to the information on file in the RPMV, that the start of operations of FUND 1 and FUND 2, occurred on October 28, 2021 8, and November 26, 2021 9, respectively; which were communicated as important events and within the corresponding deadline, in accordance with what is provided in the RHI;
Likewise, in line with the above, it is observed that on August 12, 2021 10 MGI SAFI sent a communication to the SMV, through which the administrating company requested the annulment of the start of operations dates of FUND 1 and FUND 2, specifying that at the date of said communication, both funds were still in the placement stage and had not yet met the necessary requirements to start operations. It should be specified that, based on this information, the information of the Public Registry of the Securities Market was updated;
In this sense, taking into account what has been stated, MGI SAFI complied with communicating the important events referred to the start of operations of FUND 1 and FUND 2 11, within the deadline stipulated in Article 9 of the RHI, so it corresponds to archive the charges subject of analysis;
ON THE CHARGES c) AND d) INDICATED IN SECTION II OF THIS RESOLUTION
Regarding this, as MGI SAFI has stated in its defense writing, on April 15, 2022 the public offering and subsequent subscription of new participation shares of FUND 1 and FUND 2 concluded. Likewise, as observed in the important events sent by MGI SAFI, the administrating company made the communication of said information to the RPMV on April 18, 2022;
However, it should be noted that according to the calendar of the year 2022, Friday, April 15, 2022 was a non-working day, therefore, in accordance with what is provided in Article 9, subsection 9.1, second paragraph of the RHI 12, the important events described above should have been communicated by MGI
File No. 2021040848.
File No. 2021044897.
File No. 2021031234.
It should be mentioned that, in the case of the important event referred to the start of operations of FUND 2 (File No. 2021044897), the communication to the RPMV was made one day before the effective date of the start of operations, that is, November 25, 2021.
“Article 9.- Opportunity to Inform Important Events (…) In case the important event occurs or that the issuer takes knowledge of it on a non-working day, it must communicate it by the next working day at the latest and before the start of the trading session of the centralized trading mechanism in which its values are listed.

SAFI to the RPMV by the next business day following the said non-business day, that is, Monday, April 18, 2022. In this sense, considering that MGI SAFI referred the important facts subject to analysis on April 18, 2022, the administrator company carried out the communications of the important facts corresponding to FUND 1 and FUND 2, in accordance with the applicable regulations, taking into account moreover that the shares of FUND 1 and FUND 2 are not listed in the centralized negotiation mechanism of the BVL;
In view of the above, having communicated in a timely manner the important facts subject to analysis in the present sanctioning procedure, it is not appropriate to sanction MGI SAFI for the charges imputed, so it is appropriate to proceed to its archiving;
In view of the above, it is concluded that MGI SAFI has disproven the charges imputed;
