Circular CAMEX 1-1058: Foreign Exchange and Currency Adjustments
The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic issued Communication A 8361 to amend section 3.8.5 of its Foreign Exchange and Currency regulations, requiring financial entities and foreign exchange operators to obtain a client sworn statement committing to refrain from purchasing securities with foreign currency settlement for 90 calendar days after accessing funds. This restriction excludes primary subscriptions of resident-issued debt securities held for at least 15 business days, sales settled in foreign currency, and reinvestments of treasury or BCRA interest within 15 business days. The Bank will subsequently distribute updated reference sheets to implement these adjustments in the applicable regulatory framework.
