Rule · SMV · 6 Nov 2025
Issuers of the General Regime and Alternative Securities Market must ensure securities registered in the RPMV under the same class or issuance remain homogeneous and fungible. When series differ in non-accessory aspects like issuance term or currency, they must be registered as separate classes, using a common prospectus that specifies distinct risk factors and assembly implications. Issuers must verify document integrity via https://apps.firmaperu.gob.pe/web/validador.xhtml and strictly observe the OPP Regulation, the Manual, and General Management Resolution No. 067-2000-EF/94.11.

2 "K. Criteria to determine homogeneity within a class of securities, for the purposes of what is established in Article 10 of the Regulation on Primary Public Offerings and Sale of Securities Securities, approved by CONASEV Resolution No. 141-98-EF/94.10. (…) In such a case, a common prospectus may be used; however, with the aim of safeguarding the transparency of the securities market, when relevant, the information prospectus must contain specific risk factors for each series, point out the inconveniences that may arise from the fact that holders of securities from said series meet in a single assembly having interests that may be opposed, and indicate any other aspect or implication derived from said fact. Notwithstanding the foregoing, depending on the magnitude of the differences between the series, separate prospectuses and risk classifications may be required for all or some of them."
