Rule · BCRA · 17 Dec 1991 · A 1911
The Central Bank of the Republic of Argentina imposes specific penalty charges on financial entities for minimum cash deficiencies recorded in australes during December 1991. The penalty structure applies a 1.64% monthly effective rate for deficiencies up to 10% of the requirement, 1.4 times the maximum rediscount rate of December 1991 for deficiencies between 10% and 13%, and twice that rate for deficiencies exceeding 13%. Deficiencies not subject to the maximum charge are not considered defaults for other applicable provisions, nor do they trigger the obligation to submit an adequacy plan. The standard penalty scale, previously communicated via Communication "A" 1783, is restored starting from January 1992.
