The Central Bank of Brazil issued Resolution No. 547 to amend Resolution No. 498, establishing updated requirements, procedures, and conditions for the accreditation of Information Technology Service Providers (PSTI) within the National Financial System. The regulation introduces strict criteria for controllers and administrators, including enhanced reputation checks, technical capacity proof, and a minimum capital requirement of R$15 million, while explicitly prohibiting investment funds from acting as controllers. It further mandates robust internal controls, annual risk reporting, independent audits, and detailed exit plans to ensure the stability of the Brazilian Payment System.
