Circular CONAU 1-1714 R.I. Operational Risk Event Database. Minimum Threshold Adjustments

The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic issued Communication “A” 8389 to update the minimum threshold for its Operational Risk Event Database, setting it at $355,000 (or foreign currency equivalent) for the 2026 reporting period. Financial entities must report all quantifiable losses, opportunity costs, and clearly identifiable quasi-losses that individually or collectively exceed this threshold within a given month. The updated circular also mandates consolidated reporting for repetitive losses, specifies foreign currency conversion rules, and requires automated systems to maintain data integrity, confidentiality, and security in accordance with existing technology risk standards.
