general provisions in order to provide in the administrative sphere the implementation

of various regulatory measures established in the General Law of Organizations and Auxiliary Activities of

Treasury and Public Credit to constitute and operate as a general warehouse, as well as the

prudential norms that such auxiliary credit organizations must observe;

That on March 26, 2024, the "Decree reforming, adding and repealing various provisions of the General Law of Titles and Credit Operations and

That the legal reform indicated in the previous paragraph has as its main public policy objectives

strengthen legal certainty, increase transactionality and, consequently, improve

conditions for access to financing, mainly of the agricultural sector, through the digitization of

the deposit certificates issued by general warehouses;

That to achieve the above, the legislator determined that deposit certificates will only be

issued in electronic, optical or any other technology, through the cryptographic system(s) that the issuers of said credit titles determine;

That another of the regulatory measures established in the Reform Decree focuses on the elimination

of the pledge bond, and instead, the electronic deposit certificate must incorporate the data and

information related to pledge credits that, if any, are constituted on the goods or

merchandise covered by said credit title;

That, in the event of a plurality of cryptographic systems, the legislator determined that they

must be interconnected, in order to guarantee to legitimate holders, pledge creditors,

supervisory and judicial authorities and other participants in operations carried out under the

protection of electronic deposit certificates that the information of the titles is accessible;

That, taking into account the scope of the analyzed legal reform, general warehouses

must establish a cryptographic system that performs the necessary functionalities to guarantee the

issuance of deposit certificates and the security of operations related to said titles; and
