RESOLUTION modifying the General Provisions applicable to credit institutions

A seal with the National Coat of Arms appears at the margin, which reads: United Mexican States.- Ministry of Finance and Public Credit.- National Banking and Securities Commission.

The National Banking and Securities Commission, with the agreement of its Board of Directors, based on the provisions of Article 46 Bis 1, first paragraph and fraction IV of the Credit Institutions Law, as well as Articles 4, fractions XXXVI, XXXVIII, and 16, fractions I and VII of the National Banking and Securities Commission Law,

CONSIDERING

That in order for credit institutions to have multiple options for receiving payment for the credits they grant, which is carried out through third parties that are social service organizations, public trusts, or decentralized agencies subject to the supervision of the National Banking and Securities Commission, a procedure is established for institutions to request that the Commission exclude them from the regime regarding the contracting of third parties and commissionaires when they contract such third parties;

That in addition to the above, when credit institutions contract other institutions for the performance of their operations, since all can perform the operations directly, while being considered as having established solvency, it is deemed appropriate that such service provision be excluded from the regime mentioned in the previous paragraph, and

That regarding telecommunications services for the transmission of information, it is necessary to exclude credit institutions from the third-party and commissionaire contracting regime when they have certain mechanisms that safeguard the information of their users, has resolved to issue the following:
