RESOLUTION modifying the General Provisions establishing the accounting criteria to which participants in the derivatives contracts market will be subject.
At the margin, a seal with the National Coat of Arms, which says: United Mexican States.- TREASURY.- Ministry of
Treasury and Public Credit.- National Banking and Securities Commission.
The National Banking and Securities Commission, based on articles 4, fractions II, V, XXXVI and
XXXVIII and 16, fraction I of the Law of the National Banking and Securities Commission; 98 Bis of the Law of
Credit Institutions, as well as on the Sixtieth of the Prudential Provisions to which
participants in the derivatives market will be subject, and
CONSIDERING
That, in accordance with article 78 of the General Law for Regulatory Improvement and with the purpose of reducing the
compliance cost of this Resolution, the National Banking and Securities Commission through
resolution published in the Official Journal of the Federation on December 26, 2017, reformed the
"General Provisions applicable to credit institutions", with the object of granting an
extension to the deadline to which multiple banking institutions were subject to constitute their
operational risk capital requirements;
That, in terms of the current accounting criteria, the National Banking and Securities Commission instructs
the entities subject to its regulation, to use the exchange rate to establish the equivalence of the
national currency with the United States dollar, being the FIX exchange rate (Fixed Exchange
Rate) published by the Bank of Mexico in the Official Journal of the Federation, a situation that allows maintaining
uniform criteria among said entities;
That the FIX exchange rate is determined by the Bank of Mexico based on an average of
cotizations from the wholesale foreign exchange market for operations settleable on the second next banking business day and that are obtained from foreign exchange transaction platforms and other electronic means with
representativeness in the foreign exchange market. The Bank of Mexico makes the FIX known starting from 12:00
hours of all banking business days, it is published in the Official Journal of the Federation one banking business day after the date of determination and is used to settle obligations denominated in dollars settleable in the Mexican Republic the day after the publication in said dissemination medium;
That, derived from the time that exists between the schedules established for the taking of samples used for
the determination of the FIX exchange rate in accordance with the applicable regulation issued by the Bank of
Mexico (from 9:00:00 to 9:59:00 hours; from 10:00:00 to 10:59:00 hours, and from 11:00:00 to
12:00:00 hours) and the value of the exchange rate at the close of the operating day used by the entities to close their operations (14:00 hours), differences arise between the exchange rate for purposes of
recognition in financial information and the exchange rates used in treasury areas, and
That, in attention to the foregoing, it is necessary to use an exchange rate published by the Bank of Mexico
that considers a broader sample window in order to be consistent with the close of the operating day, therefore it has resolved to issue the following:
