Mr./Ms. General Manager At Your Office

Reference: Update and administration of contact links and authorized users before the Financial Analysis Unit and the Superintendence of Banks of Panama

Mr./Ms. General Manager:

The Superintendence of Banks of Panama (SBP) reiterates to the obligated subjects the importance of maintaining updated their contact links, authorized users and other data registered before this Superintendence and the Financial Analysis Unit (UAF).

The Compliance Link is the point of contact with the SBP and the UAF to receive, attend to and manage information requirements, guaranteeing timely, secure and confidential communications.

Therefore, each obligated subject must periodically review the information of its links, officials or compliance officers, institutional contacts and authorized users in the enabled channels.

The lack of updating, especially when a person ceases to exercise their functions or terminates their relationship with the obligated subject, can compromise the confidentiality, the security of the information and the attention timely to information requirements.

The obligated subjects must validate, update, substitute or revoke timely the accesses and contacts registered before the SBP and the UAF and inform immediately any change in designations, replacements, disassociations, functions, institutional emails or other relevant data.

Likewise, they must preserve the confidentiality and reserve of the information exchanged with the SBP and the UAF, maintaining internal controls that prevent unauthorized access, misuse or disclosures contrary to current regulations.

We thank the General Manager for imparting to the personnel under their charge the pertinent instructions for the compliance of the present.

Sincerely,

Milton Ayón Wong Superintendent AR/aa
