La UIF simplifica el intercambio de información para la prevención del lavado de activos entre organismos de control

El 31 de marzo de 2026 entró en vigencia la Resolución N° 35/2026 de la Unidad de Información Financiera (la “Resolución” y la “UIF”, respectivamente) que regula el intercambio de información sobre Prevención del Lavado de Activos, Financiación del Terrorismo y Financiamiento de la Proliferación de Armas de Destrucción Masiva (PLA/FT/FP) entre el Banco Central de la República Argentina, la Comisión Nacional de Valores, la Superintendencia de Seguros de la Nación y el Instituto Nacional de Asociativismo y Economía Social (los “Organismos”), o con sus pares extranjeros.

La Resolución deroga la Resolución UIF N° 233/2025, que había establecido un mecanismo de intercambio que obligaba a los Organismos a informar a la UIF sobre cada movimiento, contenido y objeto de la información compartida, imponiendo un plazo de cinco días para remitir las respuestas. 

La nueva Resolución simplifica este proceso al disponer que el intercambio sea directo entre los Organismos, aunque manteniendo la facultad de la UIF de requerir información actualizada o con fines estadísticos cuando lo considere necesario.

La Resolución establece las siguientes pautas:

  • Los intercambios deben realizarse directamente entre los Organismos o con organismos similares extranjeros, garantizando siempre la confidencialidad.
  • Los requerimientos deben cursarse mediante un sistema de gestión documental electrónica que cumpla con estándares de seguridad y resguardo de información.
  • Cada solicitud debe detallar el motivo, la información precisa requerida y el nivel de urgencia.
  • La información sólo puede utilizarse para los fines previstos y no puede ser transmitida a terceros sin autorización expresa del organismo remitente.
  • Todo intercambio bajo este régimen se considera emanado de la propia UIF y está alcanzado por el deber de secreto legal.
Para mayor información, por favor contactar a María Gabriela Grigioni.
 

UIF simplifies information exchange for anti-money laundering prevention among oversight agencies

On March 31, 2026, Resolution No. 35/2026 of the Financial Information Unit (the “Resolution” and “UIF”, respectively) entered into force, modifying the exchange of information regarding the Prevention of Money Laundering, Financing of Terrorism, and Financing of the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (AML/CFT/CFP) between the Argentine Central Bank (BCRA), the National Securities Commission (CNV), the Superintendence of Insurance of the Nation (SSN), and the National Institute of Associationism and Social Economy (INAES) (the “Agencies”), or with their foreign counterparts.

The Resolution repeals UIF Resolution No. 233/2025, which had established an exchange mechanism that required Agencies to report each movement, content, and purpose of the shared information to the UIF, further imposing a 5 business day deadline to forward such responses to the UIF. 

The new Resolution simplifies this process by providing for direct exchange between the Agencies, while maintaining UIF’s power to request updated information or data for statistical purposes as deemed necessary.

The current regulation provides the following guidelines:

  • Exchanges must be carried out directly between the Agencies or with similar foreign agencies, always guaranteeing confidentiality.
  • Requests must be sent through an electronic document management system that meets security and information protection standards.
  • Each request must detail the reason, the precise information required, and the level of urgency.
  • Information may only be used for the purposes provided and cannot be transmitted to third parties without the sender’s express prior authorization.
  • All exchanges under this regime are considered to have originated from the UIF itself and are covered by the legal duty of secrecy.
