Banking Regulation

With over five decades of experience advising the Peruvian financial sector on transactional and regulatory matters, our team of banking law experts provides comprehensive legal counsel across all aspects of the financial system regulation, addressing its multiple dimensions.

We offer compliance-focused legal advice aimed at the adoption of preventive measures that help clients avoid inadvertent regulatory breaches. We also support our clients during audits conducted by the relevant authorities, with the objective of preventing the initiation of administrative enforcement actions.

We advise a wide range of clients—including domestic and international banks, insurance companies, and fintech companies—on the regulatory implications of their business models, supervisory actions, and other measures imposed by the relevant authorities. Our services include obtaining organizational and operating licenses for entities governed by the General Law of the Financial and Insurance Systems (Law No. 26702) and its complementary regulations, incorporating subsidiaries, and securing regulatory approval for the acquisition of equity interests in regulated entities.

Our team brings a strong track record in regulatory matters  and a deep knowledge of the applicable legal framework, supported by a market-leading multidisciplinary group. Our ability to integrate various legal disciplines, coupled with our understanding of the regulatory authorities’ practices and standards, allows us to develop effective legal strategies to help our clients successfully navigate complex regulatory challenges.
