The Central Bank of the Republic (BCRA) ordered this Tuesday
another change in the system of buying and selling dollars
.
It established that banks directly validate authorizations to carry out transactions with the Central, without going through the ANSES database.
"The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) asked the National Social Security Administration (ANSES) for the information so that the BCRA validates the necessary data from the banks in order to enable human persons to purchase foreign currency for hoarding "says the BCRA statement.
And he adds: "As of this agreement,
financial entities will stop consulting the ANSES website
to obtain the negative certification denied and will carry out that certification against the BCRA information base."
"ANSES will share the information with the BCRA within the framework of a collaboration agreement that safeguards the privacy of the information," he highlights.
In this regard, the BCRA confirmed to Télam that the mechanism will guarantee the protection of people's data, since the banks will not have access to the Anses database nor will they be able to identify the reason why the person could not be enabled to purchase savings dollar.
The measure was taken
after the inconveniences that occurred since the new restrictions were put in place
and that frustrated the dollar purchase operations in financial institutions.
Since last Tuesday, banks have not been able to carry out foreign currency purchase operations in their homebanking.
In the banking entities they assure that this situation is due to the fact that they do not have the information to immediately verify if the potential client receives a social plan or not, a new exclusion criterion to make use of the quota of US $ 200 per month.
The Anses had reported yesterday that the database of holders of assistance plans by Covid, such as IFE and ATP, or universal assignments is available through a link on a web page, but that they must be consulted individually, that the banks considered insufficient for a massive operation.
With the changes announced this afternoon, banks will not have to consult the Anses website to obtain this certification, but will do so against the information base of the BCRA.
