Abstract
El presente informe analiza la Resolución SBS N° 00743-2024, derivada de un
procedimiento administrativo sancionador contra la empresa Proyectos y
Construcciones Lugano S.A.C. Esta resolución destaca deficiencias
significativas en la implementación del Sistema de Prevención de Lavado de
Activos y Financiamiento del Terrorismo (SPLAFT) de la empresa,
especialmente en los procedimientos de Debida Diligencia para la identificación
de clientes. Lugano fue sancionada con una multa de 2 UITs y se le ordenó
subsanar las observaciones identificadas en un plazo de 90 días hábiles.
Entre los instrumentos normativos aplicados para el mencionado análisis
destacan la Ley N° 27693, que regula la Unidad de Inteligencia Financiera del
Perú (UIF-Perú), y la Resolución SBS N° 789-2018, que establece lineamientos
específicos para los Sujetos Obligados; ya que, estas normas buscan garantizar
que las empresas implementen controles adecuados para prevenir el uso de sus
operaciones con fines ilícitos.
El análisis concluye que la implementación inadecuada del SPLAFT no solo
expone a las empresas a sanciones, sino que también compromete el interés
público al facilitar el lavado de activos, afectando la estabilidad económica y
financiera. Además, se subraya la importancia de que los documentos del
SPLAFT sean aprobados por la Alta Dirección, dado su rol clave en la creación
de una cultura de cumplimiento y en la asignación de recursos esenciales para
su implementación eficaz.
This report analyzes SBS Resolution No. 00743-2024, resulting from an administrative sanctioning procedure against the company Proyectos y Construcciones Lugano S.A.C. This resolution highlights significant deficiencies in the implementation of the company’s Anti-Money Laundering and Counter- Terrorism Financing System (SPLAFT), particularly in the Due Diligence procedures for identifying clients. Lugano was penalized with a fine of 2 UITs and was ordered to rectify the identified deficiencies within 90 business days. Key regulatory instruments include Law No. 27693, which governs Peru’s Financial Intelligence Unit (UIF-Peru), and SBS Resolution No. 789-2018, which establishes specific guidelines for Obligated Entities. These regulations aim to ensure that companies implement adequate controls to prevent the misuse of their operations for illicit purposes. The analysis concludes that inadequate implementation of SPLAFT not only exposes companies to sanctions but also jeopardizes public interest by facilitating money laundering, thereby affecting economic and financial stability. Furthermore, the importance of having SPLAFT documents approved by Top Management (highest-level managerial authority) is emphasized, given their key role in fostering a culture of compliance and allocating essential resources for its effective implementation.
