Government Intensifies Financial Isolation Efforts Against Nicolás Maduro’s Criminal Network

The Financial Information Unit has issued a series of guidelines to banks, financial entities, and notaries on how to act in these cases.

The Government aims to financially isolate Nicolás Maduro, who began his presidency with 402 political prisoners, including 161 military personnel. In line with the position adopted by the Lima Group and especially the Argentine government’s stance towards the new “illegitimate” term of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, the Financial Information Unit (UIF) has determined that all banks, financial entities, and notaries must report all operations linked to officials and companies associated with the Chavista regime as “suspicious.”

As previously mentioned in this media, the circular — accessed by PERFIL from one of the obligated subjects — establishes that “it is appropriate to alert the Argentine system of Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing about the risks of operating with individuals and legal entities linked to the illegitimate power in that jurisdiction.”

The list includes nearly 100 officials, relatives, and associates, along with 24 state-owned companies, with state participation or linked to officials. The firms belong to sectors such as hydrocarbons, trade, services, construction, and agro-food.

The primary goal is to alert the Argentine system of Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing of the movements of the aforementioned subjects regarding their contacts with Maduro’s “kleptocracy,” which “has led to co-opting power to continue exploiting the population and Venezuela’s natural resources with the primary aim of continuing to illegally enrich themselves personally.”

Secondly, it urges close monitoring of the “declarations of illegitimacy” from other countries and any “risk ratings” that may apply to the Maduro regime, to avoid complicating “correspondent banking relationships.” Obviously, there will also be vigilance regarding possible triangulations that the Maduro regime may attempt to perform to circumvent these international sanctions.

So, what is the procedure to “catch” possible fund transfers?

1) All entities have been asked to apply “enhanced due diligence” regarding the names and Venezuelan companies listed by the UIF. But not only this, they must also look into individuals or firms that have links with potential fund recipients identified by the body led by Mariano Federici and María Eugenia Talerico. Each bank, financial institution, or notary must file a Suspicious Operation Report (ROS) within a maximum of 48 hours.

2) This ROS must list all “goods and/or assets” registered in the name of those listed by the UIF or of the individuals or legal entities connected to them.

3) Finally, they are warned about the risks of conducting operations with Nicolás Maduro’s “illegitimate regime,” without the endorsement of the National Assembly, whose head has been recognized as “interim president” by the OAS. Maduro tops the list of potential recipients of “suspicious operations.” Nicolás Maduro is first on the UIF list.
