Summary: | As the supervisor of the securities
markets in Mexico, the National Banking and Securities
Commission (Comision Nacional Bancaria y de Valores, CNBV)
has developed a robust supervisory framework that exhibits
high levels of implementation of the International
Organization of Securities Commissions Objectives and
Principles of Securities Regulation (IOSCO Principles) in
many areas. The assessment was conducted during the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank Financial
Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) mission to Mexico during
the period September 7 to September 21, 2011. The assessment
was carried out using the 2003 IOSCO methodology for
assessing implementation of the IOSCO Principles. The most
significant issues regarding full implementation of the
Principles fall under the regulator principles. These issues
flow from two sources. First, there is no specific statute
governing derivatives (whether exchange traded or
over-the-counter (OTC)), nor any other express legislative
provisions that govern the regulation of that growing
market. Second, there are significant weaknesses in the
protections afforded members of the Board of Governors and
staff and with the resources of the commission that lead to
concerns about its independence and ability to carry out its
mandate fully. This report gives summary of discussions on
CNBV acceptance to allow the informal assessment of the
status of implementation of the newly added Principles,
using the guidance provided in the draft revised assessment
methodology as issued in May 2011. |
