The Financial Coordination Council (CCF) held its 2026 Third Ordinary Meeting, reaffirming its role as a key coordination body among the regulatory and supervisory authorities of Panama’s financial system.
The meeting offered an opportunity to monitor strategic initiatives, exchange information on institutional progress, and strengthen interinstitutional cooperation in support of the stability and sustainable development of the national financial system.
The session was chaired by the Superintendent of Banks of Panama and President of the CCF, Milton Ayón Wong, who emphasized the importance of interinstitutional collaboration in strengthening the stability, resilience, and confidence of Panama’s financial system.
During the meeting, Council members reviewed the progress made by their respective institutions and discussed strategic matters relevant to the sector. These included the establishment of an interinstitutional working group to support the adoption of the International Sustainability Standards S1 and S2, the strengthening of financial supervision, and initiatives related to the prevention of money laundering, terrorist financing, and the financing of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (AML/CFT/CPF).
In addition, the preliminary project 2026–2027 Strategic Plan was presented, reviewed, and approved by all CCF members. Discussions also focused on the Financial Sector Cybersecurity Strategy, incorporating recommendations from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) aimed at strengthening the cyber resilience of the financial sector.
Through these forums for dialogue and cooperation, the CCF continues to promote initiatives designed to strengthen the regulatory framework and contribute to the stability and sustainable development of Panama’s financial system.
