It will continue with the institution’s core areas during 2020.
CMF Chairman Joaquín Cortez stated that “the integration of the administration and support areas strengthens us as an institution and allows us to better watch over the stability of the financial system, especially during this pandemic. Furthermore, it will allow us to serve the public in a much more efficient and timely manner”.
The changes approved by the Board include:
