The Colombian financial system is based on specialized banking where each financial activity can only be performed by an entity appointed for that specific activity. The system divides into an intermediated sector of banks, insurers, and related services, and a disintermediated securities market sector bringing together entities without professional intermediation. While cryptocurrencies are not prohibited, there is no comprehensive regulation in Colombia regarding their use, status, or tax treatment. Regulations require meeting restrictions on public funds collection and money laundering prevention.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
2. What is the Colombian
financial and securities'
system scheme?
The Colombian financial sys-
tem is based on a specialized
banking scheme, i.e. a scheme
in which every activity from the
financial sector and from the
securities market can only be
performed by an entity espe-
cially appointed to carry out
the corresponding activity, so
that the same entity cannot
provide all the possible finan-
cial sector and securities mar-
ket financial services.
The country's financial sys-
tem traditionally divides into
the intermediated and the dis-
intermediated sectors.
What is the intermediated
sector?
It involves the activities that are
carried out by bank entities,
insurance companies, and sup-
plementary or related service
companies, comprised of:
• Entities collecting public
resources with deposit
or savings products,
which are subsequently
loaned to their clients.
• Financial companies that,
despite obtaining public
savings resources, due to
the nature of their activities
are considered entities
providing services that are
supplementary or related
to their financial activity.
• Entities specializing
in deposits and
electronic payments.
• Insurance companies,
capitalization companies,
and the insurance and
reinsurance intermediaries.
• Special financial entities.
What is the disintermedi-
ated sector?
Commonly known as the secu-
rities market, this is the sector
that brings together all entities
and activities in which no pro-
fessional intermediation exists
among the economy's surplus
and deficit sectors, so that the
former and the latter are direct-
ly supported by the entities that
provide the infrastructure and
the associated services in order
to make direct negotiations.
As opposed to the intermedi-
ated sector, the securities mar-
ket is defined by the activities
rather than the agents partici-
pating in it. These activities in-
clude the following:
• Securities offering
and issuance
• Securities intermediation
• Investment fund
management
• Securities deposit
and management
• Administration of negotiation
systems or registration
of operations related to
securities, futures, options,
and other derivatives
• Securities offsetting
and liquidation
• Risk ratings
• Self-regulation
• Supply of information to
the securities market
123 |
| Bogota's Foreign Investment Guide
In Colombia,
entities have limited
faculties depending
on their nature.
3. What are the main
financial sector prod-
ucts and how are they
obtained?
Credit entities
• Savings and deposits: The
main products are savings
accounts, checking accounts,
term deposit certificates, term
savings deposit certificates,
and electronic deposits.
• Loans: While the bank
entities and the financing
companies can only use
resources received from the
public in order to loan to
the economy’s real sector,
financial corporations may
also invest such resources in
the economy’s real sector.
Financial service entities
Entities providing asset man-
agement services under mer-
cantile trusts or trust accounts.
In the former, the assets' own-
ership is transferred to an inde-
pendent trust for their manage-
ment, while in the latter only
the possession is transferred,
with the client continuing to be
the owner.
• General warehouses:
They provide merchandise
storage services, issue
pledge bonds, and provide
customs intermediation.
They may also offer loans
to cover the expenses
related to such services.
• Pension and severance
management companies:
They manage the country's
pension savings and
severance resources, the
latter being some sort of
unemplyment insurance.
Their investment services
are classified depending on
the risk the saver wishes to
assume, which may be either
low, moderate, or high.
• Exchange and financial
service intermediation
companies: They provide
services related to foreign
currency operations
in the country.
• Insurance companies and
insurance intermediaries:
Entities authorized to
offer insurance coverage
in the country.
Which are the main se-
curity market products
and services and how
are they obtained?
Investments in the securities
market made through a stock-
broker can be made under:
• Commission agreements
(orders are provided by
the investor directly)
• Third party portfolio
management
(investments are made
by the commission agent
according to instructions
provided by the client)
• Securities management.
Bank accounts and
requirements for
opening them
• Checking account: Allows
the client to deposit cash
amounts and checks to a
bank's checking account
and partially or fully
manage their balances
by drawing checks or in
other ways. No minimum
interests are accrued.
• Savings account: No
checks can be received
or drawn; minimum
interests are accrued.
• Electronic deposits:
These instruments can be
offered by loan entities and
specialized deposit and
electronic payment entities.
They allow managing
and keeping balances
electronically and provide
for a registration mechanism
simpler than that of checking
or savings accounts.
• Opening of accounts in
Colombian pesos for non-
residents: Non-residents may
receive on-demand deposits,
in checking accounts, in
savings accounts, electronic
deposits, and term deposits,
in Colombian legal tender,
without having to report
them to the Central Bank.
These accounts may have
a general or exclusive use:
• General use accounts:
Accounts opened for any
purpose, except for loans
in legal currency or for
exchange operations that
have to be channeled,
with some exceptions
| 124 125 |
| Bogota's Foreign Investment Guide
4. such as imports, exports,
and capital investments.
• Exclusive use accounts:
Checking and savings accounts
that can only be used for one
of the following activities:
-- Direct foreign investment
operations
-- Omnibus accounts allowing
to make foreign capital
portfolio investments (i.e.,
in the securities market)
-- Centralized foreign security
deposit accounts
-- Accounts for external loan
operations in legal currency
• Opening of foreign currency
accounts for residents:
Persons living in Colombia and
Colombian residents may open
accounts in foreign currencies.
Resources deposited in such
accounts cannot be used for
exchange operations that
have to be channeled through
the exchange market.
Is the crowdfunding
mechanism regulated?
Decree 1357 of 2018 from the
Ministry of Finances and Pub-
lic Credit regulates crowdfund-
ing, which allows the owners of
small-scale productive projects
(the beneficiaries) to access
funds either through capital or
debt and also allows the qualified
and non-qualified investors (the
contributors) to participate in
such financing.
Investments in such cooper-
ation projects should be made
with specialized platforms man-
aged by the authorized collab-
orative financing entities, under
the surveillance of the Colombi-
an Superintendency of Finance
and responsible for informing the
public of the characteristics of
projects being financed.
The regulation of this
mechanism is progressive
since:
• It allows the beneficiaries
to offer on a large-scale
their securities without
prior authorization from the
Colombian Superintendency
of Finance pertaining to
public security offerings.
• It allows concentrating the
investors and the issuers'
payments without the
platform administrator
having any legal risk of its
activity being considered
illegal, large-scale, and
customary fund raising.
In Colombia cryptocur-
rencies are regulated?
In Colombia, acquiring and
selling crypto assets is not pro-
hibited, unless the buyer or the
seller is subject to restrictions
related to their investment re-
gime according to the author-
ities' orders or regulations. Ad-
ditionally, certain regulations
have to be strictly met, such
as those prohibiting the unau-
thorized collection of public re-
sources or those related to the
asset laundering or financing of
terrorism prevention.
| 126 127 |
| Bogota's Foreign Investment Guide
Limits to investments
and crowdfunding-is-
sued securities
• Non-qualified investors
cannot invest more than
20% of their annual
revenues or their assets.
• Per-project investments
will not exceed 10,000
minimum legal monthly
current salaries
(approximately USD
$2,601,833) should
qualified investors
participate in the
project, and 3,000
salaries (approximately
USD $780,560) per
project, should
nonqualified investors
participate in it.
5. Despite no integral regulation
having been issued in Colombia re-
garding crypto assets, some entities
have made efforts to clarify their
nature. The Central Bank has em-
phasized the fact that crypto assets
are not legal tender, not foreign cur-
rency, not authorized as a means to
perform exchange operations con-
sidered in the exchange regulation,
and cannot be sold or issued by
the exchange market intermediar-
ies, such as the commercial banks.
On the other hand, the Colombian
Superintendency of Finance, the
authority supervising the financial
system, has stated that crypto as-
sets are not securities, in the capital
market's technical sense.
Additionally, the entities,
subject to the above Superin-
tendence surveillance, are not
authorized to keep in their cus-
tody, invest, intermediate, or
operate with them, as well as
not being able to lend their in-
frastructure for activities involv-
ing such types of assets. Finally,
it warns the public in general of
the risks these types of assets
have and stresses the fact that it
does not support them institu-
tionally, as well as the absence
of a legal regulation and of any
official coverage.
From the tax point of view,
the Colombian Tax and Cus-
toms Administration (DIAN),
More information
on this topic
the entity responsible for over-
seeing and controlling proper
compliance with the tax and
customs obligations, has con-
cluded that "virtual currencies
are part of the persons' assets
and may result in revenues be-
ing received".
It is then clear that no author-
ity has reached an agreement
regarding an integral regulation
of the crypto assets issue or
their aspects, either inside or
outside the financial market.
It is evident that the lack of a
general framework does not fa-
cilitate a clear understanding of
crypto asset activities.
