September 25, 2024 - The Financial Market Commission (CMF) alerts the public about a series of entities offering loans on their websites that are neither supervised by the Commission nor registered in its rolls.
According to background information gathered by the CMF's Investigation Unit, these entities claim to be supervised by the Commission and request advance payments from people applying for loans but who subsequently never receive the agreed funds.
Therefore, the Commission will file charges before the Public Prosecutor's Office for alleged fraud against any parties responsible for the following entities:
- Cooperativa El Bosque, which impersonates El Bosque AFIP S.A. (coopelbosque dot com).
- Administradora Transantiago, which impersonates Administrador Financiero del Transantiago S.A. (administradortransantiago dot com).
- Cooperativa de Ahorro y Crédito Coval, which impersonates Coval Servicios Financieros SpA (cooperativadeahorroycreditocoval dot com).
- Mundo Créditos Chile, also known as Créditos y Financiamientos S.A. (mundo dash cre dot info).
- Cooperativa Financiera Sociedad de Créditos Comerciales S.A., which impersonates Sociedad de Créditos Comerciales S.A. (no identified website).
The CMF reminds about the special alerts page for investors, policyholders, and banking customers available on its website. Interested parties can verify here whether an entity or person offering financial products or services is supervised by the CMF; check alerts issued by the CMF and other foreign regulators on unregulated entities or activities; and other important advice for the protection of investors, policyholders, and financial clients.
