On May 2000, in accordance with the GAFI / FATF recommendations, law 25,246 created the UIF and incorporated new types of money laundering crimes. On March 2024, law 27,739 amended law 25,246, introducing certain definitions, such as virtual assets (VA) and virtual assets service providers (VASP) and CNV resolution 994/2024 created the VASP Registry. Although the definition of VA under law 25,246, as amended, was rather broad, by that time, the CNV indicated, through a public announcement, that such regulation would apply to crypto assets. The CNV is the agency in charge of regulating the issuance and trading of securities and other instruments. On March 2025, CNV resolution 1058/2025 expanded the regulations regarding VA and VASP as initially set forth under CNV resolution 994/2024.
