The National Government announced a change in the leadership of the Financial Information Unit (UIF) in Buenos Aires. The new head is Dr. Ernesto Gaspari, a technically skilled official who previously served as Secretary of Coordination and Foreign Planning at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. His appointment aims to consolidate a 'technical and professional management' at the helm of this anti-money laundering unit. Paul Starc, the outgoing head, resigned for personal reasons, which was accepted by the authorities of the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Justice highlighted that the outgoing official performed his duties with 'professionalism,' contributing to the adaptation of the system to international standards. It was also confirmed that Starc will not leave public administration: he will continue to collaborate with the National Government in new roles related to management and financial development. The objectives set for this new stage include: strengthening prevention and control mechanisms; optimizing the use of financial information; and deepening cooperation with national and international bodies.
