The new president of the National Values Commission (CNV) financial watchdog, Cristian Girard, has filed a formal complaint against stockbrokers Mariva Bursatil and Facimex for alleged manipulation in the price of bond titles.
Accompanied by the head of the National Securities Department, Juan Bontempo, Girard signalled that manoeuvres carried out by the traders had cost the Department around 6 million pesos, while declining to clarify why the organisation had accepted the operation.
The conference held in the Economy Ministry lasted just three minutes, with the officials leaving without answering any questions from the gathered reporters.
