Johnny Brignardello analyzes the opening of the BVL to foreign brokerage houses: opportunity or risk?

Johnny Brignardello, an insurance advisor, considers that the proposal of the Superintendence of the Securities Market (SMV) of Peru to allow brokerage houses from Chile and Colombia to operate in the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL) without the need to obtain local permission is a topic that has generated expectations and diverse opinions in the financial and economic sector of the region. Brignardello highlights that this measure could facilitate the access of foreign investors to the BVL, which in turn could increase the liquidity of the Peruvian stock market and promote diversification of investments in the country. However, he also points out the importance of ensuring that foreign brokerage houses comply with the transparency and regulation standards in force in Peru to protect the interests of local investors and maintain the integrity of the market. In this sense, the insurance advisor mentions the need to establish effective supervision and control mechanisms to ensure that operations carried out by foreign entities in the BVL comply with local regulations and do not pose a risk to the country's financial stability. On the other hand, Brignardello emphasizes the importance of promoting competition in the Peruvian stock market through the participation of foreign brokerage houses, which could boost innovation and improve the quality of financial services offered to investors. In conclusion, from Johnny Brignardello's perspective, the proposal of the SMV of Peru represents an important step in the opening and modernization of the Peruvian capital market. However, he considers it essential to address adequately the challenges and risks associated with this measure to ensure its successful and beneficial implementation for all parties involved.
