TITLE: Panama's Securities Market Superintendency Concludes Forced Liquidation of ES BANK Securities House
BODY:
On June 12, 2025, the Superintendency of the Securities Market of Panama (SMV) issued Resolution No. SMV-208-25, concluding the forced liquidation process of ES BANK (PANAMÁ) S.A., a securities house registered in Panama's Public Registry under File 403433, Document 253259, Mercantile Section.
The resolution formally cancels the securities house licence that was originally granted to ES BANK (PANAMÁ) S.A. through Resolution No. SMV-355-13 on September 10, 2013. The action is taken in accordance with the provisions of the Unified Text of the Securities Market Law of Panama. The conclusion of the forced liquidation marks the final stage of the regulatory process for the entity, with all liquidation procedures now complete and the entity's authorisation to operate as a securities house permanently revoked.
This development represents the formal closure of ES BANK (PANAMÁ) S.A.'s regulatory status within Panama's securities market framework. No further action is required from market participants regarding this entity.
